Rebirth in 1970: I work as an educated youth in a forest farm

After staying in the mountains for nearly three months, Mr. Sheng and Liancheng finally came back for the holidays. It happened to be the New Year's Eve, so they must make something delicious.

Zhang Shuzhen had already planned to make dumplings stuffed with pickled cabbage and pork today.

So last night she brought back some pieces of meat from outside and let Sheng Xikang chop them out this morning.

"Daughter, when the child is asleep, you should also take a nap. Don't worry about things at home. I take care of everything.

When the dumplings are ready, I'll come over and ask you to eat. "

Zhang Shuzhen changed Sheng Xinhua's diaper and put the baby to sleep, then carefully placed it next to Zhou Qinglan so that the two of them could sleep together.

Zhang Shuzhen came out of the west room, quickly opened the sauerkraut jar, and took out two sauerkraut plants from it.

In October, sauerkraut is pickled in a vat and can only be eaten after the full moon.

By now, it has been several months, and the outermost vegetables of the sauerkraut are a bit rotten.

So you have to peel off the outermost layer, leaving the inner part, and wash it twice in the basin.

After washing and drying the pickled cabbage, place it on the cutting board and cut into shreds. After cutting them all, put them in twice, knead them into balls, and then chop them into pieces.

I took out some of the grease stains left by the previous simmering, chopped it into pieces, and put it into the minced meat.

The key to the deliciousness of these sauerkraut and pork dumplings is that there should be some oil in them.

In particular, wild boar meat itself is lean and does not have so much fat. If it is not stained with oil, it will not taste good at all.

Mince the meat filling and oil, then add chopped green onion, salt, monosodium glutamate, soy sauce and other seasonings, scoop out two spoons of the old soup from yesterday's meat frying, stir well, and finally pour the pickled cabbage filling in and stir evenly.

The noodles are ready, the dumpling fillings are ready, and the whole family starts cooking together.

Sheng Xiping kneaded the dough and cut the ingredients, Sheng Liancheng and Sheng Xi'an rolled out the dough, Zhang Shuzhen led the two girls to make dumplings, Sheng Xitai and Chen Feng used the dumpling legs to lay out the dumplings.

Sheng Xikang went to pick garlic and smash the garlic sauce, bring dumplings to the outhouse, light the fire and wash the pot to boil water. Anyway, no one was idle and had work to do.

As a family, how about some dumplings? At three o'clock, the dumplings are ready.

In the kitchen, Sheng Xikang boiled a pot of water and it was boiling.

Zhang Shuzhen came out, holding the curtain, and dropped all the dumplings into the pot with a splash.

"Old Sheng, go and turn off the whip. The dumplings will be cooked in a while and we will eat."

Sheng Liancheng went down early this year, and his whole family was here, so there was no need to wait until five or six o'clock to eat. He had to pack up and eat quickly. How about resting early?

"Hey, I got it, let's go now." Sheng Liancheng responded and walked out with a two-hundred-ring firecracker.

"Boss, don't come out. Go to the West Room and cover your son's ears. The firecrackers will make a lot of noise, so don't scare him."

After all, Sheng Liancheng is also the father of six children. This is where his experience lies. When he saw that his eldest son was about to follow him out, he hurriedly said.

"Oh, isn't it? I didn't even think of this."

Sheng Xiping slapped his forehead. He really forgot about this and hurriedly turned around and went to the west room.

On the kang in the west room, Zhou Qinglan was sleeping with her son in her arms. When she heard someone coming in, Zhou Qinglan woke up. "What happened?"

"It's okay, our dad is going to set off the whip, so let me come over and cover Xinhua's ears." Sheng Xiping said while covering his son's ears with his hands.

At this time, Sheng Liancheng lit firecrackers in the yard.

The firecrackers were bought by Sheng Liancheng from the forest farm store at noon. They were not as loud as the ones bought in advance and placed under the kangqin. The sound seemed a bit muffled.

Even so, Sheng Xitai and Chen Feng were so happy that they stood in the yard and clapped their hands and jumped up and down.

In the west room, Sheng Xinhua seemed not to hear the sound at all and still slept soundly.

"This little guy, the dog outside made him cry. Now that the whip is off, he actually sleeps soundly."

When the sounds outside stopped, Sheng Xiping moved his hand away. Looking at his son's still sleeping face, Sheng Xiping carefully leaned over and kissed his son on the forehead.

"Son, grow up quickly. When you grow up, daddy will take you out to set off firecrackers."

"Well, you don't need to tell me this. When Xinhua gets bigger in the future, all the bad guys will follow you out to do whipping.

Brat, he just loves a whip, he can't be as quiet as a girl. "

Zhou Qinglan started laughing. It was conceivable that there would be another bastard in the Sheng family.

"With his brother-in-law taking care of him, he will definitely be a master at climbing into houses and causing mischief in the future."

Zhou Qinglan felt her head buzzing when she thought of this. It would be better to have a daughter to save her worries.

"For boys, it's normal to be a little skinny.

What did Xiaofeng look like when he first arrived? Look how good it is now for Lao Liu to take care of him. He is skinny, healthy and smart. "

Men and women think differently. Zhou Qinglan was worried about how to take care of children in the future, but Sheng Xiping felt that boys were born with such nature that they should be more lively and out-of-the-box.

Just be naughty, what boy doesn't get into trouble? I remember doing it when he was little.

When Zhou Qinglan heard this, she rolled her eyes at Sheng Xiping. Just as she was about to speak, someone knocked on the door of the west room, "Brother, sister-in-law, the dumplings are ready."

After the words fell, Sheng Yunfang opened the door and came in, holding a plate of steaming dumplings in her hand.

"Sister-in-law, our mother told you that you are still in confinement and cannot eat garlic sauce, so just eat some dumplings."

Sheng Yunfang put the plate and chopsticks on the kang, then turned around and went out.

"The dumplings are ready, you go out to eat quickly. It's already this time, aren't you hungry?"

Zhou Qinglan picked up a dumpling with chopsticks and was about to eat it when she saw Sheng Xiping sitting there motionless, so she asked.

"It's okay. I'll wait until you finish eating and then I'll eat. What if your brat starts crying when you're halfway through eating?"

Sheng Xiping smiled, lying on the edge of the kang, staring at his eldest son.

“Our mother said not to stare at the child all the time.

You go out to eat quickly. Why can’t I eat these dumplings? Do not worry. "Zhou Qinglan asked Sheng Xiping to go to dinner.

Sheng Xiping refused and just sat there without moving. Zhou Qinglan had no choice but to eat the dumplings quickly.

"Well, the dumplings made today are so delicious. Our mother's skill in preparing the stuffing is amazing. They are delicious."

The dumplings stuffed with pickled cabbage and pork were still stained with oil. Taking one bite was really delicious. Zhou Qinglan nodded while eating.

"Here, you eat one too." Zhou Qinglan took one and put it to Sheng Xiping's mouth, letting him eat it.

"You can eat by yourself. I will go back to the east room to eat later. If you eat more, you will feel more comfortable in your stomach than if I eat it. Eat yours quickly."

Sheng Xiping shook his head and asked Zhou Qinglan to eat it by himself.

Not to mention, Zhou Qinglan's appetite has increased since she became pregnant. She could finish a plate of dumplings by herself.

"Well, it's so delicious and fragrant."

As soon as Zhou Qinglan finished speaking, Sheng Xinhua, who was sleeping on the kang, frowned and started to murmur.

When Sheng Xiping saw it, he quickly went over to pick up the child, unbuckled the quilt and reached out to touch it. It was all wet.
