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

Sheng's parents and grandchildren were all over the moon, and there was a full moon wine table. All the close friends from the forest farm came one after another.

At around eleven o'clock, Liu Changde and his wife, brothers Liu Yujiang and Liu Yuhe, and the Qi family from the alkaline field also came over.

Fortunately, the east room of the Sheng family was large, a room and a half, so when there were many people coming, they would sit on the kang.

It's rare for people to get together during the Chinese New Year, and it's extremely lively as everyone talks and laughs.

Sheng Xinhua woke up at around nine o'clock and played with her grandma and grandpa for almost two hours. Now she felt a little sleepy and started to talk.

Zhou Qinglan saw that his son was going to sleep, so he carried him back to the west room, urinated, fed him, and put him on a mattress to put him to sleep.

When his grandson fell asleep, Wang Chunxiu asked his daughter to stay and watch. She went to the kitchen to wash her hands and help Zhang Shuzhen.

"My dear, is there anything else you need to do? Just tell me and I'll do it."

"Oh, no need. It's almost done. Only the eggplant and the meat are left. It's about to be fried.

Come in and take a rest, there's nothing for you to do. "

It’s a rare occasion for the in-laws to come over, so where can I let them cook? Zhang Shuzhen stood in front of the stove, putting the eggplant box in the horse spoon and smiling.

Wang Chunxiu walked around, but it seemed that there was really nothing she could do to help.

"My dear, you are so slow at work. There are several tables and seats, and they were all prepared so quickly."

"Where is that? We started preparing it yesterday. What needs to be fried and fried has already been done. Today we just need to add some ingredients and put it back into the pot. It's simple.

In-laws, please come in quickly. This outhouse is full of fumes and it's really choking. "

Zhang Shuzhen had to pay close attention all the time when she was frying things. She couldn't spare the time to chat with Wang Chunxiu.

Wang Chunxiu also saw it and had no choice but to go back to the West Room to be with her daughter and grandson.

Zhang Shuzhen's side quickly exploded the eggplant boxes and meat pieces.

At this time, there are only a few stir-fried vegetables left. It should not be cooked too early. It is best to serve them right after they are fried.

It happened that Sheng Xiping took his younger brother and friends out to borrow tables, dishes and other household items.

So Brother Sheng Xiping set the table, Sheng Yunfei and Sheng Yunfang washed the dishes, and then brought the dishes into the room.

There are a lot of people coming to the house today. There is a table in the east room and a table in the south and north kang respectively, and another table in the middle aisle.

Then there was a table on the Kang in the west room and another on the floor. There were five tables in total, and they were all seated on the ground.

For today's full moon banquet, Zhang Shuzhen tried her best to prepare a table of delicious dishes.

Stewed anchovies, pheasant stewed with hazel mushrooms and vermicelli, braised pork and potatoes, braised pork with pickled cabbage, fried eggplant box, sweet and sour pork segments, stir-fried venison, skin jelly, pork elbow, sausage and pork liver platter.

No more, no less, exactly ten dishes, perfect. Moreover, they are basically all hard dishes, not vegetarian.

"Well, I was short of time and couldn't cook a few more dishes. Let's just make do with it. There's still plenty in the pot. If it's not enough, add more."

When the last dish was brought to the table, Zhang Shuzhen said to everyone with a smile.

"Oh, sister-in-law, is this just a makeshift meal? Our family has never had such a good meal during the Chinese New Year." When everyone heard this, they all laughed.

This is the truth. If you want to find a better life than the Sheng family in the Erqianchuan Forest Farm, there is really no one.

The key is to raise a good son who has abilities. These things cannot be bought with money.

"Sister-in-law, you have been busy for a long time and you are quite tired. Come sit down and eat." Wang Jiachuan greeted Zhang Shuzhen.

"It's not busy. You guys can eat first. I'll go to the West Room with Chunhong and the others.

Lao Sheng, Xiping, you are in this room, have a good drink with everyone. There is enough wine today, so open it up and drink. "

Zhang Shuzhen came out of the east room with a smile, added some water to the pot, put the pot curtain on, and put the steamed buns she had picked up from the warehouse outside in advance into the pot to heat up.

After finishing her work, Zhang Shuzhen took off her apron, went to the west room, sat down next to Tao Chunhong, and invited everyone to eat.

During the Chinese New Year, relatives and friends gathered together happily, and they were entertained with good meals and dishes. Everyone was chatting and laughing, not to mention how lively it was.

"Sister-in-law, your little grandson is really rare. With so many people talking to us, he still sleeps so soundly and motionless. It's great."

Tao Chunhong turned her head and looked inside the Kangshao cart, and said with envy.

There are three big monsters in the Northeast. Raising a child and hanging him up is one of them. It refers to a child sleeping in a cradle.

The cradle is also called a cradle by the locals. It is usually made of birch wood. The two ends are slightly tilted, and a rope is tied to the top and hung from the beam.

When the child cries, he shakes the car and hums a few songs.

In the past, the environment in the Northeast was harsh and there were many wild animals. Even wolves dared to enter the village in broad daylight.

If women had any work during the day, they would put their children in the car to avoid being harmed by wild animals.

The rickshaw used by Sheng Xinhua is quite old. It seems that Sheng Liancheng found someone to make it during the time of Sheng Yunfang and Sheng Yunfei.

Because they were twin sisters, they were made slightly wider than usual so that the two children could lie apart. Later, Sheng Xitai also used this.

After Sheng Xinhua was born, Sheng Xiping found the rocker, packed it up and hung it on the beam.

Of course, this is a new house in the Sheng family. The bricks and tiles are solid and the windows are sealed in winter.

Besides, there aren’t that many wild animals now, let alone entering the village.

The main thing is to comfort the children, especially today, when there are guests at home, a lot of fire was burned in the two pot pits for cooking, and the kang was so hot that it burned my buttocks.

In this case, you cannot put the child on the kang, as it is easy to spank the child, and the child's butt will be red by then, which is too painful.

So after Zhou Qinglan put her son to sleep, she put the child in the car.

The little guy was sleeping soundly inside. No matter what the people in the room said, he would not wake up.

Zhang Shuzhen also looked back at the car, and then smiled, "Yeah, I didn't expect him to be so worry-free after confinement.

It was a bit noisy in the first few days. The dogs at home could not bark even twice and just cried. I had no choice but to send all the dogs to Sister-in-law Liu's house to keep them. "

Zhang Shuzhen gave birth to six children, and she had seen many children from other families, but there were very few who were as worry-free as Sheng Xinhua.

I remember how I used to raise a child. I didn’t know how it was. I would cry all day long, whenever I was awake, and it was very difficult to comfort me.

At that time, there was no one to take care of the children, and there was a lot of work at home. While we were working, the children started crying on the kang.

There is no other way, so I have to carry it. Carrying the child on his back and working at the same time.

This is how Sheng Xiping and Sheng Xian grew up on Zhang Shuzhen's back when they were young.

By the time Sheng Xikang was born, Sheng Xiping was older. As soon as Zhang Shuzhen got busy, she handed over the second and third children to the boss.

Sheng Xiping was only six or seven years old. He was holding the second child in front of him and the third child on his back, rocking and coaxing him.

"In the past, the main reason was that living conditions were not good. Women could not eat anything nutritious during pregnancy or childbirth. The children themselves lacked nutrition and became quarrelsome after birth."

Over there, Wang Chunxiu, as an obstetrician and gynecologist, gave an authoritative answer.
