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

In the blink of an eye, seventy-six years passed and seventy-seven years came.

On January 1st, New Year's Day, little Xinhua was born for one year. Of course, the birthday is calculated according to the lunar calendar, not the solar calendar.

Since there is a leap month in August this year, it will be about ten days before Xiao Xinhua’s birthday.

People these days don't pay much attention to the Gregorian calendar year. Office staff in field departments work half a day and have afternoon off.

The logging workers on the mountain didn't even leave for half a day. They just ate better in the evening. The canteen provided big steamed buns stuffed with sauerkraut and pork.

If it had been left to the past, the Sheng family wouldn't have cared much.

Conditions have become better in the past two years, especially since Zhou Qinglan got married and Sheng Xinhua was born on New Year's Day.

Although Zhang Shuzhen didn't say anything, she had been busy making delicious food since the morning.

In the afternoon, the family made dumplings stuffed with cabbage and pork.

In the evening, Zhang Shuzhen led her son, daughter-in-law, daughter, and grandson to sit around the table.

In addition to dumplings, there are four dishes on the table: braised pork, braised pork ribs with pickled cabbage, stir-fried roe deer meat, and dry-fried tenderloin.

"Come on, everyone, sit down. Today is the Gregorian calendar year. Although your father and your second son are still on the mountain, we should celebrate the holidays at home.

We have dumplings and vegetables tonight, so you can eat whatever you want.

Mom is very happy that you have made progress in your studies, and I hope you can continue to do so.

At the same time, I also have to thank your sister-in-law. Without her watching you review and giving you questions, you would not have such good results. "

Zhang Shuzhen has never been to school herself, so she pays special attention to her children's learning. Nothing would make Zhang Shuzhen happier than her children getting first place in the exam.

No matter what wind is blowing outside now, in the Sheng family, in the eyes of Zhang Shuzhen, nothing is more important than studying and being educated.

Therefore, Zhang Shuzhen is particularly happy that the children have done well this time.

I made wontons on the day the results came out, and I made a bunch of delicious food today just to reward the children and to thank Zhou Qinglan.

"Thank you, sister-in-law, aunt." After hearing Zhang Shuzhen's words, the children shouted in unison.

"We are all a family, why are you grateful? As long as you can study hard and be successful in the future."

Zhou Qinglan smiled. Although he had only been a teacher for two years, Zhou Qinglan liked this job very much and also liked getting along with the children.

She teaches conscientiously and conscientiously at school. When she comes home, she watches her brother-in-law and sister-in-law study. The children's results make her feel very accomplished.

"Come on, let's eat quickly, the food is almost cold."

Zhou Qinglan smiled and served vegetables to her mother-in-law, and then took a piece of ribs to Sheng Xinhua in front of her.

Sheng Xinhua, who has been twelve months old, can now sit and eat by himself.

This baby has a strong skin and a strong mouth, and eats everything deliciously.

The ribs were stewed to a pulp. He sat between his mother and grandma, holding the small bowl in one hand and gnawing the ribs in the other.

His mouth was full of oil when he gnawed it, and some of it even rubbed on the little scarf he was wearing.

When babies learn to eat, these are unavoidable. Zhang Shuzhen never takes care of the children because of this. They always let the children eat by themselves. At worst, they wash themselves after eating.

Anyway, Zhang Shuzhen has made several small breast protectors like this, so let’s wear them interchangeably.

After finishing the ribs, Sheng Xinhua grabbed two more dumplings to eat.

Everyone saw that Xiao Xinhua was eating well. This one got a piece of braised pork, and that one got a piece of fried tenderloin. The bowl in front of the little guy was filled with people of all ages.

Xiao Xinhua didn't even say anything, he just ate it if someone pinched it.

In the end, it was Zhang Shuzhen who spoke up, saying that Xinhua was not allowed to eat any more meat because he had eaten too much, so everyone stopped using their chopsticks.

There were dumplings and four hard dishes. Everyone was quite satisfied with this meal.

In the end, Sheng Xitai and Chen Feng were so full that they touched their round bellies, waved their hands, and stepped aside.

Sheng Xinhua was also full. He imitated his uncle and brother, touched his belly, and climbed to the side to play.

Everyone here had almost finished eating. Sisters Zhou Qinglan and Sheng Yunfang quickly packed up and washed the dishes.

Zhang Shuzhen also went to help with the work, cleaning up the leftovers, dumplings and so on.

Sheng Xiping sat on the edge of the kang, took a ball made of wood, and played with his son.

Sheng Xiping deliberately rolled the ball to the edge of the kang, and then asked Sheng Xinhua to pick it up and give it to him. This was a small game that father and son often played.

Usually, when Sheng Xinhua picks up the ball, he always uses his hands and feet to crawl back.

Sometimes the little hand can't hold the ball, and it doesn't know where it has rolled. He will look for it again, and he can play like this for a long time.

But today, after Sheng Xinhua picked up the ball, he held it with both hands and stood up from the kang.

Then, I saw the little guy move forward slightly, and then moved his other foot forward again.

Sheng Xiping opened his mouth in surprise at this time. He didn't expect that his eldest son would leave.

When the baby was less than ten months old, he could walk while holding on to the wall, but he never dared to let go.

Unexpectedly, this baby would leave without making a sound.

Sheng Xiping didn't dare to say anything for fear of scaring the child, so he stepped forward with open arms and clapped his hands while guiding his son to walk forward slowly.

Sheng Xinhua looked at his father, giggling happily, while continuing to lift his legs forward, walking slowly step by step.

Although the little guy walked for the first time, he walked very steadily, walking towards Sheng Xiping step by step, and finally came to Sheng Xiping and handed the ball to Sheng Xiping.

"Oh, my great son, you're actually leaving." Sheng Xiping picked up Sheng Xinhua and kissed her son's tender cheek.

"Mom, daughter-in-law, our Xinhua Club is leaving." Sheng Xiping hugged his son and shouted towards the outhouse.

"What the hell? Xinhua will leave? It's not even his first birthday yet." Zhang Shuzhen had just packed up the remaining dumplings, and as soon as she heard her son's words, she immediately walked into the house.

"How did he leave? Did you support him?" Zhang Shuzhen asked her son with a not-so-good face.

Sheng Xiping looked at it and was quite puzzled. Isn't it a good thing that the child is gone? What's wrong with mom? Doesn’t it look like you’re unhappy?

"No, I didn't support him, I just stood up and walked away. Is there anything wrong with this thing? Did you say something?"

Sheng Xiping glanced at his mother and asked tentatively.

"It's okay. The child will learn to walk too early. If you walk early, you will be tired later."

When Zhang Shuzhen said "tired", she said it in three sounds, "tired", which means that life is difficult and unsatisfactory.

"Boy, you have to leave after your birthday. Xinhua's birthday hasn't come yet, ugh. I'm afraid of this, so I don't dare to cut off his stumbling ropes."

The stumbling rope is said by old people in the past that before a child is reincarnated, his feet are tied with a rope. If he wants to learn to walk, he has to cut the stumbling rope.

Some people hold a knife or scissors behind their children while they are standing, and try to chop or cut them, which is to cut the stumbling rope.

It is said that if the stumbling rope is cut, the child will leave.

"Mom, look at you, I thought it was something. Did you forget that there is a leap month in August this year?
