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

Chapter 418 New Year and New Hopes (Page 13)

The Sheng family's house has white and gray walls, which have turned yellow over time.

So after Sheng Xiping and the others cleaned up a few days ago, they repainted the walls and ceiling.

A circle of wall paper was specially pasted on the partition wall and under the window, which is a pattern similar to the large Northeastern flower quilt.

Zhou Qinglan, Sheng Yunfei and the others also cut window grilles and hung money, etc. They put them up inside and outside the house, and they immediately felt like the New Year.

While the adults were busy working, the two children also followed the movement inside and outside the house. Looking at the red color all over the yard, the two children clapped their hands happily.

After finishing these, the family started to get busy with the reunion dinner.

The pigs that were just killed yesterday, the pig heads, elbows, hearts, tongues, and skin jelly are all ready-made.

There is also pork belly with sauerkraut, reheat it, and add some blood sausage to make another dish.

Fang Zirou plans to make braised pork, which is also simple, just cut it and steam it in a bowl.

At the beginning of spring, Zhang Shuzhen caught 20 chickens, a few died, and finally raised about ten chickens.

There were five roosters among them. When winter came, Zhang Shuzhen thought there were too many roosters, so she kept only the most beautiful one, and killed the rest and froze them.

This morning, Zhang Shuzhen took one back from the warehouse and was preparing to stew chicken and mushroom vermicelli later.

In addition, Sheng Xiping led his brothers to dig out the fish caught in the ice cave and stew a random fish, and today's reunion dinner is almost enough.

At around three o'clock in the afternoon, all the meals were prepared, so they were placed in the middle of the field and stood aside.

This tabletop is large and can accommodate more dishes.

Sheng Xiping was busy last year and had little opportunity to go hunting in the mountains, so there was less game on the table this year.

Fortunately, I killed a pig, so the meal was still rich.

Braised pork elbow, braised chicken with mushroom vermicelli, braised fish, sauerkraut, pork belly and blood sausage, sweet and sour pork ribs, soft fried tenderloin, pork belly, pork heart, pig tongue and pork liver platter, skin jelly, pork head meat, and pig trotters.

The last dish was a fruit plate. The apples and pears were peeled, cored and cut into pieces. The hawthorns were washed, cut and cored. The three fruits were placed together and honey was poured on top.

Originally, Zhang Shuzhen wanted to serve stir-fried meat, but Zhou Qinglan said that since they were all meat dishes, she was afraid that everyone would be too tired of eating them, so it would be better to serve a fruit plate, which would be more refreshing.

Zhang Shuzhen thought about it. Anyway, there are still a lot of fruits at home. Let's eat them. If you don't eat them after leaving them for so long, I'm afraid they will rot.

As a result, after the meal started, the most popular thing turned out to be the large plate of fruit.

With the living conditions of the Sheng family, there is usually no shortage of meat to eat, especially now that there is a table of meat on the table, I feel a little unable to eat, and I want to eat two pieces of fruit to clear my mouth.

"Oh, if this table of dishes were kept as usual and just put one or two things on the table, just people like ours would rob them all in no time.

Look at today, everyone is working hard for the fruit. "

Zhang Shuzhen is getting older and is a bit reluctant to eat meat. She prefers mushrooms and vermicelli in chicken stewed mushrooms, or some jelly.

When she saw the fruit plate bottoming out quickly, Zhang Shuzhen couldn't help but sigh.

"Mom, where are you now? Just watch. Life will get better and better in the future. By then, not many people will eat meat on the table, and they will all like to eat vegetables."

Sheng Xiping laughed when he heard this. As living standards improve, people's dietary structure will gradually change.

"Humph, I don't believe that vegetables can be better than meat? Meat is delicious no matter what age. If you don't eat meat, you will get bulging.

Not to mention the past, even in the past few years, it was very difficult for our family to have a meal of meat.

You’ve only had a few good years and you don’t want to eat meat anymore? "

Sheng Liancheng snorted indifferently, stretched out his chopsticks to pick up a piece of soft, waxy, trembling elbow skin, and put it into his mouth, showing a satisfied look.

"Well, don't tell me, this elbow is really well made and delicious."

"Well, well, grandpa is right. Meat is so delicious. I love eating meat."

Sheng Xinhua was the first to agree, nodding and grabbing a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs. “It’s delicious, so fragrant.”

Sheng Xinyu at the other end also grabbed the ribs and gnawed on them. As he gnawed, he said vaguely, "Yes, yes, the meat is so delicious."

The people at the table laughed out loud at the three grandsons.

"Yes, the meat is delicious and fragrant. Our family killed a pig this year. You two can eat it as you like."

Sheng Liancheng became happy and gave the two children some elbow meat for them to taste.

"People of this generation are considered to be born in a heap of blessings.

Look at them, what hardships have they endured since they were born? Fully fed, warmly clothed, and almost everything you want is available at home.

What do we have at that time? Don't talk about us, boss, how many times did they eat meat throughout the year when they were children? "

Sheng Liancheng looked at his two grandsons and couldn't help but sigh.

"Dad, our generation has been working hard to make money for what? Isn't it just to live a good life for future generations?"

Sheng Xiping laughed when he heard this, and poured wine for Sheng Liancheng while laughing.

"Life will get better and better in the future. When you retire, just enjoy it with peace of mind and enjoy it without having to do anything."

Sheng Liancheng picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and then nodded.

"Well, in a few years, the second and third children will graduate and get jobs, get married and have a wife, and the fourth, fifth and sixth children will also graduate. Then your mother and I won't have to do anything and just enjoy ourselves."

It's the Chinese New Year, so naturally you have to say nice things. Sheng Liancheng didn't show any stubbornness to his sons today.

"Come, let us have a drink.

Your father is a rough guy, doesn't know a few words, and has no other ideas in his life. He just hopes that all of you will succeed. That's enough. "

Sheng Liancheng greeted his sons, and the four of them clinked their glasses and took a sip of wine together.

"Dad, don't worry, we will all study hard and never let down our parents' expectations."

Sheng Xikang put down his wine glass, quickly took a bite of food, and then made a solemn statement.

"Yes, parents, don't worry, we will work hard." Sheng Xian also agreed.

"And us, parents, don't worry, we will all study hard and strive to get into a good university."

Sheng Yunfang, Sheng Yunfei, and Sheng Xitai spoke in unison.

"Us, us, and us."

When the two children Sheng Xin Hua and Sheng Xin Yu saw the excitement, they were very anxious, so they also hurriedly shouted.

The two children's meddling made everyone couldn't help but laugh.

Zhou Qinglan looked at the two children dumbfounded, "You two are everywhere, just a little brat, what do you know?"

"Look, what do the people who celebrate the New Year say they do? They are still young, what do they know? They are just joining in the fun." Zhang Shuzhen stopped Zhou Qinglan from talking about the children.

"Xinhua Xinyu, you two must remember what I said today. You must study hard in the future. Learn from your mother, your second uncle and your third uncle. In the future, you will also get into a good university and find a good job."

Zhang Shuzhen is not very educated and cannot explain too profound principles. In her opinion, getting into college is the best way out.

"Yes, we remember it." Sheng Xinhua nodded vigorously and responded loudly.
