Chapter 10 Family
Sheng Xiping dropped these words, turned around and went to wash his hands, not caring about the sad little eyes of his younger brother behind him.

On the other side, Zhang Shuzhen suppressed a smile, opened the door of the west room, and called the second and third children out for dinner.

"Hey, you two don't read books, the lights don't turn on at night, and your eyes will be damaged."

When Sheng Xi'an and Sheng Xikang heard their mother's greeting, they put down their books, left the west room, and went to the east room for dinner.

On the kang in the east room, there is a rectangular kang table.

The head of the family, Sheng Liancheng, sat in the innermost position on the other side of the kang, his wife Zhang Shuzhen was on the left, and the two daughters were outside.

The old lump Sheng Xitai was on Sheng Liancheng's right, followed by Sheng Xiping, Sheng Xi'an, and Sheng Xikang.

Sheng Liancheng is from Qilu, and his hometown is in Shancheng. The Sheng family has a small land and many children, and life is difficult for the family.

In [-], a relative of the Sheng family worked as a worker at the Sanchazi Forest Industry Bureau, saying that life was easier there.

Sheng Liancheng took the money borrowed by his old lady, and came to the Northeast by car.

When I arrived in the Northeast, I recruited workers and arranged to work in a forest farm under the Linjiang Forest Industry Bureau.

Linjiang Forest Industry Bureau is the earliest forest industry enterprise developed here. Its predecessor was the Linjiang Branch of Tonghua Lihua Forestry Company during the Japanese Puppet Period.

After the fall of the RB Devils, it was renamed the Linjiang Branch of the Anton Forestry Bureau in [-], and later renamed the Linjiang Branch of the Liaodong Forestry Bureau.

In [-], it was changed to Linjiang Forest Industry Bureau, and in [-], it was renamed Linjiang Forestry Bureau.

The forestry development in those years belonged to the construction and production, and the development along the forest railway.

The same is true for forestry workers. Wherever the cutting area is, the workers will work there.

After finishing this work area, move to the next work area.

Sheng Liancheng went from Linjiang Bureau to Dashahe Forest Farm, then to Manjiang Forest Farm, moved to Shuguang Forest Farm in [-], and moved to the innermost Qianchuan Forest Farm in [-].

Qianchuan Forest Farm is very close to the Changbai Mountain Reserve, and it is the latest to be developed. There are rich forest resources here, and it is the largest forest farm on the northern line.

Sheng Liancheng has worked on the forestry front for many years. He started as a forest clearing worker, worked as a tractor assistant, a chain saw operator, and a tractor operator.

Up to now, he is the leader of the second forestry team and also the director of the small repair factory, which is considered very powerful.

Zhang Shuzhen and Sheng Liancheng are from the same place. It should be said that among the forestry workers, most of them marry their wives from their hometown.

There is no way, the northeast forest area is vast and sparsely populated, and these workers do not see a woman all year round.

They all take advantage of the opportunity to visit relatives in their hometown, talk about a daughter-in-law, bring them here from their hometown, settle down, and have children.

At that time, all the young people who worked as workers outside and returned to their hometowns wearing "recycled cloth" overalls were the focus of everyone's attention.

No matter how tall, short, fat or thin, or ugly, as long as you are a worker who earns wages and eats from the national treasury outside, you can get a tall, handsome wife when you return to your hometown.

Sheng Liancheng has worked in Northeast China for four years, and finally found time to go back to his hometown to visit his parents and relatives.

When the old lady of the Sheng family saw her son came back, she hurriedly told her son that she would marry a daughter-in-law.

Just after being introduced by someone, I met Zhang Shuzhen.

The two saw each other right when they met. Sheng Liancheng bought a sheep for Zhang's family and gave him a few dozen dollars, which was considered a marriage agreement.

After a few days, the two went to the village to obtain a marriage certificate, and got married in the new house that Sheng Liancheng sent back money to build for their parents.

Not long after their marriage, the couple set off and returned to the Northeast.

From then on, Zhang Shuzhen, like other daughters-in-law, took root in the northeast forest area with her husband, had children and took care of housework.

Sheng Liancheng and his wife had four sons and two daughters.

The two of them don't have much culture, they just think that the child can be safe and healthy.

It just so happens that the children of this generation are ranked according to the word Xi, and the first three are named Sheng Xiping, Sheng Xi'an, and Sheng Xikang.

There were many children in that year, and after three sons were born one after another, Zhang Shuzhen became pregnant again, and it looked like two daughters when they were born.

The daughter's name was given by the elementary school teacher with the help of it, and it was not ranked by Greek.

It happened to be spring when the child was born, the season of Tao Li Fang Fei.

So the teacher named the two girls, Sheng Yunfang and Sheng Yunfei.

In the end, Lao Piada was born, and he was named Sheng Xitai by someone else.

So far, the four brothers of the Sheng family, Ping An Kangtai are all together.

Sheng Xiping looked at the family of eight in front of him, and the memories of his previous life were rolling in his mind, and he couldn't calm down for a while.

"Second brother, how is your school doing recently? Are you tired from studying?"

Sheng Xiping took a deep breath to calm himself down, then picked up the vegetables with chopsticks and put them in his brother's bowl.

"Brother, studying is very interesting and not tiring."

Sheng Xi'an raised his head, smiled at his brother, then lowered his head and continued to chop the rice.

At the beginning of June, there are actually not many edible vegetables.

Wild vegetables such as mother-in-law, shepherd's purse, celery, Cantonese vegetables, and monkey legs are out of season, that is, cabbage, radish, chrysanthemum, and spinach in the vegetable garden.

On the dining table of the Sheng family, there was a small pot of chrysanthemum chrysanthemum in sauce, and a small pot of stewed tofu with Chinese cabbage.

In addition, there are some water radishes, radish sprouts, lettuce, green onions, a bowl of homemade miso, and that's all.

At any rate, there was a lot of oil and oil stains in the stewed tofu with cabbage, that is, the oil residue left over from oil refining, which tasted quite delicious.

It was still winter when the oil was stained, Sheng Xiping followed his master into the mountains and killed a blind man, and when he came back he shared a lot of fat for refining.

The grain and oil for the employees and their families depend on the supply, and the monthly supply of oil is not enough for a family of eight to eat.

Zhang Shuzhen lived her life carefully, and she was not willing to give the children a few pieces of oil stains, so she directly mixed them with the oil and put them in the jar, saving them for cooking.

What Sheng Xitai, that little greedy cat, loves to do most is stealthily take chopsticks and eat oil stains from the oil jar while there is no one at home.

These dishes all need oil and water in spring, and when the children are growing, Zhang Shuzhen has to carefully weigh the dishes.

It happened that the oil in the pot was almost at the bottom, and there were a lot of oil stains, so I put a few extra pieces in the stewed tofu with cabbage tonight.

Sheng Xiping ignored the eager eyes of the old lump, and put the last piece of oil into Sheng Xi'an's bowl.

"Eat more, your eyes are tired from reading and studying, you must eat some oil and water."

"Well, well, I see, thank you bro."

Sheng Xi'an, who was dull and not good at words, could only nod repeatedly, and then continued to eat with his head down.

Sheng Xiping looked at his second child and couldn't help sighing.

Sheng Xi'an loves to read and study, and his grades have always been very good when he was studying.

When the college entrance examination resumed in [-], Sheng Xi'an also signed up, and he was admitted to Tonghua Normal University.

Ordinarily, Sheng Liancheng came from a hard background, and has been rated as an advanced model several times over the years of work, so there should be no problem.
