Rebirth: the fiery age of Mori Gong's children

Chapter 331 Full Moon Wine

The grandson of Sheng's parents, Man Yue, set up a full moon wine, and all the good friends in 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, 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, there are only a few eggplant boxes and pieces of meat that haven't been fried, it's almost time.

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

It's rare for the in-laws to come here, so how can I let them cook?Standing in front of the stove, Zhang Shuzhen smiled while putting the eggplant box in the ladle.

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 it? I started preparing it yesterday, and everything that needs to be fried and fried has already been done. Today, I just need to add some ingredients and return it to the pot again. 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 noticed it, and had no choice but to go back to the Westinghouse to accompany 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 did her best to cook a table of good dishes.

Stewed anchovies, pheasant stewed hazel mushroom vermicelli, braised pork stewed potatoes, sauerkraut pork, fried eggplant box, sweet and sour pork, 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 rocking car that Sheng Xinhua uses has been around for a long time, it seems to be from the time of Sheng Yunfang and Sheng Yunfei, Sheng Liancheng hired someone to do it.

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 are not so many beasts 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 raising a child in the past, and I didn’t know why, crying all day long, crying as long as I was awake, and it was very difficult to coax.

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.

When Sheng Xikang was around, Sheng Xiping would grow up. 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.

"With the Sheng family's conditions, my grandson didn't suffer from it when he was in his mother's womb. He was born with it, so he doesn't like to cry.

Have you ever thought about how big the child's fontanel will be when we have a child?Whenever a child cries, he or she can see the fontanelle on his head squealing.

If you look at today's children, their head fontanelles are all small, which means they have enough nutrition. "

After hearing this, everyone suddenly realized that, yes, Zhou Qinglan must not lose out to the conditions of the Sheng family.

People have not been shy since they were pregnant, and they eat well during confinement. If their children are well-nourished, they will naturally not make trouble.

Xu Xiuxiang and Chen Xiuzhi secretly noted Wang Chunxiu's words in their hearts. They should be more careful when their daughter-in-law becomes pregnant.Eat more good food, the children will be able to feed themselves in the future, and the adults will have less to worry about.

What is Chinese New Year?

It probably means working hard for a year, and then during the Chinese New Year period, doing nothing but visiting relatives all day long to keep in touch with each other.

You can also live frugally on ordinary days, and wait until the New Year, bring out all the delicious food at home, and let relatives and friends celebrate happily.

The food during the Chinese New Year is good and my stomach is full, so this full moon banquet is not as empty as usual.

Zhang Shuzhen had prepared a lot of each dish, but she just didn't plan enough to add more.

But in fact, only the big sausage guy liked it, so he cut some more and served them, and basically didn't add other dishes.

Of course, it's up to the guests to eat more or less, and the Sheng family is well prepared anyway.

There was enough good wine and good food to eat and drink, and there was nothing much to do during the Chinese New Year. Everyone got together and chatted all over the world, eating, drinking, talking and laughing, which was particularly lively.

The meal lasted for almost two hours, and those who drank in the east room ended up with red faces and stiff tongues.

In this way, some people still feel that it is not enough, and they still want to drink while shouting slogans.

Of course, most people still know how to drink it well, but not drink it down.

Besides, it was really getting late, so everyone who needed to say goodbye got up and went home.

Everyone else had left, but those who shouted slogans and wanted to drink felt bored and staggered home.

The guests were all gone, Zhang Shuzhen led her daughter to clean up quickly, the east room took a long time to eat, and in the end there was basically nothing left on the plate.

The people in the West House are all women, so there is not much food to eat, and there are still some dishes left.

Including those left in the kitchen, it is estimated that there will be no cooking at home for several days.

Sheng Liancheng and Zhou Mingyuan drank both. They were clearing the table over there, and the in-laws were leaning against the wall of the room, laughing.

After Zhang Shuzhen cleared the table, washed the dishes, and returned all the borrowed things, she realized that the two in-laws had fallen asleep leaning over there.

Zhang Shuzhen and Wang Chunxiu were helpless, so they had to take out pillows from the kangqin and let them lie down to sleep.

"These gentlemen, I don't know why they care so little about wine.

?You said that stuff is so spicy, what's the point of it?All of them were drunk and staggering, and I didn’t know what they were trying to do. "

Zhang Shuzhen and Wang Chunxiu went to the West Room to coax their children, muttering at the same time.

The inner and outer rooms had just been tidied up when Sheng Xinhua woke up in the west room.

Wang Chunxiu hurriedly went to help her daughter take care of the child, while Zhang Shuzhen took the opportunity to throw the clothes, quilts and other things that Sheng Xinhua had peed on today into a big basin and add hot water to wash them out.

Wang Chunxiu took a look and reached out to help, but Zhang Shuzhen pushed her back.

"It's just a little bit of stuff, and it comes out in just a few strokes. In-laws, you can chat with Qing Lan for a while. You don't need to stretch your hands to do this."

"You are such a good mother-in-law, and I have nothing to say to you or your children."

Wang Chunxiu returned to the West Room and spoke to Zhou Qinglan who was breastfeeding.

"You have to be nicer to your mother-in-law in the future. She treats you sincerely and doesn't treat you as a daughter-in-law at all.

Don't just rely on yourself to give birth to a son in the first child, and think that you have made meritorious service, and you are instructing your mother-in-law all day long.

I'll help your mother-in-law with these tasks around the house.It is your blessing to have a good mother-in-law, but you must cherish the blessing and don't act recklessly. "

They are all people who live their lives according to their duties, and Wang Chunxiu is also sincerely doing good for her daughter and making plans for her daughter.

This relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is a university question, Wang Chunxiu is worried that her daughter is too young, and she won't be able to handle it well, and when the time comes, the life will be chaotic, and outsiders will laugh at her.

"Mom, I know, I will remember my mother-in-law's kindness to me, don't worry." Zhou Qinglan nodded, agreeing to her mother's words.

Zhou Mingyuan's family came to the forest farm by motorcycle in the morning. As soon as they arrived, the driver drove back to the station.

So the whole family stayed one night, and early the next morning, together with Sheng Xiping, his wife, and their children, they all took a bus from the forest farm to Songjiang River.

After getting off the train at Songjiang Hesen Railway Station, the group of people took turns holding Xiao Xinhua in their arms and returned to Zhou's house first.

After settling Zhou Qinglan and the children, Sheng Xiping and Zhou Mingyuan took their things and headed to the bureau canteen.

The sixth day of the first lunar month was the wedding day of the eldest son of Secretary Zhao Yongsheng, the head of the bureau.

With Zhao Yongsheng's identity, when his son gets married, can there be fewer people coming?

Leaders from various units in the bureau, forest farms under the bureau, other bureaus, as well as relatives and friends of the Zhao family all came to congratulate him.

The public house where Zhao Yongsheng's family lives is two and a half rooms, and the courtyard is not big enough to entertain so many people.

So Zhao Yongsheng discussed with other leaders in the bureau to use the bureau canteen to hold a wedding banquet for his son. It was spacious there.

Of course, they just borrowed the place and manpower. The ingredients for tobacco, wine, sugar, tea, and banquets were all produced by the Zhao family.

Around eleven o'clock, the couple held a wedding ceremony under the auspices of the vice chairman of the trade union of the Bureau.

Zhao Guangning was wearing a navy blue tunic suit with a red flower on his chest and a smile on his face.

The bride wore a red woolen top, black trousers, long braids, and red flowers on her hair.

Weddings these days are very simple, with not so many procedures.

The officiant and witnesses spoke, and then the bride and groom bowed to the portraits on the wall in accordance with the requirements of the host, then thanked both parents, and finally thanked the guests, and the ceremony was completed.

The wedding ceremony is over, and the kitchen is ready to start serving dishes.

The original staff of the agency canteen, plus the helpers hired by the Zhao family, these people carried square plates, walked lightly and vigorously, and served each table very skillfully.

With Zhao Yongsheng's status, there are many restrictions on being too extravagant. In addition, there was a shortage of non-staple food last year, so some things were not available even if there were tickets.

So the specifications of today's banquet, to be honest, are really mediocre, incomparable to the wedding banquets of Sheng Xiping and Chen Weiguo.

Of course, this is already very good in the town, and the guests who came to congratulate him are very happy.

Before the dishes were all served, everyone started eating and drinking. During the dinner, they were drinking, punching, talking and laughing, which was extremely lively.

In the first half of the banquet, the big guys were still eating in their seats, but in the second half, many people started running around, chatting with people they knew, drinking, or toasting the leaders.

Wang Jiachuan, Zheng Xianyong, Zhou Mingyuan, and Sheng Xiping happened to be sitting together.

After looking for an opportunity, the three of them led Sheng Xiping to toast Zhao Yongsheng.

"Old Zhao, congratulations, Guang Ning has found a good wife. Come on tomorrow, if Guang Ning's wife has a fat boy again, you can be promoted to be a grandfather."

Wang Jiachuan knew Zhao Yongsheng very well, and it was not appropriate to call him Secretary on this occasion, so he called him Old Zhao.

"You don't have to worry. In two years, shouldn't your eldest be called daughter-in-law?"

The son's marriage was a great event for the Zhao family, and Zhao Yongsheng was so happy that he never closed his mouth.

Hearing what Wang Jiachuan said, Zhao Yongsheng joked.

"Well, my little bear doesn't even have a partner yet. How do you expect him to get married and take a wife? Maybe we have to wait until what year."

Wang Jiachuan waved his hand and said nonchalantly.

"Xi Ping, you've come here, so I went up to offer a toast to you, Uncle Zhao."

Wang Jiachuan deliberately tugged Sheng Xiping to speak.
