Wang Jianshe's younger brother, Wang Jiancheng, Zhang Zhijun's younger brother, Zhang Zhiqiang, Pan Fusheng's younger brother, Pan Desheng, and others were recruited to work in the collective a couple of years ago and were all assigned to work in the processing plant.
Seeing that they were hardworking and conscientious, Sheng Xiping promoted them to team leaders.
"Okay, then I'll leave the factory to you. I'm going out to look around. If I can find a way to make money, then we can all earn more."
Sheng Xiping patted Zhang Zhiqiang on the shoulder and smiled.
After settling things at the factory, Sheng Xiping went home after get off work.
As soon as I entered the house, I saw my two children, each holding a stick and hitting me, shouting "whoosh, hah!" as they did so.
Goodness, I didn't see them for a second, but they're acting in a martial arts movie.
Sheng Xinhua started attending the preschool class last autumn. Sheng Xinyu is still too young, so the preschool class doesn't want him and he just runs wild at home.
As Sheng Xinyu grows older, he also becomes increasingly mischievous. These two rascals are simply unbelievable, causing trouble everywhere they go. What we're seeing now is nothing compared to this.
"What are you two doing?" Sheng Xiping coughed.
The two children were so engrossed in their fight that they hadn't noticed anyone coming in. When they heard the noise and looked around, they were so startled that they quickly dropped the sticks they were holding.
"No, nothing, just playing." Sheng Xinhua grabbed his younger brother's hand and quickly ran into the house.
Watching the two children disappear into the house in a flash, Sheng Xiping couldn't help but laugh.
These two are always causing trouble, they never stop for a single day.
Sheng Xiping stepped into the house, but heard the dog barking. He had no choice but to go and comfort the dog first.
Now, there are only four dogs left in the house. Erlang Shen and Black General died on the mountain last winter.
When Sheng Xiping was reborn, the two dogs were already over four years old. Many years have passed since then, and the two dogs are now old and can no longer run when hunting in the mountains.
Sheng Xiping felt sorry for the two old dogs, so when Liu Yujiang came to borrow dogs, he borrowed the other four, leaving the two old dogs at home to guard the house.
That very night, the two dogs quietly ran away from the house.
When Sheng Xiping got up in the morning, he found that the dog was missing. He followed the tracks and walked more than ten miles in one breath.
When they were finally found, the two dogs were lying stiffly in the snow, with bloodstains beneath them.
Along with the two dogs, there were also two wolves, who also died.
Judging from the surrounding situation, the two dogs encountered a pair of wolves after entering the mountains. During the fight, the two dogs killed the wolves, but they were also seriously injured and eventually died in the snow.
Sheng Xiping was heartbroken and cried while holding the two dogs. Finally, under a pine tree, he dug through the thick snow and buried the two dogs and the two wolves in the snow.
With the arrival of spring, people in the ginseng fields at Dajianchang were busy with their work, so Liu Yujiang and his brother no longer had the chance to go hunting in the mountains. Therefore, they sent the leopard and the fat tiger back to Dajianchang.
Sheng Xiping petted each of the dogs and coaxed them for a while before going inside.
"Mom, my father-in-law called and asked me to go to the provincial capital with him. There's a timber ordering conference going on in the province."
As soon as Sheng Xiping entered, he saw Zhang Shuzhen busy cooking in the kitchen and casually remarked something.
Zhang Shuzhen, who was cooking, paused for a moment. "Oh, you're going to the provincial capital? Okay, I'll pack your clothes later."
"Will you be gone for a few days? It's probably not warm in the provincial capital at this time of year, is it? Don't be fooled by the spring weather; the wind outside is still quite strong. I'll pack you a few extra clothes; you'd better wear a coat."
"Well, I don't know how many days it will take, but it shouldn't be too long." The order fair will only last a day or two at most.
However, since they rarely make it to the provincial capital, they will inevitably have to visit Zhou Qinglan and Zhou Qingyue, which may take up a day. In addition, the travel time to and from the city will take at least five or six days.
"You're leaving the day after tomorrow? Then I'll stir-fry some meat sauce and boil some salted eggs for you tomorrow."
The other day, Yujiang and the others brought over some wild boar meat. I made some sausage using my own method, didn't I? You can take it with you and send it to Qinglan and her brother.
"It's not easy for the children to study away from home; they're reluctant to spend money on food and drink." Zhang Shuzhen was worried about her daughter-in-law studying away from home, afraid that she wasn't eating well.
When his mother said that, Sheng Xiping suddenly remembered that he should set a few traps. If he could catch a rabbit, he could clean it up and smoke it tomorrow night to give Zhou Qinglan and her brother a treat.
"Mom, you go ahead and do your work, I'm going out for a bit." With that thought, Sheng Xiping quickly turned around, went to the storeroom, found some wire, and hurriedly left.
Sheng Xiping didn't go too far; he set more than a dozen traps around the wasteland and woods behind the mountain.
I don't need a lot, just catching two or three is fine.
After setting the trap, it was getting dark, so Sheng Xiping quickly went home.
When he entered the house again, a table had already been set up in the east room and they had started eating.
"The eldest is back? Hurry up and wash your hands and eat. The other three were in a hurry and didn't wait for you." Hearing the noise from the outer room, Zhang Shuzhen called out from the east room.
The Sheng sisters, Sheng Yunfang and Sheng Yunfei, are taking the college entrance examination this year and are currently in the final sprint stage of their studies.
The school was strict, so the two girls rushed home after school, ate dinner, and then had to go back to school for evening classes until 9:30 p.m. before they could go home.
Sheng Xitai is taking the high school entrance exam this year. He also has evening classes in his third year of junior high, from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
Therefore, Zhang Shuzhen dared not delay the meals at home and had to prepare them in advance every day.
Sheng Xiping responded, scooped water to wash his hands, then went inside, took off his shoes, and got onto the kang (heated brick bed).
When Zhou Qinglan and the other two were not at home, the Sheng family would eat at the kang table.
Everyone else was sitting on the kang (a heated brick bed), while the Sheng sisters, Sheng Yunfang and Sheng Yunfei, sat on either side of the edge of the kang.
