The archaeological team is divided into two groups: those with experience in tomb-diving and those without. Scholars and professors like Shen Yiyuan, who are only responsible for research, have to pack up their equipment and prepare to set up tents when they arrive at the site.
Those who have family background in knowledge will prepare themselves well and take specific tools to go down and investigate first.
I felt a little envious when I saw the people wearing gas masks and going into battle lightly, while those who were organizing equipment and setting up tents outside.
"Hey, Old Shen, look at this. It's different with skills. It's said that family education is also very important. If I were a teenager when I was young, I would also be willing to learn from them."
Shen Yiyuan just smiled when he heard this. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, many people who originally made a living by stealing wood were persuaded by relevant state departments to join archaeological organizations. Of course, they were all capable people. Later generations passed it down to the next generation. Some taught the younger generation in the family, and some took in apprentices. Of course, without exception, these were all public officials with a regular position.
Looking at people who are well-equipped and holding tools, any man would think it's cool, but without a fine steel drill, you can't take on porcelain work. People with special skills do two jobs. They can explore the way and clear the mechanisms, and they can also look at antiques. Although they have special allowances, Shen Yiyuan still thinks these people should get more. After all, exploring the way is full of dangers.
However, what Shen Yiyuan could never have guessed was that their archaeological excavation this time would be extremely smooth, so smooth that it was unbelievable, because more than ten years ago, two groups of people had helped them explore the way in advance.
At the end of June, all the children who went to school at home had their holidays. Shen Zixi and Qin Shutong, the two oldest children in the families, also officially bid farewell to their junior high school life and were about to enter the high school era with even greater academic pressure.
According to their test scores, the two people who were unable to be together in junior high school are finally going to spend their three years of high school together at Peking University High School.
The main force of this summer trip to the Northeast is the older and younger children. Shen Anyu and Shen Anxuan all have things to do during the summer vacation. It just so happens that the research project of the eldest brother Shen Anyan and the eldest sister-in-law Liu Manxue has come to an end, and the two have more than half a month of vacation. Aunt Shen, Mother Shen, and the eldest uncle and aunt of the Qin family, plus the couple, with eight children, can come and take care of them.
After all, Yuanbao and Tangyuan are only seven months old. The two little guys cannot leave their parents, and it would be heartbreaking if such young children really make a fuss. So this time Grandpa Cao and Grandma Cao did not go, and stayed at home to take care of the twins.
The two little guys, Cao Siheng and Shen Zixuan, were extremely sorry that their younger brothers could not go with them. On weekdays, the people they interacted with the most at home were their wives and two younger brothers.
Chen Zixuan touched the chubby little feet of his two younger brothers, feeling that they were so nice to touch. He also sighed, "Oh, my brothers are so pitiful. They are too young and can't play with us."
Cao Siheng also did not give up and asked again: "Yes, Mom, can't my brothers come with us? I will protect them well, and I also want my wives to accompany me to play."
Shen Anning packed the luggage for her son to take to the Northeast. He didn't need to bring too much food and drinks, mainly clothes and medicine.
Based on her understanding of the naughty kids in her family, changing three sets of clothes a day in Northeast China was probably an underestimation. This was even when her family couldn't stand it anymore and insisted that she change clothes.
"Brother, it's not that mommy doesn't want my brothers to go, but they are too young, aren't they? What if they start crying? Will you go out and play or stay at home to comfort them?"
The fear of being dominated by the twins' crying attacked Cao Siheng and Shen Zixuan's brains again. To be honest, when Yuanbao and Tangyuan cried, they had such a tacit understanding, one after another, and each one louder than the other.
The two brothers looked at each other, seeing fear in each other's eyes, and shook their heads at the same time, "Forget it, the brothers should stay at home with the wives and parents. But brother Zixuan and I will take pictures of them."
Shen Anning noticed the eye contact between the two and knew that the two little guys would say that.
Because Xiao Guazi often lives in Cao's house, he has a lot of clothes at home. It is estimated that he has most of the little guy's clothes. Fearing that the second sister-in-law is busy working in the military factory, Shen Anning packed their clothes in different bags and packed them together.
On the day when she sent her family to the Northeast, Shen An Ning did not dare to let Yuanbao and Tangyuan know. Now that they were grown up, they liked to go out. Even though it was so hot outside, the two little kids' enthusiasm for going out remained unabated.
My cousin and I drove them to the station. The weather was hot, so Chen An Ning prepared mostly fruits and candied fruits for them, as well as some long-lasting dried meat.
"Cao Siheng, I'll tell you one last time. It's okay to go to the Northeast. I understand your curiosity about your first time, but you must be careful. Don't take your brother to the waterside or the mountains. If you go to these places, you must bring your uncle and grandmother with you. Do you understand?"
"Yeah, yeah, I get it, Mom. I will definitely listen to grandma." His mother has said this in his ear more than once in the past two days, emphasizing it over and over again. He is tired of hearing it, but his father also said that he is a man and should be more tolerant of girls.
"Aunt, don't worry, we still have two sisters to take care of us."
Shen Zixuan's words silenced everyone who came to see him off.
Phew.
I don’t know who laughed out loud first, but several adults burst into laughter.
On the contrary, Shen Zixi and Qin Shutong felt embarrassed by Shen Zixuan's words. It was quite embarrassing to have some things said so clearly.
"Okay, okay, go ahead, follow brother Erbao and be careful." After sending his son away, Shen Anning and his cousin's wife and cousin left the platform. If they continued like this, who knows what funny things those little ones would say.
Arriving at the carriage, the boys felt like they were in heaven, because their two sisters disliked them for being too noisy and refused to stay in the same carriage with them no matter what. As the only middle-aged man in the "tour group", Shen Anyan was entrusted with an important task by his mother, aunt, uncle and wife.
Sleeping on the upper bunk with a book in hand, Shen Anyan silently recited the Heart Sutra. The two lower bunks were occupied by six boys, making so much noise that it hurt his ears. The people in the next carriage knocked on the wall several times, but only received three seconds of silence. Then, the shouting continued, only slightly subsiding. . . .
