Chapter 144 Kill the New Year Pig
According to the customs of previous years, after the twelfth lunar month, you can start killing the pigs.

Grandpa Shen had been optimistic about the date before, planning to kill pigs on the nineteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, but because of Yang Yanhong's matter, he was delayed for a few days.

This delay came to the 25th of the twelfth lunar month.

In the morning, when the sky was getting bright, Wang Weidong, Zhou Dingwei and others brought a few young men to help butcher the pigs.

Every year when pigs are killed, neighbors help each other.

The two pigs in the pigsty were fat and strong, and four or five strong men could hardly stand up.

Wang Weidong smiled and said: "Uncle, the pigs in your family are really well raised. The two pigs add up to four or five hundred catties. There are only a few people in your family. Can you finish eating?"

Almost every household in the village raises pigs. At the end of the year, one pig is killed for meat, and the rest are sold for money.

It is rare for the Shen family to kill two pigs. After all, one pig can be sold for thousands of dollars.

Grandpa Shen explained with a smile: "Xiaohua and his siblings both love to eat bacon, they marinated so much last year, but they couldn't eat it until the end of the year.

The old woman felt sorry for the children, and said that this year she simply killed the two pigs so that the children could eat enough. "

It is rare to see people in the village who love their children as much as the old couple. Wang Weidong smiled and said nothing.

Zhou Dingwei said: "Our family also killed two new year pigs this year, and the bacon alone has marinated almost 300 catties."

Wang Weidong was stunned, "How much have you eaten?"

Zhou Dingwei smiled and said, "If you can't finish eating, you can sell it. I calculated it. It's much more cost-effective than selling live pigs."

Live pigs cost only ten yuan a catty, but the price of marinated bacon can be doubled several times.

In the past two months, Yang Yanhong and Shen Qiuqiu bought bacon in a big way in the village, and many people in the village made a small fortune by selling bacon.

Everyone has tasted the sweetness, and this year they have cured more bacon than in previous years, and they all look forward to making another good fortune.

Only then did Wang Weidong come to his senses, he patted Zhou Dingwei on the shoulder and said, "You young people are still so smart."

……

In the kitchen, the women are also busy.

To prepare a meal for slaughtering pigs, her family alone would definitely not be able to handle it. Grandma Shen also invited Wang Weidong's wife and Zhang Guiju to help.

The two also came early in the morning, and they were already helping to choose dishes.

Shen Qiuqiu sat in front of the stove and lit the fire.

Grandma Shen heard the movement in the yard, took a look outside, and reminded Shen Qiuqiu: "Xiao Hua, you can go back to the house."

The picture of killing a pig is too bloody, Grandma Shen never lets her two children watch it.

Of course, Shen Qiuqiu himself didn't dare to look at it.

She handed the tongs to Grandma Shen, asked Shen Xiu to help shoot the material, and then hid in the room.

After a while, heart-piercing howls of pigs came from the yard, and the howls were terrible.

Shen Qiuqiu covered her ears, still having lingering fears.

Song Na laughed at her, "Sister, you are too timid."

Shen Qiuqiu covered her ears and pretended not to hear.

Song Na lifted the corner of the curtain, looked at the situation in the yard, and said softly, "However, this pig screams so badly, it makes me feel uncomfortable..."

Shen Qiuqiu didn't feel very well in her heart, but pork is so delicious, you should eat it...

When Shen Qiuqiu came out of the house again, the two big fat pigs had already been chopped into pieces.

There was a burst of burnt aroma in the yard.

Zhou Dingwei was sitting by the fire to burn the pig's head and trotters, mainly to burn off the unshaved pig hair on the skin.

Grandpa Shen and Wang Weidong were unloading the meat with pick knives.

Pig head, pig tail, tenderloin, pork belly, large ribs, small ribs, front legs, hind legs, etc. must be separated one by one to facilitate subsequent marinating.

Cleaned woven fertilizer bags were spread on the ground, and the unloaded meat was placed all over the yard, which was quite spectacular.

Shen Qiuqiu took out her mobile phone, took a photo and sent it to the [Taoyuan Three Sisters] group.

[Zhizhi Taotao Qiuqiu: [picture]]

[Zhizhi Taotao Qiuqiu: Haha, I feel like I am in a meat joint factory. 】

[Zhizhi Taotao Qiuqiu: The pig-killing rice in the countryside is really delicious, but it's a pity that you can't come. 】

Today is Sunday, but because of the Spring Festival holiday, we need to make up work this weekend, so neither Li Mao nor Zhang Meng can come.

The group quickly responded that it was Li Mao who was deeply resentful.

[Li Mao: You can eat more for the two of us. 】

[Li Mao: Hey...it's still free to be a boss, you can skip work at will to eat pig-killing rice, unlike us little shrimps who have to make up shifts on weekends. 】

【Li Maung: [Water Noodle Tears.jpg]】

Shen Qiuqiu didn't understand.

[Zhizhi Taotao Qiuqiu:? ? ? 】

[Li Mao: Just now, colleagues from the HR department complained in the small group that the big boss didn't come to work today, and everyone is guessing why he went today...]

[Li Mao: I was thinking that I should go to your house to eat pig-killing rice. [smirk]]

[Li Mao: Hey, you two are progressing very fast. It's only been two weeks, and you've already met your parents. 】

[Li Mao: Can I change my name to Boss? [bad laugh][bad laugh][bad laugh]]

[Zhizhi Taotao Qiuqiu: ...]

Although they have been in frequent contact on WeChat recently, the relationship between the two has not made much progress, and they are still in the stage of friendship.

Moreover, the identity of the blind date is too sensitive, how could Shen Qiuqiu invite him to dinner at home so easily.

but--

Just because you didn't invite yourself doesn't mean others didn't.

Shen Qiuqiu found Grandma Shen who was busy in the kitchen, and asked obliquely, "Grandma, who did you invite over for dinner today?"

Grandma Shen was too busy to kill the New Year's pigs at home today, so she replied without raising her head when she heard the words: "Just the ones that are close to each other in our village."

Shen Qiuqiu breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Jincheng didn't go to work, it must be something else.

There are small crispy meats fried in the pan, and the whole kitchen is filled with a smell of meat.

Shen Qiuqiu sniffed, and couldn't help but feel a little greedy, so he picked up the chopsticks on the stove and picked up a piece of deep-fried crispy yellow meat to eat.

The crispy meat just out of the pan is golden in color, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

One bite, the mouth is full of fragrance, and it is a little hot.

Shen Qiuqiu breathed a few breaths with his mouth open, which made Grandma Shen laugh, "Eat slowly, no one will grab you."

Shen Qiuqiu ate it to her heart's content, took another piece of crispy meat and handed it to grandma's mouth, "Grandma, you should try it too, it's very delicious."

Grandma Shen opened her mouth to take it, and after tasting it, she was full of praise.

"Well, it's delicious. It's better than last year's. Your aunt Manxiang taught me this method. I replaced the flour with sweet potato flour. They said that the crispy meat fried in this way is more crispy and fragrant. It's true."

Shen Qiuqiu found a plate from the cupboard and put two plates of fried crispy meat on it.

One plate was served to Li Cunju and the others who were choosing vegetables, and the other plate was ready to be served to Grandpa Shen and the others.

Grandma Shen called her to stop, "Go to the vegetable field and help me pull out some radishes, and I will use them to stew the big bones later."

"okay."
