Chapter 176 Killing Pigs

NO.82 in January 17, a small year.

This year's Spring Festival is relatively early, so you don't have to wait until February.

On this day of the new year, the weather was clear and cloudless, and the wind slowed down.

Zhang Qing's family slaughtered pigs today.

The two pigs, the Huazhu sent to the cooperative social mission for money, the black pig stayed to kill, and kept some Chinese New Year meat, and the rest of the neighbors shared the purchase.

At this time, not every family raised pigs, and the supply of non-staple food could not keep up.

The workers in the factory are all from all over the world. Although the locals in the Northeast account for the majority, there are a large number of employees. There are people from all over the country, including college assignments, military assignments, state deployment and land acquisition. work.

Although people from the city don't look down on those who farm and raise pigs, they don't want to mess with them either.Maybe even if you want to do it, it is not that simple to grow vegetables and raise pigs, and it also requires professional knowledge.

And to be honest, raising pigs in industrial areas is more worrying than raising pigs in rural areas. It takes time and effort to prepare just one food, not to mention the need for space.

All Zhang Qingzhi's workmates came if they could.Neighbors in the neighborhood and those at home who have time come to help.

Butchering pigs is a big deal in this day and age.Really big deal.It feels like a holiday.

No one brought the child, and no two people came. It was the man of the family who came.

At this time, everyone is in difficulty, and they will judge others by themselves, and they will not cause trouble for others. Even in normal times, they will never be able to eat the meat in their mouths.

Most of the people who came to help were actually just to buy a piece of meat back after killing the pig.

I don't want to give this first-come, first-served opportunity to others for nothing.A pig is only that big.

It's the Chinese New Year, no matter how careful the family will be, they will prepare some meat.

Set off firecrackers, wear new clothes, eat meat and delicious food that you can't usually eat, this is the year of the child.

Counting the almanac cards every day and looking forward to it.

The adults are enduring hardships, but no matter what they have to squeeze out some money to satisfy the children at this time.

I also hope that the new year has a good look forward to.

The New Year is so grand and solemn, precisely because the common people yearn for a better life.

Later, the days got better, everything was available, and the taste of the year was gone.

The pagoda wood desk that Sun Jiaxin had brought back was carried to the gate of the yard.The table in Zhang Qing's house is made of pine wood and cannot hold up.

The big stove has been set up, and the water in the big pot is steaming.

The black pig, which had long been unable to walk, was tied up, and the four gentlemen were chanting and preparing to lift it out of the pen.

card.

"Fuck."

"Qing Zhi, the bar is broken. This guy, how heavy is this pig?"

"I didn't lift it up, how can I feel it? It must be three or four hundred."

"More than that, three or four hundred sticks can't be broken."

Replace it with two fist-thick tree trunks, and add the number of pig-carriers to eight.Zhang Qingzhi simply removed half of the fence in front of the pigsty, otherwise he would not be able to get out at all.

Eight people worked together to lift the black pig out.

"Slow down, slow down, put it directly on the table. Slow down, put it down slowly."

card.

The newly made pagoda wood table didn't hold up for even a minute and collapsed.All four legs were blown up.

"Take a stone, take a stone, pad it up, don't move, or the table will fall apart. Saleng who holds the knife, come here. Don't loosen it, lift it up."

Those who watched the excitement and waited to buy meat laughed and discussed.

After the pig was released, it was discarded. It was too fat and no one wanted it.But at this time, it is a rare good pig and meat.

Fat is good, oil comes out.When buying meat for non-staple food, you have to carry a pack of cigarettes, begging the meat cutter to cut it for the fat picker.

There is also the delivery of goods. As the old saying goes, what is missing is what you want, and many people just like this.

Seeing the half-collapsed table, a few people half-lifted and half-carried the helpers, and the pig-killer raised his knife and dropped it.Knives in.

"Isn't it stabbed crookedly? Why isn't it bleeding? What is this?"

When the knife was pulled out, there was no blood.

The butcher is also strange.Based on experience, this knife cannot be crooked.

Tried it with my hands, "Take a poke and a bucket, oil, hurry up."

Zhang Qingzhi ran over with a water bowl and handed it under the pig's neck.

Everyone is interested, but I haven't heard of killing pigs and killing oil.

"It's absolutely impossible to raise this pig." The pig butcher lit a cigarette and shook his head with a smile, almost thinking that he had missed.

After taking half a stick of oil, blood came out.

The water also boiled, and the eldest brother of the Sun family said with a smile, "Don't lift it up, just burn it on this table, don't overturn the pot."

Everyone laughed and started to get busy, ironing and shaving.

The butcher cuts the pigs with a knife, removes the pig's head and pig's feet, and roasts them with a red-hot stove.

Take out the internal organs, cut the body in half, remove the ribs and remove the back mound, and cut the pork belly into strips.

The people who were waiting gathered around to choose the location they were looking at and make a purchase.These are the responsibility of slaughtering pigs, including weighing and collecting money.

The owner doesn't know how to get started, so he has to avoid it, so that the neighbors don't talk well, just explain how much they keep and how much they sell.

When the sold part was sold out, the people around dispersed, and the host family came out to ask for help and prepare for the meal.Butcher dish.

Zhang Xingjun watched from the beginning to the end, swallowing his saliva and licking his lower lip from time to time, showing his greed.

Zhang Xinglong peeled and smashed garlic in the house.

With so many people eating, there is a lot of mashed garlic to be used, and the pig-killing dishes have to be dipped in the mashed garlic to taste delicious.

……

After a small year is a big year.

Counting nine winters, it is getting colder every day, and the children's emotions are getting higher every day.

New clothes, meat, fried fruit fritters, candy, firecrackers, things that should never be touched or eaten at ordinary times can be used at this time.

It's even possible to indulge a little: adults are always more forgiving than usual at this time.

The smell of gunpowder smoke began to float in the air, and the smiles on people's faces increased.

Zhang Qingzhi went back to Zhangjiabao, and gave some rice noodles, oily meat and cloth to let the old man have a relaxed New Year.

Zhang Jingyi also raised pigs here, Liu Guixin didn't let them kill them, and the ones with clear soup and little water didn't gain weight at all, so it's better to raise them for another year.

Zhang Yusheng's health is not very good, Zhang Qingzhi is a bit out of his mind, why is he his own father.

After the eldest brother died from a work-related injury, he had less and less contact with his family, mainly to take care of Liu Guixin's feelings. The elder brother in the family really felt sorry for his wife.

But he was always worried about it. He always sent some rice, flour, grain and oil when he came back. Liu Guixin never said anything, he knew it well.

He was angry with himself.

The Chinese New Year is coming, and every household has put down their work and rested for a few days. Liu Guixin did not pick up any more work, and concentrated on preparing things and eating for the New Year.

Winter in Northeast China is like a big natural refrigerator, you can just put everything out, so every family will make a pile of food to freeze, so that it will be hot in the first month, so there is no need to work hard.

It can be regarded as being lazy, taking the opportunity to rest.

It was a rare time for the family to sit together, talk and play poker, which made Zhang Xinglong very happy.

He is very eager to have such a happy talking game with his parents, but unfortunately there are too few opportunities.

Zhang Qingzhi bought firecrackers and came back.You can't move when sending off the gods to pick up the gods, and there is only a little bit for the little brothers.

The three brothers got together and dismantled the only few hundred small whips, and you divided them one by one, and then carried them in their pockets like treasures.

It is also reluctant to put it in the pocket casually. Putting one less than one is just to touch and watch for fun, or to show off in front of children.

Although there are actually all of them at this time, there are always foreskins of different sizes, sizes, or differences.

Then there was a group of children happily looking for things to fry, frying snow, frying ice, and frying everything in the toilet.

Or hurt each other with firecrackers: light them up and throw them at each other.Sometimes it will be thrown into the neck, and it will be so loud that it will cry for father and mother, and it will be beaten when it returns home.
