Chapter 161 The winter solstice, the pig was killed 【Subscription, monthly pass】

Go back to Xiaomian's house.

Xiaomian's mother went to make their beds.

Xiao Mian's father turned on the TV in the living room, made two cups of tea and said, "Wang Rong's family is killing pigs tomorrow, right?"

"Yeah." Ye Mo nodded.

"Three pigs, have you booked yet?"

"It's ordered." Ye Mo said.

"Are your parents free tomorrow? Tell them to come over to play." Xiao Mian's father said with a smile, "Didn't you order three pigs, so you can take one pig's offal and make a pig slaughter feast."

Ye Mo nodded: "My parents should be free, I'll call and ask."

Ye Mo called his father, and when he heard that Xiao Mian's father called them to come and play, he happily agreed.

Lin Xiaomian and her mother were laying the sheets.

"How much did you spend to play in Beihai?" Xiao Mian's mother asked.

"Not much." Lin Xiaomian said.

"Not much, how much?"

"More than 1." Lin Xiaomian shrank her neck and stuck out her tongue.

"Spending so much money..." Xiao Mian's mother glared at her: "I want to go out to play, I don't know how to find a place closer."

Lin Xiaomian giggled, and whispered, "Ye Mo can make money. Besides, I can also make money driving an excavator..."

"You, it's better to save a little. Your dad and I are building houses for others. We can only earn 1 yuan a month. It's not easy to make money. If you can save, save some."

"Know it."

Ye Mo watched TV with Xiao Mian's father for a while.

Lin Xiaomian boiled hot water, came over and shouted, "Dad, don't you burn your feet."

"hot."

Lin Xiaomian made two pots of hot water, one was for his parents, the other was for Ye Mo and Lin Xiaomian.

Wash your face first, then burn your feet.

This water can scald pigskin.

At Ye Mo's house, people basically don't burn their feet at night, they just go to bed after taking a bath.

Their side... Although the distance is not much, the climate is completely different.

I burned my feet and went back to the bedroom.

Lin Xiaomian brought Ye Mo a set of pajamas: "My mother bought it for you."

Ye Mo smiled and changed into pajamas, and curled up under the blanket.The quilt is cold, and it's a bit refreshing... It's so cold, my teeth are chattering.

Lin Xiaomian also shrank in and turned off the light.

After a while, the quilt warmed up.

"What were you talking about with my dad in the living room just now?" Lin Xiaomian squeezed into Ye Mo's arms and asked.

Ye Mo hugged her in his arms and said, "Tomorrow we will have a pig-killing feast."

"Where do we do it?"

"Your house." Ye Mo said with a smile: "My parents haven't been here yet, come and walk."

"Oh." Lin Xiaomian said, taking out her cell phone.

"Don't play with your phone, go to bed early. Otherwise, you won't be able to get up tomorrow morning..."

……

the next day.

Not long after dawn, Ye Mo heard Xiao Mian's mother go into the kitchen to make breakfast.

Waiting for Xiaomian's father to wake up, Ye Mo shook Lin Xiaomian: "It's dawn."

Lin Xiaomian was soundly asleep, she said 'hmm' twice, and then there was no movement.She played on her mobile phone until midnight last night...

Ye Mo ignored her, got up, changed his clothes, and went out: "Uncle, ma'am."

The two agreed.

Xiaomian's mother's breakfast is almost ready: "Has Lin Xiaomian woke up?"

"Wake up." Ye Mo went back to the room as he said, stretched his hands into the bed, pressed the two quilts, and whispered: "Get up quickly. If you don't get up again, your mother will be angry again."

Lin Xiaomian opened her eyes: "Is breakfast ready?"

"It's almost done."

Lin Xiaomian reluctantly got up, put on her clothes, went out with messy hair, and looked like she was not awake.

"I know how to sleep late all day long." Xiao Mian's mother looked at her angrily.

Lin Xiaomian blinked vigorously, went over to fetch hot water, and washed her face: "It's winter, I have nothing to do, why do I get up so early."

"Eat breakfast and go to Wang Rong's house to help press the pig." Xiao Mian's mother said, "Can you be more diligent every day, you are already an adult, and you are still like a child all day long."

In the morning, there is an egg soup, as well as fried rapeseed and shredded potato.

While I was eating, I heard the hooting of pigs in the distance.

"I started slaughtering pigs so early." Lin Xiaomian said while eating.

"It's eight o'clock, and only you think it's early."

have eaten.

Ye Mo and the others went to Wang Rong's house...

It was foggy again today, foggy and hazy, with extremely low visibility.

Wang Rong's house is a courtyard house with a bamboo forest outside.

This early in the morning, there are more people in the bamboo forest, and they are killing pigs here.

In the bamboo forest, there are temporary earthen pigs, as well as special platforms and shelves for shaving and bleeding pigs.

"Xiao Mian, Ye Mo." Wang Rong looked at the butcher, saw them coming, and shouted: "Third Uncle, Third Aunt."

Several people nodded.

"Your son-in-law is here." A tall and thin man shouted.

Lin Shan nodded with a smile, and said to Ye Mo, "This is Wang Rong's father...you should call him Fourth Uncle."

"Fourth Uncle." Ye Mo shouted.

Wang Jian responded with a smile.

Xiao Mian's father introduced other people to Ye Mo...

Ye Mo then took out the cigarettes and handed one to each of them.

A big fat pig has been slaughtered, followed by a second one... Both of them have been reserved by people from the same village.

Ye Mo and the others came earlier, and from the third start, it was Ye Mo and the others.

Butcher the pig, let the blood out...follow it up, shave it...then hang it on the rack, and then process it.

The pig butcher is from their village. He looks about fifty years old and is a professional pig butcher.

The professional pig butcher... has lost his job.

Now there are special slaughterhouses for killing pigs.Moreover, in the current rural areas, most households no longer raise pigs.

Go forward 15 years, let alone every household in the countryside, at least 20% to [-]%... Push forward another [-] years... Based on Ye Mo's knowledge, it seems that every household raises pigs.

Anyway, Ye Mo remembered that when they were young, every household had pigs.

When Ye Mo was in elementary school and junior high school, he would go out to hunt pigweed after school.

Up to now, there are not many families raising pigs in rural areas.

In some places it is not allowed to raise pigs.

However, their side, including the former Dongmen Town, did not prohibit raising pigs... But there are very few people who raise pigs.

In Changzhu Village, there is no prohibition on raising pigs, but it seems that no one has seen anyone raising pigs.Even if there is, most farm pigs eat feed.

The big fat pigs in Wang Rong's family are all fed with fodder, sweet potatoes, and corn bran. They started raising them after the new year and have been raising them until now...

Their family has a special pig shed in the bamboo forest next to the house.The pig shed should be able to raise 9 to [-] pigs, but now there are only [-] big fat pigs.The other pigs should have been sold in advance.

Now these pigs weigh about [-] catties.People who have raised pigs should know that it is most cost-effective to sell pigs when they are in the early [-] catties.

It's not worth raising three hundred catties.

These are big fat pigs that were saved for the New Year, and they were all ordered by people nearby, so they only raised about [-] catties.Such a big fat pig is delicious, but the price is more expensive than the meat on the market.
