Years: Salted fish life since going to the countryside.

Chapter 321 Killing Pigs

Han Li didn't expect that Wang Chunhua would call him to stop him, let alone that she would invite him to her house to have a drink and recognize the family?

I have already entered this door by myself. I have even sat on the kang head of your house for a while. Is there any need to recognize the door?
"What a coincidence, there is still something waiting for me to go back to the clinic. I already know the door of the house. When I have time next time, I will definitely come to ask for a glass of water."

"Alas, Educated Youth Han."

After Han Li finished speaking, he turned around and left. When Wang Chunhua shouted from behind, he just waved his hands.

Han Li turned the corner and didn't go far, when he encountered
Captain Liang's voice came from the loudspeaker of the village committee.

"Hey. Hey, all the members of the community are paying attention. Today is the 21st of the twelfth lunar month, and there are only two days left before the new year. Therefore, our village has decided to kill the pigs tomorrow morning and divide the meat in the morning."

Captain Liang's voice caused a lot of commotion in the village. To be honest, everyone was waiting for the meat to be divided the day they handed in the mission pig in the village.

Although the gentlemen of Shanghe Village can find some meat from the mountains, those things don't have much fat after all, and even if they get wild boars, they are not as delicious as domestic pigs.

And the pork in the village is distributed according to the head, the more people in the family, the more pork will be distributed.

Don't look at everyone's life is quite poor now, but they will not be sloppy during the Chinese New Year, not to mention Shanghe Village, which is a pretty good village, even in those villages where life is very tight, even the life at home No matter how hard we usually live, we will try our best to make our family eat better during the Chinese New Year, hoping that the coming year will have a good sign.

The so-called mission pigs are a kind of policy. For example, if the village committee raises four pigs in total, it must sell two pigs to the state. Only in this way can the village committee slaughter the remaining two pigs to be considered legal.

In addition, if the pigs sold to the country are less than 120 catties, the higher authorities will not accept them, and of course they can if they exceed this catty.

Village head Zhao and the others handed over the pigs in advance after they raised enough catties, and provided all the saved things to the remaining pigs in the village, so that the pigs belonging to the village could be fattened up, and the villagers could share more meat.

Another reason is that the price of live pigs purchased by the higher-ups is not high, and it is not worthwhile to distribute the money to the villagers after selling them to the higher-ups.

(This situation later changed to allowing individuals to raise pigs, but it also needs to sell half of the task pigs, but only accepts full-faced pigs, not half-headed pigs.)
It wasn't just the villagers who were discussing this topic, the news also caused waves among the educated youth.

The old educated youths almost knew what was going on in their hearts, but the new educated youths didn't understand it.

They cheered for a while when they heard the news that the meat would be divided, so they asked people how much meat each person could get, so that they could figure out how to use the meat.

There are two old educated youths, Qi Ruying and Yuan Hongying, on the side of the female educated youths in the educated youth courtyard. Meng Zaihong didn't need to go out to ask, she could only lie listlessly on the kang.

Zhang Yaozu also got this fact from Zhang Xiangjun, and Hou Yuhua first knew about it when he was playing cards at Han Li's house.

Only Hou Yuhua's roommate Zhang Shulan, when she heard what was said in the loudspeaker, she also felt that she should inquire about it, rubbed her hot face, and carefully hid the thin book she was reading , Finally, I checked to make sure that my roommate would not find out, and then I patted my chest and walked out of the house.

When Han Li walked to the door of his house, he just ran into Zhang Shulan who came to inquire about the news.

"Comrade Han."

"Comrade Zhang, I don't see you going out very often. Is there something wrong with you?"

It was a normal greeting, but the little girl's behavior was a bit strange. Her face turned red just after Han Li said a word, which was a bit inexplicable.

"That... I want to inquire about what happened in the broadcast just now."

Han Li looked at Zhang Shulan and thought to himself, could this person be blushing because of being able to divide the flesh?

But if she thought this way, she might be disappointed. Han Li told her the news he had heard before.

The rules of meat division in the village are like this, old educated youth Han Li, sisters of the Yun family, He Mi, Qi Zhaodi, Hao Hongmin, Yang Xiuying, Zhang Xiangjun, Wu Lili, Qi Ruying, Yuan Hongying and others who have participated in this autumn harvest and have work points can participate in the meat division.

But Zhang Yaozu, Yan Weimin, Xu Yongjian, Hou Yuhua, Zhang Shulan, Meng Zaihong and others came late, and those who didn't have any work points could not participate in this meat division.

Zhang Shulan's face became less red after hearing this, she said thank you to Han Li coyly, turned around and went home.

This action fooled Han Li again, thinking that this girl must have been bored in the room, and she remembered that she was not like this before.

Although Han Li had doubts in his mind, he was not a troublesome person, so he ignored them.

But he didn't know that this question would be solved on his own initiative next summer.

Early the next morning, a cauldron had been set up in front of the village branch, and the firewood underneath was burning very vigorously.

Everyone in the village who had nothing to do came over, even the new educated youths came over.

One of them did not give up and wanted to ask the captain why he didn't give it to him, and the other was of course just to watch the fun. They had never seen this scene of killing a pig before.

When Han Li and the two sisters came, Yan Weimin and Xu Yongjian walked away from Captain Liang with dejected faces, and vaguely heard Village Chief Zhao say something.

"There is no such thing as getting something for nothing in this world, so the rules are the rules."

Captain Liang made arrangements for those who killed the pigs, those who caught the pigs, those who boiled the water, those who shed the hair of the pigs, and other helpers who were nearby.

With the cry of the pig "嗤嗤嗤", the slaughtering of the pigs and the division of the meat has officially begun.

The pig seemed to know that it was going to be killed, so it screamed more fiercely, but its screams attracted more people to watch.
Some children went up to play by pulling their ears and pulling their tails, but they were all scolded back by the adults with a smile.

This time is different from the last time when the wild boar was cut up. Several people tied the pig first and then pressed it to the chopping board.

After the knife holder waited for the basin holder to prepare, the foot-long knife in his hand pierced the aorta of the pig's neck accurately.

The blood sprang out immediately, and the basin's sharp hands quickly caught the blood column, and the basin was placed on the ground as the blood flow weakened.

After the blood was gone, pots of boiling water were poured on the pig.

The person who was arranged to shed the pig's hair touched the temperature and the softness and hardness of the pig's hair with his hands, and then took a knife and a plane to start shaving.

After the scraping was done, the pig was hung up, and all the internal organs of the disemboweled pig fell into the basin.

The rest of the process is similar to that of the wild boar, except that the pig's head is treated roughly this time.

Others didn't know what was going on, but Han Li knew, so he whispered to the sisters about the function of the pig's head.

There are many legends about this point, and some rumors can even extend to the Song Dynasty.

But the real reason is that on February [-]nd, the pig's head is burned, and the year is over after eating the pig's head.

The land will also gradually start to thaw. Everyone has to put away the lazy bones of the winter and start preparing for spring plowing.

Thanks to everyone's efforts, the pigs were quickly cleaned up, but this time it was different from the last time the wild boars were distributed.

Last time everyone didn't care too much about fat and thin, but this time it won't be.

Everyone who celebrates Chinese New Year wants a piece of good meat and fat meat, and no one wants to get those bad parts.

And the village cadres didn't intend to be scolded years ago, so this time the meat was divided by drawing lots.

Convert the packed pork, pig offal, big bones, pork ribs, and pig blood into a certain ratio, and calculate the amount to be divided by each person after weighing.

Arrange them one by one on the chopping board, and pick them up from a designated direction.

In the end, everyone came forward to draw lots one by one, and no one can go back on whoever gets the lottery. Even if you get the one with the most bones, you can only blame your own bad luck.

In this relatively fair situation, everyone received their share, and only a few newly arrived educated youths watched helplessly.

It was almost twelve o'clock after the pork was distributed. When everyone walked back with their own meat, the more meat they got, the more meat they got. When they walked with the meat, they were different from others. .

The educated youths were all in the same direction, so everyone walked back together. At this time, Qi Zhaodi walked up to Han Li and said.

"Brother Han, do you want to eat bacon? I am very good at making bacon. The bacon can be stored for a long time. You can cut a few slices and put it in every stew, so that a pot of dishes will have a meaty taste." It’s a pity that I didn’t get any intestines, otherwise it would be more convenient to make sausages.”

Although Han Li had no shortage of meat and didn't like the way of eating it like sprinkled with sesame seeds, he still wanted to accept Qi Zhaodi's kindness.

"Okay, then I will entrust you with the meat we got."

After Han Li finished speaking, he thought that Qi Zhaodi was practicing stick every day, so he said something in a low voice.

"My friend still has some meat in two days, please help me to make it then."

As soon as they finished talking, they saw He Mi pulling Hao Hongmei to come over, and whispered when they got to the side.

"Han Li, Miss Yun, how about we have dinner together tonight?"

"Of course, it just so happens that we haven't been together for a long time."

After Han Li agreed, the Yun family sisters quickly chatted with He Mi and the others about how to eat this evening's meal.

Han Li never participated in this kind of topic, so he was a little behind two steps, and talked with Zhang Xiangjun and the others.

Before he had gone far, Wang Chunhua chased him from behind.

"Han Zhiqing, the old man of Tie Zhu's family asked me to ask if you still go to his house for an injection today?"

Han Li looked at Wang Chunhua who was carrying the meat in her hand, but Zhang Kanying was not around her.

"Go, wait for me to go back to the clinic to get the silver needle and go there. Didn't your guy come out during such a lively scene of dividing the meat?"

"Now he goes up the mountain to cut firewood every day, and doesn't come back until very late."
