I am many years in the courtyard

Chapter 201, meat and flashlight

The neighbors turned a blind eye to the two bean geese next to the wild boar.

Because it's only about six catties, it's too small, and everyone just didn't see it.

In other words, he has already been attracted by the wild boar, how can he still have the bean geese in his eyes?

In the age without oil and water, everyone's desire for lard was very great.

Birds like bean geese obviously don't have much fat, and they can't be compared with wild boars.

Many years came back with a bucket, ready to help scald the pig.

When he was in the mountains, after Bullet shot and killed wild boars, he bled two wild boars for many years when cleaning up the battlefield.

Therefore, there is no need to worry about the loss of pork meat due to lack of bloodletting.

Pork without bloodletting will have a lot of residual blood in the meat, so the meat without bloodletting is naturally delicious.

Kang Daotong also rolled up his sleeves and wanted to help deal with the wild boar hair, but Lao Xu and the others didn't dare, so they hurriedly asked him to sit in the house.

But he said that he hadn't killed a pig for many years, so he wanted to experience the feeling of the past.

Without any explanation, he pushed Lao Xu aside, picked up the knife and began to shave the wild boar.

"During the war before, it was rare to eat a bite of meat, and he was still the sharpshooter in the team at that time."

Mentioning these, Kang Daotong was in high spirits.

The Niannian family next to him, as well as the neighbors watching nearby, all listened carefully to what he said in the past.

Even though there were many people present who were older than Kang Daotong, Kang Daotong had participated in the War of Resistance, the War of Liberation, and the Northern Campaign. It can be said that he had rich combat experience.

"lead."

"Brother Tong, I told you not to call the leader at home, why don't you always listen?"

Being robbed by the other party for a while, he smiled for many years, and continued:
"Brother Tong, I remember that you are only in your 30s? How did you participate in the Anti-Japanese War?"

This era is still based on the term of eight years of the Anti-Japanese War. After all, before the War of Liberation, it was always ruled by the Kuomintang, so the term "eight years" is used.

This statement refers to the fact that after the July [-]th Incident in [-], a full-scale war broke out until the surrender of the little devils in [-] years.

However, in real terms, the War of Resistance began in [-].

Therefore, it should be 14 years of the War of Resistance, not the eight years of the War of Resistance.

But no matter which way it is said, it has not been born for many years.

When Kang Daotong heard this, he stared and said:

"I am 15 years older than you, and I was 15 years old, that is, I joined the army in [-]"

Hearing the other party's words, after many years, he quickly figured out that Kang Daotong should be 36 years old this year.

Old Xu and the others couldn't help being shocked, he joined the army at the age of 15, no wonder he is now a leader.

However, so many people have become soldiers, how many people have become leaders?

It is even lucky that many people can recover their lives alive, let alone become leaders.

The neighbors listened enthusiastically, and gradually realized that the leader Kang Daotong was not as serious as he appeared on the surface, but a very down-to-earth leader.

A bold neighbor has already asked:
"Leader, have you really gnawed on tree roots before? It's been so hard, how did you survive?"

After looking at it for many years, it was Liu Guangfu, a little kid, and I couldn't help but mourn for him.

With Liu Haizhong's personality that loves to be a leader, if his child contradicts the leader so much, a slap in the face must be inevitable.

It's already past five o'clock in the evening, almost six o'clock.

The sun was about to set, and when Lao Liu, who was wandering outside, came back, knowing this, Liu Guangfu would definitely suffer.

Kang Daotong just glanced at Liu Guangfu, then said lightly:

"Don't talk about gnawing tree roots, gnawing dirt, drinking water, etc., what difficulties have we not experienced?"

"How did you get over it? What else can you do if you resist and carry it over?"

It's easy to say, but in fact, without strong willpower, you can't survive at all.

Neighbors comforted each other and spoke nice words of praise, and Kang Daotong also responded warmly and with a smile.

The atmosphere is very harmonious.

At this time, the two wild boars had already been shaved clean, and the next step was to disembowel and separate the meat.

The more this time came, the more greedy the neighbors became.

However, each family still called their children away.

With Kang Dao at his side, none of the neighbors dared to cause trouble.

Even, in order to avoid suspicion, Kang Daotong would not mistakenly think that our neighbors have been greedy for pork for many years, so he hurriedly evacuated.

Everyone disappeared quickly, which has not been surprising for many years.

But nothing was said.

I happened to meet Kang Daotong in the afternoon, and the reason why he offered to ask the other party to help transport the wild boar back was not only that his bicycle was really difficult, but also because of the current situation.

In addition, I just want to ask about the pockmarked human trafficker yesterday.

He hates traffickers, that's right.

However, he will not completely ignore it.

You know, human traffickers usually commit crimes in gangs, who knows if there are other gangs in pockmarked face at the scene?

Although there were many people at that time, the armband team came very quickly.

But it is hard to guarantee being targeted by gangs of human traffickers, so I have to ask for many years.

Although this time I was somewhat impulsive and violated the principle of Gou Dao.

However, if he is clinging like a turtle, then he would rather not live so uselessly.

In life, there are many places that need to be compromised, but he does not want to, nor is he willing to compromise on some things that he has brooded about in the past.

What's more, he believed that Kang Daotong would not let him down.

Two wild boars were quickly processed.

After many years of estimation, the meat yield of this big wild boar weighing more than 200 kg is about 60.00%, which is relatively gratifying.

And the ratio of fat to lean is only a little lower than that of ordinary domestic pigs, and there is still quite a lot of fat.

There are 220 three catties of wild boar in total, and 130 eight catties of meat are divided.

The meat yield and fat-to-thin ratio of the smaller wild boar were much lower, with only 48 jin of meat and very little fat.

This is also understandable, after all, the little pig is still growing meat, and the fat has not yet grown.

After the meat is ready, the 48 catties of meat need to be divided.

Half of the remaining 130 eight catties of meat were marinated with salt, and the other half were directly minced for enema to make sausages.

There are four women in the family, Zhou Hongmei, Hu Meifeng, Fan Zhaodi and Qin Huairu, plus the four old Xu father and son, as well as San Xiaozhi and Xu Wumei, so this work can definitely be completed in one night.

However, the most important thing right now is to make dinner, and then eat the pig-killing rice first.

Take out ten catties of meat from the little wild boar, and fry it that night.

Counting Kang Daotong, there are 13 people in total, and each of them can barely get seven taels of meat, which is not too small.

Five catties of braised in soy sauce, and the remaining five catties of sliced ​​fried cabbage and stewed potatoes. Tonight's meal is considered a luxury.

After cooking, everyone sat around the living room and ate together.

However, there are not enough stools.

So San Xiaozhi, Xu Wumei and the others shared small plates and sat on a small wooden stool in the kitchen to eat.

Many years brought out two bottles of wine and said with a smile:

"Brother Tong, this is the glutinous rice wine I brewed at home last time. The alcohol content is not high, so drink it as it is."

Kang Daotong heard the words, but his eyes were sharp, he stared at the two bottles of glutinous rice wine and said:
"Hey, I haven't had glutinous rice wine for a long time, come here, let's make a glass and try it first"

Here, Kang Daotong was not polite at all, having helped pour wine for many years, and just drank a glass.

Then he praised endlessly:
“Awesome, very similar to the glutinous rice wine I drank in the south, sweet and delicious, the key is not intoxicating”

"Haha, I'm so happy. For many years, you did the most beautiful thing today."

With these two bottles of glutinous rice wine, the start is very smooth.

Three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

Without waiting for many years to bring up the pockmarked face, Kang Daotong took the initiative to say:

"The person you threw to me yesterday used some tricks, and it took us a while until this morning to recruit him. We took over an old nest in the capital."

"I've confirmed it, all of them have been caught, and no fish slipped through the net."

"So, are you relieved, kid?"

It's not the first time the two have dealt with each other, so they have a relatively clear understanding of each other's temperament.

Kang Daotong knew very well that he was afraid of trouble for many years, but the latter was also a person with a very sense of justice and principles, that was such a contradiction.

But it is precisely because of this strong contradiction and sense of incongruity that it is really many years.

He is also a promising young man that Kang Daotong can't figure out.

Since it is impossible for many years to enter the relevant department, Kang Daotong tried to choose the way of 'cooperation' without giving up the invitation.

After all, before the founding of the People's Republic of China, there were similar guerrillas and militias that were incorporated but not organized.

There are past examples to refer to, so Kang Daotong will not violate discipline or other things if he does this.

What's more, a red heart has been very red for many years, so what is there to worry about?

"Haha!" There was embarrassment for many years, but it was quickly covered up with laughter.

"Thank you, brother, it's all in the wine, I respect you."

Kang Daotong watched the other party get bored, smiled and shook his head.

Then he drank the wine in the quilt in one gulp.

I drank the wine, ate the meal, and had a good chat. That's all for today.

Before leaving, many years took twenty catties of pork to the other party.

But Kang Daotong didn't want it, and said:

"You know I don't lack these, and you also know what I lack."

Just one sentence left nothing to say for many years.

Indeed, what the other party needs is talent, not 'twenty catties of pork'.

He is a leader, how could he lack this food and drink?

Seeing the other party's jeep disappear into the night, Many Nian smiled wryly and went home with the pork.

At home, Lao Xu and the others are busy chopping meat, cleaning the casings, and working together in a very orderly manner.

Seeing him coming in with pork, Zhou Hongmei couldn't help but said in surprise:
"San'er, didn't you give the pork to the leader? Why did you bring it back?"

Everyone has been watching for many years, but their expressions are different.

Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi were secretly happy, because in this way, the two of them would get more meat.

Unfortunately, they think too much.

There are many people who need to divide their meat for many years, and they have to be delivered before tonight and tomorrow morning.

"Brother Tong doesn't want it, I can't give it away, what they want is not pork, but me."

He smiled wryly, and seeing everyone looking at him suspiciously, he pointed to his brain again:

"To be precise, Brother Tong is interested in my ability, which is this brain."

"Otherwise, they wouldn't take the initiative to help me."

The whole family was stunned. Xu Xiaoman and Xu Weidong didn't quite understand, but they nodded in understanding.

After the explanation, he said for many years that he was going to deliver pork, and I left it to everyone to make sausages.

Zhou Hongmei waved her hand and said:
"Go and come back quickly, we can leave this place to us, by the way, bring a kerosene lamp and be careful."

It's a big problem to see the road because of the dark lights outside.

The brightness of the kerosene lamp is also average, but it is better than no lighting at all.

I don't have a flashlight at home because it's expensive and the batteries are expensive.

Compared with flashlights, kerosene lamps are much cheaper. In addition, family members do not need to go out at night frequently, so flashlights are not needed.

As early as [-], the country's first flashlight factory was established in Baiyun in the south, which was Tiger Head Flashlight.

Later, because of the war, the flashlight industry in the Baiyun area withered, and it was not until the victory of the Anti-Japanese War that the dead trees were rejuvenated.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, there were more than 20 manufacturers of flashlights in Baiyun, the largest of which were Guangdong Heji Hardware Products Factory and Dongzhou Flashlight Factory.

Later, like many private enterprises, in the early 50s, 11 electroplating factories and 4 welding factories including Guangdong Hutchison Metal Products Factory and Changan Metal Products Factory merged to form Guangdong Torch Factory.

Most of the flashlights in the capital are produced in the south.

Families that don't have the need generally don't buy flashlights.

Many years nodded, took the remaining 38 catties of pork and kerosene lamps, turned around and went out.

Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi opened their mouths wide when they saw this scene.

Here, all the pork is taken away?
The pig offal, except for the pig small intestine, the remaining pig liver, large intestine, etc., were taken to the neighbors in the courtyard.

Except for the Jia family who didn't get it, almost every family has it, even the families of Aunt Wang and Aunt Sui.

The tense relationship between the Jia family and the family for many years was well known in the yard.

It has been helpless for many years to use pigs into the water to stop the mouths of these neighbors so as not to be gossiped.

Neighborhood relations in this era are like this, but unlike later generations, who lives next door is completely unknown, and they have not even met each other several times.

But the neighbors in the 50s, except for the tense ones, most of the neighbors can actually get along peacefully.

When I was reborn many years ago, in No. 95 courtyard house, most of them were beasts, most of them were selfish.

But even Liu Haizhong, who wanted to be a leader, Xu Damao, who was selfish, the old man who couldn't decide what to do next, the silly Zhu who fights and cooks, Yan Bugui, who is careful about budgeting, etc., are just stuck in the adversity of the times. Surrounded by the storms of life, full of the vicissitudes and unwillingness of life, he is just a poor person who passively accepts the judgment of fate.

However, after in-depth contact, these poor people are just the epitome of the times.

For many years, he didn't ask these people to help him, but he just asked them not to provoke him.

He went to the mountains to hunt and kill two big wild boars, and the news has already spread to several nearby courtyards.

If he doesn't even want to get out of the pig's water, it won't take long for the title of stingy to become a new nickname for many years.

Don't underestimate the nicknames of this era, many times it is because of these bad things.

Therefore, it will be done for many years.

In my previous life, in the 90s and [-]s, some people in the village hunted and killed wild boars.

People who are too stingy will eventually be disliked by others and gradually divorced from the masses.

When there was a meeting of the whole house or something happened to his family, these neighbors would not only not help, but would even stand on the sidelines.

There is a saying that there are many people who make trouble, but there is no one who gives charcoal in the snow.

When Ji Chungeng knocked on the door for many years, his family was chatting in the house, and there were guests.

"Director, I went hunting in the mountains yesterday. There are two wild boars. I'll bring you some pork."

With a simple explanation, the five catties of pork in his hand was handed over.

Seeing the pork handed over for many years, Ji Chungeng took it subconsciously. Director Wang had already invited the former to come in and sit down.

"Director Wang, I won't bother you, come back another day, let's go first."

Come and go in a hurry, the fight is speed.

Looking at the back of many years away, Ji Chungeng came back to his senses, so much pork?
Behind them, their family also froze for a moment.

Five catties of pork is quite a lot, and it's quite heavy to hold in your hand.

Ji Chungeng's neighbor also exclaimed, the pork is quite fatty, it is the best pork belly.

"Xiao Xu is a really nice guy. He knows how to send you any good things, old man, how is it? I didn't see the wrong person at the time, right?"

Director Wang winked at her man and said, before Ji Chungeng could speak, the neighbor asked curiously:
"That little comrade just now has been for many years?"

Apparently, it wasn't the first time the neighbor had heard about it, but it was the first time seeing it in many years.

"That's not true. Xiao Xu has sent us several times before and after. If it's an ordinary person, he probably forgot about it long ago."

"Yes, yes, you have a good eye, you should think about what we will give him back next time." Ji Chungeng reluctantly compromised and changed the subject.

At this time, for many years, he had already come to Dean Shen's house.

This time, he wanted to put down the pork and ran away, but Shen Chengquan stopped him.

"I said, Xiao Xu, did you forget something? I thought you would come to me during the two-day National Day holiday, but I didn't expect you to go hunting? And you didn't tell me when you went hunting in the mountains? Are you not enough friends?"

Shen Chengquan is Dean Shen's eldest son, and he works in the security department of the rolling mill.

However, the few times I went to the rolling mill in the past many years, I never met each other.

Presumably he is a leader, and not just an ordinary leader.

"Brother Quan, it's really not that I didn't call you. The hunting in the mountains yesterday was not my team's bureau. I was also dragged by them."

After explaining briefly for many years, Shen Chengquan didn't continue to dwell on this matter, but asked the former about a question about the disappearance of a female worker in a rolling mill.
