Chapter 114 Killing pigs in the yard
Mrs. Zou scraped a little paste with a bamboo strip, rubbed it on the paper of the matchbox a few times, and pressed the paper on the matchbox. Her movements were skillful, as she had been doing for several years, and she was fast and steady.
"It's nothing. The three of us make it together for lunch every day. It's simple, with both meat and vegetables. We also have enough steamed buns for Erhe Noodles. The chefs have agreed."
"This work is done very quickly. You don't see many people now. They went to pull the pipes. They said they would try to bury the pipes outside the courtyard tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. The water pipes in the compound want to wait until everyone goes to work next week before digging."
"By the way, the road section chief of a motorcycle factory has come to see you."
Chief Lu is looking for me?I'll go to work soon. You can go look for me at any time. Let's wait until you get to work.
Master Xue just happened to come down from the roof, so he just introduced a few words casually. There was no problem with the progress. It was much more convenient than expected. It is estimated that it will not take a month, but it should be a few days ahead of schedule.
Looking at the small pot that was emitting black smoke and exuding a pungent smell, Zhu Xuefeng knew that the boiled asphalt and the linoleum felt piled aside were the main waterproof materials now.
Today's sloped roofs all use this waterproof material, and then lay clay tiles or cement tiles to form a waterproof and drainage structure with drainage as the main component and waterproofing as a supplement.
Uncle Xue introduced the seven-layer method of "three felts and four oils", or the five-layer method of "two felts and three oils".Zhu Xuefeng chose the most troublesome seven-layer method. He didn't understand it very well, but two more layers should only be beneficial.
It is expected that the roofing will start the day after tomorrow, and it will take about four or five days to start putting on the tiles. The key point is that the seven-layer method chosen by Zhu Xuefeng is very cumbersome and involves many processes. It requires fourteen steps before putting on the tiles.
"We only start work at eight o'clock every day, and we stop at seven o'clock in the afternoon when it gets dark. We won't disturb the neighbors, so don't worry."
"You have to be careful with this pot of asphalt. Firstly, children are prone to accidental injuries. Secondly, because of the smell, if I were a neighbor I would wish you had finished it as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, my boss, the aunt is here to watch every day, and there are no children to join in the fun. It's okay. We will speed up the process later and use it concentratedly to avoid burning it twice."
Uncle Xue humbly accepted Zhu Xuefeng's suggestion. There were quite a few children in this yard. If something unexpected happened, he couldn't afford to offend them.
Zhu Xuefeng handed over a cigarette and lit it. Uncle Xue sat down on the front steps and started smoking. He also took a break. It was quite uncomfortable to toss on the roof in the sun.
Zhu Xuefeng nodded, as long as he didn't disturb the neighbors. He would have to stay in the compound for who knows how many years. He would look down every day without looking up. It would not be good to annoy people.
"Auntie, you have to keep an eye on me for a while. I have to clean up and change my clothes. This whole body is full of dirt."
"Go ahead. Uncle You will be back soon. I have nothing to do."
After washing up, changing clothes, and coming out refreshed, a group of children were still surrounding the door.
The family is not used to having younger siblings. The roof of Uncle Zou's house has been finished, but the water pipes have not yet been laid. He has to stay in He Yuyu's house for another two days.
Looking at the chicken coop and vegetable garden, they are all fine. The old couple have tidied them up. It would be impossible without the help of neighbors. Otherwise, as the old saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors.
The old couple had a place to live, but they didn't consider the problem of not having a place to live. It was really troublesome. They couldn't live in a guest house. The reason was that their home was being renovated.
Zhu Xuefeng took the basin and went to wash his clothes.
Zhu Xuefeng was surprised to find that Jia Zhang had set up a stall in front of his house. It looked like he was making matches. His clothes and pants were all stained with starch in many places. It must have been brighter outside, so he moved outside.
When they saw Zhu Xuefeng, he was still mumbling something, and he must have nothing nice to say, so he pretended not to see him, and Bang Gang and Xiao Dang were playing in front of the door.
Now that she's registered, the notoriously lazy woman starts working?Many things have changed. This can be considered self-reliance. Zhu Xuefeng ignored it and stepped up to wash his clothes.
……
It was the fourth day that He Yuyu took his younger siblings out. He didn’t know what was going on. He didn’t have a mobile phone, so he couldn’t practice in real time. He was probably still on the inkstone. Thinking of his younger siblings, Zhu Xuefeng was in a daze, and kept imagining their situation. It would be great if I could take it with me when I have time.
The children who were watching the excitement have all left. Zhu Xuefeng has not untied the sack. He can't see anything and can only hear grunting. The pig has been tortured for almost a day and a night. He has lost his energy and can no longer hum. .People who got off work also came back one after another. When they saw Zhu Xuefeng sitting at the door, looking at the sack, they all said hello.
"What are you doing, Zhu Xuefeng, what is this sack? Why are you still moaning, is it a pig?"
Uncle Niu and a few workers came back and went up to say hello.
"Well, the wild boar we just got back from my hometown is waiting to be killed. When the time comes, everyone will come to taste it. You have to come and help me."
"Well then, go change your clothes. I'll be right back."
The laughing co-workers had all left, and Silly Zhu also came back, and saw Zhu Xuefeng guarding a sack.
"Hey, I'm back now. I thought it would take me a few days, but I'm back on the third day. What the hell is this? It's not another wild boar."
"Brother Zhuzi, you are right. It is a wild boar cub. I will wait for you to clean it up when you come back. Otherwise, I won't be able to go there and will have to watch it here."
"Look at the pig being killed!" the children who saw the movement shouted all over the yard.
At one time, more than a dozen children gathered in the front yard, watching the wild boar cub being dragged out. It was so ugly, much uglier than a pig. The children all agreed.
When there were more people, Shazhu became interested. Uncle Niu in the backyard also called two workers to help.
"Uncle Xue, let everyone stop today. There are too many people. Don't cause any trouble."
"Okay." Uncle Xue called to the craftsmen to clean up the scene and evacuated with them.
I happened to meet the third uncle entering the yard.
"Third uncle, I'll ask Brother Zhuzi to kill a piglet in a moment. Do you think Third Aunt can help boil some water?"
"Kill the pig." The third uncle was stunned. In the village, pigs were usually killed during the Chinese New Year. What kind of pig was Zhu Xuefeng killing? No wonder there were so many people around the front yard.
"No, I came back from my hometown and brought a little wild boar with me. I'll ask Brother Zhuzi to do the knife later. Just help Zhang Luo boil some water."
The third uncle has already realized what's going on. It's a good thing. This help is not in vain. It's a good thing that you can't find even with a lantern. He quickly agreed with a smile on his face.
"No problem, I'll ask the second child to give you a hand later." The eldest brother didn't come back. The other two were too young, so they all wanted to help. I just forgot about it. I'm still a scholar after all, so it's not suitable.
The first and second uncles also came back together at this time. As soon as they entered the front yard, they saw the bustle. Everyone was smiling and looking at it and pointing.
It was Silly Zhu who wanted to kill the pig. Judging by his posture, it was Zhu Xuefeng who got the pig. Even the second boy from the third uncle's family was enthusiastically helping.
Zhu Xuefeng had already cooperated with Shazhu to kill him, and now he was very familiar with it and organized everything in an orderly manner.
The wild boar has been placed on several benches and tied tightly. A large basin has been placed under its head. There is also a small case beside it, with various tools of Silly Pillar neatly placed on it. .
Silly Zhu looked at everyone and said to Zhu Xuefeng.
"It stands to reason that the four hooves of this pig should be tied separately, but this is a wild boar, so don't bother with it, just make do with it."
Silly Zhu carefully cleaned the knife and carefully inspected the main artery of the wild boar's neck. With a wave of his hand, the sharp knife pierced deeply, and a sharp howl sounded. All the children were startled and stepped back.
