Fragrant Spring Scenery - 135 New Year Killing Pigs

"Aoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..." These days, the screams of this kind of fat pigs have been heard from time to time in Muwa Village. Here, every household has to kill a fat pig to celebrate the New Year.Especially today, the 27th of the twelfth lunar month, there is a folk saying that killing seven is not killing eight.It is said that 28 is the birthday of the Pig God, and pigs cannot be slaughtered on this day. If someone kills them, the pigs will not be large in the coming year, so the pigs will be killed until 27 throughout the year.

Lin Hua's family also slaughtered pigs today. His family's pigs have been raised for more than a year, and they weigh a total of one hundred and fifty-six catties.At that time, there was a joke about raising pigs in the countryside. It took three years to get big, four years to get fat, and five years to grow a little fat. According to this joke, Lin Hua’s pigs were considered fat.

Lin Hua's father boiled a pot of water early, sharpened the knife, and called the new son-in-law Haishan.He asked his uncle to help him kill pigs with a knife. He has grown old in recent years, and the hand holding the knife is shaking, so he dare not do the job of killing pigs.He originally asked Lin Hua to kill him, but Lin Hua shook his head like a shopkeeper, saying that he couldn't do it.That's why my uncle came to help.

When Haishan came, Lin Hua's father asked some neighbors who came to help to drag the pig out of the pen.This pig is really a pig. When people entered the pigpen, it thought it was to feed it. It was not until Haishan clamped its upper mouth with a clip tied with two pieces of bamboo strips that it "wowed" shouted.Several people worked together to lift the big fat pig onto the long bench, those who pulled the tail pulled the tail, those who grabbed the pig's feet grabbed the pig's feet, and held it down firmly.Monkey Three took a basin and put it on the ground to catch the pig's blood. He also came to help and buy pork.He is single and does not raise pigs or chickens, so he can come to Linhua and ask for twenty or thirty catties of clean meat to go back for the New Year.

As the big fat pig pulled out Haishan's knife, its screams became smaller and smaller, and finally it was just breathing silently.Hou San added salt to most of the pot of pig's blood, let it go in, and stirred it up.The pig blood made by Housan is always tender and elastic.

Lin Hua came out with boiling water and handed it to Haishan to scald the pig hair.At this time, Youcai and Jiazhen also came with a few people. Jiazhen's family didn't raise pigs, and her family had money, so they could just buy one. They brought people here to kill Lin Hua's pigs.Lin Hua's family has four pigs. Lin Fen killed two of them when she got married. Now she kills one and sells one to Jiazhen's family.

When Jiazhen saw Hou San, she felt unnatural for a second or two, and then she talked and laughed like an ordinary person.Lin Hua thought to himself, this woman really knows how to cover up, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have thought that she had that kind of relationship with Hou San.

Lin Hua’s family would invite their neighbors and relatives to have a meal of pig’s blood rice when they butchered a pig. It was good to kill, disemboweled and cleaned, then weighed and carried away.And this weighing is just the clean meat, and the internal organs are not paid.

Hou San and Lin Hua joked: "Huazi, next year you can kill pigs and sell them. Once the meat is sold out, you will earn real money."

"Why don't you kill?"

"I don't have that money."

"When it's sold out, check out. What kind of book do you need?"

"No one believes me, who will kill the pig for me?"

"Hehe, no one will believe me..."

The two chatted while working, Lin Hua thought to himself, Monkey San said this might not be a good way, killing a pig for sale in two days is far better than doing farm work exhaustingly.After thinking about it, he really came up with the idea of ​​killing pigs and selling them.It's just that if you want to do it, you can't do it until after the Qingming Festival next year, because now every household in this family kills a pig of about [-] catties to make bacon for the New Year. Money to buy pork to eat.

Jiazhen and the others also killed the pigs. She went into the kitchen of Lin Hua's house to turn on the water and ran into Lin Hua who was also coming in to get something.She stopped Lin Hua, and asked mysteriously, "Huazi, when will you welcome your wife?"

Lin Hua was a little confused about the situation, so he asked back, "Where do I have a wife?"

Jiazhen pretended to understand everything, and said, "Don't deny it, who doesn't know about your flirts."

Lin Hua thought for a while, recently the long-mouthed woman asked him about his relationship with Ah Xiang, did she also know about it?So I was a little embarrassed and said: "I haven't asked her family yet. If her family agrees, then marry her."

Jiazhen twisted her somewhat bloated waist, shrugged her shoulders back, and said to Lin Hua in a reproachful tone: "You, really, I will talk to my husband tonight and see if he agrees, If he disagrees, I will help you find a way."

Lin Hua was startled, and only then did he realize that Jiazhen was talking about Liping.He stepped forward to cover Jiazhen's mouth, and asked in a low voice, "Did Liping tell you?" Lin Hua thought that Liping was too vicious. sister-in-law.

Jiazhen muttered a few times, took Lin Hua's hand away, coughed for a while and said, "Are you trying to suffocate me? What did she tell me? I saw her carrying you into the room that night."

"Keep your voice down." Lin Hua hurriedly grabbed Jiazhen's hand again, "Don't talk nonsense, I was so drunk that night, that's why she carried me in, nothing happened between us." Lin Hua Judging from what Jiazhen said just now, Liping didn't tell her, so she didn't want to admit it, after all, the less people know about it, the better, otherwise it would be troublesome if it spread to Ah Xiang's ears.

Jiazhen thought that they all slept in the same room. If there is nothing wrong, then there is something wrong, so she smiled and said: "Oh, I'm still shy, when are you going to make it public? My Liping is 26, and I can't afford it." oh."

"Anyway, don't worry about it, and don't tell anyone, just take care of you and my third brother." The cunning Lin Hua moved out Monkey Three.

Sure enough, Jiazhen blushed and stopped talking. She turned around and scooped the boiled water into the bucket spoon by spoon.

After a pause, Lin Hua took the things, walked to Jiazhen's side, and said in a low voice: "Be like me, don't say anything, you know." Then he walked out.Leaving Jiazhen thoughtful, she was really surprised that this young man would be a little shy when he fell in love, but he shouldn't threaten her and Hou San's affairs.Besides, I asked my family members to agree to marry me just now, why did it suddenly become like this?She knew that Lin Hua wouldn't talk about her and Hou San's affairs, but if Lin Hua frightened herself like this, he must have something shameful.

"Jiazhen, why haven't you fetched water for so long, this pig will be cold later, come out quickly." Youcai urged outside.

Jiazhen hurriedly picked up the bucket and went out, shouting as she walked: "Here, come, dust flies into the eyes, just fiddle with it, you are killing me."
