The black-bellied prince: the little princess of the chef

Chapter 304 Killing Pigs

The preserved goods found an excuse to deal with it, but after Ye Qing and Ye Junbei dried the preserved goods, they found that the big fat pig in the pigsty had thought of something serious.It's the ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, and the two wild boars have weighed two to three hundred catties, so it's time to get rid of them, right?If she doesn't kill pigs, is she going to buy sausages?

If there were freezers in ancient times, hundreds of catties of pork could be easily frozen, and it would not be impossible to buy meat to make sausages.But the wild boar came out and didn't want to solve it. No matter how cold it is, it will be oxidized if it is put in the air like this, right?Besides, it is unhealthy to eat meat that has been frozen for too long. As a professional cook, she never advocates frozen meat.Therefore, one of these two big fat pigs had to be sold, and after the other was killed, the family kept half of it and sold the other half, or gave some away to give away, so as to improve the relationship between neighbors.

Regarding Ye Qing's proposal, no one in the Ye family had any objections, and Ye Pingrong even entrusted Ye Junbei with the task of finding the butcher.

As the New Year approaches, people with better conditions will kill pigs for the New Year, or share a pig among three or five families, or keep the whole pig for themselves.Like Xun Batian and Xun Dashan's family, they have complex relationships and many friends. During the first month, there is an endless stream of people who come to pay New Year's greetings. One pig is not enough, and at least two pigs are killed every year for backup.

When Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Fang mentioned killing pigs for the New Year, both of them were very interested.Especially knowing that Ye family's big fat pigs are raised from wild boars, the meat is different in nature, and the taste is more tender and delicious.Therefore, Fang's face is thicker than Xun's, and he said straight to the point that he wanted to divide the pork.

On weekdays, the relationship between the several families is good, and the Fang family wants to divide the meat, of course there is nothing wrong with it.Come to bring Xun's family, of course we have to be together, otherwise it will be very bad if there is a difference between closeness and estrangement?So, the three families settled down so happily to share one pig.

On the thirteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, the butcher in charge of slaughtering pigs for Pingle Village came.Ye Junbei didn't find this, but the village chief Kang Yi heard that several families in the village wanted to slaughter pigs, including his own, so he went to the slaughterhouse to invite a doctor.When Ye Junbei went to Boss Gan to mention the matter, Kang Yi had already settled the matter.But no matter who does it, as long as someone kills the pig, isn't it good?

"Mother, the butcher said that we need to boil a large pot of water first, and prepare some bundles of straw."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Xu immediately went to the kitchen, but when she reached the door of the kitchen, she turned around and asked, "Okay, but when will he come?"

Zhang Xiu came back from the outside with Rui'er in her arms, her smooth little face wrinkled with laughter, and said in response: "Mother, Uncle Butcher and the others will be here soon, let me come back and make preparations!"

Kang Yi is the head of the village, so the killing of pigs naturally started from his house.However, relying on his own power, Xun Batian insisted on guarding the butcher to clean up the Kang family's pigs, and dragged the two butchers home.Many people in the village were not ashamed, and they all stood up and accused him of doing something wrong.Under pressure, Xun Batian had no choice but to let the person go and line up honestly.Therefore, it was the Ye family's turn to be on good terms with the abattoir.

As soon as he heard that the butcher was coming, Mrs. Xu hurried into the kitchen to boil water, while Ye Junbei went to the haystack outside the courtyard, took off the haystack hat, and came back with two bundles of straw.Then, the whole family gathered wooden barrels, tile vats and other utensils, and deliberately turned over a door panel to wash it clean, making full preparations before slaughtering pigs.

After Zhang Xiu came back for a while, the butcher arrived!

As soon as the two entered the yard, they found something different. After a closer look, they found that the dam in the Ye family's yard was made of terrazzo. They were slightly surprised and sighed for the generosity.After regaining consciousness, one of them greeted Ye Junbei and said, "Little brother, where is your pig locked? Come and drive it out with me."

"Hey, it's in the circle of the backyard!"

Ye Junbei responded, and led the thinner butcher into the backyard.When passing through the main room, the skinny butcher was surprised again.This family is no less inferior to that rich and powerful Landlord Xun's family!

Maybe the pigs smelled the slaughter on the butcher and sensed the coming of the end. When the butcher approached the pigsty, the two pigs who were lying quietly and sleeping late stood up suddenly.Then, looking at the stranger, he kept humming in the circle.

"Little brother, which one did your family kill?"

"Of course it's the fat end!" Ye Junbei responded without thinking, opened the circle door, and went straight to the fat end.

"huh huh huh huh.."

Seeing Ye Junbei approaching, the big fat pig hummed more clearly, and seemed to be terrified, and kept making noises in the circle.The butcher stood outside the ring, seeing that Ye Junbei couldn't hold it, he leaned on the wall of the ring with one hand, and with a little effort, he fell into the ring.Then without saying a word, he went straight to the big fat pig, and then pushed the pig down at once, and pressed himself on it.

"Quick, rope!"

"Oh oh oh!"

While Ye Junbei lamented his professionalism, he still sent the rope quickly with his hands and feet, and the two of them worked together to tie the pig's four hooves together.However, the pig screamed loudly, and the other pig was so restless that it kept turning around in the circle.

The two used a thousand loads (a kind of shoulder pole, which is round and much longer than a shoulder pole, so it is called a thousand loads) to carry the pig to the yard with ropes.In the village, the sound of dogs barking quickly became one, one after another, very lively.

In a short while, apart from Ye Pingrong who came back from Kang's house, several middle-aged men came along with Kang Yi.Ye Qing stood at the window and watched, except for Village Chief Kang and Yu Miao, she didn't know anyone, so she shook her head involuntarily.

"Don't waste time, everyone, add some water and salt to the basin, let's kill the pig!"

After the sturdy butcher in the yard finished yelling loudly, Ye Pingrong lifted the wooden basin to fetch water, went to the kitchen to scoop some salt into the wooden basin, and then circled it with his hands to melt the salt.

Ye Qing didn't understand why your father wouldn't let your elder brother do it, just as he was about to ask, he heard Zhang Xiu beside him say: "It's very taboo to kill pigs during the Chinese New Year, so you need older and calmer people to do this, which means killing pigs Pigs are auspicious. Prosperous blood is said to make a fortune, so when slaughtering pigs, it must not be spilled or dirty."

That's it!

The sister-in-law and the sister-in-law were talking in low voices, while the people on the other side lifted the pig up to the door.Several big men pressed the positions firmly according to the butcher's request, the skinny butcher was the chief surgeon, the sturdy one was in the back, and Ye Pingrong was in charge of receiving the blood.

Zhang Xiu once saw someone kill a pig, the scene was horrifying, she didn't want Ye Qing to see it, so she said: "Qingqing, don't look, let's go inside!"

Ye Qing was curious about how he killed the pig, and just about to refuse, a sharp pig cry sounded in his ears, tragic and shocking.Zhang Xiu frowned all of a sudden, but Ye Qing's eyes stared at the scene of the bright red blood falling into the basin with great interest.
