The peasant daughter of the crossing

Chapter 129

"Hey! Third brother and sister, where did you get this water! It's actually sweeter than the water in the well." Kuang may be thirsty, or it may be that he didn't eat in the morning, was hungry, and just scooped it up after washing his hands. Drinking a ladle of water.After finishing drinking, he hiccupped and said contentedly.

"This is the water brought down from the back mountain." Ruhua is still a little proud of her original idea, it has lightened Saburo's work!
"No wonder why it's so sweet." Mrs. Kuang raised her hand to wipe the water from the corner of her mouth and walked over, "Looks like tomorrow, Erlang and I will also go to the back mountain to look for a mountain spring to come down."

Ruhua is not afraid that Mrs. Kuang will destroy their drinking water, because the two houses are still some distance away, and the orientation of the two houses happens to be opposite, so the mountains on their backs are also different.

After hearing this, Xiaoxiao burst out laughing for some reason.

"What did the fourth brother and sister think of, so funny?" Mrs. Kuang took a ball of flour from the basin at this moment, stood in front of the chopping board and began to knead it.

"No, it's nothing, I just thought of a joke suddenly." Xiaoxiao refused to express the thought in his heart.

Because just now she thought that because of the temperament of the second sister-in-law and second brother who put difficulties first, she still wanted to dig a canal, and she didn't know how funny it was.She remembered that at that time, just Shiro came to help and didn't know how many days she had helped, not to mention the work done by the third brother and the third sister-in-law, so it was inevitable that she thought it was a little funny.

"Oh!" Kuang echoed, and started to knead the flour, but slowed down before kneading for 5 minutes, and started to play tricks.

"I went out to have a look. Why haven't they started yet, but they forgot the time." Kuang felt that after kneading for a while, her hands were sore and her waist hurt. She really didn't want to knead anymore, so she took the opportunity just went out.

After Kuang went out, Xiaoxiao became unhappy, "Sister-in-law, look at her like that, where is she here to work? It's obvious that she came here to grab a meal, and she had the nerve to rush here yesterday."

Ruhua knows Kuang's temperament, but Erlang is still able to work. If Erlang didn't come here today, I don't know if this work can start, so she didn't get angry at the moment, and persuaded her with a smile, "It's not like you don't know The second sister-in-law has such a temperament, why bother to get angry with him. To be honest, it is thanks to her for helping yesterday, so that the second brother came together. If it weren't for this, there are not so many people in this job, why do we still need the two of us? Can the women press the pig together?"

Xiaoxiao also knows the temperament of the second sister-in-law. Just now, she just thought that the second sister-in-law was too lazy, even if she said angry words, she also calmed down now.

Just when the two were about to divide the dough that Mrs. Kuang had kneaded just now, they heard Sanlang shouting outside.

"Ruhua, hurry up and bring some water out of the basin."

When Ruhua heard this, she took the basin and brought out the water.This is the only way to know that there was no movement for a while just now, because Sanlang was boiling water in the yard!This water must be used to remove the pig hair later.

Seeing the tumbling hot water, Ruhua remembered a saying, a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water!

"What do you need water for now? Isn't the pot already full?" Holding the water, he walked to the simple stove that was dug that day.

Sanlang just put the last handful of dry firewood into the stove, stood up, "This water will be used to catch the blood later." He walked over and took the wooden basin from Ruhua's hand, but His brows were frowned, "Didn't you say that you only need a little water? Why are there so many? You only need water to cover the bottom of the pelvis to receive blood, and you don't need so much water."

"Did you make it clear, how would I know?" Ru Hua muttered.

"Okay, my fault, my fault." Saburo whispered back, then turned around and poured the unused water into the pot.

After Sanlang reached the water, he put the wooden basin in front of the wide wooden bench, and said to the men in the yard, "Is everything ready? Ready, let's lure the pig out."

Everyone also nodded their heads, but the children were still a little excited, chattering there, not only the girl Xiao Xiaobao, but also Erlang's family.They also followed, so the children were excited when they heard that they were going to kill pigs.

Xiaoxiao was originally kneading the dough in the kitchen, but when she heard the words of the people in the yard, she washed her hands impatiently and came out to watch the fun.

Ruhua and Sanlang had already discussed yesterday, which pig to slaughter this time, but they didn't go to the pigsty with them.

Speaking of wild boars, in fact, the wildness has long been thought to be two-thirds of captivity, so it is not considered vicious. Saburo, who usually slaughters wild boars in the mountains, naturally does not take these things seriously, but he and Erlang and the others The three of them led the wild boar out together.Xu knew the danger, but the wild boar was unwilling to come out, making several big men sweating.

Finally, amidst the wild boar's loud cry, several men fixed the wild boar to the wide wooden bench. Saburo also had quick eyesight and quick hands, and stabbed the wild boar in the neck with the knife he had prepared long ago.Once in and out, the action is extremely fast.

Blood gushed out immediately.

The wild boar is still making its final struggle, and its strength is surprisingly great!Several men put their weight on the wild boar completely, and they were considered to be holding the wild boar.

"Ruhua, hurry up, don't just stand there in a daze! The blood will be gone in a while." Sanlang's forehead was still dripping with bean-sized sweat, and he still didn't forget the profuse blood.

Ruhua turned around amidst Sanlang's yelling, and hurried forward, moved the wooden basin, facing the direction where the blood left her mouth, some blood still splashed on her clothes halfway, but she didn't pay much attention.

Speaking of Xuewang, Ruhua remembered that she liked to eat it before, but since she heard that Xuewang was blended with blood powder, she hadn’t eaten it, and now she can eat Xuewang again, the glutton in her stomach Was seduced out again.

"Remove the tub! All that's left is dead blood."

Under Saburo's reminder, Ruhua moved the wooden basin away, and was very happy to see the basin full of pig's blood. She suddenly remembered that if the pig's blood coagulated at noon, she could still make a basin of sour food. It's spicy soup, but I don't know if they are willing to eat it in summer.Forget it, they don't eat, they eat by themselves, so there is another dish at noon.
