At three o'clock in the night of winter, the sound of firecrackers began to sound in Yangjia Village, and it was indispensable for anyone to kill pigs and hang firecrackers, and I don't know who to pay attention to.

If you don't kill pigs and buy pork, you don't have this requirement, just follow along and watch the excitement together. From the time the first pig was tied up and killed, Yang Dongxu followed and worked together.

Killing pigs naturally doesn't need him to be busy, whether it is suicide or hair shedding, there are special butchers. But if you sell meat and sell pigs, you have to go to the field yourself.

Especially the pig blood after each pig is slaughtered, brother-in-law Liu Leehom is responsible for stirring on the side, and he is responsible for cutting the cold pig blood into pieces, to see who wants to weigh it directly, generally two or three families can wrap a pot of pig blood.

As for pork, although people are now full of food in front of them, their stomachs are still short of oil and water, so pork belly is more expensive than pork ribs. To be precise, you can't sell ribs or anything.

In the past few years, seven or eight yuan a pound of big bones, at this time, only free gifts will be seen, most of them are who buy meat for a long time, as for the sale, basically no one sells.

Therefore, the pork belly, as well as the fatty meat on the tenderloin and pig seat board, sold relatively quickly, and the butcher had just cleaned it up and hung it on the shelf, Yang Dongxu played a few times with a cleaver, and the half fan pork was left with rows of ribs and big bones for a while.

And then there was the pig offal or something, basically Yang Ma and Hongying cleaned up a pot, and there was no pot. As for cleaning up it is not very clean, it doesn't matter if it is a little dirty, as long as it is not weighed, this thing will definitely have to be cleaned up when I go home.

"Xuzi, how do you sell the pig's head?" When he was busy for a while, Yang Dongxu finally took a breath, the people who waited to buy meat last night, and the people who bought meat early in the morning were basically all bought, and now they are basically just a few spiritual retail investors.

"If you pick a big one, fifteen yuan a piece, I won't weigh you anymore. Yang Dongxu smiled and pointed to a pig's head that was not small.

Now pork is two yuan a catty, although the pig's head can not be bought as pork, but one is about 20 catties and 15 yuan, and one is bought home to clean up, basically there is no loss and a small profit.

"That's it. "Rural people often sell grain, chickens and ducks or something, and they can basically estimate the estimated weight of things at a glance, but they are not accurate in estimating, and they have a number in their hearts, "Kill sheep today?"

"Kill, but this will not be killed until someone kills it in the morning, and my sheep are killed and not sold, so I keep them for my own consumption. Yang Dongxu said with a smile.

The family raised a lot of pigs, but did not raise sheep. Therefore, the raising was fed by the grandparents' family, so they took advantage of the killing pig Yang Ma to bring over and prepare to kill their own family to eat meat.

However, their family does not sell it, and those who kill sheep do not necessarily keep all the meat. So if you want to buy it, you can basically buy it by waiting for it, and you don't have to run to town.

I was busy and ate a few steamed buns brought by Zhuo Qing'er in the morning, and I was busy until noon. From the beginning of the night to the end of the morning, a total of 15 large pigs and five or six sheep were killed.

The meat is basically sold out after killing, and some of them don't even have pigs left in the water. After the last pig was killed, everything was not sold.

A pig is 200 catties, although the Yang family has a lot of it, they can't eat it all, after all, the weather will warm up after the New Year, and they can't put it without a refrigerator. However, relatives send a little bit to each family, and basically most of the pigs are gone, so they are not afraid of not being able to eat them all.

"I brought you the beef you wanted, a cow hind leg and ten catties of tenderloin are enough, right?" After selling the meat and starting to pack up the things, the little five and a few people followed the adults to the town to buy things and came back into the market town.

"That's enough, it's good beef, don't die of any disease. "Although pigs and sheep are slaughtered during the Chinese New Year in rural areas, they basically do not kill cattle or dogs.

However, families who can afford to eat beef and dog meat, which need to be bought at the place where the catchers slaughtered them. Yang Dongxu has been a bit hungry for beef in the past two days, so when someone from the village went to the town to buy something in the morning, he asked someone to bring some beef back.

"It must be good beef, if he dares to cheat, let's go and smash his stall." Da Liang was on the side to help.

Buying things at home is not at ease, as long as you have a little reputation, you are not afraid to buy fakes. Otherwise, even the police station won't ask about such a thing as smashing a stall at the door. With the current reputation of Yangjia Village, no one in the entire Wuli Town really dares to pit the people of Yangjia Village.

"When will you do it, I will stay at home a little longer after the New Year this year, if you do, I will press the bed for you. Yang Dongxu took out a cigarette from his pocket and scattered it for a few people.

"I haven't chosen a good date yet, my sister will marry first, and then me. Da Liang said.

The sister in his mouth is not his own sister, but his cousin. Da Liang's father has three brothers, and the eldest girl is less than ten years old. He was second among his cousins.

"Have you chosen Juanzi's day?"

"I've chosen, and I'm done on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. You'll want to stop by for a drink. Da Liang said with a smile.

"That's a must. Yang Dongxu also laughed, as long as he was at home, such a thing was obviously indispensable.

"I heard that the eldest lady said that Sister Hongying will also have a happy event after the New Year?" asked Xiao Wu beside him.

"Well, the man on the tenth day of the first year set the table there, and my house set it when he returned to the door on the twelveth. When are you leaving, can you catch up?" In the past two days, Liu Leehom has discussed the wedding date with his family on the phone.

Because everyone is busy at the end of the year, plus the distance is too far. So this parents on both sides met and gave birth to something. Although it felt a little rushed, everyone was relaxed after the day was set.

"It's not certain that you won't be able to go out this year, and you won't be able to leave before the fifteenth year. By the way, the crooked man is back. I saw him when I went to the town to catch the market today. Xiao Wu said suddenly.

"Come back, come back, can we still take care of people going home for the New Year?" Yang Dongxu said indifferently.

It is estimated that it was because of the top three yesterday that Xiao Wu mentioned the crooked matter. As for the things that should have been shot in the past, Yang Dongxu is not so stingy that he wants to kill them all and prevent people from entering the house.

"Xuzi has packed up his things, packed up and went home for dinner. Mother Yang shouted in the distance.

"Packed up. Yang Dongxu responded, and a few people hurriedly stepped forward, threw things into the basket, and helped send them home.

Helping things be delivered home, Yang Dongxu hurriedly dispersed his cigarette: "Let's stay and eat together." ”

"No, no, it's time to cook at home, and I'll come to you in the afternoon. Da Liang and several people hurriedly waved their hands, took the cigarettes and went out.

"Why is it expensive to buy such beef jerky. Our family is not short of meat to eat. Seeing the whole hind leg of the cow, plus a large piece of tenderloin, Mother Yang looked at her son with some anger.

"Pork is pork, can it be the same as beef? Yang Dongxu said with a hippie smile.

"You just skin you, by the way, what about the account book when selling meat?" Yang Dongxu is responsible for selling meat, and he naturally comes to keep accounts.

This ledger is not a one-time record when you buy a piece of meat, and no one in the countryside sells meat in this way. In the ledger, remember that there is no money to pay on credit, or there is not enough money to owe and then go back to the ledger.

"Here, yes. Two days ago, I saw that there seemed to be a lot of uncleared account books in the store in front of me?" Yang Dongxu took out the rolled-up book from his pocket.

"I'll let your dad go down to collect it if I'm free in the past two days, it's been owed for several years, and now no one has paid it back. Mother Yang said a little angrily.

The accounts in the account books of the store are basically owed on credit by someone when the store was opened in the past, and the longest ones are owed for four or five years and do not know how to pay them back. Sometimes Mama Yang feels that they are all people from ten miles and eight villages, and they know each other, and they are a little embarrassed. But the more this account is owed, the more you owe, if you don't have any money, forget it, and if you have money, you won't pay it back, which makes her a little angry.

"It's time to ask for it, even if you don't have money, you can't say if you don't pay it back. Yang Dongxu nodded.

If the family is really difficult, it is okay to wipe the account and ignore it, the Yang family is not short of this money to live. But if you don't pay off your debts, it's a bit too much. The only reason why he wrote the account book in advance was because when he went to the granary yesterday, he saw several people who owed money and didn't pay it back sitting there playing cards, and they were all playing two pieces of money.

"What do you say? How do you buy so much beef? Dad Yang walked back from outside with a smile on his face.

The last bit of pig head or something left was sold by Yang Dongxu, and he went to the pig farm to count the pigs again. What is killed today is killed today, and twenty heads will be sent to the slaughterhouse in the city tomorrow, and this must be prepared in advance.

"Ask for accounts when you have time. ”

"There's no need for this, right...... Where is that time. Dad Yang's face couldn't help but stiffen.

In fact, Dad Yang has some places that are quite similar to Uncle Shengli, that is, he is poor and generous, and he has a good face. No matter who borrowed the money, even if it was nagged by Yang's mother, he still lent the money. But when it came time to ask for the account, it was a little difficult to open his face.

"I have to go if I don't have time, it just so happens that Xuzi is at home, send a pig or something to let him go with Shengli, you take the account book and ask me for the account tomorrow." You have lent out the money that our family has worked so hard to earn, what are you pretending to be when you ask for the account?" Mama Yang glared at Dad Yang.

"In two days, in two days, our family is not worse than this New Year. ”

"Shout, atmosphere, it's not a little worse, it's not a little bit that you sprinkle all your money on the street. Ask me for the account tomorrow, or you won't come back. And in the future, if someone comes to borrow money, you will lend it secretly and you will wait for me. Mother Yang was instantly angry.

"Dad, I'm on Mom's side this time. Our family's money is not a wasted water, since we are talking about borrowing money, then there must be borrowing and repayment. Although our family is not short of money, we can't be fooled by others, right?"

"Isn't it a little unscrupulous to the folks in the township?" said Dad Yang with a somewhat embarrassed face.

"They borrow money and don't pay it back, and they still have the face to play cards, what do you have that you can't wipe your face? Or that sentence, we don't miss that money, but since it is said that it is borrowed, it must be repaid, and if there is money to play cards, it will not be repaid, so what is it that we should be wronged?"

But this matter is obviously not a matter of good face and bad face, and the rules are the rules. You said that you borrowed it, that is, you borrowed it, there are IOUs and account books, and if you have money, you don't take it back to play cards, are you really bullied by the Yang family?

Just because the Yang family has money, you won't pay back the money you borrowed?
