Chapter Ninety-Five: Killing the Pig
After a while, there was movement in the kitchen.
"Knife cut noodles!" Jiang Jianguo said categorically when he heard the voice, "Dad is in a good mood today, I just don't know if I have made a zizi, if you can pour a big spoonful of zizi on the noodles and match it with 4 large pieces of braised beef, it is best to bring some fat and some tendons." ”
"Dad didn't make a fool of himself. Jiang Jiankang interrupted Jiang Jianguo's daydream.
"I didn't do it. Jiang Jianguo was a little disappointed, "It's okay to add some marinade if you don't do it, and then mix some capers." ”
"I finished eating the capers last night. Jiang Jiandang also poured a basin of cold water.
"I saw that there was a big pot on the photo cabinet the day before yesterday, why did you finish eating?" Jiang Jianguo was furious.
"Xiaofeng went home, and Mom said that Sanhua would eat better these days, and Dad was busy cooking pig food and stir-fried vegetables last night, and the rest of the time it was boiled stomach porridge, what does that thing taste like, every dozen bowls of water will be eaten, and we can only eat capers. Jiang Jiankang was a little aggrieved, "It's not that Xiaofeng ran back without saying a word, otherwise Dad would have to let us eat something dry." ”
Jiang Feng: ......
He felt like a big pot had hit him in the head.
With an invisible cauldron on his head, Jiang Feng maintained an embarrassed but polite smile throughout the whole process until the old man called them to serve them inside.
The three brothers showed flexibility inversely proportional to their body weight, and they quickly grabbed a bowl of noodles and went to grab the beef in a flash, and the three of them surrounded the pot of braised beef tightly, and Jiang Feng and Jiang Zaide, who reacted slowly, couldn't squeeze in.
By the time Jiang Feng's fourth and fifth uncles arrived, everyone was already sitting at the door with a chair and burping, and they didn't have time to say more, so they hurriedly went to the kitchen to grab the leftover beef.
The Jiang family's annual New Year's war for food has begun.
Ten minutes later, there were eight more chairs at the door, and Jiang Feng's two twin cousins, one on the left and one on the right, were paralyzed in exactly the same way.
Comrade Jiang Jianguo, the winner, asked leisurely: "Which pig will be slaughtered this year?"
"Sanhua, Dad said that he would slaughter it in the afternoon, and he contacted Butcher Wang yesterday, and Old Man Wang slaughtered it himself. "Jiang Jiandang said.
"Old man Wang, didn't he quit doing it a long time ago, didn't all the big flowers be slaughtered by his son?" Jiang Jianguo suddenly became energetic.
"Xiao Wang's level is not good, how can the pig be slaughtered for him, his meat is not right, and the pig is not good, and the old man Wang has to go out in person. "Jiang Jiandang said.
"Eh, fifth brother, we haven't seen Sanhua yet, let's go, let's go to the pigsty?" Jiang Jianye proposed.
"Okay, the last time I saw Sanhua, it was still a little piglet, just to see what it looks like. Jiang Jianshe got up and went to the pigsty with Jiang Jianye.
Jiang Junlian and Jiang Junqing hadn't seen much live pigs, and they also ran to see the excitement, Jiang Feng thought that he had fed Sanhua more than ten days of pig food, and today it was going to be made into a pig-killing dish, so he should go and see it, Jiang Zaide and Jiang Shoucheng followed suit and ran to the pigsty.
The seven people surrounded the pigsty, and the light could not penetrate it, and the four flowers and five flowers, who had never seen the world, hid in the corner and snorted in fright.
"Eh, these three flowers grow well!" Jiang Jianshe boasted, "This back is wide, flat, and firm! It must be good to make garlic white meat!"
"This buttocks are not bad, complete, there must be a lot of muscles, when the time comes, take it to bake, a point of honey, a point of spicy, spicy and cumin......" Jiang Jianye's eyes were shining.
"If Dad can add more white vinegar to make sweet and sour, without adding coriander, it tastes. "Jiang Jianshe is daydreaming.
"It's okay to say without coriander, Dad doesn't like to be jealous, add a little bit to the sky, but I don't know how this year's blood sausage is. Jiang Jianye smacked his mouth as he spoke, "Sauerkraut blood sausage stewed white meat, tsk, it's simple." ”
The two brothers were arguing with Sanhua, and Grandma Jiang, who had originally gone to discuss the killing of pigs with Mr. Wang, came back angrily and shouted in a loud voice: "Jianguo, party building, Jiankang, Jianye, Jianye, Jianhua, drive Sanhua out for me, and go to Master Wang to kill it now!"
Jiang Jiankang was shocked: "Mom, didn't Dad say to kill in the afternoon?"
"I can't wait for the afternoon, just now Li Cuihua next door also went to find Old Man Wang, Old Man Wang is so old, if you kill their pigs, where will you have the energy to slaughter Sanhua, hurry up, what about the two little rabbit cubs? Call me and drive Sanhua over!" Grandma Jiang said and walked towards the pigsty.
Under the command of Grandma Jiang, the five brothers worked together, Sanhua ran in front and they chased behind, and finally arrived before the pig next door.
The father and son of the next door drove the pig back with hatred and waited for tomorrow, in the several howls of Sanhua, the old man Wang used his exquisite pig killing skills to arrange all parts of Sanhua clearly.
"Dad, Sanhua screamed so badly. Jiang Junqing, who is in junior high school, is a little unbearable.
"It's okay, the worse the screaming is, the better the cooking will be when the time comes. Jiang Jianshe comforted.
Jiang Feng: ???
After the pig is killed, Master Wang doesn't care, killing the pig is a physical job, and he is not young anymore, so he went into the house to change clothes and rest.
"Hurry up, Zaide, Shoucheng, bring back the pig's blood and give your grandfather a blood sausage. "Grandma Jiang is the commander-in-chief.
The basin was filled with salt water in advance for fear of pig blood coagulation, so Jiang Zaide and Jiang Shoucheng picked up the basin and ran home at a speed of 100 meters.
"What are you fools still doing in a daze, Master Wang has divided it, why don't you pack it up and take it home. Grandma Jiang roared, "When I left, I passed by Li Cuihua's door, and wanted to cut off my beard, and I didn't see if her pigs were so fat and ran to win my Sanhua." ”
It turned out that Jiang Feng didn't know if he could win or not, but now he won the run, after all, the three flowers are all in the pot, and even if the four hooves are still there, he can't run.
The Jiang family has many children and grandchildren, and they are strong and strong, so they will all be sent home in one trip.
When the things were ready, they started to get busy, the old man poured blood sausages, Jiang Jianguo and Jiang Jiankang dealt with the pigs in the water, and the rest of the people helped cut the meat and divide the meat.
The pork had to be dealt with, and the staple food of the evening was dumplings, and it was a hassle to chop and roll out the dough and fill the dumplings, and a large family, including the women who didn't usually cook much, were busy until it was dark.
Dinner was pork dumplings and sauerkraut and blood sausage stewed with white meat.
The blood sausage is freshly cooked, and this meal is the most tender, so the old man did not skimp on using the best pork belly on Sanhua, three points of fat and seven times cooked, and with sauerkraut, the old man cooked two large bowls. Jiang Feng also took out the kimchi that Jiang Weiming gave him, although there was only one dish for this meal, but it was lively and lively, and he actually ate the feeling of Chinese New Year's Eve.
"It's the New Year. Jiang Weiming sighed.
"I'll make you a chopped pepper fish head on the thirtieth night. Jiang Weiming said with a smile.
"Okay!" Jiang Jiankang was immediately excited, "Third uncle, the village chief said that the village will pump the fish pond in the morning of the thirtieth and divide the fish, and the silt at the bottom of the pond will be cleared after the year. I don't have to buy fish, there is a big fathead fish at the bottom of the pond, and my second brother and I haven't caught it for half a month!"
Jiang Weiming didn't bother to scold him, and began to seriously think about what to eat for the thirty nights, this year there are many happy events at home, and it is time to cook a sumptuous Chinese New Year's Eve dinner to draw a successful end to this year.
