In addition to cattle, there is also a kind of domestic animal that must be raised with care, that is, pigs, especially sows that can piglets, and this Feng Yiping also has a lot to say. Because of the years of secondary school, in order to maintain the life, the family raised sows.

Sows give birth to two litters of piglets a year, each with about a dozen piglets. The tradition of survival of the fittest in the animal world is directly manifested here. In each litter of piglets, there are always one or two, who are naturally thinner than other brothers and sisters, and there are several times when more piglets are born than sows.

Feng Yiping remembers that there are 13 sows in their family, but there are several times when they have more than 13 piglets. Therefore, the weakest pig has a hard time eating its mother's milk, and the weakest one is also the most troublesome.

This little piglet is seventy or eighty or even hundreds of yuan, of course, it has to be served well, so it is boiled and ground rice milk in rice soup, put it in a bottle, and hold the little pig to feed it - just like feeding a child's milk.

It's not okay to eat it all the time, you still want breast milk, so you can only wait for the other piglets to finish the milk, and then carefully send it to its mother to let it feed. The reason why you should be careful, because the lactating sow has a big temper and is very protective of the cubs, even if the owner is close, it will be very vigilant, sometimes, not only will it arch you, but it will really bite you, so be careful.

In addition, lactating mothers, whether they are human mothers or pig mothers, have a big temper and are easily irritable - this Feng Yiping also has experience.

It's been fed once just now, and you let a small thing to feed, if it's in a bad mood, it will lie on the ground all over, ** all of it is suppressed, and let the little guy babble next to it, it closes its eyes, its two big ears droop, and pretends not to see or hear. At this time, you have to tickle it and coax it before it turns sideways and exposes the **.

Also be careful, eating and eating, the mother pig will be impatient again, and it will be endless, so as soon as she turns over, the thin little guy is not sensitive, and there is no time to think about anything else when he eats Zhengxiang, and if he is not good, he will be pressed under the stomach by his mother, compacted, and the mother of hundreds of pounds will suddenly want most of its life, so at this time, you must be quick-eyed, otherwise you will become an accomplice.

From giving birth to the piglet to selling the piglet, there are more than two months in between. The price of piglets is high, a little piglet grows an extra catty, which adds up to more than ten or twenty catties, with an average of three or four yuan a catty, which is nearly 100 yuan, so it really took a lot of effort in those two months.

First of all, let the sow eat well, so that it can milk to feed the piglets. When the piglets grow up slowly, after weaning, they must be fed well and grow strong. At that time, the family did not have money to buy feed, so they used the soil method to grind the rice into rice milk with a stone mill, and then added water to cook it and give it to the piglets. It is not easy to grind more than a dozen catties of rice with a primitive stone mill every day.

And just like a child, it is a long night, and it has to be fed at least once again in the middle. In the middle of the night, I had to boil a big pot of rice milk, then beckon them to eat clean, and then drive them out for convenience, and then coax them home one by one, which would take nearly two hours.

If you want the piglets to eat more, you also have to use your brains, just eat and sleep, and eat when you sleep, although you will grow meat, but then later, you will only eat less and less. What to do, let the piglets have a moderate amount of exercise every day.

Therefore, on Feng Yiping's resume, in addition to herding cattle, there is also a herding of pigs.

The mother pig walked in front first, with a flat belly and some staggering. As it walked, it called at the same time, so a group of white, black, and flowery pigs followed in a pile, and you chased after me, and the little tail flicked and flicked. The mouth is not idle, all the little pigs respond to the mother pig with a similar melody, but you are not neat and very lively.

There is a flat land on the hill, which is usually used for drying. The little ones are in groups of threes and twos, spreading joy in the field, and the mother pig arches her mouth here and there in the grass next to her, and when she is a little tired, she lazily returns to the field and lies down.

As soon as it lay down, the piglets rushed over, you fought for me, and after a while, there was only the sound of smashing, smashing, sucking. It didn't take long for the mother pig to bark, struggle a few times, and lie flat on the ground instead, not feeding.

A few little pigs still arched their stomachs with their small mouths, and the mother pig squinted and ignored them. Seeing that this trick was useless, a little pig ran to the mother's head, calling eagerly, and arched the mother's face with a small mouth, the mother pig was still unmoved, and the little pig continued to sell cuteness there, but the mother pig was impatient, shook her head, and swept the little guy out of a long distance.

The little pig who rolled out for a long time seemed to be a little dizzy, and a little confused, and it lay quietly on the ground for a while before coming back to its senses. It was silent for a moment, it screamed happily, spread its hooves, and ran happily towards the other brothers and sisters. There are only a few left, next to the mother pig, taking a quiet nap.

Whenever this time, there are always some people who stop by to see which one is the biggest, which one is the most lively, which one is the most edible, and which one is the most powerful...... , this is for the future when the catch is so targeted.

In this way, the whole family worked hard for more than two months, and finally, the day of separation came. On a day, the mother pig was locked in the pigsty, the piglets were locked in the house, and the people who had already made an appointment came to the house together, and each grabbed the little pig he liked. If you don't grab what you like, Feng Yiping's family doesn't care, and after the last scale, the piglets are packed in sacks or baskets and carried to their new homes.

From the moment the switch was made, the mother pig was never quiet, calling one after another, walking home again and again, and being pulled back by the rope tied around her neck again and again, but it still worked tirelessly.

The piglets screamed more and more urgently, louder and louder, the call was uneasy and panicked, the mother pig listened, more and more excited, and kept barking, one more urgent, one louder than the other, the cry was full of anxiety and concern.

But in the end, it could only watch in vain as the little piglets were carried away by strangers farther and farther away.

Some piglets struggled to jump up from the basket again and again, with two little legs on the edge of the basket, watching the mother pig keep screaming, or crying, the mother pig rushed in that direction again and again, and every time the rope was tightened and ...... straight.

For many days after that, the sow would always be so sad that she would not even want to eat.

It is strange to say that in the three years when Feng Yiping went to secondary school, that is, the most difficult time for the family, the sows raised were good, rarely sick, and gave birth to more than a dozen in each litter, and the survival rate was also high, which could increase the family's income by nearly 2,000 a year. But after he joined the work, the family continued to raise sows, but there were always such and such troubles, which was not cost-effective, and in the end he never raised sows again.
