Guo went really out of strength, he sat here and waited, while Guo Xiaoqing ran back and asked someone to carry the wild boar.

At this time, the tense atmosphere has gone to Guo Qu, the sequelae have come out, and the whole body hurts, but the most painful thing is the buttocks, which is the pain of the heart, and the pain is so painful that Guo Qu has been gasping for air.

I want to collect firewood to make a fire, but where can I find dry firewood here? It's all dry firewood that is wet with ice and snow, and it can't be burned.

No, I sat for a while, I couldn't stand the cold, I got up and walked up the mountain, and there was a cliff on the top of the hill.

There are many mountains in Guizhou Province like this, one after another, and each mountain is higher than the other.

Back to the bottom of the cliff, the firewood has been extinguished, fortunately there is a lot of dry firewood here, a small back basket is haphazardly loaded, and then the small horse and other luggage are put into the back basket, and the burned sweet potatoes are put into the pocket, and then the backpack full of luggage and dry firewood is heavy in the other back basket, and then the two backpacks are carried down the mountain and returned to the trap.

Swept away the snow, vacated a small piece of land, spread hay, rekindled the fire, lit a small fire, and the long-lost warm feeling returned to Guo Qu.

Feeling a little hungry, he took out a sweet potato from his pocket and ate it, only then did he have time to take a look at the wild boar not far away, at this time the wild boar was lying on the ground panting, and it was estimated that there was only the strength to pant, and the blood flowing from the three hooves stained a large piece of snow red.

After waiting for about an hour, the villagers came, the old man, Guo Gang, Changjiang and Guo Xiaoqing, and an uncle in the village, the five people should be able to get the wild boar back, and after lifting it to the ridge, roll the wild boar all the way downhill, saving time and effort.

When I returned home, it was already past noon, and Uncle Guo came to soup the pig with a pig-killing knife on his back. This time he was not just a soup boar, because the old man decided to burn the big fat pig in the family as well.

I don't know if there is such a custom in other places, butchers do not kill pigs on Thursdays and Saturdays, and at other times to kill pigs, they also have to take out incense and paper money, stain a little pig blood, and then burn incense and paper on the roadside.

Guo Qu is in charge of this, although the wild boar is already dead when it is carried home, its body is still hot, Guo Qu Uncle stabbed the wild boar in the neck, releasing the pig blood in its body.

Guo went to hurriedly dipped a little pig blood with paper money, and then lit it, this is a custom, although he is not superstitious, but if he can do it, he will try to do it.

Soup pig, belly breaking, intestine turning, meat cutting, cooking, stir-frying, a whole set of time came to five or six o'clock in the afternoon.

In the past, other families would call the villagers to eat soup and meat when they killed pigs, but now it is Guo Qu's turn, and it is naturally no exception, so when the busiest time has passed, Guo Qu has to go door to door to call people to eat.

This is a bit like serving the ancestors, when the meal is ready, you have to invite someone to eat, but other people's families have also "served" the villagers, so this can be regarded as paying off debts.

There are no blood relatives in the village, generally one person from the family, and if there is a blood relationship, the whole family is present, which should be regarded as the most lively time in the village in addition to the banquet.

There are seven tables, no more, no less than fifty-six people, and more than 30 catties of meat have been eaten, but this is nothing, the family has gone to eat at other houses these days, and there are always 30 catties.

Speaking of this soup meat, in terms of material, that is, food, in fact, it is not profitable or loss, but it is different spiritually, after working hard for more than half a year, it is rare to have such an opportunity to contact feelings, this is a gathering to promote the unity of the villagers.

The people of the city were rich, but they were spiritually barren, and they had to guard against everything, and they built a high strength on the door of their hearts, so that the friendship between the neighbors was cut off by high walls.

Rural people are different, although they are poor, they are spiritually satisfied, even if there is any dispute between neighbors, it will not be long before the hatred fades.

Even when killing the New Year's pig every year, he will still ask people to eat, and others will naturally not come, so he will be reconciled.

It is very lively, more lively than the New Year's Festival, because this is a gathering of the whole village, so all kinds of meat jokes, all kinds of "children", "hemp and wheat skin" have come out, although it is a scolding word, but the smile on everyone's face is brighter.

The happy time always passes quickly, and when everyone is almost gone, the earthen bowls in the house are like mountains.

But that's not all, the people who helped carry the wild boar today, especially the uncle from the village, couldn't just eat a meal, and had to carry two or three catties of wild boar meat to people anyway.

As for the Yangtze River, just ask him to eat a few more meals at home.

In other words, Changjiang is already Guo Qu's family, and he usually takes him to do anything, he is completely a coolie, and he is stupid, but Guo Qu can't help but be authentic, so Changjiang has been eating in his own house for the past few months, and even Guo Qu has given Changjiang a few sets of new clothes, which is worthy of him.

Guo went to treat the Yangtze River like this, and everyone in the village saw it, and the three brothers of the Yangtze River naturally had nothing to say.

The time of the wax moon is like a mountain spring that is dingdong, which is pleasant. There is no way, basically eating soup meat every day, that day is naturally satisfying, so that before I know it, it will be the end of the year.

On the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, there are still two days left for the New Year, Guo Qu is very happy, this is the happiest year he is about to have since he remembers, because his family is there, it is a reunion year in the real sense.

It was still the twenty-eighth of the lunar month, but it was noon, Guo went to change the girl into new clothes, combed the pigtails, and dressed up beautifully, so he hugged the girl and happily went to the street.

"Wow, my sister is so pretty. Guo Qu's pompous performance caused the girl to giggle.

"Girl. ”

"Hmm. ”

"What do you want to eat? ”

"I want sugar, I want poop, I want ......" The girl was very polite and said everything she could think of.

"Buy!" "The New Year is over, and there should be a celebration, and the custom here is that the wishes of children during the New Year will be fulfilled for them as much as possible.

On the street, the flow of people is particularly large, these days is no longer divided into the market day and not the market day, because there are a lot of people who buy New Year's goods, and people who are usually reluctant to spend money will go to the street to buy something anyway.

Even if the family is poor, they can't afford to buy delicious food, but no matter what, they will buy a few sticks of incense and a few catties of paper money, and even if they eat less, they have to buy some firecrackers and the like.

During the Chinese New Year, incense and paper money should be used to burn and worship ancestors, and as for firecrackers, people who are too poor at this time can not put them off.

When it comes to the grave on the first day of the new year, incense, paper money, and firecrackers are necessary, because the ancestors are in the hearts of the villagers, which is a very important emotional sustenance.

These important things are bought even by those who are usually reluctant to spend a penny, not to mention Guo.
