Chapter 14 to compensate
14. Someone steals food
In front of Aishi, stands Tang Dahu, the grandson of the big daddy's family. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Big Daddy is Tang Ailian's grandfather's brother, although he only has one son, Tang Tusheng, but Tang Tusheng's wife is very fertile, a total of five, and, except for the third is a girl, the others are boys.
This little tiger is the youngest grandson of the big daddy's family, and he is one year younger than Aishi. Because he is Lao Man, he is the most favored by Lao Tzu, and he is usually used to being domineering at home, and he will not be restrained outside.
At this moment, Xiaohu was still holding a pig's foot shell in his hand, and the expression on his face was very disdainful: "What if you pick it up first? This pig's foot shell is whoever picks it up, you have the ability to grab it!"
Ai Shi's face was very humiliated, she was robbed of something by someone younger than herself, she was very shameless, if she wasn't still carrying her sister on her back, she would have wanted to pounce and fight with Xiaohu, who was taller than her.
Each toe on the trotters has a hard shell, although the hoof toe shell is hard. When the production team kills pigs, the general foot shell is not to be discarded, the dog likes to eat it very much, and sometimes, the children who have no meat to eat also take it back to burn it soft and grind their teeth slowly, or use it to make toys.
Therefore, many times, when the production team kills pigs, children like to stay next to the dog to grab the pig's toe shell, in the 60s, if the rural children get such a pig's toe shell burned soft teeth, it is also a rare delicacy.
This time, it should be Aishi who picked up a pig's foot shell, but was robbed by Tang Xiaohu. not only robbed it, but also pushed Aishi down fiercely, and Ai Lian was crushed.
Thinking of the three-year disaster, Tang Ailian had a headache.
In the area of Longtou Village, there will be a major flood in the first half of next year, and all the paddy fields in the whole village will become a sea except for the houses that have no water on the high ground. After the water receded, although some grain was harvested, the overall output was greatly reduced.
However, in the first half of '59, although there was a major flood and the rice harvest was greatly reduced, if the output was truthfully reported, there was no need to hand over surplus grain, and boiling porridge and wild vegetables could barely last a year.
The saddest thing was in the '60s, when there was a very rare drought, and the small river next to the village had no water since it stopped flowing in winter, and only the big river two miles away from the village still had water.
In the first half of '60, except for the sweet potatoes on the riverside woodland, the other paddy fields near the river only harvested less than 20%. Far from the water source, the grains have not been harvested. Although there is a harvest of red peanuts and other crops in the dry land, it is not enough to meet the food rations of the whole village.
What made the production captain Long Jiusheng most depressed was that although the production team suffered a flood in 59 and the grain output of the production team was greatly reduced, the commune secretary asked their leading production team to report a bumper harvest in the year of the disaster.
It's just that the harvest is not so easy to report, and if it is reported, the surplus grain must be handed over. It is said that the disaster was more serious in other places than in Longtou Village of the Ninth Commune, and the purpose of the grain transfer was to carry forward the feelings of revolutionary brothers and help each other. Later, when they encountered a catastrophe, they were able to bring food from other places. As a result, Longtou Village almost only kept the rations until the autumn harvest of '60, and all the other grains were transferred away.
Therefore, in the second half of the 60s, when the paddy field crops were not harvested, and the superiors failed to transfer grain to them from other places, the whole village scolded Captain Long Jiusheng, and Captain Jiusheng was eager to smash the sky with a stone.
That year, although no one starved to death in the village, the bark and grass roots in the mountains behind the village were eaten up.
Tang Ailian thought, how could she, a baby who was only more than four months old and less than five months old, remind Long Jiusheng, the young captain, to prepare early?
At the moment when Tang Ailian was in a trance, she actually forgot to cry, and her sister Aishi also slowly accepted her crying, Tang Ailian noticed that she didn't know when her uncle Tang Xiaolong came, and Tang Xiaolong took back the pig's trotter toe shell that Tang Xiaohu snatched back and gave it to Aishi.
Tang Xiaolong also scared Tang Xiaohu: "Next time, let me see you bullying the Aishi sisters, I will beat you so that the fifth master can't recognize the sixth master." ā
Although the eldest father has four male grandchildren, in terms of fighting, none of the five of them can beat the little uncle, so although the pig's trotter toe shell that Xiaohu snatched from Aishi was robbed, he only stared dryly and did not dare to fight with Xiaolong.
Finally lined up to divide the meat, the rules of meat division are first according to the head, one pound per adult, half a pound per child per child, and then according to the division of work, every thousand points can be divided into a pound of pork.
Tang Ailian's five adults and three children were divided into six and a half catties of pork according to their heads, and the whole family earned 7,520 points, and also divided seven and a half catties of pork, a total of 14 catties of pork, and 20 points of labor to get a piece of pig intestine.
Seeing the pork that Tang Xiaolong brought back, Mrs. Tang was very dissatisfied, because the meat was much lean and less fat. And at this time, fatty meat is a dime a pound more expensive than lean meat.
The pork will be cured and eaten during the Chinese New Year. However, the large intestine of the pig can be eaten on the same day.
I haven't smelled meat for a long time, and today because of the killing of New Year's pigs, the smell of meat wafts out of every house. Tang Ailian smelled this smell and couldn't help drooling.
It's a pity that she hasn't opened meat yet, and she can't eat today's pig intestine.
At the beginning, Ai Shi and Ai Wen Lao surrounded Mrs. Tang to cook the pig's intestine, but were driven away by Mrs. Tang, Ai Shi felt that her swallowing action was very small, so she carried Tang Ailian out of the kitchen, went to the back door, and went to play with Tang Xiaohua, the daughter of the little daddy's house next door.
Before leaving, she also pulled away Aiwen, whose eyes were reluctant to be pulled out of the pig's large intestine.
It's just that she didn't expect that this time she left, she was taken advantage of and wronged.
Mrs. Tang saw that the pig's large intestine had been cooked, and shouted, "Ah Shi, go and pinch the green onion back." ā
It's just that Aishi is playing with Xiaohua jumping grid, where can I hear it?
Mrs. Tang didn't hear the answer, and couldn't help scolding: "When you don't need people, you all surround me, and when you use people, you disappear one by one." ā
After scolding, she put the fire on the fire, cleaned the door of the stove again, so that the fire would not burn out and burn the wood, and then went out of the kitchen and went to the vegetable garden to pinch the green onions.
Tang Ailian's telekinesis scanned around as usual, and suddenly, she found that a person had entered the kitchen, he looked around, and immediately ran to the stove, took chopsticks and ate the pig's intestines in the pot.
The man ate one piece after another, until he heard footsteps outside, and the man saw that only half of the pig's intestine was left in the pot, and then he put down his chopsticks and ran.
Of course, the man thought that he was unaware, but he didn't know that Tang Ailian had already seen all this clearly.
