Chapter Seventy-Four: In Heat

And this is still Li Ming's habit of bringing more cash with him every time he goes out, otherwise, he may not be able to cope with it.

In the end, Li Ming only had a few hundred yuan in his wallet.

This made him sigh, fortunately he received some New Year's money today.

However, this is also related to Li Ming's filial piety to his grandmother and the second grandmother of 500 yuan respectively.

In Li Ming's view, he has already come out to work, and it is appropriate to give the old people some pocket money.

Maybe Li Ming's second grandmother didn't think of it!

She had just given Li Ming New Year's money, and Li Ming immediately returned five hundred pocket money to her.

At first, she didn't accept anything she said, saying: "You just came out, what money do you have, Grandma doesn't want you, you have to save money to marry a daughter-in-law, and give birth to a great-grandson for Grandma in the future!"

made Li Ming cry and laugh on the spot.

However, Li Ming's stubbornness is notoriously known, and in the end, the second grandmother can only accept it helplessly.

Li Ming's grandmother just excused herself, and then accepted it.

Maybe it's because I feel that Li Ming's family has always been very good to me, and Li Ming's grandmother has also begun to slowly get better for Li Ming's family.

It's no longer the same as before, just with a somewhat coping smile on his face, and he has begun to take some substantive actions.

Li Ming listened to his father say that sometimes when Grandma Li went to the county seat, she would think about bringing some things to Li Ming's house, although they were not valuable, just some things like water tempeh, water chili peppers, sweet wine, and so on.

But at least, it's a good change.

You must know that in the past, Grandma Li would not go to Li Ming's house if she had nothing to do, and she would not think about bringing anything to Li Ming's house.

As the number of people began to increase slowly, even Li Ming's uncle had already carried water.

Now, in a vacant lot not far in front of the old tiled house, there are several plastic water tanks filled with water, which were all brought by Li Ming's uncle and several helpers who had already started to fetch water from the well before Li Ming and the others arrived.

In addition to these. There is also a fire pit that has been built, and a cauldron has been set up on it, and the charcoal fire in the pit has been burning, and the water in the cauldron has been steaming, especially in this winter, it is particularly clear.

Next, Li Ming watched a group of people go to the pigsty and tie the selected pig with hemp rope and pull it out, perhaps because the pig also had a premonition and had been struggling.

However, the strength of five or six strong men together was not something it could resist.

Although the pig's struggle has not stopped. However, it is already meat waiting to be slaughtered on the cutting board, and it is useless to struggle in vain.

The end result was that the pig was tied to a small wooden ladder, carried on a large wooden table, and then killed.

After that, Li Ming didn't go to see it, and it was not interesting to watch the killing of pigs, from childhood to adulthood, Li Ming didn't know how many times he had seen it.

Why don't you go to TV?

Now Li Ming went to the small bungalow to watch TV.

The only TV in the old house was in this small bungalow.

It was bought by Li's father for Grandma Li, and Li Ming's grandmother didn't know how many times she inadvertently mentioned who bought the TV in the village. I don't have a TV at home, so I can't watch these things if I want to.

No, half a year ago, Dad Li bought one out of his own pocket. Delivered to the village.

"Passing ......"

"Auntie......"

Looking at the Tianlong Babu on TV, Li Ming didn't have any opinions.

It's just that whoever watches a TV series with dozens of people in a room feels weird!

At present, every household in the village has not yet been able to have a television set. It's not that they can't afford it, but many families are reluctant to spend this money.

For many, it's not about spending money on a TV. It is better to buy more seeds or fodder to feed the livestock.

Moreover, in many cases, they do not even have to buy more fodder, and almost all of the children in the family who are still studying go to the fields or mountains after school to cut the wild vegetables and young grass to feed the family's livestock.

In their opinion, they generally don't do things that have input but little real income.

Just as you have planted a crop and can sell it for your own use or for money after you have harvested it, the same is true for your livestock.

And like TV, in addition to watching, it seems that it is really useless, and you have to pay electricity bills.

The most important thing is that many families in the village think that as long as anyone in the village has a TV set, they can watch it when they want to, so that they can watch it without having to spend their own money.

So, in the village, there will always be such a situation.

That is, when people with TV sets are watching TV, it doesn't take long for a group of people to gather together to watch it.

Of course, the vast majority are children.

However, Li Ming is very unaccustomed to watching TV in such a situation, the environment is one thing, and the main problem is that it is a little noisy.

When those children are watching TV, they often like to talk, and sometimes even those adults like to interject a few words.

And their discussion of the TV series is real noise for Li Ming.

Compared with this, Li Ming prefers to watch TV quietly in a quiet environment.

He didn't mind if there were too many people, but the sound of the conversation was almost overpowering the sound of the TV.

It's like having a myriad of flies 'buzzing' in your ears.

In addition, in such a narrow space, so many people gather together, there will always be a variety of flavors mixed together, obviously it is winter, but it has a sultry feeling like summer.

There are also some adults who love to eat cigarettes, they are spitting smoke and spitting smoke, or the unique leaf smoke, even Li Ming feels that he can't stand it anymore.

No, Li Ming could only walk out.

As soon as he went out, Li Ming felt a lot colder, of course, compared to the inside, the air outside was countless times better.

The somewhat groggy feeling that had been created in it was swept away.

Li Ming himself feels that his spirit is much better now.

Li Ming looked at the vacant land, and it was almost time to kill the pigs, and now he was already preparing to dismember.

Obviously, the pig hair had been taken care of by them, and there were countless pig hairs floating in the boiling hot water right now.

At this time, one of the people who killed the pig shouted, "Bring the basin and ......."

The specific Li Ming didn't fully hear it, but he did understand one sentence, that is, they needed a clean big basin.

Li Ming was not idle, and immediately took a clean large basin from an aunt who was helping beside him and brought it over.

"Bring the pot!"

The man was also direct, and when he saw Li Ming coming over with the basin, he directly called Li Ming to give him the basin.

At this time, someone else pulled into the belly of the pig.

Before Li Ming could figure it out, the man took out a handful of congealed blood-red pig blood, and in his hand, it was still emitting heat.

The man stuffed the pig's blood into his mouth, like drinking water, and swallowed a piece of blood in his stomach: "This pig's blood is comfortable!"

With this person's movements, several other people also took out a piece of blood and swallowed it alive.

One of them said to Li Ming: "Little Li Ming, come too, this pig's blood is very comfortable!"

Li Ming shook his head with a smile and said, "I'll wait for a while to eat barbecue, this will be waived!"

The man said, "Okay, the second uncle will leave you a good piece of fine meat for you to roast in a while!"

Li Ming nodded.

Li Ming didn't know why, these people who killed pigs in these villages sometimes when they were killing pigs, they would directly swallow the raw blood taken from this pig like now.

Logically speaking, this is unhygienic behavior, but no one cares here.

Moreover, for so many years, I have never seen anyone get sick because of such a raw blood swallow.

However, this may only happen at this time when the pig has just been killed to remove Xuewang, and nothing else, but no one will have anything to do to swallow Xuewang alive.

For Xuewang, Li Ming's name here is very earthy and appropriate, and they are all directly called pig blood.

Li Ming seemed to think of something, and said: "Second uncle, you kill the pig, can you leave the pig's brain marrow to me for a while!"

The second uncle laughed: "This pig belongs to yours, what can you do!"

Li Ming smiled: "Aren't I afraid that any of you want this pig brain?"

The second uncle waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, leave it to you!"

Li Ming is here to help, so where to go if there is a shortage of people!

No, after a while, Mother Li, who saw Li Ming, asked Li Ming to cut potatoes.

Looking at the big pot of potatoes, Li Ming was also drunk, and he didn't know when he would be able to cut it.

It's a busy place, killing pigs, washing vegetables, and people going to fetch water, and the water that is already full in the morning is getting less and less.

It's not just Li Ming who is helping, but even his cousin Li Xingpeng is now carrying a flat shoulder to the well to fetch water.

"Xingping, come and peel potatoes with me!"

Looking at his cousin who was on the side and had nothing to do now, Li Ming directly called him to do things with him.

Li Xingping was very obedient, and one day Li Ming greeted him and walked up immediately.

Li's mother was also washing vegetables in a large basin with several villagers on the other side.

These things were all brought from the county seat by Li's mother, who had already called Li Ming yesterday, from the county seat this morning.

Daddy Li didn't do anything, just chatted with the people who came here.

The village, which was originally quiet at the beginning, has now become a little lively because of Li Ming's family killing pigs.

Li Ming also saw that beside a fire not far away, five or six old people were drinking with their fists, including Li Ming's second grandfather. (To be continued......)
