62 Chapter 62—Killing the Pig
Chapter 62: Killing the Pig
Yuan Anping is cleaning his house, although the twenty-eighth is the authentic dust removal day, but after all, the sacrifice stove has already passed, now do some first, there is no need to be busy that day.
Zhong Sunrui ran over and said to him excitedly: "Brother Anping, someone wants to kill a pig, do you want to go and see it?"
"Kill pigs?" Yuan Anping put down his broom, "Who killed pigs?"
"I don't know, come with me to see it. "Zhong Sunrui is going to pull him away.
Yuan Anping smiled: "Are you afraid that you will be scared later, and you want to find someone to accompany you?"
was said by him, and Zhong Sunrui didn't feel embarrassed: "I'm afraid that I'll be too scared by then." ”
"What are you going to do if you're scared? Besides, what's so nice about killing a pig, the pig screams miserably. "Yuan Anping remembers that when he was a child, someone killed a pig, and he heard the scream, but he didn't see what was going on, because the children were not allowed to see it.
"Li Zi, they said they could stand far away and see. Of course he wanted to participate in the activities of his friends. Moreover, he had never seen what it was like to kill a pig, and he was very curious.
Yuan Anping saw that he wanted to go, and he didn't intend to disappoint the other party. Take off the dust-proof cloth on your head, "Wait for me, I'll go get some money, and since I've gone to see it, I'll buy New Year's meat by the way." ”
Yuan Anping led Zhong Sunrui out of the door, and asked anyone casually to know who was going to kill the pig, after all, killing the New Year's pig is a big deal.
When Yuan Anping arrived, there were already many people in the courtyard, and the children were driven away by the adults to prevent them from getting closer. After Zhong Sunrui saw someone waving at him, he ran to find his friends, and Yuan Anping, as an adult, was fortunate to be able to watch.
Seeing the pillar greeting him in the crowd, Yuan Anping walked over.
Yuan Anping asked, "You're also here to buy meat?"
With a smile on his face, Zhu said happily: "There are no pigs at home this year, so my father asked me to buy some meat for the New Year." "He has relatives in his family, and when he goes to his grandfather's house, he has to bring a piece of meat.
"How much are you going to buy?" the pillar asked him in a whisper.
Yuan Anping thought for a while and said, "It depends on the situation, if the meat is good, I will buy a pork hind leg and buy some pork ribs." ”
Zhuzi didn't expect him to buy so much, his family was loose this year, and his father only asked him to buy ten catties, part of which was used to go to relatives, and the other part was kept for his own food. But think about Anping is so powerful, he can afford to eat as much meat as he wants.
At this time, the master and a few villagers drove the pig out of the pigsty, perhaps sensing their fate, the pig did not go out alive or dead, and finally a few people got out of the pigsty to get the pig out.
The pig's cry was very sharp, and Yuan Anping listened to it a little harshly. Zhong Sunrui's children, who saw this kind of scene for the first time, were frightened, knowing that it was the first time he came to see it, and the other children didn't laugh at him. A child smiled and told him: "It's okay, you will get used to it after listening too much, and you will kill pigs in a few days, I will take you to see it, and you should practice your courage." ”
Zhong Sunrui didn't want to be thought of as a coward, and when he heard the other party say this, even if he didn't want to go, he still nodded and agreed.
The person in charge of killing the pig is a tall middle-aged man, this person is a professional, specially invited by the villagers, and the pigs to be killed in the village in the next few days will also pass through this person's hands. It is said that the skill of killing pigs is superb, and it is finished with one knife, and there is no need to use a second knife.
After all, it is killing pigs, not as simple as killing chickens, the process is a little tragic, and the screams of pigs are even more deafening. Yuan Anping is an adult after all, but he thinks that the pig barks a little miserably, and Zhong Sunrui's children regret it a little. Although he didn't see the scene of the murder directly, the victim's screams were so intense that he really didn't want to hear the second time. But the problem is that he has promised his friends that he will participate in the next activities. Just thinking about it makes me want to cry.
Seeing that the pig stopped barking and the blood was gone, the pig killer began to pour hot water on the pig, and then plucked the pig's hair. At this time, the host began to ask the onlookers what kind of meat they were going to ask for and how much.
When the pig killer saw Yuan Anping, they knew that he must have come to buy meat, otherwise how could he come to join in this kind of fun.
"Anping, how much are you going to want?"
Yuan Anping glanced at the pig, the pig here is not like modern times, it is often hundreds of catties or even heavier, because he is reluctant to feed things, it is very remarkable to be able to raise a hundred catties of fat pigs a year, this head is obviously not more than a hundred: "I want a hind leg, and then give me ten catties of ribs." ”
Seeing that Yuan Anping asked for a lot, the main family was also very happy: "Okay." ”
When the people on the side heard the amount that Yuan Anping wanted, they were somewhat envious in their hearts.
Plucking pig hair, disemboweling, and removing pork, Yuan Anping saw that the pig killer chopped off the pig's head neatly. The pig's head is generally left by the master's family, and there is his attention in this. Yuan Anping thought about whether to buy a pig's head, thinking that no one in the village would sell it, and if he wanted to buy it, he had to go to the county seat, and it was troublesome, so he thought about it.
There is no such thing as killing pigs here, and I am not willing to eat so luxuriously. Therefore, Yuan Anping naturally had no chance to taste the legendary pig-killing dish.
When dividing the pork, Yuan Anping beckoned Zhong Sunrui to come, and when he saw that his expression was not as happy as when he came, he knew that he must have been frightened by the pig's cry. He smiled and said, "Isn't it as interesting as I imagined." ”
Zhong Sun Rui nodded weakly: "I still have to listen." ”
Yuan Anping raised his eyebrows, and didn't ask him why he was looking for guilt: "Go home and find a basket, I forgot to bring it." He wanted to buy meat, but he forgot to bring a basket, and he couldn't go back with the pork leg, not to mention that he also asked for another rib.
After paying the money, Yuan Anping bought a few pieces of pig's blood from the master's family, and finally got the meat home with the help of the pillar.
After going back, because Zhuzi also bought meat, Yuan Anping didn't share his meat, but gave him some pig blood, which doesn't look worthwhile, but the stir-fry is delicious.
Huo Xiaohan looked at the big pork leg and the ribs in the basket, and was a little surprised: "Buy so much!"
Yuan Anping washed his hands: "It's not much, it's always more luxurious for the New Year." While it's fresh, let's stew pork ribs at noon and eat them, just like last time, add some radish. Well...... Fry some small crispy meat in the afternoon. ”
Yuan Anping's "luxury" they have learned a lot, although they think it is really extravagant, but he has the final say.
Yuan Anping carried a pig's leg home, and the people in the village naturally discussed it.
Some people are envious: "A big pork leg and a lot of pork ribs, Anping is really willing." ”
Someone laughed: "I think he was carried to Huo Xiaohan, so how can he be reluctant." ”
It seems that Huo Xiaohan is also blessed. ”
…………
"The one who was carried to Huo Xiaohan? Anping's husband also lives there. ”
It seems that in addition to Huo Xiaohan, it is still to honor his husband. ”
"Mr. Filial Piety, that's as it should be. You said, our children learn words from Yuan Anping, do you want to give some New Year's gifts to show it? ”
"I'm afraid he won't take it. ”
"Whether to watch him or not, whether to send it or not is our mind. ”
Some people think that there is truth in this.
Therefore, the direction of discussion has changed from the two or three things that Yuan Anping and Huo Xiaohan had to say, to what gifts should be given, which is completely crooked.
And the most suffocating person after this incident belonged to Yuan Genshuo's family, not to mention that the idea of not cheating the money, but also suffering, hearing that Yuan Anping spent so much money, he couldn't help but grit his teeth: "Why is he lucky!"
Fang Hua felt even more uncomfortable, if it weren't for the wrong medicine, not to mention more, the consultation money that Yuan Anping gave to Dr. Lin would be enough for them to buy a lot of meat, covering his face that had been beaten just now, and lamenting in his heart: I'm really unlucky!
Huo Xiasheng is the most direct one, after he heard that Yuan Anping sent a lot of meat to Huo Xiaohan, he wanted to find Huo Xiaohan, if the money is not available, the meat will always arrive.
Yuan Anping looked at Huo Xiasheng, who was standing outside the door with an arrogant expression: "You want to find Xiao Han? I remember that you don't seem to have anything to do with him?"
Huo Xiasheng said: "I'm his third brother, why doesn't it matter?"
Yuan Anping knew that the other party was unreasonable and thick-skinned enough, so arguing with him was a waste of energy. He plans to close the door directly, if the other party dares to break in, then don't blame him for being polite.
Huo Xiaohan knew that Huo Xia was looking for trouble, and he was angry, but he also knew that it would not work like this, so he came out and said to Yuan Anping: "Brother Anping, I'll talk to him." ”
Seeing his determined expression, Yuan Anping stepped aside: "Okay." ”
Huo Xiasheng was not afraid that Huo Xiaohan would talk to him, if Huo Xiaohan didn't come out to see him, it would be troublesome, and he might not be Yuan Anping's opponent if he really fought. Besides, he is not really stupid, if he really dares to fight with Yuan Anping, no one in the village will spare him.
After Huo Xiaohan went out, he asked calmly, "What are you looking for me for?"
"I heard that Yuan Anping sent you a lot of meat, you can get me some. Afraid that Huo Xiaohan wouldn't give it, he continued: "Even if you don't think about me, you have to think about our father, right?"
Knowing that there was nothing good about him, Huo Xiaohan looked at him with a flat expression: "I'll tell you again, you, and you, have nothing to do with me." Don't forget, the money you set for your relatives is the money you sold me. ”
"Don't say anything so ugly. Huo Xiasheng said in an indifferent tone: "You were seriously ill at that time, and someone was willing to pay you for medical treatment, of course we were willing." You know that our family is poor, you are so sick, how can you have the money to see a doctor. Yuan Anping is willing to treat you, and threatens to break off your relatives first, and our father and mother can't see you sick or dead. ”
Huo Xiaohan was immediately angry when he heard that he actually blamed Yuan Anping for the fault: "Get out! Why do you have the face to say that! You treat me as a fool! Huo Xiasheng I'll tell you again, we have nothing to do with me in the future, your father and mother have nothing to do with me, even if I die in the future, it has nothing to do with your Huo family! So if you want silver and meat, you care about others! Don't come to me in the future!"
"You have a temper, don't you!" Huo Xiaohan's rebellious attitude made Huo Xiasheng angry, "What, if you have a man, you don't want a father?
Yuan Anping was listening in the courtyard, but found that Huo Xiasheng's tone was wrong, so he hurriedly ran out, just in time to see Huo Xiasheng swinging his fist to hit Huo Xiaohan, he shouted: "Huo Xiasheng, you dare!"
Yuan Anping ran to block Huo Xiaohan behind him, and said with a cold face: "Huo Xiasheng, when I gave the money that day, I said it clearly, the patriarch and the clan elders are here, don't be thick-skinned here." If you don't take the words of the patriarch and the patriarch seriously, do you really want to offend them?"
Huo Xia was annoyed: "Don't use the village chief and clan elders to scare me! Yuan Anping, aren't you just relying on yourself to teach the village children to read? What is so great about you!"
"I didn't fight anything, I didn't think I was amazing, and I didn't scare you with the village chief and clan elders, I am warning you, if you dare to threaten Xiao Han again, I will beat you to death!" As he spoke, he said to Huo Xiaohan: "Xiao Han, go into the courtyard." ”
"I ......" Huo Xiaohan was worried.
"It's useless for you to stay here. ”
Huo Xiaohan took a few steps back, but he was reluctant to go back to the courtyard.
Seeing this, Yuan Anping didn't say anything anymore, pulled out his sleeves and said to Huo Xiasheng: "Aren't you looking for trouble? ”
Huo Xiasheng saw that he looked like he was going to fight, "You wait for me!" and left after saying a cruel word.
Huo Xiaohan was a little surprised: "He just left?"
Yuan Anping tugged at his sleeves: "It seems that he is not so stupid." ”
Huo Xiaohan was a little reluctant: "I'm sorry, I hurt it." ”
Yuan Anping's tone was casual: "Don't care, it's nothing." Don't stand here, I'm still waiting to eat the ribs. ”
"Then I'll do it now. ”
Regarding Huo Xiaohan's legacy problems, Yuan Anping can think about it, who can not have a bad relative. What's more, now that this relative doesn't have the name of a relative, at most he has nothing to do to disgust him. If you really can't do it, you will suffer a small loss, which is nothing. 166 Reading Network
