Strength? Yes, most men do this for interest, and he Donglin Xuanyuan uses strength! In his mind, if a man can't do this, it's because he doesn't have enough strength.

Dong Xiaoman has always liked auspicious days to please a good fortune, so this time he still set the opening time on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

All the members of the Retreat Pavilion had to live in this cold place without any customers, and the turmoil inside and outside the city seemed to be much better.

It is said that the imperial court sent courtiers from the side of the Lord's reconciliation to this side, and reached a consensus with the Tatars who did not know what to do. It is estimated that money and food were given, so that both the people on the border and the one in the dynasty could have a good year.

As civilians, they don't care, anyway, they can't afford to pay for the disaster, they don't care.

On the first day of the lunar month, the pig and sheep were slaughtered in the valley, and the scene was unprecedentedly lively.

The pig is a little piglet raised more than half a year ago, and now it is fat and strong enough to be slaughtered. The men sharpened their knives and rushed towards the fat pigs and fat sheep, while the women distributed the pickles they had made from door to door according to Dong Xiaoman's request.

People respect Erlang and his wife and are willing to regard Xiaoyao Valley as their home, because it is no different from the gods.

Dong Xiaoman turned this place into his own private space, and he lived the life of a rich man.

People work every day according to the division of labor, and when the day comes, they have their own stewards to pay monthly money. Not only that, but there are also fixed grains, vegetables, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and cloth sent every month. It can be said that this is a big factory that manages food and housing, and it is much better than farming and raising a family.

"Kill the pig, kill the pig!" Today, everyone who kills pigs doesn't have to cook. Everyone went to the square to eat pig-killing dishes with the valley owner's family and the stewards. Then divide a few catties of pork and keep it for your own small family for the New Year.

The person in charge of killing the pig was Guo Yidao, who had been a butcher. is talking about his superb skills, and now he has become Dong Xiaoman's royal red case master.

The people drove out the fat pigs in the pens, tied all four hooves of the pigs, and made a trotter buckle, so that the more the pig struggled, the tighter the buckle. Aware of the danger, the pig began to let out an extremely wailing sound, which resounded terribly to the bottom.

At this time, Guo Yidao waved his hand at several pig bearers, and closed the pig's mouth and tied it tightly with hemp rope. Then scraped the pig's neck with a knife, Dong Xiaoman looked at it from the side, and thought that this should be the place to go under the knife.

Guo Yidao's son took a large wooden basin. This is a basin to contain pig's blood, and the father and son cooperate tacitly, and when the father shouted, the bright knife stabbed the pig's throat.

A stab from the throat to the tip of the heart, a fatal knife immediately stopped the sound of howling. Blood gurgled down the knife and poured hot air into the basin on the ground. Xiao Guo held a wooden stick and kept stirring to prevent the blood from clotting and not making a blood sausage.

Dong Xiaoman grew up in the Northeast in his previous life, and many of his living habits are based on the memories of his previous life. The people here eat sheep and pigs and don't eat the water, Dong Xiaoman solemnly explained to Guo Yidao that there was a procedure for retaining pig blood.

Dong Xiaoman instructed someone to take the pig's blood to the kitchen, and explained that the pig's blood must be kept hot and not cold.

After explaining clearly, I saw that Guo Yidao had already made a big long opening in the pig's trotters and stabbed it with a long wooden stick. Until the stick reaches the front leg of the pig.

Dong Xiaoman frowned and didn't know what he was going to do, but he saw Guo stabbing on the left and stabbing on the right. Then he lowered his head and opened his mouth to start blowing into the mouth. In a short time, the leg of the pig swelled.

Xiao Guo kept beating the pig with a stick, which should have allowed the air to flow quickly to all parts of the pig.

At this time, the pig, which had been blown up like a ball, was carried to the cauldron with boiling water, and everyone threw the pig into the boiling water and began to remove its hair.

Dong Xiaoman knew what a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water this time, and he saw that people were familiar with pouring pigs' heads and trotters with boiling water, and brushing their hairs with a brush while pouring it. Then a shaved white pig appeared in front of everyone.

As he was about to begin disemboweling, the white pig was lifted onto the board. Rinse it several times with cold water and shave the fine hairs with a knife until there is no hair at all.

First remove the pig's head, pig's trotters and pig's tail, and after taking these away, everyone comes up to hold the pig's knuckle, which is the pig's thigh, which has no pig's trotters.

The big white pig lying flat without trotters and pig's head was cut from the headless neck to the tail by a sharp knife.

After the skin was opened to reveal the meat, the pig fat popped out all of a sudden, Guo Yidao drew with his fingers and smiled at Dong Xiaoman, who covered his mouth and rolled his eyes disgustingly: "This fat is quite thick, it seems that we haven't served it in vain this year!" ”

After disemboweling, Guo Yidao took out the pig heart, pig liver, pork belly, pig intestines, pig kidneys, and pig lungs one after another, and put them in a large basin for people to take away.

Then start chopping the meat, the fat white oil is white oil, and the ribs, loin, and back are all clean.

Dong Xiaoman's order is to remove the bones and save the flesh, and not give up anything that can enter the mouth.

People who kill pigs generally like to give all the pigs water to the guests when they come, and Dong Xiaoman ordered all the big pigs to be served.

That is, such a strong big fat pig must all enter the mouth of the given position today, and the meat of everyone is the back of the pigs.

Those who understand work harder, and whoever is so generous has a good life.

There was a big bone broth boiling in the kitchen, and Dong Xiaoman instructed everyone not to cook pork into a big stew.

Braised pork belly, braised elbow, pork trotters in sauce, sweet and sour loin, fat sausage, pork blood sausage, husband and wife lung slices, fried kidney flower with green onions, stewed pork heart with fungus, stewed pork ribs and pork liver noodles with carrots.

Men, women and children sit separately, and the old people drink and chat together and lament the changes in life; The men drank and ate meat together, and they were funny; The women feasted and drank to their heart's content, chatting about their daily routines; Children, you chase me, laugh and laugh.

Erlang and Tiansheng and the others kept drinking, and they couldn't resist the people who came to toast and thank them.

"How good, it's like the New Year." Erya sighed.

"These years are the New Year, and I am not as satisfied as I am today. In the past, I always felt that I was getting older, but today I feel that the future is quite promising. After Dong Xiaoman finished speaking, he got up and prepared to leave the banquet and go back to his room to rest.

She felt that she had hope, and it seemed that she could live the life of a legendary wealthy family. There is a lot of silver to be extravagant, there are mansions and fertile fields, and a few slaves and maids, and every day they think about how to pass the time instead of thinking about how to make money to make ends meet.

Looking at the backs of Dong Xiaoman, Huanhuan, Erya, Mrs. Shen and Shen Man who left the table, the ladies began to talk about gossip one after another.

"People are all fate, I heard that this lady is also an ordinary person."

"Look at the Shen family, who is also known as Madame, but they just read two more days than us. Now you can make wine at home and be the same as us, in the end, it is a celebrity. ”

Some women are not happy that Mrs. Shen is pampered all day long, but everyone can eat and drink for nothing with the help of wine.

The women who love gossip have played all kinds of conjectures: "The girl in their family seems to be on good terms with Santan, and she will be a relative of the emperor and the country in the future, and she will be the same as us?" ”

There is a woman here who walks very close to Yueniang on weekdays, and occasionally likes to go out of the valley to buy a rouge gouache by herself.

Her name is Ruonan, and she also has a temper and a heart with Yueniang. Usually the two of them looked at Huanhuan wearing gorgeous clothes and expensive jewelry, but now they see a Shen Man who climbed into the sky just because he recognized his own words, and he became more and more unpleasant.

"If you say that the eldest lady is just that, she is a serious daughter. What do you see that Suman has? All day long, she learned that the eldest lady covered her face with a curtain, as if she was a fairy who was afraid of what others would seem. This man thinks that the people who cover his face are fairy daughters, and they are tied to the eldest lady and plays with the eldest lady all day long. I thought it was also the best girl, hehe! Ruonan couldn't help but sneer

"Who will pick up the old man all day long?" As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately laughed unkindly.

"Hey, this has climbed up to a few masters in this valley, and in the future, the emperor's relatives can eat and drink spicy food." A tall woman with a red face and palms like a fan said.

"If you want to say that Lu Niangzi is true, if Yueniang marries any of the housekeepers in this valley, won't she be the lady in charge. A-Yao was on an errand in the inn in Pingliang City, and the number of ...... a month was "There is a daughter-in-law who knows, and she stretched out a finger with an exaggerated face.

"A hundred pennies?" Ruonan's eyes widened and he asked in disbelief, a woman can make so much money in a month.

"Wrong, it's a thousand dollars, a tael of silver." As soon as these words came out, they immediately received a flood of doubts.

The women were stunned, surprised, and incredulous, and their loud voices pierced the sky.

Ruonan hugged her mother's arm excitedly: "What, how is it so rich!" ”

"I'm a mother-in-law, this A-Yao has twelve taels of silver a year. In addition, the old men in the family make more money, and their family is developed. "A-Yao's man is also on an errand, but he is responsible for the delivery of goods. This errand is really hard, what the inn lacks and what is used, where to buy goods and transfer goods from the valley is his responsibility. The monthly money is also a lot, Dong Xiaoman gave two taels of silver, which is one of the highest incomes here.

The two of them are now prosperous, and they have three taels of silver in their accounts a month, and they don't need to eat and drink to save money.

This woman's words suddenly made the faces of the two women at the next table look ugly, they were Ah Yao's two concubines, and they were also the culprits who Ah Yao had to let the whole family leave. (To be continued......)
