Speaking of details, the white hand also worked as a butcher for a few days.

It was when he was twelve years old, and after being introduced by the old captain, he went to work as a helper in the slaughtering team of the commune's food station, which lasted about a month and a half.

At that time, there were also units that killed pigs, which were called slaughtering stations or slaughtering groups, and it was Tong Jiuhu who had white hands at that time.

Killed pigs with white hands, caught pigs, killed pigs, washed pigs, skinned, shaved, split heads, tails, disemboweled, separatized, oiled, washed intestines, and so on.

The white-handed is most famous for liking to eat raw pig gallbladder, and even he doesn't understand why.

When the people catch the pigs, the pigs will be caught, and when the door is closed and the pigs are caught, the pigs will be caught.

Tong Jiuhu and White Hand joined forces, and with everyone's help, the pig was pressed on two benches that were merged.

Bai Dang and Tong Guohua also came to help, one pressed the pig's body, and the other held a wooden barrel to catch the pig's blood.

Tong Jiuhu pressed the pig's head with one hand, held a sharp knife with the other, and raised the knife in his hand.

The white knife went in, the red knife came out, and a pig's blood spurted out, straight into the barrel.

The pig squealed until it was hoarse, and there was only a trace of gasp.

The first two big pigs, Tong Jiuhu did it himself.

When it was the turn of the third pig, Tong Jiuhu smiled and said, "Hand, you come." ”

With the help of everyone, he grabbed the pig's ears and gave an order, and carried the pig to the bench.

Pigs are barking, people are laughing, waiting for their white hands to come out of the ocean.

The white hand was presentable, shouted "Hold it down", tied the horse, grabbed the pig's left ear with his left hand, pressed his left elbow on the pig's neck, and took the sharp knife handed by Tong Guohua with his right hand.

After all, he is a novice, and he has not dealt with pigs for a long time, so he first touched the pig's neck with his middle finger, ring finger and little finger to determine the correct part of the knife.

Suddenly, the white hand quickly took out the knife, and before everyone could see it, the blade was gone, only the handle remained.

Then the knife was withdrawn with his white hand, and the blood came out with the knife and flew straight to the barrel.

The crowd cheered in unison.

Even Tong Jiuhu admired it.

The layman looks at the bustle, and the insider looks at the doorway.

Tong Jiuhu killed two pigs, although they were both one by one, but when his knife pierced into it, the knife speed was actually not fast. Because he needs to feel the arteries of the pig, the knife is not straight in and out.

The knife with the white hand is definitely straight in and out, and the standard pig killing action is called a knife red, the highest level in the slaughtering world.

The pig killing knife is fast in and out, and the blood flows quickly, which reduces the possibility of blood seeping into the pork, and the quality of the meat and blood is also better.

All the pigs were killed.

Tong Jiuhu dragged his white hand and didn't let go, he must let him do it.

This is to help Tong Guojun work, and he is happy to do it with white hands.

After the three pigs were killed, they were carried to the hall and placed on the table, ready to be sent to the woman's house tomorrow.

The other one is for banquets, which has long been dismantled by Tong Jiuhu and white hands, and it has been broken into pieces.

The work of the seventh day of the first month is done.

Tong Guojun's marriage day is the eighth day of the first month, but the day should start from the seventh day of the first month.

On the seventh day of the first lunar month, there is a common name, called "warm house" or "warm house night".

Early in the morning, the children's house was full of lights, beaming with joy, and relatives and friends came one after another.

The white-handed family also rushed to Tong's house for breakfast.

There are a lot of things going on today, and the highlight is to go to the woman's house to give the bride price and pork, and then take back the woman's dowry.

Originally, the process of determining relatives in rural areas was like this. According to the matchmaker, the two parties went on a blind date and decided to hold a ceremony called "Xiaoding" in the future. When it comes to small times, the man should give the woman gold and silver, or earrings or rings, in short, depending on the family's economic situation, more or less, but absolutely not without.

At least after a while, the next ritual is carried out, which is called "sending the day", or "Dading".

Dading is actually to determine the official marriage date, the man has to give the bride price, the bride price is mainly in cash, the woman will not take it all, depending on the discussion between the two parties.

Tong Guojun's situation is a little different, after Xiaoding, he has been dragging on without Dading.

But Dading can't do without, so with the consent of the woman, Dading and the wedding day are put together.

At nine o'clock in the morning, the team of bride price givers departed.

A total of four tractors, all dressed in red and hung colors, went straight to the woman's home, Shangjing Village, Chenshan Township.

On the first tractor, there were two matchmakers, groom officials, and two escorts, one of whom was white-handed.

The white hand is responsible for keeping the bride price, 1,288 pieces of octagonal and eight cents, and occasionally means "all the way to the hair".

The second tractor and the third tractor, each with a pig, were held high, and they were also labeled with red letters.

On the third tractor, there were two large carps, each weighing eight pounds, which were also pasted with red paper.

The fourth tractor did not carry anything or people, and went to the woman's house to transport the dowry according to the woman's request.

When they arrived at the woman's house, the woman was busy, and the man's people were waiting to eat and drink.

After handing over the bag containing the lottery money to the matchmaker, he squatted on the tractor and smoked.

Looking at the woman's house, red bricks and blue tiles, it should have been built in the past two years, and the economic conditions of the woman's family are not bad.

The woman's people came to serve tea, took the teacup with their white hands, and took the opportunity to inquire about the situation of the woman's family.

People told Baishou that the bride's father was an expert in planting and a well-known professional farmer of cash crop planting.

In the past few years, the bride's father has shown his skills and has already been lifted out of poverty and become rich. The bayberry, loquat, wendan, orange on the mountain, the watermelon, tomato, loofah, citrus cane, etc., in the field, can be harvested.

It's also a rich man, white hands.

Sure enough, it was a rich man, and the prize money was only collected two hundred and eight yuan, and one thousand and eighty yuan was returned.

Leave two eights, and return two eights, which means that the man will send his hair, and the woman will also send his hair.

The two big carps were sure to take it, but the two pigs only took half of it, and returned one and a half.

And the woman's dowry is an eye-opener.

In addition to the bed, there is everything in the furniture, known as 36 legs, including various cabinets in the new house.

There is also a fourteen-inch black-and-white television, a sewing machine, and a Phoenix women's bicycle.

At the time, this was the highest standard of a woman's dowry.

The four tractors were full, and the roadmen who went home, the white hands and others stood next to the driver before returning.

In the evening, the man has a big meal, all relatives and friends will bring the old and the young to the scene, and the wine table fills the whole courtyard.

This meal is called "warm house".

Before entering the table, relatives and friends have to send their own wedding bags, that is, red envelopes, commonly known as "favors".

At that time, the wedding bag was generally eight or ten or twelve yuan for a family, and the number would not exceed twenty yuan.

Only with a white hand was generous, and he gave a 666 yuan wedding bag.

This is the "favor" of the white hand as a friend, his Bai family wants to send another wedding bag, and his mother is in charge, with a gift of thirty-six hexagons.

The bridegroom, the official Tong Guojun, must firmly remember that when he marries from scratch in the future, his "favor" must not be less than that of his hands today.

The eighth day of the first lunar month is the real day of the bride, and it is also the most lively day, and it is also commonly known as the "main night" in the local area.
