Chapter 379: New Year (II) (The Sun and the Moon in the Silver Alliance Pot 39/50)

Bai Ling never ate anything from them, in his words, he followed the leader from the time of poverty, although he can no longer fight for the leader, but he will always be the leader's soldier, and he can't be ashamed of the leader.

If the leader says what he can't do, he won't do it.

"Okay, don't talk nonsense with you kid, your actions are a bit fast, I was thinking that you would take action in two days, but I didn't expect you to be so active." Bai Ling said with a smile.

"Hehe, this is mainly my mother's anxiety." Liu Sanhu said with some embarrassment.

"Auntie really has a good eye, that's right, I'm here to teach you some things that the leader has given you." Bai Ling said.

"Huh? What the chiefs taught? The village chief, please. Liu Sanhu hurriedly spoke.

"In this way, you guys stop here for a while, there are a total of 623 people in our village, I think it's a big gathering, just put it on the day of the 24th year of the lunar month, and the whole village will worship together, what do you think? What do you think, auntie? Bai Ling asked.

"We're fine, listen to the village chief." Liu Sanhu's wife next to her immediately spoke. There is nothing to refuse, this is the action of the whole village, in ancient times, a village is a collective, no one dares to break away from this collective, of course Liu Sanhu's wife knows this.

"We're fine." Liu Tie and Daniel Zhang looked at each other, and they naturally didn't have any opinions, but fortunately, they hadn't started yet.

"Okay, while there are still three days left, aren't the doors of your two courtyards open? It just so happened that a few stoves were built in the yard of the two of you, and when the time came, Liu Tie, you came to my house to bring three sheep out. Bai Ling said in a serious tone.

"Village Chief." At this time, Liu Sanhu's old lady next to her suddenly spoke, "The old body has something to say." ”

"Auntie, please speak." Bai Ling immediately spoke.

"Village Chief Bai, it's been more than half a year, although I haven't asked other people in the village, but I think the whole village admires you very much, and they all believe in your management, but the old man has something to say, village chief, although you are the village chief, but you are also with us, you are the whole village, you should not object?" Liu Sanhu's old lady spoke.

"Of course, I'm also a member of our village." Bai Ling immediately nodded and said, of course he would not object to this.

"Since you are a member of the village, the whole village sacrifice is a big deal, how can you let the village chief take the lead yourself? I know that when the whole village sacrifices, they will inevitably eat together, so since the whole village has a feast, although our family may not be rich, but each of our families should share a part of the food, and all of us should share it equally. ”

"I don't think other people will object to this, when I entered Layue, I inquired with other old people in the village, and they are also ready to slaughter sheep and chickens, since this is the case, then we shouldn't let you take the lead." Liu Sanhu's old voice looked at Bai Ling seriously and said.

"I know, but ......" Bai Ling said helplessly, of course he knew this.

"It's nothing, village chief, if you really think that you are the leader's soldier, you should have more, so how about you give out a sheep?" Liu Sanhu's old lady spoke.

"This ...... We'll talk about it then. Bai Ling thought about it, and he had no way to refuse directly, because he knew that he also considered the feelings of the villagers, and he knew very well that these villagers were very sincere, and some of them might have the idea of taking advantage of a small advantage, but in such an important matter, no one would take advantage of it.

That would be drowned by the spittle star!

Bai Ling soon went back, and Liu Sanhu and they naturally stopped their movements, and the people in the village were notified in the next two days, just like Liu Sanhu's wife thought, no one refused such a thing, in fact, even if Bai Ling didn't say it, the people in the whole village actually had such preparations.

The New Year of this era is not called the Spring Festival, it is called Chinese New Year's Eve, and the most important thing to celebrate Chinese New Year's Eve is sacrifice, even ordinary people have to sacrifice their ancestors, even if the family is very ordinary, even a bowl of white porridge is to sacrifice their ancestors.

And for all the ordinary people of the entire Han Dynasty, it can be said that for a whole year, they are all holding their breath, this year's Han has given them too many changes and hopes, whether it is the Turks, or the Han people, or these people like Loulan, in fact, everyone has experienced despair.

But what they didn't expect was that in just one year, their despair gradually turned into unprecedented hope! They have never thought of such a day, and there is not much they can do but erect an immortal tablet for the leader in their own home, hoping that the leader can live a long life.

Huo Gang has truly achieved the birth of a Buddha in ten thousand families, it can be said that this New Year, many people may not have discussed, but they have made the same decision, not only the Han people, but also the Turks, and even the Turks attach more importance to such sacrifices.

Because in the hearts of the Turks, Huo Gang is the embodiment of immortality in their minds.

Three days passed in a flash, the twenty-fourth day of the lunar month, it was the day of sweeping the dust and sacrificing the prince, and it was the day of sacrificing to the king of the stove, but today is an extraordinary year for everyone in Yumen Village.

Seven temporary stoves have been set up side by side in the yard of Liu Sanhu's house, counting the original two stoves in their house, there are a total of 9 stoves, nine is extremely numbered, and today there are a total of 100 households in the village, each family has pulled out a fat sheep, and some people may kill one more later, but they don't care.

Today, every family is a sheep, including Bai Ling, and if Bai Ling didn't stand up to the opinions of the whole village in the end, he would also pull a sheep out. Because half of the people in the village are Turkic, this sheep slaughterer naturally does not have to worry about lack of manpower.

A hundred sheep were slaughtered quickly, and after the entrails were cleaned, the hundred sheep were neatly arranged in wooden trays, and all the sheep had their heads tied with silk cloth.

There are very old people in the village, and there are also a few respected old people, these old people are very familiar with the process of sacrifice, so all the process is very solemn, the slaughter of sheep starts before dawn, and when the sacrifice is completed, it is not yet noon.

After the sacrifice was completed, the sheep of each family were separated with knives, and three catties of meat were removed from each sheep, and the rest of the meat was taken back from each family, and a part of the mutton was set aside for the stew taught by the chief, and the other part was used for them to make cured meat, mainly in the form of storage.

This method is very simple, everyone is watching from the side, and after boiling a pot of mutton fat and fatty mutton in the pot to get oil, and then all of them are in the big urn, Bai Ling said loudly: "Everyone should have seen it, this is what the leader taught to everyone, after processing the meat in this way, put it in the big urn, even in summer, put it in a cool place, or in the cellar, it will not be bad in summer." ”

"I know that maybe everyone is reluctant to eat meat now, but next year, I believe that everyone can kill pigs and sheep in the winter and save enough meat oil to eat, so that even in the summer, we will have meat oil to eat."

"Until one day, we can eat meat oil every day, I believe it will not be too far from that day, the number of pigs this year is not very popular, but I have inquired, a few nearby villages, there are a few sows, a sow litter can lay more than a dozen piglets, next year most of us can go to get a pig."

"When we have more pork, we can almost kill more than 200 catties of big fat pigs in a year, which is enough for us to eat for a year, and the leader said that the whole body of the pig is a treasure, and the leader has developed many new dishes, called stir-fried ......" Bai Ling said loudly.

The best way for these things to spread is through these village chiefs, and Huo Gang believes that this way of spreading is definitely the fastest.

Everyone listened carefully, knowing that after Bai Ling finished speaking and announced that everyone had started cooking, everyone began to cook in the way that the leader had passed down.

In fact, the stew is also very simple, there are no other dishes, only some dried mushrooms in Akita, and Chinese cabbage, put the mutton in, stew with Chinese cabbage, mushrooms, etc., put in spices and the like, when the fragrance continues to come from the pot, almost all the children in the whole village are drooling around the nine cauldrons.

The big white steamed buns that have been prepared in the cage drawer are also exuding a charming fragrance, not to mention children, even adults are swallowing their saliva, but everyone is still patient, because the mutton is not yet cooked.

Even in the cold winter, the temperature outside the house is not high, but the sun is good today, and everyone in a village is sitting in the yard, everyone is chatting happily, and they don't feel cold.

More people are discussing how to raise a few pigs next year, or a few acres of land.

Looking at such a scene, a smile appeared on Bai Ling's face, wasn't this the life he had once dreamed of? Although at that time, he just hoped that the more than 1,000 people behind them could live such a life, and now there are 800,000 people in the Han Dynasty.

But all of this, which used to only appear in his dreams, now really appeared in front of him.

Listening to their discussion, Bai Ling didn't participate, he watched all this with a smile, until a voice interrupted Bai Ling's contemplation, "Village Chief Bai, you...... You drink water. A girl in her twenties blushed and brought a bowl of water to Bai Ling.

Bai Ling was stunned for a moment, raised her head and glanced at the girl, her rare old face turned red, and then she took it and directly drained the water in the bowl.
