Chapter 25: Killing the Pigs
We stayed at my aunt's house for more than 10 days and it was time to go home.
My aunt and my husband didn't want us to go, so they had to let us stay longer. But we still have to go, or the supply of the vegetable store will be problematic. We promise to come back in the summer.
My aunt stuffed the gifts for everyone into the car, put a whole back seat, and told us to be careful when driving on the road, and call her when we got home. With the wave of my aunt's hand, we embarked on the return journey.
Of course, we first drove to the county's agricultural technology research institute and took away the fungus and mushroom strains we ordered.
It's basically the same as when we go, we are stop-and-go. When you see a gas station, you go in to collect gasoline and diesel, and when you see a village, you go in to see what you can collect.
On the third day of the return trip, we entered a village, just in time for a villager to kill pigs for a happy event, and we suddenly remembered that the animals in the space have been raised for nearly two years, and some animals should also be killed, or should not be bred in large numbers without natural predators. With such a small space, it is not good to reproduce too quickly. So, we didn't leave, we stayed to watch and learn to kill pigs.
This mainly depends on Jiang Zhi. He watched very closely, and I was upset when I heard the heart-rending cry of the pig. I told Jiang Zhi that I wanted to go to the village to have a look.
I was walking on the village path and saw a lot of fur drying in the yard of a villager, so I walked over and asked outside the yard. It turned out that this family raised rabbits, and the drying was all rabbit hair.
I can't keep live rabbits in my space, but I can still collect rabbit fur. So I got close to the villager and bought all his rabbit fur.
When Jiang Zhi returned to the car to look for me, it was an hour later, and he was not in a hurry to leave, he took out the notebook I carried with him and carefully wrote down the steps of killing pigs.
I took it and looked at it, and I remembered it in more detail.
Preparation tools: a pot of boiling hot water, a pig-killing knife, a pig-razor knife, a high-voltage electric baton (buy online)
Step 1: Catch the pig: Method 1: Stun with a stick (the difficulty is a bit big, and the strength is not well mastered). Method 2: Electric shock (This method is mild, you can try it.) )
Step 2: Kill the pig: Tie the fainted pig to the bench and seal the throat with a pig-killing knife (is it very large, the technical content is high. The scene was bloody, and the daughter-in-law could not be present. )
Step 3: Pick up the pig's blood: After killing the pig, take the pot to receive the pig's blood as soon as possible. (I'll have to do this too)
Step 4: Shaving: Lift the dead pig to a tank filled with hot water and soak for a while. Take a razor and shave the pig's hair (carry the pig and I'll do it, boil hot water for my daughter-in-law)
Step 5: Disembowelment: Hang the pig and remove the internal organs step by step. (Or I'll do it)
Step 6: Wash the pig: Finally, take a few buckets of water and rinse it off.
The steps to kill the pig are well written, but I doubt he can do it.
I looked at the things I needed to kill the pigs, turned my head to look at Jiang Zhi and said, "Old Jiang, I have all the things you wrote to be used, why don't we find a barren mountain and a wild mountain to try first?" ”
Jiang Zhi stiffened and said, "Okay, sooner or later, you have to kill." After killing the pigs, there are also cows and sheep. ”
Before the pig was killed, he was thinking about the cow and the sheep.
But think about Jiang Zhi's major, it should be regarded as a professional counterpart, they are all going under the knife, one is to die, and the other is to save alive.
We didn't find a barren mountain, so we found a small forest.
After entering the space, they split up, I went to the kitchen to boil a few pots of water, and he took an electric baton to catch pigs in the grass.
As soon as the water in the pot on my side was ringing, I heard the screams of pigs coming from the meadow, which was loud and incessant. His step one seems to be a bit of a failure, according to the plan, there should be no screaming, I think Jiang Zhi must have failed to corona the pig at once.
After waiting for a while, the screaming finally stopped. I saw Jiang Zhi carrying a big fat pig with his limbs tied to the fence yard, the pig should be unconscious, or it can't be carried so honestly.
When he entered the hospital, he put the pig on the bench I had prepared in advance and fixed it with a rope.
"What's wrong just now, didn't you have a corona?" I hid in the kitchen and didn't dare to go out.
"Well, this pig is too big, and I didn't find the right place, I took a long time, and it was powered several times before it fell." As he spoke, Jiang Zhi wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Don't come out, I'm going to start killing pigs. Wait a minute, if the pig wakes up, it will be troublesome, is your water boiled? Jiang Zhi picked up a sharp pig-killing knife.
"Right now, put all the pig's blood in the basin next to the stool. I really don't need my help. I asked one last time.
"No, you can stay." Jiang Zhi said arrogantly.
Jiang Zhi took the knife and drew next to the pig, but he never started. I saw that it took several turns before he stood still, he should have done a good job of mental construction and decided to use the real knife.
Jiang Zhi took the knife and stabbed it hard near the pig's neck, it was really a white knife in and a red knife out. What happens next? The knife that pierced it did not seal the throat, but stabbed the pig awake. After waking up, the pig may have been in pain and felt dangerous, screaming on the bench, kicking and struggling.
Jiang Zhi saw that the rope tied to the pig was afraid that he would not be able to withstand the pig's struggle, so he immediately decided to suppress the pig with his strong body, but then he had no hands to work.
"Daughter-in-law, come and help." He finally called me, and I hid in the kitchen, always aiming at Jiang Zhi to kill the pig.
I ran over and said, "What's going on. ”
Jiang Zhi glared at me and accused me of pretending to be stupid. "Hurry up, the pig's blood will be gone in a while."
I saw that the pig's blood had spilled to the ground, and the basin for the blood was useless. picked up the knife that Jiang Zhi threw aside in order to suppress the pig, and stabbed it at the pig's neck, and the pig slowly twitched and stopped struggling.
Jiang Zhi was a little dumbfounded, he was originally holding a knife unsteadily and not stabbing the pig's vital point, and wanted me to help him control the pig, so that he could free one hand and give the pig another knife, or a few knives. I didn't expect this stupid daughter-in-law to be so fierce, she used a knife when she came up, and she also sealed her throat with a knife. She really deserves to be the surgeon's daughter-in-law.
I didn't have time to pay attention to Jiang Zhi's stupidity, so I quickly put the basin under the pig's neck to receive blood. Then I ran back to the kitchen to see the water I was boiling, and when I removed the fire, I poured it into a large basin that I had prepared. "Old ginger, come over and bring boiling water."
The rest went according to plan. Jiang Zhi grabbed the pig's leg with both hands, rolled the pig in boiling water, and then put it on the bench and picked up the razor to shave the pig carefully. Because the pig had to eat it on its own, it was very strict, and I watched from the sidelines, pointing out from time to time where it was not shaved.
The next step is to disembowel. To hang the pig to the tree, there is no such tall and stout tree in the space that can withstand the big fat pig of more than 300 catties. So we hoisted the pig to a big tree in the woods outside the space. After the preparation, Jiang Zhi began to execute.
This is really not a good scene, I don't think Jiang Zhi feels anything, it may be related to his profession, disemboweling a pig and giving people an operation should feel the same. At this time, he fully demonstrated the advantages of his surgeon, seeing that he was not in a hurry, and slowly sorted out the parts taken out of the pig's belly. I'm going to throw up.
We went back to the space and cleaned up the pigs. Jiang Zhi said to me, this pig is fresh, why don't you stew a pot of pig-killing stewed vegetables and eat it. I resolutely disagree, I'm so disgusted that I'm going to vomit, how can I still have the heart to eat pork, so I told Jiang Zhi that I want to share good things with my family, and this pig will wait until we go home and everyone will eat it together.
Jiang Zhi was satisfied with the aftermath of the work, I knew that he felt embarrassed when he killed the pig, and now seeing that I couldn't eat the pork because I saw the disgusting appearance of disembowelment, he felt that he had found the field. Alas, no matter how much a man has a big arm, he has a childish side!
After the pig was killed, we sat down and summed up the experience. Although there were some problems in the process of killing pigs, we overcame difficulties, united and cooperated, and finally completed this arduous task and achieved the final victory. In the future pig killing business, we will definitely update the method more rationally, strictly control the time, and strive to do more perfect. Do to contribute to the cause of pig killing.

The author has something to say: I am in a good mood today and would like to share it with you.
Today, my old ginger's behavior is really like this, I am so surprised and moved.
When I went home last night, I saw that the ground at home was too buried, and I didn't drag it for several days, so I told Lao Jiang that I was too tired tonight, and asked him to call me for a while this morning, so I could mop the floor and clean up the house.
As a result, I didn't get up until half past 6 today (my shuttle bus at 7 o'clock), and after I got up, I watched my old ginger mopping the floor in the living room.
I'm really touched, how can my old ginger be so good!
