Chapter 36: Killing the Pigs
The villagers who could come to help came, the pigs were screaming, making a loud cry, but the villagers laughed louder, and the women skillfully made a fire to boil water, and the water did not need to be beaten, and the snow outside would melt into the pot for a while.
Lin Hao and those veterans began to press a few pigs on the long row of benches, the bright awl reflected the dazzling light in the sun, and the pig killer wiped the pig's neck with a rotten cloth, so in everyone's expectation, the awl was inserted, and the blood sprayed directly, and someone immediately caught it with a bucket, and the women hurriedly stepped forward to receive the blood bucket by bucket, Xiao Langjun said, this is also a baby.
The wild dogs outside the door were barking, the women in the courtyard were laughing, the butchers were indifferently looking at the pigs that were gradually no longer struggling, and Liu Fan suddenly looked at all this with some sadness.
What an imaginary scene this scene is with the world, some people live like wild dogs outside the yard, some live like indifferent butchers, and some live like women who don't know anything.
After the bleeding pig was carried into a large wooden basin, boiling water poured down, and the pig's hair began to be scraped, and the pig was shaved cleanly, and then the pig's joints were removed with a knife.
Pieces of pork are chopped down and dried in the hallway, which will be the main source of food for the rest of the year, and then some of it is salted in a tank of water that can be used for smoking meat in a few days. When I go door to door, I will prepare a little, but whenever a relative comes over, I will serve such a dish, which is extremely delicious.
Thinking of smoked meat, Liu Fan wants to drool, this thing is simply the best in the world.
In the evening, a table of sumptuous delicacies began to be served, braised lion's head, tamales, sweet and sour tenderloin, salt-and-pepper pork ribs, braised pork, shredded pickled cabbage, small crispy pork...
A stack of vegetables was served, and it was obviously fat and oily meat, but it was snatched up, but the lean meat did not have much market, and Liu Fan who saw it pumped directly.
Everyone present was given three catties of pork and a big bowl of pig blood, and the fattest ones were also the fattest ones, and they all agreed that tonight's dish was definitely the best dish they had ever eaten in their lives, and everyone left Liu Fan's house with a smile on their faces.
Liu An's girl is becoming more and more playful, she is not young, but she can't bear it, Liu Fan naturally doesn't want to care about her, at her age, she plays more fiercely than her, but she was a person who stole money to go to the Internet café, although she was almost crippled by her father afterwards, but I still think about it and feel that the happiness at that time was extremely simple and satisfying.
Seeing that Liu An was about to run out again, Liu Fan said: "If you are not proficient in addition, subtraction, multiplication and division before the Chinese New Year, I will give you the most perfect New Year's gift!" ”
Liu An suddenly ran over to be coquettish, Liu Fanna would eat him, waved his hand and said: "Don't be tired of me, let you play, but there is absolutely no room for bargaining for what you should learn!" ”
Liu An screamed and ran back into the house to start practicing math problems.
Liu Qingshu has long been able to walk on the ground, but it's a pity that his legs are still a little lame, and he can't see it when he walks slowly, and he will be unstable when he walks fast.
Liu Qingshu patted Liu Fan on the shoulder and said, "Melon cowardice, look at what!" ”
"Aye, I'm sorry, I still didn't heal your leg in the first place!"
"Hey, hey!" Liu Qingshu patted his leg and said: "What is the difference between this leg and a good leg now, Gui Sun, Lao Tzu's affairs Lao Tzu takes care of himself, take care of your own affairs first, the boss is not small, the matchmaker on a blind date has come wave after wave, and I haven't seen you take care of others, and now it is rumored outside that our Liu family is getting better, and they are starting to look down on people!" ”
"I still want to find someone I like about marriage, and you don't look at who the matchmaker introduces, can we marry those women with this vision?"
"Letter ball! Get out of here! Liu Qingshu slapped Liu Fan on the head.
When another snow came, the Spring Festival that Liu An'an was thinking about also came as scheduled, and a few people from Jinmu, Water, Fire and Earth began to clean up early in the morning, and Liu Fan also called Liu An to clean up together.
After a few months of enrichment, everyone began to plump, and even some people have exceeded the standard and become fat, and they have more words, and they no longer dare to say a word like before.
Liu Fan took out the red paper that had been prepared a long time ago, wrote a couplet with a brush and pasted it on the gate with rice paste, "A hundred years of heaven and earth will return to vitality, and the mountains and rivers will be peaceful."
The horizontal batch is "Guotai Ming'an".
The kitchen was labeled "Fire and Water", and the toilet was labeled "Bad luck rolls rough!" ”
I'm very happy to spoof it, and I'm not worried about whether others can understand it, anyway, Liu Fan is happy.
Today's Liu family has already become the vane of everyone in the village, seeing Liu Fan sticking Spring Festival couplets, there are more people who come to write this morning, and they write Spring Festival couplets door to door, Liu Fan rubbed his hands that were a little sour.
When night fell, everyone ate a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together, and gave red envelopes one by one, even Jiang Muxue also had, and now Jiang Muxue has long been accustomed to Liu Fan's pie, and Liu An is tired of being together all day, and has been picking up Liu An to learn some martial arts.
The children of the village began to happily come over under the leadership of their parents to say goodbye, Liu Fan did not refuse, and gave a red envelope held up with red paper, which was not much money, only ten yuan, but the meaning was there, both adults and children hung a happy and satisfied smile.
They also gave back a lot of things to Liu Fan, either snacks or some gadgets made at home.
The red lanterns hung from house to house, against the backdrop of the heavy snow, arranged the village like an Internet celebrity check-in place, Liu Fan really wanted to have a mobile phone to take a picture, so that he didn't have to go to see any snow villages.
Roast the fire, drink tea, eat some preserved fruits, but unfortunately there are no peanuts, only melon seeds, the fried melon seeds are very fragrant, and you can't stop eating them.
Liu An ran in in a panic, "Brother, there is someone outside who wants to give you a New Year's greeting, but they say they want you to go out!" ”
Liu Fan was stunned by what she said, because he really didn't know a few people, and when he walked out, he saw a young man in thin clothes looking at him lightly.
This person is dressed plainly, but his eyes are extremely bright, and his thin body is standing straight.
"King Mabin of Chiping County, Qinghe County, gives Liu Li a New Year's greeting!" King Mabin saluted uprightly.
Liu Fan was stunned again, because this person's name had never been heard, if Luo Bingwang was about the same, the current Luo Bingwang was estimated to be a baby, and arched his hand and said: "Your Excellency, please come in, a certain family has prepared hot tea, which can ward off the cold!" ”
Ma Bin Wang said: "I am a guest in the middle of the Lang will Chang He's house, I heard that the chief of the willow will be well governed here, so I want to come over to study for three years, and I hope that the willow will grow into perfection!" ”
“... Silly X! When Liu Fan heard him say this, his first reaction was this word.
