Chapter 177: Killing the New Year Pig
The north wind howled, rolling up the dry leaves on the ground, fluttering in the air, and seeing that the leaves were about to fall back to the ground, suddenly another gust of wind swept by, and the leaves were swept higher again.
Approaching the Chinese New Year, the brigade has begun to have a holiday, and the members who were supposed to be cooking at home have walked out of the house and walked towards the brigade headquarters.
Because today to kill the New Year's pig!
There are not many opportunities to encounter meat throughout the year, and now the pig can finally taste the taste of meat, and the members are all very excited, whether it is the elderly or children, they can't sit still at home.
In the gray crowd, a group of people in bright clothes stood out.
Xu Shuxin was pulled by Xu Shuyan and walked at the front of the family.
"Sixth sister, it's just killing pigs, what's there to see, is it necessary to run so fast?" Although Xu Shuxin was dragged away, she was not in a hurry.
Now that the pigs have not been killed, they have to wait to go there, so what are you in a hurry to do?
She wore a rose-red padded jacket with two braids that hung down to her chest.
Her braids were different from those of the other girls in the brigade, and they were pulled fluffy and looked better.
Her little goose egg face was white and tender, and she didn't use it like the other girls in the team, which was very eye-catching in the crowd.
The point is, all of her clothes are brand new and don't have a single patch.
It's not just her, but even Cui Lanhua next to her and behind her.
The only difference is that Cui Lanhua and Xu Shuyue's clothes are blue, which is much simpler, only her and Xu Shuyan's clothes are rose-red.
But compared to the gray clothes of the members, with layers of patches, the difference is still very large.
Seeing their mother and daughter, the members next to her all greeted her one after another, "Orchid, you and the big girl have come to kill pigs?" ”
Cui Lanhua replied with a smile: "Yes, if you can divide the meat, the children are happy, and they can't sit still at home, so they all come." ”
Seeing Xu Shuxin being pulled by Xu Shuyan and running to the front, Xu Shuyue and a few others followed, and Cui Lanhua also sped up her pace, "I won't tell you, I'll go first." ”
When Cui Lanhua's mother and daughter left, the members began to gossip about them again.
"Look at the skin of Cui Lanhua's mother and daughter, as well as the new clothes on their bodies, Xu Qingmu is really willing!"
"Yes, I didn't expect that after their family was kicked out, not only did they not have to live a hard life, but they got better and better, even Cui Lanhua is not as wooden as before."
"You say, could it be that when the family was not separated, Yundao was pressed by his father and brother?" A man suddenly lowered his voice and said.
Someone immediately reminded her, "You're going to die, what kind of luck is not lucky, this is not a good thing to say." ”
……
Although Xu Shuxin's mother and daughter did not hear the talk of the members, they could also see from their eyes that they were envious of their family.
However, in just four months, their family has changed a lot.
First of all, Xu Qingmu became a regular in October, and his salary doubled, with 27.5 yuan a month, and now the money that their family owes the brigade to buy a house has been paid off.
Then there was the wild boar herd that Lu Zhonghua found last time, and suddenly came down the mountain after a week of slack patrol by the militia team, and at that time the members of the club were busy with the autumn harvest in the field, and they panicked when they saw so many wild boars.
Xu Shuxin was also there at that time, and she joined forces with Xiao Huang and Xiao Hei who came out of the grass to save several members who were almost hit by wild boars, and even killed wild boars!
Among the rescued members, there is Xu Xiaopang's grandmother, and there is also Yao Jinling, the women's director.
After that war, Xu Shuxin became famous in the Peace Brigade.
And because the person who saved was Director Yao, who was also the daughter-in-law of the branch secretary, the anger of the captain and the branch secretary who were threatened by Xu Qingmu was gone.
Even because she saved several people, her points suddenly made a leap from zero to more than 10,000.
Even Xiao Huang and Xiao Hei have transformed into heroes of the Peace Brigade and successfully moved into her house from "Wild Dog".
Now Xu Xiaopang's grandmother didn't dare to show her face when she saw Xu Shuxin, and even sometimes brought the extra food from the family to the Xu family, and asked them to feed Xiao Huang and Xiao Hei.
The children in the brigade also liked Xiao Huang and Xiao Hei, and no one said that they couldn't have dogs anymore.
Of course, these are all external changes, and there are many changes in their home: there is an extra room opposite the kitchen, and there is a bunk bed in the room; The beds in Xu Shuxin's sisters' house have also increased, from a large bed spliced with wooden planks to four, which are also bunk beds, seven sisters, two of them, and Xu Shuxin also got one alone; There are other daily necessities, and Xu Qingmu also bought them at home little by little.
It is worth mentioning that Zhao Dashan has now become a family with them, because not long ago, Xu Qingmu officially recognized Zhao Dashan as his godfather.
Now Xu Shuxin directly calls Zhao Dashan "grandpa", and even the word "dry" is saved.
As for their own grandfather, Old Man Xu......
Who remembers him?
Since Xu Xiaopang's grandmother was rescued by Xu Shuxin, she told them that when she went to the Xu family's old house to confirm whether their family had a dog, Old Man Xu admitted it personally.
He knew that Grandma Xu Xiaopang had bad intentions towards their family at that time and wanted to do something to their family, but he still chose to tell Grandma Xu Xiaopang, which shows his ruthlessness towards Xu Qingmu, his own son.
So from Xu Qingmu to Xu Shuxin, and even Cui Lanhua, they didn't regard Old Man Xu as their father and grandfather.
Speaking of the current situation, when Xu Shuxin was pulled by Xu Shuyan to the square in front of the team headquarters, she had not yet started killing pigs, but the pigs she was going to kill had been tied.
In addition to the sows and breeding pigs that are specially left behind, as well as the task pigs that are handed in, the rest will be slaughtered today and then distributed to the members.
This year, they raised a large number of pigs, and they raised them well, and there was not a single sick pig, so they were able to keep more pigs this year, a full five!
But it made everyone happy.
Before the pig killing began, the side was already full of members.
Yao Jinling was standing beside the branch secretary, and when she saw their sisters, she immediately laughed, "Qiya, are you here?" What about your basins? Bring it quickly, and I'll give you some more pig blood in a moment. ”
Pig blood does not need to be replaced, and it is not distributed to each family like pork, and the main one is whoever grabs it quickly is whoever.
The branch secretary can also kill pigs, so Yao Jinling, as his pillow person, occupied the best position at the beginning, and was ready to grab more pig blood when the time came, and take it home whether it was boiled and eaten or made pig blood sausage.
Xu Shuxin replied with a smile: "My eldest sister took it, they will come soon, then I will thank my aunt first." ”
"Hey, you're welcome!" Yao Jinling waved her hand and said indifferently.
While talking, Cui Lanhua and Xu Shuyue arrived.
Without Xu Shuxin's hands, Xu Shuyan walked to Xu Shuyue in three steps and two steps, took the enamel basin from her hand, squeezed it back in front of Yao Jinling, and handed the basin over.
"Uncle, give it, I'm sorry for you."
