eight dozen pigs

After the funeral, Zhang Xiuyun was sick for a week. During this period, Lu Nan always tried every means to take Yu Yan with him, coax the little girl to tell stories and jokes at night. Yu Yan didn't know much about Yu Yong's death, and his sadness was limited. He quickly returned to his mood. In addition to thinking of his mother in the middle of the night, he was always very obedient.

Yu Yong died and life still had to live. After Zhang Xiuyun recovered from illness, she gradually recovered and led Yu Yan to travel around several villages all day long. In this era, the concepts of tailors in rural areas and tailors in cities were completely different. If a person like Zhang Xiuyun opened a shop in the village, he would earn less than two taels of meters that year. Her work method was to marry the villagers, do birthdays or have fun, and if there was something to do, please go and take care of food and accommodation, how many dollars a day to pay for the wages, and say how many sets of clothes to do in total. Generally, marriage is the biggest thing. The villagers pulled materials from the city and then asked the tailor to make four sets of summer clothes, two sets of winter clothes, and two sets of spring and autumn clothes for the bride, which only takes one week.

Before Yu Yong died, Zhang Xiuyun thought of a man. He didn't take much work and lived a life. Now Yu Yong is gone. Zhang Xiuyun carried Yu Yan on his back and went to the other side to travel. Life was difficult, but he earned a lot of money.

As spring comes and autumn comes, Lu Nan still insists on running every day, slapping horses, and sometimes pretending to punch a set of turtle punches in front of Hu Kaishan. However, Hu Kaishan never says anything, always smiles and sees Lu Nan's mind, stretches out his big hand, grabs Lu Nan in his arms, slaps him a few times on his butt, grabs a handful of pumpkin seeds or dates, pinches Lu Nan's arms and legs, and nods.

Humph! If you can't be my master, I won't believe it anymore!

Lu Nan is one year older and will go to school in the autumn. However, he doesn't care about this. In this regard, Lu Nan only needs to learn what he hadn't learned in his previous life. He has obtained the book and flipped it over again. Not to mention the full score, at least the first place in the school is stable.

After Lu Nan had breakfast, Lu Dafu and Xie Fengying went downstairs early. As soon as he left, Lu Dongsheng and Tu Fangjun ran over, followed by a girl behind him. He looked closely and found that it was Lu Dongmei.

"Nannan, Nannannan!" Lu Dongsheng ran fast and pressed his knees to pant for a long time. Seeing Lu Nan looking at Lu Dongmei behind him, he explained: "Dongmei's family slaughtered pigs today. Her father is my cousin. Dongmei came to call my parents to go to her house to beat pigs. Are you going?"

Killing pigs? Lu Nan suddenly thought that he had never seen pigs killing since he was a child!

Before slaughtering a pig in the countryside is a big deal. Everyone should invite their neighbors and relatives to have a good meal. Most of them are rib meat, and the pigs are made of mats, and they can drink all the bulk wine. Don’t pay any gifts. There are always three or four tables in a meal. Eating 20 kilograms of meat is a small amount. The purpose is to be lively and generous! If anyone kills a pig, he will not ask someone to "beat the pig", and don’t think someone will help you if you have anything next time.

"Let's go!" Lu Nan ran to his own field with three overjoyed children, shouted, and Xie Fengying responded from afar: "Come back early..." Before he finished speaking, the children had already run away.

Lu Dongmei's family is more than three miles away from Lujiagou Village. It is a natural village located in the southeast of Shangba Village, called Baihewan Village.

Baihe is a river of life that Shangba Village and Lujiagou Village have to grab water every year. At this moment, it is sparkling and autumn colors are waving.

As soon as I entered the village, I heard the shrill screams of pigs, which made the children's scalp numb.

On the rice field of Lu Dongmei's house, there was a wide-edged pig stool. A fat pig that had been killed was lying on it. It had already blown enough, and its whole body was as bright as swollen. A big man was shaving his hair in a scrubbing manner. Aside him was a large wooden basin filled with pig blood and a hot pig slaying bucket that emitted a fishy and smelly smell.

A flower pig with a 250 kilogram upward face was howling desperately at this moment. The pig-killer gritted his teeth, and his tangled arms tightly held the fat pig, pressed it on the pig-killing stool, and his knees hit the fat pig's heart. The apprentice pulled the pig's ears with both hands and tightened the fat pig's head.

With a stretch of his hand, he took the pig-killing knife handed over by another apprentice. The knife was two feet long and shone brightly with a cold light. He sent his hand forward, and the pig-killing knife stabbed straight into the fat pig's neck, which shocked the audience around him with a "huh" scream.

Xueliang's pig-killing knife stabbed to the end, and the hot pig blood flowed into the wooden basin along the bleeding groove. The fat pig howled desperately, and his fat body twisted. However, he was forced to death by the pig-killing man. After five or six minutes, he gradually lost his strength and his screams became weaker.

On the other side, the apprentice of the Pig Man who had already burned a pot of boiling water and poured it into the pig-killing bucket. The pig-killing guy waited for the pig-killing bucket to die. He hugged the pig-boat tightly with both hands, and even hugged it up with a loud shout. He slammed into the pig-killing bucket with a loud shout: "Hot!"

After saying that, he ignored the apprentice's busyness. He picked up another pig that had been shaved, hung it on the rack that had been set up early, changed into a sharp knife with a semi-circular blade, inserted it under the pig's neck, and stroked it from top to bottom. The whole fat pig was opened, and the smell of fishy smell suddenly spread, causing everyone on the field to cover their noses.

The pig-killer was extremely skillful in his movements. He cut the pig heart, liver, lungs, and large intestines into the basin under his feet piece by piece. The owner's man stood aside, stuffed a cigarette, handed his smile, and pointed to different positions on the pig's body. The pig-killer quickly cut out pork strips as ordered. After a while, the whole pig was divided completely.

The women who were busy on the side picked up pigs and put them in the water to clean up. The chef got a large piece of rib meat, washed it roughly, placed it on the chopping board, and used the knife to fly, cut it into slices, pieces, and silk.

Two pigs killed all the people onlookers, and the onlookers dispersed in unsatisfactory, and each found a place to play cards, chat, and wait for the meal to start.

At noon, Lu Dongguo and Lu Dong, who came back from school, came back. Seeing Lu Nan was not guilty, they ran over to play enthusiastically. Adults could serve the table, and the children could only serve food from the kitchen, carry a few pieces of fat meat, and ran outside to find a place to eat. Lu Nan was not used to fat meat, so they watched Lu Dongsheng and Tu Fangjun stuff the fat and shiny braised pork into their mouths, and even Lu Dongmei could eat two pieces, making their eyes round.

After throwing the bowl and wiping his mouth, Lu Nan looked at the children around him and said, "Let's go to Shangba Village to play."

"What's fun about Shangba Village?" Lu Dongguo was running his nose and skillfully wiped his sleeves.

"If you don't play, don't go!" Lu Dongsheng glanced at him and stood up: "Nannan, we'll go and catch bandits. We haven't played for a long time."

Lu Dongmei looked at her brother Lu Donghao, and her eyes showed a begging look. Lu Donghao was broken by Lu Nan with a stone, and her waist was bitten and bleeding. When she returned, she was scolded by her parents. She still had a bit of a knot in her heart. She thought for a long time but didn't say anything.

Lu Nan saw it, but ignored it and left on his own. He also wanted to investigate the silt land in Shangba Village.
