Chapter 183: kill wild boar
Looking at the people in the courtyard, Yang Yu finally felt the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year. Yang Yu was in charge of providing hot water for the people who killed the pigs, while Zhou Wei helped a group of people kill the pigs. Because the wild boar was already dead, there was a lack of squeaking in all the yards. Even so, many neighbors came to watch.
"The second child, is the water ready?" shouted the man in charge of the knife.
Yang Yu: "Come right away." Because of the crowd, a large iron pot has been built in her yard, and the whole pig has been put in it. The iron pot was borrowed from a pig butcher in the village when Zhou Wei came back.
Yang Yu walked out directly with the pot in his hand, and poured the hot water into the iron pot. The stove was too slow to boil water, so he directly heated a pot of hot water in the kitchen with an earthen stove.
But obviously the water was still not enough, so Yang Yu went to the main room to take out the kettle on the stove and poured it together, which was barely enough. The yard was already full of people, and everyone was doing nothing at this time, so adults and children came to watch the fun, and a large group of people were already surrounding the yard.
Aunt Wang looked at the old lady Zhou who was standing beside her, and said with a smile, "You are so lucky! Your son and daughter-in-law are so capable."
The old lady Zhou was originally here to join in the fun, and by the way, see if she can make some cheap money. Hearing Aunt Wang's words, her face drooped instantly, and she said angrily, "What's the luck, what's so good about a white-eyed wolf."
Aunt Wang looked at Zhou Wei who was slaughtering pigs, and said with a smile, "Such a capable child, some people still don't know how to be content."
Listening to Aunt Wang's sarcasm, she couldn't stay any longer, and with a light snort, she changed places and stopped standing with Aunt Wang.
After Yang Yu poured the hot water on, the bottom of the pot was also set on fire. The pig slaughterers skillfully dehaired the pigs. This was not an easy job to do. It was fast and meticulous. Fortunately, there were many people, so it took half an hour to remove the hair. All the pig hair is gone.
Then there was the disemboweled belly, and the pig offal was made into a plate, but there was not much pig blood, because the blood was too cold to get out.
Looking at the wild boar with white flowers, some people in the crowd began to ask: "You guys can eat this big wild boar, do you want to sell it to us?" Because the Chinese New Year is approaching, every family lives in the poor family. I always want to get some meat.
This sentence just responded to what they had discussed before, and one of them, who looked very popular, replied: "We will sell it after we divide it, so that everyone will be happy."
"Okay, then you can't divide all the good meat away, you have to leave some for us, or I'm afraid it won't sell well!" The man in the crowd said with a hearty smile.
A very popular person replied: "Everyone is watching here, don't worry!"
When it comes to dividing the pork, the first thing is to let Zhou Wei pick it, after all, he is the hero who killed the pig. Zhou Wei found Cha Niang in the crowd and said to her, "You want that part of the meat."
Yang Yu looked at a piece of Bai Huahua. To be honest, he really didn't have much appetite after looking at it like this, but he still said, "Let's have a pig's hind legs!" After all, the pig's hind legs looked better.
Zhou Wei walked over and said a few words to the person who killed the pig, and one of the pig's hind legs was removed. Afterwards, according to everyone's efforts, they quickly divided the pigs, leaving almost half of the wild boar.
The people in the crowd who had spare money saw that their families had been divided, and An Nai couldn't help but ask, "What's left of you are sold! How much is a pound."
Although they are wild boars, they are blooded after they have died, so they are not as easy to sell as freshly slaughtered pigs, and the price will not go up. The villagers also took a fancy to this, so they all gathered around their house to pick up a bargain.
A few families got together to discuss it, and finally set the price for seven cents a pound, and then let the most popular person in the village come out.
"Be quiet, big guy. Although our wild boar was only bleed after it died for a day, if we pull it down and sell it in the town, it will be about the same price as a pig that is slaughtered now, but it's all from the villagers. Come on, so we negotiated a pound of seven wen, which is about to celebrate the New Year, and let the big guys feel happy."
Aunt Wang said to the people next to her, "This seven cents per pound is half cheaper than pork. Besides, we pay attention to whether they have just died. It would be good to be able to eat meat." After speaking, she squeezed into the crowd.
The aunt next to her said, "Sister Wang, wait for me!" After that, she followed closely.
After listening to Qiwen, the villagers rushed forward one by one, fearing that they could not buy it. Old Mrs. Zhou looked at the noisy crowd, not only did not rush in, but even retreated to look for the tea lady in the crowd.
She didn't plan to **** it like this group of people, she opened her mouth and asked the tea lady if she didn't believe she wouldn't give it to her. It's a pity that she didn't see Cha Niang after looking around, because at this time Yang Yu was standing in the crowd helping to collect money.
Although wild boar meat is very cheap, because people don't have spare money nowadays, everyone doesn't want a lot. Just squeeze forward to get good meat.
The big guy was busy until the end of the day and it was sold out. When the big guy was gone, he saw the old lady Zhou standing against the corner of the grocery store. There are many people today, so Yang Yu told Zhou Ze to close the door of the grocery store early.
Seeing that everyone had dispersed, the old lady Zhou walked towards Yang Yu with a smile. As soon as Yang Yu saw her, she felt bad.
"Cha Niang, how much does your family share?" Mrs. Zhou asked, looking at the kitchen.
Yang Yu moved quietly, blocking the door of the kitchen just to block Old Madam Zhou's line of sight. Yang Yu looked at the old lady Zhou and said without a smile: "Mother, why don't you go there, it's the end of the day, sister-in-law must have breakfast, I'll be waiting for you."
She really couldn't understand how the old lady Zhou could be so thick-skinned this week, even knowing that Zhou Wei wasn't her own, she was licking her face to ask for something. You said that if you were good to Zhou Wei, they would respect her, and you said that you were not as good as an outsider to Zhou Wei, and you still calculated them every day. If you wanted something, they could give her, and this dream was too good.
Mrs. Zhou: "Since it's the end of the day, then I won't leave. You can cook quickly! I'm eating here today."
Hearing the old lady Zhou's words, Yang Yu was shocked and said directly: "Okay, mother, just wait! We have breakfast late, so we will have one in the evening."
"What! You said you didn't cook at noon?" Mrs. Zhou asked in surprise. She ate little for breakfast and is hungry now.
Yang Yu: "What's the matter, I won't cook anymore. I'll save on eating at night." Then he closed the kitchen door and locked it in front of Mrs. Zhou.
