The fertile water of farming does not flow to outsiders' fields

Sure enough, Xue Yinsong didn't mention the board anymore, and the two of them rested quietly for two days, when Shunzi's father came to the door, leading four black and white piggies.

Father Xue smiled happily when he saw it: "Papa Shunzi is here, Binghuan, go and pour boiling water."

Xue Yinsong looked at Piggy and said with a smile: "Uncle is so polite, I really brought Piggy here, you say accept it, the gift is too big; say you don't accept it, it's his wish, it's really not good decline."

Shunzi's father lowered his face: "How can you refuse this good deal, you have to accept it, it's my luck to save Dahua, otherwise this big pig and little pig would have made bacon by now."

Father Xue hurriedly took the piglet and handed it to his son, and said with a smile: "Take it! Take it! Look at how good this little pig is, it's really a good pig, please come to Shunzi's father." Xue Yinsong locked the piggy in the backyard In the middle of the day, I didn't want the big pig to yell and babble and run around when it saw the little pig. The four little pigs ran around in fright, and had to temporarily close a circle with the rabbit.

"Father, this big pig is going to bully the little pig," Xue Yinsong walked into the main room, "It looks like he's going to kill a pig." Shunzi's father hurriedly stood up: "It's easy, I know a pig butcher, tell me a day, I will kill you." call for you."

Xue Yinsong thought for a while and said: "If it is tomorrow, Dad, what do you think?" Father Xue agreed after thinking about it: "Okay, then tomorrow, so I will trouble Dad Shunzi to invite someone."

"What's the matter?" Shunzi's father was also very happy, "If it weren't for your kid Xue, how could I have four piglets for nothing? My pig is a famous black and white pig. Take good care of it, and I will definitely return it in the future." To be in-laws." Father Xue was taken aback, and Father Shunzi hurriedly said: "I mean pig in-laws."

Only then did Father Xue send people away with a smile, turned around and ran towards the rabbit pen as soon as the door was closed, looked at the four round black and white piglets, and narrowed his eyes with a smile: "This is really a good pig, look at this calf, Thick and short, this small head is round, and it looks like a fleshy face."

Xue Yinsong rolled his eyes: "Do you need to prepare for killing a pig?"

"Of course, you go to the stove to get a dustpan of firewood ash. When the pig was slaughtered, there was blood all over the floor, so you have to use firewood ash to wipe it off. Then borrow a car, and we will go to the city to sell pork tomorrow."

Xue Yinsong frowned, and had to bring it back if it couldn’t be sold out. He thought about it and asked, “Why don’t we sell some of the pigs in the village, and then sell them in Aunt Huan’s wine shop. I’ll divide the pork into pieces. , negotiate a good price with Aunt Huan, and she just weighs the scale and collects the money."

Father Xue raised his eyebrows: "The wine shop sells meat? Can you still waste it? No, I don't agree. The price of this pork will drop if it can't be sold the first day, and the next day. I can't let you mess around."

Xue Yinsong was not in a hurry, and patiently explained: "Everything has a process. It may be difficult at the beginning, but if you don't take that step, you will never be able to move forward. How about this, country people love to eat oil, I will save some fat and meat. Suet, just keep a little bit, even if you can’t sell it, you can treat it as my family’s improved food and eat it yourself.”

Unable to resist his son's begging, Father Xue had no choice but to agree, thinking about it, he told him uneasy: "Don't keep too much meat, the family can't eat that much meat, the wind direction has changed today, and the meat can't be blown through."

You have to get up early to kill a pig. Generally speaking, if you kill a pig at three o'clock in the morning, you have to boil water in the middle of the night. Xue Yinsong fell asleep for two hours after dinner, and went to the backyard to help. Not only did he need to boil enough water, but he also had to prepare a wide wooden bench. tied pig.

The pig butcher came soon and dragged the pig out of the pen first. When the pig saw that it was not in the right posture, it howled sharply, and the howling could be heard half a mile away. Naturally, the little scholar was not at home. Auntie led the way to the liquor store to deal with the night.

Seeing the pig butcher tied up the pig, Father Xue hurriedly took a basin to catch the pig's blood, and saw that the blood spurted out a foot away, and a strong fishy smell came out immediately.

This is the real murder scene. It was the first time Xue Yinsong saw the killing of pigs, and he felt a little weak in his legs. I was able to squeeze out some blood bubbles, and there was some sound at first, and then I slowly swallowed.

The pig butcher relaxed his expression, took out his dry pipe and smoked a few puffs to the side. After a while, he turned around, touched the blade slowly, and ordered hot water to be served.Because the pig has no container to hold it, we can only pour hot water on it continuously, and shave while pouring it.

The pig had never been bathed since it was born, and it smelled bad after being scalded by boiling water. Finally, Xue Yinsong couldn't help but shouted: "Father, you should keep watch. I won’t butcher pigs in my own house.” After saying that, he put down the water ladle and ran out, and the pig butcher still sneered at the back: “The younger generation now, oh…”

Xue Yinsong stood in the front yard and took a few breaths of fresh air. Feeling cold, he hurried into the house.The four little foxes sniffed his body, and kept coming to sniff him. One of the brave ones probably smelled some blood, and bit him hard.

Xue Yinsong angrily waved the four foxes away, went to sit for a while, and drank a few mouthfuls of cold water to calm himself down.

Not long after, Father Xue came over to call for someone. The pig hair had been blanched and the meat was ready to be divided.Father Xue saw that his face was ugly, so he ordered him to clean up, and he sat down and took the knife to divide slowly.

Bones are easy to sell this winter, and the spine, ribs, tail bones and tube bones are sold separately; the three stuffings on the stomach, and the front clip on the shoulders. The meat in these places is tender and can be sold at a higher price; the buttocks Poor people love to buy fat meat, it is considered a big meat and oil, and the oil in the stomach must be carefully skimmed out; the four hooves and hoofs are good things, and the pig's head must be carefully picked out... Xue The old man hummed a ditty and kept busy. Although he was oily, he was in a surprisingly good mood, and even the stink turned into a fragrance.

Xue Yinsong didn't want to get closer at first, but seeing the sky, if he didn't hurry, he couldn't get into the city in time, so he had to take an ax to split the spine into pieces according to his father's request.

The two of them worked hard all night, and finally divided the meat before dawn, packed it in a borrowed ox cart, and dragged it to the city.

The cow was still borrowed from Yingzi's family. In order to borrow this time, Mr. Xue gave back a piece of meat. His heart ached all the way, and he swore that he would buy the cow by himself in the spring.

However, both of them had never done business, and they were dumbfounded when they pushed the car into Changqiao Lane in the city. They saw that the whole street was full and there was no good place, and when they saw the two of them pushing a cart, they immediately showed their meat. Hostile, staring at the two of them.

Father Xue was a little timid: "Tiger, these people are local snakes. We are weak and we can't fight." Xue Yinsong sneered, and said loudly: "Who dares to touch me? I have been in prison before, and I can't fight with you." Are you afraid you won't succeed in a fight?" He patted the boning knife on his waist as he spoke.

Hearing what he said, someone whispered beside him, and Father Xue scolded: "Are you here to fight or to sell pigs?"

Xue Yinsong squinted and stared back one by one, and deliberately pulled his collar to show an impatient expression: "If there is a fight, the pig will be sold if there is no fight."

The two walked for half a street, and finally found a space at the corner and pushed the car in to park. Father Xue stood behind the car and took out the meat from the bamboo baskets and arranged them one by one.

Xue Yinsong looked around and saw that there were vendors selling vegetarian vegetables beside him, so he stood by the car and started yelling.

The whole street is quiet and quiet. Occasionally, some people say something loudly, but there are only a few sporadic ones, but Xue Yinsong doesn't care about it at all. As soon as he clears his throat, he jumps up and down like a cannonball. It's all a cliché for the sales promotion of the 2 yuan store. : "Passing by, don't miss it! Our pork is on sale right now! Come and have a look, you won't lose money if you don't see it, don't see it!"

Father Xue almost ran headfirst into the car and died, so he hurriedly stopped his son: "What the hell are you doing? You can't lose anyone, quickly come back and stand for me."

Xue Yinsong turned his head and said with a smile: "This is called a sales promotion technique, and the meat can be bought faster if you sell it." Father Xue saw that the people around him looked at them like they were fools, so he blushed and simply squatted down like an ostrich. Come out of sight, out of mind.

Xue Yinsong yelled endlessly, grabbed another piece of lean meat and gestured: "Look at this meat, it's all grown from pure natural, green, pollution-free, good grass and water! Look, this meat has fine texture, fresh and tender meat It is definitely good meat! Not only do we feed the pigs well, but we also clean them regularly, and our trick is to bathe the pigs! Yes! You heard me right, the pigs in our Lao Xue’s family have to bathe every week! And we also invited Scholar, read to pigs every day! I have read drama scripts, Four Books and Five Classics, and all the pigs of our Lao Xue’s family are well-educated! If you buy my meat, you don’t have to worry about the number one exam! If you cook my pig, you will be happy and healthy Family portrait! Stew the bones of my family, cure all diseases..."

Father Xue finally couldn't hold back and climbed up from under the car, and dragged his son to the back: "The more you talk, the more outrageous you are, just stay calm!"

Xue Yinsong was about to refute, but his father had a fierce look on his face: "Besides, I beat you up!"

Xue Yinsong sat down with his mouth curled up, and took a sip of cold water, only to hear a timid female voice above ask: "Brother, how do you sell this pork?"

Old man Xue didn't care to attack him, and stood up grinning in pain as soon as he bumped his head against the car board: "Which one do you want to buy?"

The other party was a young girl, at most 25 or six years old. She said with a blushing face, "I want to buy some lean meat. The old lady at home has bad teeth and teeth, so I want something tender."

Father Xue made up his mind and said with a smile: "Then put it forward, this is the most tender place, count it thirty cents a catty, I will try to skim off the fat, how do you think?" Xue Yinsong hurriedly stood up Said: "Miss, don't worry, the meat of our old Xue's family is absolutely tender! My pig..." Xue Yinsong just said a few words and was pressed down by Xue's father, but it was very unfortunate, because Xue's father just now Grab a hand of oil.

The little lady smiled and said: "I'm married, I'm not a girl." Father Xue didn't answer, he quickly cut a knife, drew out a catty and weighed it, then poked a hole in the meat, and put it on A bamboo stick was put on it.

Just now Xue Yinsong yelled and gathered some people, but when the little lady bought meat and left, the people gradually dispersed.The two waited quietly, occasionally passing by and asking questions, but most of them didn't buy much, only weighing half a catty, and they sold less than a dozen catties by noon.

Father Xue sorted out the meat on the chopping board and sighed: "Tiger, there is no end to sell out the meat today, and it will be frozen in the yard at night, so I have to borrow a car tomorrow."
