The busiest one these days is the pig butcher. Almost all the pig farmers in the village have to kill pigs. Therefore, the pig butchers are almost too busy to turn around these days. Of course, some people are Kill it by yourself, or kill several families together, and Fang Shi's family is like this.

This is convenient for Xiang Yu. He is now the most familiar with Fang Shi and his family. It's not as big as the white pig in this world, but it can be regarded as the top number in their village.

Xiang Yu rubbed his chin and circled around the big black pig that was tied up and whimpering. This is authentic local pork. It was very expensive in previous lives, and you can't buy authentic pork.

Fang Shi looked at Xiang Yu circling around curiously and excitedly, and patted him on the back with a smile, "You kid, why do you look like a child." While talking, he pointed to the children who were also curiously watching .

Xiang Yu was also thick-skinned, and said with a smile, "Hahaha, haven't you seen such a big one before?"

Fang Shi was proud, "That's a good word." Everyone likes to hear good words, "You have to be careful later, don't let the pig's blood splash on you." Looking at Xiang Yu's fur clothes, it would be difficult to wash if it splashed on it.

Xiang Yu nodded. Although he was curious, he also felt a little scary, so he saw that they were already sharpening their knives at the fat pig, so he hurriedly stood a little farther away.

After the grunting fat pig was bled, all that was left was to scald it in boiling water, kill the pig and pluck its hair.

This time the pig slaughter was not just one pig, but several families were killed together, which saved the trouble of another family.Xiang Yu had already greeted Fang Shi in advance, and he ordered almost the whole pig.

Fortunately, Mrs. Fang's family raises a few of them every year, one is to improve the food for the family at the end of the year, and the other is to be able to sell some money for a good year and reduce the burden on the family.

Now even if Xiang Yu and the others have already ordered one, it will save them sending it to the city.

After Xiang Yu saw that they had finished slaughtering the pig, he happily took some of the parts he had designated earlier home, thinking about how to make the pork and what kind of dishes he would make as he walked.

......

The pork here is all ready, and the other side is ready to go shopping again. This Chinese New Year is not like the previous festivals. Throughout the year, this festival is the most grand and grand.

There were more people on the street this time than any time before, and they had finally bought all the things, and they were already sweating profusely, obviously it was winter.

"Hey, why didn't you bring your little baby here this time." Xin Zimo was in the store today rarely, looking at their big and small bags, but he didn't see the little bun. He still remembered that little bun, especially I like to climb on Yunyan.

Xiang Yu doesn't even want to roll his eyes now, he's exhausted, and he's most afraid of shopping, especially at the end of the year. Every year before, he was most afraid of being dragged out by his mother to buy new year's goods. It was torture.

Now he actually experienced that feeling again. Sure enough, no matter what time it is, he must have sufficient physical strength to go shopping during the New Year's Eve.

Youran is not as exaggerated as Xiang Yu, but he also looks like he is trying his best. He lazily raised his eyelids, "He is helping to watch at the neighbor's house now." Looking at them now, I am very lucky. Fortunately, I was wise before, Did not bring him here.

Xin Zimo looked at the two of them and laughed. He didn't understand this feeling. Anyway, someone in his family would buy it, not to mention that he should be happy now. The business in the store is booming these days.Many people are tired of shopping, and then come to their store to eat something, and it is the most important festival of the year, wine is also entering a peak sales, and other small meals are also sold out go a lot.

Xiang Yu's visit this time is also a good time to settle the dividends from the previous period. It happens to be Chinese New Year, which saves him a trip, although he is very happy.

With the money in his hand, Xiang Yule couldn't find Bei anymore, and his whole body seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood, and he was not tired anymore. He was refreshed instantly, and Xin Zimo couldn't help laughing at it.

Leisurely also raised her forehead, Brother Xiang was too excited.

But Xiang Yu didn't care, he kissed the bank note twice, and the other two were black...

When the two returned home, it was almost dark. Xin Zimo saw so many things from them, so he simply asked for help to take them home in a carriage.

He didn't have the energy to cook dinner, and when Xiaoxiao picked it up, Aunt Fang had already fed him, and everyone was already asleep, snoring like a pig.The two of them casually ate some packed food and took a rest in a hurry.

These few days, Xiang Yu and Youran were so busy that they were dizzy, and they finally ushered in the New Year's Eve in their anticipation.

The two of them got up early in the morning and had breakfast, and then they cleaned up and put up Spring Festival couplets. Naturally, these Spring Festival couplets were written leisurely. It can be seen what kind of words are written, there is no character at all.

Inside and outside, leisurely wrote the auspicious words for praying for blessings, from the [five grains harvest] in the Guotai granary to the [six animals are thriving] in the backyard, and the [going out to see the joy] at the gate, etc.After finishing writing, the two of them had to work together to paste it up. In addition, they had to prevent Xiaoxiao from making trouble. This little guy could smear ink all over his face if he didn't pay attention, or stuff red paper into his mouth. , and then the whole lips are blood red, the two of them have to pay attention all the time.

After finally posting the Spring Festival couplets, Xiang Yu began to distribute them again, "Youran, go and cook the meat we left earlier. I'll roast the pig's head later."

The two of them divided their labor and worked together, one went to cook the meat, while Xiang Yu set the fire to roast the pig's head. The pig's head was just bought yesterday, and it had been frozen all the time. He is now roasting the pig's head on the fire. Xiaoxiao and Dabai and Xiaobai circled around him, the hair on the surface of the pig's head had been scorched clean, the big pig's head was roasted brown, it was obviously not yet cooked, but it exuded a burst of burnt aroma.

It caused Xiaoxiao and Dabai Xiaobai to open their mouths and drool, even Xiang Yu salivated unconsciously. Of course, he also knew that the inside was probably still bloody, and it couldn't be baked so fast at all. baked.

He asked Youran to take Xiaoxiao away quickly. It was all fire, so he couldn't be allowed to get close. Now that Youran had cooked the meat, a large piece of wood had been placed in the stove, and he only needed to look at it occasionally and add it in time. Firewood is enough, so now he is also watching by the side.

After Xiang Yu shaved and cleaned the pig's head, he quickly found an ax to split it open, cleaned the inside again, cut off the tongue separately, and then it would be a good dish again.

After a while of busy work, the big pot was already emitting bursts of meaty aroma, Xiaoxiao they started to circle around the pot again, and the big white and small white's tails were wagging even more joyfully.

Xiang Yu laughed, "You two haven't eaten enough yet? Why are you just joining in the fun?" He had already thrown them a lot of meat, bones, etc. when he was cleaning the pig's head just now. .

The meat is cooked slowly first, and here Xiang Yu has to chop stuffing to make dumplings and croquettes. There are a lot of things to do. After a period of painstaking practice and research, ordinary food is already a piece of cake for him. It's just that it's troublesome to do, and now it's time to show off your skills during the Chinese New Year.

In the past, if someone told him that his culinary skills could only cook porridge and fried rice with eggs, but now he could cook a table of delicious meals, no one would believe it, not even himself.

Of course, although the food he cooks tastes good, it is still far from the chef's skill in color, fragrance and taste. However, it is also very good for their family, and Xiang Yu is full of sense of accomplishment.

He prepared several kinds of fillings for dumplings, such as leek eggs, cabbage, shiitake mushrooms, pork, etc. Each of the fillings is not much, but the taste is rich. Now You Ran is in charge of the coolies at home. Although he is not tall, he is not strong. Small, minced meat is just right for him.

Xiang Yu himself took advantage of his chopping time to prepare shredded radish for croquettes. He didn't like meatballs. These balls were deep-fried and a bit greasy. The vegetarian stuffing was just right. As for the meatballs, That's better than lion's head.

At noon, they just ate some meatballs to solve the problem. The freshly fried meatballs were delicious and crispy. The two of them ate a lot. Although Dabai and Xiaobai liked it, Xiang Yu didn't dare to give them more, because it was too greasy after all. Yes, as for Xiaoxiao, I can only follow along while drooling.

The two of them were not idle all day, and at night, Xiang Yu had prepared a table full.

When Youran saw it, her shocked mouth almost couldn't close. The table in their house was originally a big Eight Immortals table, but now it is full of food, hot and cold, meat and vegetables, and dry food. There are soups, and it is the first time he has seen such a hearty meal since he was born.

Before the Chinese New Year, their family’s food was better than usual, at most it was more fish, and it was far from being able to make such a table.

When Xiang Yu brought the cooked dumplings, he saw Youran in a daze, his expression made him very proud, the food on this table took a lot of thought from him, even though it was only for two people to eat, it couldn't be shabby, After all, it only happens once a year.

On one half of the table are braised pork knuckle, steamed fish, cold pork ears, braised pork tongue, dried bamboo shoots and old duck stew, braised lion head, and braised pork head meat. Of course, the steamed fish is placed in the middle of the table, and the other half is braised chicken wings, Sweet and sour pork ribs, stir-fried Chinese cabbage, ten plates on a table, symbolizing perfection.

To be a stranger in a foreign country alone, think of love every time during the festive season.

The two put the dumplings in front of the altar for two nights, and put incense sticks on them. One is to respect the sky; the other is to respect the parents;
