After taking a shower, I sat on the kang in the main room and wiped my hair. I thought that my second sister and his father would probably come to the house to kill pigs in a while. I had better take the time to have lunch now. I have been doing physical work since the morning. I have been very hungry for a long time.
I took out a braised pork rice bowl and a cup of milk tea that I have always loved, and started to enjoy it.
Twenty minutes later, looking at the empty plate in front of me, I put down the spoon in my hand, touched my belly and sighed: It feels so wonderful after eating and drinking.
After putting the dishes in the kitchen and washing them, I thought that hot water would be needed to kill the pigs. Last year, the team used hot water to kill the New Year pigs, so I used an earthen stove to boil a large pot of hot water.
Seeing that the second sister and the others hadn't come yet, I planned to go to the yard to pick out the chestnuts I picked up today. However, before I could pour the chestnuts out, I heard someone knocking on the door of the yard. It seemed that I couldn't pick out the chestnuts now.
When he opened the courtyard door, he saw Er Mei and his father standing at the door, so he said, "Uncle Pingjiang, Er Mei, you are here. Come in and have a drink of water."
"No, Xiaoxiao, we're not thirsty, so we'd better hurry up and kill the pig, otherwise it would be a pity if it smells bad as you said."
"Uncle Pingjiang, I'm going to trouble you next. I've already boiled the hot water."
"What's the trouble? It's all hard work. Compared with how you take care of our family, this little thing is nothing. If there is any hard work in the future, you can come to me. Although your Uncle Pingjiang is not smart, you have a Use your strength."
"I will definitely not be polite to Uncle Ping Jiang, but what should Uncle Ping Jiang do first by killing the pig?"
"Do you have a large wooden barrel or basin at home? Before killing the pig, you should scald the pig with hot water so that the hair on the pig can be easily scraped off."
Thinking of the bathtub and wooden basin I bought at the third uncle's house when I was buying furniture, it seemed that they had been kept in the house without a chance to be used, so he said: "Uncle Pingjiang, I have a bathtub and wooden basin, and they are placed in the main room. , you and I go in and see which one is suitable and use it.”
When he came to the main room, Liu Pingjiang saw the bathtub and wooden basin in the corner. He thought about the size of the wild boar in the yard, so he said, "The wild boar in the yard is relatively small, so this wooden basin is enough."
Watching Uncle Pingjiang skillfully put the wild boar into a wooden basin, scalded it with hot water, and then began to scrape the hair off the wild boar's body with a knife.
Half an hour later, all the fur on the wild boar was shaved clean. Then I saw Uncle Pingjiang using his knives to disembowel the wild boar. Then he saw him remove the heart, liver, and lungs from the wild boar's belly. , belly, and intestines were all cut off and put into a basin.
"Xiaoxiao, the wild boar has been killed. Please see how you want to cut the wild boar. I will cut it for you so that it will be convenient for you to eat later."
"Uncle Pingjiang, my second sister and I found this wild boar together, so it should be half a family. You first split the wild boar in the middle and then I will tell you how to cut it."
After hearing this, the second sister immediately said: "Xiaoxiao, we can't have this wild boar. You were the first to discover the wild boar today, and you were the one who killed the wild boar. And you also saved me, the second sister, and the third sister." , how can we ask for your wild boar meat."
"Second sister, you can't say that. Although I killed the wild boar, you, the second sister, and the third sister also helped me make the raft and carry the chestnuts back home. Without your help, I wouldn't have been able to bring the chestnuts home." Bring the wild boar home.”
