"Mom, is this how you kill a pig?" Goudan turned his head and asked Zeng Wenjuan curiously.
"Yes! There are a lot of hairs on pigs, which cannot be eaten. These uncles and grandfathers shave the pig hairs together, so that our dog won't have to eat the hairs when eating." Zeng Wenjuan explained with a smile.
"Then I will also learn to kill pigs when I grow up." Goudan thought it was very interesting and said with some anticipation.
A grandfather who was originally scalding pigs turned around and smiled after hearing what Goudan said: "It's good for a little kid like you to have such an idea. When you grow up, you can eat meat every day. You must work hard! Go get a job in a meat processing factory in the future."
"Grandpa, I know. When I grow up, I will definitely work in a meat processing factory. When you come to buy meat in the future, I will be the first one to sell it to you." Goudan said happily when he heard someone agreed with him.
"Hahaha...Okay, okay, if I can live to that time, I will definitely come to buy meat." Grandpa laughed when he heard Goudan's words.
When the pig was almost cooked, they lifted it onto the chopping board. A middle-aged man said loudly, "Children who are scared should leave immediately. Otherwise, we will not be responsible if they have nightmares at night."
"Mom and Dad, I'm not afraid. I want to be a butcher when I grow up. I will start learning from now on." Goudan was afraid that Zeng Wenjuan and Zhao Jianguo would take him back to the house, so he held their hands tightly and said.
Zhao Jianguo felt that Goudan was a boy and needed to be able to withstand pressure, so he did not take him back to the room.
The butcher took a kitchen knife and cut open the pig's belly, taking out the pig's internal organs. He threw some of the inedible internal organs into the garbage bucket, and put the pig's offal aside. Then he cut the pork into pieces, and after doing all this, the butcher put down the kitchen knife.
"We agreed before that you would give me two pig's trotters. You can't go back on your word!" the butcher said to the groom's father.
The groom's father nodded and said, "No problem. Your wife just gave birth to twins for you. It's time to eat pig's trotter soup. You can take this piece of pork back with you! And if you want any of these pig offal, feel free to take them."
"No, no, your family is having a wedding today, so I'll just take what I'm supposed to take. I'll take the things home first and come over to help later." The butcher said happily, holding the pig's trotter.
He just had a pair of twin sons, and his wife was malnourished. But there weren't many jobs like slaughtering pigs now, and there were few families that could slaughter a whole pig. Fortunately, the Chen family was going to hold a wedding banquet.
After the pork was put in place, the cooks began to prepare for cooking. The cooks were all from the village and their cooking skills were the best in the village.
"Come here, three of you, don't stand there. I cooked some noodles for you to eat, so you won't have time to eat when you have to help with work in the morning." Zeng Yike walked over and said to the three people.
The family of three followed Zeng Yike to the kitchen. When the cooks saw them, they immediately greeted them warmly: "You haven't eaten yet! Come over here quickly! This is a big bowl, I'll give each of you a big bowl!"
Under the enthusiasm of the cooks, Zeng Wenjuan and Zhao Jianguo each held an extra-large bowl filled with noodles, but the noodles were mixed with bran and a bit thick.
After dinner, they began to work hard. Zhao Jianguo, whose leg had not yet healed, helped to light the fire, while Zeng Wenjuan helped to cut vegetables.
Goudan went to play with other children. The children were lying on the ground playing with green frogs. Another child said, "I heard from my mother that the bride and groom will give out candies and red envelopes today. We children can run to the front and grab them."
"Red envelope? How much money should be in the red envelope?" Goudan knew there was money when he heard the red envelope and asked happily.
"I don't know either! The red envelope should have one or two cents! The amount of each red envelope is different." The child who spoke just now shook his head.
The little girl squatted beside him and said: "Anyway, they will throw a lot of red envelopes, so we can just grab as many as possible. Even if it's just one cent, we can get a lot of money."
After being reminded of this, Goudan also thought of it. He was looking forward to it happily, waiting for the bride and groom to appear. If he could grab them first, he could save more money.
…
As the sun was setting, a big kid shouted, "Here comes the bride." A group of people rushed out to grab the front row so they could get more candies and red envelopes.
Goudan also used all his strength. Unexpectedly, he ran ahead. As soon as he went out, he saw the bride handing out red envelopes and candies.
He started picking up the falling red envelopes and candies. After they were all scattered, Goudan's pockets were full of candies, and he still had a dozen red envelopes in his hands. He stuffed the red envelopes into his inner pocket and ran into the kitchen happily.
She shouted happily: "Mom and Dad, I found a lot of candies. They said that eating these candies will make you very happy."
In fact, when the candies were being scattered, the bride shouted: "Good health, happiness and longevity." But after Goudan ran for a while, he completely forgot all about it. He only remembered that eating candies made him very happy.
"Oh, the little kid grabbed so many, so cool. Can you give one to your auntie?" It happened that the kitchen was almost ready at this time, and everyone was chatting and relaxing.
Suddenly Goudan came in and started shouting loudly. Everyone looked over there, and the aunt smiled and joked.
Goudan was not a stingy person. He took the candy and walked over: "Auntie, this is for you. This candy is very sweet."
Seeing Goudan being so generous, the auntie quickly waved her hand to refuse: "No, no, auntie is just joking with you, eat it yourself. You will be successful after eating the candy."
Seeing that his aunt refused, Goudan didn't waste any more time talking to her. He ran to Zeng Wenjuan and said, "Mom, look, I grabbed so many candies."
"You're so awesome, how come you stole so many? Then you keep them for yourself, don't lose them, or you'll cry." Zeng Wenjuan searched through Goudan's pockets and said in shock. The kid is not very big, but he's very lucky, picking up so many.
Goudan took out a few candies from his pocket and handed them to Zeng Wenjuan: "Eat them, Mom."
"Okay, thank you Goudan. The kitchen smells heavily of oil smoke. You should go out and play first. The aunts and sisters are about to start cooking dinner. You should eat with them later." Zeng Wenjuan took the candy that Goudan handed over and said to him.
Goudan shook his head: "No, I want to eat with mom and dad. I want to wait until you come."
"There are enough people in the kitchen. You and your wife should take the child out. The child is young and it is the time for him to rely on his parents." An old lady in the kitchen said with a smile.
