He dropped the bloody thing, turned around and quickly disappeared into the night. No one noticed that such a huge thing flashed by in the night.
It was dawn and Liang Qi woke up but couldn't fall asleep again. He lay on the kang for a while, then slowly got up and put on his clothes.
I shivered with cold. The day was getting colder and colder. It was already November and the time was passing by so quickly.
She had nothing to do after getting up early, and she couldn't go to the mountain. What should she do next?
And Jiang hadn't contacted her either. After so many days, had he woken up? Did he no longer need her?
As long as it's okay.
Never mind, let’s just live in the present. We haven’t starved to death yet, so just wait for the food to be distributed.
Liang Qi put on his clothes and got off the kang. There were still some vegetable pancakes left from yesterday morning, so he didn't make breakfast.
Since I didn't need firewood, I didn't rush out of the yard. I went to the mill to see that there were still peas and corn kernels.
If you can't do it today, you can grind some corn bran, cook it into porridge, and add some alfalfa and sauerkraut to eat.
I cleaned up the millstone and swept away the dirt and spider webs on it.
I needed a stick with more support to turn the mill. I searched the yard but couldn't find one.
Open the door, remove the stick holding it up, and open the door.
Damn it! Liang Qi took a few steps back in shock. He was so frightened that he didn’t notice anything. The ground was covered in blood?
The more Liang Qi looked, the paler his face became. This was a pig, and its body was full of holes from being stabbed. The blood had all flowed out, and black blood clots had formed on the wounds.
The fur color was similar when I checked the trap yesterday. Who would leave something in their house for no reason?
It seems that after entering the forest yesterday, the mother and daughter have been in the sight of an unknown thing. Otherwise, how could they find their home so accurately?
Is this pig being returned to them? Is that a good thing? Or is it something bad that needs attention?
Liang Qi's expression wasn't as ugly anymore, which should be considered a good thing, right?
She clasped her hands together silently and said to herself, no matter whether you are a human, a god, or something else, she should not do this anymore in the future. Her heart can't take it anymore and she doesn't want to live in fear.
One day, this unknown thing might break out and attack them, and she wouldn't be able to defend herself.
From now on, it is better not to go up the mountain unless it is absolutely necessary.
After thinking about this, Liang Qi turned his head and looked at the pig.
This pig looks to be about 100 pounds, with black mane and a fat round butt.
Liang Qi looked around and saw no one. The busy farming season was over and the villagers wouldn't get up so early, so they hadn't come out to visit each other yet.
Liang Qi hurriedly pulled up the pig, but he failed to lift it the first time. The pig weighed probably more than 100 pounds, maybe 200 pounds. Liang Qi tried his best but still failed.
It could only be carried by dragging it on the ground, leaving a blood-red trail that extended to the back of the house. Liang Qi dragged the wild boar to the small cave dug in the wall behind the house.
When no one was around, he picked up a shovel and shoveled away the blood on the ground.
He looked again and saw no bloodstains at the front door. This made Liang Qi curious. Why didn't they leave any traces after delivering the pig? It didn't make sense. At least there should have been blood dripping.
No matter, they must have taken the pig from her trap, so they compensated her.
The pig was quite large. How could she peel the skin off? And removing the internal organs was also a big undertaking.
There is only one pig, not enough for every household in the village to share, not even enough to fill their teeth.
She gave the meat to those who laughed at her and mocked her, especially the relatives of the Liu family. She felt annoyed just by seeing them. It would be better for her to keep the meat for herself than to give it to them.
Besides, she is not that generous. She is just selfish. In this age of hunger, every penny saved counts.
Don't they have a good meal? Wouldn't it be foolish to share meat with your enemies? Being generous and poor won't win you a sincere heart.
Liang Qi still took it for himself and would give some to Aunt Agui when the time came.
First, I had to remove the hair from the pig. It happened that when I was cleaning the room that day, I found a urea bag from somewhere, and there was plastic inside!
She figured out how to remove the hair from the pigs, which was to dig a deep hole in the ground as big as a urea bag.
I immediately took action as soon as I thought of it and took out the urea bag. It looked quite large and was more than enough to hold the pig.
Depending on the size of the bag opening, loosen it a few fingers slightly, as long as it doesn't fall down.
Liang Qi's hand strength has increased since he came here, and when he saw the pig again, he was full of strength.
In a short while, she dug a vertical bucket pit and put the urea bag in, which was just the right size.
I took out the bag and put it on the pig again. The width was just right, but the height was still not enough because the pig was too tall.
When the time comes, there’s no need to tell you how long the pig will be when it’s hung on the rack.
Then just boil it in water and it will be fine.
Liang Qi found a few more rafters and tied them together with hemp ropes to build a frame, so that the pig could be dropped down and moved up and down, which was much easier.
After tying up the rack, Liang Qi tested the rack's load-bearing capacity. He pulled the rope and swung it around a few times, and saw that the rack was stable.
Liang Qi lowered the pig and the bag into the pit. They fit perfectly, with only the pig's butt dangling outside.
After finishing all these, Liang Qi walked out of the cave, wiped the sweat from his face, and saw that someone had already started making breakfast.
Liang Qi went to the upper room to check on the child. He was still sleeping and didn't want to wake him up.
She also started to boil water. Fortunately, there was water in the jar that she had picked out yesterday morning, which she used today.
She also followed everyone's pace, with smoke coming out of the stove. Otherwise, she would light the fire when others were not making breakfast, as she was afraid of attracting other people's attention.
Water was boiling in the pot, and I poured five buckets of water into it. While the water was boiling, I took out the whetstone and sharpened the sickle to make it sharper so that I could cut faster.
Okay, Liang Qi picked up two buckets and poured them down the pig's butt. After he finished pouring them out, it was full.
Liang Qi tried to see if he could remove the hair from the pig's butt.
The hair on the butt is okay. After two buckets of water, it should be almost gone.
I also found a sealed broken jar to cover it, so that the heat would escape slowly and stay hot for a longer time.
Looking at the pig that was still being covered, Liang Qi picked up another bucket of water and placed it next to it.
Liang Qi took away the can covering the pig and quickly pulled it out. He plucked the hair quickly and sprinkled some dirt on the pig. This way, the hair could be plucked quickly without slipping. The friction made it easier to pluck the hair.
It's slow for one person to work, but Liang Qi was not slow because he was very strong. He worked hard and it took him an hour to pull out all the weeds.
"Mother!"
When Liang Qi heard the child crying, he ran home without washing his hands.
