After breakfast on the 29th, every household carried basins and bowls, and both adults and children happily went to the yard behind the army canteen, for fear that they would not be able to get the good meat if they were late.
Xiang Nuan also took a small basin and pulled Yan Fangming to join in the fun.
The family next door also went out together.
"Mom, the pigs are coming!"
When they arrived at the place, Sun Jinbu pointed at the three big fat pigs being dragged out of the pen by the cooks and shouted excitedly.
Many children also came forward excitedly like him.
"Everyone's child, watch out! Don't come close and hurt them!"
Pigs will also resist and will not sit still and wait to be killed. When the kitchen squad leader, Lao Cui, saw so many furry kids coming forward, he quickly spoke out to remind them.
Upon hearing this, the parents hurriedly pulled their children to their side and spanked those who did not obey.
The more people there are, the more lively it is. Xiang Nuan squeezed to the front and watched the cooks slaughtering pigs. The three pigs were estimated to weigh more than 200 pounds each, and it took four or five people to hold one pig together.
The three pigs seemed to have known their tragic fate. They struggled and roared desperately, and Xiang Nuan felt uncomfortable listening to them.
I don’t know if I can get some pork belly later. It’s so delicious when used to make dumplings.
"Hold on! Hold on! Hold on!"
One of the big spotted pigs with black spots was struggling so hard that the four or five men had a hard time catching it. The one holding the knife warned them loudly.
Just then, someone couldn't help but sneeze, and his hand slipped, giving the big spotted pig an opportunity. It swung its arms wildly, making the people who caught it stagger. After regaining its freedom, it began to run around wildly, trying to escape from this brutal place.
It doesn't understand why the person who feeds it every day wants to kill it now.
The situation got out of control in an instant. The people in the kitchen team hurried to catch the pig. Men like Yan Fangming who were watching the fun also came to help. The women hurriedly protected the children and hid far away to avoid being accidentally hit.
Xiang Nuan also tried to hide, but the big spotted pig seemed to know her. It turned a corner and rushed towards her. There was a child beside her, whose family she didn't know. She didn't have time to think about it. She pushed the child away, raised the enamel basin in her hand, and smashed it on the big spotted pig's head with all her strength.
The bottom of the enamel basin was deformed by the smash. The big pig was stunned for a moment. Xiang Nuan took the opportunity to grab its neck and knocked it down. Fearing that it would struggle again, he gave it a good beating on the head.
Yan Fangming, who was not far away, was so frightened when he saw this scene that he rushed up at the fastest speed in his life.
"Wife!" He then shouted at the shocked men around him, "What are you still standing there for? Catch the pigs!"
These people reacted and quickly reached out to help. Xiang Nuan was also pulled aside by Yan Fangming to carefully examine her hands and body.
"Wife, how are you? Are you not hurt?"
He was almost scared to death when he saw the pig running towards her just now. If she wasn't so strong, it definitely wouldn't have been the pig that was injured!
Xiang Nuan smiled and said, "I'm fine, my hand just hurts a little."
I didn't feel anything when I was beating him, but now that I've stopped I feel the pain in my hands. After all, the pig's head is still very hard.
Yan Fangming felt so distressed when he saw her red hands. If he had known earlier, he would not have come here. He did not have to eat the pork.
"Let's go to the health team and get some medicine to apply."
He was about to pull Xiang Nuan away, but Xiang Nuan refused, "Oh, it's okay, it will be fine in a while, the meat hasn't been divided yet."
"Squad leader, the pig seems to be dead!"
Someone in the crowd exclaimed!
Squad Leader Cui didn't have time to be surprised. He squatted down to check and said quickly, "He's not dead yet. Quick, bring a basin and let him bleed!"
When slaughtering a pig, you must bleed it while it is still alive. Once the blood is drained, the pig is dead and the taste will not be affected. If the pig dies without being bled, the blood will remain in the meat, which will neither look good nor taste good.
