Chapter 449: The Lu Family is More Lively Than Chinese New Year
Talk later?
Someone immediately frowned: "Isn't it more expensive than the one sold at the commune?"
At this time, Aunt Lu sneered: "It's New Year's Day, are you still trying to get a bargain?"
"You still have to walk several kilometers to get to the commune."
"Besides, do you think you can buy this wild boar meat when you go there?"
"I'm telling you, he's got some conscience in him if he sells it to you for 1.2 yuan per pound, otherwise he should sell it to you for at least 1.5 yuan!"
What?
One dollar and a half per pound of wild boar meat?
Pork is only 78 cents a pound.
Well, that requires a ticket.
However, the meat in the village does not require a ticket, and it only costs one dollar per pound.
Huang Cuihua glanced at Aunt Lu San before speaking: "Okay, Damao is not that kind of person. It's New Year's Day, go if you want to eat."
"I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to go over and help."
No one paid any attention to this group of aunts and grandmas, and soon, Lu Hanzhou and his group entered the Lu family.
Seeing so many wild boars, both Mr. and Mrs. Lu were dumbfounded.
"Da Mao, have you found the wild boar's den?"
Lu Hanzhou laughed: "Mom, you are right, today we just took down a wild boar's den."
"Dad, go borrow two sets of butcher knives and we'll take care of it later."
“Hey hey.”
Dad Lu immediately rode out on his bike.
"Mom, you need to boil some water. You need to boil a few more pots."
Mother Lu was so excited. There was so much meat. She had never seen such a large amount in her almost fifty years of life.
"Got it, got it."
At this time, Xu Zijin came out and served everyone a bowl of coriander and ginger noodle soup.
"Warm yourself up first. The water has already started boiling over there."
"But there's no time to heat one pot. I see there's another big pot over there. There's half a tin barrel outside the yard. How about setting it up?"
That's an old diesel barrel.
Lu Hanzhou knew that it was the simple stove that the family used to cook pig food.
He nodded: "Okay, I'll do it."
"Xiao Liu, you guys go out with some firewood. I'll go get the pot."
A few people quickly finished their hot soup noodles and then quickly took action.
Father Lu was also quick. He borrowed two butcher knives in just over ten minutes.
Wangsheng and Gouya are both retired soldiers, and they are good at removing hair and cutting open the stomach.
Suddenly, the Lu family's yard was bustling with activity, and more and more people gathered.
There were six wild boars, four of which were big. If you removed their heads, feet and internal organs, they still weighed several hundred kilograms.
Lu Hanzhou asked his two comrades to carry 100 kilograms each, but they refused to agree. They just went up the mountain once and didn't even fire their guns.
"Twenty kilograms. I won't take more."
As soon as Wangsheng finished speaking, Gouya also said, "Hanzhou, twenty kilograms is more than enough. We appreciate your kindness."
How could Lu Hanzhou agree to that?
The gunpowder for their homemade guns also costs money.
"Since you don't want a hundred kilograms, that's fine. I'm going to have a wedding banquet after the New Year, so I'll probably need quite a bit."
"Each of you take 50 kilograms. That's it. Then you can follow me up the mountain."
oh?
Brother, are you having a wedding?
Now the two of them stopped arguing.
In addition to these two people, several other people who went out to play helped carry the wild boar, each weighing twenty kilograms.
In total, more than 200 kilograms were distributed, 100 kilograms were kept for the New Year, and the rest was prepared to be sold to fellow villagers.
"Today we sell all this meat for the New Year. If you want it, please line up."
At this time, someone asked: "Da Mao, how much is one pound?"
"Sixty cents."
What?
The person who asked the question was an aunt on the team.
Hearing this answer, she thought she had misheard: "How much? Sixty cents? Is it really sixty cents per pound?"
Lu Hanzhou looked at her and smiled: "Yes, auntie, 60 cents a pound, would you like two pounds?"
"However, each person can only take 5 kilograms at most, no more."
Who wouldn’t want such cheap meat?
The aunt nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, on that waist, give me two, not three pounds!"
Soon, people from several nearby production teams arrived, and a long line formed in front of the Lu family’s door…
"What are you showing off? Do you think you have too much money?"
The wild boar from Aunt Lu's family was sent to the town to be sold at one yuan per pound, not a penny less.
When she heard that Lu Hanzhou was selling wild boar meat at such a low price, she cursed angrily.
Fourth Aunt Lu didn't say anything.
Lu Hanzhou asked someone to send over two kilograms of meat and a pig's trotter, saying that it was to thank her family for the fish.
Compared to my third sister-in-law's family, who didn't even see a single pig hair, my second brother's family values friendship much more.
And the fish in her house is charged for.
The weather was very cold and there were many people queuing in the Lu family yard.
Two large pots were set up outside the yard.
There was not enough time for one pot, so I moved another one from my neighbor's house.
An old table was moved next to the two large pots.
On the old table, there was a large chopping board and a pile of bowls and chopsticks.
After boiling the water, Xu Zijin made two large pots of braised food.
At this time, the big pot was steaming and filled with rich aroma.
A pot of pig heads and pig feet, a pot of pig liver, pig lungs, and pig intestines.
Standing by the pot, I could only hear a gurgling sound...
"Sister-in-law, it smells so good! It smells so good! I want to eat it!"
As soon as the lid of the pot was opened, Xiaoliu started screaming and jumping.
Mother Lu glared at him and said, "Stand aside, don't get burned. You are not as sensible as the little ones in Ziwang. Look how well behaved they are!"
Xiaoliu: “…”
——My dear, I just want to eat some meat!
Liu Ziwang and his two brothers looked at their sixth uncle with sympathy, not daring to tell the truth: Grandma, we have eaten a lot of this, we are not craving for it anymore!
Xu Zijin also served a few bowls of marinade for the fragrant and hot pork head, and then invited the uncles, aunts and little kids from the neighborhood to start eating.
When those who were buying meat saw it, someone immediately spoke up.
"My dear daughter-in-law, are you going to sell this? I want to buy two kilograms."
An old lady was so greedy that she had never smelled such delicious pig head in her decades of life.
Everyone was eating, and Xu Zijin was scooping the meat out of the pot.
Hearing this, she glanced at the old lady and said, "Auntie, have a few pieces. I won't sell this anymore."
"It's New Year's Day, as long as everyone is happy."
Wow, this young wife is beautiful and generous. Is she the wife of Damao from the Lu family?
The old lady heard this and said, "Then I won't be polite. I haven't smelled such delicious pig head meat for a long time."
Xu Zijin chuckled: "You're welcome, you're welcome."
As soon as the old lady ate it, those who came to buy meat became less polite.
When Mother Lu saw this, she quickly called Lu Yuzhu over and said, "Fifth sister, go get some for your father and brother."
Lu Yuzhu wiped the oil off her mouth and said, "Dad and my eldest brother told us to eat later. My eldest sister-in-law left a big pot for us. Don't worry."
This delicious girl!
Mother Lu glared at her and asked, "Did you send it to your sister?"
Lu Yuzhu nodded repeatedly: "I sent it, I sent it, a big bowl of it, don't worry, mother!"
That's about right.
More and more people come here to eat meat.
There were a lot of children, and when they smelled the aroma of the meat, they all drooled and crowded towards the pot.
