Someone actually said that pork didn't taste good, and that's when everyone noticed a stranger standing next to them.
"Who are you?" An old man then noticed the stranger who had come to the village.
Before Sun Qi could introduce herself, He Tiantian came up from behind and explained, "This is my dear sister's son, Qianqian's older brother."
"What……?"
Li Qianqian and Sun Qi both looked at He Tiantian. Well... they did need an identity in the village.
Looking at the two of them, like a golden couple, their appearance, their attire, their demeanor... they are definitely rich people.
Women from several villages began to tease, "Wanzi's mother, you've suddenly got two distinguished guests at your home. This year's New Year is going to be very lively."
"Yes, I just looked at these two kids and they look alike. They really are a family."
Several women looked at Sun Qi and Li Qianqian with friendly smiles.
Sun Qi and Li Qianqian exchanged a glance, their expressions... I really don't know if these people have an eye disease?
Li Qianqian: How do they look alike!
Sun Qi: What kind of nonsense is this about siblings!
At this moment, Granny Wang, leaning on her cane, came to He Tiantian. She said, quite embarrassed, "Wanzi's mother, this old woman has a favor to ask."
He Tiantian had a good impression of Granny Wang; Granny Wang had helped her when she was down on her luck.
Knowing that gratitude should be repaid, He Tiantian smiled and took Granny Wang's hand, saying, "Granny Wang, why are you being so polite? Just tell me what you need."
Granny Wang pointed to a bowl of cut pork, then tremblingly pulled out twenty coins from her bosom.
"I'm too old to go to the city. You have so much pork at home, can I buy some from you?" Granny Wang said, feeling quite embarrassed. "It's almost Chinese New Year, and I want to give my grandson some nourishment."
He Tiantian knew that it wasn't easy for Granny Wang to raise her grandson alone, so she immediately took out a piece of pork from the basin.
"Of course, it would be a waste to not be able to finish so much pork." He Tiantian took the money and gave away a piece of pork that probably weighed two or three pounds.
The others had wanted to bring it up for a long time, but they hadn't found the right opportunity.
Seeing that Granny Wang had gotten such a great deal, Sister-in-law Wang also took out some money from her bosom. "Wanzi's mother, I also want to buy a pound of pork."
"Can I buy a pound of pork to make dumplings?"
"I want to buy a pig's tail; my husband loves to eat it."
"I'd like to buy some pig lungs and liver, could you give me a discount?"
Seeing so many people wanting to buy, and since they were all from the same village, He Tiantian couldn't very well refuse.
She announced loudly, "Pork is expensive in the city right now, and it's almost Chinese New Year. I have more pork than I can eat anyway, so it's 25 copper coins a pound. Anyone who needs it can buy it. Limited to 100 pounds per person."
This pig weighs 300 jin (150 kg). Even after removing some miscellaneous parts, the pure meat alone is estimated to weigh around 200 jin (100 catties).
Those pig trotters definitely can't be sold; we'll keep them for ourselves. And the pig offal—the villagers wouldn't be able to cook it properly anyway, so we won't sell it either.
They ate the leftover meat themselves for the whole year and were still very happy with it.
