After paying the public grain tax and getting the food distributed, I had some free time.
After that, everyone often went up the mountain to collect firewood and buy mountain products.
After picking chrysanthemums and aconites, there are also shiitake mushrooms, wood ear mushrooms, Hericium erinaceus, red pine mushrooms, sour dates, jujubes, wild pears, etc.
For a period of time, Guo Haochen and his friends got up early and went out before having breakfast.
Or they would go pick apricots and jujubes as soon as they got home from school. After a while, Guo Haochen and his friends got a lot of snacks.
If we can’t finish the food, we will dry it and store it to eat later, which makes the two little ones at home very happy.
... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Before we knew it, it was the coldest time of the year.
Seeing that the weather was getting colder, the production team decided to slaughter the pigs as soon as possible.
Guo Youxing also raises task pigs at home.
So, early in the morning, Guo Youxing and Liang Xueying went to the backyard to drive the pigs out.
Their pigs were not very heavy, probably around 120 pounds at most. Two pigs would weigh at least 200 pounds.
Most of the other people's pigs weighed about 70 or 80 kilograms, and some even weighed over 100 kilograms.
Guo Youxing's family raised two pigs weighing more than 120 kilograms.
When they rushed out, everyone in the group was stunned.
Because everyone's pigs are similar, only Guo Youxing's pigs are slightly worse than the team's pigs.
Everyone asked Liang Xueying how they raised such fat pigs and asked her to teach them.
Liang Xueying said that the children in her family were diligent and would go to pick grass to feed the pigs whenever they had free time. If the pigs were full, they would grow meat.
Everyone thought so too. The pigs in the team had plenty of food, so they were fat only because they ate too many sweet potato vines.
Oh, how come other people's children are so capable?
Finally, the brigade secretary left a few pigs to distribute to the villagers and took people to hand over the pigs.
Then Guo Youxing organized people to slaughter the pigs.
The man tied the pig to a wide bench.
Then kill the pig and bleed it. This step is very critical. Use a sharp knife to stab the pig's throat into the heart. The knifeman must be accurate and ruthless to kill the pig with one blow.
The gushing pig blood flows into the basin on the ground. Add some salt to the pig blood and wait for half an hour for it to cool and solidify.
The women went to boil water and asked the men to remove the pig hair and divide the pork.
Finally, the villagers decided to make a pig-killing dish using pig blood, pig heart, pig liver, pig lungs, and pig intestines.
Let everyone enjoy a steaming hot pig-killing banquet.
Everyone was very enthusiastic and motivated after hearing this.
At the same time, those who were washing their large intestines were washing their large intestines, and those who were chopping pork were chopping pork.
Some people went to move firewood and get the big pot, while others built the stove.
Some people even went home to get some pickled cabbage, mushrooms, etc. and made a big stew.
By around 11:30, the steaming hot pig-killing dish was ready.
The aroma spread from ten miles away, and the air of the whole village was filled with the fragrance of stewed meat.
Look, before Deng Qingling even left the house, Guo Haochen and Guo Haoxi, who had gone to watch the pig slaughtering, ran back home.
Guo Haochen shouted loudly as soon as he entered the yard.
"Mom, mom, come out quickly, the pig-killing dish is ready."
Everyone who heard the noise in the house came out.
"Brother, what is the pig-killing dish?" Xiao Haoran asked curiously.
"Yeah, what kind of dish is this pig-killing dish? I only know about sauerkraut, Chinese cabbage and mustard greens, but I don't know what pig-killing dish is." Guo Ningwan had never eaten it either, and she also wanted to know.
"The pig-killing dish is pork, pig offal, and sauerkraut stewed together. It's so fragrant and delicious." Guo Haochen swallowed his saliva when he thought of the delicious pig-killing dish he had two years ago.
"Wow, big brother, I'm hungry just from what you said. I'm going to eat three big bowls later." Xiao Haoran said while touching his little belly.
Everyone burst into laughter when they heard Xiao Haoran's bold words.
"Hahaha, how much can you eat with such a small stomach? You actually said you want to eat three big bowls." Guo Ninghuan said while still holding his stomach and laughing.
"Hehe." Xiao Haoran looked at everyone laughing and laughed too, not caring that everyone was laughing at him.
"Okay, Haochen and Haoxi go get the dishes and chopsticks, Huanhuan take her brother, we'll go out now." Deng Qingling said with a smile.
After hearing what Deng Qingling said, the Guo Haochen brothers went into the kitchen to get the dishes and chopsticks.
Then Deng Qingling pulled Guo Ningwan out.
Guo Ninghuan happily pulled Xiao Haoran and followed Deng Qingling, while Guo Haochen and the others walked at the back.
As soon as they reached the threshing ground, Guo Haochen and Guo Haoxi smelled the fragrance, gave their bowls and chopsticks to Deng Qingling, and ran to the threshing ground impatiently.
"Go slower, be careful not to fall." Then Deng Qingling turned to Guo Ninghuan and said, "Hold on tight, brothers and sisters. There are so many people here, so we need to walk slowly."
"I understand." Guo Ninghuan said as he held Xiao Haoran and Xiao Ningwan's hands tightly.
When Deng Qingling and her friends arrived at the threshing ground, they saw three large iron pots standing beside the ground, bubbling with steam and the aroma of stewed meat.
When the breeze blows, the fragrance goes straight into people's noses, and even the gluttony in their stomachs is aroused.
Lanbom, Jiebom and Aunt Shi were standing in front of the big pot, stirring the meat and sauerkraut in the pot with a big spatula.
Smelling the fragrance, Guo Ninghuan hurriedly pulled his younger brother and sister over.
Wow! It smells so good!
As soon as he walked over, Guo Ninghuan took his younger brother and sister to call for help.
"Hello, auntie."
Lambem and the others responded with a smile. They saw Guo Ninghuan came to eat the pig-killing meal and did not forget to bring the two little ones with him. What a good kid he is.
The two little ones stared at the pot in front of them and swallowed their saliva from time to time.
