Rebirth of farming for a living

He Daru asked this question.

No one laughed at him for not having common sense.

After all, although He Daru has always been down-to-earth.

He doesn't understand this kind of thing and really doesn't need to understand it.

The butcher patiently explained to this unconventional scholar: "It's too late and everyone has bought all the New Year's goods, so the price of the meat won't be high."

At this time, it was not like the supermarket shopping malls of later generations.

If you want something, let alone New Year's Eve, even on the Spring Festival or the first day of the Lunar New Year, go buy it now and it will be on sale.

At this time, everyone will slowly start buying New Year’s goods many days in advance.

The common people have to celebrate the New Year, and business people naturally have to take a holiday to celebrate the New Year.

By the 27th of the twelfth lunar month at most, everyone will have all kinds of new year’s goods.

Of course, material life was not rich at this time.

In previous years, ordinary farmers did not buy many things.

Most people who don't feed pigs just buy some meat.

If you have the conditions, maybe you can buy a new suit if the weather is good.

People who feed pigs don't even need to buy meat.

After killing the pig, it is enough to keep a few pounds to satisfy your cravings.

That's why the butcher said this.

He Daru suddenly realized.

He thanked the butcher politely and said, "I have been taught a lesson. It can be seen that I am full of knowledge."

This kind of thing is naturally not found in the book.

He sighed so sincerely that it actually made the butcher blush.

Time was running out and I didn't want to delay any longer. I saw that the hot water over there was boiling and the pigs here were tied up firmly.

The butcher had no time to be shy and sharpened his already sharp knife.

The butcher, who is used to killing pigs, is very neat with his knife raised and lowered.

In a short time, the three cut-up pigs were neatly placed on the case.

He Daru, who had never seen such a scene before, was amazed again.

In addition to the pork, there were several large buckets full of pig blood on the ground nearby.

Although it was a mess, everyone had the same smile on their faces.

Killing pigs to celebrate the New Year is considered a good harvest!

The fresh pork is piled together, which is very satisfying.

"How do we divide this meat?"

The butcher opened his mouth and asked Li Xiangnan.

Li Xiangnan had already made plans in his mind.

Without much pause, he said a lot: "Pick the fatter ones, cut them into pieces that weigh more than a kilogram..."

This is a gift for everyone.

Most people nowadays like to eat fatty meat, and now the Li family, except Li Xiangnan, still like to eat fatty meat.

other people.

Unless it's braised pork or stew.

When it comes to cooking, everyone prefers leaner meat.

This is another manifestation of improved conditions.

Therefore, keep more thin ones for yourself and give more fat ones to others.

It can be said that everyone is happy.

The butcher understood, his hands were clear, and soon he shaved the bones out first.

There was a lot of meat left on the big bones of the pig, plus a lot of other meat that had been picked off. They were put in a bucket and sent to the front yard.

These are used to make pig-killing vegetables.

We're going to kill a pig today, and many neighbors will come over to eat the meat.

There is Li Zhong's wife and several maids.

Nowadays, Mrs. Wang no longer needs to make pig-killing dishes by herself.

But he's not idle either, he's also busy working around.

Sometimes he helps with this, and sometimes he helps with that.

The wind, wind and fire are spinning continuously.

In the backyard, the butcher cut a lot of meat weighing one pound in succession, which made people feel a little numb.

Let’s just say, there are so many people who need to give out boxing gifts, why don’t you forget to feed the pigs?

Yes, I can. No wonder they are rich.

He didn't know yet that the pig Li Xiangnan was fed on time and on time every day, not to mention taking too much care.

People's pig fat should also be used.

Cut off the last chunks of meat.

The butcher also finished sighing and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

it is finally over.

Li Xiangnan looked at the basket full of pork.

I thought to myself that I should send it out as soon as possible.

The action here did not slow down, and the butcher was stuffed with copper coins that were double the market price.

After all, the average butcher who kills pigs only kills and roughly cuts the pigs, but there is not so much meat to cut.

Unknowingly, Li Xiangnan also became a lot more knowledgeable.

Sure enough, the butcher who took the copper plate had a real smile on his face.

Despite some effort, no meat was received.

But with these copper plates, this income is not considered thin.

As for meat, where can’t it be harvested?

While the butcher was collecting the things, he also complimented the Li family a few more times.

Others responded, but Lao Litou narrowed his eyes with a smile.

Coincidentally, Old Li Tou still remembered what the butcher said before.

Seeing how neatly the three pigs were taken care of by him, I felt quite satisfied.

I simply don’t want to use Butcher Li from my own village.

I made an agreement with the butcher directly to ask him to come back in a few days to kill the pigs in the old house.

The butcher's smile became more genuine, and he rejected Li Xiangnan's good intention of letting him eat.

He took his leave happily.

And here, the big pot of butchered vegetables is also ready!

The fragrant pickled cabbage bone smell goes straight into the nostrils, and there are a lot of vermicelli in it.

There is even fried chili oil on the side for your convenience.

The staple food is large steamed buns with pure white noodles.

Everyone who came over for lunch stared blankly.
