Reborn 1960 The little orphan girl has some money

The next morning, before An Moxue finished cleaning up, Xiao Huzi shouted outside: "Aunt Moxue! Aunt Moxue!"

An Moxue asked as she walked out, "What's going on? Little Huzi."

"Aunt Moxue, are you going to share the prey on the drying ground today?"

"Go? What do you want to do?"

"My mother asked me to ask you. If you want to go, she wants to go with you. Just call me at my house when you leave later."

"Okay, go back and tell your mother. I'll call her to go with you later."

"Okay! See you soon, Aunt Moxue!" Xiao Huzi said and jumped away.

An Moxue finished cleaning up the house, dressed up and went to Xiao Huzi's house.

She did not go in, but shouted at the door: "Sister-in-law, little tiger, are you ready? Let's go!"

The voice of Little Huzi's mother came from the house: "Wait a minute, she'll be out soon!"

After a while, Ergouzi's wife led Xiao Huzi out.

"Sister Mo Xue, we have to go early, otherwise we won't be able to see the large piles of prey if we go late, and it won't be easy to get good meat. It makes me happy to see so much meat, so let's go quickly."

After saying that, he let go of Xiao Huzi's hand and took An Moxue's arm.

The two of them talked about hunting together, and An Moxue asked some questions that interested her.

When she arrived at the drying area, there were so many people there. She asked Ergouzi's wife, "Sister-in-law, why are there so many people?"

Ergouzi's wife smiled and said, "You didn't know that after dividing the prey today, we will organize a group risotto when we go down. Of course, everyone who can come has come. I'm afraid this is the time when the most people in the village come. .”

"A big pot of rice together?"

"Correct."

"What kind of dishes are there?"

"Pork offal stewed with pickled cabbage is filled with some leftovers, pork, pork bones, pork blood sausage, and some offal. It tastes really good. We can't make this taste at home. .”

The little tiger ran away early and disappeared. An Moxue was dragged in by Ergouzi's wife by her arm. Finally, when she felt that she was going to be squeezed, Ergouzi's wife brought her to the front.

Good guy, I have learned a lot, there are many preys, and there are several oversized pots next to them.

This was the first time An Moxue saw such a big pot, and she curiously asked Ergouzi's wife: "Sister-in-law, where do all these big pots come from? How many people do you have to cook for them?"

Ergouzi's daughter-in-law said to Yourong, "You've never seen it before! These pots are old. Every year when I come back from hunting, I use these pots to collect prey and cook food. I also use them to cook in large groups." Here’s the food! I’ve made a great contribution!”

"Oh my God! The person who cooks in this pot is really good. He doesn't have a lot of strength to do it!"

"That's right. You can't even lift the rice shovel or vegetable spoon without any arm strength."

At this time, the village cadres have weighed the prey and piled it aside to be delivered to the town. Later, the village chief will take the people from the village militia company to the purchasing station in the town, and the accountant will stay to preside over it. Divide the meat.

Now, someone is driving over in a car to pack the separated prey.

The raging fires under the large pots here have already heated up the water in the pots. The warm steam encountering the cold air makes the drying area look smoky.

There are many people but there is no chaos. Some are responsible for boiling water, some are responsible for removing hair, some are responsible for disemboweling, some are responsible for cleaning internal organs, and some are responsible for making pig blood.

There is a clear division of labor, each performing its duties.

Children are walking among them, and everyone is smiling.

It seems that they have forgotten that some people were injured and some almost lost their lives because of this winter hunting.

Some people just feel the joy of eating meat right away and sharing the meat.

After a few hours, all the meat was cleaned out, and dividing the meat was the bulk of the day.

Next to each squad leader stood a scorekeeper and next to him a butcher cutting and dividing the meat.

The first people to divide the meat are the team members participating in the winter hunting, then the meat is divided on a family basis, and finally it is the educated youth's turn.

An Moxue also got a piece of pork, which weighed half a catty and was entirely lean meat, as well as a small piece of pheasant meat.

Educated youths are given lean meat. People don’t have much money these days, so fat meat is the best meat.

Even the meat on the bones is cleanly shaved, but there is no ribs. If they are bones, they are just bones, with no meat at all.

Even so, the bones are still good for making soups and stews!

Even the leftover bones are broken into powder and fed to chickens and pigs. There is nothing wasted. Even the pig hair is washed and sent to the recycling bin to be sold for money.

After people had divided the meat, there were far fewer people drying it in the drying area. They all took the meat and went home.

Aunt Guo, Aunt Meihua, and several other aunts who were familiar with An Moxue all waved to her and told her to come over.

"Aunts, what are you calling me for?"

Aunt Guo said while cutting the meat in her hand: "Have you finished dividing the meat? Go home quickly and warm yourself up. I'll get a big bowl to serve the food later."

"Auntie, when will you feel better?"

"It won't take long, about an hour! Come early, you still have to queue!"

"Auntie, you must be able to cut quickly, your knife skills are so good!" An Moxue praised her heartily.

Aunt Dagui said proudly: "When we were in the group, we were all cooking at the stove, and we did this three times a day. Who can do it if we are too slow!"

"Wow! Aunts are amazing!"

"Okay, let's go back quickly! It's very cold. I want to sit down on the hot bed at home and chat as hard as I can tomorrow."

"Aunts, I'm leaving!"

"Go back! We'll be in line soon."

"understood."

An Moxue slowly returned home carrying two pieces of meat.

After staying at home for a while, I took the bowl and left the house.

When An Moxue arrived at the drying area, there was already a queue for some distance in front of several large pots, and it was getting longer.

Groups of children gathered around the big pot, some sniffing, their eyes full of longing for the pot.

The waiter shouted, "It's time to eat!" 'The crowd gathered quickly, rushing in like a flood.

When it was An Moxue's turn, Aunt Guo gave her a spoonful full of meat, and another spoonful of vegetables and soup to cover it.

An Moxue felt warm in her heart and walked back with a bowl of pickled cabbage stew. She met an educated youth from the Educated Youth Academy and said, "An Zhiqing, we from the Educated Youth Academy want to have a dinner together tomorrow, let's come together!"

"Okay! Do you need anything?"

"Just bring a pound of meat." An Moxue's expression was a little subtle.

Today we shared exactly one pound of meat, and all the meat was eliminated during this dinner. The new educated youth shared the same amount as her. Are you sure you won’t eat it in the future or during the Chinese New Year?

"Is everyone a pound of meat?"

"Of course. Have you asked a few educated youths like me?"

"You still need to ask? Why don't you still participate in group activities?"

"But do you know how much meat we shared?"

"How many?"

"Half a pound of pork, half a pound of pheasant meat. Now that I have eaten all the meat, what will I eat during the Chinese New Year?"

An Moxue didn't look at his changing expression and walked straight towards home.
