Chapter 21

After Xia Mu drank two bowls, he went to the back kitchen to help grandma feed the pigs. One of the pigs belonged to Xia Mu's family. It was raised by Grandma Xia and Grandpa Xia for them. Except for the piglets spending a sum of money, Grandpa Xia and the others are responsible for the pigs and weeds, and they kill them at the end of the year to make bacon.

As for eating fresh meat, just go to other pig slaughterers in the village and cut a few catties. Pigs are usually slaughtered until New Year's Eve in the village, so fresh meat will be available.

Xia Mu just heard that a family in the village will kill pigs today, so he brought a few buddies to the countryside, and at the same time cut a few catties of fresh pork to take home.It is impossible to eat bacon all the time, and fresh meat is also necessary.

The four squatted on a small slope where they could see the whole picture, watching the pig being carried out of the pigsty. In order to prevent the pig from running away, they tied it up when it was in the pigsty.

The pig is placed on a large overturned wooden barrel, and the pig butcher holds a long butcher's knife in and out with a white knife in and out with a red knife, and a large basin is placed below to catch the pig's blood.

The pig made a loud cry at the beginning, then it became inaudible, and finally there was no sound at all. The four of them knew that the pig was almost dead, but at this time, no one had lifted their hands from the pig. .

It wasn't until the pig's blood was almost drained, and the pig butcher said yes, that everyone took their hands away.The next step is to blow air on the pig, inflate it, and then shave it later.Then he carried it to the side of the earthen stove that had been dug a long time ago, and a large pot of boiling water had already been burned on the earthen stove.

The hunter and his son began to shave with a scraper.The pig pen that was still thick just now was quickly scraped off with the help of boiling water. After scraping a piece, the butcher would touch it with his hand to see if the pig hair on it was scraped clean. If it was not scraped clean, pour boiling water again , and then scrape.Anyway, if you slaughter a pig and shave it yourself in the countryside, you will definitely shave it clean. Unlike the pigs bought in the market, there will still be a lot of hairs on them that have not been shaved clean.

So when someone slaughters pigs in the countryside, Dad Xia likes to go back to the countryside to buy meat. Even if he comes to the countryside once, he has to pay a taxi fare of ten yuan or so, which is worth it.The people who buy in the market are actually Dad Xia and the others who are always terrified of eating dead pork and sow pork. The former will get sick after eating the latter, and the latter will turn sick (this is the house meat). I have heard the sayings since I was a child, and it is said that someone has really been recruited and suffered from illness).Therefore, most people dare not buy and eat these two kinds of meat, only those who are greedy for urination and are not afraid of death.Even the people who sell these two kinds of meat dare not eat them themselves, so Dad Xia is very careful every time he buys meat, and so is Mom Xia.

Before Xia Mu bought vegetables, he always looked left and right. The color of sick pork was a bit strange, so it was easier to recognize it.But sow pork Xia Mu usually depends on the pork with teats before deciding which one to buy.

But even so, there are still many unscrupulous people who use various methods to deceive customers, selling sick pork and sow pork as good pork.

The pig was scraped clean, and then carried to the cleaned wooden plank, and the pig butcher and his son began to disembowel the pig.

When the pigs were almost finished and the owner sold half of them, Xia Mu ran out of the small slope with his friends.Among the four, Guan Yu's face was a little pale, he was frightened by the slaughter of pigs.This kid was too timid, so Xia Mu kept him far away from the crowd and didn't let him approach.

Xia Mu bought ten catties of fresh meat, and asked the pig butcher to cut it into three pieces, each of which was about the same size.The next two yuan is for Grandpa Xia and Uncle Xia's family, Xia Mu can't buy it for his own family, so just ignore the grandfather's and uncle's family!

The four of them went back with ten catties of pork, and gave one piece to the uncle's house so that they didn't have to buy it again. They also gave the remaining two pieces to grandpa, and asked grandpa to store the other piece in the refrigerator for him to return home in the afternoon. Time to take it away.

With fresh meat, the grandfather asked the old wife to fry his favorite crispy meat for the little grandson, and made meatballs and so on.

There is a large table of dishes at noon, and they are not served on any plates. They are all served in large bowls, which makes a few young men who love meat happy!Xia Mu saw that the table was full of his favorite food, and there was a big bowl of rabbit meat, so he knew that grandpa and the others had brought out all the good things at home, and he reluctantly put down his chopsticks until he couldn't swallow any more. , if he can be stronger, he can eat more today.

I squeezed my arms which were a little thinner compared to ordinary men, why didn't he gain weight!What's even more depressing is that he's eighteen this year, and he hasn't even grown a beard, unlike the other buddies who have to shave every two days, so he doesn't need it at all.For this reason, Wang Chengcai also said that he was not manly enough, and Xia Mu pushed him to the ground and beat him up before taking back his words.

In the afternoon, the four of them ran to the river to play. There were fish in the river, so the four of them sprinkled cooked rice in the shallow water of the river, and then ran to the rocky beach to catch crabs.Although it's just an ordinary river crab and it doesn't have any meat, it's fun to eat. Xia Mu also took a pot and prepared sauce from his grandfather's house.

Wash the caught crabs with water and throw them into the pot, and cook them with the firewood they picked up directly.

Stuffed some big firewood under the temporarily built stove, and then a few people took the baskets, nets and buckets to the river where the rice had been sprinkled just now, and the few people joined hands to lower the nets, and in the end they caught a lot of fish. Xia Mu looked at it, and the biggest ones weighed a pound, and they were all grass carp.The smallest of the remaining small fish was as big as a palm, but he liked it so much.

Put the fish in a bucket with water, and take it home later.Then a few people ran back to eat the cooked crabs. Of course, unlike meat crabs, there was no meat to eat except for two large tongs, but the few people ate very happily, and what they wanted was the game.Xia Mu also took a photo, and planned to send it to the space when he went back at night so that the students could see their achievements today.

After eating the crabs, they washed the pot by the river, and the four of them went back with the fish, baskets and nets.There were also small screws in the basket, which they scooped up together when they were catching crabs, and it happened that Xia Ma could fry them when they returned home at night.It is boiled in water first, and then fried with oil and chili on high heat. When eating, the meat will be in your mouth as soon as you suck it, which is very fragrant.

When Xia Mu came home at night, besides small screws and fresh meat, he also packed fish in buckets. These fish are not the farmed fish bought in the market, but real wild fish. Now these fish are getting less and less. It is one or two times more expensive than farmed ones in the market, and it is often not available!So Xia Mu took all of them back except for some soup left for his grandparents.

Xia's mother was very happy when she saw it, and immediately took the bucket to the kitchen to make it. If she didn't make it, she would die.Even if Xiamu was very careful on the road, a few small fish died, and I felt so sorry for Xia's mother.

Xia's father was called in by Xia's mother to help, while Xia Mu stayed behind to greet his classmates.In the end, the four simply sat by the TV and watched the news. It was a habit they developed in high school. Their school would let students watch the news for half an hour every night at seven o'clock in the evening. It was the only TV that everyone could watch. So now Xia Mu When I have time, I will sit down and watch it, even if I know that the reality broadcast in the news is definitely not like that, but it is better than nothing!

While watching the four of them chatting with melon seeds, Xia's mother and Xia's father quickly handled the fish in the kitchen, which should be fried, steamed, and braised, sweet and sour, and hot and sour. Anyway, it was done tonight. A large table of whole fish feast, several people were hooked.

Usually, it would cost hundreds of dollars to eat such a table outside, but today these fish cost nothing except labor costs, and everyone caught them with their own hands, so the taste is naturally more delicious than usual three servings.

After resting for half an hour, several people took turns to take a shower in the bathroom. There are two bathrooms in the house, one is next to the dining room, and the other is in the master bedroom of the parents. The room was washed, anyway, it was my parents, so there was nothing embarrassing about it.

The three of Guan Yu stayed at Xia Mu's house for three days. If the family hadn't called to remind them, they still couldn't bear to leave, so they got into the car without looking back.They have been running to the countryside for the past few days, and the three of them almost forgot their surnames.I never thought that the countryside is so fun, and the people in the country eat all natural food, and they are happier than the people in the city.Thinking of the vegetables that had been soaked in pesticides, the three of them even begged Grandpa Xia for a lot of vegetables they grew at home.They wanted to pay, but Grandpa Xia didn't accept anything. Not only did he not accept it, but he also gave them a lot. He even gave each of them a piece of bacon, which weighed about two or three catties.

Xia Mu sent away his good friends and started his dark closed life again. At this time, he had already moved from his sister's room to his own room. Of course, he did not forget to clean the rooms of his sister and brother. They will be back in a few days , It happens that you can move in directly without cleaning up.

After Xia Mu completed all the backlog of work and sent it to the client, the brothers and sisters also came back.

"Xiaomu."

Xia Wei hugged her younger brother, and wanted to repeat the same trick, but Xia Mu hid him.

"I don't want to be beaten to death by your boyfriend."

That's right, Xia Wei talked about a boyfriend.This was earlier than in her previous life. I don't know if it was because of his problems that caused a butterfly effect. In this life, Xia Wei did not meet the brother-in-law in her future memory.In her previous life, her elder sister met someone unkind and was tricked by a scumbag. Although Xia Wei managed to get a lot of compensation from the scumbag in the end, it still couldn't change the fact that she was bullied by a scumbag.

My sister has never met a scumbag in this life, and now she has never been pursued by a scumbag, nor will she be scolded by her mother-in-law as a chicken that can’t lay eggs after marriage. In fact, all the responsibilities were put on Xia Wei's head. If it hadn't been confirmed that he was infertile, my sister would have suffered a lot.
