Chapter 177 Killing Pigs

Mother Ma didn't enter the office as if she had discovered a new world, and left quietly.

Uncle Fu Gui sent the can out, and the big stone that weighed on him finally fell.

Ever since he came back from the county seat, he has had trouble sleeping and eating, and when he thinks about stealing before, he feels very guilty towards Xue Ning.

I always feel that my life is over and there is no way to save it.

Incomparably tormented.

After several days of anxiety, Uncle Fugui finally plucked up the courage to take the little savings left in the family and bought canned food for Xue Ning. This would alleviate some of his guilt and at least make him feel better.

Uncle Fu Gui returned home in such a happy mood.

When her daughter-in-law saw her at home, she said, "You picked up the money today. You were so happy. When you went out in the morning, you still had a sad face."

Uncle Fu Gui said: "It's nothing to do with you, go and cook quickly, get something delicious today, take out the cornmeal that is about to grow worms, and eat pancakes."

The rich daughter-in-law is not willing to part with it, "What to eat, let's get some wild vegetables to eat and eat, what's the condition of the family now! You have to save some money after eating the last meal, by the way, next month my brother The daughter-in-law is born, I am so proud of being a sister, I thought about buying two pieces of cloth to send over, and then you can see if you can go to the town to get cheap cloth."

Uncle Fugui was stunned for a moment, feeling a little uneasy, "Two pieces of cloth can get you a lot of money, and our family doesn't have much money, so we can send over the remaining catty of cornmeal at home."

The rich daughter-in-law was dissatisfied, "What kind of talk is that? That's my own brother-in-law, how can a sister be so stingy."

Uncle Fugui couldn't hold back, and yelled, "Don't think that I don't know what you're thinking. If you have any money and good things at home, you are always thinking about your mother's family. What are the conditions of your family? Do you want to live? Anyway, this Nothing depends on you."

Uncle Fugui left after finishing speaking, and stopped breaking up with his wife.

The rich daughter-in-law looked puzzled, "It's really heartless. When did my mother think about her mother's family. It's really crazy."

The quarrel between the two is often seen in the village, nothing unusual.

Soon came the day when Xue Ning's pigs were ready for slaughter.

After raising the pigs for more than half a year, the little piglets that were only a few kilograms have turned into fat big pigs.

On the day when everyone in the village was on vacation, Xue Ning told the village chief about planning to kill pigs.

She raised two pigs, one of which was to be sold to the purchasing station, and the price at the purchasing station was sixty cents a catty.

Xue Ning didn't plan to buy the remaining one, and was going to kill it to eat, but such a big pig had a lot of meat, so she couldn't finish it, so she could sell it to the villagers.

When the village chief heard that the pigs were going to be slaughtered, he had a plan.

"My wedding day with your Aunt Chen is coming soon, can I buy dozens of catties of pork from you then?"

Xue Ning agreed, "No problem, I will definitely keep an eye on you, the village chief, so don't worry!"

Everyone in the village knows about Xue Ning's pigs being slaughtered. Now Xue Ning is quite prestigious in the village. Firstly, she leads the villagers to make a fortune. Secondly, she is also the clerk and scorekeeper in the village. Those who are officials can easily be offended.

No, the young and strong people in the village came to help early on, and some aunts and aunts were not idle, and they all came over.

There are many people who need help in killing pigs.

Those who boil water to remove pig hair, and those who cook for helpers, counting miscellaneous things, at least a dozen people.

However, there are more than [-] people from Xue Ning's side today.

Mu Chenghe was also there, and Xue Ning only prepared to slaughter the pig when he came back from vacation, otherwise it would be impossible without a man at home.

Uncle Fugui came even earlier, and even Liu Mingyuan, who hadn't shown up for a long time, came to help with the pigs. The scene was very lively, just like Chinese New Year.

There is that kind of large scale for weighing pigs in the village, Mu Chenghe went to get it, and a few young adults tied the pigs up and put them on. Once the pigs were weighed, my dear, this is terrible, it weighs 300 catties!

This made the villagers dumbfounded, and they circled around the pig and looked at it again and again.

You must know that this pig has only been raised for half a year, and other people's pigs raised for half a year can't reach a hundred catties, but the pig raised by Xue Ning has grown to 300 catties, which is really scary.

The villagers were amazed and admired Xue Ning even more.

Immediately asked her for advice on how to raise pigs, and they became more confident in raising chickens. Pigs can be raised to such a large size, and chickens will definitely not be too bad. Maybe there will be a 20-jin chicken at that time. But it's even worse.

While the villagers were discussing, they got the pigs out of the pigsty, tied one end and sent it to the buying station, and kept the other end at home to kill. The village chief even asked someone to drive a tractor to go there.

When they arrived at the buying station, the people in the buying station were also amazed. Looking at the chubby pig, it was extraordinarily majestic.

Xue Ning immediately became famous in the commune. Whenever anyone mentioned the Red Star Brigade, they would say, "Oh, there is a female educated youth who is very good at raising pigs. She can raise 300 catties of pigs in half a year. That's amazing." gone."

As soon as this reputation spread, the surrounding brigades came to Xue Ning every day for advice on how to raise pigs. Even the leaders of the commune invited Xue Ning to impart knowledge on how to raise pigs.

But this is all for later.

Let’s talk about the sale of pigs at the buying station. Originally, the buying station paid [-] cents a catty for pigs, but they gave Xue Ning [-] cents, because Xue Ning’s pigs were big and fat enough, and he didn’t lose any more.

A pig was sold for 210 yuan in this way, and the net profit was about 160 after deducting the cost of [-] to [-] yuan. This deal is quite a bargain.

Going back from the buying station, the family is ready to kill the pigs.

The pig butcher in the village sharpened his knife, and Mu Chenghe put on an apron and held the pig with a few men.

The pig butcher raised his knife and dropped the pig's blood into the prepared basin.

Then began to punch holes in the pig's trotters to blow air on the pig, blowing up the whole pig body, then poured boiling water on it, and began to scrape the pig hair with a scraper.

Mu Chenghe shaves with the pig butcher. Although Mu Chenghe's experience in shaving pig hair is not as good as that of the pig butcher, he is a quick learner, and in the end he can shave pig hair faster than the butcher.

After the hair of the pig is shaved, the stomach is disembowelled, the internal organs of the pig are cleaned out, and the whole pig is divided into two pieces and placed on the chopping board.

The pig butcher and Mu Chenghe were in charge of dividing the pork.

Villagers who need to buy meat can come and choose first. Xue Ning didn't make money from the villagers, so the price he gave them was the same as the buying station, seventy cents a catty.

First, the village head bought a quarter of the pork, which weighed about fifty or sixty catties, and the meat was going to be kept for the banquet.

Then the villagers came to buy whatever they needed.

Some are half a catty, some are one catty, and some are three catties, all of which are not much.

In the end, a total of 150 catties were sold.

The remaining pork is divided into small pieces and put into baskets, waiting to be stored later.

The place where the pig was slaughtered was bloody everywhere, and Mu Chenghe was not idle, sweeping and mopping the floor, he was as busy as a spinning top.

An old woman said to Xue Ning: "Your family is hardworking, and works quickly and carefully. Xue Zhiqing is really lucky!"
