The couple in the last days traveled to ancient times, farming and storing grain and meat in the war
Chapter 26: Preparing a Pig-Slaughtering Dinner
However, her father Xiao Fuhua said that Jiang Ningning's family was having a hard time, and if too many people from the clan went, it would be difficult for them not to prepare food, which would naturally increase their burden. So, they did not allow so many people from the clan to go, and therefore only a few people from the clan went to help carry the betrothal gifts.
"Yeah." Jiang Ningning had no objection.
"Brother Fuhua, I'm so sorry. I've troubled you." Jiang Shengcai said to Xiao Fuhua very embarrassedly.
Although there is no need to be formal with the in-laws, I am not a member of their family after all.
Xiao Fushan said with a smile: "He is my cousin, and he will be your close relative in the future. You don't have to be so polite to him."
Xiao Fuhua, who usually handled clan affairs very decisively, also smiled and said, "Yes, it's about making money. You don't have to be so distant with me. It's better to tie up these wild boars while they're still fresh and sell them."
"Yeah, yeah." Jiang Shengcai nodded quickly.
Xiao Ming and his team had already started working. The strong laborers were very nimble and quickly tied up the ten pigs and placed them on the carrying pole.
Xiao Fuhua couldn't help but pat Xiao Yan on the shoulder. He hadn't realized his nephew was so strong.
You know, this nephew has always looked weak. Sometimes he even thought that he could punch a dozen nephews like him with one punch.
Since Xiao Yan also helped to carry the wild boar, Jiang Ningning had to carry the basket of grass by herself.
In the past, when everyone thought of Xiao Yan as a scholar and his frail appearance, they would never let Xiao Yan help carry the things. But now Xiao Yan was very strong, so naturally no one stopped him from helping carry the things.
After all, this was the wild boar that Xiao Yan's family and Jiang Ningning's family hunted.
Shen Chunhua and Ma Xiaoxia had not yet gone up the mountain. Just as they left the village, they saw wild boars being carried down the mountain one after another. The team was very long. They immediately gave up going up the mountain and turned back to report the news.
"Dad, Dad, it's true! It's true!" Shen Chunhua shouted before she even entered the door.
Jiang Changcai, who had been pacing around the house and had no intention of working, was almost angry to death when he heard this.
I have even less energy to work.
Zhu was so angry that she almost went to see the King of Hell.
Ma Xiaoxia started shouting before she even entered the door.
Jiang Facai and Li were naturally furious.
Other people in the village also saw wild boars being carried down the mountain one after another, and their eyes widened.
I actually caught a wild boar!
Really ten heads?
When the wild boars were carried into the village, the villagers were so shocked by the huge bodies of each wild boar that their eyes almost popped out.
How many kilograms does this weigh?
Each one weighs at least 300 pounds!
Two of them are particularly large, and are estimated to weigh four or five hundred kilograms!
How much does this cost?
At this moment, who would not be shocked by the good luck of Jiang Ningning's family and Xiao Yan's family?
Xiao Fushan, Jiang Shengcai, Sun and Tian had no intention of selling all the pigs. It was a great joy to get so many wild boars, and with so many relatives coming to help, they had to prepare a pig-killing meal so that everyone could have a good meal.
Therefore, the four of them planned to sell only nine heads and keep one to kill at home.
Jiang Ningning and Xiao Yan naturally also agreed to kill one.
If the family didn't kill any of the pigs and sold them all, wouldn't there be even a pair of pig intestines left? How could she make meat sausage and starch sausage then?
Didn't they get the pigs in the first place just to bring this up?
However, because there was a lot of firewood in Xiao Yan's yard, which had not yet been moved into the woodshed, even though Xiao Yan's yard was bigger than Jiang Ningning's, there was not enough space to kill the pig at this time.
Therefore, the pig could only be carried to Jiang Ningning's yard for slaughter.
Jiang Shengcai has already gone to hire a butcher. There is a butcher in two villages and he can be hired soon.
Naturally, only one pig was carried into Jiang Ningning's yard, and the other nine were placed at the gate of Jiang Ningning's yard.
Xiao Ming and his friends, including Xiao Yan, went back to pull the carts.
Although there were ox carts in the village, there was only one ox cart belonging to Uncle Zhou's family, which was not enough. So they simply decided not to hire an ox cart and used a flatbed cart directly.
It is much easier to pull it with a cart than to carry it all the time. Lifting it will easily rub the skin on your shoulders. After all, it is to be sold in the town, which is such a long way.
Normally, many families in the village have carts, and almost every family in the Xiao family has one. This thing is mainly used to pull rice back when harvesting.
The only difference is that an oxcart is pulled by oxen, while a flatbed cart is pulled by people.
As soon as the pig was put on the ground, it was immediately surrounded by the villagers.
Everyone gathered around the pigs to look at them.
It’s really big… so big…
Some domestic pigs can't even be raised this fat...
Some people who hadn't eaten pork for a long time were drooling.
The village chief, carrying a hoe and preparing to go to the fields to work, saw the situation and squeezed in to see. When he saw nine big wild boars lying at the door and another one in the yard, his eyes widened.
After Jiang Shengcai invited the butcher, Xiao Yan, Xiao Ming and others also pulled nine carts, intending to put one pig on each cart.
At this moment, the villagers already knew that these wild boars were basically killed by Xiao Yan. They knew that Xiao Yan only looked weak, but was very strong.
But when Xiao Yan easily carried a large wild boar onto the cart, the villagers were still shocked. This strength...
"Village chief, remember to come to our house for the pig-killing meal at noon." Xiao Fushan, Jiang Shengcai, Tian and Sun all said to the village chief enthusiastically.
Whenever there is a big event or a happy occasion in the village and they want to set up several tables, they will basically invite the village chief.
"Okay, okay, I'll be there at noon." The village chief didn't bother to be polite with them and was grinning from ear to ear.
It’s not about the meal, it’s mainly a matter of face.
"By the way, village chief, please tell everyone in the village about the pit. If anyone goes there, they must be careful when walking, especially children. If they fall in accidentally, they might break their legs. The pit is really deep." The four people said hurriedly.
"I know," the village chief nodded. "I'm going to my family's farm on the mountain, so I'll stop by and take a look. I'll tell everyone about it later. Even if you don't go there, you should pay more attention to your feet. You never know, something might suddenly collapse."
Xiao Fushan and his three companions then shouted to the villagers who were still surrounding the pigs:
"We won't sell all of these pigs. We'll kill one. Anyone who wants to buy meat can come and buy it. The price is the same as wild boar meat in town. You can also exchange it for food, and the price will also be based on the town's price. It's all fine."
There are still many poor people who would rather spend every penny they have. If they had to buy it with their own money, most of them would definitely not be willing to spend it.
But when they heard that they could also exchange it for food, many people were naturally tempted and said they wanted to exchange it for food.
Then Xiao Fushan and the others would go to sell the wild boar.
Just going to sell nine wild boars would be too conspicuous. This is not like the village where there are acquaintances everywhere and something might happen on the way. Therefore, all the strong laborers of the Xiao family naturally went together, without leaving anyone behind.
People can take turns pulling the cart on the road, which makes life easier for people.
After what happened today, Xiao Fushan no longer felt that his son was weak. Moreover, his son could read, so naturally he let his son Xiao Yan go together.
Xiao Yan had originally planned to go together, so naturally he had no objection.
