The couple in the last days traveled to ancient times, farming and storing grain and meat in the war

Before Xiao Yan and the others went to sell the wild boar, Jiang Ningning and the others had already started getting busy.

The hot water was gurgling as it boiled. When the butcher came, he scooped out the hot water and poured it all into the pig-killing bucket.

Knowing that she would be too busy, Tian had already called her cousin, Yang, Xiao Fuhua's wife.

He also called several daughters-in-law from the clan to help.

These daughters-in-law all love to talk, and for a while, Jiang Ningning's home became more lively.

Tian and Sun also took Jiang Ningning with them to invite Xiao Yan's great-grandfather, Xiao Pingshun, Xiao Fuhua's father.

Although the old man is over seventy years old, he is still in good health.

He was leaning on a crutch and didn't ask the younger generations for help. He happily followed the younger generations over.

The old man was sitting on a lounge chair in the yard, leaning on a cane, watching the pig being slaughtered. He was so happy.

Although it is not the Chinese New Year, it is better than the Chinese New Year.

All the children of the Xiao family came to play, especially when the butcher took out the pig bladder, the children all scrambled for it and wanted to kick it like a ball.

Jiang Ningning helped the children blow up a thin bamboo stick, tied it tightly with a rope, and then threw it on the ground for the children to kick.

The children kicked the ball out directly, and attracted many other children from the village to come and play, kicking the ball together, with laughter everywhere.

Old man Xiao Pingshun smiled so that only his two front teeth were visible.

Seeing the butcher taking out the pig intestines, Yang said with regret, "It's a pity that there is no blood in this wild boar, otherwise we could make blood sausage."

Jiang Ningning took this opportunity to ask for the pig intestines.

Sun, Tian and others didn't understand why she wanted this, but they didn't have time to ask. Not only were they busy preparing the pig-killing dishes, but someone had already brought food to exchange for meat.

The men in the family have all gone to sell wild boars, so now it is natural for them to do these jobs.

Those who come to exchange meat basically only want to exchange one or two kilograms of meat, and they are reluctant to exchange more than that.

Basically, they exchanged it for brown rice, and I never saw anyone buying it with money.

When others came to exchange meat, it was naturally a normal exchange, but those who had helped Jiang Ningning's family, and those who had helped Xiao Yan's family, the Sun and Tian families naturally did not exchange normally, so the butcher cut a lot more for them.

How could those people have the nerve to ask for it?

It was Sun and Tian who forced the people and the meat in together, and even pushed them out of the yard. The people had no choice but to carry a lot of extra meat back.

Until there were fewer people coming to exchange meat, Sun was busy alone. As they were short of tables and chairs, Tian took two people to her house to move them.

There are several tables at noon.

Jiang Ningning was still squatting there washing pig intestines.

Make sure to wash it thoroughly without any odor.

By the time Jiang Ningning had cleaned the small intestine, no one came to exchange the meat.

Sun went back to the kitchen to busy herself.

In order to prevent others from coming to exchange meat, the remaining pork had naturally not been put away. However, the butcher really had nothing else to do, so he sat aside and talked to old man Xiao Pingshun.

Generally, in addition to receiving wages for slaughtering pigs, the butcher will also leave some food for the butcher, unless he has to go to slaughter pigs for someone else.

But it's not the New Year or any other festival now, and there are few people in the surrounding villages who would slaughter pigs. The butcher is naturally very idle and has already agreed to stay for the pig-killing dishes at noon.

Jiang Ningning put the washed small intestines away, wiped her hands, and walked to the large chopping board where the pork was placed.

The butcher saw this and didn't rush over. He just laughed and asked loudly, "Ning girl, do you need any help?"

Jiang Ningning smiled and said, "No need, I can just cut a little myself."

The butcher thought there wasn't enough meat in the kitchen and she was going to cut it up to cook there. He didn't care and just reminded her, "Be careful with your knife. Don't cut your hands. My knives are very sharp."

"Yes, I know." Jiang Ningning responded obediently.

She wanted to cut some meat to make sausages and starch sausages, otherwise, just the casings wouldn't be enough.

There is still a lot of meat on the chopping board, but most of the meat that has been exchanged is fat.

Because farmers think that fat meat is high in oil, and a plate of meat can produce a lot of oil when cooked. That oil can be used to stir-fry one or two dishes, and the dishes stir-fried with lard are very fragrant. Anyway, they think it is cost-effective.

Therefore, if farmers buy meat, they like to buy fat meat. Unless they have spare money, they rarely buy other meats. The same is true now.

It just so happens that Jiang Ningning doesn’t like eating fatty meat, which is perfect.

Besides, meat sausage and starch sausage cannot be made entirely with fat meat. It is best to have a mixture of fat and lean meat. Jiang Ningning cut some pork hind leg meat.

But just as he finished cutting and put down the knife, he was about to carry the coarse earthenware basin containing the pork hind leg meat into the house to put the meat and the sausage casing together, but suddenly he saw his uncle and his family walking in.

Uncle Jiang Changcai looked unhappy and had a very long face.

My aunt-in-law, Mrs. Zhu, followed behind my uncle, looking proud that her husband was here today and she had someone to support her. Her back was straighter than last time, and even her chin was raised much higher than last time.

This time, in addition to Jiang Chuchu and Shen Chunhua, Jiang Daan and Jiang Eran also came.

Jiang Ningning knew that Jiang Changcai and Zhu had four children: the eldest, Jiang Daan, married Shen Chunhua;

The second daughter, Jiang Fangfang, had already married;

The third one is Jiang Er'an. Although he is already eighteen years old, he is idle and lazy. Not only is he unmarried, he is not even engaged.

The fourth one is naturally Jiang Chuchu.

Jiang Changcai walked in and looked around. He didn't see anyone from the Sun family, but he saw Jiang Ningning standing behind the chopping board. He immediately looked like he was accusing someone and said in a stern voice:

"Where's your mother?! Call your mother out! I want to ask her how your family behaves!"

Jiang Changcai was filled with rage. The three taels of betrothal money from his second brother's family was like a thorn in his heart that had not yet been removed. And now, today, ten wild boars were caught in their family's house!

Even if we fought together with the Xiao family and divided half of them, there would still be five heads. Even if we gave three taels of silver to each head, there would still be fifteen taels!

Besides, the wild boar was so strong, it was very likely that it weighed more than three taels each!

Yes, he saw it all.

He didn't come over to watch the wild boars in person, but when his second brother and the Xiao family members pulled the wild boars past his door one by one, he saw it! At that time, his lungs almost exploded!

Plus, everyone in the village was saying that his second brother was going to have a pig-killing dinner at noon, and it was going to be so sumptuous, so plentiful...

Because the last time my second brother's family held their engagement banquet, it was said to be very sumptuous, and today they slaughtered a big pig, so it will definitely be even more sumptuous...

In short, he really had no intention of doing the work in the fields. His mind was all on the fact that his second brother's family had made a fortune by killing a wild boar, so he walked around the house, and when his anger grew bigger and bigger, he finally came over to kill.

Even if I can't eat the pig-killing dish, I must take some meat back!

He's the eldest brother, so what's wrong with taking some meat back from his younger brother's house? It's only natural!

Otherwise, he will never be able to calm down his anger!

His wife, son, daughter-in-law, and daughter all thought the same, so naturally they joined him in killing.

Seeing that her father was angry, and was angry at Jiang Ningning, Jiang Chuchu, who was standing at the back, looked very proud.
