Chapter 7 Pork chops hanging in rows, the smell of meat fills the alley
The east wing of the central courtyard.
Master He worked hard for two hours and finally took care of a wild boar.
He was not very familiar with handling wild boars, which is why it took so long.
At this time, a tripod made of wood appeared at the door of the uncle's house. A piece of wood as thick as a calf was placed in front of the door. One end was placed on the tripod and the other was placed on the woodshed of the house.
At this time, a row of about 20 neatly large pieces of pork were hung on this calf-thick piece of wood. Some beige salt grains and Sichuan peppercorns could also be seen on the bright red pieces of pork.
Yi Chuanzong looked at his trophies with great satisfaction. If he wanted to eat meat, he still had to rely on himself!
"Brother Zhuzi, thank you very much for today. I'll stay here to have dinner together tonight and call your sister over by the way!"
Silly Zhu was washing his hands over there and yelling, "If you didn't tell me, I would have to eat here today. Dealing with this pig feels more tiring than cooking for a day! Don't forget what you promised me!"
Yi Chuanzong smiled slightly, "Isn't it just shopping? It's simple. Let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative together when we have time. The things I pick will definitely be in line with Yuyu's wishes."
Silly Zhu nodded, picked up the towel next to him, wiped his hands, and said, "Although it is autumn now, these pig offal won't last long, so you should eat them quickly in the next three or four days."
Yi Chuanzong grinned, "Don't worry, my aunt has lit the stove. If it doesn't work, I'll stew it all the time. In fact, I can't eat it for long even with my appetite."
Silly Zhu thought about his appetite. A meal weighed more than ten kilograms, which really wouldn't last long.
"These cured bacon can be stored for a long time, but the weather is still a little cold, but it's okay. I've been checking it every day for a week. After it's dried and smoked, it won't go bad."
Yi Chuanzong nodded repeatedly. This pig was the guarantee of his food, so he couldn't let it ruin it!
Although the two of them had not calculated it specifically, the pork slices, which were placed more than two meters horizontally, must weigh more than 250 kilograms!
If you save a little on eating, you can eat it until the Chinese New Year, or even until next spring.
At this time, vegetables only cost a few cents per pound, and Chinese cabbage only cost one to two or three cents. In the winter, we just stocked up on Chinese cabbage, and then we couldn’t spend much money stewed with pork and cabbage.
Moreover, he could still eat happily these two days. The pig offal was marinated, and he was pounding the meat into puree and stuffing some intestines into it.
At this moment, pig offal is still being stewed in the dining room, using the deaf old lady's pot.
"Are you both done?"
Yi Zhonghai walked over from the back. He had not been idle in the past two hours. After buying things from the supply and marketing cooperative, he started delivering meat to people.
If Yi Chuanzong gave it to him, it would be filial piety, but if he gave it to him, it would be a favor, and it would also consolidate his position as the first master.
They sent over a pound of meat from door to door, mostly fat. With so much meat in their house, they were no longer hungry for oil and water. If they wanted to buy meat to eat, lean meat was actually more expensive.
Every time he went to a house, Yi Zhonghai had to sit down and chat. He drank a lot of tea in the past two hours.
"Yes, Brother Zhuzhu has already marinated it, and we are just waiting for it to dry on the surface before smoking it."
Yi Chuanzong was still admiring his trophies. He had obtained them all with his own skill!
In this time of scarce resources, so much meat can make other people's eyes pop out. He will start to become well-off in the future! He should eat openly!
"Uncle, do you think it's safe to put this meat here? If no one cares about a pound and a half of meat, and there is so much meat here, do you think I should hang it on the roof?" Gu Lou
The more he looked at it, the more worried Yi Chuanzong began to feel. It was as if it was worth more than 200 yuan left outside. Most people don't have much food left at home, let alone meat.
.
Don't be afraid of thieves stealing, just be afraid of thieves thinking about you.
There is no surveillance at this time. If there is a thief, it is basically impossible to catch it. You can't keep watch here day and night, right?
Yi Zhonghai also fell silent after hearing this, not to mention whether people outside would come if they saw it, putting so much meat here would seduce people to commit crimes, and the people in his own yard might not be able to be restrained.
"As long as it's ventilated, it'll be fine. If not, just put it on the roof for a few days. Once it's smoked, put it inside the house and it'll be fine."
Silly Zhu usually works in the factory cafeteria, and people steal everything owned by the government, let alone this person's belongings.
"If it doesn't work, just put it on the roof. I'll tell everyone tomorrow that the yard will be closed during the night these days. When the meat is ready, I won't worry about it and put it in the house."
Yi Zhonghai also agreed. It's okay to keep watching here all the time. If someone from outside comes to steal, it's okay. He can just notify the police station to deal with it.
If you are someone in your own yard, it will make everyone’s faces look bad.
"I'll just use wood to make a shelf on the roof. I'll just cut it down and tie it up."
After Yi Chuanzong said that, he started to take action. It took a lot of effort to kill a wild boar from the mountain. It was a tiger, a leopard, and an enemy. If the courtyard was still stolen after coming here, it would be unreasonable.
Take precautions in advance and don’t test people’s hearts with huge amounts of wealth when others are having such a hard time.
The pork offal is braised in the small vat. This time, the ingredients are very complete. The meaty aroma spreads out directly. There is no chimney in this small porcelain vat. The smell coming out of the vat is like an atomic bomb.
The first man's house is in the middle courtyard. The distance between the front yard and the backyard is only about fifty meters. Even the alley is full of meat, let alone the courtyard.
"Dad, can you give me a bite of meat too?"
Watching the second uncle drinking wine and eating wild boar and stir-fried cauliflower, Liu Guangtian couldn't help but was so greedy that his tears started to flow.
Moreover, his eldest brother Liu Guangqi could also eat some meat, but he and his younger brother Liu Guangfu could not. This made him feel unbalanced. In addition, the meat was too fragrant, so he dared to ask.
Liu Guangfu also watched eagerly. He saw today that the uncle brought more than a pound of wild boar meat to his family, and half of it was fat. He also wanted to take a bite.
But he was beaten just a few days ago because of study problems, and now his flesh is still sore and he dare not ask.
"Eat meat?"
After a light drink, the second uncle sitting at the square table immediately raised his head and said sarcastically: "Are you worthy of eating meat?"
The second uncle pointed at Liu Guangtian's face at the dining table in front of him with his chopsticks, "Your eldest brother's academic performance is so good that I have a good reputation. He has to be a clerk and eat public food. He can eat meat."
"You two are useless, don't you think about your own virtues? One of you doesn't study well in school and makes trouble, and asks the teacher to look for me when you see the sky. The other one is working as a weakling at the station and you can make mistakes, and you still eat meat! Bah!
!”
Liu Guangfu was immediately sprayed in the face. He pulled his hips and shrank his neck out of habit. He could only turn around timidly before he dared to reach out and touch his face.
He glanced at his elder brother's bowl of rice with envy, then lowered his head with resentment in his eyes and picked up the wowotou and took a bite.
He only dared to show this look when he lowered his head when the second uncle couldn't see him. If the second uncle saw him and had to whip him with a belt, he would be hungry for several days.
At the dining table, Liu Guangqi and the second aunt ate the rice in silence in silence. At this time, the father ate first, and the mother and eldest son usually had some. As for the remaining two younger sons, they could only envy them.
