Although this job seems simple, it is nothing more than pouring hot water and shaving, but it is very strenuous, squatting on the pot table, the heat is steaming, and the clothes on the body are not clear whether they are sweat or moisture.
When Li Xuewu came back, he followed his brothers and turned the pig over again, belly up, and continued to scrape the belly.
It was now almost seven o'clock, and Li Xuewu had already prepared for lunch. He was already a little hungry, so he picked up the iron box biscuits handed over by Zhao Yafang and started eating.
This biscuit must have been bought when they got married. The two of them couldn't bear to eat it, so they kept it. Today, the sister-in-law didn't feel bad anymore and took the initiative to bring it out to her brother-in-law.
I ate two pieces to resist my hunger, drank another cup of hot water, put the round lid back on, and sent it back to the south room.
This is my sister-in-law’s snack. I use it when I’m hungry when I’m reading at night. I can’t eat it shamelessly.
Zhao Yafang saw Li Xuewu sending biscuits back and said hurriedly: "Xuewu, just eat when you are hungry. It will take a while before the meal is ready."
Li Xuewu smiled at Zhao Yafang and said: "I'm not hungry anymore. The biscuits are too sweet and I'm very hungry."
Liu Yin looked at her daughter-in-law and said nothing. She was making noodles and preparing steamed buns. She wanted to leave Si Zhu here to eat today.
Everyone in the courtyard had finished their dinner, and many young people walked to the front yard and looked in through the window next to the pot in Li's house.
Brothers Liu Guangtian, Liu Guangfu, Yan Jiecheng, Yan Jiefang, Yan Jiekuang, and some other boys who were older than Banggeng stood crowded in the front yard.
While they were talking, Li Xuewu and Li Xuecai moved the Eight Immortals table for dining towards the north room, and to make room, they moved the Eight Immortals table under the bill to face the dining table to form a long table.
The Li brothers followed their eldest grandma to the stable to find some wooden boards and carried them back to the house. They spread them on the table and nailed them side by side with two horizontal bars to make wooden rafts.
This is because knives and axes will be used when cutting meat, and the tabletop will be scratched when cutting meat.
By the time Grandma and her brothers finished their work, Shazhu had already shaved the big wild boar.
Several men from the Li family worked together to lift the white-striped pig onto the prepared long case.
Now the "Brother Pig" has taken off his coat and appeared cleanly in front of everyone.
While shaving, Liu Yin had already put away several buckets of muddy water. She took out half a pot of mud and pig hair and brushed it several times before it was clean.
The pig hair was packed in a sack and thrown in the corner of the room, ready to be washed out and sold when the time came.
Sha Zhu was sweating all over from doing this, and now he had to take a break from talking. Under the guidance of his eldest grandma, Li Xue offered Sha Zhu a cigarette and lit the fire.
Silly Zhu took a sip and said to Li Xue with a smile: "Thank you, sister, are you in your second year of high school?"
Li Xue usually chatted and had fun with her classmates at school, but she said little at home, and she didn't have much contact with the people in the courtyard because of Liu Yin's management. When Silly Zhu asked, he just nodded and said
I said: "Yeah" and walked back to sit next to grandma.
Silly Zhu didn't care either. He knew that the Li family had a strict upbringing, and the girls were raised like young ladies in the old days. The sons were either scholars or doctors. Even if there was Li Laoer, he looked like a local bully and was recruited as a soldier after graduating from high school.
Otherwise, he is still a college student.
Li Xuewu: "Brother Zhuzhu, don't worry, my sister is petty"
Li Xuewu explained to Silly Zhu with a smile, and then said to his younger sister Li Xue: "Li Xue, when you see Brother Zhuzi in the future, take the initiative to say hello. Don't be rude."
Li Xuewu couldn't bear to see his sister being said by the onlookers outside that she didn't have the courtesy of a tutor, let alone the silly Zhu who came to help. Although Li Xue was not close to him, he had to take care of his sister.
Silly Zhu: "Hey, it's all like this. When the girl was young, she was chattering like a boy. When she got older, she learned to pay attention. My sister Yuyu is like this too."
At this time, Liu Yin took over: "Has Yuyu's marriage been decided? Last time I heard my aunt say that she was talking to a film police officer?"
Silly Zhu finished smoking a cigarette, picked up the invasion knife and answered as he walked: "I haven't believed it yet. I am also busy at work. My sister has a good idea, so I don't need to worry about it."
Everyone who lives in the same courtyard knows what the situation is like in the Shazhu family. This Shazhu is very carefree. He started raising his sister when he was a child. How can he take good care of his sister?
He Yuyu is also self-reliant. He goes to school by himself, works by himself, and finds a partner by himself. Even if he is starving to death, he is pretty good at finding a partner. At least he has a decent job.
He Yuyu is very good-looking, tall and tall enough. Although he looks thin and unlucky now, he is still an Internet celebrity in the future. In the past, the aunt wanted to tell Li Xuewen.
Li Xuewu knew about this, but refused because Liu Yin disagreed, and because Liu Yin felt that He Yuyu's family was not very good, and was afraid that Yuyu would be paranoid after getting married, so she refused.
But they didn't tell anyone, neither Shazhu nor Yuyu knew, and even Li Xuewen didn't know. Li Xuewu went shopping outside and came back to catch up with what he heard.
Li Xuewu watched Liu Yin chatting with Shazhu and secretly glanced at his sister-in-law. Compared with He Yuyu in the TV series, her sister-in-law looks worse, but her temperament is better.
Maybe it’s what the book says: “There is poetry and calligraphy in one’s belly.”
But there is a saying that goes like this: A road will tell you a horse's power, a test will tell you a person's heart, and the days are still long, so take your time.
If He Yuyu marries in, Shazhu would be willing, and Yuyu might be willing too.
Although the Li family is not rich because of its large population and the need for students to study, they all know that studying is still useful in these days, and rainwater is the job assigned to high school graduates.
Just as Silly Zhu was about to take the knife, he heard Yan Jiefang shout outside the window: "Silly Zhu, be careful, don't cut off your fingers!"
Silly Zhu raised his head and cursed: "Get out! If you yell again, I'll kill you."
Liu Guangtian opened the window and asked: "Silly Zhu, how many pounds can this pig weigh?"
Yan Jiefang also asked: "Si Zhu, is wild boar meat delicious?"
Liu Guangfu glanced at Yan Jiefang: "Nonsense, can the meat not be delicious?"
Yan Jiefang: "Hey! Little bastard, who are you talking nonsense about?"
There was a lot of noise outside the window, everyone was arguing about the pigs. Silly Zhu was so angry that he called himself Zhuzi or Brother Zhuzi in the Li family, but when the kids outside called him "Silly Zhu".
"Get the hell out of here, noisy, go stay somewhere cool!"
Yan Jiefang turned to Silly Zhu and said: "This is not your home, and the pigs are not your home. What are you doing with the big cloves of garlic!"
Liu Guangtian: "That's right"
The angry Sha Zhu opened the door with a knife and walked out. The gang of boys dispersed in fright, but they didn't run far. They laughed and scolded Sha Zhu. When Sha Zhu returned to the house, they all gathered around him from a distance.
Take a look.
Silly Zhu chased away the source of the noise, holding a knife and untied four pig trotters and a pig tail.
Silly Zhu took the pig tail and said to Li Xuewu: "Xuewu, give me the pig tail later, I will take it back to drink."
