Chen Tong also understood that although they had pulled down the wild boar, it was the third sister who shot it.
I was a little anxious. If the third sister wanted all of them, it would be troublesome and she wouldn't be able to eat pork.
Then I thought, the third sister is not that kind of person, and she will definitely not want to take it all by herself. Besides, the eldest brother and the others will not agree. It is okay to give the third sister a big share, and they will be indispensable when the time comes.
Liang Caixia entered the third daughter's yard. Her two grandsons were playing in the yard and watched obediently as they watched the people coming in.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?"
"Hmm. What are you going to do about the wild boar?"
"separated."
"Why don't you let your father take you to the town and sell you?"
Chen Miao shook his head, "I'm not going. I'll share the food with several families. It's too dangerous to go to town."
"I heard from Chen Tong that it's not small and can be exchanged for a lot of money."
"Mom, if it weren't for my eldest brother, I wouldn't be able to pull them down. Let's divide it. If you are willing to sell it, you can sell it."
"That's okay. Let's divide it into five parts." Liang Caixia could tell that the third daughter didn't want to argue with her family.
"It's good to be able to sell it for money. Let's come back and discuss whether to sell it whole or separately.
If you want to sell it for a good price, you still have to go to town."
"Mom, isn't it safe in this town? With the current situation, I guess no one is buying too much meat. If the price is too low, I might as well eat it. I've been working for a year."
Liang Caixia hummed and picked up her two grandsons. She just held them for a while and put them down. She had given birth to nine children of her own and it could be said that she was not close to the children at all.
This means that Yun Xin and the others are really cute and fat, so they hugged each other and got close to each other.
There were only three of them, mother and son, left at home. Chen Miao took out two small footballs. Of course the two little ones liked them. She hurriedly fed the animals while the children were not chasing her.
There are still a lot of radishes and mustard greens this year, and they are still pickled. Next time Comrade Li comes over, let them bring some more. There is not much that can be done, but I still try to do something, so that I feel comfortable.
Listening to the laughter of the two children, she also had a smile on her face.
In the evening, the mother and the child had corn porridge, and the children could also eat some.
After washing, mother and son were already lying down when they heard a knock on the door. "You two, lie down obediently and don't come out of bed."
It was Chen Dou who came, "Third Sister, Mom asked you to come over and discuss what to do."
"I'm not going. Whatever you want is fine. If you want to sell it, that's fine." I already told my mother that the price is too low and there's no need. This mother is a powerful person and she will definitely be able to figure it out.
Chen Dou came back and told what her third sister had said. Liang Caixia nodded, "What do you think we should do? Otherwise, kill the pig and divide the meat. You decide whether you want to eat or sell the meat. But you must be careful when going to town.
Don’t worry, it’s better to be careful.”
The three brothers nodded. Chen Tong was willing to kill the pig, but he was unwilling to sell the meat. He had not eaten meat for a long time and almost forgot what it tasted like.
"Dad, shall we kill the pig now?"
"It's convenient to kill pigs at night. Lao Wu, you can light the fire." Chen Dongsheng is a carpenter, but he also knows how to kill pigs.
In the past, the pigs raised at home were all killed by him. It was free of charge, so it was better to hide the pigs behind others and kill them by yourself.
Now that the decision was made to kill the pig, the whole family took action. The three separated sons were all present, and they wanted to watch at such a happy and exciting moment.
The children have seen pigs being killed before, but despite the recent years of unrest and the family does not raise pigs, they only buy one or two kilograms of meat every Chinese New Year. Looking at the two big lumps on the ground, how much meat is this?
Women boil water, and when shaving pig hair, they need to be scalded with hot water before they can be scraped off.
The three men did hard work, and Chen Dongsheng sharpened the knife. The knife must be sharp. The wild boar's skin is thick, otherwise it might not be able to penetrate.
Liang Caixia asked her three daughters-in-law to cook. There were so many people. Besides, her sons still came down from the mountain and had not eaten for a day.
It's not a good job to have three daughters-in-law wash pigs into the water after the rice is cooked. But they don't dislike it. As long as there are good things, what's the point of just doing some work?
It was already four hours after the two pigs were tidied up, and now the family sat down to eat.
"We will weigh out the meat later and divide it into five parts." Liang Caixia said to the man.
"Give Chen Miao more." Chen Dongsheng said.
Liang Caixia shook her head, "No, just the mother and her son can't eat that much."
The three daughters-in-law were relieved. They didn't want to divide it into five parts. But it was not okay not to divide it. Although the wild boar was killed by the sister-in-law, it was still pulled down by them. If she couldn't get it off by herself.
It was already midnight, so we had to divide them out quickly. The net amount of pork was 362 kilograms, which is a little more than 72 kilograms for one family. What was left for Chen Miao was the ribs and hind legs.
The wild boar in this season is also quite fat. The Chen family is very satisfied. Chen Xiaoyan was so excited that she was not tired. "Ming also asked my third aunt to go up with him to have a look. There are many good things on the mountain. Today I didn't pick mountain reds and wild jujubes."
Her words entered the hearts of the three sisters-in-law. Who would dislike having too many things? Although we are used to living a hard life, who doesn't want to live a good life?
Everyone in the Chen family didn't say anything. In fact, they all had this idea. They used to think about going up by themselves. What happened this time made them know that things were not that simple. If Chen Miao hadn't been here this time, they probably wouldn't have done it.
It's good. I don't want to get hurt. If I'm unlucky, I might lose my life.
The pig's offal was also divided, but the pig's head was given to the old couple. There was really no way to divide it. They took more of the other offal.
As the old couple lay on the kang, Liang Caixia asked, "Master, there is so much meat. If we don't go to the county town, how about selling it in the village?"
After a while, Chen Dongsheng said, "If we don't sell it anymore, people will definitely ask where the meat comes from, and they will definitely know it is wild boar meat after eating it. It's okay if someone goes up the mountain and is fine, but I'm afraid something will happen, and it's hard to tell when the time comes."
"We didn't ask you to go up the mountain. What's there to say? Forget it, the third girl is right. We've been tired for a year. Let's eat it at home. I'll pickle some tomorrow and serve the pig's head."
I got up early the next day and said, "Fourth sister, let's go deliver meat to the third sister?"
Liang Caixia also said that she would send him there and come back for dinner.
Chen Miao was lighting a fire. It was still quite cold in the morning and evening, so she needed to give hot water to the animals. Today was a big market, and she wanted to sell a donkey. She also wanted to inquire about the price. She would suffer a loss by selling such a working animal in this season.
.We all know that it is not cost-effective to wait for several months after buying it.
You still have to look at the price. She will sell it for how much it cost when she bought it.
Chen Tong looked at the cart coming in, "Third sister, I will give you meat, seventy-two pounds per family. Mother will leave you a piece of liver and lungs."
"Well, give me the meat. Take the lungs and liver back and let mom feed dad to eat."
