Chapter 531 Killing pigs and holding banquets
Liang Tongsheng actually wanted Liang Xiaonan to marry from Dakeng Village. This is their daughter from Dakeng Village.
You Guoqing, Xiao Tiezhu, and Liang Tongsheng went to find Liang Xiaonan in the yard of Nanfeng Town together, and said, "We have made arrangements at home, son, why don't you marry from Dakeng Village!"
Liang Xiaonan is very grateful, but she really doesn't want to go back to Liang's old house.
"Thank you Mayor You, thank you Grandpa Liang and Uncle Xiao, I won't get on the sedan chair from Dakeng anymore."
You Guoqing said anxiously: "Xiaonan, you have to do the wedding ceremony!"
"The two of us have already held a ceremony in the Zhou Family Ancestral Hall in Modu, so Yu County will only hold banquets to entertain relatives and friends here, and no ceremony will be held."
In other words, she is already Zhou's wife, and there is no reason to hold two weddings.
The banquet was purely for gratitude. After all, Zhou Yan grew up in Nanfeng Town, and Liang Xiaonan also needed a banquet to announce that she was already Zhou's wife.
Leung's old house, leave it to Grandma Liang to dream!
I don’t want to comment on how the Spring Festival was. Anyway, Liang Xiaonan and Zhou Yan’s wedding brought the excitement of the two towns to its peak.
On the twenty-seventh day of the first lunar month, the children of Dakeng Village screamed and ran to the usual meeting place in the village.
"The pig was killed!"
"Look at the slaughter of pigs."
"I want a pig's trotter to light the oil lamp."
"I want a pig urine foam to kick the ball..."
They ran to the meeting room and saw four or five adults chasing a big fat pig. The pig howled and resisted, but it couldn't screw so many men.
The pig was overturned, its limbs were bound, and it was lifted onto a large platform. A basin for blood was placed under the pig's head.
The children were timid and covered their ears from a distance to watch.
Liang Cuixia is already 8 years old. Originally, her mother detained her at home to learn needlework, but she still sneaked out to watch the slaughter of pigs.
Only hearing the howling of the pig, Yuan Jin, the pig butcher in the village, stabbed the pig's neck cleanly with a sharp knife in his hand, blood poured into the basin, and the pig howled weakly.
Not long after, he stopped barking and died.
A large pot with a diameter of 2 meters was set up on the field, and the steaming water was boiled and poured into the pot.
Yuan Jin shouted: "Add 2 scoops of cold water inside, in case the water is too hot and burns the hairy eyes, and it will be difficult to pull out the hair after burning."
Someone took a ladle and added cold water, and everyone lifted the pig into the pot to boil it. Yuan Jin held a shaving knife in his hand and began to shave the pig hair "eat, eat, eat".
The children all watched around. Yuan Jin cleaned up the internal organs of the pig, cleaned up the limbs, and cleaned the pig.
Every time a pig’s trotter clip was thrown out, the children screamed and snapped it up. Liang Cuixia also grabbed a pig’s trotter clip and stood there refusing to leave. She wanted to grab some suet.
The pig butchers actually knew the children’s intentions, and deliberately threw some leftover pig suet not far from the cauldron, watching the children happily grab it.
Pig intestines, pork belly, pig liver and lungs, Yuan Jin kept it for himself. This is the rule, and all pig offal is left to the butcher as a reward.
He threw out the pig urine bag casually, and immediately a boy snatched it up. He inserted a reed tube into it and blew it until it was as big as a balloon.
The whole village, and those who came to visit relatives in Dakeng Village, were not in the mood to work today, so they gathered around here to watch the slaughter of pigs.
Someone said: "It would be great if pigs were killed years ago. Killing pigs in the year will make the year fatter."
Yuan Jin glanced at him and said, "Did you have pigs before?"
Yeah, are there pigs?
The few pigs raised in Dakeng Village were all sold for money. Who would be willing to kill pigs for meat.
If Liang Xiaonan hadn’t held a banquet and given it to this pig in the village, no one would have thought that Yuan Jin was still a pig butcher, would a pig butcher who didn’t kill a pig still be a pig butcher?
The children happily showed off their gains to each other. Liang Cuixia looked at the pig's trotter clip and suet with satisfaction, and said, "I will be as good as sister Xiaonan in the future. Not only can I kill pigs for the village, but I can also kill pigs for the village." Acting in movies, listening to big plays."
Zhou Yan paid the money, and the two towns invited theater troupes and film screening teams from the county. The big play was going to be sung for half a month, and the movie was also played for half a month.
Of course, operas and movie repertoires have been signed and approved by the leaders of the county and the city. Everyone can watch it without causing trouble.
In the era without televisions, computers, and mobile phones, how popular are movies and dramas? That would be considered a big festival!
The banquet in Xiaoyun Town is held in Dakeng Village. It is in the meeting square in the middle of the village. There is a large canteen in the village. The best cooks in the town come. Everyone is not even for a bite, but It is to live up to the ingredients.
The chefs are more of a kind of expectation and pride for their own craftsmanship, and they all show their ability to press the bottom of the box.
This banquet can be said to be unprecedented, because no one has ever had such a wealthy person, and the people of Dakeng Village have never had such a good meal.
Chicken, duck, fish, eggs, milk, vegetables, as long as you can think of it! Live, fresh, top-quality rice and white noodles, and even the oil is peanut oil, a big barrel of which is particularly craving.
Before the banquet, those who have daughters invite their daughters and sons-in-law to stay at their natal home for a few days, and those who have relatives also use the excuse to visit relatives in Dakeng Village.
Xiao Hongyu is already pregnant. She received the certificate on August 15 last year. She held a banquet in early October and is now 6 months pregnant.
Liang Xiaonan got married. Originally, she wanted to accompany eight-year-old Mao to help in Nanfeng Town, but there was Ergouzi and their gang in Nanfeng Town to help, and no one dared to steal or take it. Dakeng Village is not good, and Liang Xiaonan has no relatives, so she has to keep an eye on it.
Even if Liang Xiaonan and Zhou Yan are polite and let everything be arranged by the village, she still feels that some people really don't have such a shame to eat for nothing.
If you want to come and eat, you can get a portion of the money!
Ms. Zhao scolded her: "Xiaonan doesn't even care, what are you doing so tight?"
Xiao Hongyu said: "She doesn't care about me. How can she have so much energy to take care of her as a bride?"
"But you are heavy, why are you worrying about it?"
"It doesn't matter if my body is heavy and it doesn't prevent me from doing accounts and collecting money!"
There was only one meal at the banquet in Dakeng Village, but from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., the dishes continued to be served for two hours. At the beginning, the dishes were served in seconds CD, in the end, even if you support the wall, you can't eat it anymore.
Xiao Tiezhu sent two fools to close the dishes. Whenever there was no more food for a table, all the dishes were poured into a big iron pot, regardless of hot or cold.
After putting away the stove in the afternoon, Xiao Tiezhu asked the strong laborers in the village to pull the ox carts in the village, put the big iron pots on them, and went door to door, impartially. Each family had a basin of mixed vegetables and 10 white flour steamed buns.
No matter which family is happy, especially those who are separated, the old and the young belong to two families and can be divided into two large pots.
It's still cold now, and it won't go bad after a day or two, so everyone is reluctant to eat it. Some filial families put these mixed vegetables in enamel jars and gave them to their natal families, seven aunts and eight aunts. On a porcelain jar.
The cart pulled up to Grandma Liang's door, Xiao Tiezhu brought a pot of vegetables into the yard, and knocked on the door of the main room again: "Aunt Liang, the vegetables are divided."
Grandma Liang had heard excited shouts outside. She was annoyed and lay down on the bed and pretended to be dead. Mrs. Zhao pulled her over at the dinner in the morning. She ate, but she was in a bad mood.
Xiao Tiezhu poured a pot of vegetables into her basin and placed it on the small square table.
"Aunt Liang, the vegetables and steamed buns are on the table!"
He continued to deliver food to the next family.
Xiao Tiezhu didn't comfort her anymore, what kind of feelings could he have for Grandma Liang? There are so many old men and women in the village, does he treat them as his own mother and father?
Besides, this old lady is pulling her arms more and more, without Liang Xiaonan, who will spoil her!
