Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982 Chapter 619

   "That's right, I can't eat it up after fishing it up, and I can't sell it even if I sell it. My mother gave it away everywhere, and there is still a small half of the tank left." Lin Xiuqing took his hand and wanted to go back.

  But Ye Yaodong stopped as soon as he turned around.

"No, isn't our shop planning to open after the Chinese New Year? At that time, we can also send fish sauce to the shop for sale. People in other places don't eat fish sauce, so people in this city also eat fish sauce. ?”

"When the time comes to search and collect, if you don't want it, if you can't finish it, throw it in the store and sell it. We don't think it's rare here. No one wants it. Maybe someone likes it in the market. The local products in the country are not produced in the city. , the transportation is underdeveloped, and there is also a lack of circulation.”

  Lin Xiuqing thought about it, and felt that it made sense. Dried fish is not rare in their countryside, but it is quite popular in the city.

  They eat fish sauce locally, seasoned to make it fresher, and you can sell as much as you can in the city. It's better than a tank full of it at home. Relatives and friends have already given it to relatives and friends.

   "Then let's catch fish here? Are you going to the old house?"

Ye Yaodong took a flashlight to shine on the surface of the water again, "Who can wait here, the cold wind blows and freezes to death, let's take a look. I'll take a photo, these fish have phototaxis, if the flashlight shines on the water, if there are these fishes underneath If the fish are small, they will boil and jump on the surface of the sea by themselves."

   "I caught it like this last year. If it didn't jump up, it might be another fish. The tide is high there, and it's not easy to go into the water to catch it in cold weather."

  Lin Xiuqing pushed him, "Then let me take a look here, why don't you go to your hometown first?"

  Ye Yaodong watched her shrunk her neck, the cold wind kept pouring into her neck, and still looked up at him, he stroked the back of her head with a smile and kissed her, then hooked her neck and walked back.

"Forget it, you'd better go back to the house. It's so cold outside, you haven't put on your clothes, and you haven't tied your scarf. You're huddled like a quail. What are you doing outside? It's nothing to do with you. Go back and wrap yourself in the quilt. I'll take a look when I come back from my hometown, anyway, the tide is still rising there, and the tide doesn't ebb so quickly."

Lin Xiuqing was held in his arms, smiling sweetly, "It's okay, I'm not cold, if there are fish jumping on the sea, I can catch some back, let's make more fish sauce, and we can sell some money. Just looking at it just now, it seems that there is no movement?"

It cost 13,000 yuan to book a big boat. Although I only paid 5,000 yuan as a deposit, the final payment was several thousand more. Even if I took out all the money at home, it was not enough to pay the final payment. She felt good after thinking about it. There is a sense of urgency and an urgent desire to make money.

  Although she knows that she has no skills and can't make a lot of money, no matter how small a mosquito's legs are, it's still meat.

   "Well, it may be other fish, so it didn't show up, it's just under the water, it doesn't matter if it doesn't show up, don't catch a cold, you go back to the house, I'll go to the old house to have a look."

  Lin Xiuqing smiled, and nodded meekly in his arms, "Okay, come back early, and I can sleep back in the cage."

"Um."

  The two of them paced towards their small nest, with their backs facing the sea, and they didn't see the ripples of the sea not far away, and the ripples bloomed circle after circle.

  After Ye Yaodong sent Lin Xiuqing home, he heard the sound of her locking the courtyard door before heading to the old house in peace.

Lin Xiuqing stood on tiptoe in the yard and looked out of the wall. She saw the faint light of the flashlight flickering, shining farther and farther away. Go, continue to lie down again, and sleep back in the cage.

  It was only past two o'clock in the morning, and the village was quiet, and the cold wind was blowing, especially when walking to various intersections or open spaces without houses.

  Ye Yaodong shrank his hand holding the flashlight into his sleeve. He wore a hat on his head and a scarf around his neck, so his hands were exposed outside, and it was a bit cold.

As soon as he walked to the gate of the old house, he heard the noisy voices from the back door, and the screaming of pigs, and as he got closer, there was also the sound of knives scratching on the whetstone .

   When he walked to the back door, a pig killing scene appeared in front of him.

A big fat pig was tied to a wooden stick, unable to struggle or move at all, and was placed on a wide wooden frame, howling harshly, while several men in black cotton clothes and rain boots Standing next to the wooden frame is his father, his eldest brother and his second brother.

  His mother and second sister-in-law boiled water beside them, and a large iron pot was set up in the open space.

  The butcher held a long knife and kept swipe it back and forth on the whetstone beside him, and picked it up from time to time to have a look. The sharp knife flashed under the faint light.

   "It's so late? Fortunately, I didn't expect you to help." After Ye Mu underestimated, she looked away from him.

   "It's delayed by something, it's not too late, anyway, the killing hasn't started yet. Isn't it easy to catch a pig and tie it up with so many of you?"

  Mother Ye pursed her lips, glanced at him, and didn't say anything about him.

  Second Brother Ye smiled and said, "It's okay, there are enough people, and there is no need to do anything else. You should go back and sleep again?"

   "It's all here, I'm here to take a look, I haven't seen how the pig is killed yet? After the slaughter is finished, I will buy some fresh meat and pig offal by the way."

  Ye Yaodong said while walking back and forth along the wooden frame, watching the big fat pig struggling non-stop, and let out a howling sound of 噫噫噫, "By the way, has this pig been weighed? How much is it?"

   "Weighed it, it was weighed just now, and it weighed 208 catties."

"The raising is pretty good. After the spring, I can catch a few more piglets and raise a few more. Anyway, the second sister-in-law is also idle. She feeds some pig grass every day, and can earn more income a year. "

  People don't eat very well these days, not to mention pigs, a 200-jin pig is already a big fat pig.

  Sister-in-law Ye also smiled and said, "That's what I thought. After the spring, I will catch more piglets. I heard people say that the pig farmers have made a fortune in the past two years."

   While they were talking, the butcher also stopped sharpening the knife, wiped the blade with a rag, and scraped it with his thumb, feeling that it was sharp enough.

   "I'm starting."

   "Okay, let's start, let's start killing pigs."

  Mother Ye kicked the big flowered washbasin on the ground, pointed it towards the pig's head, and waited to receive the pig's blood.

  Pork blood is also a delicious dish when it is ready.

  The butcher stabbed the pig's neck with a sharp knife. The big fat pig let out a heart-piercing scream and struggled in horror and terror, but the rope was tightly tied and it was obviously impossible to escape.

  Blood gushed out in an instant, flowing continuously along the pig's neck, dyeing the whole pig's head vividly red, and the bright red blood also flowed to the washbasin on the ground at the same time.

  In an instant, the air was filled with the smell of blood. A big hole was exposed on the pig's neck, and a steady stream of pig blood was still dripping down. The bound limbs were still twitching there.

  After waiting for a while, they lifted the pig to the iron pot, turned it back and forth, scalded it with boiling water, and removed the hair.

  After finishing the work, the butcher opened the pig's belly again. The sharp knife was like cutting the opening of a sack, and it broke open with one stroke.

  The squeezed internal organs were still warm when taken out.

   "Second brother and second sister-in-law, do you want pig offal?"

   "If you want it? If you want it, I will give it to you."

  Second Sister-in-Law Ye quickly patted Ye Yaohua, glared at him, and said: "Pork belly and pork loin are not good, we have to keep the pork belly to stew chicken, and the pork loin is for your second brother to make up for, and I can give you the rest."

   "Sell me the pig's heart and liver later. I'll ask other people to buy pork belly and pork loin when it's dawn."

  Brother Ye smiled and said, "Sell me the pig's lungs and intestines."

   "Talk to Butcher Zhang after he finishes killing, and just ask him to buy it."

  Mother Ye pointed to the pig's blood that was still ticking in the washbasin and said, "Do you want to keep the pig's blood? You can have a washbasin if you cook it, and you can eat it for two days if you share it and stir-fry cabbage."

  Ye Yaodong shrugged, "I can."

  He doesn't think there are too many. It will be difficult to eat this kind of home-raised pigs in the future, and it's cold now, so they can't be kept if they can't finish them.

   "Then stay here, I will take it back to the house and cook a pot later, and I will share it with you when it solidifies..."

   Second sister-in-law Ye is the happiest. She has been raising pigs for half a year, and can eat meat and earn money. She is more determined to catch two more pigs to raise after the spring.

  The whole family was talking about it, and the butcher quickly cleaned out all the internal organs in the pig's belly, threw them into a large wooden basin beside him, and chopped off the pig's head and put it in a piece.

   "The offal will be divided among you, and I won't take it away. Do you want to keep any piece of meat?"

"want."

  Ye Yaodong quickly told him all the parts and jin he wanted.

  The butcher cut the pig neatly, cutting off all the parts he wanted.

  Ye Yaohua also followed up and said the part and quantity he wanted.

  The whole family keeps a little bit for each person, and divides up 1/4 of the pigs.

  Ye Yaodong bought the most, and spent all the 20 yuan he brought out before walking back with a bucket full of pork.

  The butcher carried the remaining pork onto his cart, ready to rush to the next family to continue slaughtering. As the end of the new year was approaching, there were a lot of people slaughtering pigs these days, so he wanted to rush to the market before dawn.

   At this time, the sky was still pitch black. It took him a total of two hours from the time he came to see the butchering to the cutting. In this winter, it took six o'clock to dawn.

  The three brothers talked and laughed as they walked.

  Ye Yaopeng said that he would catch two or three piglets to raise after the beginning of spring. Just now Ye Yaohua sold a piglet for 180 yuan, which stimulated him a bit.

  If you raise three heads, you can add five or six hundred yuan a year.

   It's no wonder that last year, pig farmers could raise a household worth ten thousand yuan. Unfortunately, they have neither the conditions nor the time, otherwise they would have raised a few more pigs.

   "Dongzi, do you want to raise it?"

   "Don't raise it! It's too dirty and smelly, and Ah Qing doesn't have time to take care of the children. The elder sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law are relatively free, so you can just raise them."

  A pig earns 180 yuan. He really doesn't like it now. Raising pigs is not an easy job. There is no need to make his wife so tired. Anyway, he can make money.

  In her previous life, she raised him, and in this life, he will raise her.
