C139 (2/2)
The old sow seemed to know what her next fate would be. She actually began to fight her way through the pen, trying to escape from the prison. However, all of this was in vain. In the end, the butcher's blade still swung towards it.
With the three of them, plus the Gauze Palace, the four of them subdued the pig and tied up its legs with ropes. The pig continued to howl with all its might, as if it was saying goodbye to its babies in tears …
”Boss, hurry up and do it. Let's knock it out first. Second Old Wife, quick, place the wooden basin at the bottom of your body, prepare to receive the pig's blood. ”
Old Master Tian skillfully arranged jobs for everyone while the little fellow hid by the side, watching from afar as they slaughtered pigs. Tian Yuqiao naturally did not have much interest in this kind of scene. She did not like such a bloody scene. He hid in the house by himself, planning to wait until the pig died before going out.
After about a quarter of an hour, the pig's screams became weaker and weaker. In the end, not a single sound could be heard.
Outside, on the bench, the pig was dead, bleeding half a basin. At this moment, its belly had already been cut open. The pig had been poured into another large wooden basin.
Now, Tian Chanzi had also washed his hands clean and told his eldest brother and third elder brother to separate the meat.
”Divide the meat evenly, otherwise, when the time comes to divide the meat among your families, you can talk about your mother and me being biased.” Madame Li instructed.
When everyone heard this, they realized that this winter, the meat would be distributed equally among the different rooms. All of a sudden, all of them felt motivated. The speed of their work had also increased by quite a bit. Everyone was brimming with brilliant smiles.
Lady Wang naturally didn't dare to hope that Lady Li would also give her a portion. Moreover, their family didn't lack meat. She was even a bit worried, afraid that she wouldn't be able to finish all of the meat …
After taking apart some of the bones, Madame Li asked Madame Gao and Madame Jiang to go to the vegetable cellar to fetch some radishes to prepare the radish soup.
Lady Wang, on the other hand, still picked up the dirtiest job, which was cleaning the internal organs of pigs.
At the bottom of the year, the wind was blowing and it was like a small knife was scraping against one's face. Lady Wang's hands quickly turned red from the cold. She didn't even dare to go up to the stove to scoop up hot water.
Tian Yuqiao hurried to the kitchen as the ladle scooped up some hot water. Ignoring Madame Li's terrifying gaze, Tian Yuqiao directly poured the ladle of hot water into the large wooden basin in front of Lady Wang.
”Mother, this winter is cold, so a woman can't catch a cold. It's bad for her health.”
”Ya, Qiao'er, mother is fine, how can you be so pampered?” Mrs Wang felt a little embarrassed.
In the past, she had also helped to clean up the pig's internal organs. However, the usual water didn't seem as cold as this year. She didn't know if she was used to living at home or if this year's Tian'er was colder than the previous years. She actually felt that the water in this large wooden basin was truly somewhat chilling to the bone.
However, after being warned repeatedly by old man Tian, she didn't say anything in the end. He cursed silently in his heart: ”Pfft, you really think of yourself as a rich young miss. You need to use hot water to wash things. What a cheap body, you got a rich person's disease.”
