Chapter 257: Dividing the Meat
With the uncle's approval, many interested people really took a closer look at the hunting team mates who were with Yue Feng.
These young men who have grown up are not short in stature, and they are all quite upright in appearance.
Although he is a little less interesting than the protagonist Yue Feng, among ordinary people, he is definitely considered a handsome youngster.
At that moment, an aunt on the back street fell in love with the taller Xiao Tao, and enthusiastically took Xiao Tao's arm: "What is your name, young man? Which village are you from? This year How old are you? How many brothers do you have? Your aunt has a niece who is 19 years old. Can I meet you later?”
The sudden scene made Xiao Tao blush instantly.
Although this guy is so hot-blooded that he can be called a god of war when he uses force, but when faced with a series of questions from the aunt in the village, he got stuck in a very embarrassing manner.
"I...I am young, not yet an adult! I don't think about my partner for the time being!"
"Hahahahaha"
The villagers saw Xiao Tao reacted with embarrassment, but everyone laughed in good faith.
In this situation, Yue Feng didn't think there was anything to be taboo about, so he replied generously on behalf of Xiao Tao: "This is my neighbor's child, the big Li Mingtao. There are only two sisters in the family and a younger sister! I am Uncle Li. I'm a tractor driver in the village!
But my mother is married far away, and our families are all over there in Fengcheng. If we don't mind marrying far away, we can help my brother find a suitable partner! < br>
Myself, please don’t bother me. We will get engaged on the eighth day of the lunar month.
Also, the two people next to me are named Xiaowen and Xiaowu. They are famous in the Zhang family! Dutiful son, we are famous in every village!
Both brothers are also practical and capable. We hunt together, and each of us can get at least a hundred yuan in a month!
If you are interested, you can help match them later!
According to the seniority in the village, I don’t know what to call everyone. Anyway, they are all relatives in my own family. I have to worry about the marriage of my younger brothers! ”
After what Yue Feng said, the enthusiasm of the villagers became even higher.
Following the hunting team to go hunting in the mountains, you can get one hundred and ten yuan a month. What a huge amount of money this is, ordinary people People took out the money from their hometown, and it was only a hundred or ten yuan a lot.
Many people thought there was something wrong with Yue Feng’s words, but the wild boar meat hanging on the shelf in the yard supported this from the side. The truth of the matter.
If you go into the mountains and you can hunt down seven or eight wild boars, ten bucks a month is not that exaggerated.
Compared with Xiaotao's embarrassment, brothers Xiaowen and Xiaowu, because they are slightly older and have more social experience of supporting the table at home all day long, face the inquiries about dating that they are interested in. Instead, they respond It's decent, and there are actually a few people who think it's appropriate and have some ideas.
This little episode diluted the atmosphere of the uncle speaking and then dividing the meat, but the uncle is not the kind of person who cares about these details.
When the atmosphere in the crowd calmed down a little, the uncle continued: "Now, everyone lines up in a row, with families as units. Those who have been separated will be counted as a single family, and those who have not been separated will have one family. Representative, don’t grab it, there are more than a hundred pounds of meat, everyone has a share!
When the queue is ready, we will divide the meat!”
They were all from the village, and since the owner had given the rules, no one in the crowd watching the excitement quickly formed a line according to the uncle's request.
There is definitely no way to get out of a queue, so I turned a few corners in the yard, and those who came late had no one to fight for them, so they consciously moved to the back of the queue.
After the queue was formed, the uncle roughly counted the number of families receiving meat with his eyes, and then began to cut and divide the meat.
There were many people watching the excitement in the yard. If we divided it into family units, there would only be about thirty households.
This male wild boar, including meat and bones, weighs a hundred kilograms. My uncle learned to kill sheep in his early years. Although his skills have been largely abandoned, he is still competent at the small job of cutting meat.
Two or three kilograms of meat with a knife. After cutting, a bunch of rice straws are counted as one portion. The blind date who received the meat will carry the meat and leave for the next one.
Although they are all villagers in the village, they are also divided into distant and distant relatives. Those who are not close to each other may be given less meat. Those who are close to each other may be given less meat. Those who are close to each other may be given more meat as much as possible. Find a relative balance between personal feelings and the mood of the villagers.
Dozens of portions of meat were divided in less than half an hour. One fan of meat was divided into seven, seven or eight, and the bones picked out from the back were also given to the last few villagers who had less meat. Separated.
Meat is given to you for free, and no one is picky about it. Everyone who gets the meat is cheering. These few kilograms of meat will be used to make oil. Adding a little when cooking will make it more meaty. As for the public No one cares about which one tastes better, pork or sow pork.
When the meat was divided, the crowd watching the excitement in the courtyard slowly dispersed.
The uncle kept a smile on his face from beginning to end. After finishing sharing the meat with the villagers, he and his second uncle packed up the other meat hanging on the shelves.
The temperature outside was very low. The wild boar meat was frozen to a semi-hard state after being dragged all the way back. However, the uncle didn’t care about this. He held the sharp knife in his hand like a steel drill and patiently worked hard little by little. All the wild boars were skinned, then the bones were removed, and the different parts of the meat were divided into different pieces according to their location.
I have been busy from mid-afternoon until almost dark, and the meat of these eight or nine wild boars has finally been roughly processed.
The wild boar skin is spread on the ground, and the pieces of meat in different positions are placed on the pig skin in a differentiated manner. This work is done neatly.
"The work is almost over, Xiaofeng. The meat is packed away. Let's bury it in snow at the base of the wall. When you go back, we can pick it out and take it back!" The uncle said as he walked into the house and rubbed his hands. .
Hearing this, Yue Feng shook his head: "Uncle, let's share some of this meat at home and keep it for eating! We won't take it back when we go back! We don't lack this at home!"
Hearing Yue Feng At this, the uncle shook his head repeatedly: "How about that! We can't help you much. Your second uncle took you into the mountain. According to the rules of joining the gang, there is only one group. There are so many of you, and it's not you. It’s your own work!”
Before Yue Feng could continue to express his position, Xiaowen next to him answered: “Uncle, we and Brother Feng don’t care about this at home! Pointing to the small dividends from farming, life is not good.
Since Brother Feng took us up the mountain to fly eagles, we have never been short of meat, including wild boar, bear meat, venison, roe deer, and lynx. We have everything in our vegetable cellar! We even shot two leopards a few days ago!”
Xiao Tao also echoed: "Yes, my dad drives a tractor, and the team can get a few yuan more every year, but that's it, life is tight!
Now our family has no shortage of anything. Brother Feng took all the prey caught by hawks into the city and sold it, and he could earn several dollars in one trip!" After the two friends finished speaking, Yue Feng continued: "Keep all the meat, that's it!
Don’t worry, brother-in-law who shares the profits with us in the hunting team. We came back here with the intention of catching sables for breeding at Blind Tuozi Mountain. When a breeding farm is built in the future, all of them will have shares. !
Hunting wild boars is just a matter of chance!
When I came here, I felt bad when I saw that my grandma’s family was still living a hard life.
In the past, we were far away and had no energy to help, but now I have brought people here. There is no reason to kill prey and then bring it back!
If the family doesn't speak the same language, how do you handle the meat? Just listen to me, okay?
Uncle, second uncle, please show your attitude! "
The eldest nephew has said all this. How can the eldest uncle and the second uncle not understand the meaning.
It's not good if the family is living well. It's really good if all the relatives in grandma's family can live a good life.
The second sister is married far away, and there is little help from the family, but this second nephew definitely has a plan and can handle things clearly.
The second uncle was the first to express his position: "I will lead the way up the mountain this time and do some chores. I will listen to my nephew about how to divide the meat!"
The second uncle went up the mountain to do the work. They all expressed their opinions first, and the uncle naturally no longer hesitated, and nodded slowly: "In that case, the uncle will be shameless and listen to my nephew!
Although the second brother and I are separated, Although they are still brothers, they help each other out and never blush. If you want to keep this piece of meat, it’s up to you how to divide it!”
Both elders expressed their opinions, and Yue Feng felt confident.
This kind of matter involving interests must be handled with caution, because it is not a matter of scarcity but of inequality. If one person is not handled well, a good thing will turn into a bad thing.
However, my grandma’s family has a very upright family tradition. My uncle and my second uncle’s family are in harmony. My aunt and my sister-in-law are also kind-hearted and well-educated. The problem will not occur in the Meng family.
Yue Feng paused for two seconds and said: "Since you have all expressed your willingness to listen to me, my nephew can pretend to be a big head and start splitting up!
My uncle usually has to serve grandpa, grandma, and my second uncle. I provided information and took the hunting team up the mountain to do a lot of hard work. On the one hand, it is credit, and on the other hand, it is hard work. I will not worry about who paid more and who paid less
The meat brought back from the mountain this time is temporarily added to the meat, which is half for the first uncle's family and the second uncle's family! Grandma, grandpa, uncle and uncle, what do you think? "
Grandma and grandpa looked at each other and said in unison: "We have no objection! "
The eldest uncle and the second uncle did not hesitate at all: "We have no objection either! ”
“That’s it! The meat is temporarily buried under the wall with snow. When all the boars that have not been pulled back from the mountain and the sewage are brought back, half of the meat will be divided among the families! "Yue Feng waved his hand and made the final decision on dividing the meat.
After talking about the business, the second uncle next to him said again: "With so much meat, even if you eat it with your belly open, you will still be able to eat it. I can’t finish it even after the spring thaw! I want to keep some of it and sell the rest!
Let’s scrape together the money from selling meat and see if we can buy a gun!
After I went hunting with you guys in the mountains, I realized that hunting is so easy with hard guns and good dogs!
If I also had a gun, I wouldn’t have to do menial work for others when I go into the mountains, and my life at home would be better! "
Hearing what the second uncle said, the eldest uncle immediately expressed his position: "What the second uncle said makes sense. With so much meat, I will sell half of my share and give it to the second uncle. Buy a gun! It only costs about two hundred yuan to buy a hanging pipe of similar quality!
If we want to live a good life, we can’t rely solely on our nephews, we have to work hard ourselves!
I have been living in a state of confusion for half my life, taking care of my family. I feel so ashamed! ”
Yue Feng was deeply touched by the words of his uncle and uncle.
There are indeed opportunities in the development of the times, but among all the living beings who are swept away by the times in the city, how many people can Under the heavy pressure of survival, are you able to look up and look into the distance?
This is not the sorrow of the uncle and the second uncle, but the limitation of the development of the times.
Tired. After a year of hard work, the family has only a small amount of income, and it has to deal with large and small mouths. It is not easy to take care of the elderly and children without letting them suffer from cold and hunger.
But things are different now. After his rebirth, Yue Feng has brought a vision far beyond the times. With just a little help, his relatives and families can get off the original track and live a better life.
"I also support the second uncle's decision! After getting the gun, I will get some dogs later! When the farming slacks off, the second uncle can recruit people to go hunting in the mountains!
If the second uncle is willing If you want to fly hawks to hunt Xiaowei, I will come next fall. Don’t look down on hawks to catch rabbits and pheasants. If you can find a way to sell these live game to the canteens, agencies and other units in the city, your life will definitely be better. Get better!
Now that the country has relaxed the control on ordinary people setting up stalls and going to the market to do small businesses, but it has not yet officially issued a document, the horizons are wide open, with the mountains at your back, even if you do something a little bit, It’s better than pointing to the bonus in the team!
This little land in the village doesn’t support people!”
"Okay, listen to my nephew! Let's work hard later and try to make the family live a better life with the help of my nephew!"
The second uncle nodded repeatedly. After listening to Yue Feng's words, it was as if the shackles branded on his head by the times were slowly loosening.
While the men at home were chatting, my aunt opened the door of the east room.
"What are you guys talking about here? Hurry and pick up the table and get ready to eat! Thanks to Xiaofeng, this meal tonight is up to par with the standards of a New Year's Eve dinner!"
Yue Feng raised his head and glanced at his aunt's soft and affectionate face: "Auntie, what delicious food did you cook with your second aunt!"
"Braised pork, braised pork ribs, elbows removed from Xiao Huangmao, and pork belly, pickled cabbage and vermicelli noodles are all hard dishes. Come out and wash your hands and eat!"
"Okay! Let's go, let's go, we're busy. Everyone is exhausted from the whole day. Let's have some drinks with my uncle and uncle in the evening!" Yue Feng stood up and quickly filed out of the east room with his brothers.
When the family went to the mountains to hunt livestock, the Meng family showed their faces in the village. The whole family was very happy.
In the evening, the whole family sat around the table and ate peacefully. The men drank and chatted, and the women talked in low voices. This lively atmosphere gave Yue Feng An indescribable feeling.
My grandparents passed away early, and my father had no brothers or sisters. This kind of family atmosphere cannot be felt in my own family.
