"Kill the pig!"
With a shout from the crowd, the villagers gathered around. There is usually no entertainment in the village, and it is rare to kill a pig. Not to mention children, even adults want to watch the fun. .
A few sturdy villagers stepped forward and pulled out a fat pig, preparing to slaughter it.
Zhou Ziwen began to prepare cooking tools and seasonings to prepare for the pig killing feast.
"Zhou Zhiqing, you are good at your craftsmanship. We are all waiting to see you show off your skills." A villager looked at Zhou Ziwen's busy figure and said in admiration.
"Haha, just watch it! I guarantee that you will eat it until you want to swallow it." Zhou Ziwen replied with a smile.
“Haha, then we’ll be waiting.”
The villagers laughed and looked forward to this sumptuous pig-killing feast.
The pig was pulled to the makeshift slaughterhouse, and several villagers skillfully held the pig down in preparation for slaughter.
At this time, the pig seemed to feel the danger and began to struggle and howl desperately.
"Everyone, hold on, don't let it escape!" the villager in charge of the slaughter shouted loudly.
With a sharp cry, the pig's life ended.
Next, the villagers began to busily process the pig carcasses, scalding, skinning, and cutting them up...
Zhou Ziwen looked on with emotion in his heart.
In this era, killing pigs is a big event, not only to satisfy the appetite, but also as a way of celebration and reunion.
After a while, the pork was cut into pieces, and Zhou Ziwen began to show off his cooking skills.
He cut the meat skillfully, seasoned it, then put the cut pork into the pot, added various seasonings, and started stewing.
After a while, bursts of attractive aroma wafted out of the pot.
“Wow, it smells so good!” The villagers gathered around, smelling the aroma, and their mouths almost watered.
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, it won't happen so quickly." Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
When the meat was almost stewed, he added some cabbage, vermicelli and other side dishes and continued to stew.
With the addition of cabbage and vermicelli, the ingredients in the pot begin to roll, absorbing the essence of the broth.
Zhou Ziwen stirred with a large spoon from time to time to ensure that every piece of meat and every piece of vegetables could be heated evenly and the flavors could be fully integrated.
This is the first time Zhou Ziwen has shown off his cooking skills in public since he reached the level of perfection.
He didn't hide anything. Once you know the craft, you know it. If you don't know it, you don't know it. Others can't take it away.
As time passes, the freshness of the pork, the sweetness of the cabbage, and the smoothness of the vermicelli gradually blend together to form a unique flavor.
Zhou Ziwen added some of his own special seasonings to make the whole dish richer in flavor.
"Okay, everyone, prepare your bowls and chopsticks, it's time to start eating!" Zhou Ziwen took a rice spoon, turned around and said to the villagers.
With Zhou Ziwen's greeting, the villagers quickly took action. They took out their own bowls and chopsticks, and lined up one by one to come over for meals.
“Don’t worry, line up and come one by one.”
On the side, the captain and Wu Dagang were maintaining order.
Following the command of the captain and Wu Dagang, the villagers lined up in an orderly manner, and everyone's face was filled with expectant smiles.
The children shuttled curiously among the team, looking up from time to time at the steaming cauldron, their eyes shining with desire for delicious food.
Zhou Ziwen stood next to the big pot, the large spoon in his hand holding the stew steadily. Each spoonful was generous, ensuring that everyone could taste this delicious pig-killing feast.
“Zhou Zhiqing, this dish is so delicious, I can’t wait to try it.” A villager in the team couldn’t help but say.
"Don't worry, it will be your turn soon." Zhou Ziwen responded with a smile, his voice full of confidence and warmth.
The villagers took the pig-killing dishes prepared by Zhou Ziwen one after another, with smiles of satisfaction on their faces.
“Wow, this taste is simply amazing!” “Yes, Zhou Zhiqing’s craftsmanship is really incredible!”
Everyone was tasting the delicious meat. The pork dish, while praising it.
The children ate with their mouths full of oil, and the adults also gave thumbs up.
Watching everyone eating happily, Zhou Ziwen felt filled with a sense of accomplishment.
“Everyone, eat slowly and take care of yourself!” Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
This pig killing feast was full of laughter and laughter. Everyone sat together and enjoyed the food.
In this cold winter, the pig killing feast not only warms everyone's stomach, but also warms everyone's heart.
They all knew that the production team was so generous this time because of Zhou Ziwen.
If Zhou Ziwen hadn’t led everyone to grow mushrooms and made a lot of money for the village, Wu Dagang and the team leader would not be so generous.
After eating, the villagers helped clear away the dishes and clean the place.
“Zhiqing Zhou, thank you so much for letting us eat such a delicious butchered pig dish today.”
“Yes, this is the best butchered pig dish I have ever eaten. It’s time to eat.”
The villagers expressed their gratitude to Zhou Ziwen.
Zhou Ziwen said with a smile: "Don't be so polite, everyone, I am happy if everyone can enjoy their meal."
After cleaning up, the villagers dispersed one after another and went home.
Zhou Ziwen also went home with Chen Qiaoyi and Chen Shiying.
"Brother Ziwen, you are so awesome today. Everyone praises your skills." Chen Qiaoyi said with a smile.
"Yes, Ziwen, your cooking skills are really good." Chen Shiying said with envy.
"Haha, I will teach you when I get home." Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
He is someone he cherishes, not to mention that Chen Shiying is still his woman.
After listening to Zhou Ziwen's words, Chen Shiying blushed and responded softly, "Okay, I will study hard."
"Haha, let's go home quickly, I Let me teach you some unique skills." Zhou Ziwen said impatiently.
As night falls, the village gradually returns to tranquility, but the hearts of the villagers are full of warmth and satisfaction.
Zhou Ziwen and the Chen sisters were walking home. The moonlight shone on them, lengthening their shadows.
Back at home, Zhou Ziwen urged the two sisters to wash up, while he put the child on the kang so that she could sleep peacefully.
Speaking of this, Zhou Ziwen was quite surprised. Little Yueyue was very lively when she was awake, but very quiet when she was sleeping.
When she is asleep, she will usually not be woken up.
With a good night's sleep and being active, her physical fitness is much better than that of other children of the same age.
Although it has only been two months, she has already begun to learn to stand up.
Although he hasn’t learned it yet, Zhou Ziwen estimates that it will only take a few days.
You know, under normal circumstances, it takes at least three months for a newborn to learn to roll over.
Little Yueyue has such signs at just two months old, indicating that her development is very good.
After arranging little Yueyue's arrangements, the two sisters came back after washing up.
While they were watching the children, Zhou Ziwen also went to wash up and then hurried back.
“Come on, Shiying, let me teach you a few tricks.”
Zhou Ziwen got on the kang with a smile and started today’s teaching activities. (End of this chapter)
