Vol 311 Chapter 542: 542 Killing pigs?

Chapter 542 542. Kill a pig?

In fact, the quality of rushes this year is exceptionally good, so good that Song Youde has never seen it in all these years.

But what the things in the fields will look like, apart from intensive cultivation and good management, are often uncertain. So everyone was amazed for a while, but no one took it seriously.

Until Song Tan, the cheapest straw mat sold for 999, and the most expensive one cost 1599...

It’s just a straw mat!

This really shocked Lao Song, so much so that he was extremely careful when choosing materials to weave straw mats.

Now I regret that I was not too careful when I split the rushes, and a small part of the stem in the middle was split crooked.

The texture of this stalk is slightly hard, and it feels different from grass blades when braided. If only a thin strand is braided, it can be braided in to enhance its toughness.

But some of them were too thick, so I had to cut them again with a knife to cut off the old stems.

No, Song Youde grinned every time he picked something.

When Song Sancheng went to hug her, there wasn't much in the corner, just a bundle with two arms folded together.

At this point, Song Youde was still a little reluctant to part with him.

Normally, this would not be a problem. If the granddaughter hadn’t sold things so expensively, he could only think about the quality all the time, for fear that others would find fault with them and scold them for their lack of conscience...

With this pressure in his heart, the old man made a lot of money by weaving straw mats, but he didn't dare to show off in front of Wang Lifen.

It's a good thing he didn't show off, otherwise he would have been forced to be honest if he had been beaten by the old lady.

Furthermore, in previous years when they weaved straw mats, after the rushes were dried, they were originally yellow, and only the dried ones brought out some dull green color.

Unlike now, even the chopped stems are oily green.

Song Sancheng didn't think so much.

No matter how green and moist it is, aren’t they just using the leftovers to build a pigsty? That's why their family is so frugal.

It’s a hot day, and several pigs are all over the hillside, looking for places to lie down under the shade of trees. They rarely go back to the pig pen except when eating.

The floor of the pigsty had to be flushed with a water pipe every night to remove the heat, and there was no longer any straw underneath.

However, with 7 pigs and such a small bundle of grass, Song Sancheng looked at it and found that there was not even enough space for sleeping, making it extremely cramped.

But that’s all.

He didn't pay attention. On the contrary, several pigs screamed immediately when they saw someone, and their stomachs were like bottomless pits. Song Sancheng shook the rushes inside evenly and turned around to pour another bucket of water in.

However, in just a moment, two slightly smaller wild boars stood up from the shade of the tree and rushed into the pig pen with bumpy steps.

When he brought the water over, he found that the rushes that had just been laid on the ground were being chewed by several pigs...

Song Sancheng couldn't help but be stunned, and subconsciously wanted to go inside: -

I don’t know if this grass is edible or not. I need to stop it quickly!

But look again!

Well, there are half-broken pieces of debris left all over the ground, and not a whole one is seen. What's the point of stopping it? Eat as much as you like.

After staring at it for a while, he suddenly realized: Is there something wrong with the appearance of this pig?

Is it too big? !

I have two large white pigs at home. These pigs grow very fast and may weigh 300 kilograms by the end of the year - of course, they need to be raised scientifically.

What is scientific breeding?

Lock them in a pen and eat them every day without giving them room to move. They also need to feed more fattening and nutritious food...

But their pigs run all over the mountains and fields every day. When it rains, they wish they could dig themselves into a mud pit. They exercise enough every day... Where can there be so much fat?

But these pigs have been raised for 6 months now, but the big white pig looks like it weighs more than 200 kilograms. It is fat and strong, much fatter than the pig he remembered when he was a child!

Back when pigs were raised in large groups a few decades ago, just one pig had to be carried to the county exhibition!

He looked at the ladle in his hand again - he only added some wheat bran and rice bran every day, and the rest were all leftovers, wild vegetables, water plants in the pond, and some broken old pumpkins and the like...

This is not something to gain weight!

Looking at the three purchased black pigs, they are obviously smaller in size, but their whole body looks tight, and their four hooves are particularly powerful when they step on the ground.

Although she doesn’t look fat, the weight is definitely indispensable.

There are also two wild boars that entered the scene at the end. Their bodies are even smaller. They are running rampant all over the mountain at this moment, chewing the broken rushes in their mouths and pushing each other back and forth. Even the two taels of fat pigs have to run away like this. …

But, isn’t the strength a bit too much?

When I hit the tree, the whole tree trembled as if it was about to break...

He muttered this when he went home, but the seventh cousin couldn't help but said: "Then you said, the pigs are already 200 kilograms, why don't you kill one first?"

I don’t want anything else but that big white pig.

There is a lot of fat. When the time comes, cut off a piece of suet and fry it vigorously in the pan until the oil residue is crispy, brown and crispy, and fragrant. Then sprinkle some salt...

Ouch! Then you will have to lose your teeth!

Song Sancheng: ...suck.

Put the oil in again, wait until it solidifies into white, scoop out a spoonful every time you cook...

Not to mention, stir-frying vegetables with lard, especially stir-frying vegetables, is simply delicious! Lard residue can also be used to stir-fry, stew, and make steamed buns...

However, the pig weighs only 200 kilograms now. If we raise it again, will it really weigh 300 kilograms by the end of the year?

“No, no, it’s not worthwhile to eat now.”

He turned around and suggested: "Aren't there still soybeans? Can I take them to the town to press soybean oil? It will definitely be delicious."

The seventh cousin glanced at him: "The chestnut orchard is full of soybeans, which is less than three acres. How much can we get back from three acres of soybeans? The whole family can't wait to eat half a bag of pig's trotters in the stew pot. You still want to squeeze the oil?"

Song Sancheng:…

Pigs can’t do it anyway.

He then suggested: "Isn't there sesame seeds? Sesame seeds are also fine...press the oil after harvesting next month, it will definitely be very fragrant!"

"Ah!" The seventh cousin couldn't bear it anymore and taunted: "Half an acre of sesame seeds can be harvested in a big pot, and the oil must be about thirty or forty kilograms. Why, do you think thirty or forty kilograms of oil? How many dishes can you cook?”

Seeing that the seventh cousin was determined, he could only make another excuse: "No, no! Experts say that lard is unhealthy and you will easily get sick if you eat it!"

At this time, the seventh cousin was speechless.

Lard is unhealthy?

He opened his mouth and was about to speak when he saw Guo Dong entering the yard: "Uncle, don't listen to the experts' nonsense! Why is lard unhealthy? Lard is healthy!"

“Not only is it healthy, it can also cure diseases! Those of us who study Chinese medicine can often use this to treat diseases! It is also very nutritious!”

“The main thing is to pay attention to moderation in everything. If you want to make thick oil and red sauce every day, even the flat peach has to make up for its shortcomings. You can’t blame the lard.”

She didn't react until she finished speaking: "Hey? Where's Song Tan? Have my golden cherry seeds been dried? I'm waiting for the rice to be put into the pot!"

There is still one more night that I can’t finish writing, so I’ll finish it tomorrow morning.

Lard is really good, and it’s super fragrant for cooking. Again, everything must be done in moderation.
