In the farmyard, people tie pigs to their feet and boil water. The fierce butcher slowly cuts, blows, cuts and divides the meat. The fat smell of fat rises with the dense fog of boiling water, and the excitement of the New Year slowly spreads. Many people say that without the excitement of eating pork soup, there will be no fun for the New Year.
It is not easy to see a happy family reunion when killing pigs in the New Year. First, not many people used to raise pigs. Second, the young and middle-aged people in the village have gone out to work, so it is not easy to kill pigs at home. Third, people's living conditions are better than in the past, and it is easy to eat tons of meat.
Of course, there are still many places that still follow the habit of killing pigs, because the pork bought outside is basically fed with feed and has no fragrance. So many people choose to feed their pigs with grain and sweet potatoes. Although the slaughter time is slow, the meat is delicious and safe and reliable. But generally, people are hired to kill pigs, or pigs are dragged to slaughterhouses for slaughter. It was rare to kill pigs in the past. Killing pigs in the past left us with a memory and a memory of the past.
In the era of collective economy, there are two main points to kill pigs in rural areas: one is to kill pigs at the members' meeting of the production team after the autumn, and the other is to kill pigs at the members' meeting.
Kill pigs and divide meat for the New Year.
At that time, it was a division of labor system, and every worker had to record the division of labor, so the whole year's farm work ended in autumn. How much grain has been produced, how much public grain has been paid, how much grain has been distributed, and how much yellow smoke has been bought, etc., must be calculated one by one, and then how much money will be distributed according to the division of labor of each household, and it should be posted and publicized.
After all this is clarified, it will be a big meal for male laborers. In the period of rural collective economy, male labor force is the main force of production, so they are eligible to attend conference meals. All the women did not take part except the captain of the production team.
At that time, the production team raised pigs by itself. After lunch, the adults began to get busy. Some boiled pig hair in a big pot, and some began to prepare vegetable raw materials. The busiest thing is to kill pigs. Most people don't have the guts yet, so we children will follow. Take a pig, hit a stick on the pig's head and the pig will basically faint, and then kill it with a knife. It is also necessary to pump air under the pigskin to make it swell for shaving. In this way, more than half an afternoon passed.
It's getting dark, the pork is stewed, and the fried miscellaneous vegetables are basically here, just waiting for the banquet.
This smell will make our children salivate. I hurried home. My mother gave me fifty cents, an enamel bowl and chopsticks, and a small stool. A few friends got together and were embarrassed to tell the accountant secretly that they were entitled to eat and drink only after paying 50 cents.
The adults poured wine and served vegetables, and then it was our children's turn to serve meat and vegetables. Adults are so bad that our children have to drink it, otherwise the second wave will be out of the question after eating the first wave of rice. Those timid children are unlucky, and after a few drinks, they are basically drunk.
This is the most lively pig killing in a year. Another time, killing pigs was to divide the meat during the Chinese New Year. A lot of pigs will be killed this time, and each household will get a share.
At that time, the production team and each household raised pigs for at least one year. In summer and autumn, our children have to pull weeds to feed pigs after school every day.
But pork was really delicious at that time. It smells really good.
1. If we simply analyze it from the literal question: How many months is it to kill pigs every year? My answer is, as long as you have time, you can kill pigs four days a year!
2. the question should be: when is the Chinese new year to kill pigs? My answer is: Under normal circumstances, you can kill Nian pig in the winter solstice of 24 solar terms, because the weather turns cold at this time, so it is better to save some pigs for bacon at this temperature!
However, according to people's living habits, pigs are usually not killed in winter solstice, but in winter and the twelfth month to prepare for the New Year!
It used to be the first month and the Mid-Autumn Festival. Nowadays, whenever it is time to kill pigs.
If you want to know when to kill pigs every year, of course, there are more from February to the end of the year, and the purchases at the end of the year are also very popular.
But now more people earn money to raise pigs. No matter what month, as long as the pig is fat, it should be slaughtered for money, and it should be slaughtered.
When killing pigs before, I often saw many people chasing pigs. Pigs seemed to know that the expectation of death was coming. That cry was really a heartbreaking cry, and I made my last heart-wrenching cry before I died.
By contrast, killing is much easier. Sheep will cry silently and let others kill them. It is even more distressing to others. No wonder people say: a good man is a sheep and a man is a pig.
Now there are fewer farmers nearby and fewer pigs and sheep. This kind of scene is not common, so think about it!
I also came to answer for fun. When I was a child, I had pigs at home.
It can still be said that at that time, there was a family in our village who slaughtered livestock, not because my uncle sold pork, but because my uncle would kill people. ...
Usually, I find my uncle to kill pigs in the surrounding villages before and after the winter vacation in the village central primary school. Usually, my uncle will tell my uncle a good day in advance, and then my uncle will find some guys to wait for the villagers to catch the fat pig that day, and then stun it around 10 and kidnap it to the gallows.
Then, uncle will bleed and slaughter, and the blood will catch the cold tofu to make blood and wash the pig's blood. After cleaning the internal organs, uncle will put the pig down, smear the pig's hair with the prepared hot asphalt and pull it out.
After cleaning up, the villagers will sell it on the spot. Like pig's head and trotters, someone will say hello to buy them in advance. Even if no one says hello in advance, they will buy it at the first time (at that time, many old people died in winter and the pig's head was tight). Before selling, the main family will leave some pork, some of which will be rewarded to uncles and brothers, and some will stay at home to eat.
I can't see it now. One reason is that no one keeps pigs, and the other reason is that no one wants to slaughter them. Finally, I will send you a pig-killing dish. When I was a child, I ate a lot in winter.
December 28th! There is a saying in Yichang, Hubei: on the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, kill pigs; Walking in the streets of the 29 th cross of the twelfth lunar month, frying rice and making wine; On the thirtieth day of the twelfth lunar month, posters are put up and firecrackers are set off. Chinese New Year is really lively!
We basically killed pigs in February 65438 in Northeast China. Around New Year's Day, every household didn't have such a big freezer. It's cold outside, so meat can be frozen naturally outside. You can put it on for the New Year, and everyone is at leisure. Moreover, after the cold weather, pigs are not easy to gain meat, but will lose meat. At this time, every family will begin to prepare to kill pigs and invite friends from the left-handed and right-handed houses to start a party.
