Chapter 16 Boar Belly

After a while, the village chief led two people back carrying the tortoise who started screaming in pain again.

He came to Zhang Taiping, patted Zhang Taiping's arm and said, "Commander, you did a good job. You saved Ba Jin and protected Bao Gu. You didn't bring shame on your father's face."

Then he turned around and said sternly to a group of people who were still discussing excitedly around the wild boar: "The wild boar is not a cherished and precious animal. Now that it is dead, if you go back and skin it, every family can get a share of the meat. But today

Put everything you saw at night back into your stomach. If someone spreads the news outside the village, don’t blame me, an old guy, for not showing mercy. Did you all hear it?"

In a village like this that goes further into the mountains, the authority of the village chief becomes greater. After all, there is a hint of clan rule in it. A group of people all patted their chests. Even without the village chief's explanation, it is estimated that no one rushed out to stab Zhang.

Taiping's strength is obvious to all, and no one is confident that he can be more ferocious than a crazed wild boar.

After the village chief said this, he began to arrange for people to take turns to carry the wild boar back.

After leaving the cornfield and reaching the road, Zhang Taiping helped up the car and walked at the end with Wang Peng. He took out cigarettes and each of them lit one. After taking a puff, Wang Peng put the cigarette in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully. Then he exclaimed.

road.

"The handsome guy has become rich. He smokes soft Chinese."

"If you give it to your big head, the cigarette can't stop your mouth. This is a gift from a friend."

After a while, Wang Peng couldn't help but ask: "Handsome guy, why haven't I seen you in the countryside during this time?"

Although the words were only half spoken, Zhang Taiping knew what he meant. He was asking why he hadn't gone to the mahjong parlor recently. Wang Peng had also gone to the house to look for him before, but Zhang Taiping had always been like a girl hiding in a boudoir.

Even if he couldn't see the boss, he was rejected by Cai Yazhi.

Zhang Taiping said: "I won't go anywhere in the future."

"Is it hard for the handsome guy to find another restaurant?" Wang Peng asked. "I also feel that there is something wrong with that restaurant. If I had your skills like you, the handsome guy, I would have smashed his motherfuckers a long time ago. Otherwise, handsome guy, you can call me in again."

With just a few people, we can open a mahjong parlor and make money."

Zhang Taiping stopped and slapped him on the back of the head.

"You only know how to gamble all day long, but don't you know how to do something else?" Zhang Taiping said angrily, "You still open a mahjong parlor, do you have the funds? Do you think you can buy mahjong for free?" Zhang Taiping only knew how to scold.

Wang Peng completely forgot what kind of virtue he had before.

Wang Peng rubbed the back of his head and said like an angry little daughter-in-law, "If we don't go to the casino, what are we going to do?"

Zhang Taiping pushed the car forward again and said: "Think of some legitimate ways to make some money and save it. You are twenty years old this year, right? In two years, you will marry a wife and have children and live a good life."

"Who doesn't want to marry a daughter-in-law, but where will the money come from?" Wang Peng answered truthfully.

"That's why I asked you to find a way to make money and save some money. Go to the mahjong parlor all day long. Do you think you can keep any money that day?" Zhang Taiping said helplessly.

Wang Peng scratched his head and thought for a while, but still couldn't think of any way to make money, and said with a smile: "I can't think of a way. Then I will do whatever you do, handsome guy."

Zhang Taiping didn't say anything, which was regarded as acquiescing. Zhang Taiping was willing to support him, and he was his younger brother since childhood. He was an orphan and a widower, and he had no family background. A dazed head like his would only be deceived after going out.

share.

The wild boar was carried back to the small village, which added to the excitement. When Zhang Taiping came home, it was already past nine o'clock. When he knocked on the door, his wife Cai Yazhi stepped back with an "ah" sound, and the door clanged shut again.

Inexplicably, Zhang Taiping suddenly realized that his face was covered with blood. It would be strange if he didn't scare him to death if he knocked on the door at night. He hurriedly said loudly: "It's me, open the door."

There was a buzz in the house, and then the door was opened again. His wife Cai Yazhi held a poker, and her tough sister-in-law Cai Xiaomei simply took a kitchen knife. Zhang Taiping walked into the house and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Cai Xiaomei looked Zhang Taiping up and down and said to Cai Yazhi: "Sister, this is my brother-in-law. He can also scare you."

Only then did Cai Yazhi see clearly, and hurriedly closed the door, gesturing nervously and asking, "What's wrong with you? Why are you bleeding so much?" Seeing that her face was frightened, her face turned pale.

Zhang Taiping hurriedly explained: "When I came back just now, I encountered a wild boar that was causing harm to Baogu. It also stole a kilo from the king in the north of the village, so I killed the wild boar. The blood is all pig blood. Don't worry, I'm not injured."

Cai Yazhi was still worried. She pulled her clothes and looked carefully. She was relieved when she saw no wounds.

Seeing that the color in his wife's face had returned, Zhang Taiping said: "Get a basin of hot water and let me wash my face first. It's sticky and uncomfortable."

The wife hurried to the kitchen to get hot water. Cai Xiaomei went into the bedroom and never came out.

Dinner is noodle soup. Roll out the noodles thinly and cut them into small pieces two centimeters wide and seven or eight centimeters long. After they are cooked, add the vegetables that have been stir-fried in advance and mix them well. This is usually the case for dinner in rural areas in Guanzhong. Zhang Taiping even

I drank two bowls of soup and noodles, and added two pieces of Guokui before I was full.

After putting down the bowl, he stopped his wife who was preparing to wash her feet with water and asked her to close the door to the courtyard. He put a towel on his shoulders and walked out of the backyard. After struggling with the big wild boar for so long, his whole body was covered in blood, sweat, and dirt.

Go to the upper reaches of the river and take a cold bath. When you come back, you feel a little sleepy and fall asleep at the end.

Early the next morning, Zhang Taiping was practicing boxing in the orchard when Yaya ran over and shouted: "Dad, the village chief is looking for you in the house."

Zhang Taiping stopped practicing, put on short sleeves, put Yaya on his neck, and ran back to the house, leaving behind a clear and cheerful laughter like an oriole.

Zhang Taiping could guess the purpose of the old village chief's visit, which was to bring some meat. Before he even entered the door, he could hear the old village chief's hearty laughter: "Niece, please don't push me. Your family deserves this meat.

The whole wild boar was slaughtered by your boss."

After Zhang Taiping entered the house, the village chief said again: "Commander, I skinned that guy and put it in the pot last night. I left you the whole hind legs and pig head, and also gave you the pig belly. Don't be dissatisfied.

It’s less, after all, every family has to share some of it, and if there are dozens of families, there won’t be much left.”

Zhang Taiping nodded as a promise.

The old village chief is in his fifties. He is called "old" because he is respectful and looks very old. In rural areas, people generally look older than those in the city. This is related to daily work and lack of maintenance.

The old village chief's surname was Wang Hanmin. He had a close relationship with Zhang's father and had been friends for decades. In recent years, Zhang's father has been gone and has taken good care of the Zhang family. He lent 20,000 yuan and never came to ask for it. In the village

Li has good prestige and is fair and proper in dealing with things. Zhang Taiping had a good impression of him.

When the old village chief saw Zhang Taiping nodded, he stood up and said, "Okay, the things have been delivered. It's time for me to go back. My eight-pound leg bone is cracked. I have to go and take a look later."

Zhang Taiping sent the old village chief out of the yard, returned to the house, picked up the pig belly and looked at it carefully. Wild boar belly is pig stomach. This is a good thing. According to the "Compendium of Materia Medica", pig belly is slightly warm in nature, sweet in taste, and has a strong taste.

Gastritis, the effect of strengthening the stomach and replenishing deficiency.

Wild boars with thick fur and thick skin eat a variety of foods, including bamboo shoots, herbs, bird eggs, mushrooms, hares, mountain rats, poisonous snakes, and centipedes. As long as they can eat, they will eat anything. Although scientists have not yet determined whether wild boars are immune to toxins.

A unanimous conclusion. But judging from the fact that the wild boar did not die from eating poisonous food, it can be said that the stomach of the wild boar is invulnerable to all poisons and avoids all evils.

It is said that after a wild boar swallows a venomous snake, the venomous snake's teeth will bite the inner wall of the wild boar's belly. The wild boar's belly, which has been soaked in various Chinese herbal medicines for a long time, has its own way of healing the wound by producing granulation tissue at the base of the wound, which then forms fibers.

tissue and scar tissue, leaving a "D" character on the gastric mucosa on the surface of the stomach. The more "Ding" characters, the higher its medicinal value.

Modern medical techniques also show that the substances in pork belly can help digestion and promote metabolism, and have certain pharmacological effects on gastric bleeding, gastric ulcers, intestinal ulcers and other ulcers.

Because wild boars eat without scruples, the smell in the pig's belly is very strong, and special methods are needed to deal with the smell without damaging its nutrition. Zhang Taiping doesn't know if other people can do it, but he can, and there are relevant information in the medicine book in the back room.

records.

As for the hind legs of wild boars, they are all lean meat. Wild boars run around in the mountains and forests all year round, and the excess fat is completely burned, leaving only strong muscles. Domestic pigs are kept in small areas, and they only eat, sleep and eat.

The fat has grown all over the body, so the fat is thick.

Therefore, the growth cycle of wild boars is much longer than that of domestic pigs. Relatively speaking, the meat of wild boars is tough and chewy, but rough; the meat of domestic pigs is more delicate, but it is too fat, too greasy, and has no chewy texture.

, with the improvement of people's living standards in cities, people are gradually rejecting domestic pork.

So some people cross-bred wild boars with domestic pigs, and the meat produced by the next generation is tough, fine and moderate, and not too greasy. Now this kind of breeding is being promoted, and the meat produced is also widely loved by the public.

No matter what the city people want, in this remote mountain village, as long as it is meat, no matter whether it is domestic pork or wild boar, whether it is lean meat or fat meat, the villagers welcome it. Most people

People always judge others by themselves, and measure the level of the entire society by their own living standards and the small circles they come into contact with. How many people can imagine that in this era when most people choose to replace pork with vegetables, there are still many problems.

Meat once a month is a luxury for countless people.

Zhang Taiping looked at his smiling wife and little Yaya who seemed to be drooling, and his heart was filled with warmth. As long as it was what they wanted, let alone a little wild boar, even the whole world, Zhang Tianping dared to use his strength to

Pestle it.

He squatted down and scraped little Yaya's nose, and asked: "Yaya, what do you want to eat? Dad will cook it for you at noon."

"Pork stewed vermicelli!" Xiao Yaya said without thinking while slurping her saliva.

Zhang Taiping couldn't help but feel pity again. In little Yaya's heart, the most delicious thing was not KFC or McDonald's, but the pork stewed vermicelli that city children had long forgotten.

Zhang Taiping said with a smile: "Okay, dad will make you pork stewed vermicelli and braised pig's trotters for lunch. I'm sure you can still eat them."

"Well, daddy is the best." Little Yaya licked her lips with her pink tongue and nodded fiercely.

"Okay," Zhang Taiping said to his wife with a smile, "wash the meat. I bought a bag of rice yesterday. I will make some dishes and eat rice at noon."

After saying that, Cai Yazhi and Cai Xiaomei opened the door and walked to the back room without waiting for questions. It would be useless to talk about it now. The proof will be given after doing it at noon.
