The Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

No matter how turbulent it is outside, my hometown can always give people a different kind of peace.

Especially at the end of the year, adults don't have to think about work, and children don't have to think about going to school. All day long, I was thinking about the delicious things to buy for the New Year, and how to have fun today. The strangely decadent life makes people feel unspeakably relaxed.

Du Heng was given a holiday by Yang Dongxu. After all, Yang Dongxu could not be in danger in Yangjiacun.

Especially with the rise of homestays, there are more people doing business from outside in every village and every market in Yangjia Village.

Although the original village is more mixed with dragons and snakes, there are all kinds of tourists from all over the country, but the security force here has risen to a higher level. Almost every village has Yang Dongxu's eyeliner, and the Yang family village is firmly guarded in the center. .

In addition, due to the development of Yangjia Village, the pharmaceutical market in Jiaocheng City has been particularly prosperous in recent years, and the construction of new countryside has begun to take the lead in the country.

Not only have cement roads been opened in every village, and homestay tourism, which can stimulate the local economy, has been further accelerated. Even Tianyan, a high-tech method that has just been used in cities, has also begun to deploy control in the rural areas of Jiaocheng City, including Yangjia Village.

In all villages with homestays, whether it is the intersection of county roads, provincial roads, national roads, or the village entrances around the village, surveillance can basically be seen.

At the same time, during the period of the end of the year, after several gangsters who stole dogs were arrested and sentenced one after another, the spirit of the entire countryside was lifted again.

This also makes many tourists go to the countryside in batches, regardless of the heavy snow and cold, even at the end of the year. Driving a car to buy a large number of cheaper and more affordable New Year’s goods than in urban supermarkets.

Some even plan to spend the New Year in the countryside and not return to the city. In recent years, many cities have banned shooting cannons, and even burning paper to worship ancestors has to go to designated places.

However, in the face of such a group of tourists, many villagers who usually run homestays will basically not provide rooms. After all, the family is happy during the Chinese New Year, and no one wants to be disturbed by outsiders.

In addition to eating, drinking and having fun at the end of the year, relatives have to go away at the beginning of the year, and many relatives who go away are dispatched by the whole family, so it is not at ease to hand over the home to foreign tourists.

In addition, at the beginning of the year, relatives also came to visit from home, eating and drinking, and some stayed overnight after drinking too much, and there were not so many rooms for tourists.

Therefore, such tourists are all arranged in an exclusive small courtyard.

This is also a major feature of homestays at present, which are single-door houses built in the form of courtyards on some open land in the village, which are rented out to tourists who want to experience rural life.

You can live in these small courtyards for two or three days like staying in a hotel, or you can rent them for a long time. In addition to the small courtyards, you can also rent and plant some fields, and even have nests for chickens, ducks and poultry. You can also raise them. Some chickens and ducks.

This kind of rural life experience courtyard was very popular once it was launched, but after all the popularity, there is no one who can really live here for a year or so.

After all, everyone is very busy now, and many tourists are very novel. After renting for a month or two, the originally interesting rural life gradually becomes dull.

Whatever you do repeatedly, you will be excited from the beginning, gradually become normal, and even become bored in the end.

Therefore, those tourists who want to rent an independent small courtyard for a year or two, after persuading them to experience the rural life in the small courtyard for a month or two, feel the novelty and are unwilling to stay in the small courtyard.

After all, compared to the various feasting and prosperity of big cities, rural life is still too monotonous and simple.

Therefore, except for some retired tourists who have nothing to do, most tourists come to experience it during holidays, and tourists at other times are mainly tourists who come for sightseeing.

Yang Dongxu started to get up when the sky was just dawn, and Xiao Wenchen, who was sleeping soundly, opened his sleepy eyes when he heard the sound and got up.

Yang's mother persuaded him to sleep more and not stop, and insisted on following his father to the pig farm to catch big pigs.

Pig farms raise pigs here, but they no longer kill pigs here, so the two big pigs that have been marked and marked early in the morning and the night before will be pushed onto a cart and pulled down to the entrance of the village for collective slaughter.

The pigs raised by the Yang family are basically brought to the slaughterhouse in the city. At the end of the year, they would be sold to farmers who wanted to slaughter pigs in ten miles and eight towns, but now they basically don't sell them.

Because whether it is traditional Chinese medicine cultivation or homestay tourism, many migrant workers have returned to the countryside. And to entertain guests in the city.

The only thing that can be sold is the rural specialty chicken, duck and fish, so because of going out to work, there are only old people and children in the countryside all year round.

Now the strong laborers of every family are at home, so in addition to raising some chickens and ducks, the originally abandoned pigpens, sheeppens and cowsheds of each family have also begun to have livestock again.

Compared with going out to work in the past, I can only buy pigs to kill when I come back at the end of the year. Now I have the ones I raise at home, so there is no need to go to Yang’s pig farm to pick.

Therefore, the pigs raised by the Yang family are sent to the slaughterhouse in the city, except for supplying to his son-in-law's farmhouse all year round, and are no longer sold to farmers.

I got up early this morning to kill pigs, which was to kill my own New Year pigs.

Every year, the Yang family would kill two big fat pigs, two to four or five sheep, and some chickens and ducks to celebrate the New Year.

And the livestock and poultry that were killed are not for takeaway.

The reason why I killed so many and didn’t take them out was because I kept them for gifts at the end of the year.

Among other things, Grandpa Yang Dongxu and the little grandpa gave half a pig, a sheep and a few chickens and ducks as gifts before the New Year. Get a few big fish and a few old turtles and send them over.

Then add a little more from each of the seven aunts, eight aunts, and grandparents and uncles. The last half of the two pigs is less than half.

There were a lot of people slaughtering pigs today, and five cauldrons were directly set up. The firecrackers hung up and hung up at dawn, and the killing didn't stop until after eleven o'clock in the morning, which was almost noon.

More than 70% of the residents in Yangjia Village have slaughtered pigs. If the days are better, if they don't slaughter a pig at the end of the year, they seem to be half shorter than other people.

In addition, there is a pig at home, and there is no need to spend money or feel bad about killing it. At the end of the year, more people will kill pigs.

At the same time, the merchants on the street make wishes every year. In addition to burning 100 catties of incense, a pig is the minimum standard for making wishes, and there are even more people who kill pigs.

However, although a lot of pigs were killed, there was not much bloody smell, because the pig blood was turned into ingredients in a large pot.

Except for the pig manure produced when cleaning the large intestine, and the pig hair that can't be used, there is no other wasted parts of the whole pig.

"That's all. Your sister also sent a lot of sausages and bacon. If you make too much, you won't be able to eat it all. If you hang it there, it will take up space." Yang's mother waved her hand, signaling Yang Dongxu, who was cutting the meat, to stop. Had a meat enema.

As the ingredients become more and more abundant, people are studying various delicacies more and more.

Whether it's enema or blood sausage, although they have been available for a long time, there were no such dishes in Yangjia Village before.

In the past, people were relatively poor, and the meat cut during the New Year was not enough to entertain visitors, let alone make bacon and sausages.

In the past few years, every family has become rich, and at the end of the year, pigs were slaughtered, so delicacies such as blood sausage, bacon, and sausage that were not cooked before began to appear on the tables of each family.

The Yang family killed two pigs, five sheep, and some chickens and ducks this year.

More than half of the pig's blood was made into blood sausage, and two large pots were made. In addition to the blood sausage, I also bought a meat grinder to make sausages. There are five large pots of pork and mutton sausages.

Four pots of pork sausage and one pot of mutton sausage. My own pig intestines are not enough, so I bought a few hanging pig intestines at extra cost, but the seller didn't charge any money, so I could only give the finished meat sausage to the other party for a while.

If it weren't for the pork belly and sheep belly to be saved for hot pot, I guess I would have to make some belly meat.

"If you don't make sausages anymore, you can borrow the meat grinder for my family." The general with a cigarette dangling from the side came over from nowhere.

While saying this in his mouth, he let out smoke to Yang Dongxu, Dad Yang and others.

Butchering pigs and making sausages, the Yang family came together, the grandparents and uncle's family came, plus the neighbors from the same village, almost a pack of cigarettes disappeared after a round of smoking.

"Come and help you carry it." Yang Dongxu lit a cigarette and put it in his mouth. He usually doesn't smoke.

But when he returned to the countryside at the end of the year, he would pick up cigarettes no matter they were handed over, and he also had cigarettes in his pocket.

"No, no, I can lift this thing by myself by a few kilograms." The general lit a cigarette and put it in his mouth, his eyes narrowed by the smoke, and said, "Are you okay tonight? Have a drink at my house."

"Go to my house. My mother lives in the courtyard all year round and is not very popular. After a while, I will say hello to Xiaowu and others, and I will bring my wife and children with me. We will open two or three tables in the evening. Warm the room." Yang Dongxu said with a smile.

I don't know if it is a psychological effect, the reason why the house is too big to live for a long time. , Even if I suddenly live in my own house, it always feels too shady.

I called a group of friends to open a few tables, and a group of children ran around chattering around the house. I immediately felt a different kind of warmth in the house, and it was very comfortable to live in.

The old man calls this popular!

"Okay, you can go to the greenhouse at night." The general teased, "Ma'am, I want to eat mutton sausage at night, please cook more."

"Okay, prepare more tonight, why don't you take a hanger home?"

"That's not necessary, just eat it, even eating and taking it is too much." The general smiled and shook his head, and moved the meat grinder to the other side, where his pigs just came out of the shedding pot and were very shaved. Clean and ready to disembowel.

"Why didn't General Lao Yueer come over today?" Yang Dongxu asked a little strangely as he glanced at the general's house.

Now the general's wife and children are all born. Although Lao Yue's family is not as noisy as before the marriage, every year in Yangjia Village, pigs are slaughtered after the stove sacrifice at the end of the year.

His annual gift for his father-in-law and mother-in-law doesn't need to be sent by the general, this uncle, just pinch this point, it's like pulling free New Year's goods, all kinds of things can be piled up in a cart full.

If the general's family kills a pig and doesn't bring it in, half of them will be dragged away by Lao Yue'er's family.

The entire Yangjia Village, or eight villages in a radius of ten miles, is the only one that is famous for this.
