Chapter 160 Divide the Meat



Chapter 160 Divide the Meat

Liu Jingxue stared in amazement at the large basin that Zhang Guiying handed to her.

"Sister Guiying, are you sure you want me to use this to prepare the pig-killing dish?

This is not a bowl, this is a basin."

"My washbasin at home is not as big as this one."

Zhang Guiying said innocently, "This is a bowl."

"You usually use it to hold vegetables when cooking at home," Liu Jingxue said in disbelief.

"of course.

Since you are alone, I specially got a small one for you.

When you get there and see what other people have in their hands, you will know what a real basin is."

Liu Jingxue was a little embarrassed. "You really want me to use this to serve food? I can't finish it by myself."

“Who told you to finish your meal?

The butcher's dish is very oily, so people usually take it home, add some side dishes to it, and eat it for several meals."

Liu Jingxue followed Zhang Guiying to the cafeteria.

At this time, it would be an exaggeration to say that the cafeteria was packed with people. But almost everyone in the village who could go out was here.

Many people also held basins in their hands.

Liu Jingxue looked at the basins in their hands and compared them with the basins in her own vegetable basket. The basins in others' hands were basically two or three times bigger than hers.

Some people's basins are ridiculously large.

Liu Jingxue had reason to suspect that they might have brought the laundry basin from home.

Zhang Guiying pulled her sleeve and said, "See? I told you that others' would be bigger than yours."

After all, she was following her father's orders to invite Liu Jingxue over. Zhang Guiying brought her directly to the captain and said, "Dad, I called Liu Zhiqing for you."

"Xiaoxue is here, we will start dividing the meat soon."

After saying hello to the team leader, Liu Jingxue took Zhang Guiying away. After all, it was very busy there, so they should not get in the way.

Many villagers around saw Liu Jingxue and immediately gathered around to thank her.

Perhaps because the captain had previously told the villagers not to be too enthusiastic so as not to scare people, they did not act too presumptuous and just said a few simple words of thanks before leaving.

Instead, the children in the village came up to her one by one and asked her to describe the scene of killing the wild boar.

How could Liu Jingxue describe it? After all, in her opinion, she didn't put in any effort at all, so there was really nothing to say.

Besides, she wasn't thick-skinned enough to brag about herself without blushing or getting nervous.

Fortunately, most of the villagers gathered here, including the half-grown children rescued by Liu Jingxue.

When they heard someone asking Liu Jingxue about the process of killing the wild boar, they immediately ran over and described it vividly.

Liu Jingxue took the opportunity to escape.

Not long after she found a corner to stand in, Zhang Yingchun and Xia Lan came over.

There were no other people at the educated youth center behind them, so Liu Jingxue asked curiously, "Why are there only the two of you? Where are the others?"

Zhang Yingchun whispered, “Aren’t they going to sell vegetables for the villagers? They have been busy in the town these two days.

I didn’t get back until almost dark yesterday, and I set out for town early this morning.”

"You two are the only ones who didn't participate in the Youth League Point?"

Xia Lan nodded, "Yes, we were the only two who didn't participate."

Zhang Yingchun went to Liu Jingxue to confirm, "Xiaoxue, you really killed these six wild boars by yourself."

"With so many people watching, how could it be fake?" Liu Jingxue said.

Zhang Yingchun said excitedly, "You are so amazing.

If you have this ability, no one will dare to bully you in the future."

"It would be great if I could have half of your ability," Xia Lan also said.

Liu Jingxue didn't want to discuss this with you, so she changed the subject and said, "They ran around all day yesterday. How was the result? Did anyone successfully sell any vegetables?"

Xia Lan sneered, "It just started yesterday, how can it be so fast.

I guess they are worried about losing their business and are on guard against each other, so how could they possibly tell the truth to others?

Even if they sell it, they will probably say they didn’t sell it when they come back.”

"I think they are just bored. Neither of us is involved, so there is nothing for them to hide from us," Zhang Yingchun said disdainfully.

Xia Lan said, "This is normal.

What if they tell us and we let it slip and other people hear it?

I tell you, in my opinion, there will be more arguments about this matter in the future.

After all, there are only a few public institutions in the town, and with so many people, there must be some seriously ill ones.

By then, some deals will be successful, and some will not. The unsuccessful ones will surely blame the successful ones for stealing their business.”

"possible.

You two should stay out of this, and don't even ask, lest someone says you had a hand in it." Liu Jingxue reminded.

Zhang Yingchun quickly shook her head, "Then I won't ask them about their vegetable sales anymore, even if you kill me."

Seeing that the two of them were empty-handed, Liu Jingxue asked curiously, "Why didn't you bring anything to prepare the pig-killing dishes?

Nor did I take anything to hold the meat.”

Xia Lan explained, "We two don't dare to be the boss at the educated youth center.

When we take the things back, someone might suspect that we have withheld them.

So to be on the safe side, the two of us decided not to get involved.

I'll tell the team leader later and ask him to keep the copy for the educated youths and have him deliver it."

As they were talking, the brigade cadres agreed on the method of distributing the wild boar meat, and they rang a gong to gather everyone together to prepare to divide the meat.

The captain stood at the front with a loudspeaker.

"I don't need to explain more about how this wild boar came here today, right?" the captain asked.

"We know. It was Liu Zhiqing who killed these wild boars and saved many children in the team," the villagers below shouted.

The team leader said, "So we can eat meat today, and the children in our team are safe and sound, all thanks to Liu Zhiqing."

The villagers shouted "Thank you, Liu Zhiqing" one after another.

After the villagers shouted for a while, the team leader reached out and pressed down, signaling everyone to stop.

"It has always been the rule in our village that those who hand in their prey will get a larger share of the meat. Everyone knows this, so there is no need to explain it.

And Liu Zhiqing saved so many children in the team this time. If he gave more, I'm sure no one would be interested."

"No problem. If anyone dares to object, I will beat him to death."

"That's right. Liu Zhiqing saved so many children, and she killed all the wild boars. Let alone a bigger share, I would have no problem even if she gave it all to me."

This statement has attracted many people's approval.

The captain said, "Just give it all to Liu Zhiqing, after all, it's against the rules.

Besides, she can’t finish all the meat by herself.”

"Several of us village officials have discussed it and decided to kill six wild boars, including two small ones.

They gave all the meat of a small wild boar, weighing about fifty pounds, to Liu Zhiqing.

Since she was new here, they gave her two large wild boar skins and asked her to make winter equipment.

Do you agree or not? "

There was a chorus of “agreements” from below.

“The rest of the net meat is 1543 kilograms.

Take out 343 kilograms of pig blood and offal to make the pig-killing dish and share it with the whole village.

The other 1200 kilograms were divided among Liu, the other villagers and the educated youth working at the educated youth centers, with each person getting 0.8 kilograms of pork.

This time, we won’t deduct anyone’s work points when we distribute the meat.”

Someone below shouted, "Captain, what about the pig's head, pig's feet, and bones? How should we divide them?"

“Those things can’t be shared equally among everyone, and some people like certain things and some don’t, so they won’t be shared for free.

If you want something, you can exchange it with work points, one work point for 3 jin.

As for the pig skin, it will still be exchanged according to the previous village rules.”

Secretary Xu took over and said, "Does anyone have any objection to this allocation method?"

The villagers all expressed that they had no objection, and the two educated youth representatives at the only educated youth site remained silent.

"Then give her Liu Zhiqing's meat first.

Separate the meat for slaughtering pigs and hand it over to the kitchen to prepare the slaughtering dishes.

Each family sends a representative to line up here to receive the meat, and the others go to help. Everyone is still waiting to eat the pig-killing dish in the evening."
