Chapter 187 Making meat buns

Chapter 187. Making meat buns

As the days passed, it reached the time for the year end’s meat distribution.

The family’s two big plump pigs were also driven out early in the morning.

After breakfast, Da Wa, Er Wa, and San Wa wanted to watch the pig slaughter.

Little Su Cheng had the heart to follow.

"No. You are too young. The scene of killing pigs is not suitable for you to watch." San Wa coaxed him.

"I’m not afraid." Little Su Cheng persisted.

Because he often mingled with his elder brothers, his language skills developed pretty well.

"You’ll have nightmares after seeing it." Er Wa also said.

"I’m not afraid." Littel Su Cheng maintained.

But in the end, Little Su Cheng didn’t participate because he was still too small. He was only that big, no way was he allowed to watch.

However, those who were taken over Zhou Qing Bai had their eyes covered when the pig got killed. Da Wa covered San Wa’s eyes.

As for Er Wa, he half-covered his own eyes. His whole body was a little tense.

After a few pigs cried out one after another, the pigs were slaughtered.

Three pigs were killed in the village this year. Every household can receive a lot. Still, the most in-demand were the two pigs from Zhou Qing Bai’s family. They were really fat. Fat and strong.

Lin Qing He was able to get three jins more meat this year than in the previous year. It was from the work points she got as a teacher. Of course, there were also work points from raising two big pigs.

One giant pig’s head, seven or eight ribs, big bones. These were all the usual request.

Also, they didn’t leave out the large intestines, small intestines, and pork stomach.

The rest was fatty meat. Lin Qing He got a cut of seven jins of fatty meat. This had many people look on with envy. No one said anything about her.

If they had the ability, they would ask for it too.

Lin Qing He also asked for a lot of pork belly and lean meat since she got some ribs and the big bones at the beginning. These were third-class meat, which was the least valuable.

Lean meat was also considered as third-class meat.

Pork belly was considered second-class meat. First-class meat was naturally the fatty meat. Everyone labeled it the best meat.

Adding up these things, it was approximately 30 jins of meat.

Of course, this was because Father Zhou’s share was also included in here.

Even so, bringing back so much meat still aroused everyone’s envy.

But sometimes one can’t be envious.

Before, everyone didn’t expect much from Zhou Qing Bai’s family.

The phrase ’thirty years, river flow east, thirty years, river flow west’ wasn’t a lie.

How many work points does his family have now?

There was a work point from the two pigs. The fertilizer produced by the pigs also gained a work point. Zhou Qing Bai got ten work points. Father Zhou got eight work points. Lin Qing He also earned five work points. In addition to five work points, she also received 13 yuan in salaries. There were also subsidies like food coupons and fabric coupons.

Da Wa and Er Wa had grown up now. They would gather plenty of pigweeds after school and can earn one or two work points.

Even though Mother Zhou didn’t enter the field in the first half of the year, she would also scavenge for pigweed during the time when Zhou Xiao Mei had yet to deliver. Little Su Cheng had gotten bigger and ran behind San Wa like a tail. She didn’t need to take care of him. So she gained a good amount of work points.

So they got so much meat allocated this year.

Eldest Sister-in-law received four jins this year. Second Sister-in-law was the same. Third Sister-in-law’s share was less, only three jins or so.

It can’t be helped. She had a big belly this year. She only worked for the first half of the year and after that, she forced herself to keep going.

Of course, during the post-natal confinement in the latter half of the year, she ate well.

Su Da Lin never stingy in this area. He would bring eggs or a piece of meat and fish every time he came over,. That was why Third Sister-in-law was properly fed.

"Now the women in the village aren’t faring as well as her." It was Wang Ling who said this.

Since the incident at the old Ma’s house last time, Wang Ling lost face for a while. Regardless of what her in-laws said to the outside world, she knew exactly what the facts were.

She just happened to run into her brother-in-law when he was taking a bath in the river once. After seeing him butt naked, she found that he was better than her own man, so she got tempted.

And then one thing led to another and they rolled together.

But in the end, everyone at this time cherished their feathers.

Even as women, they understand Wang Ling’s difficulty and ran over to borrow from her fourth brother-in-law, the matter still wasn’t glorious.

For example, Second Sister-in-law had a good relationship with her before, but now she didn’t interact with her at all.

The others were the same. No one responded to Wang Ling’s words.

On the contrary, some idle men in the village encountered Wang Ling in private. There was never short of catcall toward her. Wang Ling was quite proud of this, but she refused in a decent manner on the surface.

Just don’t know if it was a true rejection or false rejection.

After Wang Ling received the cod shoulder, she curled her lips in dissatisfaction. So she followed her mother-in-law back with her own family’s share of meat.

There were also a few people who have a bad relationship with Wang Ling present. They started to gossip after seeing her leave.

"Acting like nobody knows that old Ma Family use ’borrow’ to cover her loose way to preserve that bit of reputation!"

"That so right. I saw her and Zhou He from Zhou Family together the day before yesterday. They were sending each other meaningful gaze!"

"Just one look, you’ll know she’s a bad bunch. Have you not heard that her eldest sister from her maternal family previously had an affair. What’s more, was caught on the spot!"

"My God, there was such matter?"

"What happened afterward?"

"..."

Perhaps someone found Wang Ling’s affair too disgusting and still dare be so rampant, a rumor started in the village at an unknown time. Rumor of Wang Ling’s eldest sister, Wang Cui’s past love affairs.

"San Ni’s mother, don’t interact with her anymore. It’s really shameful." Eldest Sister-in-law said to Second Sister-in-law after hearing about it.

If they didn’t live together, Eldest Sister-in-law wouldn’t be bothered to remind her.

Even though the family was divided, everyone was still in the same courtyard. Before, Wang Ling had came often to look for Second Sister-in-law.

Second Sister-in-law knew what was circulating in the village. Naturally, she felt extremely embarrassed and replied: "I’m not in contact with her anymore!"

Everyone in the family, no matter if it was the in-law family or the maternal family, they felt they lost face. Except for the person who was cheating.

Wang Ling didn’t feel it at all. What’s more, she had an unclear interaction with other bachelors in the village. Really didn’t know to repent.

Eldest Sister-in-law took in her response and dropped the matter.

After the meat was divided, everyone started to make some yummy food.

As for these matters in the village, Lin Qing He turned a deaf ear to it. Even when she heard Mother Zhou bring it up, Lin Qing He didn’t care.

She was in the middle of leading Zhou Qing Bai, Da Wa, Er Wa, San Wa, and Xiao Su Cheng on making buns.

This year, she came back with such a large cut of fatty meat and extracted three cans of oil. There was so much oil residue left.

So she chopped up these oil residues, and then made a meat bun with it with cabbage and pickled veg.

There were two flavors.

One was stuffed with oil residue and cabbage, and the other was stuffed with oil residue and pickled veg. No matter which one, it was very tasty.
