Every household in the countryside used to kill pigs. What's the point of killing pigs?

When I was a child, I looked forward to the Spring Festival most, because I could hardly eat meat at ordinary times. Every new year, I will kill pigs at home and eat enough pork. In the past, as long as it was the twelfth lunar month, every household began to kill pigs, but there were many stresses on killing pigs, you know?

Pay attention to one, the time to kill pigs. Although people are busy killing pigs as soon as they enter the twelfth lunar month, they can't kill pigs for several days. First of all, they can't kill pigs on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. In rural areas, there is a custom of offering sacrifices on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. At this time, they can't see blood. In fact, you can't kill pigs on the fourth day of the Sun Sea and the Lunar New Year. The sun and the sea stand for pigs, and it is unlucky to die together.

Pay attention to two places to kill pigs. You can't choose the place to kill pigs in front of the church or around the cemetery, because killing pigs is very suffocating and not good for your family.

Pay attention to three, worship before killing pigs. Killing pigs in rural areas is a major event. Before killing pigs, you must burn incense and paper first. Today, the high-speed chef is going to my house to kill pigs. In addition, before killing pigs, the pig butcher will burn paper in the pigsty, which is to pray for the gods to let the pig's soul ascend to heaven.

Note 4: Share the pork with everyone after killing the pig. After killing pigs in every household, the pig butcher will pick a piece of meat and take it home to express his gratitude to the pig butcher for helping him kill pigs. In addition, pork should be sacrificed to the kitchen god and heaven and earth. In some places, pork is also given to relatives and friends, which means sharing happiness.

Although the enthusiasm of killing pigs in rural areas is not as good as before, the unique concern of killing pigs in every place has been passed down to this day. Now the killing of pigs in rural areas is slowly disappearing, people's living standards are high, and it is not so difficult to eat meat. Every household basically can't raise pigs, and they are all concentrated in farms. According to the regulations, private individuals cannot slaughter without authorization. So if the taste in memory is right, can you eat it? Do you have these pig killers there? Welcome to reply to the discussion.
