In the morning, I drove from Dali to Meichang Village in Xiangyun County to pick up my parents and elders, and then drove to my uncle's house in Cunde Village in Xiangyun County to eat pig-killing rice. My parents are getting old, and they don't go out much when they are too far away. This time I went to pick them up specially, and I wanted them to go to my aunt's house to have a good time.
After lunch at my aunt's house, I drove my parents and elders to the places they visited when they were young. There are "Bailongtan" village, "Cunde Village" inner and outer camps, etc. Among them, the "flushing water generator" in "Cunde Village" was the most impressive to them, but unfortunately they did not find it. I saw that in various natural villages, the roads are clean and tidy, some policy propaganda is eye-catching, and there is a new atmosphere of new countryside everywhere.
During the slack season in winter, there are more people getting married and holding ceremonies in rural areas, and it is also a good time to kill pigs and eat pig rice.

Pig-killing rice is mainly made of fresh pork, supplemented by processing fresh seasonal vegetables from some rural vegetable fields. This time I ate pig rice, the most impressive dish was the improved Xiangyun "raw hide", which is different from the "raw hide" of the Bai people in Dali. The way of eating here is to fry the raw pork and cut it into shreds. Find a good piece of raw pork, scrape it off slowly with a kitchen knife, mix the two kinds of pork together, add seasonings and mix well, serve it on the table and eat it. Among the pig-killing rice, there are stir-fried pork liver, small fried pork (with the smell of firewood), crispy pork, tamales and ribs, stewed radish with ribs, "pig blood boiled large intestine", etc.
A simple and kind old woman, I saw her busy all day long, and never sat down to rest. Whenever the kitchen prepares a big dish, I always make some in a small bowl for me to taste. The generous and honest aunt will toast every table during the banquet, and the aunt who likes to be lively will bring laughter there.
My aunt's family also killed two new year pigs this year. Looking at the pigs piled up in the house, the happiness of the year suddenly filled my heart. Before leaving, my aunt prepared some pork for us to take away. The ones given to my parents were estimated to be more than 20 catties of pork, and two pork hearts; the ones given to me also had more than 10 catties of pork. I said, "I want less, I haven't finished eating last year." The generous uncle said that he was ready Take it back with you.
After dinner at my aunt's house, I sent my parents and elders back to Meichang Village, Xiangyun County. A round of bright moon rises slowly from the "Lao Mao Mountain" in the east of Meichang Village, and the sky gradually darkens, facing the moonlight and returning to Xiaguan. On the way back, my mind was full of beautiful moments of eating pig-killing rice.
