It's another year to kill pigs. What does the phrase "butchers don't kill pigs with five claws" mean? what do you think?

Seeing this question raised by the subject, I can't help but think that a pig we raised last year was a five-claw pig. The funniest thing is that this pig was not found to be a five-claw pig until it was killed. What exactly is going on? Please listen to me slowly.

The pig was given to us by someone else, and our family bought his pig. After buying it back, only the smallest and thinnest pig was left. The owner thought it was occupied and sent it to us. We took it home with other pigs without looking carefully. Take it home and give it appetizers, and then drive it away. Anyway, all kinds of tossing (cooking, feeding glutinous rice porridge, etc. ). Later, the pig grew up slowly. Until last summer, pigs also gained more than 200 kilograms. It was originally intended to be kept until the end of the year. As a result, it didn't live up to expectations, and its feet were cut off in the pigsty (pigsty made of stone with gaps), so it couldn't stand up to eat. Other pigs can step on it, so they changed their pigsty and gradually lost weight. It was really hard to turn back, so I invited the butcher home. When the butcher saw that the pig's feet had been cut off, he wanted to lower the price. A catty was one yuan less than buying other pigs to survive. Later, we thought we were going to buy meat anyway, so we killed ourselves to eat meat. So I sent the butcher home to kill pigs.

The butcher is a cousin of mine. He came after 6 o'clock, and several of us pulled the pig out of the pigsty. Press it on the pig-killing pier again, and uncle's pig-killing technology is good, and it can be done at once. After the killing, uncle sat on the stool by the door to catch his breath and smoke. He just lit a cigarette and took a drag. Right there, he said, hey, is this a five-legged pig? My mother said, I'm afraid not. I haven't found it for so long. As a result, as we approached. God, it's really a five-legged pig. There is an extra finger on both front feet. It was the first time I really saw a five-legged pig with many fingers on its feet (because there are several kinds of five-legged pigs. I'll talk about this later. )

My uncle took a deep breath of his cigarette and said, I killed it without knowing it. If I had found out that it was a five-legged pig, I certainly wouldn't have killed it. We quickly made it clear that this was really not found. We also invited other butchers to buy them at home. As a result, we didn't sell it because the price was not negotiated. After the broken foot, we didn't find it when we changed pigs. You said it was a pig with five claws, so we just looked at it carefully. My mother-in-law even swore to him that we really didn't know it had been raised for so long. Ladies and gentlemen, I said it sentence by sentence. Later, my uncle said, well, I didn't find it before anyway, so let's just forget it. My mother-in-law also said, yes, it worked. After so long, I'm going to be a pig at the end of the year. The result is still not as fierce as me. Forget it. Later, I went to the street to buy a piece of red cloth, put it on my uncle's shoulder as a celebration for him, and then packed 100 yuan of water.

In fact, as farmers and butchers, they are no strangers to five-claw pigs. Careful distinction between five-claw pigs will make a difference. Five-claw pigs should be divided into five claws in the sky and five claws in the ground. The difference between heaven's five claws is that it is a spin that grows on the back, not a long finger, and the spin should be divided into front and back. The one that grows on the back of the front leg is called Tianwuzhao, which is called the fiercest. The part near the hind leg is called inversion. We have a saying here: the inverted spin looks like a bull. It means that this is enough, and pigs will grow bigger in the future. The five claws of the earth are on the feet and on the pig's trotters, so how long is a finger?

The reason why farmers don't want to raise pigs with five claws and butchers don't want to kill pigs with five claws. That is, the five-claw pig was reincarnated as a human being. Killing it will bring bad luck, bad luck, bad things and so on. In fact, in rural areas, five-claw pigs are unlucky. People often talk about five-claw pigs and their faces change greatly. Will say, oh, that pig can't be fed, can't be raised, and it's unlucky to raise it. If someone accidentally raises a five-claw pig, no matter what happens, they can contact the five-claw pig. If farmers raise pigs with five claws, they are not only worried that it will bring bad luck, but also worried that they will not be sold at that time. Even if a brave butcher comes to buy them, they will keep the price down.

In fact, I think it depends on how I look at the five-claw pig in my heart. Just like the pig in my house last year, we didn't even mention it or think about it, pretending it didn't happen. Especially those who have their own sows to breed pigs, claw-free pigs are really common. Some people throw away their newborn pigs with five claws, which means throwing away bad luck. However, some people don't believe this, and they also have five-legged pigs. I have seen pig farms with pigsty inside. They are all five-legged pigs and upside-down pigs, which are still very good.

My neighbor's uncle used to kill pigs. When I was a child, almost everyone in the village killed pigs and sheep through his hands, and he handled it neatly. There is an old saying: "If you walk too much at night, you will inevitably encounter strange things." . Grandpa has been killing pigs for so many years, and it has been at least 30 years since he took over the pig killing skills of the old butcher in the village when he was young.

In the Jianghu where pigs are killed, he was shivering when he first saw the "Golden Pig" with five claws. I'm afraid the old people in the village say that pigs are cloven-hoofed animals. A pig's foot has four claws, while a pig with five claws is a bit special. It's unlucky to kill this kind of pig. Moreover, his master once told him some mysterious stories: it is an unwritten rule in the industry that pigs are reincarnated into golden dragons with five claws, and those who kill pigs cannot be killed. So, when he first met a pig with five claws, he had no choice but to do so. Because his father keeps pigs, he buys piglets very cheaply. He doesn't believe in ghosts and heresies, but he won't sell them if he keeps them, so he has to kill bacon for the New Year. Uncle is a dutiful son, so he can only break the rules set by his master and kill the golden pig with five claws.

Great, whoever killed Nianzhu in Shili Eight Alley nearby will come to him to solve it as long as there is a golden pig with five claws. Grandpa thinks he has broken the commandment. Killing a pig with five claws is killing, and killing ten pigs is killing. Anyway, he didn't know how many such pigs he had killed in the end. During the Chinese New Year, he was very busy every day ... and gained a reputation for helping others in Shili Baxiang. In this case, until the villagers stopped raising pigs and were not allowed to kill pigs privately, he closed his knife and quit the river and lake of killing pigs.

At present, this uncle is 86 years old and has been living alone with his grandmother. He has two sons and one daughter, both of whom live alone and have complete grandchildren. Although it is an ordinary farmhouse, there is nothing wrong with a harmonious and beautiful family. Therefore, it seems that the superstition that five claws can't kill pigs doesn't hold water at all in my cognition. According to that statement, isn't it a "sin" for anyone to eat the meat of a golden pig with five claws? Has anyone eaten? Nobody knows. Do you think that's the reason? That's just a superstition. Let's have a look and smile.

Hello, this question is my answer. Personally, I think there must be a reason not to kill five-claw pigs during the Chinese New Year. Five-claw pigs really exist. I saw what i saw. I really can't kill it. My uncle kills pigs. After killing for more than ten years, I really met a pig with five claws. He didn't believe that a pig with five claws couldn't be killed, but he was killed in the end. My uncle died that year.

"360 lines, each line is the best." Since ancient times, all walks of life have their own rules and regulations, which may not be clear to people engaged in this industry. Therefore, there is also a saying that "interlacing is like a mountain".

I don't know if you've heard the saying "carpenters are long and blacksmiths are short, masons are not long or short". Do you know what this means? What do you mean by "butchers don't kill pigs with five claws"?

In fact, these are some industry rules, and these are the experiences handed down by the ancients.

My father is a carpenter. As long as I can remember when I was a child, he used his spare time to make furniture for other people's homes. He can make beds, tables, chairs and stools. Influenced by his father since childhood, his father also taught a sentence: "Carpenters don't cut corners." This means that carpenters don't use exactly the same wood, usually a few centimeters more. Because carpenters used to make furniture with wooden wedges and tenons. Wood is easy to correct when it is assembled, so it is an experience to add more materials in order to avoid the problem of lax assembly. For craftsmen and masons, iron blocks can be heated and tempered, and stones need to be sewn tightly, because there is almost no repairability, so "long carpenters and short blacksmiths are masons" means this.

Speaking of "butchers don't kill pigs with five claws", this is the rule of the pig killing industry. Because killing pigs is killing life after all, in ancient times, Buddhism had a deep influence on people at that time. "God has the virtue of good life", and everyone is familiar with it.

Do you know how many claws a pig has on its feet? Generally speaking, people with five claws on their feet are considered primates, including us. There is also the totem of the Chinese nation, "Five Clawed Dragons". So, if you kill a beast with five claws, then people think it is unlucky. Just like someone said before, when you see a two-headed snake or a crowned snake head, you should avoid it quickly. Others said it would be bad luck to see these.

Therefore, these statements are superstitious. In fact, from a scientific point of view, animals have one or two more claws, which should be caused by genetic mutation. Just like when I was in primary school, my classmate had a girl with six fingers. She was often laughed at at at that time, so I think she volunteered at that time. Actually, this really shouldn't be.

Generally speaking, "a butcher doesn't kill a pig with five claws" is a saying handed down by the ancients, because people think it is an unlucky thing. In fact, who can control gene mutation? Now, there is no need to listen to this. After all, this is just a superstition in the past. What did you say?/Sorry?

Today is the 19th day of the twelfth lunar month,1.13rd day in the solar calendar, and the Spring Festival will arrive in a few days. The countryside also ushered in a lively scene. After all, at the end of the year, everyone is busy planning new year's goods, and there are also many farmers working in other places in the countryside who are also concentrated at home at this time. Everyone is also ready to immerse themselves in the celebration of the Spring Festival. Because the Spring Festival is a time for everyone to eat and drink.

Before, I still remember when I was a child, at the end of each year, people in the village would go to slaughter Nian pig. Some farmers have raised pigs for nothing this year, and they will serve mankind by the end of the year. You can't solve it yourself if you want to kill the pig. Just like the village, almost all of them are butchers, and they are good at killing pigs. So who is it? For example, some give some money, some give pigs to butchers, and butchers can have a good meal. Then there is a saying in the countryside that "butchers don't kill pigs with five claws". What is this sentence?

For this proverb, the article only says the second half, because this proverb also has the first half. The complete proverb is "Carpenters don't trim edges, butchers don't kill pigs with five claws", so what does this sentence mean? For this carpenter, it means that there are several craftsmen, large and small, in almost all villages in the countryside. After all, in the countryside, carpenters used to be popular. Who can't care about food? Therefore, rural people also respect these craftsmen, but everything has rules. If you have no wood, the carpenter can't do anything. If the wood you gave is not good, say that the carpenter made the suitable wood himself. Otherwise, if the right wood is given, the woodwork made by the carpenter will be greatly discounted and unsightly. Therefore, carpenters used to pay attention to word of mouth, and you can't ruin your reputation because of your good wood.

So "butchers don't kill pigs with five claws" is well-intentioned, right? Pigs are cloven-hoofed animals. As all pig farmers know, a pig's hoof has four fingers, but rarely five. Sometimes butchers don't kill five-fingered pigs when they see them, because it is said that five-fingered pigs are sacred and can't be hurt, so many butchers pass them on from generation to generation. Tell future generations to show mercy when they meet a pig with five claws, so this is what the butcher means by killing the pig with five claws.

There is an old saying in the countryside, "Carpenters don't do the same thing, butchers don't kill pigs."

"。 Line 360 has its own rules and taboos. In the former countryside, many people would believe it and strictly abide by the rules of all walks of life.

For example, when it comes to the two industries of "carpenter" and "butcher", there is a saying that "a carpenter doesn't do the same thing, and a butcher doesn't kill a pig with five claws". Why do you say that? What does the old saying in the countryside mean? Many people really don't know why they don't ask the older generation in the countryside. Even if you look at the literal meaning, they only know one and don't know the other. Today, the old saying in the countryside came and said.

Carpenters don't trim edges. The job of a carpenter seems simple, but in fact it is difficult to learn to be a teacher. There is an old saying in the countryside that "it takes a thousand days to hammer and learn the morning saw", and there is an old saying in the countryside that "it takes three years to axe and plane", which shows that it is not easy for carpenters to learn.

1. Carpenters don't trim.

Woodworking is a very popular job in rural areas. I think it is compared with the current civil servants, but as a carpenter, you must have skills. If you only know the basic skills, you will probably be deducted a lot of wages and waste a lot of natural materials, and you are not worthy of the title of carpenter!

Therefore, when sawing wood, we must first analyze and measure the size, and then leave the size to be sawed longer according to the data. This is a real carpenter and a real artist. The sawed finished or semi-finished products are also perfect.

Carpenters rarely cut materials like saws, because they know that poor sawing or different sizes of materials will bring a lot of trouble to the follow-up work, so according to their past experience, the sawed materials will be longer than the actual size.

I think the implication of this sentence is to tell us not to be too rigid, to be flexible and to leave room!

Besides, butchers don't kill pigs with five claws. There is another legend in the countryside. Ordinary pigs have four claws, but few have five claws. So many people will think that the five-claw pig is a very strange animal, and killing it is not good for people, only bad. "The butcher doesn't kill the pig with five claws" is easier to understand. Generally, a normal pig has four legs, and each leg has four claws. "Five-claw pig" refers to a pig with five claws on its pig's foot. The ancients thought such pigs were ominous and should never be killed. At that time, butchers were most afraid of meeting pigs with five claws and didn't dare to kill them. Because people have five fingers, and people think that pigs with five claws are reincarnated, at that time, if a sow had five claws, it could not be kept. And if you accidentally buy a pig with five claws, it will also be released into nature and cannot be killed.

In fact, this proverb is unreasonable. Just like some people have "six fingers" and some pigs have "five claws", it was just a deformity at that time. These are normal deformities and will not bring bad luck to others. The ancients thought that a pig with five claws could not be killed. On the one hand, this kind of pig was rare in the past, on the other hand, it was unclear about this phenomenon and couldn't figure out the reason, so it added some superstitious colors.

There is no scientific explanation for the former rural people, so we can only say that we believe in consensus. A five-claw pig is an ominous thing, a blessing pig or a demon pig. If you are taboo, let it go. If you are not taboo, eat or sell it. However, according to the data, the staff of the epidemic prevention station once explained that the phenomenon of five-claw pigs is only a "physical change" in the shape of pigs, and there is nothing to make a fuss about. Believe in science!

In 20 18, the value of the second brother has been skyrocketing, which makes people pay close attention to the second brother. No, the Spring Festival is coming soon, and it's the season of killing pigs again. The price of this meat is so high that no one can throw away their domestic pigs in vain. However, there is a saying in the rural butcher industry that "butchers don't kill pigs with five claws". If there really is a five-claw pig at home, can you not kill it?

Every industry has its own special customs, which are called industry customs. In the past, the profession of butcher was often looked down upon or cursed by some people who turned to Buddhism to kill things. If the butcher encounters any natural or man-made disasters, people often talk about "retribution" first. Therefore, butchers themselves are often very careful when killing pigs and sheep, and they also set some rules for themselves, trying not to collide with evil spirits, so as to avoid accidents and make people laugh. For example, don't kill pigs in Rihai, because Rihai is a pig's own festival. Today's phrase "a butcher doesn't kill a pig with five claws" is also very particular in the butcher industry.

Killing pigs is a business in itself, so be careful. Don't kill five-claw pigs, because five-claw pigs are very rare, which makes people feel that these five-claw pigs are different. The pig butcher himself will stay away from animals with rare phenomena. Some places say that these pigs with five claws are monsters. Whoever kills the pigs with five claws and eats pork with five claws will die of sudden illness. Some places say that these five-legged pigs are people. Because pigs are cloven-hoofed animals with four claws, while humans have five toes and five fingers. Imagine that killing pigs is a business in itself. If you kill a dead pig, won't you get more karma?

Because of these statements, from ancient times to the present, once the owner found that the pig fed at home had five claws, he generally didn't raise them, but no one wanted to sell them because they couldn't kill them. They usually drove them out of the house and let them wander outside and wait for death. If you do, and you can't kill yourself, the invited butchers often dare not kill them. It's no use feeding them.

However, not all butchers dare to kill pigs with five claws. But in order to avoid bad luck, even the butcher who dares to kill a pig with five claws will do some necessary work in advance. In their view, the reincarnation of a pig with five claws means that there must be evil in the last life, otherwise how could it become a pig in this life? Although I am innocent in my life, I want to pay for the crimes I committed in my last life, just like the sheep had the original sin. This pig was originally used to kill wood. Therefore, even if people are reincarnated, they can still be killed, but there are still some etiquette before slaughter. Generally, people who dare to kill a pig with five claws will ask a Taoist priest to do Dojo to cross over for the pig. During the slaughter, the main family must keep burning paper and chanting. The butcher must also wear a red hat, cinnabar on his face, red clothes to ward off evil spirits, wrap the blade with red paper and bow around. Finally, he can use the knife. Only when the courtesy is reciprocated, the five-claw pig will no longer struggle and resist, and can only look forward to the afterlife and will not collide with the pig killer.

In fact, these are based on people's superstitious thoughts in the past, and now no one believes in these evil things. Because pigs have five claws, just like people have three legs, it is a phenomenon of biological variation, but this is a biological change in the shape of pigs, which will not affect the health of pigs, and its meat can be eaten like normal pork. Now it is forbidden for individuals to kill pigs, but they are all killed by mechanized assembly lines in slaughterhouses, no matter how many claws you have!

Therefore, the second brother should pay attention, no matter how many claws you change, as long as you are fattened by farmers, you will never escape the fate of being stabbed. Farmers don't kill you, butchers don't recognize your previous life, but you are a pig in this life!

Of course, at the end of the year, the countryside is full of joy and excitement. Kill pigs and sheep, make tofu, make blood cakes and celebrate the New Year together.

"Butcher doesn't kill (five-claw pig)" is a proverb that has been circulated for thousands of years, which means that there is still a finger on the pig's foot called (five-claw pig). Pork fat is yellow, but pork fat of five-claw pig is white. Legend has it that people in rural areas are reincarnated and become butchers who kill pigs with five claws, which is unlucky in the future. When the butcher killed the five-claw pig with a sharp knife, the pig held the butcher's knife with a pair of front feet. It is a sin to kill a pig with five claws, so the butcher doesn't want to kill it. thank you

However, there are (five pigs) in the world and there is no surplus.

, so kill.

I am a person who loves the countryside. Let me answer this question. In fact, there is also the first half of this sentence, "carpenters don't do the same thing, butchers don't kill pigs." In fact, the first half of this sentence is easier to understand, and the second half is somewhat superstitious.

To put it simply, the first half of the sentence "Carpenters don't do the same thing" means that when carpenters do work for other people's homes, the main family must not "do the same thing" in wood preparation, which will make the carpenter very embarrassed. Do it. In case something goes wrong, it will be very troublesome to find the same materials. Don't do this. The work has been taken over. Honesty is here, carpenters will say hello before work and need to do something. The last sentence comes from the practice of life, and everyone can understand it well and feel very reasonable.

The second half of the sentence "butchers don't kill pigs with five claws" is a bit superstitious. Pigs are artiodactyls, and each foot has four toes, which should be normal. If a pig suddenly has five toes, it may be the butcher's taboo. He thinks that pigs are strange, not normal pigs, and may feel that they have a special mission in this world. He doesn't kill such a pig because the butcher thinks it is unlucky.

Actually, how can I put it? It is rare for some animals not to play cards according to common sense, but it is related to many factors, some are genetic, some are ruminating, and some are due to diseases and other reasons. Pigs may have five toes for various reasons, but this is just a growth phenomenon. Although the probability is not high, it often happens.

In the past, there was a lot of concern. Butchers don't kill five-claw pigs because they insist on some problems in their careers, thinking that failure to observe may cause trouble and be unfavorable to their careers, so they don't kill this kind of pigs with abnormal growth. Now it is estimated that few such pigs have done this before, so it is inseparable from people's ignorance of things at that time, but now science has not said that such five-legged pigs can't be eaten, so people don't think so.

Based on the above analysis, we think that the butcher's failure to kill the five-claw pig is only caused by people's lack of understanding of some problems in the past, which has no scientific reason and is only a psychological comfort to the butcher.

In our hometown, there is a custom that butchers don't kill five-fingered pigs, which means that the four paws of a pig are called five-fingered pigs, no matter how long the fingers of the pig grow in front of or behind the paws. Five-finger pig is described as: people have changed in the last generation, so the butcher will not kill no matter how much money he gives, because it is a custom everywhere. If the butcher kills Finger Pig without knowing it, the butcher will ask the owner to apologize! If you don't apologize, the butcher will hate the owner of Finger Pig. It is unlucky to kill a five-finger pig. We don't know the details, but there is also a five-fingered pig in a village that others didn't find when raising pigs. Only after the butcher came to kill him did he find out. What a sigh. A lot of unpleasant things really happened at home that year, some of them were bloody. These are our local older generation.
