Explanation:

In "Everyday Use," we encounter a mother and her two daughters, Dee and Maggie. The mother in the story is a strong and hard worker, as she explains in these lines.

She tells us that she can kill and clean a hog in the same merciless way, which requires significant strength and hard work.
