Chapter Fifty-Eight: An Egg Thief
When Ju An arrived at Lewistown Airport to pick up his checked luggage, he startled the old Thomas who came to pick him up, and the old Thomas joked: "Ann, aren't you going to move the whole of San Francisco."
Ju An said: "I just bought some food, all of which were bought in Chinese supermarkets, not in Lewistown."
Thomas carried a few large boxes with Ju An onto the GMC, and then thought about it and said to Ju An: "There is no Chinese supermarket in Lewistown, but there must be one in Grand Falls, and I have been there a few times, and the money you consigned from San Francisco is enough to buy a few tanks of gasoline, and it is enough to go back and forth from Grand Rapids City for a dozen times."
Ju An thought for a moment, then patted his head and said, "Damn! Why did I forget about Great Falls, look at my brain, I think Lewiston doesn't, Great Falls is much bigger than Lewistown, there must be Chinese supermarkets, it's a loss, it's a loss."
Old Thomas said with a smile: "Next time you want to buy these, go to the Great Falls City, there are many Chinese restaurants, there must be Chinese supermarkets, I didn't hear that you want to buy these things, I heard that I will remind you."
"I also bought it on the spot, and it took me a long time to do the consignment, hey, my brain can't turn around," Ju An said with annoyance.
The two men put their things in the back seat, Juan went into the cab, and old Thomas sat in the passenger seat. The two men drove towards the ranch.
When I returned to the ranch and unloaded things below, I surprised everyone again, and then my mother opened a few boxes and saw that she bought ten catties of tofu alone, but fortunately the tofu here is the kind of vacuum-packed hard plastic box, otherwise it would have been crushed into tofu puree.
Mom hurriedly vacated the space of the refrigerator, put some easily perishable things, what tofu, dried silk, fried tofu messy soy products accounted for more than half, and finally the refrigerator was full, as well as domestic yuba, daylily These things were not put in, you must know that the refrigerator in Ju'an's house is a large refrigerator with double doors and a height of one person, a refrigerator and a large wardrobe are almost the same, still can't put these things, fortunately there is a little left, my mother is ready to eat at noon, as for the dry goods bought, Stuff like chili sauce, Mom and Sister put it in the kitchen cupboard.
When I looked at the clean-up, Ju An went back to his room, took a shower and changed his clothes, and by the way, he put the clothes that he had taken to his brother's house to change in the past few days into the laundry basket, and when he was brought downstairs, his sister took the basket and let Ju An be busy with his own, and his sister helped wash the clothes, not to mention that his mother and sister came to Ju'an to live comfortably, there were people to cook food every day, and there were people to wash clothes, I really wanted my mother and sister to live here, but unfortunately it was about to be September, and my sister and brother-in-law had to go to work, Ran Ran should also go to school, Tongtong is also going back to China, it won't be long before this big house is left alone, Ju An thought regretfully.
As soon as Ju An wanted to go out, his mother stopped Ju An: "Sanzi, go to the pond to see if the ducks and geese are laying eggs again, there are a few things that always don't lay eggs in the nest, they like to lay eggs in the grass, if I didn't accidentally find it once, I don't know, you go to the pond and look carefully."
Ju An agreed, and then asked, "Where are Ran Ran and Tongtong, as well as their father and brother-in-law?" Why didn't you see them".
Mom said: "What kind of technology or something is held in Little Jerry's school, I don't know if I can invite friends to go, Little Jerry invited Ran Ran and Tongtong to go, and now the four little guys are going to go everywhere in waves, in addition to Wu Song, Tiger Head and Garlic Head have no such treatment, stay at home, your father and your brother-in-law are piggyback, mobile wallets."
My sister smiled next to her and said, "People are holding math and technology meetings, and many little ones are going today, and Jerry's father and mother are going."
"Then did you tell your father and brother-in-law, foreigners are generally AA system, just pay for yourself," Ju An asked.
My sister nodded and said, "I know, I reminded them a long time ago, there is no problem, now Ran Ran's English is basically stammering and can say a few words."
Ju'an nodded, and went out to prepare the horse, and when he came to the door of the house, the tiger head and the garlic head wagked their tails to meet them, and when they walked to the door of the stable, they whistled, and it didn't take long for the bean grass to run over with the snowflakes, and prepared a saddle for the bean grass, and the tiger head and the garlic head were brought on, and the bean grass ran in the direction of the pond.
Far away from the pond, I heard the roar of the egg and the Sith, the tiger head and the garlic head also followed the bark, stepped up the horse to take a look, and found that the egg and the Sith were chasing a fox, the fox was cunning around the circle, the egg and the Sith turned around the big turn is not as flexible as the fox, every time to hit, the fox began to go around a small circle, get rid of the big mouth of the two dogs, and when the tiger head and the garlic head joined the battle group, it didn't take long to be surrounded by four dogs, followed by the fox was pressed to the ground by the egg, The bloody mouth of the preserved egg was also stuck on the neck of the fox, and the Sith and the tiger head garlic were sitting around the fox, looking at Ju An screaming, Ju An looked at the fox that was not very big, and it was full of beautiful, light red fur, and there was no blood on it, and suddenly the garlic and the tiger head and the Sith barked wildly again, and ran towards the small forest not far away, at this time the fox in the mouth of the preserved egg immediately struggled, but its struggle was no threat to the preserved egg at all, and after a while, Tiger Garlic and Sith each came over with a little fox in their mouths, and the little ones were only a little bigger, and they didn't struggle at all in the mouths of the three big dogs.
The big fox in the mouth of the preserved egg barked more sharply, and Ju An saw that the good guy's family had been caught, so he said to a few dogs: "Let it go, it's pitiful." The four dogs put down the fox family in their mouths, but they still gathered around, the old fox escaped, and did not escape, barking around the little fox, and the little fox also barked, if the movie is played, Ju An is a standard villain, with a bunch of dog legs, surrounding the poor people, the kind that robs people's things.
Ju An said to the four doglegs, "Come here." Saying that, he took a few steps back with the four loyal dogs, and the old fox seemed to understand what Ju An meant, and walked in the direction of the woods with the little fox, and turned around and yelled at Ju An twice, as if to thank him.
As soon as Ju An wanted to sigh, Sith took out a duck egg from a haystack, and there was a wet little paw silver on it, definitely not a dog's paw, the marks of the four dog's legs were much larger than this, it turned out that this family of foxes wanted to steal my duck eggs, Ju An touched the heads of several dogs one by one, as a reward.
Then he put the duck eggs under a few noses, sniffed them, and said, "Don't look at the restless one, and lay the eggs outside, find them all out for me." When the four dogs had received the order, they barked twice and went along the pond to find eggs.
Ju An crossed Erlang's legs, made a few plastic chairs, humming a little tune, quite a bit of Huang Shiren who grabbed Xi'er. These chairs were originally used by Ju'an as folding chairs, but later the elder Thomas saw the trouble he brought every time, so he suggested putting a few plastic chairs here, and Ju'an now feels that it is really much more convenient.
Just thinking about it, I saw the preserved egg coming over with his tail wagging his tail, and a duck egg in his mouth, rubbing the preserved egg's head and praising it: "Good job, I really didn't feed you in vain, and then look for it." Then the preserved egg shook and went back to work.
A total of four duck eggs were found before and after, and then I went to the poultry house to see that there were also seven duck eggs, these dozen ducks are really powerful, when I touched the duck eggs, I saw a big goose incubating eggs, and I saw Ju An and called down, and immediately a goose came over, trying to drive Ju An away, and was immediately scared back by a barking of the eggs.
For this kind of chess soft and afraid of hard quality of urban management, Ju'an is deeply despised. Carrying the duck eggs, he appeased the preserved eggs and the Sith, took the other two dog-legged tiger heads and garlic heads, praised the bean grass, and returned home.
When he handed the duck eggs to his mother, he asked, "Mom, how many duck eggs have you saved, and the number is enough to pickle a batch?"
My sister said: "It's more than forty, your ducks and geese are really amazing, they are bigger than the family, the geese have begun to lay eggs so early, and the ducks are basically one a day."
Ju An asked, "The goose is already very big, I don't see anything strange."
Mom said: "The average goose is sixteen or seventeen pounds, our geese are estimated to be more than twenty pounds, your father also said that he has never seen such a big goose, and fiercely, last time your father saw a fox was chased away by a few geese, if it weren't for the preserved egg to look at your dad and dare not touch the egg."
Ju An touched his head and thought: Looking at the shape of the tiger head guys, could it be that the things raised in the space are bigger than the outside? As for how old the goose is, Ju An doesn't know, when he was sensible, the whole family moved to the county seat, where is there a place to raise geese, even if you see it, it is a glimpse, as for the goose, this Ju An already knows that some people in the countryside directly raise a few geese to watch the house.
Ju An shook off the thoughts in his mind: "Mom, is there enough duck eggs to pickle a jar."
My sister said with a smile: "Enough, you have been gone for four or five days, and there are basically more than 60 of them in front of you, enough for a big jar, you just happen to be fine, go and wash the jar first, and then drop the mouth of the jar to dry the water inside, and my mother and I will pickle duck eggs in the afternoon."
Ju An heard the spirit, took out the jar from the warehouse, or the sauce jar with a small mouth and a big belly brought from home last time, Ju An was afraid that Lao Mei did not sell it here, and got it directly from his hometown, and brought a jar when he went home last time, and this time he went home in October to participate in the wedding, how to say that he would also get a big vat over, waiting for the turn of autumn and winter, let his mother get a vat of sauerkraut from his hometown for himself.
