Chapter 109: Two Halloweens (Part II)

Early the next morning, the old Thomas arranged for Du Erzhuang and other three Chinese young men to follow Wynne and Andrew to graze together, no need to follow everyone to pick up a new batch of cattle, Ju An took a camera to follow Thomas and they went to pick up the cattle, today is a good take a dozen photos, and then another busy day, to five or six o'clock, Thomas and Lawrence drove to pick up the cowboys from Chile, Ju An looked at the ranch people are almost all there, so he is ready to gather everyone to have a bonfire dinner, By the way, Taylor Thornton and Anderson invited a few old friends to come over, and it can be regarded as welcoming new friends, but fortunately, the east house is already occupied, and tonight Lawrence and Andrew will take a bunch of Chilean cowboys to live in a new place, and will also bring over a dozen horses.

The beef prepared in the ranch today is a small bull of one and a half sizes produced in the pasture, slaughtered by Lawrence with the main knife, Thomas and Juan helped to lay a hand, watching Lawrence quickly use the knife to fly over the hanging calf, skillfully plucking the cowhide, Juan couldn't help but admire, it is estimated that the Ku Ding Xie Niu mentioned in the textbook in elementary school is almost like this, Thomas is using a large basin to clean the cow's inside, using a knife to cut the cow's stomach and tripe, and the intestines are cleaned.

Ju An asked happily: "It turns out that Thomas also likes to eat these things, see that you are skilled, eat often."

Thomas explained: "These things, I am going to wash them casually, and when the time comes, boil them in clean water for the cattle dogs, and whoever eats them in the pasture is generally used to feed the dogs."

Ju An almost stumbled when he heard this, this guy was too wasteful, and hurriedly called Er Zhuang over and asked, "Er Zhuang, will you clean up the tripe?" ”。

Du Erzhuang nodded and said, "No problem, Brother An, we will all do."

Ju An nodded and pointed to the tripe in the big basin in front of Thomas and said, "Hurry up and take a hand, go and clean up the tripe, remember to deal with it cleanly, I will fry it tomorrow night, and give each of you one at that time."

Watching Du Erzhuang pick up the tripe from the basin and clean it in the small basin next to him, Thomas waved his hand and said, "An, don't give me my share, it's a little disgusting when I think about it, by the way, don't you want anything else?" There's quite a few of them here." After speaking, he pulled up a cow intestine and signaled to Ju'an.

Seeing Ju An shaking his head, Lawrence smiled and said, "Ann, give me a copy, and I'll taste how it goes."

Ju An smiled and said to Lawrence: "No problem, when the time comes, you will be satisfied, braised tripe fried garlic, Erzhuang will wash it and send it to me in the refrigerator, don't let the thieves steal it."

Thomas shook his head and said, "If you like to keep it for you every time you kill cattle in the future, if you like the nearby pastures, I can get you a few every day."

Ju An said with a smile: "Forget it, this good thing will get tired of eating every day, and we will naturally eat it when our own cattle grow up."

By this time Lawrence had peeled off the whole hide, and was dividing the beef into the large basin below, and when he cut the loin, he said happily, "Ann, Thomas, come and have a look."

When Juan and Thomas stepped forward to take a look, Lawrence's knife cut the place, revealing a piece of beef mixed with fat to form a beautiful marbling, Thomas said happily: "From now on, it is really good meat, how about tasting it at night."

Then I watched Lawrence draw the same in several places, basically this kind of white fat, forming a beautiful marbling, the three people who watched it were in such a comfortable mood, and Lawrence kept praising it: "Maybe it can be enough to reach the special grade."

This Ju An knows, it is the rating of American beef, generally high-end restaurants are special grades, and there are excellent grades above, and only about three percent of the beef in the United States is rated at this level, Ju An is very happy to hear Lawrence say this, this guy is money.

After the whole cow was divided, the cowboys returned to the ranch, and several old friends also arrived, little Jerry and Emily were attracted to Teddy as soon as they arrived at the ranch, and Taylor looked at it with concern for a while, and then he was relieved, Teddy was a good classmate and had a good temper.

Several tables were full of vegetables, fruits and beef, and the lamb was a whole lamb brought by Taylor, and the veal won unanimous praise from everyone at the dinner, saying that it was very good beef, some people estimated it to be excellent, and some people estimated it to be special. Taylor also recommends that when the time comes to sell, it will be carefully evaluated, so that the price is better.

After the dinner, of course, the guests and hosts had their own time, and when everyone dispersed, Lawrence took Andrew and the Chilean cowboys and walked towards the east camp, and the rest of the stalls were handed over to Thomas Sr. to clean up, and Juan took Teddy and Wu Song back to sleep.

For the next few days, the ranch cowboys were busy, receiving the cows, numbering the ears and something, branding the ranch mark, and when the cows were all received, it was Halloween.

In fact, Halloween is November 1st, Halloween is October 31st, and many people in China celebrate Halloween, not Halloween. In the afternoon, Ju An began to set up, and brought a large jar of chocolate candy to the door. The cobwebs were also pulled up and hung on the gate, and the two small skeletons were also hung under the porch, hanging up like a person being hung up, and pulling a large light bulb in front of the house, just to tell everyone that they were ready for Halloween and that the children were welcome to come and beg for candy.

After arranging everything, Ju An turned around and returned to the house, just walked to the door, and found Wu Song squatting next to the jar, peeling chocolate with two small black hands, Teddy squatting on the ground, stretching his neck, chewing something in his mouth, looking at the dozen or so pieces of candy paper under his feet, Ju An understood, the two guys were eating chocolate, Wu Song saw Ju An come in and grinned at Ju An and screamed, peeled a chocolate and broke it in half, and sent the big half to Teddy's mouth, and he ate the small one, A brotherly feeling of friendship.

Moving the jar to the top of the gun cabinet and finding something to hold down the mouth of the jar, Juan went back to the kitchen and began to cook dinner for himself and the two guys. Ju'an is egg fried rice, Wu Song is shredded meat with some fruit, Teddy is much more luxurious, the space caught a fish weighing a few pounds to remove the scales and hide, put it in the oven and bake, basically seven or eight mature fish is the most suitable for Teddy's appetite.

After dinner, seeing that the sky was also dark, Ju An put on his upper head, a wide robe, and a pale mask, and sat on the sofa below and waited for the little ones to come and beg for candy.

Wu Song and Teddy are still a little obsessed with the candy on the gun cabinet, Wu Song can go to the cabinet, but he doesn't have the strength to lift the things on the altar, Teddy has the strength to lift the lid, but he can't climb the cabinet, the two little guys watched for a long time, and finally gave up, honestly squatted on the sofa next to Ju An and watched TV with Ju An.

After waiting for a while, I heard someone knocking on the door outside, and then a childish child's voice said: "If you don't give candy, you will make trouble!" ”。

As soon as Ju An opened the door, he saw two foreigners about fifty or sixty years old standing next to the car behind, two little guys, a man and a woman, carrying a small bucket, the boy was dressed as a little superman, and the girl was panting for a snow-white skirt, and there were two snow-white wings on the back dressed like an angel, Ju An hurriedly took down the jar from the cabinet, let the two little guys grab the candy, and looked at the little guy happily grabbing the sugar Ju An smiled and said: "Don't make trouble now."

The little angel girl smiled happily and showed a small tooth and said, "Thank you, sir!" Don't mess with it". The two little guys grabbed a handful of candy and wanted to go back, but suddenly saw Teddy and Wu Song who had walked to the door and stopped, and said to Ju An: "Sir, did you feed this little bear and monkey?"

Seeing a bear coming out of the house, the two old men walked up and stood behind the children, Ju An smiled and said to them: "Don't worry, they are all raised from childhood, and they won't hurt people", listening to Ju An's words, and Teddy's size is not too big, so he put his mind at ease.

Looking at the eyes of the two little guys, Ju An pulled Teddy and Wu Song over and said, "You can touch it, don't worry that they don't bite, Teddy and Wu Song are very well-behaved."

The two little ones stepped forward and touched the two little ones, laughing and calling their names while happily touching them.

When the grandparents of the two children saw this scene, they also smiled and said to Ju An: "Happy festival! ”。

Ju An also smiled and said to them: "Happy festival! You were the first to come and beg for candy, and I waited for a long time."

The old man said with a smile: "Everyone lives far away here, and they usually take their children to the town to beg for sugar, our family keeps our son and daughter-in-law to send sugar, and we take our grandchildren out to beg for candy, and we see you here with the lights on before you come, generally at night is a few groups of children to beg for sugar, you buy too much sugar, one-third of it can't be used."

Ju An smiled and said, "Then let the children take a little more, anyway, I have very little left."

The two old men said with a smile: "The children are just happy, and we don't give them a lot of candy, just one or two pieces a day."

After speaking, he pulled up the two little guys who looked at Teddy and Wu Song reluctantly, said goodbye to Ju An, and got into the car, when the car started, the two little guys also stretched out their heads, followed Teddy and Wu Song waved goodbye, looking at the two little heads stretched out, it is estimated that in the hearts of these two little guys, Teddy Wu Song is much more interesting than begging for candy.
