Chapter 48: Rodeo (2)
At this time, Taylor had already bought the tickets and was walking here, and saw several people in the Ju'an family looking at the money hug. said, "What, I'm interested in this wallet."
Ju An said: "I just came, and my sister is watching." As he spoke, he picked up a wallet from the stall, carved with the pattern of a horse, his front hooves raised, and his mane rolled like a fire, and the horse was very good: "It's really good, only 15 dollars."
Taylor laughs and says, "These are machine-carved, and hand-carved ones are twice as expensive."
Ju An asked, "The machine carved, it's still cowhide."
Taylor took it and handed it back to Ju An, and said, "The skin is still good, you guys take your time and I'll go over there to have a look." With that, he walked towards the tour group.
The old lady also made up her mind at this time, and picked out three or four wallets, Ju An took out the money to help pay the money, and asked strangely: "Sister, what are you buying so much money for, giving it away?" ”。
The old lady pushed him and said, "I'll come by myself, I'll buy a few for my colleagues, I can't come to the United States and go back empty-handed."
Ju An said: "No wonder, Europeans and Americans like Chinese tourists, this is really ruthless, a Chinese is equivalent to a family, a wallet to buy a few, who doesn't like it."
The old lady interrupted Ju An with a smile: "You are poor."
Mom and Dad laughed too. After buying the wallet, Ju An took his parents and a large family to the ice cream stall, and got an ice cream for each of the four little ones, plus a bag of potato chips for each of them. As for Wu Song, who was held in Emily's arms, he mixed a pack of carrot sticks. Then each of the five adults had a cone in their hands. He went to old Taylor and joined the army.
When Juan walked over, he saw Taylor and Thornton chatting with an old cowboy dressed as an old cowboy, as if they had met an acquaintance, and Anderson followed a group of young and promising IT teenagers who were still looking at something around the stall.
When Juan walked over with a group of children, Taylor said, "Ann, introduce you to a friend."
The old cowboy turned his face, Ju An actually knew him, and he had also been to his horse farm to buy horses. It's the hospitable and hearty old Jason.
Jason also saw Ju An, and immediately stretched out his big hand and shook Ju An: "An, we meet again, is old Thomas okay?"
Taylor said strangely, "So you know each other."
Ju An smiled and said, "Hello! Yes, we met again, this is my parents, and my sister and brother-in-law, this is my friend, these two are my nephews and nieces" introduced one by one, and saw that my mother and father couldn't understand what to say, so I asked Wu Ming to take them to the IT youth to have a look.
He apologized to everyone and explained to Jason, "My parents and sister don't speak English well and don't understand what we say," and then continued: "Thomas Sr. took me to Jason's ranch to buy horses, and I was eye-opening to Jason's collection."
Jason was even happier: "I'm old now, so I can only watch the show from the stands, but today I brought my daughter to the barrel race."
Ju An smiled and said, "Lily is coming to participate in the barrel winding?" ”。
Jason replied, "It's my eldest daughter, Reese, Lily is not interested in that, she is more interested in singing and dancing than being a good cowboy girl" and spread his hands depressedly.
At this time, a crisp voice came: "Hey, Dad, what bad things are you saying about me again". Then I saw Lily holding her sister Reese and another dark-haired girl approaching. Lily is wearing sneakers, suspender denim shorts, and a baseball cap today. Reese and the black-haired girl are much more gorgeous, wearing bright leather jackets, white cowboy hats, the most distinctive thing is their clothes, Reese is snow-white, decorated with a lot of white pearls, and the black-haired girl's top is lake blue, decorated with sequins to form a large pattern, I have to say that the two girls are too amazing to Ju An.
Hearing his daughter's dissatisfied voice, Jason immediately raised his hands and said, "There is nothing at all, my angel" said and secretly winked at everyone, and everyone was amused by Old Jason.
Then I heard Lily say, "Dinah, this is Ann, Ann is my sister's friend Dinah." Then Juan shook hands with Dinah and said to each other that it was nice to meet you.
After introducing the young people to each other, Taylor Sr. went to chat with Jason and a group of older people at the beer stand. Sisters Juan and Lily were left behind, as well as Dinah.
At this time, several girls from the tour group came over to Reese, and Dinah said, "Your clothes are so beautiful, can I take a picture with you?"
Reese and Dinah smiled and took a photo with a few girls, the photographer was Ju'an, and when the girls were reconciled, a group of young men also strongly asked to take a photo with the two, Reese and Dinah met everyone's request with a smile.
After taking a group photo, everyone dispersed, only Wu Ming, a kid, stayed on the pretext, and Ju An had to introduce the animal to the three Yanma girls.
Lily smiled and asked Ju An, "Are you still used to your life, Mr. Eastern" and laughed softly after asking.
"At first, I thought it was good, but then I got used to it, and then I got used to it," Juan said.
Dinah asked curiously, "Why?"
Wu Ming said with a smile: "He likes to eat beef, at first he was satisfied with eating every day, and after eating for a while, he wanted to eat Chinese food, and then he got used to Chinese food and steak instead."
The three girls laughed as they heard it interestingly.
Dinah asked, "Are you Chinese?" ”。
Wu Ming nodded and said, "Yes, I'm from China, and An came a few months earlier than me," he said and pointed to Ju An.
Reese laughs and says, "Dinah is a quarter of Chinese ancestry, and his maternal grandfather was Chinese."
Ju An looked at Dinah curiously and said, "Is the hair inherited from your grandfather?" ”。
Dinah said with a smile: "Actually, I have half German ancestry, a quarter of Chinese ancestry, and the other quarter of Scottish ancestry.
Ju An and Wu Ming both said: "I'm sorry."
Dinah smiled and said, "It's okay".
Ju An followed and said: "If you have time, you can go to my place as a guest, now my parents live with me, and my mother's Chinese food is very authentic, you will like it."
Lily immediately echoed and said, "Okay, okay, then we can go to your place in two days, I have eaten in a Chinese restaurant before, and it tastes very good."
Ju An said with a smile: "If you are talking about the Chinese restaurants in the town, forget it, its Chinese cuisine has been changed, in fact, it can no longer be regarded as complete Chinese cuisine."
Dinah also said: "Yes, Lily, I have only been to that restaurant once, or Reese and I went with me, I don't want to eat it after eating once, it is completely different from what I ate at my grandfather's house when I was a child, I have been to San Francisco and Los Angeles a few times, where there are several restaurants where Chinese food is authentic."
Reese also said: "I like the vegetarian stuffed buns steamed in a cage made of bamboo, as well as their braised pork and sweet and sour fish, I also like to eat, but there are too many spines and it is too troublesome to eat."
Ju An and Wu Ming laughed when they heard Ruixi's complaints, knowing that Lao Mei basically didn't eat this kind of prickly things, and the fish sold in the supermarket were all de-thorned, and they were basically the kind of big fish.
Ju An said with a smile: "If you go to my house as a guest, my mother does a good job of braised pork, and my mother is good at steaming the fish, as for the steamed buns in the bamboo basket, there is no such bamboo cage at home."
Lily listened and said, "Then we will go to your place in two days, listen to you, I haven't eaten authentic Chinese food, I used to think that the Chinese restaurant in Lewistown is Chinese, but it is not." I used to order their takeout at school."
Ju An said: "In fact, it doesn't matter if it's authentic or not, you just like to eat, my mother is only one kind of Chinese cuisine, China has eight major cuisines, some of the eight major cuisines are divided into several small cuisines, as a Chinese, I myself have not eaten all these eight cuisines."
Lily was stunned: "Sounds complicated."
Ju An smiled: "Actually, there are some Chinese dishes, I don't like to eat them, my taste is heavier, I like spicy ones, and I don't like to eat some sweet ones."
"It's similar to my grandfather's taste, he came from a Chinese place called Shansheng," Dinah said.
Wu Ming nodded and said, "That's really almost, the taste of Mountain Province is spicy."
While chatting with great interest, old Taylor interrupted everyone with a remark.
It is estimated that Taylor saw that the time was not early, so he clapped his hands and said loudly: "Friends, the show is about to start, let's go in." Then a large group of people walked towards the entrance.
When I entered the performance arena, Ju'an saw that it was like a small sports field, surrounded by stands, and about ten floors of seats circled around the venue. By the time Ju'an and the others entered, there were already a lot of people inside.
Looking up, I found that most of the people were dragging their families to watch the show together, and there were many little guys with small cowboy hats lying on the innermost railing, and the adults were dressed simply, similar to the wave of people in Ju'an, jeans, long-sleeved shirts, and sunglasses. The little ones are dressed up very gorgeously, each of them is almost the same little jeans, colorful little leather jackets, white, brown and brown little cowboy hats, not counting the young girls riding horses in the field, the most eye-catching are these little ones.
