Chapter 791: 781. Types of Cattle_1

The rest of the journey was very calm.

Perhaps still shaken, the father in the backseat fed the chestnut to his son bit by bit, like feeding ants, and the shiny, colorful light-up shoes were roughly stuffed into a pocket, evidently not to be worn again until they got out of the car.

The only issue was Yan Ran having eaten too much.

For breakfast, they had rice balls with noodle soup, which sounds simple, but the rice balls were stuffed with chopped tea eggs, pickled long beans, waterlon sauce, cucumber shreds, fish floss, small pickles…

There were even sweet ones, filled with cherry sauce made in spring!

Right, it was from the cherry tree at their doorstep, coveted by both squirrels and Old Xu, which, since the local cherries don’t last long and at that ti they were too busy to care, Seventh Uncle made into sauce directly.

He didn’t tell anyone, and the sauce had just been sitting in the kitchen. With so many tasty things around, it gradually got pushed to the corner.

People at Lao Song’s family thought soone had eaten it or given it away. They figured there wouldn’t be much from one tree anyway, and since Old Xu had worked diligently, they wouldn’t really be at a loss to share so with him.

Now that it had been found, a large jar of sauce was polished off in one morning. Even the usually steadfast Xin Jun couldn’t help overeating, so Yan Ran eating a bit more was even less notable.

In short, who could resist such rice balls?

So Yan Ran comforted herself with the excuse that “we’re going on a long trip and won’t necessarily have lunch on ti” and impressively downed four in one go!

Otherwise, why wouldn’t she eat anything once they were in the car?

Now, to set a good example for the child, she started by eating a large amount of chestnuts, and then half a tea egg.

But after the child education session, you can’t just stuff half a tea egg back, so she had to struggle to eat it.

Now she could only sit up straight and puff out her chest, maintaining a posture as proper as a soldier’s.

Fortunately, they finally arrived at the station!

Everyone grabbed their simple luggage and followed the stream of people off the train, only to find the young father holding a child silently following them out of the station.

At that mont, Professor Song pointed at the man ahead and said, “Look, my student!”

The young father behind them also pointed at that man, “Look, Uncle is here!”

Then everyone’s eyes t: “…”

Turns out, these two were from the sa family, after all.

Everyone cramd into the spacious van and listened to the young boss, Niu Ben, talk about his farm and business, all in good spirits.

Only then did Yan Ran curiously ask, “Boss Niu, does your brother… also work at your cattle farm?”

Boss Niu’s family na was Niu, and his first na was Niu Ben. His younger brother’s na was Niu Jia.

According to Boss Niu, when he was born, his family’s greatest wish was to buy three cows, so the farming work wouldn’t be so hard, which is why they had a literate person na him.

When his younger brother was born, the family still didn’t have any cows. So his parents thought they might have asked for too much before and decided to ask for land instead.

Jia, you see, two plots of land for each son, how nice would that be!

As for whether it worked…

Boss Niu told the truth, “By the ti I returned from university, they still had neither land nor cows.”

Now, hearing Yan Ran’s question, Boss Niu laughed and said,

“Yes, I studied agriculture in university, and when I told my professor I wanted to raise cattle, he introduced

to the Animal Husbandry College.”

“My brother studies veterinary science; he opened a pet clinic and the stray cats and dogs he takes in are neutered and then released on the farm.”

“The cats inspect the grass for , and the dogs watch the cattle. He cos by to give my cattle checkups and treat minor ailnts when he’s free. And I tell you, my brother has a really good reputation. Within ten miles, anyone with a sick animal goes to him! His shop’s ratings are high too.”

Would you have guessed it?

The three of them turned their heads together to look at Niu Jia, who was holding a child in the back seat: Judging by his behavior on the high-speed train, he hardly seed like the kind, loving pet doctor everyone pictured him to be.

With a flushed face, Niu Jia glared back: What, can’t a pet doctor speak ill of others?

Everyone turned their heads back again.

Because upon reflection, aside from spaying and neutering, all the family’s livestock seed so healthy that they barely needed a vet.

But Boss Niu didn’t seem to notice at all and instead started to reveal his little brother’s shortcomings again to his forr ntor:

“We really are fated, ha! Out of so many trains, you just happened to be on the sa one as my brother. This ti he’s coming back to stay at my place with his kid. The child gets spoiled by grandparents and great-grandparents at ho, and he doesn’t care at all. So, the kid’s mom sent them back…”

The main idea was just one: Both father and son needed to be re-educated! In any case, indulgence was absolutely unacceptable!

Oh~~~

Everyone nodded slowly in agreent and then concurred:

“Indeed, neither of them should be indulged!”

Hearing this, Boss Niu quickly realized that sothing must have happened on the high-speed train, and wisely refrained from asking more. Instead, he laughed heartily:

“Right! That’s the spirit! When he was little and strayed from the path, it was my stick that taught him a lesson! Now that he’s a father, I wonder if the stick still recognizes him.”

Song Tan started to laugh—Professor Song, you have to admit, had a great eye for talent. As far as he could see, each one of his students was remarkably interesting!

The car swayed along a suburban road, its surroundings lush with green pastures.

“Is all that in the fields fodder?”

“Yes!” Boss Niu did not keep secrets: “Rye, alfalfa, and there are Sudan grass and corn forage… Anyway, there’s probably a dozen kinds, along with so native grasses that were just scattered around.”

“Then there’s a separate area specially cultivated for high-yield crops, used for fodder during winter.”

As the car approached the deeper part of the pasture, cattle of different sizes and colors could be seen along the road.

“What kind of cattle are these? Are they tasty?”

Then, sitting in the back holding a child, Niu Jia spoke:

“That one over there is Jiaxian Red, a breed of Luxi Yellow Cattle. Their reddish hair makes them easy to recognize. They’re easy to raise, large in size, and their at is tender, making them quite popular in the market.”

“Those few colored ones over there are Simntal at Cattle, also quite good, especially as breed cattle—very versatile. They’re big, strong, easy to raise, and very fertile, though their at quality is just a bit inferior.”

“If you’re buying cattle in bulk, just mix in three to five of those; you don’t need to get too many.”

He spoke with confidence, and even the child in his arms watched fixedly out the car window, his chubby little hand pressing against the glass:

“Cow… Daddy… Cow…”

How adorable!

Song Tan pointed at one in front: “What about that one? It looks a lot like our Dahuang, just a bit bigger.”

Niu Jia looked: “That’s a Luxi Yellow Cattle. The Dahuang you’re talking about must be a native breed? The native ones are smaller in size and now used only for genetic improvent. The ones on the farm are selectively bred varieties.”

“When buying cattle, opt for more Luxi Yellow Cattle. They’re the variety most exported, with especially fine at texture and multiple layers.”

To put it simply, delicious.
