The World of American Drama: From the Los Angeles Patrol

Chapter 152

Lunch was very simple. Aunt Molly made barbecue sandwiches in advance. The old Tiago couple brought mexican roselle tea. Roselle has a more beautiful name in Seris, called roselle.

The boiled roselle tea soup has a beautiful ruby-like color. Almost all Mexican families boil a large pot every day. The taste is not bad, not as good as the lavender tea last night, but it is not bad.

In any case, it was much better than the Dr. Pepper that Walker and the others were drinking. Walker threw him a bottle when he was working just now, and Jack almost didn't spit it out.

This thing reminded him of the cherry-flavored cola he drank before, and it also had a taste of safflower oil, which was not as bad as it was, comparable to the Laoshan white flower snake grass water in his previous life. Several old and young Texas men drank with relish, and Jack almost thought he was being tricked.

After lunch, the ladies retreat first, they go back to take a shower, and go shopping in the city in the afternoon, while the men continue to work.

There was an episode in the middle. Aunt Molly didn't want to go at first, and planned to spend the afternoon preparing dinner for the family. In the end, it was Hannah who promised that Jack could handle everything, so she hesitated and nodded in agreement.

Jack guessed that seeing himself make a long list of seasoning purchases and handing it to Hannah was the reason that really convinced her.

After lunch, everyone only rested for a while before continuing to work. Jack spliced ​​the wooden beams into a frame, nailed the planks, and climbed up to the roof with the Walker brothers. Bonham was directing from below. Lining repaired.

Then the brothers laid the waterproof layer on the outside, and Jack added insulation cotton to the wooden frame inside. Finally, it was the most tiring and patient work. A piece of cement tile was hoisted on the roof and laid on top of each other. He was busy until the afternoon. It was all finished at three o'clock.

"Oh, I thought I would be busy until tomorrow, but I didn't expect it to be done so early today."

Bonham was obviously tired, leaning against the pickup truck with some difficulty, Auggie stepped forward to support him with concern.

"Are you okay, old guy? You've been in poor health recently, do you want to go to Austin for a checkup?" Walker suggested after packing up his things.

Bonham waved his hand and said with a smile, "It's just that I'm getting older, but I rarely slept well yesterday, and I felt great when I woke up in the morning. If this state continues, maybe I can go to Shuangfeng with you again. There's beer in the restaurant."

"Oh, come on, don't say such things in Auggie's face." Walker waved his hand down a few times, with a look of disgust on his face.

Auggie protested: "I'm 13 years old. Stella went there when I was my age, and Liam took it."

"Hey, brat, you're dead, don't think about me taking you to play in the future."

The betrayed Liam was pushed to the ground by Walker before he finished speaking, and the two brothers started fighting again.

"Stop it, Emily was there at the time, hey, you bastard is too aggressive." Liam let out a scream.

Jack looked at the two old boys enviously, "The relationship between your family members is so enviable."

"You can also treat us as a family. Auggie and Stella are almost adults. We haven't heard Baby's crying for a long time. You and Hannah should come back and settle down sooner." Bonham said in his tone There was a trace of sentimentality, but there was a cunning unique to the elderly in his eyes.

Jack was stunned. He didn't expect that he would be urged to marry in the beautiful country in this life, and he felt an inexplicable kindness in his heart.

"Maybe I should come back with Hannah more often. The Texans have given me a new perspective on this country."

"Speaking like you are a foreigner, haha, it's still early, boys, how about we go catch catfish in the lake?"

The men in the Walker family immediately cheered, and Jack was also very curious. He had seen a lot of online videos in his previous life, but he had never seen it in real life. Although the teeth of catfish are not sharp, if it is really like the kind of catfish caught on the Internet in his previous life Fish are still dangerous.

Fortunately, Texas is not the Great Lakes region, and the heavy metal pollution here is not serious. For the time being, I have not heard of any large-scale chemical spill pollution like the one that happened in Ohio in my previous life.

Whether it's catfish or any other freshwater fish, as long as it's not a scavenger or an alligator gar, Jack has a thousand ways to turn them into what the old beauties love to eat.

But before he went to catch the fish, he set his sights on the chicken coop on the farm. The old Thiago raised dozens of barbed Rocco chickens on the farm, which are common reed chickens in the countryside of Seris, and the key is to raise them free-range.

It's rare to see such a thing in the beautiful country supermarket, not to mention that there are a few small roosters in it that can be grown up.

Jack asked old Tiago to help butcher two little roosters, and waited for him to come back to deal with them, and then a group of people drove roaringly towards a small lake nearby.

It is said that this is a lake, but strictly speaking it should be the bend of a small river, forming a small wetland. There is a huge ancient cypress growing beside the river, and the huge aerial roots form a small ecosystem by the lake.

Catfish like to hide in the mud holes in the aerial roots. Walker and Liam took off their clothes, only wore a pair of big pants and thick rubber gloves, jumped into the water and started digging holes to lure catfish.

Bonham, on the other hand, leisurely started fishing with bait not far away, and he had a harvest in less than half an hour. It looked quite big, and the old man started to slip the rod leisurely.

Jack and Auggie, who were watching from the sidelines, suddenly became excited, one on the left and one on the right, copying nets one by one, staring nervously at the surface of the lake where water splashed from time to time.

In the end, a nearly 20-pound striped bass landed on the shore at the cost of Jack's wet body. The old man was so happy that he couldn't help but thank him for his good luck as a novice.

On the other side, Walker and Liam also followed suit. The two brothers worked together to catch a catfish weighing more than 30 pounds. Before five o'clock, the group returned with two big fish.

Back at Hannah's small farm, the ladies just came back, and Hannah bought a big bag of seasonings from the Asian supermarket.

Jack built two simple stoves with the excess cement tiles from today's roof repairs, and then started the performance while the people around him were stunned.

Drizzle the two processed reed chickens with sugar syrup, deep-fry them in an oil pan until golden, then throw them into a large pot and simmer on low heat. The seasoning is not complete, but Jack made a substitute with western spices such as rosemary. A Dezhou grilled chicken, although only he can understand this stalk, but he still enjoys it.

More than 30 pounds of catfish only took half of the fish, and the slices became thick fish fillets. After a simple marinade, they were put into the oil pan. Finally, German-style sauerkraut was served with jalapeños and white pepper to make a dish Weird western style poached fish.

In the end, Jack made a whole show, and the 18-pound striped bass was forced into a complete squirrel bass. Aunt Molly had to drive home and rummaged through the attic for a long time to find one that could fit completely. Great platter of this fish.

　I don't know if everyone likes this style of daily content. If you think it's watery, I will reduce the plot in this aspect in the future.

　　In addition, please count the votes. Recently, there are fewer and fewer new collections. Everyone, let me find any list to stay.
