Chapter 140: Whatever You Let Go, That's What You'll See

  "Ah! All right, the cowboys who should go home have all gone home." Thomas nodded and stared intently at the ball game on TV. Ju An had no choice but to get up and help Thomas make a cup of coffee, then took some small snacks and put them on the coffee table.

  Thomas said thank you and held his coffee to watch the game. After a while, the game was over, and the Montana Brewmasters lost. Thomas cursed: "Damn it!" Only then did he remember that he hadn't drunk his coffee yet. When he lowered his head to take a look, it had gone cold.

  After taking a sip of the cool drink, Thomas said: "Well, let's hire two or three more people at the ranch. Some Chilean cowboys might not be coming back after this Christmas."

  "Hey, what's wrong?" said Ju An with a frown.

  Thomas said: "There are a few young Chilean cowboys who are quite slippery, and Lawrence has told them several times that it won't do."

  "Alright, that's settled. This person's problem is up to you to handle, it's really not easy to find people nowadays." After saying this, Ju An patted his forehead, thinking of the last time he went to town and found five or six people after searching for half a day.

  Thomas smiled and said: "Now it's easier to find people, after the winter many ranches won't need so many cowboys, some of them will lose their jobs."

  "Just watch and see, if you can find someone who speaks English that would be best. These Spanish speakers have been listening for half a day and still don't know what to say, it's like talking to a wall." Yu An shook his head and said.

  "Actually, I asked Erzhuang and the others today if they knew any unemployed cowboys who were not bad, and they said they knew a few, but didn't know if they still did that kind of work or not. I came over to ask you for an introduction, and since you nodded, I'll have them get in touch with each other. If they're willing to come over, then they can come over." Thomas said with a smile.

  "Uh-huh, it's best if they know each other inside out, let them get in touch."

  Thomas picked up his hat from the tea table and stood up: "Well, I have nothing more to do, I'll go back to my room".

  He got up from the couch, sent Thomas to the door, closed the door, turned off the TV, and went upstairs with a group of people. After arriving upstairs, he sent four guys into space, prepared meat for two small eagles, left the space, took a bath, and lay down on the bed.

  Went online and played a couple of games, then turned off the lights to sleep, but couldn't fall asleep. Kept thinking about Diana's shadow in my mind, finally fell asleep after a long time. Had a dream at night, dreamed that Diana was pulling a cart and walking forward, I was pushing the cart behind her. But Diana walked faster and faster, her figure gradually disappearing into the distance. I wanted to call out Diana's name but couldn't make a sound, wanted to catch up but couldn't move my feet. Suddenly woke up with a start, covered in cold sweat. Got up again and went back to the bathroom, turned on the showerhead, put my hands against the wall, and buried my head under the warm water flowing from above.

  When he lay back on the bed again, Ju An turned off the light, but had no intention of sleeping. Sometimes thinking of Diana, sometimes Temple's face appeared in his mind, and it was entangled until the rooster outside the window began to crow. Ju An finally made up his mind in his heart and fell asleep heavily.

  Not long after falling asleep, the neighing of horses outside the window woke up Ju'an again. Without looking, he knew that Dòu Gé was urging him on once more. Opening the window, he was chilled by the cool air outside and shouted at Dòu Cǎo: "Alright, alright! I'll be right there!" Then he closed the window and grumbled a sentence, like a ghost demanding his life.

  Two carrots were fetched to feed Snowflake and Bean, now Snowflake is pregnant, being taken good care of by Nancy every day. When they arrived at the stable, Snowflake was already brushed clean. Two carrots were given to the two horses, then Bean was led out of her stall, and grooming began in the aisle, after which Bean's hooves were picked, a saddle put on, and she was ridden around once before being sent off to join the herd.

  After returning home, I served the four meat-eating old men. Then, I took out a few guys from space and let them off at the door to play.

  After watching Teddy and Big Cat brothers playing happily, I suddenly thought that winter is coming soon. Shouldn't this guy Teddy be hibernating? He's eaten so much and gotten so fat, there shouldn't be any problem, but looking at Teddy's attitude, he doesn't seem sleepy at all. Is he not planning to hibernate?

  After looking outside for a while, Guan An glanced at the watch on his hand and saw that it was almost 10 o'clock. He went inside and dialed Temple's number. When Temple's voice came through the phone, "Shh! An, what's going on so early?"

  "Temple! I want to tell you something."

  "What's wrong?"

  "I think I've fallen for someone else," Ju An said.

  On the other end of the line, there was a moment of silence. After a while, Temple's voice came through: "Actually, I've been thinking about this too, our differences are just too big. I could have gone back for Thanksgiving break, but I didn't know how to bring it up with you. Last time, I wanted you to settle in Los Angeles, but you refused. After you left, I thought about a lot of things and realized that we don't really have any common ground."

  "Huh! I let out a sigh of relief, it seems everyone had the same idea. This makes things easier, as I was worried that Teri would make a big fuss. Then I heard Teri chuckle on the other end and say: 'Thanks, An, for giving me wonderful memories. Good luck! Bye bye'."

  "Bye! Also wish you good luck!" After hanging up the phone, Hu took a deep breath and sat down on the sofa, as if the chains that had bound his body had fallen off with a clang.

  Picked up the phone and started dialing Diana's number, it rang for a while before connecting, but Diana didn't say anything, and the two just stayed silent.

  "Diana, I'm An." After a pause, Ju An spoke up.

  "Diana's voice came over: 'I know, what's up?'"

  "This morning I told Temple that we broke up, she also felt that our personality differences were too great and it was impossible for us to be together. I told her that I had fallen in love with another girl," said Ju An.

  "Oh!" Diana exclaimed indifferently.

  "I just wanted to tell you first thing, Diana, are you free tonight? We're going to the movies."

  "What movie?" Diana asked.

  "Whatever is showing at the cinema, we'll go watch whatever it is," said Ju An.

  "Diana" chuckled and said: "It's Thanksgiving tonight, what movie would be on?"

  "Then tomorrow, we'll go see what's on tomorrow night. Can't we just watch whatever is on?" Xie An's heart was already in his throat, fearing that he would hear Diana's words of rejection.

  "Then come to my place tomorrow night and pick me up, that's it," said Diana before hanging up the phone on Ju An.

  Listening to the humming sound from the receiver for a long time, Ju An finally came back to her senses, then jumped up and waved her fist in the air, shouting "It's out!" Suddenly, she felt that the sky outside had suddenly brightened.

  Humming a little tune, Ju An easily came out of the house, holding Teddy's two front paws and spinning around in circles, making Teddy dizzy. As soon as Ju An let go, Teddy's butt thudded onto the ground at the door, staring with his big round eyes, looking at Ju An, not knowing what kind of madness his owner had come down with.

  When Ju An tried to tease the two big cat brothers, the two guys were very agile and immediately jumped onto the ground, with their four small paws waving wildly in the air, somewhat like a shrew fighting. As a result, Ju An had no choice but to pick up one of them, touch his forehead against the little guy's forehead, and then kiss the little guy's head. This made Teddy even more furious, and Wu Song also stood by with a menacing grin, as if he was about to make a run for it.

  Let go of the big cat chart, then popped a burst bean on the head of Big Cat Wan, and walked towards the house with a happy heart, preparing to pick up his own northern target range to waste a few bullets. He took the ammunition box and gun, and walked towards the stable. Teddy originally wanted to follow, but after walking a few steps, he turned back to see that Wu Song and Big Cat brothers had all shrunk behind, not one of them came forward. After a pause, he also shrank back.

  Mounted on the bean grass, rushing towards the shooting range, when arrived at the shooting range, loaded the clip, then held the gun in his waist, thumb hanging from the pants pocket, another hand holding the gun, started to shoot, hitting the iron plate target not far away, "dang dang dang" ringing. Painfully and quickly finished several clips, startling a flock of flying crows, only stopped after that. Then took out bullets from the ammunition box, loaded them into the clip, after several clips were fully loaded, started shooting again, hearing the sound of bullets "da da da", then mud splashing everywhere, An was sweeping the surroundings with his gun. After this round of bullets finished, An finally stopped, looking at the scattered bullet shells on the ground, An nodded in satisfaction, "Hmm! My shooting skills have improved a lot!"

  After venting in the shooting range, I went back home to make lunch. Lunch was simple and I only ate a little bit. Just after finishing lunch, Thomas came into the kitchen to help out, preparing to roast the turkey for tonight's celebration. As soon as he saw the three turkeys, Thomas let out a big jump and said: "An, the turkeys you bought this time are too big! Two would have been enough for the people on the ranch to eat, plus the ham salad, roasted sweet potatoes and all that, you've prepared enough food for 40 people!"

  "Besides, the other one is left for the ranch's cow dogs, they've been working hard for a long time too, let them have some good food," said Jū ān with a smile. As he spoke, he pointed to Teddy and Big Cat Brothers at his feet. Teddy caught a whiff of the honey from outside the courtyard and rushed over following the scent, then tried to climb onto the table excitedly. Jū ān gave him some more, only then did he calm down. Big Cat Brothers sniffed it but lost interest, and the two brothers continued to tussle with each other.

  Thomas chuckled and then the two of them started stuffing breadcrumbs into the turkey's belly, then brushed a layer of honey on top of the turkey, covered it with aluminum foil, and put it in the oven. This thing needs to be roasted for several hours before it's done. Fortunately, Ju An's kitchen was originally large enough that three turkeys could be roasted at the same time.
