Start by trimming cow hooves

Chapter 33 A very special hobby

It rained lightly in the morning.

Possibly due to being soaked in water, the hooves of two cows were abnormal and they walked with a limp.

When the cowboy led the two calves back to the cowshed, he happened to be met by Suri.

How could he miss the opportunity to trim the hooves himself?

I wanted to practice my skills with a calf, but after exhausting the efforts of nine cows and two tigers, I started to tie up the calf, and almost got kicked in the process.

Aunt Karna happened to be nearby with her daughter Thalia.

Su Rui had just prepared the tools, tied an apron on his chest, sprayed disinfectant with a small pot in his hand, and cleaned the cow's hooves.

Seeing this scene, Thalia was slightly stunned and asked him curiously:

"Why did you do such a thing yourself? I thought a rich guy like you would just point fingers everywhere and tell others to do this and that."

Suri told the truth and replied with a smile:

"Don't you think trimming cows' hooves relieves stress? I probably won't be a doctor in this life. Treating cows also gives me a sense of accomplishment and makes me feel happy."

"...a very special hobby."

"How should I put it? It's probably the same as picking out barnacles from a turtle."

"Ah~ I understand when you say that. Do you need my help?"

Miss Talia looked closer and saw that the left side of the cow's hoof was slightly bulging, and there seemed to be an abscess inside.

Suri picked up the shovel, sprayed some iodine for disinfection, and said to her:

"Just stay away a little bit and don't get hurt by the cow. I'm still a newbie and can't control my strength well. Also, why did you come here? Have you completed the entry procedures?"

"Yes, it is a part-time job for the time being, with an hourly salary of fifteen dollars. I have already registered this morning. Since there are no customers to make snorkeling reservations, I promised my mother to come and clean the farm tools with her."

Miss Talia took it seriously.

I saw Suri holding the cow's hoof and peeling off the skin bit by bit.

The abscess area was quickly exposed, and after continuing to spray disinfectant water to clean it, he changed the tool to a knife and slowly cut off the corroded area.

Apply anti-inflammatory medicine, wrap it with gauze, and finally tie it into a tight knot, all in one go.

I had the experience of trimming the hoof last time, and the cow was more cooperative today, so it was actually not too difficult.

After checking the fruits of his labor, Su Rui raised his arm to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and then smiled:

"I haven't seen the nearby seabed yet. Can I make an appointment with you to go to the sea with me? Don't worry, even though you are working for me, I will still give you a tip. My parents may also be interested."

"Of course, no problem. There are several places suitable for snorkeling in the shallow sea near Lanai. The one with the most beautiful scenery is called the Cathedral."

Su Rui asked with interest:

"I've seen it on a map, and I had a question before, why is it called a cathedral?"

Miss Talia introduced seriously:

"Because there is a naturally formed underwater lava cave underneath, and the space is very large. When the weather is sunny, the sunlight shines through the seawater and shines in from the cave, just like the holy light from the colorful windows on the top of the cathedral."

"... For a novice like me, it's better to forget about entering a cave or something. Since there is only this beam of light, it means that the surroundings are pitch black. It makes me suffocate just thinking about it. I can only wear a life jacket tightly and lie on the sea. Look at the corals and small fish and shrimps below through the diving goggles. If you are lucky enough, you may be able to catch a big lobster, which is perfect."

Suri's water nature is average and she is also very self-aware.

After moving to Beverly Hills, I developed the three-legged cat swimming skills in my own swimming pool. At best, I can only say that I can swim, and I still have enough respect for the sea.

Miss Talia nodded and smiled:

"I made a note that there are a lot of lobsters on the seabed nearby, and I have been tired of eating them since I was a child. This season, the sea water in the north becomes colder, and whales are migrating through the Oao Strait. When you have time, you can go and admire those big ones. The local Humpback whales have always been considered the guardian angels of the family."

"Where is the Oao Strait?"

"It's the sea between Lanai, Maui and Molokai that attracts more than 10,000 humpback whales every year, migrating from this channel to warm shallow waters."

As an outsider, Suri's understanding of the local area is obviously far inferior to Miss Talia's.

After untying the rope and taking the calf into a single room, Suri thought of something and said, "Ah, yes, I forgot to find someone to film it. I plan to make some videos and put them online to create a promotion for Lanai Island." account.”

"...Do you want to take pictures of trimming cow hooves?"

Miss Talia was slightly speechless and continued: "But many men may be really interested. My dad once even forgot to pick me up from school in order to watch two deer fight."

"Do the wild deer on the island still fight? I can pick you up anytime. This scene is not common. If it were me, I would watch it first before talking."

"Man is a strange creature."

"Thank you. Women are the same. They always like to hear gossip..."

Seeing the two of them chatting as if no one was around, Aunt Karna felt helpless.

After much deliberation, I finally didn't ask my daughter to help. After all, it was just cleaning farm tools. It was not as important as my daughter's life.

As a Native Hawaiian.

Although Aunt Karna's life is simple and her desire for material needs is relatively low, she is not a fool.

In her opinion, among all the young men of the right age on the island put together, there may not be a single Suri who is outstanding, and they are obviously high-ranking.

As for Little Rock and others.

Seeing Miss Talia's smiling face, my heart was already filled with chills.

After all, even a beauty like Megan Fox took the initiative to send flowers to Suri, let alone Thalia. If he took the initiative, wouldn't it be completely ruined?

Holding a manure fork in hand.

Little Rock sighed and said to his companions:

"Ever since I brought Thalia back from the dock, I've noticed that her attitude towards the boss is very special. Logically speaking, I should be very angry, but why do I feel so... normal?"

Next to him is a white guy with freckles on his face and reddish hair, named Bennett. His family runs a cafe in Lanai Town, and his twin sister is currently in charge of taking care of it.

Bennett thought for a moment and reminded:

"The boss has won a Grammy Award, his name is on the Forbes list, and he invested in Facebook when he was in college. He is completely different from us. How drunk do you have to be to think you can compete with him? Besides, So many people like Thalia, but who has ever really gotten a response from her? She is not interested in us in the first place."

Little Rock was speechless.

He had a somewhat optimistic personality, and he was instantly resurrected with full health. He put his arm around the freckled boy's shoulders and said with a smile:

"Very good. I should forget about the past and look forward. I should continue to like your sister. I hope I can become your brother-in-law soon."

"...Then I will definitely throw you into the sea to feed the fishes. If you want to chase my sister, give me a Lamborghini or McLaren first, otherwise there will be no discussion."

"So cruel? Can a Ford Mustang work?" Little Rock asked.

Bennett, the freckled boy, frowned and thought for a moment, then said again:

"You can force it, but it has to be the new Mustang Cobra. It's a pity that you don't have a chance. My sister also checked Suri's information at home and listened to his songs over and over again."
