Albert stared at the evening news on the TV, frowned slightly, and said to Grandpa Luke, who was sitting across from him while reading the newspaper while teasing the cat.
"We haven't eaten beef for a long time, and now no one dares to eat beef."
Sansa put the cut fruit bowl on the table and watched the news being broadcast on the TV. The announcer was struggling to report on mad cow disease.
Since the outbreak of mad cow disease in the UK in May, the government has still not found the cause of mad cow disease, and this symptom has a tendency to spread to other countries. "
"They must have found the reason, but they dare not tell the truth. 80% of the cattle's feed has a problem." Albert inserted a pineapple and put it in his mouth. The taste was not bad.
It is said that pineapples used to be very valuable in Europe, and only the rich can afford them, so many wealthy people in Europe like to eat pineapples or candied pineapples.
Of course, they like to cook pineapple as a dish.
Under Albert’s strong suggestion, the Andersons have changed their way of eating pineapples. Instead of cooking pineapples as a dish, they will cut pineapples and soak them in salt water for more than half an hour, and then take them out as a fruit to taste and eat. There will be no sour taste.
"Feed?" Luke was surprised. He didn't understand why Albert said that. Does he know anything?
But... what can Albert know? He stays in the magic world most of the time now.
"Cannibalism."
Albert remembers that the cause of mad cow disease is cannibalism. "I remember where I saw it. It is said that the indigenous people on a certain island have the custom of eating the internal organs of the dead, and they have severe similar symptoms."
"Don't be so scary, okay?"
Just after taking a shower, Niya walked out of the bathroom wearing a pale pink nightdress. While wiping her wet hair with a dry towel, she inserted a piece of Pollo from the dish and put it in her mouth. Do you still have the second kind of beauty medicine over there?"
"Are you all used up?" Albert was very surprised. He remembered preparing a lot of that stuff for the family last time.
"I was taken away by my mother, she asked me to ask you." Niya sat next to Albert, rubbing her hair with a dry towel, her white face with a little helplessness, her beauty potion Almost running out, the girls are especially concerned about their looks.
"I still have some, you can use it first, and I will help you recreate it next time." Albert felt a faint scent of rose on his face. It was the shampoo and shower gel on Niya's body. Fragrance.
There is a faint lilac in Isabel's shampoo, which she liked last time in France, and Albert bought her a dozen for this.
Niya's body suddenly leaned forward, leaning in front of Albert to look up and down.
"what happened?"
Albert reached out and gently pushed Nia's face away.
"I'm just curious that you would actually use this thing too." Nya stretched out her hand to pull Albert's cheek as she said, as if she wanted to see if someone pretended to be Albert.
"Of course I also care about my image a little bit. Since I can become a handsome guy, who wants to be an ugly guy."
Of course, Albert also uses cosmetics, and will apply a little when washing his face, and the effect is not bad. At least, don't worry about pimples anymore. Young men and women of 17 or 8 years old are prone to encounter this kind of problem. No one likes their faces full of pimples.
In a way, Albert is more of a little white face than Diggory, but no one dared to call him that way.
"Don't you need to use the hair dryer?" Albert turned off the subject, "Blow it so that the hair is easier to dry, and I will go to bed later."
"Aren't you going to take a bath first?" Niya asked back.
"Um."
Albert went to the bathroom, and he planned to rinse it briefly so that summer nights would not be so stuffy. While soaking in the bathtub, Nya and Sansa were talking outside. They were discussing the news on TV, as if they were saying that beef is prohibited from appearing in the food at the school.
"This era is really terrible."
Albert sighed slightly. He remembered that mad cow disease could be transmitted to humans.
Although milk does not seem to be contagious, this incident directly caused him to lose his appetite for milk in the morning.
When Albert came out of the bathroom after taking a bath, the TV was still reporting about mad cow disease, and an expert was talking to the broadcaster.
To be honest, Albert instinctively hates the term expert.
In the last life, there was a saying that "experts are dogs", and most of the things that can appear on TV screens are this kind of stuff.
"Mad cow disease can be transmitted to humans." Albert moved Tom aside and said to the three people who were watching TV. "Just listen to the expert talk show next time. Ninety-nine percent of these guys are paid. Or it was thrown out by the government to quell the incident."
"Really?" Niya couldn't help but shiver, "Then we used to..."
"Don't worry, it's generally not that easy to get infected, just don't touch it in the future." Albert stretched out his hand and touched Nia's head, softly comforting.
"The reason?" Luke put down the newspaper and frowned and asked, "Why is there a large-scale outbreak of this symptom in China?"
"It is said that the feed dealers mixed some bovine entrails and minced parts of the body into the feed to provide protein for the cattle." Albert picked up a kitten from his feet and said while playing with its ears. : "This is probably the source of this disaster."
"Those people really did everything for money." Luke looked very angry. Nowadays, ordinary people are very disturbed when they talk about it, and no one dared to eat beef anymore.
"It's useless for you to be angry here. The government obviously doesn't want ordinary people to know about this, so it asked the experts to calm the turmoil." Shana said to the two of them: "You should rest earlier, too."
"Um."
After the two old men returned to the master bedroom, Albert turned off the TV and said to Niya who was beside him: "Okay, go to bed, too. Staying up late is not good for your skin."
"Don't think I don't know what you want to do." Niya pouted. "Someone always sneaks out for a date at night."
"I have locked the door at night," Albert said.
"Last time I looked for a cat, you were not in the bedroom." Niya's eyes flashed with triumphant light, "Actually, you can bring her to stay at home for a few days. Grandpa Luke and Grandma Sansa will probably be very happy. Glad you brought your girlfriend back."
"Isabel intends to publish this book, and I will occasionally go over and give her some advice." Albert coughed lightly, "After all, I also have a copy of that book."
"I thought you would die without admitting it, thinking that your lovely sister was fooling you."
"You forgot, I can easily see through other people's minds." Albert stretched out his hand to mess with Nia, smiled and said, "Just tell me if you have anything."
"I saw a dress in a magazine and hope it will be my birthday present." Niya didn't know where to get a magazine, and pointed to the beautiful dress on it and said to Albert.
"Your birthday is still a few months away." Albert reminded.
"It should be paid in advance," Niya said.
"Pre-consumption is not good." Albert reached out his hand and picked up the "Daily Prophet" from the table, UU Reading www.uukanshu. Com looked at Niya and asked, "Didn't Herb give you 10,000 pocket money, you have spent all of it?"
"I used it to buy some funds and stocks to test the waters. Uncle Charlie helped me get an account." Niya pouted and said, "So, I don't have money to buy things now, so I can only ask you to advance the birthday gift in advance. ."
"You are not afraid to lose all your money." Albert was a little speechless, because Niya didn't lie. She has been studying the economy, finance and how to make money in business recently, but most of the time she has a small loss.
"You always need to spend money on trial and error, but not everyone can predict the future like you." Niya said frankly, "I need to accumulate experience and understand the situation."
"That's true, but if you want to try and make mistakes, you can go to the east with Herb. The trial and error cost is low and it is relatively easy to make money. Especially with the start-up capital, it is easy to make money in the right direction, even if you have something in the future. Even if you don’t understand, you can lie down and collect money."
"No wonder mom ran over." Nia suddenly understood a little why Daisy had gone to the East, if it was really like what Albert said.
"All right, birthday present." Albert looked at the price of the dress in the magazine and said to Nia, "It's been a long time since I went shopping together."
"Oh, I knew Albert was the best!" Niya said excitedly, and even hugged Albert and kissed him on the face. "Tomorrow I will talk to Grandpa Luke about going shopping."
"I really like to take advantage of me." Albert shook his head.
After returning to the bedroom, Albert tried to get in touch with Isabel through the double-sided mirror. While waiting for a response there, he picked up today's "Prophet Newspaper" and flipped it through, but was caught by an article in the newspaper. It attracted attention, and even Isobel's voice was temporarily blocked by him.
