農夫跳下耕耘機, 說, "我們晚上吃醃牛肉."
Nung-fu jumped off his tractor, and said, "Let's get corned beef for dinner."
愛爾蘭人傳統上在三月十七日過聖派翠克節, 也是春天的開始, 吃醃牛肉和包心菜.
Traditionally the Irish have corned beef with cabbage on St.Patrick's day, March 17th, also the beginning of spring.
本地超市早已為顧客將多種醃牛肉, 包心菜, 洋蔥及一些蔬菜集攏在促銷櫃檯.
In the local super market, different packages of corned beef, cabbages, onions and some other veggies have already been thoughtfully collected in the show case for customers.
