Little Life on An American Ranch

Rebecca saw the dumbfounded expressions of Jian Heng and the others, and asked with her mouth open, "You don't know?"

Damai said: "How would we know that the eggs we ate on the ranch are all bought, and the largest hen in the family is not yet ready to lay eggs, so we can't eat eggs laid by high-ranking officials."

Although the words spoken by the three senior officials are a bit wrong, but the overall level is still on the baseline. Jian Heng has lowered his requirements for the two sisters to speak Chinese.

"Dacan what?" Rebecca's Chinese pronunciation was a bit ridiculous.

"It means a businessman, an entrepreneur, this is Chinese, a high official." Wheat enthusiastically showed Rebecca her Chinese proficiency.

Jian Heng was almost in a cold sweat listening to it. It was the first time he heard that a high official referred to a businessman or entrepreneur.

But after thinking about it for a while and following the explanation I gave the two sisters, Barley and Wheat, it seems that this understanding is not wrong. In their view, those with high social status are naturally rich people like businessmen and entrepreneurs.

"By the way, where's your rooster?" Rebecca turned the topic to the rooster again.

Wheat said: "I heard it crowing in the morning, but I don't know where it is now, and we haven't eaten eggs, so we don't care too much about it? Jane, do you know where it is?"

Jian Heng shook his head: "I was with you early in the morning, how could I know where it is. How about it, you go to the tree on the east side of the restaurant and have a look, usually it will be there."

Rebecca thought for a while, and said to Jian Heng: "You can go with me, you are its owner, just take it to our house."

Jian Heng quickly waved his hands and said, "I can't promise you this matter."

"No one in our ranch can catch it," Damai said.

"Then what should we do?" Rebecca was a little anxious.

Jian Heng asked: "Isn't it just an egg, it's just a tastier and a little less tasty, is it like this?"

Hearing what Jian Heng said, both barley and wheat gave Jian Heng a blank look at the same time, and the two girls thought in their hearts: What about others, don’t you look at yourself, eat a green pepper scrambled egg, and you are picky about the ingredients Three picks four! Have the face to say others?

Rebecca said: "It's not like this. It's like a person who used to eat bread every day, but one day suddenly eats a piece of steak. Can you understand that feeling? After eating such delicious eggs,

It’s okay if there is no other way, now that the rooster is nearby, do you feel uncomfortable? "

Speaking of this, Rebecca said to Jian Heng seriously: "I came here specially to ask you to do this matter today. I heard that you are going to China in a few days."

"I have no choice, I really have no choice but to let the rooster come to your house." Jian Heng was quite helpless, it was easy to deal with Daniel and Erhu, but the rooster didn't obey his orders at all, so it was not easy to catch It also said to take it to O'Brien's house, isn't that nonsense.

"Really?" Inbeka blinked and looked at Jian Heng, as if she wanted to see if Jian Heng had lied to her.

Jian Heng nodded solemnly, and began to coax the girl: "If I lie, I will be a puppy!"

"I believe in you." Rebecca happily expressed that she believed in Jian Heng when she heard what Jian Heng said.

At this moment, Mai Mai opened his mouth and said, "Is our horse still in the race?"

"Horse racing?" Rebecca asked curiously.

Wheat immediately explained the whole thing quickly: "How about this, Rebecca will be a proof, let's go from here to the cliff over there, the first one to arrive wins!"

"No." Jian Heng shook his head: "Whichever of you two wins, I will lose. I was at a disadvantage in the first place, but now the distance is short, and the game is over before I run away. It’s too sloppy. Let’s run back and forth like this! Start from here, go to the cliff over there, and then come back here. You race horses, and I’ll take a casual walk here, how about it?”.

Damai looked at Jian Heng: "Do you think you can win by running such a long distance?"

"I never thought about how fast your two horses are, so I just want to take this opportunity to walk the horse," Jian Heng said.

Mai Mai said confidently: "Okay, let's do it like this! Rebecca, you are here to announce the start!"

After speaking, Mai Mai set up his posture and prepared for the competition.

"Are you ready?" When Rebecca heard it, she immediately stretched out one hand and raised it above her head. With the other hand, she pointed at Barley, nodded when she saw Barley, then pointed to Wheat, and nodded again when she saw Wheat. Nodding his head, he pointed to Jian Heng.

Jian Heng said with a bitter face: "Just start running, you look like a racing car! What are you pointing at, hurry up and announce the start...".

"start!"

Rebecca didn't listen to Jian Heng's nonsense at all, and before Jian Heng finished speaking, she put down her arm abruptly.

After the start, the two sisters, Barley and Wheat, quickly roused their mounts, and the two horses slammed their hind hooves, and the two sisters shot out like arrows off the string.

As soon as the two horses moved, Heidou started in an instant, but starting was not his strong point, and when he started, he and others had already thrown away three horses.

The three horses accelerated almost at the same time. Although Heidou was running hard, the distance between the three horses was getting farther and farther. Half of the reason for this was Heidou's slow start, and the other half was on Jian Heng's body.

Because as a man, Jian Heng's weight was originally heavier than the two sisters. Although the weight of the two sisters is considered heavy among women, each of them is about 130 catties, but Jian Heng's side is 180 catties. Ten catties, a full fifty catties more, if put on a professional racecourse, Heidou's body is equivalent to carrying one and a half jockeys.

Although the distance is getting bigger and bigger, Heidou is still running forward with all his strength.

Of course, the speed of the black beans is not slow, even much faster than the average horse. The slowness of the black beans is compared with the two horses of Barley and Wheat. Not only are the horses good, but they have also been trained by quite famous horses. The teacher has carefully trained them, so barley and wheat are so confident in serving black beans.

Jian Heng's side is very relaxed. He believes that the black beans can run back at a slightly slower speed than now, but the horses of barley and wheat must not be able to do so. If you slow down and continue to push the horse, then it is not a race, but a kill.

When he was about ten, Jian Heng took over the reins again and controlled Heidou's speed to prevent him from continuing to run at such a high speed, so as to save his energy, the two sisters came when he was about to return. a big reversal.

Ha ha! Ha ha! Ha ha!

The cheerful laughter of the two sisters in front of them reached Jian Heng's ears arrogantly like silver bells.

As soon as Jian Heng slowed down, the two sisters also slowed down. As veteran riders, the two sisters naturally knew how to control the speed of the horse.

No horse can really maintain this sprint speed, just like a person running a marathon, no one sprints from the beginning and sprints to the end.

The three horses, two in front and one behind, were 15 feet apart, and then kept the distance and rushed towards the side of the mountain.

The first to arrive is naturally the first to turn back. When the two sisters passed by Jian Heng, they waved at Jian Heng proudly.

"Let's go!" said Big Mac.

Mai Mai said to Jian Heng: "I will watch you, and you are not allowed to turn back until you are under the cliff."

"Don't worry, I can still play tricks on you two?!" Jian Heng had only spoken halfway, and the sisters Damai and Mai couldn't hear what he said clearly.

When Jian Heng reached the bottom of the cliff, he took Heidou around a straight and back bend, and then slowly urged Heidou to control the speed to the front again.

After passing the center line in the second half, whether it was the fire lily or the mountain range, white mist began to spray from the nostrils, and beads of sweat appeared on the horse's neck, and the speed dropped significantly.

Heidou, who was about 20 people behind, also sprayed white mist from his nostrils and sweated all over his body, but Heidou's pace was still brisk, and the rhythm of the horse's hooves on the ground was still so steady.

It can be said that at this time, Heidou had already run out of his own rhythm, and the horse's speed did not drop but increased, a little bit faster, and chased after the two horses in front.

despair! despair! despair!

The sound of Heidou's hooves quickly reached Damai and Xiaomai's ears. The two sisters turned their heads and saw that Heidou was only five horses away from them. Get them up to speed.

It's a pity that no matter whether it's the water lily or the mountain range, they are at the end of their strength now, and they can't even penetrate the powder, so they don't have the strength to accelerate.

So the two sisters could only watch helplessly as Jian Heng walked past him triumphantly, and then blew kisses to each of the two sisters viciously.

"hateful!"

Noticing the situation of the mountains, Maimai's face was very ugly, and he punched his palms with his fists, and then completely slowed down the speed of the mountains.

Because there was no point in running any longer, the mountains could no longer catch up with the black beans, and besides, Xiaomai also felt sorry for his horse, and couldn't bear to let it continue to run.

The fire lily didn't run very far, and also slowed down 50 meters away from the mountain range.

When the two sisters reached the finish line, Jian Heng was already standing on the finish line with a smile, beside the referee Rebecca.

"Okay! You're bullying us!"

Damai didn't understand that Heidou grew up in this kind of long-endurance competition, and his own horse couldn't beat Heidou at this distance. If he insisted on half the distance, then his two sisters would definitely win.

Jian Heng said with a smile: "How can I say this, my victory was won by Heidou! By the way, the referee, hurry up and announce the result!"

Rebecca said, "The winner is, Sister Big Mac!"

"Ah!" Jian Heng was dumbfounded, looked at Rebecca and said, "Black whistle, black whistle!"

"You defied me, the referee, at the start of the match, so I have already disqualified you, so whether you run or not, you will lose in this match," Rebecca said.

"Don't you say it's cancelled?" Jian Heng continued to protest.

Rebecca spread her hands and said helplessly, "I said it, but you ran too fast!"

"yeah!"

When Barley and Wheat heard that their side had won, they cheered immediately.

Seeing the appearance of the two of them, Jian Heng said angrily: "I won't agree to your terms, why are you happy?"

Mai Mai made a face at Jian Heng: "It's better than nothing! It's a victory after all."

Hearing what she said, Jian Heng rolled his eyes speechlessly.
