Little Life on An American Ranch

  Chapter 91 Gathering

  The three boys are a little addicted to playing, and they are very excited when the sun is about to set. No one mentions cooking at all, which makes Jian Heng a little dissatisfied.

  Jian Heng went out of the house, and was about to step on the mountain bike to call someone back to cook.

Coincidentally at this time, sisters Damai and Mai came back from a round of horse riding. The two sisters were not as blind as Zhang Jialiang. They replaced their mounts with new horses early. Now this is a trial ride of a new horse. came back.

  Of course, Jian Heng thought he was also a smart person, so he chose the gelding of Big Meteor as his new mount.

   "Where are you going at this time?" Seeing Jian Heng's hurry, Mai Mai asked one more question.

  Jian Heng started the mountain bike and said: "Look for them to come back to cook, why don't you check what time it is now."

   "Don't call them, let's make dinner today!" Damai took over the task of cooking to Jian Heng.

  To be honest, Damai misses American food a little bit now, and she has not fully adapted to Chinese food, so when she heard that no one is cooking tonight, the glutton in her stomach suddenly talked to Damai to eat steak, eat steak!

Just as Jian Heng started the car, he heard Damai say that she would make dinner, so he let the motor run and asked in a suspicious tone, "You? Is it okay? Let me tell you that I can't wait to make the second dinner." Meal twice, if I don’t eat on time, my temper will be very bad, I won’t tell you nonsense, I live to eat!”

  Jian Heng has no confidence in the cooking skills of the two sisters, because he has never seen the two sisters cook.

  Wheat looked at Jian Heng's whole body with a particularly contemptuous look, and then said confidently: "Better than you!"

   "Then I'll leave dinner to you two today. I'll check how their work is doing. You two can show off in the kitchen. I'll come back for dinner in half an hour, okay?" Jian Heng said.

  Barley said: "Half an hour, it's impossible, give me another 15 minutes, after all, many ingredients have not been processed yet!"

   "Okay, then it's a deal!"

   After speaking, Jian Heng stepped on the accelerator and rode the mountain bike directly to Xiaogudi.

  Just a few steps away, I saw that Black Dou had slipped out of the cattle herd at some point, and was circling around the old cowshed with a silly and sweet look on his face.

  Jian Heng knew from the appearance of this guy, the young man is young, but he has a lot of lust! Look at that little figure, turning straight around the railing, with two big nostrils shrinking uncontrollably. It doesn't look like he just saw the performance of the horses. It is estimated that those mares are the most attractive to him.

Jian Heng saw Heidou, and Heidou naturally saw Jian Heng. The little thing turned his head subconsciously, facing Jian Heng directly in front of him. His long horse face was full of guard, as if this guy still remembered what he had suffered. That lasso.

"Look at you, you still hold a grudge!" Jian Heng smiled, and rode a mountain bike to the gate of the fence. The gate of the fence has no lock, let alone a latch. There is only a chain. Lift the chain, so that the fence can be opened. opened.

  Opened the fence, Jian Heng stepped aside, and said to Heidou: "If you want to go in, go in, go in and chat with the girl!"

  Black Dou seemed a little hesitant. It was obvious that he didn’t want to go into the fence. No matter how stupid he was, he knew that it would be more comfortable to move around outside, and he couldn’t let go of the little space in the fence.

  But the herd of young mares is quite attractive to it. The so-called British horses are sad for the mares. At this time, Heidou is very entangled.

  So Heidou kept pawing the ground with his front hooves, venting his emotions.

   "Don't go in? If you don't go in, get out!" Jian Heng directly closed the door, and put the chain on the fence door again.

  After finishing this task, Jian Heng stopped talking to Heidou, and rode his mountain bike to check on the work of Huang Xiaodong and the three of them.

  Walking halfway, I found Huang Xiaodong and Zhao Wei riding a mountain bike and walking back.

   After reuniting, Jian Heng asked the two of them, "How is your work going?"

  Huang Xiaodong said: "Brother Jialiang is continuing to work now, and the two of us are going to go back to cook."

   "Don't go back, tonight's dinner, Barley and Mai, took the initiative to make an application. Come on, you all come back with me to have a look." Jian Heng continued to drive forward as he spoke.

  The two listened to Jian Heng's instructions, turned their heads and followed.

   Arriving at the place, by the afterglow of the setting sun, Jian Heng found that the few people were doing just enough work. Although some places were not cut clean, it was already considered a pass for novices.

   It's just a bit slower. From the beginning to now, the three of them have not completed one-fifth of the area of ​​Xiaogu. If Jian Heng came to do it, at least half of it would be cut out.

   "Boss, what do you think? If you are not satisfied, you are welcome to criticize and correct me!" Huang Xiaodong's attitude was quite correct.

Hearing what he said, Jian Heng smiled at Huang Xiaodong: "What's missing? It's proficiency. The oil seller only knows what he said. If you do a lot of work and get the hang of it, you'll be able to do it naturally. First of all The premise of doing well is that you have to do it! In fact, you have already done a good job!".

After finishing speaking, Jian Heng walked to the edge of the grass that had been cut, stretched out his hand and picked up one, gently rubbed the stem of the grass, and waited until the stem of the grass was broken, then looked at the color of the grass juice on his hand , and the fibrous tissue of the grass stem cracks.

  Everything is quite satisfactory, so Jian Heng nodded involuntarily, thinking: The pasture in this place is still as good as before.

This small valley is the favorite place of old Anders. Every year after summer, it is a forbidden area for all cattle and sheep. The pastures are allowed to grow. Until now, these pastures have turned dark blue and have accumulated enough nutrients. , to supply the winter needs of the entire pasture livestock.

Whenever this time, Anders will personally go into battle, driving his old tractor machine bought in 1990, dragging the old lawn mower, cutting down all the pasture one by one, and then shredding , The wind is half dry, and then compacted and packed. After one and a half months, it happens that snow falls here in Montana, and the silage is completed and can be used to feed livestock.

  This year’s pasture is still plentiful as usual, but the mowing machines have been replaced with brand new ones, and the mowers have also turned into young faces. The whole pasture seems to be less dull than before, and seems to be more energetic.

  Seeing that Jian Heng's gaze was a little wandering, or in a daze, Zhao Qi stretched out his hand to touch Huang Xiaodong who was standing beside him, and saw that he was looking at him, so he pouted in Jian Heng's direction.

  Huang Xiaodong looked at it, then shook his head at Zhao Wei. He felt that his boss must have recalled something.

  Jian Heng didn't feel sad in his heart, but felt that these three people were so enthusiastic about the work of the ranch, and felt that the ranch suddenly had a new life, so Jian Heng was in a good mood, so he walked on the motorcycle and looked at the cut pasture.

   Just as Jian Heng was checking the grass harvesting situation, Huang Xiaodong suddenly cried out happily.

   "Look, boss, look!"

When Jian Heng looked up, he saw a strong male deer not far away. It was standing on the top of a small slope, and the setting sun was just shining behind it. The whole body of the deer seemed to be reflected in the setting sun. The black deer shadow matched In the fiery red sunset, the intricate and magnificent antlers are like a work of art, blooming like the most magnificent flowers in the kingdom of heaven.

  The beauty is fascinating! The deer at this moment is like a nine-day deer coming to the world.

  Seeing the deer clearly at this time, Jian Heng really wanted to run over and kick it a few times, and at the same time yelled a few times: I'll let you pretend!

   This deer is the deer that Jane didn't kill, but came back to life in space. After it was released that day, Jian Heng didn't pay much attention to it. Even Barley and Wheat heard about it and mentioned it twice.

  Jian Heng sometimes thinks of looking for it, and finds that this guy doesn’t know where he went for a while, as if he disappeared, but now he suddenly reappeared and posed for himself, Jian Heng felt a little upset.

Naturally, the deer also saw Jian Heng, and ran down the **** happily. When the deer got down the slope, Jian Heng was a little dumbfounded, because this guy was not alone, or not a deer, and there were almost 100 people behind him. Thirty or forty heads. And they are all big and small, ranging from male deer with a big deer on their heads to young deer that have just been weaned.

  For a while, Jian Heng didn't notice that the distance between the deer and the herd was very far, almost fifty meters.

"What's the matter with you all being bosses and addicted?" Jian Heng was a little annoyed. Obviously, after the big buffalo occupied the herd and the black beans peeped at the horse herd, this deer also organized a group of small followers in Jian Heng's eyes. .

   "Boss, this deer is so beautiful!" Huang Xiaodong opened his mouth and said.

  Zhao Wei couldn't stop nodding when he heard this, and agreed, he also thought this deer was beautiful.

Zhao Wei has seen many deer, although most of them are in the zoo, but all the deer he has seen are not as beautiful as this one. There is a kind of ethereal movement, and every movement seems to reveal an indescribable beauty.

  The deer saw Jian Heng, also saw Huang Xiaodong and Zhao Wei, after seeing them, the deer stopped, stood on the small **** and yelled twice.

  The follower deer who had been following him from a long distance stopped immediately when they heard the call, no matter how big or small they all raised their heads and looked forward.

  Behind Jian Heng, Huang Xiaodong and Zhao Wei began to chat.

   "Do you think this deer is considered American or our ranch?" Huang Xiaodong asked.

  Zhao Wei said very directly: "It is ours to eat the grass of our pasture and live on our land. What the **** is the U.S. government doing?!"

  The two were delighted that a herd of deer had fallen to the pasture in vain.

  Jian Heng was thinking about it at this time, thinking of the four vacant positions, and didn't know which other four animals were there.

   "Boss, boss!"

   Feeling someone talking to him, Jian Heng came back to his senses: "What's the matter?"

   "You said it would be okay if we killed one of this deer?" After Huang Xiaodong finished speaking, he added: "I heard that venison is a great tonic."

"If you want to eat it, go shoot one yourself. Our ranch has a hunting license. Even if you don't, you sneak into the village. If you don't want to shoot, no one cares about you. But the best thing is to go to an interrogation "Jian Heng said.

  Zhao Wei asked again: "Boss, are there guns in the ranch?"

   Hearing Zhao Wei's question, Jian Heng remembered that there is a gun in his own space, but the name of the ranch doesn't even have a hair on it.

Montana is not New York, the gun barrel is very strict, almost every household here has a gun, although Jian Heng seems to have met a lot of people these days, in fact, this is what Jian Heng rushed to get together, if You drive on the highway at will, and you don’t necessarily meet a person for a long time. Let’s put it this way, the largest city in Montana is Billings. Remember how many people are in the largest city in the state, 100,000 people!

   There are not even the number of people in a small county in China, so if you drive in Montana, you may not meet a few cars in an hour.

  So the people here feel very enthusiastic. Whenever two cars meet on the road, they will greet each other. In fact, they don’t know each other at all, just because they see people happy!

  In a place with so few people, guns are almost an essential thing in life, not to mention Jian Heng's ranch has a hunting license, which can hunt a certain number of gray wolves, bears and bison.

   "Let's wait for a while. After a while, I'll go and buy a gun. Those of you who can apply can also apply for a gun license. You two probably can't, Jialiang should be able to," Jian Heng said.

  As soon as they heard the gun, the eyes of Huang Xiaodong and Zhao Wei suddenly lit up.
