pasture leisure

After the meal, Zhang Chi and everyone cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks together, like washing dishes, which is now done by the elders, so Zhang Chi is at leisure.

"What are you going to do?"

Li Xiumei walked out of the kitchen and saw Zhang Chi slipping towards the door, so she asked aloud.

"I'm going out for a stroll, to digest food, do you want to go together?" Zhang Chi asked.

Li Xiumei replied: "I won't go, why don't you ask Xiaomei if she wants to go?"

After hearing this, Zhang Chi went back upstairs and called Melica. Originally, he responded casually, but today Melica actually agreed, so Zhang Chi waited for Melica to change, and the two went downstairs together.

At the door, I saw my mother Li Xiumei again.

"Look at Xiaomei, if you hurt my granddaughter, see how I will deal with you." Li Xiumei was very satisfied, seeing her son and daughter-in-law, Li Xiumei nodded involuntarily, threatened her son in satisfaction, and then let Xiaomei go. The two went out.

The two took a walk instead of riding a horse, talking in a low voice while walking aimlessly in the pasture.

Unknowingly, the two passed near the fence.

Melika found a horse in the pen by the light, so she asked, "Why did Cannon forget a horse here today?"

Zhang Chi looked up and said with a smile: "It's not that Cannon forgot, this horse was thrown here by me, it's the one my sister wanted."

Melika laughed and said, "It turned out to be that smart horse."

In the afternoon, when she heard Zhang Juan talking about the horse, she laughed a few times.Melika had never heard of such a horse, but since she knew it was very smart, she knew that it was not easy to train.

Some people say that you are not talking nonsense. A smart horse is not trained, but a stupid horse is easy to train?This is true or not, a horse that is too stupid can only pull a cart, the so-called stupid horse is a stallion, and a very smart horse is not trained, not because it has a problem with its understanding, but because all smart things have a The commonality is that they love leisure and hate work.

Horses are like this, a smart horse likes to work too much, and works all day long, doesn't it sound strange to you?
"I have no choice but to keep it here. I want to starve it for a few days before I talk about it. If it doesn't work, just throw it away," Zhang Chi said.

Melika thought for a while and said: "Actually, it's quite easy to train. You can see what it is afraid of, and then just use this trick on it. However, it is dangerous to train it well, because once you ride it , if it suddenly wants to play tricks one day, you will be fooled."

Zhang Chi knows that this is why some good horses get in the way of the owner.

"So...forget it" Zhang Chi felt his head was muddled, and he still didn't think about this bastard.

The two didn't stay by the fence either, but continued to walk forward.

When they arrived at the cowshed, the couple heard voices coming from inside, so they stood at the door curiously and looked inside, only to find that Cannon and other cowboys were in the cowshed.

"what happened?"

Zhang Chi stood at the door and asked curiously into the room.

When Cannon and the others heard the movement, they turned their heads and looked at the door. When they saw Zhang Chi and his wife coming, they all greeted each other.

In addition to Cannon, there are also cattle dogs on the ranch. They were also very happy to see Zhang Chi and Zhang Chi. They wagged their tails and approached Zhang Chi and his wife one by one, begging to pet them one after another.

The two entered the cowshed, and saw several cows in the cowshed next to them, one of which obviously had just given birth to a calf, lying motionless on the ground, and beside it was a calf whose hair was not dry yet.

The cows next to them also have bulging bellies, and it seems that the production is only a few days away.

"How about it?"

Seeing this posture, both Zhang Chi and Melika understood that the cowboys like Cannon drove some cows that were about to give birth to the cowshed and took special care of them.

The two don't know the reason, but Cannon always has his reasons for doing this.

"No problem. It's not long after giving birth. The cow doesn't have much strength yet. Feed some nutrient solution later. We're waiting for the calf to get up and drink the first milk." Cannon, Zhang Chi, and Melika simply said Introduced a bit.

Zhang Chi looked at whether it was a cow or a calf, but there was no special reaction, so he let the matter go.

"How is your and Brian's house going?" Zhang Chi asked.

Cannon said: "It's almost capped, and it will be almost a month and a half later."

Zhang Chi felt a little strange: "Why did it take so long?"

When building a house for himself for the first time, Zhang Chi calculated that it didn’t take such a long time for a house that was about the same size. Why is it taking so long now.

Cannon explained: "We didn't let them hurry up. Anyway, I'm not in a hurry to move in. My parents won't come over until a month or two later. It's built so early, and I'm lonely even if I live in it alone."

Only then did Zhang Chi understand that it turned out that Lao Xu took the time to help the two build it. The disadvantage is that it takes longer, and the advantage is that the construction is about [-]% cheaper.

Zhang Chi didn't like this, but it didn't mean that Cannon and Brian didn't like it, so the two readily accepted Lao Xu's suggestion.

After chatting with Cannon and others for a while, Zhang Chi and his wife decided to leave and continue their business of digestion.

Just as he walked to the gate of the cowshed, Zhang Chi's cell phone rang.

"Who is it?" Melika asked casually.

Generally speaking, Zhang Chi doesn't have many phone calls. First of all, he doesn't have many friends, and most of his friends are also contacted by information, so it's quite strange to call suddenly at night.

"Old Xu!"

Zhang Chi took out his cell phone and took a look, then answered the call.

"Hey Lao Zhang".

"It's me, what's the matter?" Zhang Chi replied with a smile.

"Why can't I call you?"

Zhang Chi laughed happily: "Okay, but you really won't be so idle. I just mentioned to Cannon and the others about making money here. It's okay, a master of time management, you can make money in the cracks. Get the money!"

"Life is bitter, what else can I say, if I have a good wife like you, and have such a large piece of land, I will be as leisurely as you," Old Xu said to Zhang Chi.

"Is there still a place to live at home?"

Soon Lao Xu showed up and asked Zhang Chi if he could still stay at home.

Zhang Chi said, "How many people do you have?"

"Two or three people," said Old Xu.

Zhang Chi said: "Is the cowboy dormitory okay?"

"Okay, okay, we just sleep for one night. Actually, you can't live there. I'm going to spend the night in the car here. We'll go there right away. Oh, by the way, is there any food at home? It's troublesome." Help me prepare some," Old Xu said.

Zhang Chi naturally nodded and agreed: "Can I have beef or something?"

"Of course!"

After finalizing the matter, Lao Xu came to Zhang Chi Ranch, and Zhang Chi went back with Melika.

When he got home, Zhang Chi took some steaks and thawed them in the microwave, then prepared some side dishes and some drinking water, and put them together in an empty cowboy dormitory.

After waiting for a long time, Zhang Chi heard the movement outside, and when he came out, he found that Lao Xu was driving a car and parked a car about ten meters away from the door.

The cowboy dormitory was built by old Xu. How could he not know where this place is? Naturally, he could find the door by himself without Zhang Chi's help.

"This is Boss Zhang, and these are my two friends." Lao Xu introduced Zhang Chi as soon as he got off the car.

There were two people who came with Lao Xu, both in their forties, one was chubby, and the other was still chubby, looking like a perfect boss.

After getting to know each other for a while, Zhang Chi signaled everyone to enter the house.

But Lao Xu stopped him and said to Zhang Chi: "I'm going to see my grandparents, uncles and aunts. I haven't prepared anything when I come here temporarily, but I must go to say hello. You two go in and wait for me for a while."

As he said that, Lao Xu took Zhang Chi and met Zhang Chi's family together.

When I waited to come back, it was already half an hour later.

Back at the cowboy dormitory, Lao Xu skillfully fried the steak, and Zhang Chi also helped. As for the other two, they obviously have limited self-care ability and wanted to help, but the more they helped, the more chaotic they became. Might as well not help.

The rice is made quickly, just fry a few steaks and grill some side dishes.

When it was time to eat, Cannon got two more bottles of Wuliangye, and insisted on bringing Zhang Chi to drink a couple of sips together.

Although the other two don't know how to cook, they still have a knack for drinking, so when they see someone who looks like an engineer, they like to have a drink at night.

"That neighbor of yours is too insignificant."

After Lao Xu ate two mouthfuls of food and drank a mouthful of wine, he began to criticize Zhang Chi's good neighbor Lao Liu.

Zhang Chi smiled and said, "You know?"

"I thought it would be better when I came to the United States, but I still think highly of him..." Old Xu said again.

Zhang Chi smiled and didn't answer him.

Old Xu continued: "Didn't his house burn down? I thought he would have to build a house. I can take this job. Who knew that the promise was good on the phone. When I came here to take a look, what the hell... ...he is going to sign a contract with someone else."

"You can't eat his house."

Zhang Chi felt that Lao Xu also wanted to be blind. Lao Liu is indeed not a joke, but Lao Liu is really unambiguous in terms of enjoyment. He wants to rebuild the house. How could it be done by a two-handed engineering team like Lao Xu? ok.

"Didn't I bring friends here? These two are good players," said Old Xu.

Zhang Chi could only smirk beside him, but he felt that Lao Xu was thinking too much. If he stood in Lao Liu's position, he would not be able to hand over the project to Lao Xu. Lao Liu's original home, before it burned down It is also a top-level mansion. As far as Lao Xu's airs are concerned, he probably doesn't even have qualifications. To put it bluntly, Lao Xu's engineering team is an assembly team. Who can use his own mansion to train him.

But seeing Lao Xu's anger here, Zhang Chi couldn't say it.

After listening for a while, Zhang Chi realized that Lao Xu didn't want to take the whole thing, but wanted to take a section. According to the name, it might be called a second bag. Originally, Lao Liu agreed, but Lao Liu came back today and regretted it.

In short, it was such a trivial matter, and Lao Xu was not happy. It was he who found someone, that is, the two next to him.
