pasture leisure

Chapter 552 Spring is here
The town is bustling, and the happiest thing is not the adults who have made a little money, but Xiao Xiao, who used to play almost all at the ski resort, but now that he is better, a group of children get together again, and they play directly Call someone who forgets to sleep and eat, go out with adults early in the morning, and don't come back until the sun goes down.

But the good times always come to an end. After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month in China, Xiao Xiao’s good days are over, and the hellish life begins.

Not school, but homework.

Of course, after the fifteenth day, the most important thing for adults is to go back to China. Zhang Jiaren and others are going back to China. Zhang Chi and his wife were originally going to be sent to Los Angeles, but because of Melika's health, only Zhang Jiaren Chi go to send.

Stayed in Los Angeles for one night, and arrived at the airport the next day. After Zhang Chi sent his family on the plane, he didn't go back to Brother Dawen's house, but took the plane directly back to Folsom.

When I got home, I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, because the house was too quiet, and sometimes there would be a voice in my head suddenly. Zhang Chi wanted to respond, but found that there was no one around.

Not only Zhang Chi, but even the guys like Moji, seemed a little unaccustomed to this normal tranquility.

When I was in Zhang Chi's hometown, after the fifteenth day, it was almost spring. At this time, the weather outside was already seven or eight degrees, and the lowest temperature was above zero, so I could start farming soon.

But it is definitely not possible in Folsom, because the snow here has not melted, the freeze has not disappeared, the temperature is still in the minus ten degrees during the day, and it is even colder at night.

After the Spring Festival, there were two more snowfalls, and then Zhang Chi's opportunity to make money came.

What opportunity to make money is still selling pasture.The cattle in Zhang Chi’s family eat less grass, which is half less than that of other families. Because they eat big beard yellow during the day, the part of the grass that was originally used for emergency is saved.

And this is also the time of the year when the price of fodder is the most expensive, not to mention that there have been two snowfalls in a row, which has caused the price of fodder to surge up.

So Zhang Chi sold the excess fodder in a hurry, and the rest was enough to last until the snowflakes melted this spring.

Of course, these are small money. Cheese is the most profitable part of Zhang Chi Ranch now. The moldy cheese produced by Zhang Chi Ranch is very popular now, because Melika sells it at a good price, so now the ranch makes most of its money. It's not selling cattle or sheep, it's moldy cheese that smells like feces.

It can make money, and Zhang Chi doesn't think it stinks. Of course, if you let him eat it, he still won't eat it, but it doesn't prevent this guy from praising his own cheese while nauseated.

At the end of February and the beginning of March, the two steeds of Great Secret Realm and Silly Damu brought Zhang Chi amazing income. The two horses each won an important race for horse life, and both broke the field record of the three-year-old horse. .

The most important thing for Zhang Chi is that Silly Damu brought him a prize of 78 US dollars, while the Great Secret Realm brought a prize of 70 US dollars.

This is the part that Zhang Chichun got, and it is also the bonus after the part of the driver and the jockey is removed.

After seeing the money, Zhang Chi regained his energy in an instant, and decided to go to the scene to watch the next game.

It is probably impossible for him not to watch this race, because the two horses will compete together in the next race, chasing the highest honor in a horse's life-the Triple Crown.

The first game, which is the first leg of the game, will be held in the Kentucky Derby in May, with a schedule of 2000m!

There is still more than a month before the race, and Zhang Chi is only happy for the two horses for a few days, because the more than 100 million US dollars in his pocket has become the bank's money before it is warmed up.

In the days that followed, Zhang Chi still had a leisurely life. He usually found some work on the ranch, or took his daughter with him. The little girl can eat and grow now, and she is much heavier than when she was just born. Well, the little girl looks like a little lotus root festival.

Zhang Chi's biggest hobby now is blowing his daughter's belly and making fart-like sounds, which makes him happy, and Xiao Hui also enjoys it. For such a silly game, both father and daughter can play for a long time.

As the days passed, the temperature continued to rise, and the originally bare trees and gray mountains began to slowly change a little bit.

With more and more changes, at this time everyone feels that spring here is coming.

Spring is a very good season for farmers, and it is also a very yearning season for ranchers. Amber cowboys always have a saying: there are only two seasons in a year: winter and spring!
There is no summer here, the highest temperature is only around [-] degrees, where does summer come from!
Anyway, after almost half a year of nesting, Amber people seem to be gradually waking up, and there are more and more people on the central road of the town. There are more and more.

Zhang Chi was holding his daughter in his arms at noon, and the father and son were strolling.

At this moment, Xiaohui has already started humming.

My daughter is able to hum. At the beginning, Zhang Chi and Melika were very excited, but after the excitement passed, there were only two words left: tiring!

Other places for the little girl, such as sleeping, shitting and urinating, these are really not very annoying, but as long as you go over and let her see it, you must hug her and start walking. Crying is not the kind that bursts into tears, but the kind that does not shed tears.

Melika is not used to the baby, she sometimes hugs and sometimes doesn’t, most of the time she finds that the girl is awake, not peeing or pulling, and still fussing after feeding, so she puts the baby directly Step aside and leave her alone.

But Zhang Chi can't, maybe the relationship between father and daughter is better. Zhang Chi can't hear his daughter howling, and sometimes he doesn't want to pamper the child, but when his daughter cries, Zhang Chi feels his heart tremble, so Generally, within a minute or two at most, Zhang Chi will pick up his daughter.

Then the father and daughter turned around like this, inside and outside the house, sometimes even tied the little girl around their chests, and rode Chiyan Mountain to inspect the pasture.

Don't look at such a young child, he really has a lot of eyes. It didn't take long for Zhang Chi and Melika to find out that if it was Melika who came to change the diaper, the little girl would lie down obediently. , Then you must howl, this is the meaning of urging your own father to take him out to play.

I can't bear it, I really can't bear it!

So today, as usual, the father and daughter came out for a stroll, walking aimlessly.

At this time, the weather during the day had reached zero, and the snow had begun to melt. The snow that had covered the whole winter melted, and naturally began to expose the ground.

At this time, if you go to other pastures, the ground will not be easy to walk on. The snow water from the snow has soaked into the ground, and the grass in the ground has not yet emerged. There is an obvious footprint when you go down.

Then look at the feet, there must be a puddle of mud on the shoes.

But there is no such thing in Zhangchi Ranch. When the snow melts, the big beard grass has already started to turn green, and most of the grass stems are already about [-] to [-] centimeters. Although a few parts will have mud, most of them are covered with mud. This mud is covered with grass.

It is also because of this that people will sink a little when they step on it, but there is absolutely not much mud on the boots.

Holding his daughter in his arms, Zhang Chi hummed a little tune, and the father and daughter came to the cowshed.

At this time, except for the newly born calves, or the cows taking care of the calves, there is no need for other cows to enter the cowshed at night.

There are not many cows in the cowshed at night, so there is not so much cow dung to clean. The cowshed that originally required two or three people to take care of it now has only one person, the eldest son of Cannon, the invisible little worker of Zhangchi Ranch—— Dieter.

"BOSS!"

Seeing Zhang Chi coming in, Dieter did not stop what he was doing, but continued to work at the original speed.

Zhang Chi likes Dieter very much. This kid is a bit like his old man who is diligent, but there is still a big difference between the father and son, that is, Dieter is talkative and enthusiastic, unlike Cannon, who can't beat a whole fart with a stick Come.

Zhang Chi asked casually, which is also a question that is often asked by old people, how is the calf, how is the cow, and how is the milk production this morning.

Dieter really knew, and knew very clearly.

"The boy is a cowboy," Zhang Chi praised Dieter as usual.

After wandering around the cowshed for about two or three minutes, Zhang Chi was about to leave with his daughter in his arms. After all, it was still a cowshed. Even if the door was opened to dispel the smell, there was still the smell of cow dung and urine.

Although grass-fed cow dung does not have the smell of feed, poop is still poop, and it will not smell good no matter what, so the smell is still there.

I took my daughter out of the cowshed and came to the stables, and found that there were no horses in the stables. Except for the horses used by the cowboys, the rest were probably driven out.

The stables had obviously been cleaned. Zhang Chi checked several compartments but found no balls of horse manure.

Just as I was about to go out, I noticed something moving in the haystack next to me.

At first, Zhang Chi thought it was Erhu's second-born Gouwazi, so he thought, let's take a look, so he took his daughter to the side of the haystack, and stretched out his hand to poke it.

Ouch!

Pushing aside the haystack, Zhang Chi found a bald head, and was shocked.

Take a closer look, isn't it the big turtle that my sister-in-law sent over last year!

"How did you wake up?"

The big tortoise, which has been sleeping for several months, finally ended its hibernation today.

What can a tortoise do when it opens its eyes after hibernating for several months?
Of course I was looking for something to eat.

Originally, the tortoise opened its eyes and wanted to find Zhang Chi, but who knew that it hadn't gotten out of its hibernation place before it saw the target person automatically appearing in front of its eyes.

Have you ever seen a turtle laugh?
Or the kind of particularly wretched kind of laugh.

It was also the first time Zhang Chi saw it, and it was hanging on the face of the old turtle in front of Zhang Chi at the moment.

"My pussy!"

Zhang Chi was a little speechless.

"Yeah! Mmm! Yah! Yah!"

Seeing the tortoise, Xiaohui was so excited that she couldn't help twisting her body, and stretched out her hand to grab her father's hair, but at the same time, she didn't know what to express in baby language.
