Happy Farm Ranch

Chapter 117 Dog Sledding
"It's dangerous for you to drive there! If you say that everything else is good here, the traffic is too inconvenient." My mother was packing up the dishes, and when she heard them talking about driving in the snow, she couldn't help but start to worry again. "It's better now that the first snow has just fallen, and the whole mountain will be sealed when there is more snow in the future. What can I do then? I can find a way to go down the mountain alone, but it's really difficult to transport so many vegetables. It is easy to be dangerous if you are not careful on the road.

If fresh vegetables are not transported away, they are not easy to store here.The cellar is not that big, so it can be covered if it is slightly hot; if it is cold and easy to freeze, you have to think of a reliable method. "

Sumu has a lot of space, so naturally he doesn't have to worry about the problem of transporting vegetables out.It's just that I can't tell the truth now, so I can only wave my hands and smile: "There must be a way for the car to reach the mountain, so don't worry about it. After eating and drinking, we are going to go to the pasture first."

"If you go to the ranch, the Pioneer can't be opened now, right?" An Lu was peeling peanuts for snacks, and was unexpectedly stolen by a naughty biscuit. She looked outside and asked, "Such heavy snow, auntie Do we have rain boots at home? The pasture is a bit far away, and I’m afraid our boots will get soaked if we walk there.”

The snow outside is vast, at least ten centimeters thick.

However, An Lu and Liang Fei both went back once when the weather was just cold, and they didn't bring too many clothes and shoes.The most important thing is that I didn't expect Huatanao's winter to be so strong, and the first snow fell so heavily, so I didn't bring waterproof snow boots or anything.

Although the cotton shoes they are wearing are warm enough, they are not suitable for long treks in the snow.

"What kind of rain boots do you want? It's so far from home to the ranch, can you still walk there?" Dad laughed, and whistled to call Heihu, Kaka and other big dogs into the house. "Who's ever been on a dog sled? Haven't you? Today I'll show you what I left over from my childhood!"

Hearing the words "dog sledding", An Lu immediately jumped up with joy; even Liang Fei was full of anticipation, and hurriedly asked; although Su Mu had thought about playing like this in winter before, he didn't expect happiness to come so suddenly. Quickly asked: "Does our family have a sled? Dad, did you often play with it when you were a child? We have never tried it, so we won't get thrown?"

"Isn't it just a dog sledding, with no technical content. I remember when I was a child, your grandpa could do everything with his hands. In winter, it's more fun! In addition to going out to ride a sled, you can also go to the frozen river to play in the snow; On the hillside, sliding down on a wooden plank, building a snowman and having a snowball fight are all pediatrics."

Dad talked about the games he played when he was a child, and he was a little excited for a while. Grandpa, grandma and mother were brought back memories, and they all participated in telling them about the entertainment in Huatanao winter many years ago.

Such as fishing in ice holes, grinding ice lamps, making frozen flowers, etc., Su Mu and the other young people were envious.

God talked for a while, and everyone was rested. Dad smiled and took out a simple sled from the wing room, "I have prepared it for you a long time ago. Heihu and the others are obedient. It is convenient and quick for you to go out on the sled." It's fun. It's just the same, you must pay attention to safety, don't come up and run too fast and get thrown out!"

Su Mu hurriedly stepped forward to look at the simple sled that his father had made.

In fact, it is a simple seat, handle and rope cover installed on a large wooden board; look at the bottom of the sled, and there are two strands of shiny thick iron wire.

When the sled is placed on the snow, the two wires touch the ground first, which can reduce the friction and make it easier for the dogs to pull.

In this way, the whole sled will easily slip on the snow, so my father told me to run slowly to avoid being thrown out due to poor control at the beginning.

"Come here, Heihu, you take the lead and lead them!" Although they were all raised in the space by themselves, Su Mu's feelings for Heihu and Dahui seem to be much deeper, and the second batch of dogs There seems to be a lot less intimacy between us.Therefore, when encountering more important matters, he still likes to let Hei Hu take the lead.

Heihu cooperated very well, and obediently stood there waiting for Su Mu's father to put the noose on.

Five super big dogs, all obediently ready, Hei Hu and his wife——"Coke" lead the way.As the leader of the whole sled team; followed by three big dogs in neat rows, followed by a simple sled pulled by a long rope.

Although a bit simple, it also looks very cool.

Especially the one made by Dad is very strong, and the whole homemade sled reveals a rustic atmosphere.

After all, Su Mu is the owner of this group of dogs, so it is better for him to give orders. He stands at the front of the sled and acts as the driver; Don't dare to relax.

"Be sure to slow down at the beginning, just let them trot; remember to slow down the speed when parking, otherwise the sled may rush over and hit the dog!" Dad told all the precautions in the yard , then opened the courtyard door and said with a smile: "Get ready to go, let the boy scouts in the village see it, it's time to shout to please you again!"

"Hey, I'll try it first. If it's fun, I'll take them for a ride!" Su Muxiong stood proudly in front of the sled, waved at his parents, pulled the rein and said: "Drive, drive! Black Tiger Run slowly, let's head for the ranch!"

Upon hearing the order, Heihu and his wife raised their legs and ran forward in a tacit understanding, and the three big dogs following behind also began to exert their strength.

Fortunately, the snow was very thick, and the sled made by Su Mu's father was of very good quality. The two strands of iron wires ran in smoothly with the snow surface. It was a little difficult at the beginning, but after trotting, it was very easy to pull three people.

The dogs had a blast running and the sled ran smoothly on the snow.

After leaving the house, I ran out of the village along the small road in the village. On the way, I met many villagers who had breakfast and went to work in the farms and pastures.

"Hey, Muzi really knows how to play! You learned how to drive a car from the boss, right?"

"Not to mention running really fast, I'll try to get one later!"

"The family's horses, mules, and little donkeys are fine. If you want to learn from Muzi, you have to borrow a dog from their house!"

"Why didn't I think that dogs can pull sleds? It's a good idea. Let my dog ​​try it when I have time."

"You've got it, that cowardly dog ​​of yours, it's no wonder if it doesn't get tired and stupid!"

……

Running all the way, the villagers I met greeted each other, and began to talk and laugh about the sled driven by Su Mu.

The boy scouts saw it, and ran behind the sled howling one by one, screaming enviously!Fortunately, Su Mu promised to let them enjoy the fun later, so that the children didn't envy him and drag them down...
