Rural life in America

Chapter 45 Christina's Evaluation
Zhang Hao went up the mountain with a big rucksack on his back, and he feels quite bad about himself now; not because of the weight, but because he is worried about his own image.

Christina carried Zhang Hao's Remington 700 on her back, and a USP45 with relatively small recoil was pinned to her waist. This is the most rigorously tested pistol in history, so its performance has always been relatively strong.

Christina's physical fitness is still good, and she has never complained of suffering or fatigue; not only is she carrying a gun, but she is also carrying camping tableware.

The two of them didn't have any sense of hunting at all. They seemed to be traveling in mountains and rivers; they never took out their guns, and they didn't go to the thorny jungle that was more difficult to walk. They mostly went to places that looked good.

Lunch is easy to settle. Zhang Hao brought potatoes and beef, which can be used to satisfy his hunger.

Zhang Hao looked for firewood, although it seemed that firewood was everywhere in the mountains, he just needed to find some dry firewood; fortunately, he didn't need to go too far, that is, he started to do it directly by the empty stream It's lunch.

Working with men and women is not tiring, Zhang Hao is doing physical work, and Christina is burning fire and water with great interest.

Christina, who was humming, boiled the hot water and made two cups of instant coffee; it could be seen that these two people came to the mountain for a date.

Christina hummed a song and wrapped the potatoes in tin foil and threw them into the fire. She didn't seem to be the type who was very good at cooking.

"Hao, how many potatoes do you want?"

Zhang Hao, who was busy throwing the picnic mat, replied without looking back, "It may take five or six, and then grill me a big steak. I think it might be better this way, you know I actually eat a lot."

Christina nodded. She had eaten with Zhang Hao a few times, and knew that Zhang Hao didn't seem to be a very strong person, but his appetite was really big, so that she often wondered if Zhang Hao's stomach was a black hole .

As for Zhang Hao's explanation, he is a martial arts practitioner with strong energy and blood, so he has a strong digestion ability; this is something that Christina agrees with, and even wants to learn Kung Fu.

While grilling the meat, Christina asked: "Hao, do you have some sayings about inheritance of your martial arts? I have watched some movies and listened to some people's comments. Many of them think that these martial arts will not be passed down. to a woman."

Zhang Hao shook his head and said: "There are not many restrictions. If you want to learn, I am willing to teach you. But you can't become a master of fighting. At best, it can make you healthier."

Christina jumped up to Zhang Hao and said excitedly: "I don't want to become very strong, I just want to find a suitable way of exercising. I want to be like you, able to eat a lot, but don't worry Body. You know, I'm not slim!"

Zhang Hao glanced at Christina speechlessly, really not knowing what to say.

To be honest, Christina is indeed not a slender type, she has a somewhat plump figure.

And now Christina's starting point for wanting to learn Kung Fu is really speechless. It's not about strengthening her body or becoming stronger. She just wants to find an answer that can satisfy her appetite without worrying about her figure.

It seemed a bit speechless, but Zhang Hao thought it was very good.

If Christina develops a whole body of muscles, if Christina becomes King Kong Barbie, Zhang Hao will want to cry without tears. He must not let Christina have a whole body of muscles!
While roasting the meat, Zhang Hao was chatting with Christina about kung fu; although Zhang Hao is not yet an invincible master, it is definitely no problem to teach Christina some superficial kung fu, as long as he keeps fit .

The two of them had a simple lunch, took a short rest, and continued to set off.

It's autumn, although Oregon is not too cold, but it's autumn after all; fortunately, there are some wild flowers on the mountain, Christina is very interested, she picked some wild flowers, weaved a wreath and wore it.

Zhang Hao cheerfully took out his mobile phone to take pictures for Christina, and really meant that some people were more charming than Huajiao.

The two of them just wandered through the lush and dense forest, stepping on the soft dead branches and fallen leaves and pine needles, and they didn't have any intention of looking for prey at all.

It's not that there is no prey, but it's because I'm too lazy to hunt; I saw some rabbits and pheasants, but I just couldn't get interested.For them, hunting may be just an excuse, and dating in the mountains is the most important thing.

Christina was a little tired, so she held Zhang Hao's hand; it was this space that belonged to two people, so she could get to know Zhang Hao better.

"Hao, you seem to know a lot about animals, don't you? You know horse racing, you're good at raising cattle, and even your dogs and parrots seem so smart!"

Zhang Hao smiled complacently, and said confidently: "Perhaps it can be said that I know some animals very well. I certainly can't say so many seemingly professional and reasonable things like some zoologists, but I can guarantee that I know a lot. Of course, I can't know every kind of animal, and if it is a relatively rare animal, I will know a little."

Christina asked, "Like?"

Zhang Hao thought for a while, and then said, "I think I want to know about animals like eagles. You know that there is a long history of training eagles in my country. They are good helpers for hunting. I think if I can raise a few I’m willing to give it a try if I’m a tiger, but forget about the lions, I don’t seem to have any information about them.”

Christina stared blankly at Zhang Hao, she felt that Zhang Hao seemed to be bragging, but seeing Zhang Hao's confident appearance, coupled with the understanding of this period of time, she felt that Zhang Hao was not the kind who liked to be in front of women. Bragging character.

Seeing Zhang Hao leading the way, Christina held Zhang Hao's hand tightly and moved forward.

"Hao, you know, you are a very attractive person!"

Zhang Hao glanced back at Christina, and asked with a smile, "Are you sure? I hardly hear such comments."

Christina said affirmatively, "Yes, I insist on this. You are very sunny and optimistic, and I can feel that you are very happy. Although you seemed a bit abrupt when we first met, I forgive you."

Zhang Hao held Christina's hand tightly, and pulled it hard, so that Christina could easily climb up the small slope with her strength.

Christina continued: "I was a little curious about you at first, just because you seemed so good at horse racing. When I found out you had a daughter, I thought maybe I needed to distance myself from you. I could feel your interest in I have a crush, you don't have to deny it. Xixi is cute, but I didn't know her at first, and I don't know how to date a guy who has a girl, it's complicated."

Zhang Hao continued to lead the way in silence, this matter is a fact.

Christina continued seriously: "Knowing you longer and getting to know you better, I can feel safe with you. It's not because I know you can kung fu, but because you Very responsible, you always want to take care of your family, even if you suffer a lot, even if you encounter a lot of difficulties, but you always work hard."

Zhang Hao looked back at Christina and said: "A man will mature after having a child. I was not mature at all before, so my family has been worrying about me."

Christina shook her head and said: "Not every man will mature after having children. You should know how many children in this country have no one to take care of them. I believe you are also very clear that many people will be killed after encountering difficulties. Totally beat. But you haven't, you've been working; you've been working hard before you didn't have the ranch, and now you're looking a little better financially, but I know you've been working hard."

Zhang Hao admits to this point, he has indeed always taken care of his family.

Before getting the inheritance, although he worked hard and didn't earn much money, he has been working hard.But after he got the inheritance, he seemed to be a little idle and idle; it was just that he never let go of things like making money and developing his career.

Zhang Hao admits that he has many unreliable places, but he also knows that he still has some advantages.

Apparently Christina thinks so too: "You know, I've had guys courting me since I was a kid. Maybe they see me as pretty, maybe they want to date me to show their excellence. I sometimes It would be fun, there is no woman who doesn't like beauty. But I hate those people, they only think about how to ask girls or get their bodies, but they don't want to take responsibility at all, it makes me feel sick."

Well, Zhang Hao became serious. He glanced back at Christina and said, "I'm not that kind of person."

Christina showed a smile, "Maybe you hide it very deeply, so I need to continue to test you. This is a test. Now there are only two of us in the mountain. Don't let me down!"

Zhang Hao glanced at Christina who was smiling jokingly, and continued to lead the way speechlessly!
