Little Life on An American Ranch

  Chapter 393 Speechless Trouble

  When Jian Heng said that he was going to see Mrs. Curtis, the expressions on both Wei and Jack's faces became a little unnatural.

   Jian Heng naturally saw it, so he asked the two of them with a cold face: "Did you do something to hurt Mrs. Curtis and the group?"

  The sound was a bit cold at the beginning, and it was as cold as a refrigerator in the end. If Mrs. Curtis and the others suffered misfortune in their own space, Jian Heng really didn't know how to face Mrs. Curtis.

But after thinking about it for a while, I think it's not possible, because even if it is Thunder Blade or White Melon united together, Mrs. Curtis still has the strength to fight, because Jian Heng added self-confidence to the children who are familiar with him. Paul's skill, that is, the space water that has fed four children, two men, two women, including Mrs. Curtis of course.

  Jian Heng's question suddenly startled both Wei and Jack, and they immediately denied it.

  Wei said: "How is it possible? We really wanted to try our best to help them, but they didn't want to."

  Jack also argued: "Yes, yes, we are also like this here. We want to help them, but they also don't accept it."

  Jian Heng thought for a while and said, "Forget it, you two should go and have a look with me, are they still living in your Thunder Blade?"

  Wei immediately said: "It's gone. The old lady chose a piece of land and borrowed some equipment. They cultivated and planted it by themselves, and became self-sufficient. Now they live quite well."

  While listening to Wei's explanation, Jian Heng 'floated' in the direction of Wei's finger. As for Wei and Jack, the four dog legs naturally followed Jian Heng on horseback.

The place the old lady chose was quite far away from the two villages, and Jian Heng didn't know that there would be such a place in his own space, a small **** facing the sun, with little ups and downs, that is, a small **** with a height of one or two hundred meters. Hill, the village where Mrs. Curtis leads a group of children is on this hill.

Not to mention, the village of the old lady is quite distinctive. It is all made of wood, and there is no paint or other things in the space, let alone any nails. It is completely put together. Of course, Based on their ability, they are not as strong as the Chinese mortise and tenon structure, but the simplest mortise and tenon joint.

  But the walls with the bark on the logs gave Jian Heng a very special feeling, a rough beauty.

  However, this kind of land can only be appreciated if you have enough to eat and drink. People who don’t have enough to eat and drink can’t see how beautiful such a house is.

   "The house is well built, much better than the two of you at the beginning." Jian Heng laughed and joked about Weihe Jack.

   Wei and Jack looked at each other, and they both followed Jian Heng happily. Neither of them mentioned their conditions, nor did they mention that they not only contributed people but also made efforts, otherwise how could such a large village be built with an old lady and hundreds of children.

   Both of them have one mind, as long as the man in front of him is happy, as for the truth, the two don't care, let alone tell the difference.

  Old lady Curtis’s village is different, because she is not affiliated, Jian Heng’s side has already reached the gate, and no one came out to greet her.

   "..."

   Seeing that Jack was about to roar into the stockade, Jian Heng immediately waved his hand to stop him, and walked in with great interest.

Standing at the gate of the stockade and pushing it lightly, he found that the door was not closed. After a soft squeak, Jian Heng saw a group of children playing on the large empty field in the stockade. There were no toys, they were all Simple animal bones, wooden things, but with these things, these children turned into mud monkeys one by one.

   "Uncle Jean!"

  A child saw Jian Heng with sharp eyes, let out a joyful cry, and immediately ran towards Jian Heng.

   In this way, Jian Heng was quickly surrounded by a group of children in the center.

  Jian Heng saw a circle of small hands reaching out in front of him, obviously thinking about begging for some snacks from him again, but Jian Heng didn't bring them this time, so the scene was a bit embarrassing.

   "Stop surrounding Uncle Jean, begging for things as soon as you come, do you know how to be polite?!" At this moment, a stern voice came from behind Jian Heng.

   Jian Heng turned his head and found that Mrs. Coty had been standing not far behind him at some point.

  When a group of children heard Mrs. Curtis’s voice, they immediately dispersed with laughter. The children who were not too afraid of Mrs. Curtis at first seemed to be even less afraid of her now.

   "Mr. Gene, are you here?" Mrs. Curtis greeted Jian Heng, then nodded to Jack and Wei, and at the same time motioned for everyone to go inside together.

  Walking side by side with Mrs. Curtis, Jian Heng asked as he walked, "How is it? Is life here okay?"

"That's good, it's really good. You've seen the valley where you lived before. The place where children can run is less than a football field, but now this place is really big and comfortable. The most important thing is But there are no enemies here, we grow and eat by ourselves, and our daily life is very peaceful and prosperous.”

  The old lady seemed very satisfied with the life here, and there was a kind of joy on her face when she spoke.

   "It can be seen that you look younger when you are in a good mood," Jian Heng boasted.

Mrs. Curtis replied with a smile: "It's really true. Some of the minor problems that I had in some seasons before have disappeared these days, and my appetite has improved a lot. When I was there, I felt the most It was just a year or two, and now I feel like I can live another ten or so years."

   "That's a good thing!" Jian Heng agreed and entered the tallest house in the village with the old lady.

As soon as he entered the house, Jian Heng saw a small figure on the table in the middle. After seeing the appearance, Jian Heng felt a bit like himself. Then he looked at the "tablet" at the back and recognized that it was written on it. His own name was suddenly confused.

Mrs. Curtis followed Jian Heng's eyes to see these and said to Jian Heng: "I don't know how to thank you, I know you don't need anything, I heard Wei said that you Chinese express gratitude. There is a longevity tablet, we It will be given to you."

   "Forget it, I feel weird, I was still alive and kicking and suddenly saw my tablet" Jian Heng said with a wry smile.

"Okay, let's take this and that, but keep the statue. It took me a long time to make it. It's a workmanship many years ago. It's a commemoration after getting this one." said Mrs. Curtis.

   This can be regarded as a compromise, so Jian Heng nodded.

The space of the hall is not very large. With the current level of construction, it is impossible to build such a large hall. Therefore, the so-called hall is about a hundred square meters and more than three meters high. There is a long table in the middle of the desk, which can seat about a dozen or twenty people. As for the stool, it is a long bench with legs after the tree trunk is cut down.

Jian Heng helped the old lady to sit down, and he sat opposite to the old lady, while Wei and Jack sat down at the other end of the long table after Jian Heng ordered them to sit down, and after chatting for a few words, they were stopped. Jian Heng hurried back to supervise the filling.

Watching the two leave, Jian Heng asked Mrs. Curtis, "Why don't you stay in Thunder Blade Village? Is it difficult for you to support yourself with a group of children, big and small? Why don't I get some for you next time?" tools?"

Mrs. Curtis waved her hand immediately: "That's enough, there are plows and cattle, plus the land here is good, you can grow whatever you plant, as long as you're not too lazy, you can feed yourself no matter whether it's grazing or planting. Life is very rich, and there are not so many worries and desires, which is very good.”

   Seeing Jian Heng wanted to ask herself again, the old lady smiled and said, "The only thing that bothers me here is that the two villages are playing tricks on our children."

  Jian Heng didn't react when he heard that, he thought that the two villages wanted labor.

   "It's these girls who are about to grow up!" Seeing the expression on Jian Heng's face, the old lady immediately knew that he had misunderstood.

  Hearing what the old lady said, Jian Heng still didn't understand.

No need to think about it, whether it is Thunder Blade or White Melon, life is quite affluent now, even coolies can eat enough, because everyone's needs are small, and the land of space is too powerful, so everyone except the hard work at the beginning It's a little bit more, and now it's a bit of a primitive socialist style.

After satisfying the stomach and dressing, everyone is thinking about how to reproduce, especially for leaders like Wei and Jack. No matter which man, monogamy does not exist here, whether it is Wei or Jack. Both have several women, so the demand for women in the two villages is extremely strong.

  The primordial power of life is the most essential means to control all materials, which is almost the consensus of the two villages from top to bottom, not to mention that there were not many women in the two villages.

As for Mrs. Curtis's side, there are hundreds of children, girls accounted for more than half of them. They have been raised in the space for several years. The poets in the village began to hook up with the girls here.

   It is not daring to rob them by force, but if he hooks up with a girl and is willing to follow him, then Jian Heng can't be harsh. In the beginning, there were still some daring minions, who were seduced out of the wild, and when they were more courageous, they brought them back to the village to live together.

Later, Wei and Jack went out to hook up in person. With the power of the two of them, they really hooked up two pretty girls. I don’t know how many houses they have gone home. I heard from the old lady that the two The girl's child is able to walk.

   "If you can't do anything, can I do it?" Jian Heng and Mrs. Curtis looked at each other and smiled wryly.

It's only natural for men and women to love this kind of thing, it's not right for you to try your best to twist it, and as for the clean boys under Curtis's hands who don't seem to have faded their lanugo hair, they are far behind in terms of work and life experience. It's a long way to help the glib old fritters, but when it comes to coaxing women, it's really several levels behind.

  So the problem that the old lady is facing now is that adult girls start to marry out voluntarily.
