Little Life on An American Ranch
Chapter 114: cattle thief
Chapter 114 The Cow Stealer
Don't mention dinner, Blanca continued to 'extra meal' a pork knuckle and a large piece of steak. After eating, Jian Heng asked her to go back to the dormitory to sleep. Jian Heng himself rode a horse, and then began to train Heidou.
After a week, Heidou has been able to adapt to the saddle. He will not try to throw the saddle off as soon as he puts on the saddle. Now he can run behind Jian Heng's horse for a long time with the saddle on his back. It proves that it has become more and more used to carrying a saddle.
Jian Heng doesn't know how to wash the quarter horse he is riding now, but as long as he has time, he will wash the black beans himself, but Jian Heng doesn't wash it every day, and he will wash it every two or three days. once.
I don’t know it’s because of the secret grass that I ate, but the fur color of the black beans is getting brighter and brighter now, not shiny but also a little oily.
This kind of oily does not refer to the oily hands on the body, but refers to the hair color of the whole body of the black beans. The black is deep, and this black is faintly blue under the sun. But if you touch it with your hands, there will be a kind of silk-like touch, which is particularly smooth.
Especially after washing, the black beans stand in the evening sun, they are very beautiful, their bodies are black and glowing.
Today's evening, Jian Heng brought Heidou to the quiet lake, and he took off only a pair of shorts, bare upper body and bare feet, one person and one horse stood in the water just next to the knees on the shore, Jian Heng blew lightly While whistling, he brushed the back of the black beans with a stiff brush dipped in water.
Hei Dou snorted from time to time, and then kept stirring the water with his front hooves. This guy was quite happy to play, and when he got excited, Herod would raise his throat.
One person and one horse are connecting with each other. A sound of hoofbeats reached Jian Heng's ears. He thought it was barley and wheat coming, but when he looked up, he found that Rebecca was riding a white Arabian horse, one person and one horse. has arrived in front of oneself.
Seeing this girl coming, Jian Heng naturally knew what was going on, but she didn't open her mouth and Jian Heng was not interested in bringing up the drone.
Rebecca got off the horse, took the reins in her hands, stood on the shore with her hands behind her back, and began to comment on the black beans.
"You are very beautiful in the horse, and your body structure is good. How much did you spend to buy it? Are you going to be a stallion? If you want to be a stallion, tell me..." Rebecca began to argue with Jian Heng stand up.
Jian Heng only smiled when he heard this, and then continued to brush the horse, quietly waiting for the girl to explain her purpose.
After talking for a while, Rebecca seemed to think that it was quite boring. She took out a bag from the horse's back, stretched out her hand and said to Jian Heng: "Here! Here it is for you!"
looked up and saw a gray cloth bag, Jian Heng asked: "What?"
"Your shoes!" said Rebecca.
Hearing what she said, Jian Heng came up from the lake barefoot, and seeing Jian Heng walking ashore, Heidou bit Jian Heng's pants with one mouth.
Obviously, Black Bean doesn't want to go ashore yet, it wants to play in the water for a while longer. If you just play with yourself, you can play with a horse, but no one washes yourself, which is a bit of a fly in the ointment.
Now Heidou enjoys this kind of time more and more. Originally, he could enjoy at least 20 minutes. Today, the master is going to leave after only a while. Naturally, Heidou is a little unhappy. He feels that the master's work today is a bit rough. Not only rough but also sloppy.
Being surrounded by Heidou, Jian Heng stopped immediately.
There is no other way if you don’t stop, if you leave again, your pants will be ripped off by this guy, you must know that Jian Heng has an empty crotch hanging inside.
It’s fine if there’s no one, but now that a female high school student is in front of her, she needs to be more considerate. Besides, Jian Heng is not a person who takes the dirty route, and he is not used to showing his nakedness in front of others.
Even if Rebecca doesn't mind, if it gets out, Old John will probably find himself fighting for his life. Even though Jian Heng doesn't like this bumbling old man, he is indeed quite qualified to be a father. Even if Old John doesn't look for him, the American police uncle will come to have a heart-to-heart talk.
"Play by yourself for a while, I'll go up and try on the shoes!" Jian Heng turned around and pushed Heidou's long pony face.
Heidou looked at Jian Heng eagerly, opened his mouth, saw Jian Heng landed, and followed behind Jian Heng.
Jian Heng, who landed on the shore, was not polite, and wiped his feet directly on the grass, then took the bag that Rebecca handed over, sat down on the grass, untied the tie rope at the mouth of the bag, and took I took a look at the shoes.
Black Dou was snorting, looking here and there, and after a while, he came up to Rebecca's Arabian to smell his buttocks. One hit of the **** and it's over. But Heidou is not a good person, or a good horse, so follow him.
So one horse hid, and the other chased after the important man's butt! For a while, he found a job for Heidou.
The half-height brown riding boots are quite similar to the pair Jian Heng smashed into the drone, except that there are some prints on the heel and toe of the pair, and the style and workmanship look better.
Needless to say, as for the material, it must be genuine leather. There is no place where you can find cardboard shoes in this area. If Chinese shoe profiteers want to come here, they will die. These old cowboys buy shoes for generations. Anyone can buy ranch boots from a shoemaker.
Originally, Jian Heng’s pair were machine-made shoes, that is, they were produced on the assembly line. Although they are not big brands, they are of good quality and are very popular among the nearby denim.
The pair sent by Rebecca is obviously handmade. Usually handmade things can be seen by looking at the thread. The machine made general thread is particularly balanced, but the thread on the hand is not the same. It looks balanced, but if you look carefully You will find that there are differences in the distance between them, and some shoemakers will have different online because of their different habits or the level of craftsmanship.
In general, the pair of shoes Rebecca prepared for Jian Heng is much better than the original pair of Jian Heng.
After trying it on, Jian Heng felt that the size was just right, so he said to Rebecca: "Give me such a good gift, just tell me if you have anything to do!"
"Don't play dumb, do you know that you are disgusting when you play dumb!" Rebecca looked at Jian Heng and directly uncovered the truth.
"hey-hey!"
Jian Heng happily took off his shoes, put them in a bag and placed them next to him, then looked up at Rebecca.
Rebecca sat directly opposite Jian Heng: "Nathan promises not to cross the line in the future, and this time he has also learned a lesson. He just checked the drone, and it is estimated that it will cost at least two thousand to fix it. If it reaches three thousand dollars, you will forgive him this time and let him take the drone back. I also bought the shoes for you with my own money. I have been running away for a long time, do you know that I have saved a little? It’s not easy to get pocket money…”
Jian Heng wanted to laugh when he heard it, and the little girl played an emotional card with herself.
However, Jian Heng is not going to talk to her either. If Nathan comes, Jian Heng doesn't mind humiliating him, but Rebecca Jian Heng doesn't mind. Moreover, Rebecca's attitude was pretty good. Knowing that she had smashed the shoes here, she immediately bought a pair for herself without saying a word.
Otherwise, there is only one Rebecca O'Brien who is liked by the people nearby!
"Okay, you can take that thing, I'll keep the shoes," Jian Heng said.
“Shoes are my money!” Rabe said.
Jian Heng didn't know what this girl was thinking about, but he knew that she definitely wanted to get more benefits from him, so he immediately shook his head and said, "Don't try to lie to me, the money you spent? How do I think you The benefits of getting back from Nathan will far outweigh this pair of shoes! Alright, let’s stop here!"
Rebecca didn't show any embarrassment when she was exposed by Jian Heng. Instead, she wrinkled her nose: "Stingy!"
With Jian Heng's words, the matter was settled, and Rebecca's mission was successfully completed. After standing up, Rebecca remembered another thing.
So she said to Jian Heng: "I heard that a very beautiful supermodel came to your house, and you still..." today.
Seeing Rebecca's frowning expression, even if she didn't finish her sentence, Jian Heng knew what she meant, but it was obvious that Jian Heng was not interested in discussing this issue with a high school girl, but directly responded to her and said, "You Take care of your boyfriend!"
"You mean last time?" Rebecca asked.
Seeing Jian Heng nodded, she said again: "I will fly the second student away when he arrives at school!"
"Correct!" Jian Heng gave her a thumbs up. In Jian Heng's view, a man must have a little courage, and he can't shrink back when things happen. Like Rebecca's boyfriend, apart from having a handsome face, he is also less courageous than a chicken, how can this be okay.
Shrugged at Jian Heng, Rebecca was about to get on the horse, but before getting on the horse, she seemed to think of something.
She turned her head to Jian Heng again and said, "I forgot to tell you one thing. These days, there are cattle thieves in the neighborhood. Our family has lost four cows. You should be careful!"
"Cow thief?" Jian Heng was a little surprised, because he hadn't heard the old Walsh mention it. If there was such a thing, it's impossible that the old Walsh didn't know about it.
Rebecca nodded affirmatively and said: "It's true. When our house was stolen, the surveillance footage captured it was three people who did it. Their faces were covered with square scarves, and they didn't look like the cowboys nearby...".
Hearing what Rebecca said, Jian Heng frowned involuntarily.
There are cattle thieves at any time. It is estimated that the profession of cattle thieves has existed since the time when there were pastures.
There is no shortage of people who want to get something for nothing in any country. Stealing a cow and selling it can earn at least a few hundred dollars. What a good business! Moreover, when these people steal, they don't steal at one end, they steal in small groups.
As for why the O'Brien family only lost four cows, it was because their family didn't have a few cows at all, and it was a family vacation ranch.
