Little Life on An American Ranch
Chapter 340: landlord
Chapter 340 Landlord
As a qualified landlord, what is the first thing you do when you come back?
Naturally, it is time to inspect your own territory. Although there are people who do this job every day, as a qualified rancher, this must be the first thing to do after leaving. This thing should not be reminded by others, it has already been engraved into the bone marrow.
After riding the black beans, Jian Heng began to circle the fence clockwise along the ranch. It took a full hour and a half to complete the circle around the field.
When I got back home, the sun had already risen as high as a tree. Although the sun was out, the whole pasture still couldn’t feel its heat. Just like what Jian Heng did just now.
As soon as Jian Heng entered the door, he saw that the whole family was already sitting around the dining table, Jian Heng felt hot when he saw it: "Finally, our whole family is gathered together!"
Because the voice was low, no one could hear it except Jian Heng.
When Damai saw Jian Heng coming in, he immediately walked out of the kitchen, and said to Jian Heng who was at the door: "Wash your hands quickly and eat, the meal is ready, and I'll wait for you when you come back."
When Ning Ning saw her brother came back, she immediately knocked on the bowl happily. If it was in the past, the little girl would definitely be scolded, because in Jian Heng's hometown, all the knockers are beggars, so it is very difficult for children to do this. Put the old school taboo. But today, Sun Xiuying might have to maintain a kind and gentle appearance in front of the two daughters-in-law, so she didn't scold her daughter, but just gave her a look.
But just this one glance, the little girl immediately shrank her neck and became calm.
"Hey, this morning is so rich." Jian Heng finished washing his hands, sat on the dining table and praised.
This is not a lie, but it is really rich. For breakfast, there are deep-fried dough sticks, thin oil cakes, soft-boiled eggs, and sesame balls. What Jian Heng didn't expect most was the spicy soup.
Sun Xiuying came out at this time and said: "Barley and wheat are a good helper. Today, there is not enough material. Waiting for tomorrow morning, I will cook more for everyone."
"It's ok, it's ok," Mai said, "Jane used to do the same thing, and there weren't so many choices."
With Jian Heng's central translation, the chat between the two sides is not too difficult.
"Then everyone sit down and start eating." Sun Xiuying sat down and picked up the chopsticks. Just as she was about to eat, she saw Barley and Wheat praying before the meal.
Not only Sun Xiuying, but even Jian Zhenhua were a little stunned. The two old people didn't know what to do for a while, so their eyes all fell on their son Jian Heng.
Jian Heng signaled everyone to wait, but the little girl is not interested in waiting for anyone, she has been crazy all morning, almost playing crazy, and the physical exertion of being with Pooh and Denver is not a bit or two. When the food on the table was fragrant, I couldn't hold it back, and immediately grabbed the pancake in front of me and ate it.
Barley and Wheat’s prayer was also fast, that is, four or five seconds. After it was over, I apologized to the two old people, and then took a bowl with everyone to eat.
After taking two bites, Sun Xiuying said to her son, "Take me to your vegetable garden later to see what vegetables are edible in it."
"Okay!" Jian Heng immediately nodded in response.
Jian Zhenhua is also very curious about the so-called greenhouse here in Jian Heng, and now he is determined to think that his hometown has contracted the rotten land with a meager effort, so he also opens his mouth and asks to see it.
There is no reason for Jian Heng not to agree, so he finished his breakfast lively, when Barley and Wheat enthusiastically showed the attitude that a good daughter-in-law should have, and after contracting the job of washing dishes, Jian Heng took his parents to the greenhouse go.
The old couple really wanted to take Ningning with them, but unfortunately the little girl has no interest in being with her parents at all, she is now focusing on Pooh and Denver, and once her stomach is full, she immediately becomes a little white-eyed wolf. I don't even want to date my old lady.
When he walked near the restaurant, Jian Zhenhua took a casual look and found a fat chicken standing on the pickle shelf in the restaurant, so he casually said: "You guys are not doing very well, why is there an old mother standing on the vegetable shelf?" Chicken, once the chicken excrement comes down, can this dish still be eaten?"
"Where is it?" Jian Heng didn't notice it all at once, but when he heard what his father said, he looked around and asked at the same time.
Following the direction of Dad's finger, Jian Heng looked at it and immediately said: "I'm going to go! That's not a chicken, it's a golden eagle!"
"Golden Eagle!" Jian Zhenhua turned his head and asked when he heard curiosity, "Are you afraid of people?"
"I used to be afraid, but now you look at its body shape, does it seem to be afraid of people?" Jian Heng really didn't expect that a golden eagle could actually become so fat after he had been walking for a little over a week.
No need to guess, it must be Zhang Jialiang, Jian Heng, who asked him to release the golden eagle, but he didn't.
This is also easy to understand. All wild animals and all their behaviors are for two things, one is survival, and the other is reproduction. The most important thing is the first one: survival.
If you go to many places in the American countryside, you can see warning signs not to feed wild animals, because once a wild animal knows that it can easily get food, it must quickly rely on the food here instead of going to the wild. Ask in nature. So feeding wild animals is not helping wild animals in some ways, but killing their instinct to survive in wild conditions.
The best example is this golden eagle standing on the shelf with its neck curled up and basking in the sun. Look at its fat, its entire feathers are almost covered with oil. Look at its belly, it is almost getting a belly. Look at its appearance again, with its neck narrowed and eyes squinted, coupled with a fat body, if there is another rocking chair, this guy can directly play the role of a bad landlord in the old society!
Even facing Jian Zhenhua standing in front of him, Jin Diao just opened his eyes, glanced at the three people and then closed them again, treating the three people as air.
"Is this a golden eagle?" Sun Xiuying was a little suspicious: "Why is it so big and fat, can it fly?"
"I used to be able to fly, but now, I really don't know anymore." Jian Heng looked at the golden eagle in front of him and said.
"It's big enough, but it doesn't look like a golden eagle. It's lazy like a zoo. It's not as powerful as the ones seen in the animal world," Jian Zhenhua said.
Jian Heng jokingly said: "Dad, what you saw on TV was the appearance of the Eight Banners disciples before entering the customs, but the one in front of you is after entering the customs, and has become a **** eagle. Alright, parents, let's Don't look at it, go and look at the vegetables, the vegetables look better than it!"
Leaving the restaurant area, Jian Heng quickly brought the old couple to the greenhouse.
"Okay, it's really warm in here."
Jian Zhenhua and Sun Xiuying let out a sigh of admiration as soon as they entered. They didn't expect that the shed was full of greenery, and they immediately felt 'comfortable' with their eyes as soon as they entered the door.
Hearing someone came in, Zhao Changshan and Feng Sanzhu immediately poked their heads out. When they saw their boss and the boss's parents coming in, they immediately raised their hands to say hello.
"It's so good that there are no melons!" Sun Xiuying reached out and touched the bitter melon on the shelf next to her, and said happily.
Zhao Changsi came over at this time, and said to Sun Xiuying: "This is just grown, you just caught up with the first one here!"
"Oh, then it will be a dish at noon today" Sun Xiuying said happily.
"Sure, I'll show you and the old couple around. Jian Heng hardly cares about the affairs of the conservatory. He's the one who handles big things." Zhao Changshan said with a smile.
Jian Zhenhua knew his son's, so he exposed Jian Heng's painting skin: "How can he have such patience at this age, let's go, I will follow you around to see what is planted, I thought it was just a small greenhouse, who knows This guy looks pretty big right now."
As Jian Zhenhua said, he waved his hand at Jian Heng, meaning: We have someone here, so go where you are cool!
Jian Heng looked at it and thought: It's just right, I haven't visited the space for a few days, so I just took this opportunity to take a look in the space.
Just thinking about this question, Zhao Changshan stopped in his tracks: "Oh, by the way, I took the old man to Chinatown two days ago, and recruited two honest guys, and the old man is playing tricks here. , go and meet them."
Jian Heng gave a hum when he heard it. In fact, it is the same whether he sees it or not. The initiative is handed over to Mr. Yao. Seeing them is just a show. Although this cutscene has to be done once.
