Little Life on An American Ranch
Chapter 394: Life
Chapter 394 Life
Jian Heng is really not easy to intervene, as long as the person concerned is willing to do what you want, no one can control it. Is there an old saying that if you don't stay in a female university, if you stay or stay, you will become enemies. Although Jian Heng has great power in the space, he is not willing to be such a villain.
Old Mrs. Curtis was naturally worried about the children she brought in. What is her main concern? She is afraid that the entire five or six hundred children were originally from the same ethnic group, but they will be neutralized by the two tribes in the future. She is afraid that her own culture will follow the marriage of these girls. Slowly discarded.
Although the old lady keeps saying that she is willing to take one to change a stable life, but when she holds a stable life in her hand, she will naturally ask for more.
This is human nature, the old lady has not jumped out of this point, in fact, it is difficult to jump out of this point as a human being.
Jian Heng doesn't quite understand, not because he doesn't understand, but because Jian Heng doesn't need to look at anyone's face in the space, he himself is God, the sky, and the law here.
So it's true that he respects Mrs. Curtis, but it's also true that he won't stand on the old lady's side in everything. Because the person who does this is not the dominant person, only the subordinates or opponents can figure out other people's thoughts. Who does Jian Heng need to figure out here?
"Take me to look around?" Jian Heng asked the old lady Curtis.
The old lady stood up and motioned for Jian Heng to follow her. She didn't go out and walked directly to the side door of Dongtou. After opening it, there was a large long room with a row of raised beds inside. Wooden, the craftsmanship is so-so, but the strength is strong.
"They all live here?" Jian Heng walked to the nearest small bed, stretched out his hand and twisted the blanket on the bed and said, "I'll bring you some fabrics when I come next time!"
As soon as he touched it, Jian Heng knew that the blanket came from outside the space, probably because he was afraid of damaging the blanket, and it was covered with a cover. The cover was made of many old clothes, and it looked colorless. Six colors, this thing looks pitiful on the outside, but it's pretty good here.
Because the coolies working outside now have only a piece of cloth around their waists, and if they run faster or there is a slight wind, they will disappear, and most of them, regardless of gender, are taught to dress like this, and they are completely shirtless.
If it was placed outside, it would definitely attract onlookers, but in the space, everyone may be used to seeing it, but they have no curiosity. Whether it is a woman or a man, everyone used to be honest with each other, without that After a fig leaf, it's not surprising to see more.
"This is where the boys live. They are at the time of trouble at this age. Even if there is material, it will not last for a few days. You don't have to worry about this matter. If you have to bring us every time we lack something, how can we get rid of it?" The previous life, although the current life is a bit more difficult, but it is practical and has goals, and as long as there is input, there will be output. Compared with the previous days of worrying about life, life is already better. Besides, the children in the village are following Lei Ren If more girls learn to weave, life in the village will become more prosperous immediately." Mrs. Curtis rejected Jian Heng's offer.
It can be seen that the old lady is very determined to break with her previous life, unlike Jian Heng who regards space as a refuge and a place to play.
From the boys’ dormitory, walk two or three meters to the girls’ dormitory. The girls living here are all young, about ten years old. The older girls lived in the west, and they had jobs every day, either in the farmland or in the dormitory with simple looms to weave. As for the older boys, they were responsible for cutting logs, plowing fields, or building houses.
Everyone here has their own job, and everyone lives step by step, but Jian Heng sees far more laughter on their faces than in the real world.
After seeing the stockade, the old lady took Jian Heng to the farm of the stockade again, where Jian Heng saw patches of crop fields, including corn and potatoes, the most of which was wheat, and now it was almost time for wheat harvesting At that time, the green and yellow wheat in the wheat field did not look very beautiful, but it was full of the taste of harvest.
There are a lot of fields, and there are still some little girls who are busy weeding in the field, or supplying the newly formed ears in order to maintain nutrition. The fallen leaves were collected and bundled into bundles, apparently to be fodder for cattle, but anything in the field was useful.
"How is it?" Mrs. Curtis looked a little smug.
Jian Heng nodded at her and gave her a thumbs up at the same time: "It's only been a few years, and you guys are doing really well."
Mrs. Curtis said: "It is also thanks to you, and the people in the two villages of Jack and Wei. Without them teaching us, we would have survived so quickly."
Jian Heng smiled, and turned his head to look at the setting sun that was about to set. There is no pollution in the space, so the sky in the space is very blue, and the sun in the space is also very beautiful. The ground was sprinkled with orange yellow, which reminded Jian Heng of the grass eggs in the pasture, and the yolk was this color.
Thinking of eggs, Jian Heng smacked his mouth, and couldn't help thinking of the scallion pancakes made by his mother. Thinking of the taste, Jian Heng swallowed subconsciously.
"I'm waiting to go back." Jian Heng now wished he could fly back home and ask his mother to make him two scallion oil pancakes.
Mrs. Curtis nodded: "I will come to see you often in the future. Although I am healthy now, I am not young anymore. I have no regrets in life. In Weijiao's words, when people get old, they miss me a little bit. old friend".
The old lady used Chinese in this sentence, very authentic Mandarin.
Jian Heng nodded lightly, agreed and waved his hand at the old lady, then disappeared coquettishly.
"Grandmother, is Jin a god? I heard Lei Ren's Jing say that all gods in China can fly, and they are unpredictable." Just after Jian Heng flashed away, a small head protruded from the cornfield, round With some mud sticking to her round face, she looks like a very cute little girl.
Mrs. Curtis looked in the direction of Jian Heng's enchantment, and said lightly: "Maybe, maybe he is the God of this world!"
Originally, the old lady was not a devout believer, but after seeing all the miracles of Jian Heng, the old lady was thinking about a question these days, that is, would there be such a person in the original world, and he observed from the standpoint of God The original world is just like Jian Heng's current world.
Jian Heng didn't think so much. When he flashed to the enchantment and was about to go out, he saw that the altar outside the enchantment had been washed clean pigs and sheep, and there were two baskets next to it. In it were the cleaned internal organs of two animals, and in the other basket were fruits of the time, some apples, jujubes, pomegranates, persimmons, etc. Anyway, a small basket was full.
I took a jujube, rubbed it with my hands, put it in my mouth and chewed it, it was crunchy, and the pulp was very sweet, without the green bubble taste of the dates sold outside.
Nodding in satisfaction, Jian Heng turned around and went straight out of the space.
Back in the sunshine room, I removed all the planting baskets and put them back to the original place. Jian Heng directly activated the irrigation device and put space water in the reservoir. After sprinkling on a basket, the seeds in the basket slowly began to break through the soil, and within five or six minutes, they grew into plants, blooming and blooming, and bearing fruit.
It's just Jian Heng's first time playing with this jar, and he didn't know how much, so these fruits are not ripe yet, but visually, it takes only two or three days to mature.
After finishing everything, Jian Heng thought of his mother's egg and scallion pancakes again, so he returned to the car and put the pork, mutton and fruits in the workshop into the back compartment, and then hurried home.
Although I stayed in the space for a long time, the time conversion between the space and the real world was almost an instant outside. When Jian Heng returned to the ranch, it was only a little bit past eight o'clock.
Stopped at the restaurant and asked Zhao Wei and Feng Sanzhu to keep a front leg for himself, and the sheep had a hind leg. As for the internal organs, Jian Heng would not let go of pork belly, pig large intestine, and pig liver. As for All the other things were left for the restaurant. As for the fruit, everyone must share a share. Besides, Jian Heng also has a brother-in-law and mother-in-law here, so there is too little fruit to give away.
