Little Life on An American Ranch

Chapter 536: get together

  Chapter 536 Gathering

  Jian Heng's method for Simon is actually similar to that of Mr. Yao, so when Mr. Yao is in class next time, Jian Heng deliberately asks Mr. Yao to pay more attention to him.

The weather was beautiful on the weekend. The sun outside was not too strong, and there was a cool breeze. If you don’t wear a thick coat, you will feel a little chilly if you stand in the shade outside the house for a long time. Dana is the best time of the year to work in the sun.

Jian Heng and Damai Xiaomai are busy at home, preparing to welcome the guests who are about to come. In addition to Zhao Changshan's family, Wu Yong's family, and Ma Wan's family, Mr. Yao is no longer a guest. Take a turn.

"You don't need to do so much, it's just four or five children in total, how much can you eat? The snacks you prepared will almost feed the guests." Jian Heng saw that Barley and Wheat's posture seemed to be to take off the outside porch. The long table was full, so he opened his mouth and said.

"Apart from children and adults, don't talk too much, go and see how the meat in the house is marinated, and whether it can be used on top of it at that time." Damai spoke Mandarin with a stone flower accent, and pointed at Jane. Heng gave the order.

   Jian Heng saw Damai's appearance, smiled and said: "I like children so much, so let's have a bunch of them quickly!"

  Hearing this, Damai froze for a moment, and then said: "I'm not quite ready yet, do you really want a child?".

"I just said it casually, there is nothing special or not. All right, then I will go into the house to see if the steak is marinated." Jian Heng didn't explain much. For barley and wheat, the preparation period for having a baby They are quite long, and it is easy to get entangled in the details. Jian Heng is not too worried here, because everyone is still young, and some have time to think slowly.

  Of course, the most important thing is that the lives of the three people are quite passionate now, and adding one or two children seems to affect everyone.

Back in the kitchen, Jian Heng took a look at a large steel pot on the table, the kind for steaming buns, about 30 centimeters in diameter, filled with marinated Tomahawk steaks, many people in China also Know what a tomahawk steak is like, a rib with meat.

However, the "Tomahawk" at Jian Heng's house is much larger than those sold in domestic restaurants. The meat alone is probably about a catty and a half. Although the beef has shrunk a lot, adults will be full after eating such a large steak, let alone child.

He casually flipped through the pot, and found that the ingredients were spread evenly. The steak was well prepared. Jian Heng also prepared some ingredients, such as jade sticks, small cherry tomatoes, etc. The products of Jianheng Farm are exclusively for pastures, and the output is small and cannot be sold in the market.

   While checking this, Jian Heng glanced and saw a small white dot in the sky, just this glance, Jian Heng knew that it was Wu Yong's family. Everything in the kitchen was normal, so Jian Heng went out, got on the quad bike at the door, and rode towards his simple runway.

A motorcycle is not a single car. If it is a single car, it can accommodate two people. Now Wu Yong's family has four members, so Jian Heng's motorcycle has a hanging bucket on the back, and the four small The wheels are colorful and look very childlike.

This was not done by Jian Heng, but by the two sisters, Barley and Wheat, who used their creativity to paint it in person. As for the small car body, they bought it. This thing is produced by a special manufacturer. Of course, you are right. , MADE-IN-CHINA. It's not that Barley and Wheat are boring, but that Americans pay attention to some small details in life, and like to express their emotions and show their strengths.

  It is not only Barley and Wheat who can draw small cars, but many houses around here also draw small cars in this way, which is considered a custom.

   Waiting for Jian Heng to drive his motorcycle to the side of the runway, Wu Yong's plane was already preparing to land.

Propeller planes don’t have so many requirements, and the sound is much lower than that of jet planes. The buzzing sound is a bit like a swarm of wasps. Jian Heng thought it was noisy before, but after listening to it for a long time, he can get a little fun from it. It seems to be able to hear the voice of an airplane.

The plane owned by Wu Yong's family is a bit larger than Jian Heng's, and the interior decoration is also a bit more luxurious. Of course, the price is also much higher than that of Jian Heng's. Rich, as long as the whole family leaves the cave, those who are a little further away will fly the plane.

   And Jian Heng is still a recruit, so far Da Mai and Mai have not dared to take Jian Heng's plane, the only one who wants to board and shows great urgency is Jian Heng's younger sister Ning Ning, who is still far away in China with her little nephew Xiao An.

   "The airport has been repaired and it's much better. It's just across the Banla Lake. It's beautiful!" Wu Yong stretched out his head, and immediately praised the runway to Jian Heng: "By the way, when are you going to start the second phase of construction?".

Jian Heng went up to meet him. First, he reached out to get the two children off the wing half-embraced and half-supported, and then he reached out to hold Wu Yong's wife's hand to make her get down more steadily. Heartily answered Wu Yong's question.

"At least I don't want to do it again this year. The first is that there are few planes. Now there are only two of you and me. Even if there are two or two, the hangar over there can hold it! Don't worry, the pilot only hired one Temporary, anyway, let’s take a step at a time, and do it when necessary,” Jian Heng said.

  Wu Yong jumped off the plane: "There are so many big names in your ranch, why don't you even have a plane? Impossible!"

"There are some, but they are all big guys. I have to build a serious airport to meet their use requirements. I don't have the strength now. Anyone who flies a plane will be called Calis." Pell, let's go," Jian Heng said with a smile.

In fact, there are private jets among the trainees at the ranch, and Jian Heng alone knows no less than ten people, but it would be nonsense to ask Jian Heng to build an airport for their planes, because the smallest planes of these people are jets like the bend. Business jets don't include big guys like the Boeing 747, and Jian Heng doesn't even wear trousers now, so where does the money come from to build such a serious airport.

Wu Yong thought about nodding and said: "That's right, but you have to look at it from the perspective of development. As long as you develop well here, you must have an airport. Not to mention anything else, there are sufficient reasons for the style alone. Come to think of it, it's been such a long drive from here to Kalispell... well, that's a good idea".

  Hearing Wu Yong's half-talk here, he suddenly came up with a good idea, and Jian Heng asked with a smile: "What did you think of, you money fan?"

   "I mean it's a good business to get a helicopter to pick up people back and forth from the ranch," Wu Yong said.

  As soon as Jian Heng heard this idea, he immediately said: "You can pull it down, I am only a few dozen people here, and I only fly once in seven or eight days. You are going to let the plane and the pilot suffer."

  Jian Heng himself thought about this idea, not only the students in Jian Heng Ranch also suggested that it is a bit too far from here to Kalispell, it would be great if there is a helicopter.

  Business that makes money rushes to do it, but who will do it if it doesn't make money? The dime earned by flying seven or eight times and five or six times in a month is not enough to pay the pilot's salary. Jian Heng doesn't want to do this business.

   "Do you think you are a small peasant, you have to buy a plane to fly, and you have to hire a full-time pilot?" Wu Yong despised Jian Heng.

Just as the two big men were chatting, suddenly Wu Yong's eldest daughter became a little impatient, and shouted at Jian Heng and Wu Yong: "Dad, Uncle Jian, stop chatting, hurry up and go! "

  Jian Heng laughed and said, "Look, some people can't wait any longer. Should I drive this car or you?"

  Wu Yong ran to the side of the small trailer with a trot, put his **** sideways into the truck body, and hung his legs outside the truck body when he got in.

   "You drive, I flew all the way here, I want to take a rest" Wu Yong laughed.

  Jian Heng didn't say anything else, ran over with Xiao Pao, started the motorcycle, and dragged the family to the door of the house.

The current weather is just a good time for outdoor activities, so everyone did not enter the house. The two children went straight to Pooh Instant Noodles and Denver. Wu Yong was busy with his wife and barley wheat. As for Jian Heng and Wu Yong, the two masters They moved out the barbecue stove, washed it and so on.

The two men just got out of the stove. Over there, Zhao Changshan arrived in his own car, got out of the car, said hello, and then went about their work together. The adults are quite familiar with it. As for the children, although they are not familiar with it, But it soon became warmer, playing with Pooh and the others in a decent way.

Mr. Yao brought Ma Wan's family to the ranch soon. Now that there are more children, the front of the house is more lively. They seem to be full of electricity, shouting and looking energetic. Don't want it.

   Except for the children, all the adults started to get busy.

There are many people with great power, and many people work together, so the whole lunch business went very smoothly, and soon the women became leisurely, sitting together under the porch, enjoying the breeze, basking in the sun, and drinking tea We chatted for days.

Today it's not Zhao Changshan, nor Jian Heng, but Wu Yong who is supporting the kitchen. Jian Heng's task is to help Chef Wu. Wu Yong is in charge of grilling the steak, while Jian Heng is in charge of grilling some side dishes, such as corn on the cob. , cherry tomatoes and the like. As for why cherry tomatoes are to be roasted, then Jian Heng doesn't know Chef Wu's intention, anyway, as the chef ordered, Jian Heng will follow suit.

   It was almost eleven o'clock, and all the food was ready and put on the table one by one.

   "Yo! A mixture of Chinese and Western." The old man saw that in addition to the steak, there were hot and sour potato shreds and fried green vegetables on the table, so he opened his mouth with a smile.

   "I'm afraid that the children of Ma Wan's family will not be used to it. They all serve Chinese food. They may not be able to adapt to salad when they first come here." Zhao Changshan said with a smile.

   "Jian Heng, can you tell me a few words, the master?" Mr. Yao said.

   Jian Heng said: "Say something, we are old friends, eat and drink!"

   After speaking, Jian Heng raised the cup in his hand: "Start!"
