Back at Cleveland Ranch again, this time it feels very different.

Although the grass and trees have withered and yellowed in winter, and although the leaves of the redwood forest have fallen away, Zhang Xiaokai has a deep sense of closeness, which has become the land he owns and his new home.

When I left at the end of August, the vegetation was in full bloom, and the Cleveland ranch in November was not so pretty.

The poor cattle and sheep raised this year have become a meal for some diners, and if they have to find some comfort, at least they are more expensive than their peers.

Across the river, you can already see the red house.

Daddy Zhang suddenly said: "I looked at the next weather forecast in the morning, if nothing else, you can see that it is snowing here, and there will be a cooling in the near future." ”

“…… It's been snowing a lot at Harvard lately, and I'd like to keep it out at all, but it's said that snow can freeze the eggs in the soil, which is good for next year's pasture. ”

"There are more insects, anyway, we can't use pesticides here, and it is precisely because of the many insects that many birds are attracted, some of them migrate to the south for the winter, and there are the most birds before harvesting wheat every year, they are too lazy to find insects, and prefer to get something for nothing. ”

"It's shameless, what's the use of asking for them. ”

Wait for the car to park.

Zhang Xiaokai got out of the car, he didn't bring much with him when he went home this time, he only carried a backpack, and even put his laptop in the bedroom.

When I saw old Ronald just now, I felt that the old man was doing quite well.

At the age of seventy, there is no need to pursue the true meaning of life too deliberately, at his age, eating well, playing well, and enjoying life without illness and disaster is already a very good day.

The vast majority of people have no money, how was it when they were young, and what was it like when they were old, such a life may not have much regret, but after all, it is a little less interesting......

Tom was lying in the doorway, looking as lazy and haughty as ever.

It's a big cat, paralyzed there and unwilling to move, glanced at Zhang Xiaokai, opened its mouth and dozed off, which can be regarded as a greeting.

The red panda, which was adopted after that, was more enthusiastic, and after running out of its nest, it stood there begging for snacks.

Animals that escaped from the zoo,Of course, the ability to survive is higher.,Accustomed to getting along with people.,It's been free-range but hasn't run away.,It seems to have gained weight recently.,It looks more cute.。

Picked it up and walked into the house, ready to take some fruit for it as a snack, and saw the white spirit bear Mocha lying in the corner of the living room and falling asleep, no need to guess to know that the guy is hibernating again, every day in addition to eating is sleeping, this situation will continue until the beginning of spring next year.

Zhang Xiaokai was very excited when he left the Harvard campus, and on the way back from the plane to the time, he also retained that excitement, but when he returned home at this moment, he gradually calmed down again.

I probably know when I started, and suddenly there were many more troubles in my life, and my life suddenly became boring and boring.

This is the inevitable change that comes with growth.

Zhang Xiaokai is more mature than children of the same age, and he has lost a lot while gaining this maturity.

Today is similar to yesterday, tomorrow will be similar to today, and I can't find a few reasons to be truly happy and happy, and I just start living like an adult.

There are surprises in dull days.

For example, the new quilt cover that has just been changed on the bed, the little pig on it makes him feel very interesting, and the new iPad given by his grandfather's wife, after sitting on his bed and taking it apart, he directly set up a password account.

I used to think that it was enough to have a mobile phone and a computer, but this thing was a bit of a chicken rib, and I only found out when I really got it...... It's really chicken.

However, the screen is larger, which means that reading books and playing games can be slightly more comfortable.

After Nurse Logan and little Patrick got married, they gave birth to a lovely son, whom Zhang Xiaokai met several times.

At this moment, I heard the crying of the child, and went downstairs to tease it, and asked her to quit her stable job at the hospital in order to take care of her father, and as compensation, she now works at the Cleveland Ranch, occasionally coming over to clean up the house and help the other employees cook.

I didn't waste the food I bought, and I thought that Ronald Sr. would finish dinner and wait until tomorrow or the day after tomorrow before leaving.

Now the old man suddenly left, saying that he was going to Las Vegas for a while, and dinner became eaten by father and son, and the extra was taken away by Logan to add food to the employees who had been eating big pot meals.

After dinner, I deliberately woke up the Mocha bear, played with it for a while, and then went out, driving alone on the road with no destination.

Herds of elk are scattered across the pastures and trudge up the hills, where there is more hay.

The alpacas also joined in the fun, dozens of them gathered together, next to the wild deer herd to find their own food to eat, more picky about food, the hay in the wild is easy to mold and rot, and the taste is far less delicious than the hay in the warehouse.

From time to time, they provoke the elk, provoke the elk, and then swarm away, and they are happy to do so.

It is rare to have the idea of buying something, Zhang Xiaokai suddenly wanted to buy a camera, and also wanted to go hunting with his father, find some unlucky hares, and barbecue at the door of his house.

I haven't driven for a long time, and I came home in a circle, and I didn't have anything to say, but I still sat next to my dad and chatted with him.

Fortunately, there are many things in the pasture and fishery, and after he wants to come to school, he will not be bored at home, friends and old colleagues are all in San Francisco, Zhang Xiaokai's worries are very reasonable.

I agreed to go hunting together tomorrow, and by the way, I used my mobile phone to buy photography equipment and barbecue grills on Amazon, watched TV for a while at night, and slept until the early hours of the next morning.

————————

In the morning, the cold wind howled, and suddenly it snowed.

Hunting has been converted to fishing, and in recent years there have been more and more freshwater fish in the river, some carp schools have grown to shade the river, and there are more fish in the small lakes.

In this kind of river, fishing becomes very boring, and soon after the bait is lowered, you can catch fish one after another, and there are many giant carp that are generally larger, more than a meter long.

Even the Chinese do not like certain species of carp very much, and it is difficult to cover all the fishy smell in the meat, and there are many small spines.

It just so happened that the fishing nets I bought arrived, so Daddy Zhang suggested that he go fishing for fish while eating breakfast.

Gather the cowboys, stand at both ends of the bridge, and walk upstream along the riverbank.

The principle is similar to that of a trawl, but it is actually a kind of trawl, and the snowflakes fall into the river and disappear.

The cowboys walked for a while and said they couldn't drag anymore, and looked behind, there were countless fish jumping and struggling in their nets.

No one wants to eat them, so they can only be processed into feed for chickens and ducks, or they can be sprinkled into the sea to feed fish after processing, and they will not be wasted.

The ban on marine fish is not available for Asian carp, the quality of the net is average, just catch the third net by the stones at the bottom of the river to scratch the stone, more than two tons of fish landed, quickly frozen hard.

There are also wild foxes who are not afraid of people come over to steal food, and take the cubs that are just born in autumn.

After a while, white ...... could be seen on the ground
