In the end, Angelina had a solution, she found a lot of sunflower seeds and forage, and then sprinkled handfuls on the snow road, attracting the livestock and poultry.
Although Chen Song and Rhine had been feeding on time a few days ago, the cold weather consumed a lot of calories, and the livestock and poultry were easily hungry.
A large herd of deer ran the most happily, and the pigs could not catch up with them on their short legs......
Chen Song breathed a sigh of relief, and then praised Angelina and said, "You are so smart." ”
Angelina shrugged and said, "You have to thank Brother Bai for this, it was Brother Bai who taught me this practice." ”
Brother Bai was strangled by Chen Song's neck and pressed to the ground, it also wanted to grab food, although it didn't eat feed, but it ate sunflower seeds, even if it was a small melon seed that was scattered, it didn't dislike it.
Chen Song will have a lot of things to do in the next few days, and he has to take someone to clean the warehouse.
There are hundreds of big pigs and small pigs, dozens of bucks and bucks, and a number of chickens, ducks and geese.
In this case, pigs have become the most worry-free one, as long as they are free-range, they will not and pee in the nest, even if they are not trained, they will go out to find a place to excrete.
Chickens, ducks and geese don't know that poultry animals have short intestines, and they often pull while eating, pull while walking, and pull while sleeping......
The road was blocked and he had to work on the pasture, so Chen Song did not go to help repair the church.
Two days later, Pastor Alex called him and asked him to bring two people over to help.
Chen Song originally wanted to refuse, but the pastor explained: the church needs to be opened as soon as possible, and during the heavy snowfall, two elderly people in the town died suddenly due to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and their families are waiting to use the church for funeral.
The dead are greater.
Bruce also rushed to help, and on the way he was a little depressed, saying, "Bunch is my old buddy, I went to see him just last month, we drank gin together and watched a football game, and he seemed to be doing well. ”
As he spoke, the corners of his eyes moistened.
At the age of the old man, every time someone around him dies, he feels sad, sad for his friends and sad for himself, because it means that death is closer to him.
Chen Song had Songhe Dan in his hand, and he reserved one for the old man, so he said: "Believe me Lao Bu, I know physiognomy, I am a master in this regard, you and Mrs. Emma still have many years to live." ”
Bruce wiped the corners of his eyes and laughed, and said, "I believe you, Mr. Chen, but you may have misunderstood what I meant, Emma and I are not afraid of death, so many great people, whether emperors or art masters, few of them live to our age, so I am not afraid of death, but I feel a little emotional." ”
Goble, who was driving, said: "People will die eventually, you and I are like this, but not today, so we just need to live one day and be happy one day, and that's enough!"
Chen Song asked, "Then Gobul, aren't you afraid of death?"
"I don't know what to say, I'm not afraid of death, I'm afraid of nothingness, I'm afraid of no longer having a little connection with the world," Goble said. ”
Chen Song said: "That's still afraid of death." ”
Goble said very seriously: "No, it's different, who knows what it will be like after death? Maybe we become ghosts and wander around the world, or go to heaven or hell, or go to another world and start another experience, if so, what is so terrible about death?"
Chen Song smiled: "Don't you think these are too mysterious? This is the world of science." ”
Goble said, "Well, as you say, this is a world of science, so death may not be so terrible. Our bodies are made up of atoms, these atoms do not appear out of thin air because we were born, they have been in the universe for tens of billions of years, they make up our bodies at a moment, they will return to the universe at a moment, in short, they will not disappear, we have not disappeared. ”
This remark was a bit philosophical, Chen Song said in surprise: "We have a slang saying in China, called dust to dust to dust, I didn't expect you to have this consciousness." ”
Goble laughed, "It's just a fantasy. ”
The sea breeze and the melting of the snow itself and the cleaning of the people had opened up the roads in the town, and after Chen Song and the others left the manor path, the road conditions were much better, and they soon drove to the church.
The church is so old that the town used to fund repairs, but in the past few years Iceland has suffered an economic crisis and the government has almost gone bankrupt, so there is no money to repair the church, so this time one of its roofs was crushed by snow.
When Chen Song arrived, the church had already been cleaned up, and now people are busy rebuilding the roof.
Pastor Alex was busy with his feet on the ground, but when he saw the three of them coming, he still took the time to receive him: "For God's sake, you forgive me, I really can't greet you, come and help, gentlemen, there are too many places in this church that need to be maintained." ”
"It's too old. Bruce sighed, "There's no older building in town, right?"
Pastor Alex's face was sad, "Yes, it's old, but we're kind to it, and I think it's going to hold on." ”
Chen Song said: "Let's give this church a comprehensive maintenance tomorrow spring, and I can fund some of the funds." ”
He is not short of money, and if he can spend it in exchange for the respect and gratitude of the townspeople, it is definitely worth it.
The priest was immediately delighted: "Great, if I had the funds, I would have repaired it a long time ago." ”
A good steward will not question the master's decision, but will only try to protect the owner's interests.
Bruce flicked his hat and said, "It's time to fix this place, I think you should join forces with the mayor to start a fundraiser in the town, Mr. Chen can take the lead in responding, I believe the big guys are happy to contribute." ”
The pastor understood what he meant, and said happily, "Of course, of course, this is going to be an event, and Vince can't take care of all the financial expenses. ”
Most of the people in the town are Christians, and there are quite a few people who have come to help, but because they need to go through the funeral urgently, they still have to hurry.
