Chapter 640: Farm Life
The living room was very clean, Li Han came to the kitchen, took the coffee pot to make some coffee, and brought it over. "No juice, just cola. Li Han Coke handed Vida, a bottle for Dudu and Baby, and a bottle for Maria and Eve, who rarely came here, and there were not many things in the refrigerator.
Toudu puffed out his mouth, and didn't like to drink Coke anymore, and pulled Dinah to find milk to drink and go to see the ox cart. "Wait a minute, Daddy will come with you. Li Han grabbed the Dudu villain, and there was something to talk to Lulu. "Lulu, Vader's business is waiting for Albert to complete the formalities, and I'll help you with the enrollment matter. ”
"Thank you. ”
Lulu is very honest, not very good at speaking, his wife does not understand the language, Li Han said a few words, nothing more than work, there is no need to worry about work and the like, the farm needs people now, and there is a lot of work. Thousands of acres of wheat, corn, sorghum, and barley are planted, and all of this alone requires several people to take care of it. Grass planting, but also need manpower, forty or fifty thousand acres of grassland need to change grass seeds, less than dozens of people busy work, usually the grassland needs to be taken care of, weeds, small trees, shrubs and the like must be cleaned up from time to time, watered, these just rely on a few rest can not work.
Lulu and his wife are in charge of the flock, and today the flock has expanded a lot, thousands of sheep plus some white-tailed deer, Lulu is too busy to work, and then there are sheep far away, and the two have a companion. Li Han and Lulu talked about it, and the Lulu family settled down, and Li Han took Dudu and Baobao, who were a little anxious to see the ox cart, and a few little people to the livestock area.
The livestock area, where the cattle and horses were raised on George Farm, is not too far from the living area. "Slow down. Dinah came in a four-wheeled tractor with a large wagon with more than a dozen little lambs. It is estimated that he was born not long ago.
Hayhay, halfway through the carriage, and a cow pot beside the lamb. There was a milky smell, and Eve covered her nose and looked into the carriage. Doodoo and baby. Mary didn't notice it at all, and the three little men scrambled in, catching the lamb and playing with it. "Sit down, Aunt Dinah is driving. ”
Dinah slung the wagon to the carriage, started the tractor, and hurried down the path towards the livestock area. Li Han sat on the haystack and opened the window to breathe. This kind of old-fashioned wooden carriage, it is estimated that George was left behind when he was young, and it is somewhat old and repaired.
After a while, we arrived at the livestock area, and the sheepfold was full of lambs, white and clean, and the work was very good, and the little lambs were scattered and playing in the meadow, and now the pasture was not very suitable for the sheep. You must know that the sheep can hurt the grass more than the cows, and at this time, they may have to eat the grass roots.
"What a lot of lambs. ”
On the green slopes, clusters of white clouds, hundreds of lambs graze. Resting, playing, the little lamb is quite naughty. Jumping and chasing and playing, not afraid of the sound of tractors at all. Dinah's carriage leaned to the side and leaned down, and the tractor head took off the carriage. Hung on a trolley body, there was no carriage in the light, and the feed was made of corn, sorghum and fishmeal. "Aunt Dinah, are you going to feed the lamb?" "Yes. Dinah took down the feed bag, two large bags, and put it in the cart.
"Pandora feed you. ”
Dudu pulled Dinah and tilted her little head up. "Okay. ”
"The baby helps the aunt catch the lamb. ”
Mary and the baby were carried to the sheepfold, and more than a dozen little lambs were too young to join the herd, and they had to wait for a while. "I'll push it. Dinah smiled when she saw Li Han helping.
The sheep also have to be fed, Dinah said, drove the tractor to hang the body, went to the warehouse, pulled hay, and cooperated with the small lawn mower to cut some fresh grass yesterday. Li Han pushed the small cart, and the baby sat on the cart, holding a plastic scoop and sprinkling feed pieces.
The father and daughter didn't send it to the trough as Dinah said at all, and sprinkled it on the hillside at will, sprinkling all the way, and after sprinkling the feed, they looked back and saw a group of little lambs, all of them like white balls, their eyes were pure, and they bleated around the father and daughter. "Daddy, toot down. ”
"Okay, slow down. ”
Li Han stopped the cart and tilted it to the side, waiting for Dudu to come down. "Little lamb. Dudu climbed down, grabbed a little lamb, and laughed silly, and Li Han was amused. "Aunt Dinah is here. With a thud, he let go of the lamb and pointed to the tractor in the distance.
Li Han looked back and saw that Dinah was driving a tractor and pulling a cart of hay and fresh forage, heading towards the sheepfold. "Dudu went to help Auntie feed the sheep. Dudu ran towards the sheepfold with a cigarette, and Li Han followed, and when he arrived, Dinah was carrying fresh grass with a wooden fork.
The two little people who gave the baby and Mary the lamb were tiptoeing and pulling the hay, dragging a handful of them down and running to the sheepfold, not to mention that there were really smart sheep waiting for the two little people to feed, Eve saw that it was fun to learn that the baby and Maria smoked the fresh grass and stuffed it to feed the sheep.
"Dudu too, hey. ”
As soon as Dudu saw that he had returned it, he quickly ran over, and Li Han put the small cart aside. "Finished feeding?" Dinah paused, and Li Han took a hay bale, opened the hay and sprinkled it into the trough. "I'll help you when he's done. ”
Dinah thanked her. "Lulu told me yesterday that there are some sheep for sale here. Dinah pointed to the sheepfold next to her, some of which had been sold to the restaurant last year for a good price, and both Lulu and Dinah had received a bonus.
"Tell Albert about it, what to do, Albert knows. ”
Li Han didn't plan to care about this now, and let it go to Albert. "That's fine, Lulu plans to take the sheep to the mountains in two weeks. "It's too early, isn't it?" Li Han dragged down the bales of hay, opened the hay and sprinkled it.
A few villains pulled a lot of fresh grass, squatted by the sheepfold, and fed the sheep with all their might. "Lulu went to the mountains with Henry yesterday to see, the grass is growing quite well, but there are some weeds, and the sheep have just been weeded in the past. ”
Li Han nodded, the hillside pasture, for many years, there are many weeds, less pasture, the growth is good, and it is more troublesome. "Alright, Albert said just pass. Dinah picked up the hay with a fork in her hand, and when she had finished picking up the hay in a cart, she was done.
Li Han took a few villains who didn't have enough fun, sat on a small trailer, and on a few haystacks, the little ones still grabbed the fresh grass and sprinkled it all the way, and it really attracted a few little lambs, giggling all the way. In the mobile board house where Dina lives, she is really a cowboy and uninhibited.
Aunt Dinah was ashamed. ”
Dudu and the baby, Maria stretched out her head to look at the room, it was all messy. "I've been too busy these days to clean up. "Dinah's room is not big, but it is quite complete, the bedroom, the kitchen, and the workbench are full of cowhides, deerskins, wolf skins, etc., and the finished saddle hangs on the wall. "Yes, this saddle is really good. ”
Hughton, Doyle, and even Henry, as far away as Gordon, Hawaii, Sarah's saddles are all made by Dinah, and the saddles are not as delicate, the size is right, and the saddles are comfortable. "Here's the mat on the ox cart. ”
Dinah's mat is made of cowhide, stuffed to the brim, Li Han touched it, it's good to get acquainted, this thing has been used for decades without breakage. "Daddy, show Dudu. "Okay, carry it. Li Han put the mat on Dudu's body, and the little girl almost hit it when she swayed. Li Han took it down with a smile, puffed out his mouth, looked at his father, Li Han smiled and pinched Dudu's fleshy face. "Well, you can't hold such a mat. ”
Dudu can be moved, and Li Han and Dinah, and Eve move the mat out and put it on the small trailer. "I'll do it. The musical instruments, beer, and beef on Li Han's pickup truck were all loaded into the trailer, Li Han got on the four-wheeled tractor, and said, Dinah nodded, drove the tractor and hung the small trailer, with a few little people on the car, sitting on the haystack, and holding the little lamb in his arms.
All the way up and down, fortunately, it is not a high hillside, it doesn't take long to arrive at the cattle farm, outside the cattle farm, more than ten large tractors hang large trailers, a group of cowboys are busy driving the cattle on the car, the cowboys ride horses to drive the cattle, the whole place is a mess, the cows are screaming and the horses are neighing, Li Han shouted for a long time, and finally Henry came over. "Henry. "Han. "Henry is directing the cowboys to keep them busy. "Where are these cattle going?"
"Lake Radi Meadows, this is the second batch today. ”
A large trailer can carry more than 20 cattle in one cart, and three or four hundred heads can be transported at a time. Li Han looked at it and saw that they were all half-big cows, probably the first time they got on the trailer, they were a little unaccustomed to it, they kept barking, and the cowboys had to split up and guard the door.
"Then you get busy first, I'll go and deliver the things to the lounge. ”
Li Han couldn't help here, and there were a few little guys who were eager to try, but Li Han still hurriedly took it away, and it was very messy. Li Han grabbed a few villains to the car and put them away, started the car and left quickly, but he didn't see it.
There will be no one in the cowboy lounge, Li Han put away the beer, put the musical instruments on the table, and tinker for a while, speaking of which, Li Han and Weili have been in a few tinkering bands, and they have not been active for more than half a year, and they are looking for Weili to go to Hamilton Social University to play that day, and they have been honestly told not to participate in community activities recently.
When Li Han was busy tuning, Dinah and Eve actually played billiards, Dudu and Baby, Maria sat on a high chair at the bar, poured Coke with a wine glass, and toasted like an adult drinking, Li Han saw a villain's butt and hugged it.
"Han, do you want to play for a while?"
With a beer in her hand and a club in the other, Dinah stood at the pool table and watched Eve play, not to mention that Eve was quite presentable. "The drum kit is all set. Eve asked, standing up after a shot. "Okay. ”
Li Han shook his arm, he was quite tired, he had finally debugged it, he was quite powerful, and he was a little proud. "You help me fight, I'll play for a while. With that, Eve stuffed the club, and ran to the stage instrument.
Billiards, Li Han often played when he was a child, he didn't play much over the years, he glanced at it, was stunned for a moment, and played with flowers, Dinah turned out to be a master, throwing off the position, the position left is too good, this thing is really not playable by ordinary people.
