Chapter 28: The Fire Is Coming!
After a few awkward conversations, the old Berkshire housekeeper helped Miss Winona make a cup of black tea, asked her to rest at will, and continued to trim the five-needle pine bonsai by herself.
Her head was hot for a while, and she came all the way from the city of London to the Elk Ranch, and the weather was so hot today, Miss Winona was annoyed that she should use her brain next time, such as checking the weather before deciding to travel.
Sitting on the sofa to rest, the air conditioner in the house was on, the cool cold wind was blowing next to her, just comfortable, holding a coffee cup in her hand, looking out the window.
You can see purple bonsai on the windowsill, a few stout pine trees in front of the house, and in the distance a hill covered with green pasture, over which a herd of horses is driven by cowboys.
I couldn't see this scene in the city of London, and after I calmed down, I began to enjoy the pleasure of traveling, and I was in the mood to observe the rooms of this beautiful little castle.
The curtains are dark red, the sofa is facing the fireplace, there is no TV, there is a white screen on the other wall, and there is a projector on the coffee table next to the sofa, so you can watch a movie directly in the living room.
The floor is covered with a gray carpet full of intricate patterns, the coffee table is oval, and the wood surface is gray-black, full of a strong sense of age. The walls are adorned with elk horns, and underneath are old pendulum clocks, which are charming overall.
Winona drank her tea, she was indeed thirsty, and the minutes and seconds passed, and it took about ten minutes before she remembered what she was doing.
It is clearly a tour, but this kind of hot weather is not suitable for visiting the elk ranch, and the idea of leaving has been generated, and the air conditioning in the car will not be as hot as outside.
Just as she got up and was about to say goodbye to the old Berkshire butler, Yu Guang happened to see a chubby cat rolling down the stairs.
It's not that Du Yu is lazy, he doesn't even want to go downstairs, he is already asleep, he didn't look at the road under his feet at all, miscalculated his leg length, and rolled down with one foot in the air.
Fat is the best "protective layer", the cat's body is not so fragile, turn over and stand up, nothing happens.
Pudding first saw a pair of long, white legs, and then looked upwards to see who it was, as if standing under the Shard and looking up, with his head tilted and his neck aching.
Because of his short stature, he is no longer looking at level or looking down, which leads to face shapes such as double chin and round face, which will expose defects in Du Yu's eyes.
Katie has a small face and a long neck, and the girl in front of her is also beautiful, at least from its point of view, her face is clearly lined, without a trace of fat, and she is wondering who this is, the smell of perfume makes it want to sneeze, and the other party has already squatted down when she is stunned.
Miss Winona likes cats, and this time she rushed over to the pudding, only to find that this thing was fatter than she imagined, and the short hair was full of meat, and she couldn't help but reach out and pinch the pudding's big round face, smiling brightly.
Now Du Yu saw who the other party was, a very famous Facebook celebrity, before she became a cat, he had seen her photos, and he had paid attention to her.
As a dignified cat, how can he tolerate human beings unscrupulously pinching the fat on his body? Even if he is a beautiful woman, he already has a heart.
Pushing Winona's hand away, she dozed off and came to the sofa to eat cat food, she hadn't eaten lunch today, and Pudding was hungry.
After accompanying Katie to the supermarket once, I realized how expensive the cat food I usually eat is, a small bag costs more than 80 pounds, canned food is not cheap, it is better than Du Yu when he ate, and the psychological burden is completely removed.
In addition, the physiological structure of cats is different from that of humans, and the nutrients they need are also different, so for the sake of their own health, it is better to eat less cooked food.
The face of the exotic shorthair cat is slightly sunken, which means that if you want to eat, you need to bury your head in the basin, Pudding squatted there with her head down, Miss Winona was cute by its appearance, and quickly took out her mobile phone to take pictures, and instantly forgot about leaving.
Du Yu was busy filling his stomach, looked sideways at her, and found that Winona was smiling so happily that she didn't know what was going on, and scratched with her paws, thinking that she had something on her body......
After washing her face, Katie also went downstairs.
When she saw Winona, her footsteps paused for a moment, and then greeted with a smile: "I know you, you reposted the video of Pudding and Ragdoll fighting a few days ago, right? I'm a fan of yours, and I've practiced bodybuilding yoga according to the method you taught, so I'm glad to meet you!"
"I've seen you too, in the video. Winona looked at Katie and continued, "It seems to have helped you, and it takes a lot of time to keep you in shape." ”
"Or you are in better shape, I have always wanted to practice a vest line like yours, and my abdominal line is not obvious......"
Du Yu had a hard time understanding the friendship of the girls.
For example, at this moment, he couldn't imagine that two girls who had never been in contact with each other in person would chat with each other like old friends in just a few seconds, talking about how to maintain their figures.
Listening and eating, and judging who has a better figure, I can't draw a conclusion, I can only say that each has its own merits.
Soon after, the conversation shifted to today's events, and Winona told Katie, "I saw the photo you sent on Facebook, and it just happened that I didn't have anything to do, so I just drove to the address you said."
It's a beautiful ranch, but I haven't seen a panda yet, but unfortunately it's been too hot lately, otherwise it will definitely attract many people to come over for a vacation, and the countryside scenery is very charming. ”
Katie nodded and said: "It's really hot, which is one of the reasons why I left the city and chose to come here for a vacation, unlike what I imagined, it was not very comfortable here, after all, it was only more than ten kilometers away." ”
There was a knock on the door, and Pudding, who was lying on the sofa, shifted his attention from the conversation between the two girls to the door.
Seeing Mr. Cowboy Bruce again, he walked in and shouted, "Is Miss Katie there?"
Oh my God, the woods are on fire!Just twenty miles away, and the wind is likely to spread very quickly near our pasture!!"
"I'm here, what's going on?!" Katie was startled, her tone full of surprise.
Mr. Brooke spoke very quickly: "I don't know, but we can see the smoke from here, maybe it's because it's been too hot lately." I'm worried about you going out, just be here, I'll go and inform the others first!"
Pudding jumped off the couch and went to the door to look into the distance, only to see a dark shadow in the distance, and guessed that it was the smoke released from the burning trees.
It's still far away, and it doesn't worry about the safety of itself and Katie and the others, and it has enough time to escape, but it is worried about this ranch, especially the zoo......
