The dark green forest slowly extends with the gloom of winter, and in the distance you can faintly see the white covering the top of the hills, but you can't tell whether it is snow or white clouds, just a layer of rich milky white, connecting the sky with the earth, quiet but not dead, and the sleeping vitality seems to be waiting to break through the earth.

In the blink of an eye, more than half of February has passed. The Chinese New Year has passed, and the Lantern Festival is on its way. After a rough pinch of his fingers, it seems that there is not much time left before the beginning of spring. The days are always so fast that they slip through your fingertips without you noticing.

Cloud Peak Ranch has been really lively for a while.

Chen Taotao and Song Jiahui became sheep herders, following the two little ones of grapefruit and grapes every day, waving whips and wandering around herding sheep. In the first two days, I got up at six o'clock in the morning, and I wanted to rush out immediately, but after the freshness passed, I suddenly became lazy, Cole taught the two little girls to ride sheep, and they became interested again, and after establishing a relationship with the sheep, they gradually became conscious, and the biological clock was adjusted, even more punctual than Jessica.

Song Kongming and Lu Huaijin ran to Justin's shooting range every three or five times, indulging in the fun of shooting, after playing three times before and after, Song Kongming's shoulders were so sore that he couldn't lift them, and he was driven by Yuan Qingzhu to herd cattle, and he re-experienced life - when Song Lingyi was a child, in fact, there were cows in the family, and the three sisters had let go of cows, but the family was a cow and a buffalo, not like this Angus cow to eat meat.

Lu Huaijin started to make cheese again, and even Song Qingyun became curious, followed and watched for two days, and then satisfied his curiosity, and then abandoned Lu Huaijin, followed Randy and Tony, and ran to the fields all day long, showing a strong interest in organic farms and vineyards. At the end of the day, you grow up on the land, live on the land, and when you retire, you still can't live without the land.

Zhang Wenyin let go of her hands and feet, followed Jessica to milk the cow, and then followed Scarlett to learn to ride a horse, and later followed Song Lingyi to take care of the garden. But you can see that they are completely enjoying it.

In addition to taking care of the garden this time, Song Lingyi also took Lu Li, Brandon, Scarlett, Tony, Lily, Liu Xiaoyan and others on a hike together. The whole trip lasted for three days and two nights, and I really experienced the fun of exploring in the primeval forest. If it weren't for the lack of time, Song Lingyi originally planned to go out for five days.

As for Yuan Qingzhu, her little life is undoubtedly the most wanton. Two days ago, she also took Lu Li as a companion, went to the small town of Lashimasso for a walk, and sat in the sunset bar in New Bronfels for two hours; then she completely got rid of the shackles, and only yesterday and Lu Huaijin and Song Kongming went to the shooting range to see and see, she didn't shoot the target, that is, to see, today she and Chen Taotao and Song Jiahui went to herd sheep, and tomorrow she called Lu Li and Fred, and drove all the way in the direction of the Grand Canyon Park, along Highway 66, to appreciate the magnificence of the desert......

In addition to Lu Li's family, friends around Yunding Ranch have come to visit, and there are uninterrupted activities every day, and those who want to participate can sign up at any time. Even if you don't participate, it's okay to be a bystander -

Edward and the young people of the construction team even held a dart competition at Cloud Top Ranch, which is the kind of dart thrown in the bar, calling friends and beckoning more than a dozen people, everyone gathered together to throw darts. Not to mention Chen Taotao and Song Jiahui, even Song Qingyun happily voted for a round.

Such days seem to do nothing, all day doing nothing, but it seems to have done countless things, life is so fulfilling, from the moment you open your eyes, there are countless surprises waiting for you. People always say that life is similar, but what life is like depends on the individual, so everyone's life has a different face.

That's the day of Cloud Peak Ranch.

Early this morning, Lu Li got up, and Chen Taotao's skilled voice could be heard outside the window, "Grapefruit, grapefruit, right, right." "These simple English are no longer a problem for the two little ones. Now even Song Qingyun can say "hello", let alone these young people.

Now that he was accustomed to the shouts of the Scouts every morning, he had gradually become a part of the Cloud Peak Ranch, and even Lu Li was used to it, and with these sounds he realized that it was the beginning of another day.

After washing, Lu Li went to the stable to help.

In recent times, thoroughbreds have been particularly irritable and have been losing their temper every day, and even the horses that have brought the ranch with them have become restless, especially the stallions, who have to be taken out for a walk. Brandon said that it was because they felt the smell of the upcoming change of seasons, so they were extra sensitive, and after this time, it was much better.

Therefore, after Lu Li got up in the morning these days, he helped walk the horse.

A stallion in a tantrum is particularly energetic and unpredictable. Without technology, accidents can happen at any time. This is completely different from chestnuts, not a walk, but a daily work, and Lu Li has to be careful, careful.

After walking around three times, a thin layer of sweat appeared on Lu Li's back, and he saw Song Qingyun and Randy not far away.

Song Qingyun put his hands behind his back, walking comfortably on the ridge, Randy was not far away, Song Qingyun was babbling, Randy was also twittering, but these two people one spoke Chinese and the other spoke English, obviously no one understood anyone, they said their own, but they were extremely harmonious, singing together, coming and going, not lonely at all.

Lu Li tugged at the reins, tried to slow down, and said hello to his grandfather, asking about their recent harvest - it won't be long before the first kale of the year will be planted.

However, the horse under his crotch neighed twice, as if protesting against Lu Li's intention to slow down, a simple movement, as if complaining that he hadn't run enough. The pace slowed down slightly, but he still ran all the way forward, Lu Li couldn't help but laugh dumbly, and only had time to raise his voice and shout, "Grandpa, Randy." Then he ran away.

Song Qingyun raised his head, glanced at Lu Li's back, his hands were still behind his back, looked at Randy with a smile, and sighed, "He's still pretty good, isn't he?"

Randy didn't understand either, he just raised his hand and waved it at Lu Li, then looked back at Song Qingyun, "Do you want to ride a horse too?"

"I used to work in the fields, but then my family had no fields, so I couldn't plant anything if I wanted to. Song Qingyun continued, "I didn't expect that Lu Li would actually start farming. ”

"At the ranch next door, the old man can ride a horse at the age of seventy or eighty, if you like, you can ask Brandon to take you. Randy sat up chattering, "If it weren't for being so busy here, I would like to ride a horse every day and relax." ”

"It's actually quite good to grow fields like this. Song Qingyun raised his head and looked at the sky, then looked down at the ground under his feet, revealing a satisfied expression.

Lu Li had already walked away, so naturally he didn't hear the conversation behind. walked through the organic farm, walked across the wooden bridge, and ran along the plain between the beech forest and the valley, spreading his feet for a while, alarming the Leilan sheep who were grazing, as well as Chen Taotao and Song Jiahui who were sitting next to the sun and basking in the sun, causing the two little girls to complain dissatisfied, "Brother Lu Li/Uncle Lu Li!"

Lu Li laughed heartily, and the sound of horses' hooves finally slowed down next to the lake, alarming the calm lake, Lu Li patted the big guy's neck and said teasingly, "Now you're finally satisfied?"

Unfortunately, the big guy didn't intend to pay attention to Lu Li at all, and without making a sound, he began to walk along the edge of the lake on his own.

Lu Li turned over and got off the horse, led the horse and walked towards the direction of the dock, Yuan Qingzhu, who was fishing quietly, did not look up, and looked at the bait in front of him intently, but it was really the demeanor of some anglers.

Tie the reins in his hand to the stake next to him, Lu Li walked to Yuan Qingzhu's side and sat down cross-legged, "How is it, is there a harvest?"

"It's only been half an hour, and there's so much speed. Yuan Qingzhu said with a chuckle.

Lu Li raised his chin and glanced into the water, "You won't learn from Jiang Taigong again, right?" Jiang Taigong fished, there was no bait, "I told you, the fish fry in the lake have grown up now, if you don't catch it, it will become a fish disaster." ”

"I know. Yuan Qingzhu nodded, his gaze still falling on the shallow ripples on the surface of the lake, "You have to remember that not everything will have a result." Many times, after working hard for a long time, you may not be able to get results, both good and bad, but if you only look at the results and forget the process, this is not right. ”

The corners of Lu Li's mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, "Grandma, young people always have to bump and bump, and only after suffering will they know the truth." ”

Yuan Qingzhu laughed, "So we just watched from the side, watched you hit your head and bleed, knew that it was wrong, and then came to help you clean up the mess." ”

That's why people say that if there is an old man in the family, there is a treasure. Lu Li replied, causing Yuan Qingzhu to raise his hand, and nodded Lu Li's nose helplessly and with relief.

Everyone has their own path to follow, and no choice is absolutely right. Lu Li's generation, there are really a lot of cousins and cousins, some of them stayed in their hometowns, took the civil service examination, and lived a peaceful and stable life; some people went to the big city to find a job, not to say that they could not settle down, but they also had different possibilities for development; and some people found a blue-collar job, doing the work of a worker, and begging for a life in an ordinary way.

In Yuan Qingzhu's opinion, this is all very good. Life has to go on. But only Lu Li, only Lu Li, a child, came out, broadened his horizons and opened up his own life. It's not just the Ranch in the Clouds, it's not just the life of the United States, it's the vision and heart of the world.

People's hearts are always biased. Yuan Qingzhu saw her dream in Lu Li, and inevitably, she always preferred Lu Li more.
