Two days after An Feng arrived home, Joanna, who had gone on vacation, also returned, and the first thing she did when she came back, like An Feng, was to see how her horse was doing. The two of them smelled the same thing, and they put on their boots and went into the stables, and they were not too dirty, and rolled up their sleeves and began to shovel horse manure.

Jenny took Pipsqueak and stood outside looking at them in disunderstanding, and after a while, she couldn't help but ask, "Is this really interesting?" ”

An Feng straightened his waist, thought about it with a shovel, and shrugged: "It's a hobby." ”

"Shoveling horse manure?" Jenny was skeptical.

Joanna's idea is more unique: "It's like a dog lover owns a dog, people will bathe him, clean up the feces for him, and take them out for a walk." It belongs to the emotional exchange between the two parties, it depends on you, you are responsible for it, and it will sincerely repay you. ”

"Oh, it's so profound." Jenny said.

An Feng asked her with a smile, "Do you want to run a lap later?" ”

"Me? Never mind. Jenny shook her head and pinched her leg, "The skin of my thigh is grinding and hurting. ”

Joanna said, "I can teach you a ladylike way to ride and avoid friction." ”

"Really?" Jenny walked over curiously.

Joanna took off her gloves and compared them in the air: "It's called a side saddle, and the riding method is called side riding, and you need to use a set of women's saddles, usually on the left side of the horse, with both legs on the right side of the horse's body, the left foot in the stirrup, and the right foot in the air." After a week or two of practice, you will be able to get used to this riding method. ”

"Two weeks? It's been a long time, and it sounds difficult, right? Jenny retreated.

However, An Feng was curious about this way of riding, and asked: "I have only seen this kind of riding method in books, and it is said that it is used by aristocratic women over there in Europe." ”

Joanna nodded: "Side riding was produced in the traditional European society in the past, and now it has not been passed down because of the equality of men and women." In ancient times, the ladies were wearing grand long skirts, and it was really indecent to ride across, so in order to meet the requirements of women, this kind of lady riding was produced. ”

"So you learned too?" An Feng asked.

"My father taught me this when I was a child, and he told me about it." Joanna laughed and said, "He said it was like Lady." ”

"Then he's really erudite, and I have a chance to talk to him." An Feng said.

Joanna's face suddenly darkened, "He's dead." ”

"Oh, I'm sorry." An Feng hurriedly said that he had been with Joanna for so long, and he rarely heard her talk about her family, which turned out to be the reason.

"It's okay." Joanna shook her head, "I'm used to it. ”

Jenny looked at her a few times and asked hesitantly, "So, your father was also a nobleman during his lifetime?" ”

Jenny's question, An Feng also thought of it, no wonder she always felt that she had a temperament, maybe this is what the aristocratic family has cultivated since childhood, right?

She smiled indifferently: "Does it matter?" When a person dies, he can't take anything with him, no matter how great the title or fame is. ”

The atmosphere was suddenly a little dull, and An Feng hurriedly diverted the topic: "Just let it pass, don't mention these sad things." Joanna, how about a few laps out of the road? ”

"It's good." Joanna nodded in agreement.

Saddle the horse, turn it over on the horse's back, and ride out to have fun. It is estimated that Philip and Angelina did not have much time to play during this time, and they were very excited to feel the original owner riding on their backs, and even Philip overcame the pace problem when circling the barrel. An Feng was greatly pleased.

Riding a horse and galloping, inhaling fresh air and feeling the oncoming mountain breeze, the whole body is indescribably refreshing. An Feng invited Jenny to get on the horse several times, but she refused with a smile, and he was not reluctant, equestrianism is not something that everyone likes, so she walked the dog on the side.

Maybe Jenny was bored, and she gave her an idea: "How about we have a party at night?" The topic is ...... Barbecue bar? ”

An Feng felt that the idea was good, he had been here for so long, and he had never invited the surrounding neighbors. If you want to say that the neighborhood relationship in the United States is cold, it is not that it depends on how you fit into the environment, if you have an attitude of cultural differences, you will have no friends. People with a little money have a very wide circle of friends, they like to have parties at home, invite neighbors, neighbors bring friends to pull colleagues, come and go, and the nightlife is naturally rich.

"Joanna, will you come?" An Feng asked the most familiar first.

"No problem." Joanna said, "What's the requirement? ”

"No requirements, just come over at eight o'clock in the evening." An Feng said.

After Joanna went back in the afternoon, An Feng and Jenny were busy preparing. Jenny rummaged through An Feng's refrigerator and came back frowning to write a bill of materials. An Feng is responsible for informing his friends by phone, not much, but it takes a lot of effort to invite them one by one. Good thing it's available most nights.

After a trip to the city with a pickup truck and a trip to the supermarket with Jenny, he got a glimpse of the American way of buying things: you don't need to use it, you buy it first when you see the right one, even though many things end up in the trash. But they always lack a point in thinking about things...... Reason.

After returning from shopping, he and Jenny prepared a barbecue for the evening. I bought a lot of things, lamb and beef must-haves, some vegetables, seafood lobster, etc. Jenny is very skilled in her skills, and she cut the beef into a palm-sized piece with a few strokes of the kitchen knife, An Feng admired: "Amazing!" ”

"I used to do that a lot." Jenny said with a smile.

"I thought you didn't eat barbecue, but it wasn't until you suggested it at noon that I realized I was wrong." An Feng said while washing vegetables.

"Most people eat it, but it's less frequent and health-conscious. The meat we grill is generally cooked, and when we eat these meats, we don't drink beer. ”

Listening to Jenny say this, I can see a lot of differences, at least beer is absolutely indispensable for domestic barbecue. An Feng thinks that eating barbecue and drinking beer is enjoyable, and it is worth it to die. Moreover, foreigners are very picky, they don't eat the offal, there is almost no grilled fish, and the fish to be grilled must also be without spines, and they don't eat if they have spines.

Later, there was the sound of a car outside the door, An Feng went out to see, a GMC off-road vehicle parked outside the door, looking at the license plate, the Bury family who lived closest came first. Old Cowboy Mark and his wife, Olivia, stepped down from the front row, and in the back sat Henry and Mary and their dog of the sage.

"Hey! Welcome! An Feng stepped forward and hugged them one by one.

"I didn't come early, did I?" Mark's voice is naturally loud, like his voice, a tall and cheerful man.

"On time, you're the first to arrive." An Feng said with a smile.

"Oh, looks like I'm going to have to have a few beers first." Mark put his hand on the waistband of his jeans and looked at An Feng's kitchen with a smile.

An Feng was speechless, didn't they all say that they should pay attention to healthy diet? Why did this guy just come and shout for a beer?

"Hey, Bruce!" Henry walked over, "I have completely mastered the boxing technique you taught me last time, and now I feel that I am full of strength. ”

Seeing that Henry wanted to play a set of boxing techniques, An Feng hurriedly stopped him, and it was not good for him to make trouble here: "The unique kung fu is not passed on, have you forgotten this rule?" ”

"Oh, I forgot, sorry." Henry slapped his brain. Since the broadcast gymnastics incident, An Feng had no choice but to give him something real.

I don't know what this guy is doing here, I heard that he is going to fight against Xiao Hei...... Influenced by kung fu movies, Xiao Hei is still more afraid of these - before.

Guan Erye is on top, bless Henry from being beaten too badly.

Around eight o'clock, the guests arrived one after another. Another group of neighbors, the Landau family, five people, the couple and their children, sixteen or seventeen-year-old girls Millie and Mary were classmates, and they soon chatted. A five-year-old named Harvey also plays with the other children who come later.

An Feng sighed that this American's family is big, but it's right to think about it, there must be more children, if a child is shot at school, there is still a family at home! In the case of the shell drop point theory, the shells do not land on the same pit, and in the same way, the shooting does not happen in the same school.

So it's a good idea to put your kids in shooting schools.

The most surprising thing for An Feng was that Joanna and her family came, thinking that there was only Joanna, but she didn't expect the family to arrive.
