3. Chapter III
Each of John's cattle and sheep had their own small room, ate fresh grass and licorice, drank water from the spring in the mountains, and lived a good life.
Via's new job is to clean up the cattle and sheep after John has driven them to the pasture.
At first, John thought that she might not be willing to do this kind of work, but when he came back from driving the cattle and sheep, he saw that she was in full swing, and that the action of shoveling manure was not much stranger than Dick's.
John was more satisfied with Via, he adopted her, but he didn't want to adopt a young lady to come back to provide for her, after all, the huge ranch, only their family of three took care of it, there were enough people, and sometimes they felt tired, and Via's could help them share the labor.
"Dick, remember to go and clean the stables and bathe the horses later," John instructed his son.
"Got it."
"By the way, teach Via."
"Good Ratcha."
After John left, Via was even more unrestrained and let go of work.
She worked well with Dick, who shoveled the poop from the hay, put it in a special bag, and the nearby organic fertilizer factory bought it from every household, and gave a lot of money, which was another source of income for John's family.
Via's trouser legs were stained with a lot of stinky things, and some of them were rubbed on the hem of her clothes.
In her previous life, Wei Ya was Miss Jiao, and she didn't even do housework, let alone farm work. If it was before she got sick, at the most willful age, she would definitely complain and stop doing it.
But after five years of illness, her mentality became peaceful and tolerant, and she deeply understood an important truth - the most precious thing in this world is life, without life, there is no need to think about other things.
So, she can even pick up broken poop on the ground with her hands without changing her face.
"Why don't you wear gloves and don't think it's dirty?" Dick asked in surprise.
Both Dick and his parents knew that Via's had never done farm work before, and that Via's maternal grandmother was a "subsistence eater", living on government benefits and welfare, not rich, but more than enough to support herself.
"It's not convenient to wear gloves, so you can wash your hands later."
Dick laughed, "You can think of it." ”
"Isn't it strange that you say people, why don't we feel dirty when the poop is in the body, but when it is discharged, it is disliked by many people," Wei Ya said suddenly.
Dick couldn't answer, he thought the question was so profound, "Don't think too much, just live a simple life." ”
Via picked up another larger piece of poop and said to him with a smile, "So, it's easiest for me to do this." ”
Dick was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood the meaning of Via's words.
The girl was more open-minded than he thought.
The two of them buried themselves in their work for a while, chatting as they worked, and Dick asked Via, "Have you ever missed your parents?" ”
Via's movements paused, and she whispered, "Yes." ”
The people she is most reluctant to give up are her parents, who are the people she loves the most.
Viagra once used Dick's phone to dial the phone number in her memory, the landline at home was empty, and the mobile phone number of her parents was answered by a stranger.
She realized that this was no longer her former world, even if the date of her death was the date of Via's fainting, even if all the times and history were exactly the same.
But Zhao Lan seems to have disappeared from this world, and there are other people related to her who have also disappeared, and no one remembers her existence anymore, maybe this is one of the so-called countless parallel worlds.
She knew that people should not be too greedy, that there was no such thing as the best of both worlds, and that since she had a new life, she would have to be deprived of everything else.
Via worked on the ranch for two weeks in a row, and in addition to cleaning the poop, she also learned to brush the bristles, lay new hay, and even tried to squeeze milk once, which was so bad that the milk splashed all over her face, causing John and Dick to laugh.
However, Via's biggest gain is that she can easily recognize every cow and sheep, the animals look the same at first glance, but after getting along with each other day and night and observing carefully, you will find that their appearance, fur, patterns and even temperament are different, and it is not difficult to remember them through guò characteristics.
Each cow and sheep has a bell around their necks and a prominent pink mark on their tail to distinguish them from other pasture animals.
What were most impressed by was a sheep, which she nicknamed "Old Macho". "Old macho man" has a pair of strong horns, is the oldest sheep in the flock, it always relies on its own generation, with horns against other sheep, most of the sheep dare to be angry and dare not speak, as soon as they see it approaching, they dodge.
Even Dick told Via to stay away from the "old macho", and Dick said that he would not live long, and that in the last period of his life, he would be short-tempered.
There is also a little cow that is so fond of Via, that Viagra also nicknames him "Snowy", because his whole body is as white as the snow on the top of the Alps, without a trace of variegation and spots, which is particularly cute.
Snow White's mother, an ordinary flower cow, died shortly after giving birth to Snowy, and the other cows rejected Snow because of its distinctive fur, and when Via first saw Snow, she was alone in the corner, curled up in a ball, looking pitiful.
Via picked it up, bathed it, combed it and fed it, and from then on, "Snow" was very close to Via, and every day she went to the pasture, "Snow" always arched to her feet, next to her calf.
Seeing that Viar was getting started, John began to give her more difficult work, and at four o'clock in the afternoon she could go to the pasture with Dick and drive the cattle and sheep home.
Viagra was excited, what a career shepherd and cowherd weed.
When she came back from the ranch at noon, she deliberately changed into clothes that were convenient for travel, wearing an old gray T-shirt of Manina, and a pair of light-colored jeans underneath, the jeans were Dick's old pants in elementary school, washed white, the length was just up to her ankles, and she could wear them as cropped pants, but she was too fat, a little hip-hop and the waist was also big, she tucked the T-shirt into it, and had to tie the belt.
Via remembered Dick's expression when he first saw her in her old pants, and Dick held back a long laugh and said, "We also have the same feelings for wearing the same pants." ”
As he went out, Dick put a woven straw hat on Via's head.
Via's gaze immediately darkened, and when she looked up to see Dick's sunny handsome face, he smiled, "Let's go." ”
He walked ahead of her, and Via looked at his back and followed with a smile.
John's pastures stretch down from the hill, and from a high vantage point, the continuous meadows are divided by ropes into various irregular blocks, the light ones are pastures, the dark ones are the meadows that are being tended, and the meadows dotted with yellow dots and faintly sound the "jingle bell" bell are the meadows that are grazing.
As she walked down, she finally saw the other houses, which were scattered only a few houses, three or four stories high, with red tiles and pointed attic windows like John's house.
Someone greeted Dick from afar, "Hey, Dick, who's the little beauty next to you, is it your girlfriend?" ”
The man who spoke was an uncle, tall and thin, wearing a black baseball cap, who was standing on a grassy field with both hands holding the lever of a lawnmower.
Dick laughed, "She's Via." ”
Then Dick turned to Via, and said, "That's Uncle Robert, our closest neighbor, and his wife found you lying next to the bus stop." ”
Via nodded,
Over there, Robert had stopped what he was doing and approached to look at her, and Via smiled at him, and he smiled and asked, "Are you okay?" ”
Via, who had learned a few basic words of German, politely replied to Robert in German, "I'm fine, thank you for your concern." ”
Robert wondered how this girl was different from what his wife had described.
Robert's wife, Lis, had returned from town and was riding the same bus as Via. Via's hair was disheveled, her expression was numb and sluggish, she got into the car empty-handed, she didn't even have change for the car, she was almost driven down by the driver, Lisi saw her very pitiful, helped her pay, and took the initiative to ask her name, where she was going, she has been deaf and ignorant.
However, Robert didn't think much of it, and said to Dick with a smile, "Your house is lively now, and I haven't heard John complain about the boredom and lack of popularity on the hill lately." ”
Dick said, "yes, not a day has been a day since Via came that we have been unhappy. ”
"This shows that good people are rewarded."
