The ranch life is a bit monotonous, of course, this is Ju An's opinion of the three Thomas, as the only idle guy in the ranch, life is still colorful.

I get up at seven o'clock every morning, which was supposed to be six o'clock, but Ju An decided to change it to seven o'clock by himself.

The first thing I do when I wake up in the morning is to go straight to the greenhouse, get a cucumber or two tomatoes for breakfast, and pluck a carrot for each of the bean grass and snowflakes.

Thomas: They feed carrots into small pieces, and they are fed in their hands. Basically, four or five carrots for the rest of the horses are enough. Moreover, the carrots in the greenhouse are as thick as duck eggs, which are nearly twice as large as ordinary carrots. Put the carrot in the sink and swing it twice, and then carry the mud in your hand and walk to the stable.

Divide the beangrass and snowflakes with carrots, and then start cleaning the stables, cleaning the horse manure, and brushing the two guys.

The first few times, Nancy and Wynne wanted to release the two guys of Doucao first, but these two guys couldn't get out of the cubicle, and when Ju'an came, each guy shared a carrot before coming out.

Old Thomas shook his head every time he saw these two guys and said it was two foodies.

By the time the saddle was ready, it was already past eight o'clock. Then it's a trot around bean grass or snowflake, and which one to saddle is entirely up to the guy getting closer to the saddle frame. The other is a folding chair with a living house and a fishing rod.

Every day from 9 to 11 o'clock is Ju'an's fishing time, except on Wednesdays, when Ju'an goes to the shooting range of the gun shop in the city to practice shooting for a day. When I went back, I took some of the purchases that old Thomas had given me. Fun and shopping at the same time.

Generally in the afternoon, it is to help drive the cattle, saying that it is to drive the cattle, in fact, most of Ju'an is competing with the calf, by the way to practice the bunch of calves, there are only a dozen calves in the herd, and basically each calf has been abused several times, so that the calf sees the bean grass or snowflakes coming, that is resolutely no longer mixed outside the herd, and directly sneakily into the middle of the herd.

For a few afternoons, Ju'an looked at the cow and sighed, saying that these calves are smart.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for the rest of the cattle to be sent by the cattle broker Mike, this Mike is not the Mike of the auction house, there are too many foreigners who call Mike. If you're going to yell at Mike on the streets of New York, you're probably going to be watched by a small half of the people around you.

But the calves sent are only seventy or eighty, and the calves just sent are not so smart, and they like to play crazy outside the herd, of course, the ** calves who are mischievous everywhere end up very miserable, a rope is over, a big guy with four hooves, immediately stand and tighten the rope (the other end of the lasso is tied to the stake head of the western saddle)

Then the big guy immediately jumped down with two feet, put you directly on the ground, and then tied up your three hooves, when unlucky, you can be tied twice in an afternoon, if the calf can swear, it is estimated that Juan is fed dozens of times a day.

After Ju'an's set of calves and the interest of cutting calves passed, Wynne was very satisfied, in Wynne's words, that is, Ann's set of calf skills became more and more sophisticated, and we were much easier when we drove the cattle, basically running around without stupid calves, and now these guys were united in the center of the herd, and old Thomas and Nancy followed with a burst of laughter.

I don't know if the grass is high in nutrition or how to drop, the IQ of the cattle has improved a lot, especially the calves. In the future, even if the pasture herd expands to more than 10,000 heads, the calves of the herd are only mixed in the middle of the herd, it is estimated that when these dozens of calves grow up and give birth to calves, tell their calves: It is not a good thing to see those four-legged long necks, and it is terrible to see the two-legged guys on the top, if you want to run around, they will tie your feet, and they can tie you several times in an afternoon.

Of course, they were happy to drive the cows, and when friends came to the ranch for vacation, Ju An wanted to perform a set of calves, and it took a lot of effort to separate the calves from the herd, of course, these are all later words.

Pulling back the curtains in the bedroom, the sun had not yet risen over the horizon, and the sky was already bright, so I stretched my waist, took off my pajamas, and walked into the bathroom with my slippers to start the day.

Fishing this morning is not done, a few days ago I received a call from my brother Liu Chao, saying that I came over today, Ju'an's small investment plan was completed, and today Liu Chao took his sister-in-law to come over to play for a few days.

I got it done step by step, took care of the bean grass and snowflakes, and then threw them into the horses that were grazing, and watched the two guys have fun before leaving.

When I got to the house, I saw the wall clock, and it was almost half past eight. Swapping out the tall riding boots with spurs, replacing them with low-top boots, picking up a dark cowboy hat hanging from the coat rack, and going out, he picked up a straw stalk and held it in his mouth.

Driving the car, holding the steering wheel with one hand and leaning the other arm against the window, he hummed along to the radio of "Daysgoby".

On the road, let a few deer cross the road, to say that this deer is really bold, don't care about the car on the road, swaying across the road, forget it, you still drag the family, hurt Ju'an honked a few times.

The twenty-minute journey was delayed several times, and it was 9:20 when I arrived at the airport.

Listen to the car, carrying a big sign that says Liu Chao in Chinese and English. Juan pulled into the airport.

Said to be the airport, in fact, it is similar to the bus station in my hometown, far less than the domestic airport, that there are many people, and a few people at the airport here are sparse, and they can see it all at a glance.

Some foreigners also looked at Ju An curiously, with smiles on their faces.

Ju An found a place to put down the sign, it was too embarrassing.

I casually found a chair and sat down, looked at my watch, well, the plane was almost there.

After waiting for about ten minutes, a sweet female voice came from the loudspeaker: "The flight from San Francisco has arrived", and Ju An walked towards the exit.

It didn't take long to see Liu Chao carrying two small bags in each hand, a large travel bag on his back, and a woman wearing jeans, a white T-shirt, and big sunglasses on her face.

"Hey, senior brother, here" Ju An shook his hand happily.

Liu Chao also saw Ju An at this time, and there were too many things in his hand, so he had to nod at Ju An.

Walked over and took a bag from the senior brother: "Why are there so many things?"

"This is your sister-in-law, Chinese name Zhao Nan, English Angela" Liu Chao introduced: "I brought you some things in the bag, and the domestic Moutai brought two bottles, our brothers drank two cups today, and the notebook you said last time, I also brought you one, just a colleague returned to China, so he asked him to help bring one, domestic Lenovo, Chinese system."

Ju An hurriedly stretched out his hand: "Hello sister-in-law, my name is Ju An."

Zhao Nan shook his hand: "Liu Chao often mentions you, and also talks about some of your things in the university, which I think is very interesting."

"Interesting?" Ju An looked at Liu Chao strangely.

"Your sister-in-law grew up eating foreign ink, which is different from our education, even our major in computer science and studying Marxist philosophy to calculate credits, I can't think clearly, everything feels fresh" Liu Chao shrugged his shoulders: "Fortunately, Chinese has not fallen behind, and now many Chinese cannot even speak Chinese clearly."

This Ju An knows that many Chinese immigrants do not live in Chinatown now, and many of the Chinese immigrants after the reform and opening up are technical talents like Liu Chao, taking the senior brother as an example, he lives in a community on the outskirts of San Francisco, and is a senior white-collar worker, with an annual income of about 300,000 US dollars, far higher than the middle-class standard of 50,000 annual income in the United States.

In this regard, the new generation of Chinese Americans has begun to gradually integrate into American society.

Carrying a bag, with Liu Chao, he took out the sign he brought from the bag and walked out of the airport.

"I said you kid, carrying a big sign, why don't you put it up, or I would have seen it earlier," Liu Chao said jokingly.

"Damn, don't say it, as soon as I entered the airport with such a sign, I felt that those foreigners looked at me like a fool" Ju An drove the car depressedly.

"This rotten little airport, there are only a few flights a day, of course you look like a fool with such a big brand, I said, haven't you been to this airport" Liu Chao said with a big smile.

"At that time, I came to see the ranch, and I didn't pay much attention to it, and besides, wouldn't it make you and your sister-in-law think that I was grander, and the first time I saw my sister-in-law, I gave a good impression," Ju An said depressedly.

"This kind of small airport in the west is basically a small plane, and there are not flights from San Francisco to here every day, generally people don't know each other, just take a piece of paper and write one, no one makes such a big brand" Zhao Nan also laughed.

Just talking and walking, gradually Ju An and Zhao Nan became familiar with each other, and everyone talked about more.

"Look, the snow-capped mountains in the distance are so beautiful," Zhao Nan pointed to the giant house mountain outside the car and shouted.

Liu Chao looked at it and said: "Don't worry, we will stay here for a few days, some will see" and then turned to Ju An and said: "By the way, there are all the ingredients for cooking, your sister-in-law speaks Chinese in general, Chinese food is authentic, and let your sister-in-law show you both hands when you get home."

patted the steering wheel: "All the ingredients, even if I cook alone, it's not easy to cook, I usually deal with it blindly, now it's okay, let's go catch a few fish in the afternoon and burn it at night."

Hearing that there are fish to catch, Liu Chao became excited: "I haven't fished for a long time, you still have a fish pond here, yes, the entertainment facilities are quite complete."

"There is a big pond in the middle of the ranch, I have seen it before, the fish are not small, I go fishing every morning this time, and I usually release it" said with a smile after glancing at Liu Chao.

"It's so beautiful here," Zhao Nan said as he leaned on the window.

The car has already gotten off the small road, but it is a little narrower, which is a double road. On both sides of the road are wooden fences, and inside the fences are their respective pastures.

From a long distance you will find a house, and the entire horizon is verdant, like a green blanket, sometimes inlaid with herds of cattle and sheep, leisurely gnawing on the grass. The meadow in the distance and the clear blue sky seem to be intertwined, so harmonious, and so vivid, here you look at it, there are no tall buildings that can block your view.

In the distance, the dark green forest is dotted with red fir trees
