Watching Thomas explain one of the horses a few times, and Juan practiced a few times, Juan decided to do something about the bean grass.

After brushing the horses in the morning, Wynne and Nancy continued to take care of the cattle and sheep, while Thomas and Juan herded the beangrass into a field surrounded by a large wooden plank.

Leaving the herd, Doucao was a little uneasy, kicked the planks around and tried to get out, and then ran around the field from time to time, while Juan and old Thomas stood in the middle of the field.

"Don't be in a hurry, Ann, wait for it to be quiet, look at you in the past, be careful that it looks at you, and pays attention to you," Thomas and Juan said, gesturing.

Doucao ran for a while and seemed to feel that he couldn't run out, so he circled back and forth in the field. From time to time, there was a snort.

At this time, Ju An threw out the noose and put it around the neck of the bean grass. The bean grass immediately jumped. Trying to get rid of the noose around his neck, he followed old Thomas's prompt, and after a few laps of lasso, the bean grass stopped. Looking at Juan and Thomas.

"Now it's quiet, go over, Ann, slowly approach it, gently retract the noose, be careful not to let him divert his gaze" Old Thomas gently pushed Ju An.

Ju An took a few steps towards the bean grass and stopped. Then he found that Doucao had turned his whole body around, and his head was facing him.

After a few minutes of stalemate like this, Ju An took a few more steps forward, and now he was only about four or five steps away from Doucao, and Doucao's eyes were still focused on Ju An's body.

After a few more minutes, Ju An took a step forward, and then stretched out his right hand, at which time Doucao also took a step towards Ju An, stretched out his nose, and seemed to want to smell Ju An's smell.

Ju An honestly followed the instructions of old Thomas, stood still, and waited for Doucao to come, at this time Doucao's head suddenly shook slightly, Ju An knew that he was going to move forward, and something attracted Doucao's attention.

He moved a little distance forward, allowing Doucao's attention to focus on himself again, so that Ju'an was only about two steps away from Beancao.

At this time, Doucao finally took a step, sniffed on Ju'an's hand, and then advanced a little more, so that Ju'an's palm could touch the bridge of Doucao's nose.

Gently stroking Doucao's big horse face, Doucao enjoyed this moment very much, and took another half step forward, so that the whole head came into Ju'an's arms.

It took more than half an hour to relax the bean grass.

Next, under Thomas's guidance, the bean grass was reined with water for the first time, and then the reins were put on. After a moment of calming, he put the sweat pad on the back of the bean grass.

It all went unusually well.

Old Thomas also said, "It likes you, Ann".

After waiting for a few minutes to see that Doucao did not resist, Ju An picked up the saddle, threw the saddle on the horse's back, and then observed the bean grass, muttering in his heart, don't jump, don't jump, I don't know if Doucao can understand Ju An's heart, except for standing there and swinging his head, he didn't move.

After tightening the belly strap, Doucao did not show any resistance to the saddle.

After tightening the belly belt, he gently hit the bean grass with a lasso, and the bean grass immediately jumped up, and then jumped a few times, and then stopped, so that Ju An breathed a sigh of relief, if he kept jumping, it means that the horse is very resistant to the saddle, and it is a little troublesome, but fortunately, the performance of the bean grass is okay.

More than an hour after this had passed, Thomas and Juan came out of the fence, leaving the beangrass in the fence to allow him to get used to the saddle on his back for a few hours.

Wait until evening to remove the saddle from the back of the bean grass.

Early the next morning, I drove the beangrass to the fence with two or three horses, and then saddled the beangrass, and the whole process went smoothly.

Ju An held the saddle, put his left foot on the stirrup, tried it, and saw that the bean grass had no intention of resisting, so he turned over and got on the horse.

Then he stroked the neck of the bean grass and gave the bean grass affirmation.

With a gentle push on the saddle, the bean grass walked with a light step.

"It's such a beautiful little fellow, and it's so beautiful to look at its high leg lifts," said old Thomas, who also praised him: "It's really a royal horse, and the posture is very elegant, but it's a pity that if it's black, it's perfect."

"Four thousand dollars for a black Frisian can't be bought," Ju An, who was sitting on the back of the bean grass, said with a smile.

After running a few steps, old Thomas opened the gate of the fence, and Juan shook the reins and walked out of the fence, and then old Thomas went up too, and Jefferson followed. Protecting the safety of the house.

When he arrived at the grassland, Ju An let go of the reins and let the bean grass trot for a while, these days of practice were not in vain, he raised his chest and belly, and quickly adapted to the pace of the bean grass.

"Drive! Drive! Ju'an shook the horse's reins and clamped the horse's belly, and the beangrass increased its speed.

Soon, the horsehair of the bean grass floated up, and at this time it seemed to be whirring in the ears, and the four hooves of the bean grass flew over, hitting the grass with a rapid clang.

"Herod," beangrass hissed happily. It seems that it also enjoys such a gallop.

Looking back, he found that old Thomas was also following closely behind him, and when he saw Juan turn around, Thomas gently put his hand on the brim of his hat.

Juan also watched as Thomas stroked the brim of his hat.

The two men and two horses galloped across the pasture. There was only the refreshing sound of the wind, and the roar of old Thomas from time to time.

As the two horses galloped past the herd, Wynne yelled at Juan, "Boss! Bean grass perfect! ”。

After running for a while, Juan grabbed the reins of the horse, and by this time the bean grass was already sweating slightly, and his breathing was a little heavy. He patted the bean grass on the neck, and then stroked it gently.

"Ann, congratulations, equestrianism is progressing very fast, just now my hand was always on the lasso, it seems that you can ride alone without my company in the future" Thomas said with a smile.

"Thank you, Thomas, for giving me so much, if it weren't for what you taught, I guess my thigh skin would have worn off after riding for so long," he said solemnly, looking at Thomas.

"Thank you for the compliment," Thomas's happy wrinkles cracked.

Taking a big gulp of fresh air, I looked up and saw the white snow on the giant house mountain, and when I looked up at the blue sky without a trace of clouds, every pore of my body seemed to jump.

"It's so beautiful," Ju An exclaimed from the bottom of his heart.

"Yes, Ann, I've lived here for decades, and I still think the Montana sky is the most beautiful," said Thomas, smiling, "or how could it be called the Land of the Sky."

After admiring the view, Juan and Thomas hit their horses and walked back.

Walking to the herd, Wynne was inspecting a cow that was pregnant with a calf, and when he saw Ju'an and the two coming, he greeted him and said: "There are a few cows that are estimated to give birth next month, I think they should be given more nutrition, this time I am going to feed more oats, these cows are really good, I roughly checked that there are basically no parasites."

Ju An nodded, walked over to the cow, touched the ears of the cow nailed with the rhubarb plastic brand, and said, "Well, do as you say."

I looked up at a herd of grazing cows, each with a palm-sized sign nailed to each ear, which read Xishui River Ranch and then numbered.

"I've been busy with this for the past few days, numbering each cow, making it easier to manage and easier to control the disease," Thomas explained when he saw that Juan was interested in the sign, "and when the cattle are all here, we are branding the cattle with pasture markings."

In order to prevent cattle from running away to other pastures, the rancher usually branded his cattle with his own mark, especially the hot-tempered bulls. With branding, unnecessary disputes can be avoided.

Thomas Sr. stayed with Wynne to continue to check on the cows, while Juan rode back to the stable, took off the saddle and reins from the bean grass, and let him go to graze in the herd not far from the stable.

Watching the bean grass leisurely mingling in a few horses and munching on the grass, Ju An touched it twice. At this time, Xuehua, who saw himself on the side, also walked over and gently rubbed Ju'an with his head.

After calming the two guys, he prepared to go back to cooking.

At this time, Nancy also led her black steed over, and it is estimated that Nancy is taking care of the flock of sheep and a few mythical beasts this morning.

"Hey! Ann," Nancy smiled and greeted Ju An.

"Hey! Nancy: "Ju An also waved to Nancy.

After a period of understanding, Thomas and Wynne, Nancy Juan also got to know each other better. Nancy has been on the ranch since she was born, and she didn't go to school, and she basically helped out on the ranch after graduating from high school.

I don't even know how to surf the Internet, I don't have an e-mail address, I have a boyfriend who works as a radio DJ, and Nancy usually goes to see him when he says it is weekly, anyway, in the past two weeks, it has basically been Nancy's weekend.

Old Thomas is very optimistic about this relationship, in the opinion of the old cowboy Thomas, not working on the ranch is basically not a serious job, and Thomas said that Nancy's boyfriend is still a little handsome, so of course there are more girls around. Fortunately, Nancy seems to love him very much, and the relationship is stable at present.

Wynne was a shy young man, very diligent, always had work to do, in his spare time was buried in his own small workshop to make a saddle, the old Thomas's father passed down the craft, Thomas used to do, but in recent years fewer and fewer people buy handmade saddles, so he does not do it.

Now it is generally a brand of mechanical saddles, which are much cheaper than handmade saddles, of course, the comfort of handmade saddles is much higher, and the price is more than one-third more expensive than mechanical saddles.

When Nancy untied the reins, Juan walked back with her, usually leaving herding dogs to guard the cattle and sheep at noon. Everyone came back for dinner. Then give the tiger head and bring them something to eat.

The task of the three guys is that the tiger head looks at the sheep, the garlic head and the preserved egg are in charge of the herd, and the masses reflect that the three guys are still more reliable, hard work, Ju An feels that he has not hurt these three comrades in vain
