Chapter 13: The Little Black Horse
Ricky also followed Susie to make a salad, such a delicious vegetable salad must be guarded to eat the most, so as not to be divided by everyone as soon as it is made.
Qin Yi watched it on the side and laughed: "Young men, don't worry, I have prepared several baskets of vegetables, today everyone begged Susie to help us make it, eat enough!" But it's best to save some stomach, Ryan's barbecue is almost ready. ”
The cowboys laughed and said they couldn't get enough of it!
Burke also made a joke about Ryan on the side: "Where is Ryan's barbecue where Susie's salad is delicious!" ”
Ryan was busy roasting meat on the side, smiling and shaking his head and not caring at all: "You have eaten my roasted meat for so many years, and I have never seen you eat less!"
Everyone laughed when they heard it, and Qin Yi also watched it interestingly on the side.
After a while, Susie's salad was ready again, and everyone who drank beer rushed forward, for fear that it would be gone if it was too late. At this time, Ryan and Burke had been busy for a while and the barbecue was finally ready, and everyone was in groups of three or five, standing or sitting, eating barbecue and salad, drinking cool beer, and the atmosphere was a little warmer.
Qin Yi also went to Ryan to get a piece of barbecue, and was just about to walk away to communicate with the cowboys, Ryan beckoned to Qin Yi, "Yi, the ranch cowboys get together for the first time today, you can give a speech." As he spoke, he picked up the rag next to him and wiped his hands, and looked at Qin Yi with an expectant look.
Qin Yi was a little speechless, the speeches of the leaders on TV were all before the meal, why did he seem to be a step too late
He no longer bothered with a word of complaining, he hated that set the most, everyone was more comfortable together without so much restraint, so he put down the barbecue, walked to the middle of the cowboys with a glass of beer and nodded to Ryan, Ryan immediately went up and clapped his hands, and said to the cowboys who had calmed down with a smile: "Girls, boys, please come and say a few words to us." ”
After speaking, he took the lead in applauding, and under his leadership, everyone put down their plates and stood up to applaud.
This scene, how familiar Qin Yi looked, thinking about it, it seemed to be a bit of a feeling when a domestic leader spoke, and couldn't help but complain: Ryan wants to mix the system in China, and he must be very good at pleasing the boss
Qin Yi hurriedly smiled and waved his hand: "Guys, I'll just say two words, you can't delay us from eating barbecue, haha!" The cowboys also laughed, they all thought it was too intimate, their stomachs were hungry, and they couldn't eat the barbecue in front of them out of etiquette, and they were anxious!
"First of all, I want to thank Burke, Ricky, you guys, you worked hard for several days when the ranch was short of manpower, I said I was going to give a bonus, I just got together today, and I don't have to find another time!"
As he spoke, Qin Yi took out his checkbook and wrote 9 checks, and distributed them one by one to the 9 cowboys in the previous ranch, even Ryan, and the cowboys were very happy, and they didn't work in vain.
Burke was the first to take the check, and when he looked at it, he was unexpected, "Haha, $300, a week's salary, Yi, you're such a good person!" ”
Several cowboys also issued good guy cards, but fortunately, Americans don't know the meaning of good guy cards, otherwise Qin Yi would have to die of depression!
Qin Yi hurriedly stopped everyone's good guy card offensive, "Also, I decided to increase everyone's remuneration, $1,500 per month,"
Saying that, he looked at the smiling Ryan, "Ryan 2500 a month." ”
"Oh, Yi, thank you so much!"
"Yi, are you a messenger of God, come to give you gifts!"
"No, Yi is Santa Claus!"
Everyone thanked Qin Yi for their grabbing, making the barbecue party reach a new **.
Qin Yi didn't say more, raised his beer glass and drank with everyone, and after a while, everyone started dancing, I don't know which young man ran back to the worker's room, took the guitar and came over to accompaniment, everyone ate meat and drank wine, and had a good time. The meeting began at 7 o'clock and ended at 9 o'clock, and Lane arranged for a few men to go to the tent in the grove, where the cattle were gathered, and they had to watch it at night, lest the wild beasts of the mountains come down and steal the cattle.
Ryan and Burke helped Qin Yi pack up the barbecue grill and move it back to the warehouse, Qin Yi kept it for a cup of coffee, and then went to rest. Qin Yi, who had nothing to do, was about to take a bath and go to sleep, when the phone rang suddenly, and he picked it up and took a look, his eldest brother-in-law Yang Bin's.
"Hey, brother, what are you busy with?" The custom of Qin Yi's hometown, brother-in-law is called brother.
"At home, do you have a job? Your sister quit her job and wants to change jobs. Yang Bin's voice was a little low.
As soon as Qin Yi heard this, he knew that the eldest sister Qin Li and Yang Bin had quarreled again, there had been two before, the first time was that Qin Li felt that the child had grown up slowly, and the family had no house and no savings, and wanted to go out to work.
Yang Bin didn't let him, as if Qin Li went out to make money and embarrassed him, the two quarreled, Yang Bin couldn't resist Qin Li, so he followed Qin Li into the factory to work. The second time was even more unreasonable, Qin Li said a few words to other members of the opposite sex, Yang Bin felt uncomfortable, and the two quarreled again! It was still Qin Yi who patiently persuaded both sides of the phone, and finally couldn't see it through the phone, anyway, the two said that they were not angry anymore, so Qin Yi was relieved.
It seems that this time there was a lot of quarrel, and this all resigned and went home.
Qin Yi replied angrily: "Did you two quarrel again?" ”
"It's not that I blame your sister!" Yang Bin said.
Qin Yi was a little angry when he heard it, he didn't want to listen to his nonsense anymore, since he was a child, Qin Yi and his two sisters had a good relationship, "Okay, okay, I know what's going on!" ”
I originally wanted to go home for the New Year, but I didn't expect such a thing.
"Don't go out this year, I'll help my sister find a way next year, it's easy, and it's better than working to earn money. You and my sister go to our mother's to have a look, help decorate the house, and I'll solve the work. ”
Sister and brother for so many years, Qin Yi knows the eldest sister very well, she has a straight temperament and a bullish temper, who is she complaining about Qin Yi knows very well in her heart, but after all, it is a matter of the two of them, it is hard to say! hung up the phone, and called his mother Li Guilan again, not saying that they were quarrelling, but I knew it in my heart, and asked my mother and eldest sister on the phone to make it clear that Qin Yi could arrange the work, but it was better for my mother to say it.
After making the call, Qin Yi hugged Lai Pi to take a bath, alas, the good mood of the night was gone.
Early the next morning, no longer entangled in last night's phone call, everyone in the parents has a short family, just go home for the New Year and make arrangements.
Qin Yi got up very early, and when Ryan went back yesterday, Qin Yi said that he would learn to ride a horse with him in the morning. He came to the stable to change into rubber shoes and gloves, took a big shovel to help Ricky clean the stable, and among the remaining six horses, he chose a black one, washed and dried, and Ryan rode back in circles.
Seeing the black horse that Qin Yi chosen, he stepped forward and patted the horse's neck, and was surprised: "Yi, you can also look at the horse?" It's a good horse!"
Qin Yi doesn't know how to ride a horse, but he picked out a good horse from 6, is it a coincidence?
Rui Qier also looked at Qin Yi curiously, and felt more that it was a coincidence, people who came into contact with horses for the first time knew Soma, which was also too funny! I thought he was brushing the horse at random, but I didn't expect to choose this one to learn to ride a horse, but it doesn't seem to be the right choice!
As soon as he thought so, Qin Yi's side confirmed Ryan and Ricky's guess!
"Is this a good horse? Ryan, you know, I can't even ride a horse, but I look at it all black, and I think it's a beautiful horse! "Qin Yi is secretly happy, look, although we don't know how to be a horse, but we can't stop our luck against the sky, this casual shot will pull out a good horse.
Qin Yi began to have a little narcissistic fragment in his heart again.
"But, Yi, I have to tell you," Ryan became serious, wanting to draw Qin Yi's attention as a result, "This is a fiery horse, it was originally a pony in the wild horse herd near the foot of the Rocky Mountains, and it was lost and picked up by the cowboys when they were grazing and brought back to the pasture. Now this dark horse is just three years old, and no one has ever been able to tame it, and every cowboy who wants to tame it can't last 20 seconds! Originally, I wanted to sell it, but because it was a wild horse, the future was uncertain, and the buyer was unwilling to spend more money, so he kept the ranch. ”
After listening to Ryan, Qin Yi became more interested, this may be really a good horse, if it is tamed, it will be his own mount! Qin Yi's expectation, Lane could see it clearly, and he was somewhat depressed in his heart, and his feelings were talked about for a long time, not only did he not dispel Qin Yi's thoughts, but Qin Yi was even more interested.
"Yi, I'm serious, but I'm not joking at all!" Ryan was a little anxious, this was the first day he had taught Qin Yi to ride a horse, don't something happen!
Rui Qi'er, who was busy brushing the horse next to her, also said solemnly: "Yi, this is really a fierce horse, very dangerous!" ”
Qin Yi reacted, he couldn't even ride a horse, Ryan would definitely not let himself try to ride a strong horse, thinking that in Ryan's heart, he was no different from looking for death! Forget it, don't embarrass Ryan, Qin Yi is very considerate of his employees.
"I feel that Xiao Hei is quite close to me," Qin Yi turned his mind and had an idea: "Otherwise, I will call Xiao Hei to come to me, if Xiao Hei is obedient, then it should be fine." ”
After speaking, Qin Yi turned around and walked for more than ten steps and stopped. Xiao Hei is Qin Yi who helped the black horse get the name just now, the horse is 3 years old, or a pony, the whole body is black, well, Xiao Hei, it is very appropriate, Qin Yi is very satisfied. Ryan listened to Qin Yi's words and didn't object anymore, no one has ever been able to tame, how can he be close to anyone. Now that Qin Yi said this, it was embarrassing for himself, and Ryan breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Qin Yi had already shouted, and stretched out his hand to Xiao Hei with an expectant expression: "Xiao Hei, come here!" ”
Qin Yi has already decided, if he can't shout, he will wait for the night to touch the two fruits to seduce Xiao Hei, and Lai Pi will not leave until he eats a fruit.
But for now, you have to try your own ideas first, and then talk about it. shouted, Xiao Hei didn't react, Qin Yi was a little lost, "Xiao Hei, come here, come over and give you something good to eat!" ”
Qin Yi began to seduce, but there was nothing in his hand to speak, and Xiao Hei couldn't understand it
Still didn't react, and Ryan and Rikier were not surprised, they were originally fierce horses, how could they be close to anyone! Qin Yi decided to shout one last time, if it doesn't work, forget it, "Xiao Hei, Xiao Hei, that's right, yes, just call you again, come to me, I have delicious carrots here." Qin Yi beckoned and clapped his hands again, jumping and jumping, Xiao Hei snorted, but he couldn't come.
Qin Yi completely lost hope and walked towards Xiao Hei depressedly. Ryan and Rui Qi'er saw this result on the side, and they were immediately relieved, Qin Yi should not ask to tame the fierce horse now. But as soon as this heart was put down, it was immediately raised again.
I saw that Qin Yi had just taken two steps towards Xiao Hei, and Xiao Hei also raised his legs and walked towards Qin Yi, seeing this situation, the three of them were stunned, well, they shouted for a long time, but they all gave up and you came over again
Xiao Hei walked to Qin Yi's side, stretched out the horse's head and rubbed it on Qin Yi's chest, Qin Yi reacted, with a look of surprise! Qin Yi had an idea before, animals are closer to people who eat the fruits of space, think about Ye Fang and his parents who saw Lai Pi for the first time, Lai Pi let them hug, unless Qin Yi gave an order, there was absolutely no way for others to hug. The space fruit is full of aura, and he has space in his body, and the aura is even more than others, so Qin Yi has the idea that animals should be closer to him.
It seems that his thoughts are right, as for shouting that Xiao Hei is not moving, think about it and reflect it, Lai Pi drank the spiritual spring water to become smart, Xiao Hei is now an ordinary horse, he can't understand the words and can't understand the complex movements, he walks towards it, if he shows closeness to himself, he will also come over!
It's as simple as that, and I'm jumping and jumping
Qin Yi was happy here, and Ryan and Riqier looked a little incredulous.
