With the addition of Wang Hao, a new force, the work of branding the calf has become much easier, and after getting familiar with it a few times, he can hit the calf and put the lasso firmly on their necks, which impresses Pete and others.
"Hao, do you need to take a break? I'll go with Luna to see if the cows are missing out, and you guys keep an eye on the fire so you don't catch fire. Pete put on his hat and began to ride and run, although he was old, he had an ageless heart, and he wanted to show his skills.
"Of course, it was cool just now, and I thought it was a little incredible."
"That's right, Hao, you're a natural cowboy, and you've done every job well."
Luna laughs heartily, let out a crisp laugh, and she follows Pete after her and begins to drive to the herd. Driven by the two of them, the cows began to stir up, and the calves hidden in the herd eventually had to be revealed, and then Luna successfully lassoed them, and Pete dismounted and tied them up.
The cooperation of several people was very good, and it took more than two hours to brand all the calves. Several of them were also disgraced, and their clothes were covered in mud. Neil and Leonard were also kicked by the Maverick a few times, and their bodies were in some pain.
The herd slowly dispersed, as if the chaos had just been an illusion, and they began to roam and graze again.
"What are we doing now? Do you go back to rest or do the rest of the work? Wang Hao sat next to the burning fire, and he suddenly wanted to try BBQ. With such good weather, it should be a happy thing to come outdoors to eat barbecue at night.
Luna was still a woman, and after gently patting the dust off her body, she grabbed her hair again: "It's growing back again, and I'll cut it off myself when I get back at night." Her blonde hair barely reached her shoulders, which looked about the right amount, but she felt that something was hindering her work, and she wanted to cut it herself. Indeed, clean hair is the most suitable for a tomboy like hers.
When Pete was free, he lit his cigarette and took a puff of it, a habit he had saved over the years, and he couldn't change it if he wanted to. He suddenly coughed lightly, his whole face turned red, he bent over and looked quite uncomfortable, Wang Hao quickly got up and handed over the mineral water beside him.
Pete waved his hand, gasped, then closed his eyes fiercely and said, "I just pumped a little fast, it's okay." It's still early, so I'll take a break, everyone has been tired in the last few days. ”
Wang Hao frowned, there is still such a long time today, if he goes back, it will definitely be quite boring, he thought about it and said: "Otherwise, go to the vegetable garden to pull weeds, and pick some fresh vegetables to make dinner by the way." ”
The vegetable garden is quite large, and it will be very difficult to pull weeds by one person, but it is easy to pull the grass with several people. The vegetable garden cannot but be a manager, which is the source of green and pollution-free vegetables in the pasture, and Wang Hao and others have to eat tomatoes and the like in it every day.
"Yes, I forgot about it. When I went to pick cauliflower this morning, I noticed that weeds were starting to grow, but now I forgot about it. I'm going to fetch some organic fertilizer and fertilize the vegetables. ”
The vegetable garden here is quite rich in varieties, carrots, cauliflower, onions are the most varied, and some domestic vegetables can also be found shadows, watercress, tomatoes, cabbage. And cucumbers are only now starting to grow vines, and it will probably be a long time before the cucumber vines bloom and bear fruit.
Since the boss has said so, they have no reason to object, unless they don't eat the vegetables themselves. Luna walked to a large iron box about one and a half meters long, this box called warmfarm throws all the organic materials produced by life and production into it, covers the lid and ferments it, there is a pipe below that naturally flows water into a bucket, but it is not ordinary pure water, but becomes organic fertilizer water, the job is to throw the waste materials into it, and replace the full bucket with new ones.
These organic fertilizer water is much healthier and more effective than those in China, which is easily absorbed by plants, and there is no pollution and no eutrophication.
With so many men here, it was not Luna's turn to carry the bucket, so Neil volunteered to carry the bucket to the garden. At this time, the vegetable garden looks vibrant, and all kinds of vegetables are growing well, but some weeds have popped up on the land, which is a bit of an eyesore. Some of the weeds even covered the lettuce, so I couldn't see what was going on there.
There are grasslands nearby, so grass grows in the garden, so it is common to clean it every few days, otherwise the weeds are taller than your ankles.
Even if he didn't know the varieties of weeds, Wang Hao still bent down and began to pull the weeds, the grass grew densely, and the roots were connected to the roots in the ground, and it was very difficult to pull them out by hand, and sometimes they couldn't pull them out at all. And Pete and Luna are desperately pulling out like a machine in front, Wang Hao can't pull out the bigger grass, and the small grass is not as fast as others. In order not to be too embarrassed, I had to work hard to make a big effort, my nails were full of dirt, and I didn't pay attention to my backache.
He accidentally pulled up a lettuce plant, and when he looked at it, he realized that it was something he usually eats, so he smiled wryly, put the lettuce aside and continued. The rest of the weeds are thrown on the rocks on the edge of the land, and when the sun comes out tomorrow, all these rootless weeds will be sunburned.
"What do you think you should eat tonight?" Leonard touched his stomach and watched as the vegetables began to get into trouble. Do you pluck some carrots or make a cabbage? There are still so many potatoes in the warehouse, and he has been eating some potato sets recently, and he is a little uncomfortable when he thinks of potatoes. It's all Wang Hao's fault, he has to bring back a book on making potatoes for Luna, and now Luna will get some potato dishes out if she is fine, so that everyone can suffer together.
It's a pity that the initiator didn't notice Leonard's gaze, Wang Hao was curiously looking at the green lantern-like peppers in front of him, he hadn't found persimmon peppers in the pasture for so long, and the eggplants not far away were also good, and they couldn't be better for making eggplant cakes.
He thought for a moment and said to the people, "Let's have a barbecue tonight, I've got all the lettuce ready!" By the way, I'll get you a traditional Chinese snack eggplant cake, what do you think? ”
As soon as the words fell, Leonard was the first to applaud, he was tortured by Luna's potato series set meal, and now Wang Hao finally came to rescue them, so he naturally had to respond. "Okay, but are you good at your craft? Last time you said you got us some snacks and almost broke the oven, so it won't be the same this time, right? ”
Pete said indifferently: "Whatever you want, I haven't had an outdoor barbecue for a long time, and the weather is very good today, which is more suitable." ”
"Just give me a break, are eggplant pies the same thing as pizza?"
Wang Hao bent down and plucked the lettuce one by one, ready to take it back to the kitchen to clean up the soil, and then wrap the barbecue and eat it when the time came. After filling the basket almost enough, he picked a few chubby eggplants, which he hadn't eaten for a long time, and he really missed it.
After pulling out the weeds, Neil filled the organic fertilizer water in a watering can and sprinkled it on the roots of each vegetable, so that he did not give up on the delicate work for long, but sprinkled it directly in rows, which saved a lot of time.
"It's almost time to go back now, and I smell like it!" Neil raised his arm and sniffed, then shook his head quickly with a look of disdain for himself. His expression caused the rest of the group to laugh, and the group slowly walked towards the house in the setting sun.
Come and see the Great Juggernaut
