Chapter Eighty-Five: Fighting Hares

After teaching Leaf to ride a horse by hand, Leaf sped up his riding speed on the farm. Seeing this, the aunt shouted, "Don't ride so fast." ”

Zhang Cheng immediately led the mare Yueji selected by his aunt to his aunt's side, and on the horse Zhang Cheng leaned over to stop his aunt and put it on Yueji's back, Zhang Cheng also understood his aunt's character, that is, unless the horse was lying on the ground, the aunt would never ride on it.

"Ahhh In a series of exclamations from the aunt, she was already on horseback.

Zhang Cheng said: "When it comes to the horse, every word and every action will feel that it may be an order to it, and I suggest that you don't yell on the horse." ”

The aunt was now sitting very firmly, not daring to go down at all, and asked, "How do you let the horse go slowly?" ”

Zhang Cheng: "Shake the reins gently." Say, rack. ”

"Rack." Zhang Cheng shook the reins himself, and the mare Jenny walked forward slowly with small steps.

Over there, Ye Zi rode around and walked his horse back: "I think something is missing, I just remembered it, it's a cowboy hat." You see if I wear a cowboy hat, do I have a western cowgirl style! ”

Mike: "Didn't you notice that the saddle wasn't missing?" ”

Zhang Cheng said to Mike: "Saddle pedals were invented for war, and riding a horse itself does not need so many bits and pieces, of course, the stakes on the saddle can make the cowboy better tether the ox is also useful." It is not surprising that horses may resist the saddle, and after getting used to stirrups, there is a chance that the rider's feet can be dragged by the stirrups when the horse is frightened. I've seen westerns where cowboys died because of this, and I thought it was dangerous. ”

Mike: "The unlucky ones will be held back by the stirrups." ”

"And there's an inconvenient place in the saddle." Zhang Cheng said and took the leaves on Bei Fang's back and rode on Jenny's back: "It's not conducive to two-person horse-riding." ”

Ye Zi, who was riding a horse in Zhang Cheng's arms, took the reins to control the horse, and Zhang Cheng held Ye Zi's waist in the back.

"It's really a good way to pick up girls, but I'm already married." After speaking, Mike urged his crotch to dismount: "Handsome guy, let's go." Rush, horse. ”

Ye Zi controlled the mare Jenny to catch up with the aunt, the aunt didn't see the two people at all, she was sitting on the horse and looking ahead, the standard equestrian champion did the wind, and only after hearing the voice of the leaf did she say: "I have been thinking about one more problem on the horse, that is, how to get down." ”

Yezi: "How about getting a dismount stone?" ”

Zhang Cheng: "I think it's a good idea. ”

Auntie: "I must come down before noon, otherwise you will have nothing to eat." ”

Zhang Cheng smiled and pointed out to his aunt: "You shoot the horse twice, yes, it's the neck." These are all well-bred horses that are easy to control. ”

The aunt slapped twice as she said, Yueji suddenly stopped, and then slowly bent her knees on the ground. The aunt let out a sigh of relief, turned over and dismounted: "I'll ride again in the afternoon, the first time I ride a horse is too exciting." ”

Yezi: "We rode to buy cowboy hats and came back for dinner at noon." ”

Auntie: "Do you know where to sell it?" ”

Yezi: "Don't worry, I saw it on the way here." Gas station there. ”

With that, Zhang Cheng also remembered that there was a denim store at the gas station on the way here, and there were rows of hats hanging outside.

"Ride slowly."

"I know it."

As soon as the two of them rode out of the farm, Zhang Cheng expanded the range of attack in his hand and asked, "How is the farm?" ”

"It's okay, it's fine. Ah, cousin is the best. ”

When Zhang Cheng and Ye Zi bought hats and came back, the farm was already full of chickens and sheep, and after the baby woke up and climbed out of the car window, he chased sheep and cocks on the farm as if he was in a no-man's land. The people on the farm went to prepare their own lunch, and the two sheepdogs, which were one size bigger than the baby, saw that the baby was just chasing and playing, and there was no intention of killing the chicken and slaughtering the sheep, so they lazily lay there and bask in the sun and didn't care.

The baby also tried to charge the sheepdog a few times, but the sheepdog had already seen that the baby was just a false appearance, and after adopting a strategy of not resisting, the baby was still more interested in those chickens and sheep who were easily frightened.

Seeing this, the leaf patted the horse's neck, and after the horse lay down, the leaf came down and shouted, "Baby." ”

When the baby heard the sound, he immediately ran over and stretched out melon seeds in front of the leaves to sell cuteness.

Ye Zi rubbed the baby's flesh pad and cute paws: "Be good, let's go, let's eat." ”

This sentence can be understood by the baby: "Meow~"

Lunch baby got a whole turkey, the little white tiger lying on the turkey "woo" "woo" "woo" bite - after the turkey hatched out of the male and female is about the same, the rooster left a few is enough, the rest is naturally raised after killing and eating, in the United States every year can escape the Thanksgiving level is not very many.

The nutritional value of turkey meat is not bad, but the taste is a little worse, and the price is cheap, and you can buy a whole ten-pound cooked turkey in the supermarket for a dozen dollars - the famous saying of the poor in the United States is, eat turkey until you vomit.

The turkeys on the farm are even less valuable, in addition to the cost of epidemic prevention drugs, the turkeys on the farm find some insects to make food during the day and eat the wheat bran left over after grinding wheat flour at night.

The wheat yield per mu on this farm is far from high, but because it does not use herbicides, pesticides and fertilizers, the price is not bad as the most popular green food.

In the afternoon, Zhang Cheng and Ye Zi rode a horse to take the baby and went to the farm to catch rabbits, because the number of rabbits and voles here is a bit too much because of the use of pesticides - in fact, even with pesticides, voles and rabbits will quickly develop resistance and become invulnerable.

According to Ms. Casey, several sheepdogs on the farm catch rabbits and voles almost every day, and the farm also has dozens of cats to prevent voles from harming the farmland. According to Ms. Casey, the farm started with only a few cats, but after slowly breeding to more than 40 of them, this is still the number of male cats who left the territory after losing the competition for female cats in the spring.

Raising cats on the farm is quite simple, with only a few straws in the attic of the warehouse, and the cats are all dependent on catching mice and rabbits for food. Every once in a while, Ms. Casey would be able to clean up a pile of small bones from near the attic of the warehouse.

Cats have maintained a mutually beneficial relationship with humans since the beginning of farming, and are the only self-domesticating animals around humans, and can quickly complete the wild in nature. So it's no surprise that cats have always been a little wild.

The baby chased a few rabbits in the wheat field and were easily run away by the rabbits, and soon lost interest in continuing to pursue, to know that the master of the tiger also relied on ambushes to catch rabbits and mice, and if you can catch up directly with the baby like that, there is no rabbit in the world for a long time.

After seeing the baby's incompetence, Zhang Cheng picked up some pebbles from the ground, got on the horse and continued to look for the rabbit with the leaves. Zhang Cheng hit the rabbit with a stone and smashed it on the rabbit's head, knocking the rabbit unconscious.

When the baby saw that the rabbit fell halfway, he rushed up and took the rabbit in his mouth, ran back and proudly invited the leaves - the baby had never eaten raw food, otherwise he would have started to eat turkey after entering the farm.

"Good baby, baby is awesome, make it for you at night." Ye Zi dismounted and praised the baby well, and took back the rabbit from the baby to Zhang Cheng.

Zhang Cheng grabbed the rabbit's ears and shook it: "This rabbit is really fat." Fight a few more, and let's eat rabbit meat in the evening. ”
