Hahahaha!

A crisp laugh came from Zhang Chi's ears.

At this moment, Zhang Chi was sitting next to Merika, and the two were sitting side by side on the outdoor sofa, smiling at Xiao Xiao running on the lawn at the door.

The kid had forgotten about the North now, and Ink was behind him, along with two other new friends, Calf Rifle and Monkey Edamame.

The calf Laifu saw that Zhang Chi was back and came over, as an outlier among the cows, it likes to be with people, more than it likes to stay in the herd.

Amber cattle are different from domestic cattle, because Amber cattle have the genes of North American bison, so its hair is very thick and curly.

The curly hair on the adult cow is thick, and at this time the hair is very good, but the hair on the calf is very soft and fine, and it is long.

In terms of appearance, Amber Cow's long black curls, with a pink nose, big eyes, and long white eyelashes about six or seven centimeters long, say that it is better than the Highland calf, and no one will have an opinion.

As for edamame, this guy is second only to its owner Zhang Chi in idleness, he used to only play around the house, but now he has learned to stumble, especially in the past few days when Zhang Chi is not at home, Edamame's small days are like flying, and almost no one cares about it in the entire ranch.

Ink it is scared to death, but ink is timid, and almost always stays at home.

It didn't dare to provoke it, so it just hid farther away.

But other living creatures in the pasture, edamame is not afraid, skin monkey skin monkey, this word is not false at all, this thing is at home dragging the tail of the ox, grabbing the ears of the sheep, anyway, nothing is annoying, it doesn't do anything.

Now that I've met a human monkey, if edamame can speak, Sun Xiao may be able to worship edamame.

A mountain lion, a human phantom cub, a sub-adult white-browed monkey, and a calf seemed to become friends the moment they met, and soon became acquainted, so that the lawn at the door became a playground for them to play.

Zhang Juan had already escaped from the pleasure of the mountain lion, after all, she was an adult, and after a while, she felt that she was out of interest and ran to watch the elders play mahjong.

Although she is eager to try, but who among the elders accommodates her, she can just cross it at home with her husband and put it in front of Zhang Youpeng and others, not to mention a pot, half a pot.

Even if you are a second-tier person, you have to keep your mouth shut, otherwise you will off the elders and be cut for sure.

Zhang Chi didn't come forward, because he really didn't have any talent in playing mahjong, and he fantasized about betting on gods and the like when he was very young, and then he never thought about living with this thing.

In fact, Merica's skills in playing mahjong are better than Zhang Chi's, but Merica is not very interested in gambling, because she knows that as long as you are on the table, you will lose, because before you go to the table, the casino has already booked to charge a table fee, which is actually similar to you playing the lottery.

The two of them are not good at this one, so the two of them sat on the sofa, while sipping tea, while watching the little nephew play, the child's laughter suddenly made the two of them feel that the ranch suddenly had more vitality, more happiness, and even the sunset on the top of the mountain in the west was about to droop more brilliance.

Now the happiest is Sun Xiao, this little baby, when did he have such treatment when he has been living in the county, not to mention the county, even if it is now in the countryside, there are few families who raise cattle and horses, in the past, cattle and horses were raised for farming, and now they are all tractors, and even more at home There is no tractor anymore.

Suddenly, so many animals appeared, Xiao Xiao probably felt that he had already passed the New Year in advance at this moment, and felt that his uncle's house was more fun than any amusement park.

Xiao Xiao's laughter now is a string, Zhang Chi used to listen to the silver bell-like laughter written in the book, thinking it was an exaggeration, but now when he hears the little nephew's laughter with a slight milk sound, then he knows that the child laughs happily, it is really like a small silver bell ringing in your ears, crisp and pleasant, and the mood of the troublemakers is better.

"If only our children could laugh like this every day before" Zhang Chi looked at his little nephew, and when he withdrew his gaze, he fell on Merika's body, and at the same time stretched out his hand and rubbed it on his daughter-in-law's stomach.

Merica laughed, "Then you'll have to wait a few years."

"I'm not afraid to wait" Zhang Chi felt like he had instigated a mouthful of honey at the moment, so beautiful that it was about to burst into bubbles.

"This kid has so much energy."

Zhang Chi paused, looked at the little guy who was still running, and said with a sigh.

My sister's voice came at this moment: "We have arrived, you look at my brother's house, I told you that it doesn't look big on the video, but when you get here, you will find that it is really big, look at this cow, I will tell you more than a thousand cows, look at how strong the American cattle are......."

Zhang Chi turned his head to take a look, and found that he didn't know when Zhang Juan was holding the mobile phone in his hand and began to shoot around.

Without asking, the two of them knew that this was a video for Sun Yanping at home.

"They're over here!" Zhang Juan turned the camera around.

Zhang Chi and Merika waved at their brother-in-law's brain on the phone, and at the same time saw that their brother-in-law also waved at themselves.

The brother-in-law's face flickered in front of him.

"When are you coming? Why hasn't there been any movement yet? Zhang Juan said.

Sun Yanping said: "Who knows xx, and I don't know how to drop, saying that there is something else, I don't know what is going on, it's really annoying."

Sun Yanping's departure was postponed again, which made him very annoyed.

This time, I don't know what happened, and I can't leave.

But he didn't have much to do except be annoyed, his documents and everything were in the unit, and there was no door if he wanted to go by himself, so no matter how dissatisfied he was, he had to wait honestly.

Merika looked at the watch on her wrist at this time, and pressed her arm against Zhang Chi: "I'm ready to cook!" ”

"Oh, I almost forgot, it's almost time, let's get started!"

After Zhang Chi finished speaking, he patted the armrest and stood up from the sofa.

What to eat for your first meal at the ranch?

Is there any other option than barbecue? That's definitely not the case, the local dishes in Amber Town are barbecue, roast mutton and roast beef, and it is also the kind of arrogance beyond many people's imagination, not to mention let the Chinese people come to see, even many Americans, especially those living in eastern cities, are surprised.

The meat has been marinated, this work was completed by Zhang Youliang, thirty catties of selected beef were washed and smeared with marinade, and then tied up, boxy rectangles, about five or six centimeters thick, tied a bit like the backpacks played by the soldiers in the old movies.

When Zhang Chi took the meat out of the house, Zhang Juan was already dumbfounded.

"Just cut it in half, it's too much to eat" Zhang Juan subconsciously politely said to her younger brother, this is just subconscious, not that she is polite when she arrives at her brother's house, and this meat looks too scary.

Such a big piece of beef, to be honest, Zhang Juan hasn't seen it in a stall selling meat for many years.

Syllable!

Zhang Chi directly threw the barbecue blank onto the operating table next to the oven.

Now that the place is bigger, the oven doesn't need to be pushed into the storeroom, just placed in the corner of the terrace. In addition to the oven, there is also an operating table next to it, which is made of wood, very rough, the barked trunk is 15 centimeters thick, about 60 centimeters wide, one meter four or five long solid wood as the countertop, and the four legs are also a thick tree pole with a bowl mouth, and the scars on it are clear.

"No matter what, I'll eat it tonight, and eating it is a sense of satisfaction!" Zhang Chi grinned at his sister.

Zhang Juan listened and took a breath: "You can't eat it if you double it again, right?" This...... This...... It's a little too much."

"I'll see, I'll see!"

Sun Yanping in the video is a little anxious, why? He couldn't see anything, but he could only hear his daughter-in-law say that there was too much meat, so he stretched out his head and scratched his lungs to see how much meat there was.

During the Spring Festival, they saw something given by their younger brother, and the neighbors around them said that they were not envious of it, unless it was a gift, if it wasn't for the normal family, who had nothing to do to buy 100 catties of beef and mutton~!

Zhang Juan listened and twisted the lens of the mobile phone and aimed the camera at the meat on the operating table.

"Is this beef? It's like an explosives bag from an old movie! Sun Yanping was also stunned, no matter how much he wanted to break his head, he couldn't think of anything else like this.

"How long does this thing take to cook?" Sun Yanping said again.

"It's okay, now it can be baked at eight o'clock in the evening," Zhang Chi calculated a little.

As for whether they are hungry or not, a group of old people sitting at the table playing mahjong must be able to last until eight o'clock, and Zhang Chi's family usually eats at about this point, so there should be no problem with eating at eight o'clock.

"Is such a big piece of meat delicious?" Sun Yanping was worried about this again.

Zhang Juan said: "You can't eat it again, what are you doing with this?" ”

"I'm not worried about you!" Sun Yanping said with a smile.

Zhang Juan said: "My own brother, can you still give me something to eat?" ”

"Look at you" Sun Yanping was a little embarrassed, but he really didn't have the courage to get angry.

Zhang Chi was secretly happy, preparing to make a fire while having fun, the charcoal for the barbecue was prepared by the uncle, and he burned the best fruit charcoal.

Don't say that Americans are stupid, the highest price of carbon here is also fruit wood charcoal, and the charcoal grilled meat with this thing has a fruity aroma, which is much better than ordinary carbon.

And the nearby cowboy also distinguishes the difference between machine-made carbon and handmade carbon, if it is to entertain guests, very important guests, there is this craft will burn some fruit charcoal.

It's just that people are lazy now, and it is troublesome to burn carbon by themselves, and there is no need to pay so much attention to the mechanism of carbon, so the raw materials for burning fruit wood charcoal are not expensive.

"Do you want me to bake it?"

Zhang Youliang came over at this time, thinking about taking a hand.

Zhang Chi said: "No, uncle, I'll just bake it here."

"Pay attention to the heat, change the face after two hours, and then use the thermometer to test the temperature inside...... Forget it, you go and bake something else in the small oven, I'll do it myself."

Zhang Youliang was a little broken today, he was so happy, he naturally wanted to let his uncle and aunt eat the best barbecue, to be honest, just marinating this meat, Zhang Youliang spent a whole morning, and got up from six o'clock to get busy.

If he let his nephew roast the meat, wouldn't his hard work be in vain, so he simply drove his nephew away and did it himself to really rest assured.

was squeezed aside by the uncle, Zhang Chi felt as if he had nothing to do again.

Zhang Youliang said here: "Don't be stunned, I wore some mutton skewers in the refrigerator, you take them out, put up the small oven, and eat with Xiaojuan while baking yourself, just eat and play."

Hearing the uncle's words, Zhang Chi went into the house and took out the meat skewers from the refrigerator, good guys, this whole big box, in addition to the beef and mutton skewers, there are crispy bones, chicken tenders, and some pork belly.

This thing is going to be roasted, so what kind of roast beef do you eat, even if you want to boil or something, it's difficult, this skewer has at least eight or nine catties of leftover meat after removing the pole, let yourself and my sister roast and play?
