Chapter 96: Little Temper
Early the next morning, Jian Heng came together, and directly pulled the sleepy-eyed Zhang Jialiang out on horseback to prepare to adapt to the cattle, who knew that when the two rode to the grove where the cattle lived, the cattle had disappeared.
They followed the traces of the cattle and soon found them in a new pasture, and the two of them counted all the cattle a lot, not only the cattle, but also the sheep and the deer, and leisurely ate in the knee-deep pasture, and some of the cattle and sheep also lay directly on the grass, lying down and eating, looking very comfortable.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Jian Heng turned his head to Zhang Jialiang and said, "You cowboy may be unemployed!" ”
"Then I can't practice my lasso anymore?" Zhang Jialiang reached out and took his wide-brimmed cowboy hat, reached out and scratched his head, and then asked, "That means I don't have to get up so early every morning in the future?" ”
Jian Heng glanced at him and said: "Look at your beauty, the cattle may not have to be driven in the future, but don't clean up the cow dung in the cowshed, the horse manure and horse urine in the stable can't just be left to be left like that, don't you want me to do this work?" ”
"How many cows and horses can be pulled in one night, the work is easy!" Zhang Jialiang didn't have any concept of this at all, and said directly disappreciatively.
Jian Heng didn't want to explain to him, he would have a deep understanding of this thing in a few days.
Everything is fine now, Jian Heng took the reins and prepared to turn around and go back to the house, because there are many things today, not only do you have to prepare to cut grass for silage, but you also have to take Denver to stretch the strings for a group of lazy insects in the engineering team.
Jian Heng was just about to leave, when he heard the neighing of a horse not far away, stopped the horse and looked sideways, and found that the black bean was happily running towards him.
However, it didn't get close to Jian Heng, it seemed to be wary of Zhang Jialiang next to Jian Heng, but it was about seven or eight meters away from Jian Heng and snorted, holding its head high from time to time, and its body jumped gently back and forth, seeing Jian Heng's joy on the side.
"Get out of the way, don't scare the black beans!" Jian Heng motioned for Zhang Jialiang to take two steps to the side and let the black bean come over.
Zhang Jialiang lightly pinched the horse's belly and walked towards Jian Heng ten meters away, while muttering in a small voice: "When did you establish a relationship with Black Bean?" It's also so weird! ”
Jian Heng's ears were not back, so he naturally listened to his words, and said without replying: "Just when you slept like a pig yesterday, I couldn't sleep and just came out to take a turn, and I happened to meet a black bean, and then I communicated with it."
"You don't take me either, I especially want to learn how to train horses" As soon as Zhang Jialiang saw that he was leaving, Heidou walked towards Jian Heng and said with a little envy.
Jian Heng replied directly: "You still have to practice horseback riding first, practice horseback skill, and wait until you can skillfully grasp how to become a real ranch cowboy and then mention the matter of learning to train horses, you can't just want to run, tell you that you are still far from this step now."
As soon as he bent down, he used the horse's body to block Zhang Jialiang's sight, and reached into the grass to touch it, which seemed to have pulled some grass, but in fact, what he took out was space grass.
The black bean smelled the familiar smell, and immediately leaned over, straightened his neck and went to eat the grass in Jian Heng's hand.
When Jian Heng found that the grass in his hand was gone, he reached out to touch the bridge of the black bean's nose, but unfortunately the black bean paused, or retreated, and couldn't touch it, but judging from the current situation, it is much better than yesterday.
"Okay, let's go back" Jian Heng is not in a hurry, anyway, the black beans can't run anywhere in the pasture, and one day they will become their own mounts.
took Zhang Jialiang back to the front of the house, Zhao Wei and Huang Xiaodong had already arrived, of course, the engineering team for the construction of the ranch also came, and the entire ranch seemed to have become a big construction site again, and people came and went endlessly.
Jian Heng also has a lot of things on hand, mainly cutting grass to make silage.
Under Jian Heng's arrangement, Zhao Wei and Zhang Jialiang took turns driving the tractor to cut the grass and use the baler to bale the grass, while Huang Xiaodong was responsible for transportation, and Jian Heng took the barley and wheat sisters to cut the grass and bag it.
Anyway, everyone was so busy that they had to go to the small restaurant in town to order two meals.
After a few days in a row, seeing more and more silage wrapped in plastic bags in the warehouse, Jian Heng's heart became more and more steady.
Honk! Honk! Honk!
Just when Jian Heng was busy piling silage into the warehouse, he suddenly heard the sound of a horn and wanted to come out to see what was going on, but before he walked out of the warehouse door, he directly heard the sound of wheat.
"Zhao is back, Zhao is back!"
If you don't know, Jian Hengguang listens to this voice, maybe he thinks that Mai has taken a fancy to Zhao Changshan, and the shouts of these shouts are full of emotion.
When Jian Heng walked out of the warehouse door, he found that not only Zhao Changshan came, but also a young man he didn't know, about twenty years old, and a middle-aged man in his forties who was traveling with the young man.
Zhao Changshan was chatting with the two of them at this time, and when he saw Jian Heng coming out, he laughed loudly and said, "Boss, fortunately, I am not dishonored!" ”
After speaking, he proudly reached out and patted the small van truck behind him, and there were several pig cries in the van.
Jian Heng saw that the license plate of the truck was still from New York, and he knew that he had driven all the way through several states, so he said repeatedly: "Hard, hard!" ”
I just wanted to ask Zhao Changshan who this reposition was, but who knew that the young man opened his mouth and asked first.
"You're Henry Jean?" There was something strange in the young man's eyes, as if he couldn't look down on the man he was looking at.
Jian Heng felt it, but he didn't care.
Because Jian Heng also looked down on this kid.
Look at this kid's dress! The smallest of the clothes is estimated to be two sizes larger, the crotch of the pants hangs directly to the knees, the whole person can hardly see the legs, the head is full of dirty braids, and the whole body shakes with the tone when he speaks, and he knows what kind of hip-hop style it is at a glance.
You can say that he has a personality, but this does not prevent Jian Heng from disliking it, not to mention that Jian Heng estimates that all the cowboys here will not like such people.
In Jian Heng's opinion, when you talk to someone, your whole body trembles, it is impolite, and taking impoliteness as a personality is simply a manifestation of a lack of tutoring, and it has nothing to do with any personality.
For Jian Heng, a person who trembles all over his body when he talks to himself, and leans his body against himself, is a person who lacks the minimum politeness to himself, and for someone who is not polite to himself, then Jian Heng naturally has no good face for him.
There is a saying that face is given by people, but face is lost by oneself, and this is what it means!
You can talk like this to a familiar person on a regular basis, but you shouldn't talk like that to a stranger. Jian Hengcai would not consider that he was hired by Zhao Changshan, or who he was.
"I'm Henry Jean! Where did you come from, now, I don't care who you are, get the hell out of my ranch! Jian Heng stretched out his hand and pointed to the door and said unceremoniously.
Jian Heng's words directly stunned the young man: "You told me to leave?" ”
"If I have a gun in hand now, you don't leave, it's better to run with your head in a zigzag and get out of my ranch!" Jian Heng said: "Now, get out of here for me, and come back after figuring out how to be polite when talking to others!" ”
"Jane, Jane! This is my brother! Big Mac happened to come out at this time, and when he saw this scene, he hurriedly said.
When Jian Heng heard this, he frowned and glanced at Damai, and said in disbelief: "Your brother? ”
said this on his lips, but thought in his heart: How can you have such a ghost brother, your father was not angry with him?
It was hard for Jian Heng to imagine what would happen if an old-fashioned farmer had such a son in his family on Montana's side, and he was probably either kicked out of the house or locked up in the barn for reflection.
Maybe the farmers in Iowa are more open-minded?
Jian Heng was a little unsure.
"Isn't it like that?" The young man said immediately.
"If you're standing in my house and want to talk to me, stand up for me, at least as if I were talking to you!" Jian Heng looked at him and said.
I don't know why, the young man was a little unconvinced, he looked up at Jian Heng's gaze, just for an instant, he suddenly felt that his heart was sudden, he felt that the man in front of him would really beat himself in front of his sister, not joking at all.
Shrugging his shoulders, the young man took two steps back.
Damai was not angry, and walked to Jian Heng's side and said, "My brother Dao Matthew, this is Jean, my boss. Jean, this is Donald, Derek Donald, my father's farm assistant".
"Hello, Mr. Tang Qide, welcome to the Silent Lake Ranch" Jian Heng politely stretched out his hand to the middle-aged man, not at all domineering as he was just now.
The middle-aged man stood very straight and shook hands strongly: "Hello, Mr. Jean! I'm here to deliver a horse to Miss McAvoy."
After speaking, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the small pickup truck behind him, which was dragging a horse-drawn carriage behind it.
Jian Heng was a little curious, turned his head to Zhao Changshan and asked, "How did you meet together?" ”
Zhao Changshan said: "We met Chamberlain from South Dakota, and it was a coincidence, we stopped at the same restaurant, because there were many people inside, and we directly shared a table, and when we chatted, we knew that they were also coming to Montana, and when we arrived in Montana, we found that we were walking the same way, and then chatted, it was actually to the same ranch, do you say this thing is a coincidence?" ”
Hearing Zhao Changshan say this, Jian Heng was also quite surprised, this kind of probability really doesn't know what to say.
"What a coincidence," Jian Heng said casually.
"Jane, let you see our horse" Big Mac didn't care about her brother's unhappy face at all, she respected her brother's dress, but she didn't think Jian Heng was wrong, politeness is indeed relative, if you don't respect others first, others will naturally not respect you.
Damai didn't think about this at all, and when he saw the carriage, he happily set up his horse to Jian Hengxian.
Jian Heng was also very curious, the two sisters had always been full of praise for their horses, so they followed Damai and walked a few steps and stood next to the carriage.
Through the breathable window, Jian Heng saw a part of a horse, and based on the part he saw, Jian Heng felt that this horse should be good.
Bang dang!
Damai stretched out his hand and opened the deadbolt of the back compartment of the carriage, opened the door, and when the two horses were presented in front of Jian Heng, Jian Heng knew that what the two sisters said was true.
The whole head of the horse in front of me is slightly smaller, the skeleton of the front chest is very large, the muscles are also very strong, and the hind hips are very wide, so you can see that it is full of strength at a glance, but the whole body still looks very well-proportioned.
Not only is it good-looking, but it is also very well groomed, and all the manes on the neck have been carefully groomed, tied into a dozen or so small braids, and even the tail has been tied into a bunch.
There is no need to look at the bloodline or anything, Jian Heng felt that the friendship price of the horse breed that the two sisters said last time was really a friendship price.
"Good horse!" Jian Heng praised.
The young man said, "Of course! ”
Big Mac saw his brother interject again, and said, "Matthew, this is not a big city, if you go out dressed like this, you will be beaten up if you speak in such a tone!" ”
Cowboys are never very personable gentlemen, and they don't like the eyes, and after a couple of drinks, they're sure to say a few words about someone like Matthew McAvoy who shows up in a bar and dresses a little 'sissy'.
Let's put it this way, Matthew's dress is not a problem at all in the city, and it may be fashionable in New York, Los Angeles, or maybe even fashion.
But if you go to the small bar in the town where Zhang Jialiang frequents, it won't end with a few jokes, and as soon as he is beaten, there is almost no chance of being spared.
was interrupted by this troublesome kid, and Jian Heng forgot about the carp.
No matter how good the horse is, it is also barley and wheat, and Jian Heng feels that it has little to do with him. I used to think about breeding, but now Jian Heng doesn't want to think about it, first, it's not good to take advantage of others, and second, it's really not suitable for such a good horse to work on the ranch, this look knows that it's a race-level horse, and it can't do rough work!
