The Best Small Farm Chapter 77

   Chapter 77

The next day, Li Han got up early to wash up, and was busy cooking for Dudu. Today will be very busy, and I don't have time to cook at noon, so I just make it together in the morning, stew beef, butter bread, bake a box of cookies, and cut it up. A plate of donkey meat and braised beef, tofu, peas and beef soup, sprinkled with some coriander, beef soup Dudu likes to eat, put it in an insulated rice bucket to eat at noon. Dudu didn't know when he woke up, changed into a denim jacket, and watched his father cooking while lying on the kitchen counter, with a small mouth like a greedy cat.

  Li Hanle squeezed Dudu's little nose and said. "You're hungry, go brush your teeth, wash your face, eat, and dad will send you to grow vegetables at Grandpa Whitebeard's house." "Dudu wants to help dad chase the lambs." Dudu raised his head and said.

   "Very good, let's drive the sheep first and then go to Grandpa Whitebeard's house. Dad squeezed the toothpaste for you, and brush your teeth." Li Han was busy with the dishes, talking to Dudu, who nodded his head vigorously. "Well, Dudu is very good."

Dudu carried a small red basin and a small basin with a toothbrush and a towel in the basin. Dudu ran to the pool, carried a stool to scoop water, and brushed his teeth. The father and daughter liked to brush their teeth outside. It was comfortable. The bathroom was too small and too awkward. Comfortable, Dudu brushes a bunch of bubbles, giggles happily, blows bubbles, more than Dad, nods proudly, puts away the toothbrush, washes his face with water, three strokes from the left and three strokes on the right, baby sister teaches Dudu how to wash his face , Twisted little butt, well washed.

   smeared Xiangxiang, put on a little cowboy hat, sent the little red basin to the room, and Dudu ran to the kitchen to show his father. "Dad, Dudu has white teeth, washed his face, and smells good." "Good boy, help Dad bring the dishes to the table, let's eat."

   "Yeah." Nodding his head happily, he came to the dining table with a plate and climbed a chair to put the dishes and chopsticks. Dad was longer than Dudu, and he nodded his head with satisfaction. In the morning, rice porridge, small steamed buns, stir-fried side dishes, pickled duck eggs, Li Hanhuang gave the whole thing to Dudu, Dudu tilted his head and used a small spoon to dig out the oily salted duck eggs, not to mention how happy. "Little greedy cat, eat slowly." Li Han helped Dudu to wipe the oil from his mouth.

  Dudu helped Dad to clean up the dishes and wash the dishes after breakfast. Li Han's dishwasher was useless for a long time. One big and one small stood on the stool, washing the dishes with big hands and small hands. "Do Dudu wash? Dudu wash?" Dudu twisted her little buttocks and acted coquettishly. This is not what a baby looks like. When did Dudu learn it, Li Han was speechless. "Okay, Dudu wash, Dad will help you wash it." "Yeah." Dudu was happy, washed the tableware, disinfected and put it away.

  Li Han packed Dudu's lunch and put it in his bag to explain to Dudu, donkey meat and braised beef, as well as a few snacks for Grandpa Whitebeard to eat. Dudu said it again and remembered. Li Han was very embarrassed when he picked some vegetables for Dudu and went to eat and play at other people's houses several times.

Li Han drove out the pickup truck from the garage and hung it on the ox cart. Niu Niu Dudu rode and followed the pickup truck to George Farm. Houghton and Jim were driving the pickup truck and dragging the cart out. The cart was carrying the construction of sheep pens. The fence and plank, Lulu and Dinah are pulling the board house and hanging behind the tractor, Lulu, four or five sheepdogs, led by two border collies, are driving the sheep into the flock, the herd, ready, some The little lamb was left behind, and the rest of the sheep followed.

The arrival of Dudu with the white wolf caused a lot of confusion, a few shepherd dogs barked, the cattle and sheep were in a commotion, Dinah and others were a little stunned, the white wolf was huge, shining with wolf light, whoever saw it, Fortunately, there was Dudu, and Dudu patted the white wolf. "My dog ​​is good." "Han, this is really a giant." Lulu hid far away in fright. Hutton and Jem's eyes changed, different from Lulu, Jem and Hutton were different. They have really dealt with wolves. This is a giant wolf, a white giant wolf, and it is rare to be an extinct North American white wolf. The two of them whispered in their hearts, it is impossible.

   "The White Wolf is a Dudu guard dog. Dudu is optimistic about the White Wolf, so don't scare the little lamb." Li Han explained with a smile. "Well, the dog is very good." Dudu patted the big head of the white wolf and hung it, the dog is fine.

   "What a pretty big guy, yes, not much." Jem said with a smile.

"Yeah, it's very beautiful, this guard dog is really good." Houghton and Jem looked at each other and shook their heads with a smile. They were busy carrying sticks and tools. full. Li Han came to help, and Lulu and Dinah hung up the mobile RV.

Dinah drove the horses out of the barn, drove hundreds of cows to pasture number four, turned around and helped the rumpus set up, just waiting for Jem's side to be ready, changing the field is not an easy task, Drive a group of cattle and sheep to the pasture more than ten miles away, the weather is very hot, and there are many things to prepare along the way. In particular, it is tiring to drive cattle. Several pastures in the middle have to let the cattle cross a small river. The cattle cross the river back and forth, and many calves dare not cross the river. Fortunately, this time it is only a sheep, but the sheep need to take a detour. It's not easy for the sheep to cross the river. They need to cross two pastures on the road. Li Han said hello early yesterday and borrowed the field. Fortunately, the two families are familiar with each other and agreed.

  Everything was ready, everyone set off, Dinah stayed behind to take care of the cattle and the farm, Li Han, Lulu, Jim, Houghton, plus Dudu, two border collies accompanied them and set off with the sheep. It was very lively all the way. Dudu rode the calf and chased the lamb a few times. The little guys ran very happily and were interested in everything.

We stopped and walked all the way, and finally arrived at Glasserman pasture. The pasture was huge, and most of it was on the hills. There were many weeds with red flowers on the hills, and they were growing fiercely. Houghton and Jem told Li Han that this kind of Weeds threaten the growth of pastures. Glassman has no intention of managing pastures, and has no plans to pay for chemical herbicides. Free rental is a solution to this problem.

Lulu drove the tractor to the hillside, parked it, and parked the mobile RV here. Lulu has to stay here for three or four months. It is very hard to prevent wild animals from stealing the sheep at night. Put them together and let the sheep graze in different areas.

  It is not easy to be alone for three or four months. Only Lulu is willing. Americans are not willing to do such hard work. It is too far from the town, there is no water and electricity, and the transportation is inconvenient. Li Han has worked for a while and knows it is hard work. "Lulu, vegetables and fruits, meat and water, put them here first. Houghton and Jem will deliver them every two days. Work harder."

"No problem, boss, hey, I've lived in the mountains for up to nine months, which is nothing." Lulu is actually very grateful to Li Han. The salary is higher than others. Some ranches only pay eight or nine hundred dollars a month. Li Han gave a thousand, which is very good.

  Li Han took the things ready to eat and drink from the pickup and talked to Jem and Houghton. First, he sent Dudu to Glassman's house to play for a while, and then he came back to help build the temporary sheepfold. Driving a pickup and riding a calf toot, all the way to Glassman Manor. From a distance, it really looks like a small castle. I have to say, Glassman really enjoys it. Several bullies and a few German shepherds startled Li Han.

The accompanying white wolf was irritated, and he roared and confronted more than a dozen bullies. Seeing that a fight was about to happen, Dudu jumped off Niuniu, clenched his small fists, happily ran to the bully, and knocked on the head. Like a bully, actually lying on the ground obediently, woo woo, pitiful, the four German shepherds hid early, and the white wolf was knocked back by Dudu. Li Han was stunned for a moment, why did he forget Dudu a few times, thinking that these bullies have been taught a few times by Dudu.

Not long after    came to the door, Mr. Glassman's butler came over and opened the door. "Miss pandora." "Grandpa Visa, hello." "Hehe, come in quickly." Li Han was ignored by Huali Li and was speechless. He didn't mean to invite Li Han in at all. On Bai Niu, rushing in, Li Han did not forget to explain a few words. "Dudu must be obedient, don't be naughty, Dad will pick you up in the afternoon." Visa found someone to bring Dudu in, stayed and handed Li Han a contract.

  The free rental contract for the pasture, Li Han checked it and signed it without any problem. Visa took it and left, closed the door, Li Han was speechless, and drove his pickup back to the Grassman pasture. Houghton and Jem, Lulu had circled a place where they were digging holes with machines and burying them in wooden posts.

  Li Han came to help, driving the tractor, pushing the soil, leveling the sheepfold, busy all morning, eating the bread and braised beef that he brought at noon. "Here's a beer." Li Han brought a small bucket of beer. Jem, Houghton, and Lulu were all welcome. It was a hot day. After working all morning, I was thirsty early. Drinking cold beer is really cool. After resting for a while, he resumed his work in the afternoon, rushing to build the sheepfold before dark. Li Han was busy until three or four o'clock and planned to continue beeping.

On the other side, Dudu drove the ox cart and brought the white wolf into the Glassman Manor. Glassman, who was reading in the lawn pavilion of the manor, heard Dudu's laughter and stood up, showing a rare smile to the people around him. said. "Bring out the prepared snacks." "Yes, sir."

  Dudu waved his little hand from a distance, Grandpa Whitebeard, Dudu jumped out of the ox cart, held a big bag, and gave Grandpa Whitebeard a gift. Glassman was very happy to see and Dudu took out gifts one by one, small things, souvenirs of Anxi, small terracotta warriors, trinkets, and meat to eat. "Grandpa Whitebeard, the meat is delicious, and Dudu likes to eat it." Dudu said while smashing his mouth, sneaking, Dad said, Dudu will drool, shy, a dish of donkey meat made of sauce , Li Hanguangguang bought dozens of kilograms of this, it tastes good, old brand, delicious.

  Dudu loves to eat Glassman, who is cute and amused when he sees Dudu's gluttonous mouth, hehehe laughs. Dudu pouted, Grandpa Whitebeard didn't believe it. "Grandpa Whitebeard, do you want to eat it? It's delicious." Dudu da da little mouth, Dudu has eaten much better. Dad said that he would give Grandpa Whitebeard a taste. Dudu ate Grandpa Whitebeard's delicious cake. .
