The Best Small Farm

  Chapter 63 At the Cowboy Market

"Hee hee, Uncle Slacker got up." Early in the morning, Bao Bao and Dudu were arguing with Li Han. Last night, Li Han accompanied Zhou Hao, Zhou Rui, and Wu Miaomiao for a while. He was very tired and fell asleep again. Be late, get up early in the morning. ‘

Get up and pack up. With the two little guys going downstairs, Zhou Hao and several others have already got up. Wu Miaomiao and Zhou Rui are helping their mother tidy up the room, pick vegetables and cook. Zhou Hao follows his father and brother-in-law to brush the horse and clean. The bullpen is up. Li Han smiled and scratched his head. He was a little embarrassed. After washing, he rode a quad bike with Dudu and the baby, and rushed to the stable. Distant septic tank, rinse it.

  Don't say, Li Han's observation of Zhou Hao is really good, he learns very quickly, and Li Han does the work of brushing horses himself. Xiaohongzao has a bad temper. Except for Dudu, only Li Han can get close, and others don't show face. Zhou Hao didn't know what to do with the brush, Xiaobai Niu, Dudu and Baobao were taking a bath, and Xiaohongzao was not easy to approach. Dad waved his hands when he saw it, and said, "Xiao Zhou, come and help me." "Okay." Dad was very happy to point out Zhou Hao, how to brush the horse.

   In the morning, he was busy cleaning the cowshed, cleaning the stables, transporting cow dung and horse dung, brushing the horse, buckling the hooves, and after the busy work, drove the horse to the small pasture to graze. "If you don't give it a try, it's not difficult to ride a horse." Li Han patted the horses on the side. These are all riding horses, with a mild temperament. "Try Xiao Zhou, this horse has a docile temperament and is quite good." Brother-in-law patted Zhou Hao on the shoulder and said with a smile.

My brother-in-law and my father rode around the farm every morning. It’s good. Come back to brush the horses, buckle the hoofs, let the horses go, and have an extra bowl for breakfast. It’s a little uncomfortable to not ride a horse for a day. Dad was often complained by the old sister and the mother, but the brother-in-law and the father still enjoyed it. They seemed to be babys, and when they had time, they helped the horse to comb the hair and walked on the lead.

The few horses on the small farm are well-trained riding horses with gentle dispositions. My brother-in-law encouraged my sister to learn how to ride horses. In two days, my brother-in-law led the pasture for a walk. Dad saw that this method was good, and it was boring to persuade my mother to ride a horse and walk around at home. When my mother saw my sister talking, it was very good, and she was a little moved. When I let my father take a horse and ride around for a walk. Li Han was quite surprised by his brother-in-law and his father. They were really amazing. Now that his brother-in-law persuaded him, Zhou Hao gritted his teeth and said, let's try it.

   Zhou Hao was still a little nervous, Li Han pointed out a few tricks, first get acquainted with the horse, it was good, and after a while Zhou Hao rode on the horse, Li Han was afraid that the horse would be startled, so he led him for a walk. Dudu and Bao Bao came over in a ox cart, and the far away Bao waved his little hands and shouted loudly for breakfast. "Let's come back tomorrow when we have time, let's go, go back to eat, and have been busy all morning." Back in the small building, breakfast was placed on the table.

Breakfast is quite homely, rice porridge and steamed buns, a few side dishes are fried, vegetables are grown on the farm, a plate is cut in half and placed with salted duck eggs. , the side dishes are refreshing, duck eggs and small dried fish are eaten, rice porridge and steamed buns taste good at home, Wu Miaomiao and Zhou Rui said it was delicious, my mother was happy and said to eat more, Dudu and Baobao are two little guys alone After eating three duck egg yolks, my sister, my mother, and my father all gave it to the two little guys.

   After breakfast, the family carried milk buckets to the cowshed to milk cows. Zhou Rui, Wu Miaomiao, and Zhou Hao were also fresh for the first time. Li Han was a veteran in charge of teaching the three of them how to milk milk. The milk bucket is fixed, sandwiched between the legs, and the hands are moderately hard, the cows will also be afraid of pain, and the two little guys, Dudu and Baobao, do not need stools at all. Novice, it took a long time to eat breakfast, Dinah was driving the tractor to carry the milk, and the milking work was not finished yet.

  Dinah came to help. Once the expert made a move, it was different. The semi-skilled teacher Li Han stepped down. The tricks taught by Dinah were very practical. The milk was boiled and sterilized, and the jars were transported to the trolley. Li Han held Dudu's little **** and lifted the little guy who was climbing into the car. Dudu and the baby went over to help Dina feed the lambs. Zhou Rui was very curious. followed.

Dinah drove the tractor and pulled the milk can away. Li Han and the others came to the warehouse. There was a small pile of seeds in the corner of the warehouse. Dudu exchanged them from the space. Watermelons, pumpkins, winter melons, pumpkins, and some cucumbers. Lettuce, carrot seeds, and seed **** were smashed, and they were also packed in a small bag, pumpkin and watermelon. The seeds Li Han planned to sow today. "Zhou Hao, can you drive the tractor?" Li Han picked out the watermelon seeds and pumpkin seeds, along with the carrot seeds, and put them on the tractor.

   Zhou Hao shook his head, the tractor had never been driven. "Have you ever driven a car? Actually, it doesn't make a difference. You can drive a car, and you can learn it after a while." My brother-in-law said with a smile. Watermelon seeds and pumpkin seeds are directly sown. Breeding is too troublesome. Just sprinkle carrots.

   Zhou Hao nodded and planned to try it. Li Han first drove the tractor out and came to an open area of ​​the farm. Li Han parked the tractor. "It's okay, try it, this thing is similar to a car, this is the gear, the accelerator."

Li Han was sitting next to Zhou Hao. It was not difficult to drive the tractor. He didn't have much time in the meeting. Zhou Hao had almost learned it. When they returned to the vegetable garden, Li Han and Zhou Hao drove a tractor alone. Now, the place is not big, and it is inconvenient for the newly purchased big guy to move around, so he can only do half-mechanical and half-manual work. He is busy all morning, and the pilgrimage is finally ready. Watermelon and pumpkin are planted, and a small seeder is used to push along the road. , After a while, the planting work was completed.

   I took a break at noon, watered in the afternoon, and had a meeting. It was almost over. After 2:00 in the afternoon, the vegetable garden was busy, and I went back to the small building to take a shower. Zhou Rui happened to be back when Dudu and Baobao went to sell vegetables in the town. After discussing it, Li Han planned to take a few people to George's Farm and pick some vegetables. The tractor was hanging on a scooter, and Zhou Rui was talking about the toot all the way, which made the baby pouted, so unhappy, Zhou Rui deliberately seemed to tease the baby. "Han, it's really big here. Are all these places yours?"

  Li Han nodded and said. "Yes, it's all over here. In fact, I'm not that big. The Xiaowang Farm is not far away. It takes half a day to turn around." The tractor drove to George Farm, Zhou Rui and Wu Miaomiao looked around in surprise. , The small farm is already very beautiful, but it is still worse than George's farm, especially the large lawn, the woods are looming and the stones are built into a small castle-like house, surrounded by beautiful flower beds, bright flowers, it is really beautiful.

  Tall pine and maple trees, small wreaths, horse farms in the distance, especially the surrounding spring water, the lawn is very beautiful. Dudu took Aunt Zhou Rui to see the vegetables that Dudu planted. Dudu planted a lot of colorful vegetable circles, which were hidden in the woods, cute little circles.

  Dudu stayed in the grove for a while, and brought a lot of little squirrels, four or five little squirrels, chattering around Dudu's feet. Zhou Rui, Wu Miaomiao, the baby liked it very much. Li Han made a pot of coffee to greet a few people. Compared with the small farm building, the house here is bigger, especially the fireplace is very beautiful. "It's really nice here, the surroundings are really nice."

   Zhou Hao looked around with his coffee in hand. The balcony on the first floor was more than 30 square meters, and more than half of it was outside, with tables and chairs on it.

After drinking a cup of coffee, resting for a while, I took off the baskets from the trolley. Everyone helped Dudu pick vegetables, lettuce, greens, and coriander. They were very fresh and tender. It's all good.

But tomorrow Li Han plans to take his family to a cowboy market. The market sells all kinds of cowboy equipment, organic vegetables and fruits. Second-hand items are like domestic markets. Once or twice a month, there are also lively performances by country singers. of.

  I plan to visit with my family tomorrow, pick some vegetables and sell them, and join in the fun. My parents haven’t been out for a long time. There is nothing to do on the farm now, so it’s good to go out and play. Zhou Hao and a few people heard that they plan to go there. It is enough to go back and forth for a day not far away. After lunch is ready, they may bring some good things. Li Han has found two good revolvers. －－－－－Ask for the Sanjiang ticket, I think it’s not bad, collect it, recommend the ticket, click to support the famous kiln, thank you, and thank you for the third update tomorrow on the classified list.
