In the morning, Ju An practiced boxing in the space for a while, got the two well-fed little guys out of the space, let them play freely in front of the door, put a saddle on Doucao, and ran to the pasture.
After walking around for a while, saying hello to a few busy cowboys, he returned home. He went upstairs and carried a large basket of clothes downstairs, put it in the washing machine and started washing clothes. Basically, Ju An
I only wash my clothes once every two weeks, and I have to wait until there are no clean clothes to change, so I remember that there are still a lot of clothes that have not been washed. I poured myself a cup of tea, used a purple clay pot to sit on the sofa in the living room.
Go up, drink some tea and watch the news on TV.
At first, Ju'an was not very used to it. Old Americans wash clothes and dry them directly without sun-drying. It is said that in some states, it is illegal to dry clothes outside. In the beginning, Ju'an felt that drying clothes
It feels weird to wear on the body. It doesn’t feel as comfortable as dried clothes. But now I’m slowly getting used to it. This thing is simple and convenient. You can wear it after washing and drying it. Ever since I had a cloakroom, Ju An’s clothes have never been the same.
Don't fold it, just hang it up directly after finishing it. It's very suitable for lazy people like Ju An.
I was watching the news. Some people are advocating low-carbon life. Some places are beginning to encourage people to dry their clothes. They say that it is environmentally friendly and saves energy, and the sun can also naturally disinfect clothes. What have you been doing so long ago? Who are you asking about?
People don’t know, you have forced me to get into the habit of drying clothes properly, and now I have to go back to it. Isn’t it tiring? Of course, some people hold up signs to object, thinking that hanging underwear outside is uncivilized. Anyway, I live in peace.
You are used to it. If you don't have a rally for three days or a parade for five days, you'll be bored. Especially in some big cities, even Ju'an suspects that some people rely on parades to survive. How else can they get the money to support themselves?
.
After watching the painful news for a while, I finished washing my clothes. I was just about to take the clothes upstairs to hang them up when I heard the sound of a car horn outside. I put down the clothes in my hands and walked out. I saw a pickup truck parked in the yard.
Looking at the white farm mark on the pickup truck, he knew that Lu Guangyuan was coming, and Ju An hurriedly greeted him.
"Why is it so early? I thought you wouldn't be able to come until noon. How early did you get up?" Ju An said loudly with a smile.
Lu Guangyuan got out of the car, closed the door and said: "There are still a lot of things to do at the farm, so I came here early and have to rush back soon. There are too many people visiting the farm during this time, and I am busy at home."
Several young men followed him and got out of the car. When Ju An took a look, he saw that they were all strong and handsome young men. Their skin was a little tanned and they looked like they often worked in the sun. They were also dressed like ordinary cowboys.
Wearing shirts, jeans, and Gao Bangzi's cowhide boots, the tallest one is actually over 1.9 meters, which is a lot taller than Ju An. The other two are about 1.7 meters tall, with silly smiles on their faces. Ju An looks at it
At first glance, I kind of like these guys, at least they don't look slick in appearance.
"The tall one is called Du Erzhuang, the one with the blue hat is called Li Dajun, and the other one is called Du Hu. They are from a village where my father went to work in the countryside at that time, and he is also from my hometown." Lu Guangyuan introduced
I waved to let a few people come over.
When Ju An was waiting for a few young men to come over, he patted Du Erzhuang's arm and said with a smile: "Good guy, this posture makes us Chinese look good. These arms are thick. How about your English? Can you understand it?"
"?"
Du Erzhuang smiled and touched the back of his head, not knowing what to say. Instead, the young man named Du Hu intervened and said: "Boss, we all understand. I have been working on a ranch in California for several years."
Lu Guangyuan looked on and said with a smile: "This guy is a tall guy who doesn't know how to speak. The original owner of their ranch sold the ranch, and the new owner is a bit racist. He doesn't like to hire people of color. He only likes to hire people of color."
Hire white people and find an excuse to drive them away."
When Ju An heard this, he understood. In fact, many people don't say racial discrimination, but it does exist, and the older the white people are, the worse it is. The reality in the United States is that if white people in many companies are not too different when recruiting, most of them will be replaced.
When recruiting white people, black people like to recruit black people. If I am a Chinese person, I will definitely favor Chinese people, not to mention that the closeness that is engraved in my bones cannot be erased so easily, despite the fact that a bunch of old and American politicians are shouting about equality.
etc. In fact, there are very few people who are truly free from discrimination. Take our native Chinese as an example. A black girl and a white girl are both crying and want to marry you. Which one do you choose? I guess most of them are.
White people, let alone others, Ju An himself is not too fond of black girls. Wasn't it a joke before? After marrying a black girl, when the lights are turned off, all he sees is white teeth.
Ju An smiled and said: "Farewell, boss. When I heard the Chinese boss, I felt like a nouveau riche. Just call me Brother An. Since you have worked in the ranch, there must be no problem with riding horses. Let's go."
I will take you to place your luggage first. The three of you will live in a house first. When the house over there is finished, you will have a room each when others move out. Then I will take you to the racecourse to choose some horses. There are also horses in the racecourse.
Take a look at a few pairs of saddles, pick the one that suits you and use it first. If it doesn’t suit me, I’ll buy it at some time.”
Li Dajun said: "Brother An, we are bringing our own saddles." After saying that, the three young men went to the bed of the pickup truck and took out their own saddles. When Ju An took a look, they were all very beautiful.
The handmade saddle is either carved with an eagle or a galloping horse. It has a shiny silver buckle and a thick pile head. It is definitely a high-quality ranch saddle: "Drink! It's a good saddle. I spent a lot of money when I bought it.
It’s less money.” If you look at the wear marks on the saddle, you can tell that it was used frequently.
Du Erzhuang nodded and replied with a smile: "We just arrived in California. In addition to sending money to mail home, we saved a few months before each bought a pair of saddles. They have been using them for several years." After that, the young man started from behind.
Douli each brought over a large canvas bag, which was almost half the height of a person.
Seeing that Ju An was about to take the three young men to arrange accommodation, Lu Guangyuan became anxious: "I said you three bastards, don't leave in a hurry. Please unload the pumpkins from the car."
The three guys happily put the big bag on their shoulders and the saddle under their arms on the ground, and walked back to the pickup truck with a smile. Li Dajun also said with a smile: "Uncle Xiao Qi, don't get angry.
, we will move it for you right now!”.
Lu Guangyuan smiled and scolded: "You bastard, Uncle Qi is Uncle Qi, why do you have a small character in front of it?" He followed up with a gesture to kick Li Dajun in the butt.
When Ju An leaned his head and looked into the bed of the truck, he saw, my dear, there were twenty or thirty large golden orange pumpkins, each weighing thirty or forty kilograms, and they were all round in appearance.
It's very good. In addition, there are winter melons, some mushrooms, a large stall of celery, and even dozens of corn cobs with peeled skins tied together. Ju An's eyes almost popped out when he saw them.
Already.
Ju An said: "You can just bring a few. I am alone now. Even if I eat these things every meal, it will probably be late for Christmas."
Lu Guangyuan said with a smile: "Your two old people haven't come back yet? I'm going to meet you this time. These big pumpkins are not just for you to eat. Isn't it almost Halloween? You can carve more pumpkin lanterns by then."
Isn't that the end? I'll put some more in front of the door. It looks good. Otherwise, why don't you go buy it? The celery is also grown at home. Don't you like to eat celery dumplings? Your sister-in-law specially asked me to bring them, including corn on the cob.
It's tender, just boil it and you can eat it." While nagging, he kept urging the three young men to work.
Ju An shook his head and thought to himself, just put two words at the door and it would be over. Besides, who can bear to eat pumpkins and gnaw corn on the cob every day? It seems that some of these singing things have to be given away.
He directed a few young men to place the pumpkins under the porch of the house, then put the celery, corn cobs and other things in the kitchen, took the key, and then led the three young men to the door of a house and opened the door.
The door is basically the same as old Thomas's room, with one bedroom, a shower room, and a small living room.
Seeing the three young men putting down their things, Ju An said: "You three will take up the time for a few days."
Yesterday, Ju An told Old Thomas and suggested that the three young men from China should not be arranged to go to the east, but directly to his own side. After all, this side is slightly more convenient than the east. Old Thomas
He also nodded and agreed, so that these young men would not have to mix with Spanish-speaking Chileans. At that time, except for Lawrence and Andrew, all the Chileans in the east would be hired.
After the three young men had tidied up a little, Ju An took the three of them to the pasture where the horses were scattered. The three guys each picked a horse. They will use these horses from now on. Of course, the horses will be taken care of every day.
, such as brushing the horse, buckling the hoof, except sometimes changing the horseshoe, they basically have to do the horse themselves. The ranch requires every cowboy to be a generalist, not only herding, but also the cowboys must be able to see simple cow diseases.
.
The four of them harnessed their horses, and Ju An asked Lu Guangyuan to wait under the gallery for a while, and then he led three Chinese young men towards the construction site east of the ranch where Thomas was staying. When they arrived at the construction site, they saw a ten-meter-long, ten-meter-long horse.
Several large-wheel flatbed cranes were parked next to the construction site. Lawrence was directing the crane driver to unload things below. After introducing the three people to Thomas, Ju An watched for a while. Thomas and the three young men
After chatting for a while, the three of them took off the saddles from their horses and let the horses graze freely. Then they picked up tools and unpacked the large packaging boxes.
