Early the next morning, Ju An was sleeping with his head covered. Yesterday, he and his senior brother drank a pound and a half of liquor. When he stood up, he felt that everything was moving around him.
I got up several times during the night, drank several large glasses of water, and just peeed several times.
After finally sleeping more comfortably, I suddenly heard what sounded like bean grass and snowflakes neighing. I stretched my head out of the quilt in a daze, and listened with my ears. It seemed that there were really two bean grasses and snowflakes, coming nearby.
came out.
I unsteadily opened the curtains and looked down. No, these two guys were holding their necks and shouting at their windows. Doucao kept digging the ground with his front hooves.
An's figure appeared on the window sill, but the two guys stopped shouting and looked up at Ju An.
A few steps away from the two guys, Zhao Nan was taking photos of the two guys with a smile.
Ju An turned his head and looked at the alarm clock on the bedside table. It was already seven forty. Then he remembered that he overslept and it was already past the time for the two guys to eat carrots. No wonder.
Half asleep and half awake, I finished washing, put on my boots, and went out.
As soon as they went out, the two guys followed Ju An. When Ju An came out with two carrots, they turned and walked towards the stable. Now it was Ju An who was following Doucao and the others in a daze.
An was followed by Zhao Nan.
When he entered the stable, Ju An was still confused. He seemed to have seen Xue Hua enter the stall first. Dou Cao seemed to be waiting for Xue Hua to enter, so he raised the latch with his mouth, shut Xue Hua in, and then entered himself.
He entered his own compartment, then poked out his horse face, hung up the latch on his own door, and locked himself in.
Ju An's entire brain was in a semi-working state, as if a part of him was telling him that there was a problem, but he just couldn't remember where the problem was.
At this time, Zhao Nan shouted: "It's amazing." This made Ju An tremble and wake up.
"I seem to have seen this guy, opened the door, and locked the bolt myself." Ju An pointed uncertainly at Doucao's head sticking out of the small wooden door.
Looking at Zhao Nan, he nodded: "It also closed the door of that horse first, then went in and closed its own door."
Ju An knew that he was not blind. To verify, Ju An carried the carrots and walked out, turning his head to look at the bean grass.
Sure enough, Doucao picked up the latch again, trotted out, and bit Ju An's collar to prevent him from leaving. Xuehua stretched her neck to get out, and kept snoring.
When Ju An turned around, Doucao ran back to the compartment and locked himself up again.
He walked over with a carrot in each hand, fed it to the two guys and started to chew on it.
Unexpectedly, Doucao has this skill. After feeding, Ju An pulled the two guys out, started washing them, and then shoveled the manure. While waiting for the manure to be shoveled, he heard a voice: "Slowly shovel the horse manure, I'll go there."
Let’s see if Liu Chao is awake.” He turned around and saw that Zhao Nan had disappeared.
He shook his head: The job of shoveling manure is really unpopular.
After taking care of the sanitation of the stables and putting on saddles for Doucao and Xuehua, Ju An will be responsible for teaching Liu Chao and Liu Chao how to ride horses today.
When he walked out of the stable holding the reins, Liu Chao was already downstairs.
He took the two of them to the horse training ground, gave Liu Chao and Liu a brief introduction to the things they should pay attention to when riding a horse, and then demonstrated it.
Ju An said: "Don't approach the horse from behind. Being kicked like this by these big guys is no joke. Even if you are behind the horse's butt, you must put your hands on the horse's buttocks to let the horse feel you, let alone
If you approach a kicking horse casually, ladies should try not to wear flashy clothes, which may frighten the horse. Another thing to note is to try not to change clothes immediately, for example, if you wear a red coat and a green shirt underneath.
"If you take off your coat on a horse, the horse may throw you off. When approaching the horse, you should go slowly and don't rush towards the horse."
Ju An, who was holding the reins, continued to explain: "In addition, when leading the horse, be careful not to let your reins be too loose. Don't stop and look back at the horse. This way the horse doesn't know what you want to do. Be careful like me.
Keep the reins at this length".
After Lin Lin explained everything in detail, he handed the reins of Snowflake to Zhao Nan. He first gave Zhao Nan a few slices of carrots and asked her to feed the horse and establish a relationship.
Zhao Nan happily picked up a piece and put it into Xuehua's mouth. Ju An quickly stopped him: "Don't do this when feeding the horse. Put the thing in the palm of your hand like this, with your palm flat. If you feed it like that, he will definitely bite you."
, look at me like this." He put a piece of carrot in the palm of his hand and brought it to Snowflake's mouth. Snowflake tilted his head and was late.
Then Zhao Nan took Xuehua for a walk slowly = Xuehua acted very cooperatively and followed him with small steps honestly.
Xuehua cooperated very well, while Doucao was very disrespectful to Liu Chao and ate Liu Chao's carrots. As soon as Ju An put the reins in Liu Chao's hands, Doucao raised his head and stepped back to take the reins out of Liu Chao's hands.
, panting hard and snoring.
"Hey! Boy, be quiet, be quiet." Ju An had no choice but to take the reins and comfort Dou Cao. He whispered in Dou Cao's ear and stroked Dou Cao's mane. When Dou Cao calmed down, he put the reins on Dou Cao.
I handed it over to Liu Chao, and the above thing happened again.
At this time, old Thomas happened to come over and saw this scene and said: "Ann, don't try, give Steven a mare. I'm surprised you can ride on the back of Bean Grass, an uncastrated stallion."
He has a bad temper and is difficult to control. Fortunately, you didn't let Steven ride on him. Once he got on, Doucao would definitely be kicking and jumping. He wouldn't stop until he got rid of him. If you asked me to ride Doucao, I wouldn't do it.
If you like, let's go and choose a good-tempered horse for Steven to practice on."
Ju An had no choice but to take Dou Cao and tie him to a nearby pillar, and then followed Thomas to choose another horse. This time he chose a chestnut calico horse with large white flowers all over its body.
When he prepared the saddle and took it to the horse training ground, Zhao Nan fell in love with the horse at first sight and insisted on trading with Liu Chao.
"Look, what a beautiful horse it is. It's all white. Even its mane is chestnut and white. It's so beautiful." He hugged the horse's head and kissed it from time to time, leaving Ju An speechless and asking him to choose.
In other words, among all the horses, this one is the ugliest. It looks like an albino, so there's nothing good about it.
Everything went smoothly after that. The two of them led the horse around the training ground for a few laps and saw that it was almost done.
First, he put a side rein on Xuehua and taught them how to get on the horse, what to pay attention to when getting on and off the horse, and what postures to pay attention to on the horse.
First, Liu Chao got on the horse. He got on well and his sitting posture was OK. Ju Anfang lengthened the side reins: "If you put a little force on your waist or gently clamp down on the horse's belly, the horse will go away."
He learned well. Liu Chao on horseback looked like a big crab. It was like this for the first time riding a horse. He was a little scared in excitement and his movements were stiff, but Liu Chao's face was full of excitement.
Seeing Liu Chao slowly walking steadily, Ju An walked up to Zhao Nan and helped her mount the horse. Zhao Nan was relatively short, and the horseback height of the flower horse was about 1.6 meters, but it was slightly shorter than Zhao Nan.
A few centimeters apart, if Zhao Nan wanted to get on the horse, his thighs would have to be close to his chest before he could put his feet into the stirrups. In the end, Ju An held him up and put Zhao Nan on the saddle.
As soon as he got on the saddle, Zhao Nan clutched the head of the stake tightly, looking extremely nervous.
Ju An had no choice but to hold the bridle and lead her for a few steps: "Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, don't hold the head of the pile with your hands, hold the reins with your hands."
"I'm holding the reins, don't let go," Zhao Nan said nervously.
Originally, Ju An wanted to help his senior brother hold Xuehua's side rein. He glanced at his senior brother and saw that he was squatting on Xuehua's body like a giant monkey and was enjoying himself. "Well, I will hold the bridle and you hold the reins. It's okay."
There’s no need to be afraid,” Ju An said with a smile.
After holding the pinto horse and walking around the training ground for a few times, Zhao Nan got a little better. Ju An could basically let go of the reins, but people still had to follow Zhao Nan and slowly walk around for a few more times before Ju An could feel better.
Opportunity grabbed Xuehua's side rein, so Ju An grabbed one rein with one hand, and the couple circled one after the other.
After a simple lunch, Liu Chao and his wife continued to circle around in the afternoon.
When Liu Chao got on the horse in the afternoon, he said to Ju An: "Anzi, I know why many people like to ride horses. When you ride on a horse, your whole sight is completely different. A normal person's sight is so high. When you ride
While riding on the horse, my vision suddenly doubled, it felt amazing." He said while gesturing with his hands.
Ju An said with a smile: "Actually, sight is one aspect, and the other is that when you are riding a horse and galloping fast, you can hear the sound of the horse's hooves clicking on the ground in your ears. The oncoming wind, if you are in
Some fellow enthusiasts let their horses gallop together, that is beautiful. When I was in China, I was at a racecourse in the suburbs of Jiangnan. The place was very small and there was no way for any horses to run. Even if I ran, I would go around the venue. It was completely different from here. Wait.
When you can run, it would be exciting if we go out and run around together."
"Then I have to practice harder, but my thighs are a little sore this morning, and they were red when I looked at them just now," Liu Chao said.
"If there is a problem with your posture, don't clamp your legs too tightly. Pay attention to relaxing your thighs. This problem will occur when you first start riding a horse. It will get better once you become more familiar with it. You must relax on the horse. In fact, riding a horse is a kind of communication between man and horse, and they need to build up each other.
I didn’t understand trust at home, but Thomas taught me here. He told me that a good rider should learn to trust your horse, and even give yourself to the horse sometimes," Ju An said.
Liu Chao received: "I used to want to ride a horse, just ride a horse and run. After riding for a long time today, I realized that it is not such a thing. There are many things to learn, even how to hold the reins. I thought it was too simple before."
.
Ju An smiled and said: "I thought the same when I first came here. Old Thomas said, running on a horse? If you can tie a fool to the horse and run without falling off, then how can you call it good horsemanship?"
The important thing is communication. Every horse is like a person, with different temperaments. If you don't even understand your horse, you can't be called a cowboy at all."
Liu Chao nodded as he listened, deeply convinced.
