The two of them chatted happily. They were old classmates. No matter when they met or how many years passed between them, if they sat together, as long as everyone was willing to talk, there would always be something in common.
This is why classmates are one of the three pillars of life. They have common experiences and have spent some time together. However, this period of time is still kind of disinterested. Once they meet and chat, they will not be strangers.
"Where do you live now? Have you bought a house here?" Zhang Chi asked.
Qian Guoan said: "No, I'm going to live in a house now. Renting a house here is pretty cheap and it's safe. It's not like where I lived before. Thieves come around every day, and there's nothing you can do against them. Like us
These people don't know how to use guns. I was visited by thieves three times a month."
Zhang Chi burst into laughter.
American thieves are arrogant. Sometimes they don't shy away from others. Most of the time you can tell them by looking at their colors. Some people seem to be born purely bad, and their families are also bad. There are dozens of people in the family.
None of them are good people. Even if they take out a gun and kill someone, these people have an indifferent attitude. The only thing that makes them think it is a big deal is that someone else's gun is stuck on their own head.
Many people can't do anything about these people, and they can't even ridicule them now, because the mermaids have become chameleons now, and the so-called political correctness has become a disease.
"Except for the lack of excitement here, it's pretty good. At least it's safe. You don't have to worry about anyone robbering you when you walk in the dark..." Qian Guo'an said happily.
"If you want to settle down here, it's pretty good here," Zhang Chi suggested.
Qian Guoan said: "It's so boring. There's not even a good bar. If you go into a bar at random, they are all people in their forties or fifties, just like the left-behind elderly people in our country."
Zhang Chi has no way to refute this, because the young people here also like the feasting and entertainment of big cities, just like the young people in our country.
Many young people have left, so those who remain will naturally be older.
"How do you think you can stay here?" Qian Guoan asked Zhang Chi.
Zhang Chi thought for a moment and said with a smile: "Maybe I raise more things, so I don't feel bored."
Seeing Qian Guoan looking at him in confusion, Zhang Chi said: "I have a mountain lion, a monkey, two bear cubs, a dozen dogs, seven or eight cats, donkeys, sheep, pigs and cows at home.
Yes, if you have something to do every day, you won’t feel bored.”
"And there are bears?" Qian Guoan said.
"Well, if you want to take a look, just go to my house. You've been here for a long time and you haven't visited my house yet. Why don't you find some time in the near future?" Zhang Chi said.
Qian Guoan nodded: "Let's see, I've been busy these days. I just got here, looking for a house and decorating my home, and then I still have work here."
"It's up to you. Even if you suddenly feel like you don't know where to go, just give me a call and run over," Zhang Chi said.
As a classmate, Zhang Chi invited Qian Guoan to his home, not as a pretense, he really wanted Qian Guoan to come to his home as a guest.
"Thank you very much. I will definitely go there sometime. By the way, your brother-in-law and your sister haven't gone back yet? Are you planning to immigrate?" Qian Guoan asked curiously.
Zhang Chi shook his head and said: "No, they will spend the summer here and go back when school starts. They still have jobs in China."
"Oh, this is good. I work in China and go abroad for fun during my holidays," Qian Guoan said.
"How about you, are your parents okay? What are your plans, are you asking them to come over or are you talking about it?"
"They are not willing to come here, and they are not used to living here, and there are no group of old neighbors around. The last time they came here, they only lived here for less than a month, and my dad had to leave," Qian Guoan said.
Zhang Chi smiled and said: "Same, same."
The two of them were chatting like this. After a while, Qian Guoan took a bottle of beer and got some duck necks and ducks from somewhere. The two of them sat in the small garden of the hospital and chatted and ate.
"Da Chi! Zhang Chi!"
Zhang Chi heard his sister calling him, so he stood up and waved to his sister: "Here".
Zhang Juan came closer and said, "Your brother-in-law is awake and the doctor said he can go home."
"Oh, come right away".
After hearing this, Zhang Juan turned around and returned to the house.
Just when Zhang Chi was about to speak to Qian Guoan, Qian Guoan smiled and said: "Okay, you can go about your business, I'm going back too."
"You're in this class, tsk, it's comfortable," Zhang Chi said with a smile.
Qian Guoan said: "That's because I'm not busy today. If I get busy, I won't be able to touch the ground. Okay, you go. I'll have time to go to your place in two days to have a look."
Zhang Chi entered the house, stood at the door and looked in, and found that his brother-in-law was already sitting on the bed, sitting sideways. It seemed that the half-stretched buttocks were not healed yet.
It's normal for the snake bite to heal after a few hours. Then he is not Zhang Chi's brother-in-law, but Wolverine.
"Can you leave?" Zhang Chi asked.
Sun Yanping waved his hands, stood up with a painful look on his face, then put his hands on his waist and walked out step by step.
"Is this a serious injury?" Zhang Chi thought this snake was more venomous. Why didn't anyone who had been poisoned before have such a big reaction as his brother-in-law?
Sun Yanping said angrily: "You let the snake bite you on the buttocks and see?!#!@#@The bite is really in the right place."
Sun Yanping did not ask his brother-in-law to help him, he got into the car by himself.
When he got into the car, it was difficult for him to sit because he was injured on his hip, so he could only sit on his side. Thanks to the large space of the pickup truck, it was easier for him to sit on his side.
"How about I just send you back to the ranch? It's much more convenient to get to the ranch here than back," Zhang Chi said.
It only takes about forty minutes to get to my own pasture from here, and more than an hour from here to the public pasture where horses are caught.
"No, no, I'd better go back to the place where I caught the horse and raise it. By the way, where is my snake?" Sun Yanping asked.
Zhang Chi said: "I threw it away a long time ago. What should I do with this thing if I have nothing to do?"
"How could I throw it away? This thing bit me, so I stewed it to replenish myself..."
Zhang Chi heard the black line on his forehead, and for a moment he didn't know what to say about his weird brother-in-law. If he is bitten by a snake, he must eat the snake to replenish himself. Who invented this theory?
"You pinched them all to death, and this thing is too small. If you peel off the skin and remove the internal organs, there will be no meat. Also, I'm not allowed to eat anything weird here. It's embarrassing! It's embarrassing for foreigners to see it.
They think our four legs eat everything except the table. It has a bad influence and affects the image of Chinese people," Zhang Chi said.
When Sun Yanping heard this, he immediately felt a little pity, and he opened his mouth and said: "Oh, what a pity, it's such a fat worm."
"Okay, just be satisfied. You can't find a good place to poop. You have to poop next to a snake." Zhang Juan complained about her husband.
Sun Yanping felt that he was a little innocent and said aggrievedly: "How could I see it in the dark, and I have already swept it around with a stick, but I didn't know that this snake would not move away as if it was dead."
Zhang Chi said: "This snake will not run away when it is in danger. You are also unlucky. Other snakes would run away as soon as there is any movement, but this snake is a bit stupid and does not move. If it were not for protection, this thing would have been killed long ago.
There are so many people caught."
"What's the use of this thing, collecting venom?"
After getting better, Sun Yanping became curious.
Zhang Chi started the car and drove out of the hospital.
"This snake has something special on its body that can avoid insects. That is, where the snake stays, there will be no small flying insects. In the past, people used its skin to make wallets or decorate clothes.
The insects will not come close...".
"Oh, wouldn't it be a pity if you threw this snake away?" Sun Yanping regretted it again.
Zhang Chi said: "Can you peel skin and make leather? It would be a pity if you can't. Unless you do it yourself, no leather kneading shop will do it for you. Not only will they not help you, they will call the police to arrest you."
.
After hearing this, Sun Yanping gave up.
He was in a hurry when he arrived, but he returned at a normal speed, so Zhang Chi drove for nearly an hour and a half before returning to the camp.
Upon returning to the camp, Zhang Chi found that his grandfather and father were still asleep, and they were sitting next to the fire accompanied by Cannon.
"Are you okay?" Zhang Jiaren asked immediately when he saw the person coming back.
Sun Yanping said: "Nothing happened."
Cannon asked Zhang Chi here, and Zhang Chi replied that there was nothing wrong and that he should go to sleep first. So Cannon said hello to everyone and went to lie down and sleep in his single tent next to him.
Nothing happened. Zhang Chi was already very sleepy when he returned to the camp, so he was the first to return to the tent.
I don't know when, Zhang Chi opened his eyes, and then he couldn't sleep again.
It wasn't that there was something wrong with Zhang Chi's sleep, but that the tent was filled with the smell of salted fish.
"Good guy!"
Zhang Chi left the tent and took a deep breath.
"woke up?"
Zhang Jiaren saw his grandson coming out and immediately asked with a smile.
Zhang Chi saw his grandfather sitting by the fire and asked with a strange look on his face: "Master, why are you up?"
"I'm a light sleeper, and I really can't stand the smell of your brother-in-law's feet," Zhang Jiaren said with a smile.
Zhang Chi thought for a moment and said, "Otherwise, you can go sleep in the car."
"What about you? Don't sleep anymore. It's only half past three at night, and there's still a while before dawn," Zhang Jiaren said.
Zhang Chi said: "It's okay. I can just find a place when I want to sleep. The weather is not cold now."
He took his grandfather to the car and let him sleep in the back seat. Zhang Chi closed the door, poured some water on the ground, and then got into the gourd.
Finally, he could no longer smell the salty smell of his brother-in-law's sweaty feet, and Zhang Chi fell into a blissful sleep.
When Zhang Chi woke up, it was already getting dark.
Before dawn, the campground was already brightly lit, and everyone was preparing breakfast. After all, there was still work to do after breakfast.
Everyone finishes their work earlier and goes home earlier, so everyone doesn't want to waste time and everyone works at full capacity.
There was nothing troublesome in the morning's work, just repeating the same steps as before, just running a little further, maybe being a little more relaxed when catching the horse, not being as fussy as yesterday.
