Zhang Youliang looked at the back bucket, then entered the room and asked: "Why are there still chicks?"
"Oh, I just went to Aunt Phil's house. Aunt Phil gave us, in addition to chicks, some goslings. They are all Chinese breeds, not pheasants and geese," Zhang Chi said.
Chickens, geese, and the like are not delicious because they are all cultivated varieties that only grow in size and meat. The taste is far inferior to our native chickens and geese.
It is also common sense that cultivated things grow fast, but the taste is not good. If something grows fast, it is definitely not very tasty. This is true for poultry, and the same is true for vegetables.
"Oh, she has a lot of these things at home," said my aunt Gu Ying.
Zhang Youliang smiled and said: "She is really hard-working."
Zhang Chi nodded. Although Aunt Phil had a bit of a bad temper, she was so diligent. She was busy all day long, raising geese and chickens, or feeding pigs and sheep. As long as she raised anything at home, she could still raise it.
good.
Let's put it this way, many families nearby were envious of Phil for marrying such a good wife.
"Let's have dinner early tonight," said the aunt.
Zhang Chi nodded: "I came here to have a good time at home."
"I'll make some dumplings later, stuffed with beef and green onions. Your uncle has prepared all the green onions," my mother-in-law said with a smile.
Zhang Chi smiled and said: "That's good, I've caught up today."
"I can't think of making beef without you," the aunt said with a smile.
Zhang Youliang said happily after hearing this: "Then why are you still dazed? Let's get straight to work."
"Yes, yes, let's do it! You make the noodles first, and I'll find something to feed the chickens in the car. Otherwise, I won't starve if I don't eat for a few hours," the aunt said with a smile.
The aunt was looking for something to feed the chickens, while Zhang Chi and the uncle were busy working on their own. Zhang Chi was making noodles, while the uncle Zhang Youliang was cutting beef and mixing it with dumpling fillings.
"Uncle, let's get on the machine and hang it. What are you planning to do with your hands?"
Zhang Chi asked when he saw that his uncle did not use a meat grinder after taking the meat, but directly cut the meat into small pieces the size of mahjong pieces with a knife.
"The ground meat is not good enough, I'm going to pound it here," Zhang Youliang said.
After hearing this, Zhang Chi said: "You don't have to go to such trouble, it will take you more than half an hour to knock, and you will have to wait for the guests."
"It's okay, it's still early to wait for the guests," Zhang Youliang looked at the watch on his wrist and said with a smile.
When Zhang Chi heard what his uncle said, he continued to knead his own dough. At this moment, the bread that Zhang Chi kneaded was already shiny on his hands, in the basin, and on the surface.
After patting the noodles, Zhang Chi put the noodles into the basin.
The lady who was sorting green onions came over at this time, looked at the noodles in the basin and said, "It's not enough, I'll give you more like this."
Zhang Chi was a little dazed after hearing this. After thinking for a while, he asked his mother-in-law: "Brother Xiao Wu is coming back, or is Brother Da Wen coming back?"
"You haven't come back yet, why do you ask?" Gu Ying said with a smile.
"Then there are just the three of us. I think these meetings are a bit too much, why do we still want to get together?" Zhang Chi asked.
Auntie Gu Ying said with a smile: "Make more and put this thing in the refrigerator. When you want to eat it, take it out and throw it into the pot. Once it is boiled, you can eat it. You have to wrap it anyway, so...
Wrap more. Lao Zhang, make more stuffing for you."
Hearing what his mother-in-law said, Zhang Chi had no choice but to continue making noodles.
After adjusting the amount of flour, my aunt came over to take a look and directly added another bowl of flour to the basin.
Zhang Chi didn't say much. If you want more, just pack more. This will save the couple some trouble in the future. If you want to eat, just throw it in the pot and cook.
Halfway through the meeting, Zhang Chi's cell phone rang.
Zhang Chi quickly patted his face with his hands, sticking the dough on his hands, and then grabbed his phone.
I originally thought it was Cannon or someone else, such as a nearby neighbor, but I didn't expect that the caller was actually Melika.
"Hello, Zhang Chi," Zhang Chi said after answering the phone.
"I, Melika" Melika's voice came from the phone.
Zhang Chi said: "I know, why did you call me?"
"I'm nearby and will go to your ranch to take a look later!" Merica said.
"Again?"
The words came out of his mouth.
Melika said: "We can be considered friends after all. It's a bit unkind for you to say that."
"No, I just said that casually, you can come if you want, but I'm not at the ranch right now. If you go, just go find Cannon," Zhang Chi said.
"Where are you right now then?"
"I'm at my uncle's restaurant in Folsom," Zhang Chi said.
"Then I'll be there right away, I'm nearby!" Merica said immediately when she heard that Zhang Chi was in Folsom.
Zhang Chi was a little confused and thought: Are we so familiar?
Melika is planning to open another outdoor goods store. Of course, they are currently selecting a location. Folsom is an alternative. Today, they are examining the location. They originally planned to finish the work in one day, but unexpectedly a small accident occurred.
There is no way to finish today's work, it will have to wait until tomorrow morning.
So when she had some free time, Melika decided to come over to Zhang Chi's pasture and see if there were any changes in the herd of cattle these days.
Zhang Chi doesn't quite understand. He always feels that this little girl wants to trick him, or else a pretty girl always likes to come to his place to do something.
But he didn't know that sometimes the smarter people are, the easier it is to get into trouble. The same goes for Melika. She has no interest in Zhang Chi now. She just wants to know the problems that many people can't solve. Zhang Chi, an ordinary-looking young man,
How did the fat man do it?
Curiosity killed the cat!
The culling of calves in pastures is nothing new. If you say it can be cured, it can certainly be cured. Western medicine can also cure it. But in a business society, you have to focus on costs and profits. When costs are higher than profits, then it must be curable.
There is something to give up.
Melika instinctively felt that Zhang Chi was lying, and that he must have a low-cost way to solve the problem. But Zhang Chi didn't tell her, and Melika felt uncomfortable when she thought about it.
A smart person and a very conceited smart person is not very tolerant of someone whose IQ is not as good as his own understanding of things he does not understand.
So whenever she had free time, Melika wanted to covet Zhang Chi's secrets.
There is a big gap between Zhang Chi's IQ and Melika's. She graduated from a prestigious school. Even if he relies on his ability, he is at most a college graduate. A prestigious school has nothing to do with him.
But the good thing about Zhang Chi is that he can recognize himself and is still very clear-headed. This makes some of Melika's methods useless.
Generally speaking, Melika's ambiguous smile can make a poor boy feel like a deer. He goes home and lies on the bed to have sex for a long time. But Zhang Chi is like a piece of wood and doesn't touch Melika at all.
Ka's beauty is taken seriously, and there is no other way. People who don't think about good things will generally have simple thoughts and will not think about things like pie in the sky.
Zhang Chi heard the other side hang up the phone, and then he put away the phone.
"Who is it? It sounds like a girl's voice to me."
My aunt Gu Ying has always been very concerned about this kind of thing. When she heard a girl calling her nephew, the flames of gossip immediately ignited.
"The boss who asked me to shoot commercials before didn't know what kind of style he had, so he set his sights on my ranch," Zhang Chi said.
"You don't sound very old," Gu Ying asked again.
"You're not old, about 20 years old." Zhang Chi continued to rub his face.
"What do you do at home?" Gu Ying asked again.
Zhang Chi heard the implication of his mother-in-law's words now, so he smiled and said: "It's not what you think, my family owns an outdoor goods store, so they are quite rich."
"What's wrong with having money? It's hard to talk about emotional matters. The eldest daughter of Samsung also likes the little security guard," Gu Ying said.
Zhang Chi was immediately happy: "How many such things have happened? Forget it, you will know when they come. They are not from the same family as ours."
Gu Ying was even more curious now.
Melika arrived very quickly. In less than twenty minutes, Melika arrived at the door. She stopped the car to make sure that she was in the right place, then opened the door and walked in.
"Hello, Zhang Chi!"
As soon as Gu Ying saw Melika, he felt that this girl was too beautiful. Then he looked at her clothes and other things, and then she understood why his nephew said that this girl was no longer the same as him.
At this moment, Gu Ying also stopped thinking about gossip. He has been in the world for decades, so he still knows these four words clearly.
If it were an ordinary little girl, it would be okay. She is easy to fall in love, but the white girl who came in was obviously not the kind of girl who puts love first. With just one glance, Gu Ying knew that this girl was not an ordinary kind person. There was a look in her eyes.
Shrewd, but this shrewdness is hidden.
But if he hides his temperament, he can tell at a glance that he is not a child from an ordinary family. He must be someone who can only be raised by a wealthy family.
"This is my uncle and my aunt," Zhang Chi introduced casually.
"Hello" Merica greeted the two of them politely.
"Girl, you said this in Chinese. If I hadn't seen the person, I would have thought there was a Chinese standing in front of me," the aunt praised politely with a smile.
Zhang Youliang smiled at Melika and continued to pound his minced beef.
"I spent some time in China before," Melika explained with a smile.
"What are you planning to do, make buns?" Merica asked after seeing the family's attitude.
"Eat dumplings," said the aunt.
Upon hearing this, Melika said happily: "Then I'm really lucky. I like to eat dumplings the most. What kind of fillings are they?"
"I don't know if beef and green onions are to your taste. If you don't like it, then mix it with some stuffing," Gu Ying said.
"No, no, it's fine. I don't have any taboos," said Melika.
Gu Ying said with a smile: "This Chinese is really authentic, and I know how to use taboo words."
Melika asked where to wash her hands, washed her hands, rolled up her sleeves, and came over to help.
Looking at Melika chatting and laughing with her aunt, Zhang Chi thought: Hey! This guy is still familiar with her.
