Little Life on An American Ranch

After eating, Jian Heng rested for a while, ready to catch pigs, but was stopped by his mother when he arrived at the door.

"Come on, take this with you." Sun Xiuying gave Jian Heng a large bamboo basket, which was covered with a clean white gauze.

Uncovering a corner of the gauze, Jian Heng found that the basket was full of food, such as fried fish, meatballs, and steamed stuffed buns. The whole basket was made by Sun Xiuying in the morning to save for the New Year.

Jian Heng didn't want to bring this thing: "My mother, who still gives away these things now, who can't afford steamed buns!"

"If I ask you to give it away, you will give it away. There is so much nonsense. What do you young people know? Can the things on the street be as clean and delicious as the ones made at home?" The craftsmanship has gone beyond a few square feet of roadside stalls.

"Okay, okay, I'll give it away! Honestly, it's not embarrassing enough to give this thing away." Jian Heng muttered a few words and finally put these things in the cab.

Sitting in the car, Jian Heng heard his mother tap the window and told him to be careful on the road, so he nodded and waved his hand at his mother: "Hurry up and go back, it's still cold outside!"

After starting the car, it drove directly towards the pigsty at home.

The pigsty in Jian Heng’s house is not dirty at all, and all the pigs are free-range, and no one is watching the pigs. The only person in charge in the pigsty is a dog, a four-eyed dog, but it’s not four-eyed black, black is black It's a pity that the limbs of the body are golden-yellow hairs, which is the so-called iron clad with gold.

That's how it got its name, it's called iron-clad gold.

Seeing Jian Heng approaching, Tie Baojin immediately stood up, wagging his tail to welcome Jian Heng.

Walking to the side of the dog, Jian Chen stretched out his hand and scratched the dog's head, then got a piece of bone-in meat for it, and the iron-clad gold happily gnawed on it.

At this time, Mr. Yao also appeared at the pigsty with a big red bucket. Jian Heng thought that Mr. Yao was here to feed the dogs, so he smiled and said: "You are still thinking carefully, I forgot to let My mother cooked a little more food, and Zhao Changshan and the others were gone all of a sudden, so I didn't think about feeding the dog."

Mr. Yao looked at Jian Heng and asked strangely: "Why do you feed the dog?"

"If you don't feed the dog, doesn't the dog starve to death?" Jian Heng was even more surprised when he heard Mr. Yao's words.

Mr. Yao glanced at Jian Heng, and then sighed: "You don't know how to raise a dog, you don't know how to raise a dog! I thought you were wronged before. A good dog doesn't need to be fed, it can find food by itself."

"Ah?!" Jian Heng heard that some dogs don't need to be fed. These dogs are all hounds. In order to keep them wild, as the owner, they will not be fed. And these hounds never want to be fed. They go out hungry Find something to eat, go home to sleep with a full stomach and guard the door.

But Jian Heng never expected that his family had such a group of dogs, and he would go out to find dogs to eat.

Thinking of the dogs looking for food by themselves, Jian Heng became a little worried again: "Could it be that they go out to eat chickens and ducks from other pastures?"

After hearing this, Mr. Yao didn't want to look at Jian Heng, and said directly: "If this is the case, can it be called dog training? This dog needs to be trained to know what to eat and what not to eat, and at the same time to distinguish between domesticated and wild things. That's the real training."

"So miraculous?" Jian Heng looked at the iron covered with gold, and couldn't help reaching out and scratching its head again.

At this time, Mr. Yao walked to the side of the pigsty, and poured the buckets he was carrying into the food bowl of the pigsty one by one. The buckets contained nutritious meals for two sows.

This is what Zhao Changshan specifically asked Mr. Yao to help these few days when he left. As for Jian Heng, Zhao Changshan didn't think of using it, and knew that he couldn't afford it. More importantly, Zhao Changshan didn't trust his boss to do this kind of work.

At this time, two sows who had just given birth were squatting in the pigsty. Sows should not give birth in this season, but who made these two sows so powerful? They don’t rest on their stomachs in winter.

I was pregnant with the pig's first litter in a hurry, and all of them worked hard. One gave birth to eight piglets and the other gave birth to eleven piglets. Fortunately, the conditions here at Jian Heng are good. Although there is no heating, the pigsty is fully enclosed and there are soft grass mats in the pigsty. The little piglet has used the electric heater for a month after birth. All of them are quite strong, and it is no small miracle that none of the piglets died young.

Now the little piglets have just reached the full moon, and it has been thirty days since today, and it is almost time to prepare to wean them in these few days.

Jian Heng knew that the piglet should be weaned, not because Jian Heng knew how to raise pigs, but because Zhao Changshan had been in Jian Heng's ear so many times that Jian Heng's ears were almost callused. It's not easy for Jian Heng to deprive Zhao Changshan of the fun of a job like this, so it's up to Zhao Changshan to decide when the piglet is weaned.

Scratching the dog's head, Jian Heng let go of the dog, went straight to the door of the pigsty, jumped over the fence, and came to the playground inside the pigsty.

Now two sows who are new mothers are eating separately across a fence. When they saw Jian Heng walking in, this sow just turned her head and glanced at Jian Heng. After realizing that it was Jian Heng, she continued He lowered his head and ate his food.

Some clever little pigs followed suit, waiting for their mother to poke their little heads into the mother's food bowl to steal some food.

Ow! Ow!

Jian Heng reached out and grabbed a piglet by its two ears and lifted it up. After looking at it, he found that it was a piglet, so he put it down again.

When the sow heard the cry of her piglet, she immediately raised her head and stared at Jian Heng until Jian Heng put the piglet down before lowering her head and continuing to eat her own food.

Mr. Yao heard the little piglet screaming as if he was about to be slaughtered, and ran over curiously to have a look, and found that Jian Heng was holding the piggy's ears, so he asked curiously, "What are you doing?"

Jian Heng replied: "Pick a pig, send two gilts to Zhao Changshan's family."

"Do you have a brain? You can't tell the difference between a boar and a sow. You have to pick it up like this. The boar has balls on the back, but the sow doesn't! And the boar's penis is under the belly! Hey!" , look at you stupid!"

"Oh, I forgot about it." After hearing this, Jian Heng put down the howling pig in his hand, and began to observe.

Spotting the strongest gilt in the group, Jian Heng walked over directly, grabbed the pig's ears with both hands, and lifted the gilt up.

As soon as he got to the fence of the pigsty, he heard Tie Baojin barking loudly in his direction.

As soon as Jian Heng turned his head, he immediately yelled: "I got an x!"

I saw that sow rushed towards me with its mouth wide open. It clearly wanted to bite me and rescue its eldest daughter from Jian Heng's clutches.

Jian Heng realized that something was wrong, jumped over the fence of the pigsty lightly, but the gilt in his hand fell into the fence in a panic.

The sow saw that her daughter was out of danger from the 'bad guy', so she stretched out her mouth and gave the little sow a couple of slaps, and then hummed twice as if warning Jian Heng, the pair Only then did the pig and his wife return to the side of the food bowl.

"I got a fuck, I was almost bitten by a pig today." Jian Heng was a little restless now.

Mr. Yao smiled and said, "It's strange for a pig to bite you. You've already started stealing people's piglets. Why don't you allow the sow to protect the piglets!"

Jian Heng didn't want to talk to the old man now, so he turned over and immediately stood in the pigsty again, this time he was about to steal a piglet and ran back.

However, Jian Heng's plan was quickly seen through by the sow. When Jian Heng stood in the pigsty again, the sow didn't even think about it this time, and rushed towards Jian Heng, wailing as she rushed. shriek.

In an instant, Jian Heng stood outside the pigsty again.

"Is it fun?" Jian Heng looked at old man Yao with his hands lying on the fence, looking at him with a smile, so he yelled at the old man.

Mr. Yao smiled and said, "Why isn't it fun? You've never seen you in such a mess. Go on, go on, I'm going to see how you catch this pig today."

"I'll change the head office to another pen!" Jian Heng transferred to another sow.

Who knew that the other sow had already seen what was going on in the neighbor's house, and when she saw Jian Heng coming in, she was even crazier than the previous one. She straightened her body and ran towards Jian Heng. She didn't hit Jian Heng but There was a muffled sound when it hit the wooden fence, which shows how strong the force is, and if it hits the person right, it will at least be half disabled.
