American Ranch

Chapter 240 The Blizzard Comes Again

Ye Fang picked up the teacup and took a sip, and immediately felt the difference, it was more fragrant and delicate than the thick tea leaves he drank before!
Looking down, he saw the tender buds swaying in the green tea soup, and he couldn't laugh or cry: "Okay, Xiao Yizi! Give us rough tea leaves, but you, a rich landlord, drink tender buds, and you are too careless! "

As he said that, he couldn't wait to take another sip and smack his lips. There is nothing to say about this refreshing taste!

Qin Yi couldn't help laughing at the side, thinking of them taking the rough tea leaves that he didn't like as a treasure, the feeling, not to mention how cool it is!

Ye Fang slapped him on the knee angrily, but was avoided by Qin Yi, only to see that he lost his breath when he laughed, and then he said with a smile: "If I really don't pay attention, the thick tea leaves will be fine." No, let alone take out this very little bud tea to entertain you!"

Ye Fang snorted, did not respond, and drank the tea soup in the cup without any grace, and immediately poured himself another cup.

Naturally, he wasn't really angry, but just put on a show to make Qin Yi feel guilty, and then he asked for young bud tea, the chance of success would be even greater!

Brother for several years, how could Qin Yi not know his plan, but he took out the young bud tea, but he didn't intend to hide it from him. Of course, it is impossible to give more, although the production is not small, but there is too much, how can it be precious!

"Don't worry, when you go back, I will bring you two taels!"

"It's only two taels?" Ye Fang looked dissatisfied, but in fact he was very happy, planning to go back and give the old man a tael, and keep a tael for himself, haha, everyone is happy!
Looking at his face pretending to be dissatisfied, Qin Yi said angrily: "You are content! How much can a tea tree produce?"

Ye Fang suddenly smiled, not talking too much.

But after thinking about it, he remembered the rough tea leaves again, and hurriedly said again: "By the way, Yizi, wrap some of your thick tea leaves for me later!"

"With young bud tea, why do you need rough tea leaves?" Qin Yi pretended to be contemptuous, of course he knew what this kid was planning.

Sure enough, Ye Fang suddenly had an expression of hatred for the rich: "Brother! You don't like it, but everyone who wants to drink is waiting in line!
You don't know, ever since the old man got the rough tea leaves, those old men from various families who fished and walked the birds all day long ran to my house every three days, licking their faces and asking the old man to treat them with thick tea leaves!Didn't you see, a group of high-ranking and powerful old men, like children fighting for candy, I hid at the door and laughed so hard that my stomach hurts! "

Qin Yi imagined that kind of picture in his heart, and felt that it must be very beautiful. There is a saying in the lyrics: that picture is so beautiful that I dare not look at it!

My heart is dark!

The fun day passed like this. According to Qin Yi's plan, he wanted to take Ye Fang to hunt the next day. The prey he applied for, the hunting certificate and so on, were done a few days ago. He has a good relationship with Marcus , just to say hello.

It is said that foreigners are serious in handling affairs, but there are human feelings everywhere.

Of course, the formalities still have to be handled, but the process is simplified and the efficiency is improved.

However, the plan was good, but it failed as people wished. The day before yesterday, Qin Yi greeted Kelly in the small town of Augusta, and it came true. After breakfast, the blizzard hit Augusta again!

From the news, the entire western part of Montana, from the Canadian border to northern Idaho, is shrouded in severe weather.

This kind of weather is naturally insulated from outdoor sports. Even Amanda has no tourists, so she simply closed the small shop, and came to the ranch to get together with Qin Yi and the others. At least there is a joking person to make life happy Quite a lot.

Everyone drank coffee or tea while admiring the snow scenery outside through the doors and windows.

The snowstorm this time was not smaller than the one the night before yesterday, but within ten minutes, the clean road surface was covered with a white layer of snow again!
The density of the heavy snow made it difficult for the few people in the house to see the stables and workers' houses a hundred meters away.

The snow fell heavily, and the cold wind that had subsided for two days also began to rage, blowing snowflakes against the windows, and the rustling and howling of the cold wind could be heard through the closed doors and windows.

Qin Yi slowly sips the tea in his cup, thinking that if this weather lasts until night, he will definitely be able to sleep well!

But if it really continues until night, I'm afraid there will be more than one meter deep snow. If that happens, I'm afraid it will really lead to a snow disaster.

I hope not!

However, many residents in western Montana, considering this year's severe drought, are more worried than Qin Yi, because in previous years, there has been a precedent of drought followed by snow disaster, and there are more than one cases!
Of course, these are not what Qin Yi wants to consider for the time being. Now, all he has to do is to play poker with everyone!
That's right, Amanda is not someone who can enjoy the snow quietly. She felt bored after standing with everyone for a while. The fluttering snowflakes looked messy and dizzy. Let's chat!

So, at her suggestion, Qin Yi and the three women started to play poker.

This guy Ye Fang has been staying in China, and he still doesn't know how to play in the United States. Therefore, his task is to play with the little girl and the small animals, and at the same time, he is responsible for serving tea and water. table to play!

Fortunately, the little girl can play happily with the small animals by herself, which made Ye Fang feel a lot more relaxed. He stayed behind Qin Yi, studying and helping Qin Yi with advice, but his level of studying for ten minutes , How can I come up with a good strategy, I have been directing blindly!
It's just that he never tires of it and adds a lot of jokes to the room.

Playing like this all morning, while cooking, Qin Yi called Ryan's family over, anyway, they were all idle at home, so they might as well hold a small party, chat and play poker together, it was much better than staying in the house.

After receiving Qin Yi's call and knowing that Qin Yi sincerely invited him, Ryan was not too polite, called Susie and Rachel, and came over wearing a fur coat.

After some work at noon, Qin Yi prepared two copper hot pots. Susa surrounded one pot with Rachel, Sara, and Amanda. He ate the other pot with Ye Fang, Ryan, and Susie. Angel is the most at ease, and if she wants to eat, she stretches out her little chopsticks to pick it up!

The little girl couldn't eat enough by herself, so she used small chopsticks to feed Susa and Qin Yi. Whenever the two of them ate the sliced ​​meat and vegetables she brought up with a smile, the little girl giggled. , I even had fun playing.

After the meal, eight adults just formed two tables, playing poker, talking and laughing, Ryan also talked about when he was young, and said that if a young man can't hunt, there will be no girl for him, Qin Yi immediately teased him about hunting The technique is amazing, otherwise there would not be such a beautiful wife as Suzie!

After some rhetoric, Susie smiled happily.

Americans are more open about this, and Suzie is not embarrassed. Under Amanda's coaxing, she talked about the love between the two when they were young.

For a moment, Ryan and Susie, who had been cowboys all their lives, had some aftertaste and some emotion, so many years have passed in a flash!
The adults are talking and joking here, and Angel also has her own way of playing. The little girl finds out the pet clothes that Susa bought for the small animals, and puts them on one by one, such as leather jackets, hoods, leather cushions, etc., and let the small animals have a while. uncomfortable.

They didn't wear clothes before, these things have been bought for a long time, but Susa has never given them clothes, because on the one hand, they don't want the little animals to be too delicate, and on the other hand, there is a fireplace in the house, so they can warm up keep warm.

Buying clothes is just to prevent such a snowy day from needing to take them out.

But the little girl didn’t care, she dressed them up, took a lot of photos with Polaroids, and finally took a group photo with the adults playing poker!

The whole afternoon passed happily like a crow's mouth, and the heavy snow fell like this for a whole day, and it only weakened in the evening, but at this time, the snow on the road that had been cleared before reached half a meter deep again!
After dinner in the evening, the Ryan family went back. The few people in the main house had been playing around for a day, but they lost the interest to continue, and went back to sleep one after another.

The next day, the snow finally stopped. Just after breakfast, Ryan called and told a surprise, but considering the heavy snow, there was something reasonable, about an hour’s drive to the southwest of the ranch. , the cowshed at Helm Ranch next to the Rocky Mountains has collapsed!
