Yunding Ranch

Chapter 230 guests are coming
Li Yitong felt ashamed to throw it at his grandma's house. Because he was distracted, he tripped over a rock under his feet, causing the toolbox in his hand to be scattered on the ground.

However, after experiencing the embarrassment and humiliation yesterday afternoon, Li Yitong has calmed down a lot now, although his cheeks are slightly hot, but that's all.

Bending down and quickly picking up all the scattered tools, Li Yitong stood up straight again.He had thought that Lu Li would be watching him, but unexpectedly, Lu Li's eyes fell on Hulk and Teddy again, with a faint smile on his focused expression, and the sun became gentle.

Most of Li Yitong's day has passed, and things are much more difficult than yesterday. Every muscle in his body is still protesting loudly, but he has somewhat adapted to this intensity, and complains less than yesterday.

Early in the morning, when Brandon knocked on the door, he got up without any effort.I thought that I was so tired yesterday that I almost fell apart, and I would definitely not be able to get up today. I didn’t expect that he not only got up, but also recovered very well. It can be seen that after being exhausted, the quality of sleep last night was really good. The whole person remained in a state of deep sleep and recovered in one night.

Then, he started busy work.First, he helped Cole drive all the sheep out, and Jessica drove the cows to another piece of grass by herself; then he returned to the sheepfold, picked up the unfinished work yesterday, and followed patiently Cole is studying, laying the straw is indeed not as simple as it seems, but it is not so difficult.

Immediately afterwards, Randy followed Randy to the organic farm to harvest green manure, stirred the feed, and prepared it as an evening meal for the flock; he was just about to help Brandon clean the stables, and Brandon pulled all the horses out today , but before he could start, Brandon asked him to hand over the tools to the construction team, so he came over to run errands.

Throughout the morning, he had almost no time to rest, and his work intensity was even greater than yesterday. He didn't even have time to communicate, and he was completely immersed in his work.

But, surprisingly, the job made him feel more comfortable.

First, he does not need to communicate with others, which means that he does not need to please others, does not need to worry about whether his Asian identity will be excluded and discriminated against by whites and blacks, and does not need to carefully prepare conversation topics and digest humor , you don’t need to worry about whether your English accent will affect your daily communication, and you don’t need to worry about people laughing at “Chinese/Chinese people are like this” after something goes wrong at work.

Secondly, the fatigue of the body occupied all the thoughts of the brain, and he had no time or energy to think wildly, so he could only work hard.He had to put all his energy into his work, keep his head down in his studies, and make sure he didn't cause trouble.Interestingly, after working the whole morning, he even forgot to smoke—you know, he had to smoke at least five cigarettes in a morning in Los Angeles.

Pure physical labor, pure dedication to work, in a trance, the barrier between him and other people disappeared, they would have simple communication, but it was all about work and only about work.This kind of straightforward and boring communication, before yesterday, he would feel drowsy if he listened to it, but today, it made him feel a sense of security.

Looking at Lu Li in front of him, apart from yesterday's unpleasant meeting, they had almost no communication, not even a greeting, but now, Li Yitong miraculously felt that the distance between him and Lu Li had narrowed slightly.

In the process of work, they would always mention Lu Li inadvertently, "This is the result of Fourteen's last sheep shearing. This sheep is still rejected by other compatriots." For a while, take your time, we have time", "Everyone suspected that Shishi was a rich second generation, but last time he was sprayed with milk, we knew he was not", "There is no Shishi for lunch today, There is no Ms. L in Wuwu, so I suddenly feel that I am not used to it, oh my God", "Last fourteen said that he wanted to learn surfing, but seeing his horse riding skills, I expressed concern"...

The topic of Lu Li was always heard, and Li Yitong could tell that they and Lu Li were friends, real friends.Although they are all employees of the ranch, they are also Lu Li's friends. The sincere and simple friendship makes Li Yitong a little envious.

So, how did Lu Li do it?

What is the purpose of his father sending him to the ranch?Why did his mother insist that he must stay on the ranch for a full month?Is the ranch the focus, or Lu Li?Why are Lu Li's parents so used to life here? Could it be that they are a wealthy family and have adapted to foreign cultures long ago?

Li Yitong's mind is full of question marks, he wants to know the answer, but he doesn't know where to start.

"Ba ba", the dull sound of the horn came from the door, interrupting Li Yitong's thoughts and Lu Li's. Teddy and Hulk both stood up at the same time and looked towards the source of the sound vigilantly. Then I saw a yellow van.

The van was parked at the entrance, really conspicuous.The big light bulbs look like the anthropomorphic eyes in "My Neighbor Totoro". The fresh lemon yellow looks like freshly baked butter bread. Every corner is round and smooth, as if there are no corners at all. The cute little creatures that came out of the comics actually appeared in front of my eyes now.

Lu Li felt a little absurd. He was just imitating the scene of the Disney animation, depicting the scene of the conversation between Teddy and Hulk, and then this yellow van appeared in the next second, just like a fairy tale. Isn't this too much? Is it a coincidence?

A man wearing a black tennis shirt and black casual trousers poked his head out from the passenger seat. He looked about 30 years old, with short curly hair, a delicate watch on his left wrist, and a Wall Street look on his body. The temperament of the elite is really incompatible with that bright yellow van.

"Excuse me, is this Yunding Ranch?" The man raised his voice and asked.

Lu Li took the initiative to greet him, "Yes. How can I help you?"

The man looked around, because the villa at the entrance was still being built, so the surrounding area looked very messy, but the main house was very beautiful, especially the decorated garden, which was even more admirable. The warehouse site in the corner of sight was still in chaos.

This made the man look disgusted. He looked back at the inside of the car, said a few words in a low voice, and then saw two little girls, one big and one small, lying on the glass by the car window, looking at him curiously. around.

The man turned his head again, raised his voice and said to Lu Li, "Is the master there now?" Although he used the polite phrase of "excuse me", his tone was unlikable, the pride of giving orders and Picky, inexplicably with a hint of provocation.

Lu Li turned his head and glanced at Li Yitong, just a glance, without saying anything, but it made Li Yitong's cheeks burn slightly, and he avoided his sight.

"Why, is there anything I can do to help?" Lu Li still maintained his politeness and raised his voice to answer.

The man waved his hand impatiently, "You can't decide this matter, let the rancher come out and answer."

"You are talking to him right now." Lu Li replied without flinching.

The man frowned, "What's going on? Is this a ranch exclusively for Asians?" His gaze swept back and forth between Lu Li and Li Yitong.

Instead of getting angry, Lu Li smiled, "If you have any complaints about Asians, then I suggest you throw away your mobile phone as soon as possible. If I'm not wrong, it should be made in China."

The words that were neither humble nor overbearing, but with a sharp counterattack, and some black humor, immediately made the man a little embarrassed, "How do you talk?"

"At least I'm speaking in human language." Lu Li only spoke half of the words, and stopped abruptly, but left a large gap for the man to fill in the blanks. The scene suddenly became embarrassing.

At this moment, Brandon rode over and said impatiently, "Jack, why are you still here? Hurry up and send the toolbox to the construction site."

Brandon is completely dressed in a cowboy style, and it is also a typical Texan style. As soon as he appeared on the stage, he attracted everyone's target.

The man immediately raised his voice and said, "Hey, are you the owner of this ranch?"

Brandon frowned, and pointed at Lu Li, "He is the owner here." Then Brandon saw Lu Li spread his hands with an innocent expression on his face, and then looked at the surprised look of the man opposite, Brandon said to Lu Li, "What's the matter with him? Is he looking for trouble?"

Lu Li shrugged, "I think he thought I was here to invade America."

This is satirizing the racial/racial discrimination of the Americans. They were originally foreigners who invaded the land of the Indians, and then drove the Indians to their private plots, where the doves occupied the magpie's nest.Now, Americans not only deny their own history of aggression, but also begin to discriminate against other foreign populations, full of a sense of superiority that feels good about themselves.

Lu Li, who was born in the news, has never been stage frightened by these verbal disputes.A simple sentence made the man's face change, and he opened his mouth to swear, but Brandon kicked the horse's stomach and ran over quickly, "If you don't want to get into trouble, it's best to get in trouble now." Get out! Yunding Ranch does not welcome racial/racial discrimination!"

Li Yitong who was standing next to him was completely dumbfounded at this moment. He didn't expect Lu Li to fight back like this, nor did he expect Brandon to stand by Lu Li's side.

The atmosphere became tense for a while, and then the door of the yellow van was pulled open, and a blond lady in a lake blue dress poked her head out, wearing a beige wide-brimmed straw hat that was in the way , she pressed the straw hat with her left hand, walked down, and showed a big smile, "I'm sorry, Jamie is just tired, and his words are a little impolite. We are here on a special trip for vacation, and we also accept guests here, right?"
