Yunding Ranch

Chapter 241
Jamie slept soundly last night.

He thought he would not adapt to the environment of the tent, but he slept until dawn without a dream.I don't know if it's because he was too tired physically and mentally after the long journey; or because he sweated three or four times in the hot pot last night, and then took a hot bath to relax completely, but it has been nearly half a year for him For the first time in a long time, I slept so deeply and had a good night's sleep.

Recalling my embarrassment last night in my mind, the clothes were completely soaked, and the original color could hardly be seen; the mouth was red, and the lips and eyes were red and swollen, as if being beaten by others; the hair was soaked in sweat , sloppy and messy sticking to the forehead, some people believe that they haven't washed their hair for a month...

Such an appearance is impossible in New York. He doesn't even remember when was the last time he was in such a mess, university?When did you join a fraternity?It's been... ten years? 12 years? 15 years?Memory has become so blurred.

But even when it was a fraternity, the obsession of profit first, the shame of suffering from pranks, those mixed emotions occupied the head, and that was the memory that people wanted to delete.It was different last night, he laughed heartily and heartily, he didn't mind his embarrassment at all, instead he enjoyed it.

God, if his face is seen by his colleagues and competitors on Wall Street, he will be a laughingstock for the next year.However, the first reaction in his mind is not to delete all potential evidence, but to think carefully about the meal last night.

The tongue is still hot and painful, the lips don't seem to be swollen, and even the fingertips can feel the tingling texture.He can find a hundred reasons to complain about yesterday's dinner; but he doesn't need any reason, he just wants to try again.

"Is this a poppy seed?"

He pointed to the small black particles last night and asked that this was the only explanation in his mind. After he finished speaking, he realized that this sentence was offensive and even contained the possibility of discrimination. He quickly explained to, "I don't have a problem with smoking/drugs, in fact, I myself... I mean, I'm just curious about what it is."

Then, he saw everyone roaring with laughter, but no one explained.In the end, Lu Li picked up two small black pellets and handed them to him, "You will know after a taste. New Yorkers always say that when we are not sure, we should experience it for ourselves, don't we? Otherwise, That will always be a lie."

He tried.

That scene, that taste, is unbearable to look back on.

"Haha." Thinking of his ugliness, Jamie couldn't help laughing.

At that moment, the pressure of life, the burden of work, the decadence of the economy, the hustle and bustle of New York, the fierce competition of peers, the secret stumbling of opponents...all are no longer important, what is important is that he is truly alive, Enjoying the joy of life, he, Alison, Taylor, Amber, and Carmen.

He kind of misses those days.

But what about the others?
Only then did Jamie realize that he was the only one in the tent, and Alison was not there.He unzipped the tent and searched in the two tents next to him. Taylor was not there, and neither were Amber and Carmen.So, what the hell is going on here?

"Hey, good morning, slob, you're up." A cheery voice called from behind, and before he could turn around, Carmen's refreshing voice came over, "Daddy, Daddy, you missed the ponies! Biscuit, and ice cream. We went to visit the two little guys together just now, and Biscuit can stand up, and Ice Cream has also recovered, but he looks a little envious, envious that Biscuit can walk."

Carmen rushed into Jamie's arms like a whirlwind.

Jamie touched Carmen's head, raised his head, cast a puzzled look, and Alison explained with a smile, "Amber and Carmen delivered two foals yesterday, and we just went to visit the two little ones. "

A simple sentence sums up the situation.Jamie showed a look of surprise, "Wow, two little girls in our family have achieved great things! This is really amazing, isn't it?" Jamie looked at Alison again, with incredible doubts on his face: Delivering foals?What happened yesterday afternoon?
There was a bustling sound coming from behind. Randy and Tony put on special equipment and walked down with a big cowboy hat. Behind them were Jessica, Cole and Li Yitong. Walking out one after another, the group walked towards the beech forest while talking and laughing.

The two groups looked at each other, Randy jumped twice excitedly, waved his hands, greeted each other, and then moved on with the others.

Jamie also waved his hand. He just took it for granted that the ranch was about to start another day of work, although the overalls looked a bit strange—everyone was tightly wrapped, with long sleeves, trousers and a long tube. Boots, this looks really absurd, even ridiculous, on a hot July day.

"Let's go, girls, if you don't hurry up, we're going to be late." Alison greeted, and Jamie was even more confused, casting a puzzled look. Alison explained, "Today It's the day of harvesting the lavender fields in the ranch, we plan to go there and experience it together, the girls are looking forward to it, how about you?"

"Experience?" Jamie didn't understand the situation, but Carmen and Amber had already trotted towards the main house, and Taylor followed behind to catch up, and the cheerful laughter scattered all over the ground under the sun.

"Yes, let's join the labor together and help them harvest lavender." Alison said with a smile, "I'm going back to change my clothes first. If you want to go there together, you'd better hurry up. You must start before ten o'clock Work, I heard, it will last all day." After finishing speaking, Alison trotted all the way to catch up with the children without waiting for Jamie's response.

Jamie stood there, completely dumbfounded—what's the situation?
Looking down at his watch, Jamie realized that it was only early nine o'clock, and he woke up so early on a non-working day.According to his previous habits, he had to sleep at least until eleven o'clock, but even if he slept until noon, he still felt that he couldn't sleep enough, but today he didn't feel tired at all.

What's even more incredible is that Alison and the others had already visited the pony and came back, so what time did they get up?
Only then did Jamie realize that he hadn't washed, so he walked quickly towards the main house.Pushing open the room, I saw Lu Li who was busy inside, "Good morning." Lu Li raised his head and saw Jamie, and greeted him, "Uh, breakfast is on the table, but there are no more scrambled eggs, only fried eggs. Eggs. I can scramble two for you right now if you want."

Jamie noticed that Lu Li was already washing the dishes, "No, just fry the eggs." He shook his head and looked around, "Where are the others? I mean, where are your parents?"

"They went to the sheep pen to help out. There is a lot of work today and there are not enough people." Lu Li explained with a smile that Brandon was in charge of the daily work today, and Song Lingyi and Lu Huaijin went to help.If it's still not enough, Brandon will call Chloe and Robert again. "I need to go now too."

Lu Li put all the bowls and chopsticks in his hand into the disinfection cabinet, "After breakfast, you can just put the dishes in the sink. Otherwise, you can do what you want."

Lu Li wiped his hands, walked towards the door of the main house, and passed Jamie.

Jamie hesitated for a moment, and then shouted, "Fourteen." This made Lu Li stop, but Jamie couldn't help being a little embarrassed, he hesitated for a moment, and then he said, "Sorry, please forgive my rudeness yesterday. "

Excuse?He can find countless excuses to justify himself, and this is what he is best at-people on Wall Street are masters of lying.However, when the words reached here, Jamie did not continue, because he knew that what he needed was not an excuse, but an apology.

Lu Li was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile, "I accept your apology." Then, Lu Li didn't stop any longer, and walked out of the room quickly.

Jamie stood there, thought for a while, and couldn't help but smile, and his mood seemed to become a little more relaxed.

"Fourteen! Fourteen! Wait for me!" Immediately there was a rush of shouts from upstairs, and then Amber walked down quickly, followed by Carmen, and Taylor, followed by Alison An anxious voice said, "Don't worry, Fourteen will wait for us. You three, wait for me, wait for me!"

"Dad!" An Bo ran over quickly, greeted him with a smile, and then ran out like a gust of wind.This made Jamie a little dazed—is this the eldest daughter he knew?So extroverted, so vivacious, so breezy, this...

"Amber! Fourteen!" Carmen ran over quickly, but her pace was not fast enough to keep up.Taylor followed up from behind, hugged Carmen, and then nodded to Jamie, "Don't worry, the pasture is huge, but the lavender fields won't run away, we can catch up..."

"But, but Tony and the others have already started working, and I want to go there quickly!" Carmen said out of breath, and the voice with a faint milk smell gradually disappeared outside the door of the house.

Jamie stood where he was, watching the backs of the children leaving, and actually didn't want to leave.God knows what he hates most when he's at work is talking to children because their shouting gives him a headache, it's Voldemort's curse.

"Breakfast was cooked by Fourteen himself." Alison's voice came from behind, "I can tell you that the taste is very delicious, much better than my craftsmanship. God, I'm so curious, Ling Yi How to educate children." Alison teased with a smile, printed a kiss on Jamie's cheek, and then quickly followed, "Hey, hey, children, don't forget me!"

Jamie stood at the door like this, saw the children meeting with Renly, and then Alison, a group of people laughing and walking towards the beech forest, their figures disappeared bit by bit into the golden emerald green, and then he Turning around, looking at the table full of breakfast in the dining room, walked over.
