His father-in-law's farm was not in the cow market. It was in the west of the cow market, near a small town called the grassland.
It was similar to the movies. The small town did not have tall buildings like the cities. Most of the buildings were made of wood. However, even though it was a small town, it had all kinds of facilities. There was also a small hospital. There were even two modern supermarkets!
These supermarkets did not only serve the residents of the small town. The people from the surrounding farms would also drive their pickup trucks here to make purchases! There were no vegetable markets in America. Food, daily necessities, farm tools, and farming machinery could all be bought in the large supermarkets!
"Hey, Mo!" Mo Henian drove the jeep through the town. A middle-aged man dressed like a cowboy recognized him. He put his hands in his mouth and whistled loudly to greet him.
"Hey, Barea, why are you here?" Mo Henian nodded to the man and slowed down the car. "I'm here to meet my son-in-law. It's his first time here!"
Murphy turned to Yang Yi when she heard the commotion. "That is Uncle Barea. He is the owner of the farm next door. He is Latino. I heard that his ancestors came here 400 years ago."
"Your son-in-law? Who is he? "That Barea laughed heartily at Mo Henian.
"Hello!" Yang Yi rolled down the car window and greeted him. "Uncle Barea, my name is Yang Yi. You can call me Leon."
"Not bad, not bad. You are a handsome young man!" Barea sat on the back of the horse and gave Yang Yi a thumbs up.
"Gracias!" Yang Yi smiled.
"Eh, you can speak Spanish?" Barea was surprised.
Yang Yi changed to Spanish and said, "Yes, I learned a little in the past."
He was being humble. This language was similar to Japanese. Yang Yi was proficient in it. Not only could he speak and listen, he could also write some simple articles in Spanish.
The admiration in Barea's eyes for Yang Yi became even stronger. He also asked in Spanish, "Where are Mo Fei and Xiao Xixi? Are they back? "
"We're back with our second child," Yang Yi said with a smile.
Murphy couldn't understand Spanish, but she still heard her name. So she stuck her head out beside Yang Yi and greeted him with a smile. "Hello, Uncle Barea!"
"Murphy, long time no see! Your husband told me that you have a second child? " Barea switched back to English. With a smile, he squeezed the horse's belly and let the horse slow down to get closer to the jeep.
…
A small farming town had its own advantages. There were not many people in Big Grassland Town. Especially the people in the farm, almost all of them knew each other. Along the way, Yang Yi was constantly greeted by Mo Henian. Only then did Yang Yi realize his father-in-law's "status" here!
However, what made Yang Yi even happier was Mo Henian's attitude towards him!
Although Mo Henian still spoke bluntly to him, he still actively introduced him to his friends. It could be seen that Mo Henian still admired him. It was just that Mo Henian didn't want to express it!
Soon, the jeep arrived at Mo Henian's farm. Yang Yi held Xi Xi's hand and got off the jeep. They were warmly welcomed.
The nanny, the cook, and a group of cowboys happily surrounded them, cheering and singing songs to welcome them! There was also a cowboy playing the guitar. Although the standard of the guitar wasn't high, the coquettish posture made people unable to hold back their laughter.
"Welcome, young master!" After singing, the Chinese cook took the lead and shouted.
A group of white and black cowboys laughed and shouted with a strange accent in Chinese, "Guangyingude!"
What a group of passionate people! Yang Yi was infected by their enthusiasm. When they were singing, he pulled Xi Xi and joined them in their strange dance.
"Thank you, thank you!" Yang Yi cupped his hands and smiled. "You can call me Leon. You don't have to speak Chinese. I can communicate in English."
Murphy joined in with Tong Tong. When the nanny, cook, and other females saw Tong Tong, they surrounded her lovingly and asked her all sorts of questions.
"Little Xi Xi, do you still remember me?" an old cowboy asked Xi Xi with a smile.
They hadn't seen each other for three years. If it were other children, they would have already forgotten everything that happened three years ago! But even if Xi Xi still remembered, she still felt very unfamiliar. The little girl hid behind her father's legs in embarrassment. She wasn't very sure and said weakly, "Are you Grandpa Ford?"
"You really remember? What about me? Do you still remember me? "a black guy who was as tall as a bamboo pole asked loudly. Although he was tall, he was actually only a sixteen-year-old boy. In the past two years, he had only grown taller but not fatter.
This time, Xi Xi couldn't recognize him! The little girl stood there awkwardly, not knowing what to do.
"I'm Greg!" the black guy said anxiously.
The few black cowboys beside him all laughed. "Greg, you're too ugly. Who can recognize you?"
"Big Brother Greg!" Xi Xi remembered. This time, she finally remembered the big brother who used to play with her. But she still looked at her father awkwardly. "But Big Brother Greg isn't this tall."
"I'm growing taller!" Greg shouted. "Little Xi Xi, you've grown a lot taller too!"
"Alright, alright. Greg, have you helped me feed the horse?" Mo Henian's heart ached for his granddaughter who was tired from the journey, so he stood up and glared at Greg who was a little too mischievous.
"Didn't you say we can have a day off today?" Greg shrunk his neck. Although he was still stubborn, he only said that resentfully and turned to run away. "Little Xi Xi, I'll come and play with you later!"
Ford was the leader of the cowboys, and he also called for the cowboys to go back to work.
Yang Yi and the others could finally enjoy a moment of free time and admire Mo Henian's residence.
"F * ck!"
As soon as he walked in, Yang Yi was stunned. He couldn't help but exclaim in his heart. At this moment, he felt as if he had returned to Gusu. The huge courtyard was designed like a garden, and it felt as if Mo Henian had moved a garden from Gusu over.
The flowing water, small bridge, stone carvings, window carvings, and the house with white walls and black tiles gave people a retro feeling!
Compared to his father-in-law's house, his own villa and courtyard were simply slums!
"Who was hired to design this house? It's the work of a master! "Yang Yi couldn't help but exclaim.
He didn't know that he had inadvertently flattered his father-in-law. Mo Henian, who was walking in front, slightly raised the corner of his mouth, and then curled his lips. This was a kind of expression that showed that he was proud, but he didn't want others to know that he was proud!
"It was my PaPa who designed it!" Murphy smiled and said, "He used to be an architect, but later changed his profession."
Inside, seeing the modern interior decoration and thinking about the classical architecture and garden design outside, Yang Yi's admiration for Mo Henian was really like a torrential river …
"You guys go to the room to tidy up, and come down to eat after changing your clothes." Zhou Mengyu smiled and arranged for them, "Yang Yi, when you come to our place, you don't have to think about cooking. We have people who specialize in cooking. Come over and have a good vacation with Murphy. "
"Okay, I'll listen to your arrangements." Yang Yi nodded.
"See, my Mom is good to you, right?" Murphy bumped Yang Yi's shoulder and giggled.
When Mo Henian saw this, he said unhappily, "What vacation? Yang Yi, when you're free, come work with me and herd the cows. You've always lived in the city, and now you should experience the life of an American farmer! "
