Chapter 969 The first love of the school grass who took a check and went abroad (7)
OK! Then go up.
But he didn't get the price because she provided all kinds of wild vegetables to the table at home, but because the price of the wool she sheared was a few yuan higher than that of old George.
The extra money earned should be returned to her through salary.
So, when the salary was paid this month, Xu Yin found that the envelope containing the money was more bulging than before.
Mrs. Hunter winked at her, she knew.
Going back to my small private room, I opened the envelope, and saw the salary slip attached to the banknote at a glance. Sure enough, the salary has increased.
Xu Yin frowned and smiled, her intuition was correct—the Hunter family is friendly and lovely.
Mrs. Hunter not only asked her husband to raise Xu Yin’s wages, but also asked the cook to make honey water for Xu Yin every day, and filled the jug for her to drink.
A farmer in Cook Town raised bees in the mountains. The nectar he collected was all natural, and the taste was much better than honey from later generations.
Xu Yin plans to go to the farmer to buy some when there is a food party in the town, stock up a few cans, and save it for later drinking.
On this day, she carried a bamboo basket for picking wild vegetables, a satchel on her back, and prepared to drive sheep to graze as usual with honey water, goat milk cakes, and cheese pastries. The postman in the town delivered a letter.
Mrs. Hunter took it apart and looked at it for a few times, then smiled and called her:
"Sean, it's from Oliva. He and Lucas have been panning for gold in West Bay for a month. Recently, I heard that Kawarau Canyon has built a world-class bungee jumping center, which will open at the end of the month. I'm worried that no one will dare to jump. The officials even issued a $10,000 bounty – bungee jumpers who jump on the opening day and do a few stretches during the bungee jump can receive this bounty, and both he and Lucas intend to sign up.”
After reading the contents of the letter, Mrs. Hunt sighed: "These two children are so courageous! I feel terrified just hearing his description in the letter. It seems that this bungee jumping is something that only young people dare to do. Sean, do you think Want to see them bungee jumping? By the way, visit the canyon, Kawarau Canyon is quite beautiful in summer. If you want to go, I will ask Hunter to book a bus ticket for you when he goes to town."
Xu Yin heard the words and was eager to try:
Look at the two strong guys bungee jumping?
What's the point of that!
Either don’t go, if you go, jump once by yourself.
10,000 New Zealand dollars!
It's just that she left, who will take care of the flock?
"If you want to go, don't worry, there's still Old George. At this time of the year, he is the one who grazes." Mrs. Hunt laughed heartily, "After you came, he felt a lot more relaxed. Let him herd the sheep for a few days. , can you not be happy?"
Old George: "..."
It's not up to the little old man whether he wants to be happy or not.
However, Mrs. Hunter's words are true. If Sean was not recruited at the beginning, he would definitely not be as relaxed as he is now.
Therefore, Old George agreed very readily: "Go, go! Take advantage of the good summer weather and go to the canyon to play for a few days. The sheep have me! When you are not here, these are my jobs. I am not bragging , old man, I have spared more sheep than you have eaten, and you are actually worried that I can't deal with this group of guys who like to stick their hooves?"
Xu Yin laughed: "Thank you! I'll bring you some southern specialties then."
"Speaking of southern specialties, if it's convenient, please help me bring some tobacco leaves."
Xu Yin readily agreed.
Since she came here, the farthest place she has been to is Christchurch. She is still a little excited when she thinks of traveling far and seeing different scenery from this place.
Even though I have been to New Zealand when I traveled around the world with Comrade Xiaojin, and lived in many famous tourist towns, it is still 1988, so it is different.
Mrs. Hunter is very thoughtful. Although Sean is strong, he can easily lift a sheep weighing two to three hundred catties with one hand, and he can knock down several burly men by himself, but he is a girl after all. Cook It takes more than nine hours by car from the town to Queenstown, and it is inevitable that one person will be lonely.
So, she helped Xu Yin make an appointment with two companions—
One is the youngest son of the mayor’s family, Wei Lai. He is two years younger than Xu Yin, but he is 1.8 meters tall like his father. He is a lively and cheerful young man;
The other one is Ira, the eldest granddaughter of William Old, who is the same age as Willai. She usually lives in Christchurch with her parents and comes to the ranch for summer vacation.
Both want to go to bungee jumping.
In the past, I only heard that adventurers would use an elastic rope to jump from a high altitude. Such a dangerous challenge, now there is a platform in South Island where you can experience it for a fee.
I dare not let them dance by themselves, but I really want to see how others dance.
The mayor and old William are also very supportive of this.
When they were young, they went out to practice at the age of fourteen or fifteen. Today's children, who have not been out of the city at the age of sixteen or seventeen, have become flowers in the greenhouse. It is time for them to go out to broaden their horizons and gain insights.
After the agreement was made, Mr. Hunter bought three long-distance bus tickets to Queenstown in the south when he went to the town to send a letter.
The distance between Cooktown and Queenstown is 400 kilometers. Because some road conditions are not very good, it takes more than nine hours to drive. That is to say, it starts in the morning and arrives in the evening.
Ask her to say that it is much more convenient to go by motorcycle than by car.
But Mrs. Hunter helped her make an appointment with a friend, so she didn't refuse.
The three of them set off together.
Mrs. Hunter stuffed a lot of food into Xu Yin's schoolbag.
The long-distance bus will refuel and rest in Kelin Town, after all, the driver also needs to eat.
But the food at the gas station is more expensive. Mrs. Hunter was worried that she would not be willing to buy it, so she asked the cook to bake some goat milk cakes, cheese cakes, and milk-flavored steamed buns that Xu Yin helped improve.
The drinker filled her with two kettles: a pot of honey water and a pot of dandelion tea.
Apple also stuffed several.
Mrs. Hunter firmly believes in the proverb "an apple a day keeps the doctor away", and all apple trees are planted in front of her house.
It's apple harvest season, and these days, ranchers get one every day. Sometimes Xu Yin is divided into two. Mrs. Hunter always said that she was too thin and needed to make up more.
It's the same when I come out this time. If the schoolbag doesn't have so much space, I want to stuff more for her.
Wei Lai has a lively personality. As soon as he got in the car, he opened his schoolbag and showed Xu Yin the food his mother had prepared for him when he got into the car:
"Salmon roe cheese rolls, a total of three baked, one for each of us at noon. If not enough, there will be ham slices sandwiched with oatmeal bread."
Xu Yin has tasted the local ham, which is not as fragrant as Jinhua ham, but it has its own unique flavor, and it is usually eaten raw, cut into thin slices, and eaten with side dishes such as lettuce and guacamole. The taste is quite good of.
But this is also because the conditions of the mayor's house are relatively good, and most people only change a little bit during the holidays.
Ira also carried a heavy bag of food, including dried mutton, goat milk cake, **** yogurt cake, and a lot of fruit.
Each person’s schoolbag takes up more than half of the space for food alone.
Fortunately, summer clothes are relatively thin, otherwise they wouldn’t fit.
The three of them looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
It feels like a primary school student going on a spring outing.
