Chapter 668 Practicing English
After doing a few tasks, Jian Heng heard a knock on the door.
"Come in!"
Jian Heng said something towards the door.
As soon as the door opened, Mai Mai stuck his head in, holding the door frame with one hand and the doorknob with the other hand, maintaining a leaning forward posture, and said to Jian Heng with a slightly coquettish tone: "Hey, Masseuse, it's time!"
As soon as Jian Heng knew that the two of them were going to bed, he wanted to relax before going to bed, so he started to talk to his little friend who was doing the task with him just now, then quit the game and turned off the computer.
Walking to the door, he saw that there was no one in the aisle. Suddenly, Jian Heng picked up the wheat, carried it on his shoulders, and walked towards the house.
Wheat didn't panic like ordinary women, instead she giggled happily, and then patted Jian Heng's back like playing a drum.
Arriving at the massage room, Jian Heng put Mai Mai on the massage bed, and took off her clothes casually. Of course, there were some jokes between husband and wife.
After fighting for about five minutes, it was considered as the official massage. Waiting for Barley to come in from the door, Mai just started to press.
After spending an hour in the massage room, the three of them took a shower again and returned to the room.
At this time, both the adults and the children have already gone to bed, and the whole room is officially quiet now.
After seven or eight hours of silence, the room became lively again.
Jian Heng rode black beans, barley and wheat for a circle. When they returned home, Sun Xiuying had already prepared breakfast. Simple vegetable porridge served with delicious big meat buns. If the meat buns were not to your taste, there are Beef and vegetable buns.
After washing her hands and just sitting on the edge of the table, Sun Xiuying said to Jian Heng: "Don't run around in the morning, take the children to the circus. I heard Damai and Wheat said that there will be a new show today."
"What new show?"
Jian Heng became a little curious, thinking that he didn't know about the new show in town, so how did the two of them know.
Jian Heng thought that barley and wheat were more closed than him, but in fact Jian Heng was the most closed person in the whole ranch. If he didn’t tell him, he wouldn’t know how many new stores have opened in the town now, and a bottle of beer has increased by one dollar .
Wheat said: "For the new horse dance show, a special team is invited. Today is just the time for the performance. We have classes in the morning, or we will take the children there."
"Dancing horse?" Jian Heng was a little puzzled. Aren't horses just for riding? Why are there dancing horses?
When it comes to horse dancing, Jian Heng can't help but think of dragon dance, lion dance and so on. Immediately, he adjusted the picture in his mind to several people, you are holding the horse's front leg, and I am holding the horse's hind leg, playing over and over again. Several images flashed by, Jian Heng thinks this scene is too embarrassing. Guan Jian is a horse or a living creature. After struggling like this, it would weigh a few hundred catties at a young age. It is impossible to dance with four or five people like this, let alone It can't be that everyone in the circus is a strong man with great strength.
To have such a skill, the man would have already participated in the Hercules competition, who would go to the circus to dance what kind of horse.
"What are you thinking?" Seeing that Jian Heng was distracted while talking to him, Mai Mai immediately became unhappy, and asked Jian Hengfa while knocking on the table.
Mai Mai’s sound immediately pulled Jian Heng’s thoughts back: “I didn’t think about it, dancing horses, I know, I’ll go when the show starts, ten o’clock in the morning or eleven o’clock in the morning?”
According to the working nature of Montana people, it is normal to start work at eleven o'clock, and ten o'clock is regarded as a hard-working shopkeeper, and most of them are a generation of shopkeepers.
"The first show will be at 9:30 in the morning." Damai said, "You can buy tickets after you have finished your meal. Don't have any tickets when the time comes. It would be bad if you took the four children outside to freeze for a few hours." ".
"Is there such a thing as not being able to buy a ticket?" Jian Heng couldn't believe it.
Damai said: "There are only four performances in total. After the performances, the circus will go to California to perform. When you go, you can also book two afternoon tickets for me and Xiaomai. I heard that their performances are very good. ".
"OK, OK!"
Jian Heng agreed without hesitation.
After finishing his meal like this, Jian Heng got into the car and went directly to the town. When he arrived at the southwest end of the town, he found that there were three or four tents in the middle of the ten-acre public pasture, and two of them were very big. Kind of like a small theater. In addition to the two big tents, there are about 20 small tents, all of which sell some food and drink, as well as some small tourist souvenirs.
When I was at home, Jian Heng felt that it was too early to come out at this time, but now it seems that this is not the case at all, just at this point, before nine o'clock, I can already see groups of small merchants starting to do business, everyone Almost all of them are stocking up, and everyone is very busy.
Walking to the door of the tent of the Dancing Horse Circus, Jian Heng asked a 40-year-old white man at the door: "Excuse me, where can I buy the ticket?"
The white man enthusiastically pointed at a small semi-open tent next to him. At this time, three or two people were already queuing up next to the small tent.
Jian Heng thanked him, and then walked to the end of the line. Jian Heng knew two or three people in the line, and they were all cowboys working on nearby ranches.
"Why are you so early?" Jian Heng asked after greeting him.
As soon as the words were spoken, the cowboy at the front said to the aunt in her thirties who sold the tickets: "Forty tickets, half past nine."
Jian Hengxin said: I'll go!
"We lined up to buy tickets for the guests of the ranch, you came to see it too?"
"Well, a few kids want to come and watch the horse dance, so I'll buy some tickets," Jian Heng said.
"It's hard to buy tickets now, the afternoon tickets are sold out, and there are only a few scattered seats!"
"What?" Jian Heng couldn't believe his ears a little bit. When will this small town be scrambling for tickets to watch a circus!
Jian Heng had just finished being amazed when he heard the second cowboy say, "Sixty-eight, at 9:30 in the morning!"
"Did I say you all bought it this way?" Jian Heng couldn't sit still when he heard that, if he continued to buy it like they did, he might have nothing for such a big tent by his turn.
The cowboy who bought the ticket said: "I can't help it, what should we do with so many guests in our ranch!"
To be honest, the person smiled, took out a credit card from his pocket, swiped it, and took away the folded tickets.
"I'm sorry, I still have more than forty cards!" The cowboy in front of Jian Heng said with a smile.
When Jian Heng heard this, he immediately asked the 30-year-old aunt who sold the tickets: "Is there any ticket after he finished buying?"
Americans are terrible at arithmetic. After more than 40 tickets were issued, he said to Jian Heng: "There are still ten tickets, all of which are in the last row."
"Seven tickets! By the way, do you still have the tickets for the afternoon?" Jian Heng asked while taking out his card.
"No, there is no ticket for the afternoon, and the tickets for the afternoon were sold out yesterday"
So Jian Heng had no choice but to take seven tickets back home, and told Barley and Wheat about the misfortune.
"Why don't you two go and see, I'll go to class for you this morning" Jian Heng said his solution.
"Forget it, you can't replace today's class, today we will be in Shujia," Damai said.
Wheat said: "Let's take a look when we have time to go to California to play."
Jian Heng thought it would be like this, so he waited until the time was almost up, so he drove the car directly, took his four children, mother, and sister to the circus.
Arrived at the place, Jian Heng couldn't believe his eyes, good guy! It was like a fair in the countryside in the past, rubbing shoulders together. When did Montana have such a scene?
"It's so lively"
The four children shouted happily after getting out of the car.
"Hello, you are also a tourist, the whole family is here?"
Jian Heng has not yet recovered from the exclamation. He heard someone greet him, and turned his head to find a middle-aged couple with a boy about eight or nine years old smiling at him.
"No, we are not tourist, we live near here"
"Wow! I really didn't expect it, no wonder the children's English is so good."
After finishing speaking, the woman pushed her child: "Xiaoyang, go and practice English with your brothers and sisters. If you don't open your mouth, you can't speak the language well."
A few black lines appeared on Jian Heng's forehead when he heard it. He never thought that he would encounter such a thing again.
"Sorry, we're here to see the dancing horses," Jian Heng said politely.
Jian Heng's meaning is very clear, I am here to watch the circus, and I have no obligation to accompany your children to practice English.
"Exactly, we are also watching the horse dance, together, together!"
The woman's words made Jian Heng even more embarrassed.
