The farm was primarily dedicated to the large-scale breeding of deer, while Moose was considered a rare delicacy in the country. If he could manage to breed them in large numbers, after obtaining the necessary permits and certifications, he should be able to sell them for a good price.
Having recently come into some wealth, he approached Lekshev and enclosed both his pasture and the nearby forest. The area was mainly coniferous forest interspersed with streams, making it an ideal habitat for Moose, and there was no shortage of wildlife there.
Additionally, a large section of pasture near the forest had been cleared to make way for fast-growing aquatic plants, and numerous fish fry had been introduced into the water. In just a couple of years, this would become a prime fishing pond.
"Wow, it's so big!"
When Zhuo Ya and Irina finished their high school years and arrived at the farm, they found Moose leisurely grazing by the pond. Xiao Xiao Bai had grown quickly; standing up, its shoulders were nearly as high as Irina's, its snow-white coat looking stunning.
"Do you like it? I specially caught it for you. You can ride it when you go out to play in winter."
"Yes, I love it!"
Irina happily hugged Xu Li's sturdy waist. "Uncle, you're so nice!"
"Hehe, go ahead and give it a try."
Xu Li bent down and lifted Irina onto Xiao Xiao Bai's back. The little girl immediately grabbed the reins. Xiao Xiao Bai glanced at Xu Li, saw him nod, and slowly walked along the edge of the pond. The girl felt thrilled and giggled joyfully.
Zhuo Ya took an ice cream from the fridge, plopped down on the sofa with her phone, and propped her feet on Da Huang's back while shaking them. A notification caught her attention; she clicked on it and nearly burst out laughing.
In the video, Lao Si was covered in mud, riding a large water buffalo with his legs spread wide and a look of panic on his face as the buffalo ran off with a trembling voice effect: "Help! Help!"
Beside him, Old Five was laughing so hard he could hardly breathe. Just as he was reveling in Lao Si's misfortune, a large black pig suddenly dashed between his legs, causing Old Five to instinctively clamp his legs together.
"Help!"
The pig carried a startled Old Five away towards the distant rice fields while seven or eight staff members chased after them. An elderly man with a thin whip jumped around behind them shouting: "Hei Niu! My Hei Niu! What have I done?"
"Life in Simplicity," Season One, airing tomorrow night at eight on Toilet Channel!
"Tomorrow? That's just tomorrow night!"
Zhuo Ya quickly finished her ice cream and began playing the trending game Snake. By evening, Xu Li returned home carrying a processed sheep. He immediately skewered pieces of meat while Irina stopped playing games to help him wash vegetables.
By the time Anna and Eva finished their mahjong game, a barbecue grill had already been set up in the yard. The three were grilling lamb skewers and other dishes when the sisters happily sat at a small table and accepted cold beers handed to them by their daughters.
"Mom! Lao Si and Old Five participated in a variety show that's airing tomorrow night."
Zhuo Ya took a skewer from Old Parent and took a bite. "Hehe! One was riding a cow while the other rode a pig; I almost died laughing!"
As she spoke, she opened the video notification again and passed it to Anna beside her. Anna watched it for a moment before slapping her thigh in laughter. Eva took it next to watch again and couldn't stop giggling either. Xu Li placed a large handful of skewers onto a plate before continuing to arrange marinated chicken wings, beef skewers, and perfectly fatty pork belly on the grill while brushing on seasoning.
"Hey Uncle! Auntie! We arrived just in time!"
Zhukov and Larryf, along with several others, dragged boxes of beer into the yard, followed by a dozen Little Ones, each bringing their own tables and chairs. They all turned to Xu Li with sweet smiles and said, "Village Chief Grandpa, we want to eat barbecue too!"
Xu Li's lips curled into a smile as he shot a glare at a few of the Xiao Nianqing before turning and heading to the kitchen to fetch the meat.
