Chapter 1257 (???.???)???? Can this foal be eaten?(1/2)
Since some of the somewhat annoying uncle Gotz started working in his ranch house on the 12th, he helped him expand his house until today on the 17th, Anne has been living a fulfilling life in this six days.
Every day, she gets up on time at 06:00 in the morning. Because it’s not okay to not get up, that uncle Gotz will come to the door on time every day, even if she wants to sleep for three or five minutes more!
Then, after she opened the door and asked the other party to enter the house and started a day's work, she stopped caring about the other party and went straight to the back mountain. First, she played with Perbrey, Lin or other girls, such as Mary, Carlene or Ellie, for two hours in the hot spring. After taking a bath, she wandered around the back mountain, by the lake or in the ore town, or arrived at Uncle Tsing's house for a big meal, or went to Deek's house to drink juice and grapes, or stroll by the Rose Square and the beach, etc.
Anyway, she always had a way to play and kill time in different ways, and she didn't walk back calmly until Uncle Gotz finished work on time at 17:00 pm.
These days, Anne has not been able to catch a kappa in the lake in the back mountain, nor has she summoned the so-called "Goddess" from the goddess waterfall next to the hot spring! Anne herself doesn't know why. Maybe it's those guys know something, or they know how powerful she is, Queen Anne is?
Anyway, every time she was present, even if Perbrey or Lin threw the tribute into the pool, she could not summon the guy who was said to be very magical, called "Goddess"!
Fortunately, Annie herself didn't care, because she didn't really want to see those gods and ghosts!
When facing ordinary people, she rarely uses power casually. However, if she really encounters those goddesses or kappa, would she throw a fireball over and burn the other party to ashes for a moment of disagreement? Then she would not be sure.
In this way, Anne's recent state of having money, she only knows how to eat, drink, play and not work has been going on. That kind of thing will definitely not be liked by most people in the Ore Town! However, one of them is an exception, that is Uncle Zach, a shipper who just finished recuperation two days ago and can re-enter the busy collection work!
After Anne promised that she would not ship before the summer, would not go to the back mountain to find mountain goods or catch some messy animals, nor would she not go to the sea to get some dangerous aquatic products? Zach could finally let go and be able to help the Perblis' chicken farm with peace of mind? Old Man Muqi's pastoral farm, Saibala's forging house, Deck's orchard, Dart's store and Sister Carlin's grocery house were shipped and purchased normally.
Of course? He can finally make time to send some places in the ore town, such as hospitals, logging yards, churches, etc., which are not very large, but are very important to enter and ship.
But all those things are not important? Because Anne doesn't care about those little things!
And today? Because the sun is too big? She went to the hot springs early in the morning to play with Perbley and Miss Ellie and have a nap inside for a while. When she came back early, she saw the old man Muqi walking outside the door of her house with a little pony, and didn't know what she wanted to do?
“??”
く(^_?)ゝ
"Hello? Old Muqi... Grandpa? Is there anything wrong with you when you come to my ranch?"
ヽ(゜Q.)ノ?
Seeing the other party just hunched over? Standing outside the door with his hands holding the reins of the pony behind his back? Looking inside from the door of the open house? Just standing there watching Uncle Gotz work and having no intention of leaving at all, Anne was a little curious. She couldn't help but walk over quickly and asked strangely.
“!!”
"Ah! That's great, Annie? Are you finally back?"
Hearing the sound of a familiar little girl and footsteps behind her back? After turning around and seeing that the person coming was indeed a bad little girl he was waiting for, Muqi, the farmer of the Madhya Farm, exclaimed happily.
“??”
∑(′△)?!
"Is there anything you have to do? Could it be that I came to chat with Gotz or watch him help someone renovate the house?"
☆?(o*⊙o⊙)?
That's right, Annie knows... Since the news that his ranch asked Uncle Gotz to help transform a beautiful big house was spread, the people of the ore town who had nothing to do after eating, including Thomas, a certain bad town mayor, have often come here to watch, or chat with Uncle Gotz.
Anyway, Annie doesn't like those guys who are full and can interfere with other people's work, because those guys look super boring and annoying, and it really affects Uncle Gotz's work, and one day he has to work overtime for an hour!
"ah?"
"No, no! Anne, I didn't come to visit Gotz to repair the house today. I've already visited you two days ago. I'm actually here to find you today..."
Hearing the little girl's words, Muqi quickly waved his hand and explained.
"Is that true?"
(゜-゜)
"So, Grandpa Muqi, what's the matter with you looking for someone? You can tell me now!"
ヽ(⌒▽⌒)?
When Annie heard that the other party was not here to watch the fun, she couldn't help but feel a little curious.
She really wanted to hear it. What can the old man who looks like this look like he is so unfunny? After all, Annie knows that she is not familiar with the other person and has basically no interaction on weekdays. But now the other person suddenly looks for her, and the matter is obviously very strange.
"Well……"
"So, Annie...I'm here to find you today, actually I want to ask you for a favor..."
As he said that, Muqi used a little force in his hand and pulled the little foal next to him, which had been put on a saddle and reins, and pulled the little foal, which was a little confused and slightly restless, to Anne.
"ah!!"
!?(?''??)?
A pony?
"I know! Grandpa Muqi, you want to ask someone to buy this little foal for you and eat it, right?!"
o(???)o
If that is the case, Annie said that the other party had found the right person! Because, she was very good at eating!
In the past, she had eaten a certain Elf King's God Horse or something, but now, eating a foal or something is not a big problem for her. Who makes it look so cute, tender, and delicious?
If you add more cumin, star anise, bay leaves and cinnamon at that time, and add some hot spring water to simmer together on low heat, it will definitely be very fragrant and delicious, right?
(?′?﹃?`?)
Great!
Just thinking, Annie couldn't control her drooling.
(…)
(¬?¬.)
“!!”
"No! It's definitely not what you said!!"
Hearing the other party say that and seeing that the other party really wants to come and grab the reins, Muqi was so scared that he quickly pulled the foal, which was very humane and trembling by the foraging breath of an evil little girl, back and protected him.
"Anne!"
"It's not the sodium salt you thought, you misunderstood me!!"
"I... I actually want to ask you to take care of it. I know, you are very idle recently, have not gone to farm, have not prepared mountain goods, and have not gone to fish..."
"so……"
"That's why I want to ask you to help take care of it! That's right, that's it!"
In short, the fact is that, it is just that Muqi thinks that the little girl in front of him is too idle and knows that she is idle all day long in the ore town. That is not good, and it is easy to set a very bad example and "role model" for his granddaughter Mei or other children in the town?
So, while his foal was a little bigger and could be weaned, he hurriedly sent it, intending to let a little bit of serious work be done by a little bit?
“…”
"It has been a little listless lately, and I am the only old man in our pastoral ranch. I have to take care of so many cows and sheep every day. I really don't have the energy to take care of it alone every day..."
"So, Anne, can you help me take care of it for a while until it grows up?"
"Anyway, please help me, an old man with a little bit of awesome legs! And, I calculated that it should be able to carry you right now... So I thought about it for a few days and felt that no one is more suitable for taking care of it than you."
Muqi, who was afraid that the other party would refuse, quickly explained why he brought the foal here and urgently wanted to ask the little girl to help take care of her. At the same time, he also explained the reasons while begging hard as if he was pitiful.
“…”
=????('ヮ'=????)
"that……"
(?~?)
"Okay OK! Well... Anyway, the stables are there and they are still empty. If you think it's appropriate and want to give it to them, then take it over..."
??(′??)???
Originally, Annie didn't want to accept that she didn't tell the truth, but she seemed to be pitiful when she saw her, and there was a horse in the ranch that seemed to be nice to play with. Therefore, after a little bit of trouble, Annie finally nodded gently, which was considered as a matter of fact.
“!!”
‘Oh! That’s great, it’s great that you can promise!’
"By the way!"
"Anne, it hasn't been named yet. You can give it a name yourself later, and remember to take care of it every day."
"In fact, raising a horse is not as difficult as you think. As long as you remember to take care of it every day, talk to it, brush your body, or take it out for a walk for two rounds."
As if she was afraid that Annie would suddenly repent, while Old Muqi turned around and said excitedly, she led the foal to the stable on the other side of the gate of Annie's ranch. Where did she look like an old man with a hunchback just now?
“…”
(lll¬▽¬)
It is possible to take it out for a walk twice when you are bored, but it is not possible to talk to the other party or brush your body. Unless you have to discuss with it how to eat it or prepare to put it into the pot, Queen Anne would definitely not talk to the little pony or take a bath!
Because of talking or something, it is enough for her to have her terror, Tibers, to avoid such a stupid little foal!

"I've done it..."
"Anne!"
