Little Life on An American Ranch Chapter 249

  Chapter 249 Apprentice's Enlightenment

   After clicking a few acupoints that were sideways and could no longer be sidelined, old man Yao couldn't help nodding and said, "Not bad, not bad, it would be a pity if you didn't enter this profession!"

  Jian Heng heard the old man's words, and said a little bit shamelessly: "Where, where, I just use it a little more than others!"

  He said this in his mouth, but he said in his heart: Old man, you really know how to joke, Xiao Jian, I have such a big business, and I follow you to give massages? Isn't that holding a golden bowl and begging for food!

   "Then let's?" Seeing that the old man wanted to pick up the brush, Jian Heng quickly signaled to the old man that we are done with the acupoints, and it's time to learn how to ride a horse. Why did you pick up the brush again?

   This is a subconscious action of Mr. Yao, so Jian Heng interrupted him and said with a smile: "Wait for me later, I will lead the horse back to the stable."

  After speaking, the old man started nagging at the horse again. Jian Heng was a little annoyed listening to it, and felt that if he was a horse, he would have to give the old man a hoof.

It's a pity that Jian Heng is not a horse. The white horse seems to like the old man Yao calling him like this now. After the old man untied the side reins on both sides, he followed the old man back to the cubicle honestly, and when the bridle was removed , he actually yelled at Mr. Yao who closed the door.

"You stay here at ease, I'll come to see you at night." Mr. Yao took three or four steps, and when he heard the neighing of the horse, he turned around again, stretched out his hand to support the horse's chin, and gently let go of the horse's chin with the other. Gently stroking on the horse's head, it seems like a man in love stroking his lover.

"Okay, old man, let's hold on tight. I still have classes in the afternoon. If you don't leave, you can only stay on the horse for ten minutes." Come on, so he immediately urged.

Hearing what Jian Heng said, the old man let go of his hand and followed Jian Heng to another compartment. Jian Heng led the horse out while explaining, and taught the old man how to shake the saddle, how to shake the saddle, and how to buckle Girdle, and explained in detail what kind of tightness is appropriate after the girdle is tightened.

  Don't say it, good old man, don't look at his age, his comprehension is really good, at least a lot stronger than Zhao Wei and Feng Sanzhu, and he learns things very seriously and very fast.

  Helping the old man on the horse, and handing over the rein to him, Jian Heng grabbed the 20 cm of the side rein and led the horse out of the stable.

It was the first time to ride a horse, just to experience the novelty. Jian Heng couldn't let it go. He found a snowy field that had never been stepped on. Jian Heng slowly let go of the side rein in his hand, and then directed the horse to start riding. Circle around yourself.

"Relax, old man, straighten your body, but you have to relax a little bit, you are too nervous now." Jian Heng saw that the old man was sitting on the horseback as if it was sealed with cement, so he immediately reminded him stand up.

   "Can you not be nervous!" Mr. Yao could feel his own nervousness, so he replied to Jian Heng.

  The feeling of riding a horse for the first time is completely different from usual. Some people say that is not nonsense, and now I am riding a horse with two legs.

   But the difference here refers to the sight and the feeling in the heart. Suddenly, the sight is raised a bit, and the feeling is not just as simple as riding a horse. What's more, people will be worried, because after all, the body is not under their own control, so naturally there will be some sense of insecurity, and the whole body maintains a protective state.

"Then take a few deep breaths. If you are so nervous, the horse will also be nervous with you. If you want to ride that white horse, you have to learn to control your emotions. Only in this way can you achieve the unity of man and horse..." Jane Heng said while making gestures, signaling the old man to relax.

   After a while, the old man relaxed, but Jian Heng couldn't see it again, because the old man was too relaxed, and his whole body collapsed a little on the horseback.

   "Straighten your waist, straighten your waist, and you have to make a 90-degree angle to the horse's back at all times, even when the horse is climbing a slope." Jian Heng corrected the old man's movements again.

  Rounding is a process for beginners to get familiar with the horse's back, and at the same time, it also gives the horse a chance to adapt to the new master, Mr. Yao.

  The horse is quite good, honest to the point where he has no temper at all, Jian Heng walks away when told to stop, and stops when asked to stop. It is indeed a horse that is very suitable for novices to ride.

   Divided into two groups, after going around for about 20 minutes, the old man was tired, and his forehead hidden under the leather hat began to sweat slightly.

As soon as Jian Heng found out, he couldn't practice any more. Mr. Yao is so old, it would be terrible if he got sick, so he said to the old man: "Let's stop here today, let's practice again at noon tomorrow. ?”

   "Okay, listen to you, I'll digest what I learned today" the old man readily agreed.

  So the two went back to the stable together. This time, Jian Heng asked the old man to learn how to remove the saddle, take the sweat pad, and remove the bridle.

   After finishing the whole set, Jian Heng went to class alone, while the old man continued to stay in the stable, smelling the smell of horse manure, and continued to talk to the white horse.

After tossing a group of people for another two hours, when Jian Heng took them back to the exercise room, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon, and let Damai and Wheat take them to do the last stretching exercise together. He went back to the stables, ready to learn massage with the old man.

If you let Jian Heng stay in the stable, ten minutes is no problem, and twenty minutes can be barely enough, but this stay is an afternoon, Jian Heng must go crazy, and it is still a winter stable, which smells of horse manure. It smells like horse urine, which is really bad. Even Jian Heng feeds all grass fodder and no other auxiliary materials. Even if he feeds some oatmeal, it is all organic, but the smell of horse manure is still quite good. Thick.

  Let's put it this way, after staying in the stable for an hour, all the clothes smell like that when you come out.

   I don't know how the old man suffered. After staying all afternoon, even if Jian Heng came to call for someone, he still looked reluctant.

Back in the massage room, waiting for the whole room to warm up, the four people who grabbed the free places today also came, two of them are small models of Mowu Company, and two of them are former old students. In addition to the seat, Branca also followed.

  Jian Heng didn't ask too much. Anyway, in this room, his position is that of an apprentice, and the old man is in charge of everything. Seeing Blanca, Jian Heng cursed a few words in his heart: If the old man just likes to talk, press Blanca!

   At this time, the old man had already warmed up his hands with Jian Heng, and all the things for massage had been laid out.

   "Go, call that Rowena in!" The old man tidied up his massage bed again, and pulled the long towel spread on it.

  Jian Heng considered himself an apprentice, so he had to look like an apprentice, and immediately turned outside the screen after being instructed by the 'teacher'.

   "Rowena!"

   Shouting towards the door, the thin little model jumped in happily like a deer.

"It's me! It's me!"

   "No one said it wasn't you." Jian Heng smiled, and pointed to the massage table in front of Mr. Yao.

  Rowena was much more generous. She walked to the side of the massage table, shrugged her shoulders, and lay down on the massage table so smoothly, showing her white back to the two big men.

  The old man rubbed his hands, and began to rub the oil on the shelf next to Rowena's body. While wiping, he told Jian Heng the essentials of massage.

   "There are many massage techniques, but the main ones are just a few, such as pointing, pressing, rubbing, kneading, rubbing, twisting, pushing, rubbing, sweeping...".

Jian Heng was dumbfounded when he heard it, and saw the old man's mouth beeping non-stop for a minute, and none of the techniques were repeated. With such a large set of techniques, Jian Heng didn't remember a few, so Said: "This is not too much? Then what is too much?"

   "Stop talking nonsense! You have to learn these things slowly. What you need is practice rather than rote memorization. Next, pay attention to my handle. This is the point."

"oops!"

  As the old man put his hand on Rowena's back, Rowena let out a sour cry.

"This is the point. Remember the acupuncture points. Don't make a mistake. Some acupuncture points can be heavy, but some acupuncture points must be light. If you make a mistake in the acupuncture points, or if you get the weight wrong, you will die, so you must be careful when pressing. Be focused, don't be distracted..."

  The old man spoke solemnly, and Jian Heng listened attentively. This is not the time for a hippie smile.
