"Hold out your hand."
It was a ring.
Qin Li was happy in his heart and obediently extended his hand.
Yan Sen added, "Close your eyes."
Although his heart was full of curiosity, Qin Li closed his eyes cooperatively.
He patted her hand, motioned for her to relax, and placed a ring on her finger.
Qin Li only felt his fingers cold, and without waiting for him to speak, he could not wait to open his eyes.
A glittering diamond ring with a large diamond, at least one carat.
"Wow, it's beautiful." Qin Li could not help but praise, I am afraid that every woman will be attracted by the dazzling light of diamonds.
Qin Li wanted to bite and see if it was true or false, but was caught by Yan Sen.
He took her hand and asked, "Do you like it?"
She immediately nodded, raised her hand to point the ring at the sun, in the sun, I saw the big diamond flashing a dazzling multicolor light. Her fingers are very thin, her nails are round and full, although the six months often do farm work, the skin has turned a little black, but it does not affect the overall appearance.
Qin Li said, "Is this diamond real?"
Yan Sen nodded, "If they didn't fish in troubled waters and sell me fake goods."
Qin Li asked, "Then where did you get the money?"
Although I don't know what brand this ring is made of, this carat diamond is always genuine, at least several thousand euros.
Yan Sen said, "It's the money I got from selling the cow."
Qin Li was surprised and asked, "Which end is it? I went to feed the cattle this morning, and I didn't see one missing."
Yan Sen said, "Black Hawk..."
Qin Li thought it was wrong and could not help but refute, saying, "The black eagle is at home, I also comb its tail when I feed it this morning."
So, Yan Sen took a breath and finished the unfinished words, "The black eagle will soon be in labor, and I have already talked about the next home."
Qin Li wondered, "How much can a calf buy?"
"Two thousand and five thousand," said Yan Sen, nodding his chin toward the ring on her finger. "Not a penny, and I spent it all on this."
Qin Li said, "See you are very reluctant to give up, do you regret selling the calf?"
"You can't lure a Wolf from a child." Yan Sen paused and said, "This is my engagement ring for you."
Qin Li looked surprised, "Propose?"
Yan Sen nodded, "You wear my ring is equal to consent."
This is simply a rogue, Qin Li feel very egg pain, which one in the street like a beggar to propose ah?
Qin Li took the ring off his finger, threw it back at him and said, "Fuck you."
Yan Sen was afraid that the ring would fall to the ground and roll into the gutter, so he quickly grabbed it and put it back in the velvet box and put it in his coat pocket. He bought it for a calf. Don't drop it.
He stood up and ran after him, asking, "What's wrong?"
Qin Li, "Nothing."
Yan Sen, "Are you angry?"
Qin Li, "No."
Yan Sen, "Then why didn't you accept my proposal?"
Propose? Did he beg? He did not mention these two words even if, mention Qin Li came to gas, "because I think we are still short of breath."
Yan Sen, "What breath is missing?"
Qin Li, "lack of romance."
Seeing his dumbstruck face, Qin Li said, "Even if there is no lobster, at least you should invite me to have a candlelight dinner; Even if I don't ask the band to play for me alone, at least there must be a background music to support the atmosphere; If not on my knees in front of everyone, I should at least ask if I will marry you."
Qin Li Yue said more angry, shouted at him, "Nima, nothing, and dare to ask me to marry you."
Yan Sen is very innocent, "Not nothing, I have a ring!" I thought we had reached the point where silence was better than words..."
Qin Li gave him a hard white look and dropped two words, "Bullshit."
Their day in Salzburg ended badly.
* * *
Back at the farm, when Yan Sen got off the bus, he grabbed Qin Li, shoved the box with the ring into her hand, and said, "I am sincere, you think again."
Qin Li snorted proudly and walked into his room with his neck held high.
At night, before going to bed, she couldn't resist taking the ring out, wearing it on her ring finger and looking left and right. Although the diamond is big and the ring is beautiful, it always feels like something is missing.
Is it a lack of romance?
Not really. After all, she was not a young girl in her early twenties, and romance and mood could add spice to life, but they were only icing on the cake. I can live without it.
What she's struggling with is, should she marry?
You've had one failed marriage, and it was a total failure, so this second time, will it be different, or will it be the same? No one can tell her the answer, only to try, but the question is whether she will try? Would she dare to try?
Although she knows Yan sen is not Sun Yi, life is not the same, but still from the heart panic. Worried that married, everything will change, sweet become bitter, dreams become nightmares, probably this is the legend of fear of marriage.
Qin Li found a ring from his jewelry box, the style and Yan Sen this one is completely different, is the original Sun Yi sent. She put Sun Yi's on the left, Yan Sen's on the right, and then left and right together, looking at it for a while.
So much had happened that it was now certain that Sun Yi was a man who cheated on women's feelings, so she did not want to mention him at all. But before marriage, and even after marriage for a while, he was a model husband who only envied mandarin ducks rather than fairies. Now she and Yan Sen is sweet period, such as the expiration of the freshness period, everyone's bad habits are revealed, then will still respect each other, or become enemies, it is unknown. What's more, they have living habits and cultural differences in front of the two gaps.
Qin Li took both rings off his fingers, put them back in the jewelry box, shut them with a smacking noise, and locked them in the drawer together.
Go to sleep. Get married later.
In the middle of the night, someone vaguely knocked on the door and woke Qin Li up from his dream.
Qin Li sat up in the dark and asked dreamily, "Who is there?"
Yan Sen, "It's me."
Qin Li complained, "Why don't you go to bed in the middle of the night and knock on someone else's door?"
Yan Sen said, "Black eagle is giving birth."
Qin Li suddenly couldn't turn his mind and asked, "Who is Black Eagle?"
Yan Sen simple tunnel, "cow."
Qin Li is still confused, "Cow what?"
Yan Sen had to turn the ellipses into words, one word at a time, "The black eagle in our ranch is going to produce a calf."
Qin Li was shocked and suddenly woke up. She quickly turned on the lamp and shouted at Yan Sen, "I'll change my clothes and come right away."
Yan Sen, "OK, I'll go to the cowshed first."
It was a cold autumn night, Qin Li changed a T-shirt, put on a hardshell jacket and low boots, opened the door and ran out.
The door is equipped with a row of induction lights, with the Qin Li small leather boots clomping footsteps, one after another lit up, the outside hallway lit up.
The cowshed was separated by an iron fence, and a square grid closed a cow. Before Qin Li came near, he heard waves of cow cries, almost continuously.
Hearing the footsteps, Yan Sen turned his head and said to Qin Li, "Black Eagle is having a difficult birth, I need your help."
Qin Li immediately said, "OK, just let me know what you want me to do."
Yan Sen said, "To help it correct the fetal position."
Qin Li asked, "How to correct it?"
"I'm going to put my hand in its birth canal, help it position itself, and then pull the calf out."
Qin Li, "...
She suddenly felt that her words were too big, and this was really not something she could help casually.
Yan Sen saw her staring, he shouted, "Don't be silly, we have no time, you come quickly." Massage its stomach clockwise, the strength can not be too large, so as not to stimulate it. Try to distract it by talking to it when you press it."
Qin Li had to force his scalp, kneel down beside the black eagle, and put his hand on its stomach. It's hard under the skin, and there's a little life inside.
Qin Li opened his mouth and said, "Black Eagle, you are about to become a mother, just hold on for a while, you will complete your big life... Oh, no, the cow mission. You see, you are going to have a child, not like me, this life is likely to end."
Qin Li was incoherent and did not know what he was talking about. He just wanted to stop and listened to Yan Sen in that way, "Keep talking."
Qin Li could only touch the black eagle and said, "When you have a calf, you will produce a lot of milk, and the milk is very tasty, not only the calf likes to drink, but also we humans love to drink." Greatly said, drink a catty of milk every day, strong Chinese people, so for the prosperity of dairy industry, you have to refuel..."
Well, Qin Li can't make it up anymore. Fortunately, the black eagle is in her comfort, gradually calmed down.
Yan Sen exactly how to operate, Qin Li is not at all want to know, she stared at the cow's head, trying not to imagine.
After a few minutes, no movement, Qin Li could not help but ask, "Is it born?"
Yan Sen said, "I seem to touch the head of the calf, but the black eagle is not willing to force, I can not pull out a person." You..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Qin Li cut him off decisively and said, "I can't, don't look for me."
This thing about sticking your hand in the birth canal... I can't do it!
What else Yan Sen wanted to say, Qin Li said before he could open his mouth, "You forgive me."
Yan Sen turned his head and saw that she was about to cry, and immediately swallowed the words stuck in his throat. He got up, took off his rubber gloves, and said, "I'll call a veterinarian."
When Qin Li heard this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You hurry, I will watch you here."
Yan Sen nodded, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and made a phone call, "Carl, you slept?" I'm sorry. I'm afraid I'm gonna keep you up tonight. I have a problem with you. A cow is in labor and needs to be delivered. I can't handle this alone... Well, OK, I'll pick you up and see you in ten minutes."
After Yan Sen put down his phone, he said to Qin Li, "If there is anything strange here, call me immediately."
Qin Li nodded vigorously, "You go back quickly."
Yan Sen did not bother, took the car keys, turned and walked away. The noise of the car engine is especially loud in the middle of the night.
After Yan Sen left, Qin Li and black eagle were left, other cattle had gone to bed, and occasionally came a sound of cattle hiss.
Qin Li patted the black eagle's head and soothed him, "Hold on, the vet will be here soon."
Black eagle appeared very calm, so Qin Li slightly settled down, took out his mobile phone and began to brush Baidu to see how others helped the cow to deliver.
There are videos on Weibo and commentary... The Internet is really amazing.
After about five minutes or so, the black hawk began to stir again. It hissed long and painfully fast.
Looking at this, it is estimated that the pain has come again, so no matter what Qin Li says or does, it can no longer appease its emotions. The black hawk kept turning its body, throwing its neck up and down, looking like it was struggling.
Qin Li dared not delay, made a phone call to Yan Sen, Yan Sen listened to her description, immediately said, "You go to see if the head of the calf has come out?"
Qin Li cried with a sad face, "I, I dare not!"
Yan Sen said, "Listen, cows are like people, if they have trouble giving birth, the calf and cow will die without help." Li, now that you are in your position, you must be mentally prepared to face it."
Yan Sen's voice was extremely serious and somewhat heavy, and Qin Li's heart jumped. Yan Sen is right, time is life, and it may still be two dead, and now she is not living in the city, but in the countryside. Since I decided to come to the countryside as a farmer, I must be prepared for such things, just as Yan Sen said, in his position, to pursue his work.
Qin Li had to regroup his mood and force himself to take this difficult first step. She bit her lip, took a deep breath and, with fear and nausea in her heart, peered into the cow's bottom.
It was better than she had expected, there was no bleeding, the birth canal was open, and she could faintly see a small hoof sticking out. The cow is still struggling, but the fetus is not in the right position, and all the strength is in vain.
Yan Sen said eagerly on the other end of the phone, "There is no time to wait for me to come back, Li, I beg you to do me this favor, to deliver the cow."
Before Qin Li could speak, Yan Sen added, "All you have to do now is push the calf back into the birth canal, turn it around, touch its head, and then pull it out of the belly."
A few words, it sounds so easy, but in reality, it is very complicated.
Almost subconsciously, Qin Li felt that this was one of the things he could not do in his life, but looking at the cows and calves struggling on the edge of life and death, his heart could not bear it. The only thing left to do is to try it.
All right, make it or break it. She's out there. Let's make this day historic.
