Chapter 1257
Since a certain annoying Uncle Goetz started to work in his ranch house on the 12th to help him expand the house, until the 17th today, in the six days that are not long or short, Annie has been I had a great time.
Every day, she gets up on time at 06:00 in the morning, because it is impossible to get up, and that uncle Gotz will come and knock on the door on time every day, even if it makes her want to sleep for an extra three to five minutes!
Then, after she opened the door to let the other party enter the house to start a day's work, she stopped caring about the other party and walked directly to the back mountain, first with Publing, Lynn or other young ladies, such as Mary, Karen or Ellie They frolicked shamelessly in the hot spring together for two hours, and after taking a bath, they wandered around the back mountain, by the lake, or in the ore town, or had a big meal at Uncle Da’s house, or went to Dick’s Drinking fruit juice and eating grapes at home, or strolling in Rose Square and the seaside, etc.?
Anyway, she always had a way to play and pass the time in different ways, and didn't stroll back in a hurry until Uncle Goetz finished work on time at 17:00 in the afternoon.
These days, Annie has not been able to catch a kappa in the lake in the back mountain, nor has she ever summoned the so-called "Master Goddess" from the Goddess Waterfall next to the hot spring! Anne herself didn't know why, maybe, those guys knew something, or they knew how powerful Queen Anne was?
Anyway, every time, as long as she was present, even if Poble or Lin threw the tribute into the pool, they couldn't summon that supposedly miraculous guy named 'Goddess' to come out!
But fortunately, Annie herself didn't care, because she didn't really want to see those gods and ghosts!
When facing ordinary people, she seldom uses her power casually, but if she really encounters those goddesses or Kappa, will she throw a fireball to burn the opponent to death? If it's gray or something, then she can't guarantee it.
In this way, Anne's recent state of being rich and only knowing to eat, drink, have fun and not work has continued. That kind of thing will definitely not be liked by the vast majority of people in Mineral Town! However, one of them is an exception, and that is Uncle Zach, the shipper who just finished his recuperation two days ago and can resume his busy receiving work!
After Anne promised that she would not ship before the summer, would not go to the back mountains to find goods or catch some messy animals, and would not go to the big fish in the sea to bring in some dangerous aquatic products, Zach was finally able to I felt relieved and was able to help the Poble family's chicken farm, the old man Mucci's pastoral farm, Saibala's forge house, Dick's family's orchard, Dart's millet's shop, and Kallen's sister's family's groceries The house shipped and received goods normally.
Of course, at the same time, he can finally free up time to accept some small but very important import and export orders for other places in Ore Town, such as hospitals, lumberyards, and churches.
But those things are not important because Anne doesn't care about those little things!
But today, because the sun was too big, she went to the hot spring as a routine early in the morning to play with Poble and Miss Ellie for a while and took a nap in it. After she came back early, as soon as she returned to the ranch, she In front of his house, he saw the old man Mu Qi wandering outside his house with a pony, and he didn't know what he wanted to do?
"??"
くゝ
"Hello? Old Mu Qi...Grandpa, what are you doing here at my ranch?"
ヽノ?
Seeing the other party, just standing there with his body slightly bent, holding the pony's rein with his hands behind his back, looking in from the wide open door of the house, just standing there watching Uncle Goetz at work I have no intention of leaving,
Annie was a little curious, so she couldn't help but walked over quickly and asked strangely.
"!!"
"Ah! Great, Anne, are you finally back?"
Hearing the voice and footsteps of a familiar little girl behind him and turning around to see that the person who came was indeed the sad little girl he was waiting for, the farmer of Muge Farm, Mucci, exclaimed happily One sound.
"??"
∑? !
"Do you have any business? Didn't you come here specially to chat with Gozi Shushu or watch him help others renovate this house?"
☆
That's right, Anne knows... Ever since the news spread that her ranch asked Uncle Goetz to help renovate the beautiful big house, those townspeople in Ore Town who were full and had nothing to do, including a certain bad-nosed The mayor, Thomas, often came here to watch, or chat with Uncle Gotz or something.
Anyway, Anne doesn't like those guys who are full to interfere with other people's work, because they look super boring, super annoying, and they really affect Uncle Goetz's work, and one day he will not be able to I didn't work overtime for an hour!
"ah?"
"No, no, no! Annie, I didn't come to see Goetz to repair the house today. I already came to see you two days ago. I actually came to see you today..."
Hearing what the little girl said, Mu Qi hurriedly smiled and waved his hands to explain.
"Is it like this?"
"Then, Grandpa Mu Qi, what are you looking for, you can talk about it now!"
ヽ
Hearing that the other party said that they didn't come to watch the excitement, Annie couldn't help but feel a little curious.
She really wants to hear, what kind of thing can such a bad old man who seems to know that it's not fun find her! After all, Annie knew it. She was not familiar with the other party, and she basically had no interaction with her on weekdays. Now that the other party suddenly came to find her, it was obviously very strange.
"Well……"
"Let's put it this way, Annie... I came to you today, but I actually wanted to ask you for a favor..."
As he said that, Mu Qi exerted a little force on his hands, and pulled the little pony beside him that had been fitted with a saddle and rein, and pulled the somewhat confused and restless little pony to Annie's. in front of.
"ah!!"
!?
a pony?
"I know! Grandpa Mu Qi, you want to ask someone to help you buy this little pony and eat it, right?!"
oo
If that's the case, Annie said that Fang Ke has found the right person! Because ah, she is very, very good at eating!
In the past, she once ate a magic horse of a certain elf king, but now, eating a pony or something is not a big problem for her at all. Who made it look so cute and tender? , looks so delicious?
If you add more cumin, star anise, bay leaves and cinnamon, and then put some hot spring water into it and simmer slowly, it will definitely be very fragrant and delicious, right?
Incredible!
Just thinking about it, Annie couldn't control her haha.
"!!"
"No! It's definitely not what you said!!"
Hearing what the other party said, and seeing that the other party really wanted to come over to grab the reins, Mu Qi was so frightened that he hurriedly pulled the very human horse that was trembling with the smell of an evil little girl's foraging. The little pony was pulled back and guarded behind him.
"Annie!"
"It's not the sodium salt you think, you misunderstood me!!"
"I... I actually want to ask you to help take care of it. I know that you have been busy recently. You haven't been farming, you haven't prepared mountain products, and you haven't gone fishing..."
"so……"
"That's why I want to ask you to help take care of it! That's right, that's it!"
In short, the facts are like that, it is just that Mu Qi feels that the little girl in front of him is too idle, and she knows how to idle around in the ore town all day long, which is not very good, and it is easy for his family Granddaughter Mei or any other kid in town setting a very bad example and 'role model'?
So, taking advantage of the fact that his foal was a little older and ready to eat grass and be weaned, he hurriedly brought it here, intending to let a little guy who had nothing to do all day also have a little bit of business to do?
"..."
"It's been a little listless lately, and I'm the only old man in our Pastoral Ranch, and 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 poor legs and feet! And, I figured it out, it should be just enough to carry you now... So I thought about it for a few days, and I don't think so. Who better to take care of it than you."
Mu Qi, who was afraid that the other party would reject him, hurriedly explained why he brought the pony here and urgently wanted to ask the little girl to take care of it after explaining clearly. At the same time, he explained the reason and pretended to be pitiful. begged so hard.
"..."
=
"that……"
"Okay, okay! Well then... Anyway, the stable is over there, and it has been empty all the time. If you think it is suitable, Grandpa Mu Qi, and you want to give it to him so much, then you can take it there. ..."
Originally, seeing that the other party didn't tell the truth, Anne didn't want to accept it, but seeing the other party seemed to be very pitiful, and it seemed nice to have a horse wandering around in the pasture? Therefore, after struggling for a while, Annie finally nodded lightly like a ghost, as if she had agreed to the matter.
"!!"
'oh! That's great, it's great that you can promise! '
"correct!"
"Annie, it hasn't been named yet, you can name it yourself later, and remember to take good care of it every day."
"Actually raising a horse is not as difficult as you might imagine, as long as you remember to take care of it every day, talk to it, brush its body, or take it out for a walk twice."
As if afraid of Annie's sudden repentance, the old man Mu Qi turned his head and talked excitedly, while leading the pony and ran to the stable on the other side of the gate of Annie's ranch. A hunchbacked old man?
"..."
It is possible to take it out for a walk or two when you are bored, but talking to the other party or brushing the body is unnecessary, unless you want to discuss with it how to eat it or prepare to cook it, otherwise, she Queen Anne Your lord will definitely not talk to or bathe that foal!
Because talking or something, it is enough for her to have Tibbers, her family's dog leg, and she doesn't want that stupid little pony!
 ̄●)
"I've got it done..."
"Annie!"
"That horse is temporarily placed here at your house. I will pick it up when it grows up. Before that, you must remember to take good care of it, please!"
Soon, a certain old man who had brought the foal to the stable and put it in the stable came back happily, grinning happily, and at the same time gave Anne loud instructions.
"!!"
!
"What? You have to take it back after being raised, how can you do that?!"
━━ン
Annie was stunned!
Just now, she thought that the other party gave it to her in a different way, but now it is good, the other party has some crooked idea, and she wants to take care of the other party herself, and help raise it, and then he will take it away when he grows up... What kind of international joke is this, when her family's ranch is free Thomas? !
If that's the case, she will absolutely not agree, and will find a chance to eat it!
"ah……"
Seeing the sudden and strong reaction of the little girl, Mu Qi was slightly taken aback, and opened his mouth, not knowing how to speak for a moment.
"..."
"Ah!"
"Annie, don't be in a hurry! Let me tell you, the reason why Grandpa Mu Qi told you that is actually to give it to you... But he was afraid that you wouldn't care about the pony if he said that. That's why I made an excuse that I asked you to take care of me."
\\\
"Everyone in our ore town knows that the foal he gave away has never been taken back, as long as you don't really abuse it!"
At this time, a certain carpenter Goetz, who was working in the house and heard all the conversations between Anne and Mucci because he was too close, stopped his work rarely, and then wiped his hands with a towel. With sweat on his forehead, he smiled and joked to Anne outside the house while lying by the window.
"!!"
=
"So it's like this?"
\/
"Really, just say no!"
s ゞ
Sure enough, it is definitely not unreasonable for Annie not to like to play with these adults for a long time! have a look? Such a small matter, and so many devious things have to be done, aren't they tired of living?
"That's fine!"
ゞ
"Old Mu Qi...Grandpa, don't worry, I will definitely take care of it, even if I don't have time, I will let Tibbers take care of it!!"
Anyway, it's just a little pony, so that's not a big problem. Annie doesn't intend to waste too much time with the other party here to continue writing.
"That's good……"
"etc!"
"Annie, your Tibbers, who is it?"
Nodding in relief, after getting the little girl's assurance, Mu Qi was just about to turn around and leave with confidence, but halfway through the turn, he turned around and asked this question cautiously.
'Wow~! '
:! !
"..."
"Ah! Anne, the Tibbers you mentioned, could it be..."
After being dazed for a while, Mucci seemed to remember something, and then, as if unbelievable, he tremblingly stretched out his hand towards a small squatting on the grass in the pasture wagging its tail. asked the milk dog.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"That's right! Mucci, Tibbers is Annie's dog!!"
At this time, Uncle Goetz, the carpenter who was about to retreat from the window sill to work, suddenly laughed heartily, obviously amused by Annie's naive idea of letting a dog help take care of the pony.
"Why are you laughing!"
oo
"Compared to you two stupid fellows, Tibbers is much smarter!"
oooh!
That's right, although her little bear may be a million times worse than Queen Anne, who is omnipotent and can learn everything at a glance, and is so stupid that it takes so long to follow her. I can't learn any other magic... But, compared to such a strange uncle and a bad old man in front of me, it is indeed much better.
"..."
In the end, although he was very reluctant and helpless, and he didn't really believe that a little girl's dog could really take good care of his pony, old man Mu Qi walked away without hesitation.
Because he had already opened his mouth to send the pony out, it would be inappropriate to take it back.
However, he also made a secret decision: he must come here when he has time, and if he sees that the other party is not taking good care of him, if he sees that the other party has abused the pony, he will definitely take it back immediately ?
"Eh?"

"Grandpa Mayor Thomas with a big nose, why are you here?"
⊙?
Just as that cunning old man Mucci left, a certain old man with a bad nose came to Annie's ranch again, and walked quickly in front of Annie.
"The matter is urgent, and I still have a lot of people to notify, so I'll make a long story short!"
"Annie..."
"It's like this, today is the 17th, and tomorrow will be the 18th. There will be a spring horse race in the square of our ore town tomorrow. You should have known about it, right? However, since your ranch does not have horses, so We will not invite you to participate, but at that time, please remember to watch the competition!"
"That's the deal!"
After finishing speaking, the mayor Thomas, after wiping the fine layers of sweat beads on his forehead, got pregnant and planned to rush to the next house, preparing to notify and implement to everyone the details of the game that will start tomorrow. body.
"etc!!"
"Grandpa Mayor Thomas, there is a horse in his ranch!!"
oo
Seeing that the other party was about to leave after finishing talking, Annie, who remembered some important things, hurriedly called to the other party, as if she was going to take the little pony she had just bought to the competition.
"Mayor, don't listen to her nonsense!"
"Where does her family have a horse that can participate in the competition? It is a little pony sent by Uncle Mu Qi just now. It must not be able to participate in the competition. You should hurry up and inform the next family!"
However, before Mayor Thomas turned around and asked, Goetz, who was resting in front of the window, hurriedly added that it was a magical shot, which completely cut off a certain little guy from riding. The idea of a foal going to a race.
"That's impossible!"
"Annie, underage ponies are not allowed to participate in the competition, so let's do this first, remember to come to the square to watch the competition tomorrow?"
"But don't be too sad, because we still have a lot of games in the future. If it doesn't work this time, it will definitely work next time. You will definitely have the opportunity to participate!"
After finishing speaking, Mayor Thomas turned around, without giving a little girl a chance to try to explain herself or make trouble unreasonably, she just hurriedly left, ready to go to the next destination and notify the next family.
"wait……"
!
"How can it be like this?"
°°
Annie wanted to say something, but the other party quickly disappeared outside the gate of her ranch, never thinking of giving her a chance.
