Edda returns to the farm (5) "Last year, I saw him sharpen a knife, and then chopped off one of the little wolf's paws, which was the left hind foot. The little wolf howled for three days and three nights, and blood was everywhere in the room. Later, my father also cried, and I also cried. Crying. He said to me while crying, this way, the little wolf will not be able to run away. You know, the little wolf always wants to run away." Depressedly, he squatted by the puddle, using a stick to stir up the leeches in the water.Ada gazed at his fiery red, baby-like soft hair from above, and the shock in her heart was indescribable.

Someone rustled the reeds, it was the oriental woman again, she disappeared after a flash. The boy said without raising his head: "That woman has no home, we call her 'crazy', she is so pitiful. Once, she left a shoe at my door, and she ran barefoot like that. My little wolf frightened her." "What's your name?" Ada remembered to ask him at this moment. "My name is Little Wolf. My father said that there are two little wolves in our family." "It sounds good." Ada said sincerely. Suddenly the little wolf became angry. He stood up and said bitterly, "You woman, why are you praising me? I don't want you to speak well of me." He threw the stick, and left her to crawl into the reeds.

Ada thought, maybe Manager Jin Xia and his family are all so fierce. Since Mr. Reagan hired him as the manager, it must be some kind of temperament in him that moved him.Living in a termite-eaten wooden house and raising wolves, the family actually poses no threat to anyone except themselves and each other.Where did Mr. Reagan find this man?Thinking about this family, Ada's pain was unknowingly relieved, which is really a panacea.She stretched out her long arms and jumped twice, feeling her lungs filled with fresh air.Mr. Reagan did a great job of letting her live under a tree. Ada stopped wandering, feeling like she wanted to do something.

A long time ago, when Ada was still in her hometown, she often watched people in her hometown make bricks with a kind of yellow clay, dry them in the hot sun, and then build houses.There is just this kind of soil by the woods where she is now.She made a brick model by hand and began to work hard.Her sweat dripped into the clay bricks, and her hands became very rough.Every day, in the setting sun, she heard the mountain torrent roaring past her ears. "Ada, don't you like being home and living out in the open?" Laura asked her. "I am a bee. You must have seen how a bee makes a nest."

When the wall was erected, Reagan watched from a distance, his heart fluttering.Ada's movements are so coordinated, so musical, as if she was born to be a skilled construction worker.The original section of the wall is now the back wall of her new house. There are two rooms in her new house, one at the front and one at the back.Laura also participated in her work. Laura had worked as a carpenter and is now helping her with the roof trusses. They are going to put fir bark on the roof. In this way, Reagan watched Ada move the camp bed into the hut he built.He knew that there was no electric light or running water in the shabby hut, not even a window, only a low wooden door.At noon, Jin Xia's eldest son, the "wolf boy", always came to the hut and knocked on the door.Ada stuck her head out and made a warm welcoming sound.But the wolf boy didn't go in, they chatted at the door, and then the wolf boy skipped away.Reagan saw it all.Reagan's home is not on the ship as he said, but in an abandoned trailer.Ali sent him simple food and water every day.

"Why does Ada have to live in the house?" he asked Jin Xia. "She's going to be a witness of the farm. The farm keeps expanding, and the boundaries change again and again, and she doesn't know what to do about it." When Jin Xia said this, she showed a satisfied expression. Reagan saw Jin Xia's wife come down the rickety stairs with a basket of clothes. She was going to dry the clothes in the backyard. Her purple, swollen feet faltered as if in poor health.Jin Xia stood with Reagan under the tree, smoking one cigarette after another, squinting his narrow eyes and planning something in his mind.A trace of uneasiness flashed across Reagan's mind, and he remembered a certain rumor about him. "At any rate, this man's ambition threatens no one," thought Reagan.

Jin Xia's wife came out after drying the clothes in the backyard.As she went upstairs, Reagan saw that her bare feet were running water, making wet marks on the stairs with each step. "My wife and I are delusional in the house every day. She told me that the territory of our farm might occupy more than half of the country, and she wanted me to develop diversified operations." "I'm worried about termites," Reagan blurted out, a little ruefully. There was a disgusting smell in the trailer, like rotting sea animals, and Reagan didn't know where it was coming from.Lying on the sofa bed, he opened his eyes in the darkness, waiting for the arrival of the oriental woman.Now she changed her way, she was no longer entangled with him, she stood outside the car window, stuck her head in, breathed hard, and made an intoxicated sound, it turned out that she liked the smell inside the car.Reagan remembered that the woman walked around under the scorching sun all day long, and her clothes were dusty, but when he was entangled with her, he never smelled anything bad from her.It can be said that she has no smell on her body, not even body odor.So what was it about her that made her impulsive?When Reagan was with her, he did not attain sober judgment.Her flesh is like a fish in the sea, fresh and smooth, but always lacks texture at critical moments.At one point, when Reagan's mind was blown away by an orgasm, the woman's body actually disappeared.His whole body wasted quickly, and he felt very scared.Fortunately, that situation only lasted a few seconds, she reappeared, and he began that horny lingering with her again.She seldom spoke, and only once, she told him that she was from an unknown island in the Pacific Ocean, called Huangguo Island or something, a name that Reagan had never heard of.But at other times, her words are always only two or three words, "ahah", "unexpected", "look", "love", "go on", etc., with a strong foreign accent, and the meaning in the words Reagan couldn't figure it out, it was as if she was practicing and saying the words for fun.
