Across Ranch Story: Friends of Mineral Town

After leaving the blacksmith shop, Lin Xia hurried to the hospital to find Dot to get the ginseng seeds that he forgot to take last time.

The young nurse, Ellie, blushed and apologized to Lin Xia: "Lin Xia, I'm so sorry. I was careless yesterday and forgot to take the seeds. I made you run an extra trip. I'm sorry!"

Lin Xia quickly waved her hands and said it was okay, after all, everyone loves beauty! Haha~ Of course, Lin Xia only said this in her heart, and she didn't dare to tease him in person.

Knowing that Lin Xia planned to grow ginseng, Dot also gave Lin Xia an extra bottle of nutrient solution, which is helpful for plant growth, and reminded Lin Xia that ginseng needs to be planted in spring and is not suitable in autumn. Lin Xia took note of it.

After leaving the hospital, Lin Xia turned around and went to the grocery store. She hadn't bought any autumn clothes yet, so she could go shopping today.

Yesterday was the first day that the grocery store put fall clothes on the shelves. Almost everyone in the town had visited the store yesterday, except Lin Xia who was busy farming. So today, the clothing counter was reserved by Lin Xia.

Generally speaking, the autumn in Mineral Town is quite comfortable. It is a little chilly in the morning and evening, but when the sun comes out, the temperature is just right. It is truly a refreshing autumn day.

Lin Xia made a careful selection, mainly sportswear with long shirts and long pants, and also selected some cardigans, jackets and long windbreakers that were easy to put on and take off.

As for shoes, in addition to sneakers, Lin Xia also chose a few pairs of mid-length Martin boots, which are great for going into the mountains or climbing, and there is no need to worry about snakes, insects, rats or ants.

After completing the shopping, Lin Xia ran directly to the church to find Carter. She was still worried about tomorrow’s concert.

There were not many people in the church at this moment, only Cliff sitting on the chair on the left, and Carter was not there either.

In the late summer, Lin rarely came to the church, and he hadn't seen Cliff for a while. He felt that the young man was more depressed.

She took out some freshly picked oranges and gave them to Cliff, who thanked her gratefully: "Thank you, Lin Xia! It's been a while since I came to Mineral Town. I really like this town. What a pity~"

Lin Xia: "What's wrong?"

Cliff smiled bitterly. "I've been to many places, and Mineral Town is the place where I've stayed the longest. But I still haven't found something suitable for me to do. Besides, my money is almost gone. I think I'll leave here in a while and go somewhere else. Maybe I can find something suitable for me to do in other cities!"

Lin Xia: "Don't be discouraged, you can stay for a while, maybe there will be a job that you are interested in!"

"That's right! Thank you for your comfort. I feel much better now."

"Lin Xia, why are you here today?" At this time, Carter came in from the door on the right, saw Lin Xia and greeted her happily, "It's just right, you and Cliff are having dinner here today, right?"

Lin Xia quickly declined, "How can this be so embarrassing? I'd better go back and eat!"

Carter: "It's okay, you're welcome. I often receive your gifts, so I should express my gratitude. Cliff also often helps me clean the church, which is a great help to me. It's only right that I treat you to a meal. Don't worry, Miss Lin will bring lunch over in a while."

Lin Xia stole a glance at Cliff, and seeing his flushed face, she couldn't help but smile knowingly and said, "Then I won't be polite!"

Carter said happily, "Haha, I just like Lin Xia's generosity. Lunch is still a while away, can you two help tidy up the church during this time? After all, the concert will be held tomorrow, and I'm afraid I'll miss something if I'm alone."

Lin Xia & Cliff: “No problem!”

Lin Xia: "By the way, Carter, thank you very much for inviting me this morning, but there is one thing I want to tell you in advance. I can't play the foreign flute, so I'm afraid I'm going to let you down!"

Carter smiled and said, "Lin Xia, don't worry about that. The foreign flute is easy to play. I'll teach you after lunch. I believe you'll be able to learn it quickly. Don't worry!"

Having said that, it would be a bit rude for Lin Xia not to agree. She thought about studying it in the afternoon. If she couldn't learn it, she believed Carter would adjust the plan.

The three of them began to clean the church. In fact, the church was not very dirty because it was usually maintained. Carter went to clean the confessional, and left the outside to Lin Xia and Cliff. The two of them carefully checked and cleaned every corner of the church.

Finally, the three of them spent about an hour cleaning the church. Although the church was not very dirty, it was very large and it was very tiring. Lin Xia took out her handkerchief and wiped the sweat off her face.

Meanwhile, Lin from the hotel had already brought lunch over. Carter warmly invited the two to eat: "Thank you so much, both of you. Lunch is ready, let's start eating!"

I have to say, food tastes better when there are more people around, although it may also be because they are hungry from working too hard.

After dinner, Carter carefully taught Lin Xia how to play the foreign flute. As Carter said, the foreign flute was not difficult to play. All she had to do was remember the basic fingerings and control her breath. Carter also understood that Lin Xia was a beginner, so the music scores he taught Lin Xia were the most basic. He also agreed that Lin Xia could take the foreign flute home to practice more, and bring it to the concert tomorrow.

Cliff secretly said to Lin Xia: "Don't be nervous. As far as I know, tomorrow's concert will be a chorus. In addition to you, there will be piano, accordion, saxophone, etc. Everyone will play together. Even if you play poorly in some places, it will not be discovered!"

Oh~ Isn't this creating an opportunity for me to fill in the gaps? No wonder Carter is so careless. He never asked himself if he could sing a chorus. It really doesn't have much impact. I can fill in the gaps well.

Lin Xia stopped worrying immediately! She put away her foreign flute and happily rushed to the beach. She didn't know what kind of medicinal herbs there were on the beach in autumn. Lin Xia had to step on the nearby areas.

After running along the coastline, Lin Xia found three blue grasses - eating them would restore 3 points of physical strength and reduce 22 point of fatigue.

Lin Xia put away the watch. Now that we are at the beach, let’s go see Huo An and Zack!

After entering the house, I only saw Huo An. Zack was not there. He must have gone to deliver goods. Thinking of this, I suddenly realized that I had not bought the massage chair yet and I had to go to Dart's house later.

"Lin Xia! What do you want to buy? I have everything here! Come and take a look~" Seeing Lin Xia enter the room, Huo An's eyes immediately lit up and he greeted her enthusiastically.

Lin Xia walked over and said, "What new products are there recently? Don't be so exaggerated. You always say that you have everything. Do you think this is reliable?"

Huo An: "Hey~ Aren't these just sales terms? We all know the ins and outs of this, don't take it so seriously~"

Lin Xia shuddered. This turned out to be her problem. She glanced at the goods on Huo An's counter. There was nothing she particularly wanted. Thinking of Ah Huang who was out of control as soon as he went out, she asked hurriedly, "Do you have a dog leash? My Ah Huang has grown up. I want to take him to the back mountain to hunt in the future. But now he is a little too excited and not very well controlled, so he needs a leash and some training."

"Yes, we do have them, but they're just ordinary leashes. If you want better training results, I suggest you ask at the pet shop in your class on the 15th. The ropes there are more professional." Huo An said seriously.

It was really unexpected that Huo An didn't cheat on her! Huo An probably saw what was going on in Lin Xia's mind and rolled his eyes at her: "We are old friends who know each other well, how could I really cheat on you?"

Huo An: If Ban didn't run a pet shop here, I would definitely have to sell my ordinary dog ​​leash to this guy. But the key is, once this girl sees a more professional one at Ben's place, she will definitely come over to ask for an explanation. I can't stand it. This girl is sometimes worse than a bandit!
