Chapter 92

Li Han and Dudu spent the whole night tinkering in the space. Early in the morning, Li Han took Dudu to the beer shack to check on the malt in the space. It had fermented well. Li Han led the little one to transport the malt. "Dudu, carry the small bags, Dad will carry the big ones."

"No, Dudu wants to carry the big ones." Dudu twisted her little bottom, unwilling to comply. Dudu was quite capable, running over to the big malt bag and heaving it out of the space with great effort, not forgetting to call out to her dad. "Dad, come quickly, Dudu is about to drop it."

Li Han really couldn't do anything about the little one and hurried out to help. Dudu's little face was red, but she looked proud. Li Han pinched her little nose. "Alright, help Dad carry the small bags, okay?" "Okay." She reluctantly nodded her little head. Li Han turned on the equipment and poured in the malt. Father and daughter made several trips back and forth to transport the malt. By the time they finished in the morning, Li Han was so tired he collapsed on the sofa. Dudu, mimicking her dad, lay down with her belly out, not at all like a little lady. Li Han tapped her little head. "Sit properly." "Dad isn't sitting properly either." Dudu wrinkled her little nose and pouted. Li Han, helpless, got up and sat properly.

He really couldn't do anything about the little one. He got up to stretch, then started preparing breakfast. Dudu helped by washing vegetables and learning to cut tomatoes and cucumber strips with a small knife. Her cuts were crooked but quite amusing, making Li Han laugh. Dudu got angry and refused to continue, fussing at Li Han. "Dudu, Aunt Daina is delivering milk. Go and get a small bucket of milk, and Dad will make you milk tofu." "Okay, Dudu and Little Black will go together." Dudu cheered, grabbed the playful Little Black, and ran out of the small house with a small milk bucket.

Li Han re-cut the tomatoes and cucumbers, added cream and salad dressing, and tasted it. It was really good. Dudu filled the milk bucket, drank half of it while leaning on the bucket, and Little Black, mimicking Dudu, almost fell into the bucket, scaring it into clinging to Dudu. "Aunt Daina, Little Black is so timid." "Yes, the little one is too timid. Dudu, let Aunt Daina help you carry it."

"Dudu can carry it, Dudu is very capable." Dudu easily lifted the milk bucket, one hand around Little Black's neck, dragging it along. Daina finally freed the poor little bear, but it crawled back to Dudu's side.

Dudu continued dragging Little Black, its belly exposed, legs stretched out, and paws tightly gripping Dudu's arm. They dragged it back to the small house. "Daina, good morning. Come and try the freshly baked bread."

Daina took a piece of bread, tore off a bit, and put it in her mouth, looking delighted. "Han, it's delicious." "Thank you. How about a cup of hot coffee?" Li Han brewed the coffee, poured a cup, and handed it to Daina. Dudu raised her little hand, eating bread and calling out. "Dudu wants coffee too." "Kids can't drink coffee. Have some yogurt instead." Li Han smiled, wiped the bread crumbs from Dudu's mouth, and handed her a cup of yogurt. Dudu happily hugged the cup and drank the delicious yogurt.

Breakfast was simple, and Daina stayed to eat some. Daina took the extra milk back to make cheese or yogurt and feed the lambs. Li Han busied himself preparing lunch for Dudu. Later, Li Han and Dudu would go to the town center square to join the kindergarten parade. Dudu changed into a small dinosaur costume, chubby with a big tail. Her chubby body wobbled as she walked, and her big tail swayed. Dudu practiced on the grass, wobbling and swaying, making Li Han laugh heartily. Dudu refused and demanded that Dad wear a big dinosaur costume. Li Han quickly surrendered and helped adjust Dudu's dinosaur costume to make it lighter. Dudu happily swayed her little tail and climbed into the pickup truck.

At the town center square, Cynthia was already there, along with a few other students dressed in various dinosaur costumes. The four little ones, including Dudu, were familiar with Li Han, especially Michelle, who was the same age as Dudu. Both were carnivorous dinosaurs, with Dudu being a super T-Rex and Michelle a Giganotosaurus. The two little ones wagged their tails and giggled as they got together. "Han, thank you for your hard work." "No problem. Come on, kids, let's go."

Li Han loaded the little 'dinosaurs' into the car. Dudu and Michelle, along with Rem and Cimi, followed Cynthia closely. Cynthia's car was a GMC, a big vehicle. They transported about ten little dinosaurs to the entrance of the Chris Estate, where they prepared protest signs and held them up. Cynthia led them in protesting the estate's hunting of small animals. The protest parade was quite interesting, with some passersby stopping to watch or walking around.

The hunting grounds had already opened for business, and Chris had managed it well. Whenever a bus entered the estate, the ten little dinosaurs would gather around, holding their signs. Many tourists were curious and often stayed to watch, but most still chose to enter the estate. By noon, three buses had arrived, mostly foreign tourists. Over a hundred tourists had come, and not a single one had turned back because of the little dinosaurs' protest. The little dinosaurs had worked hard all morning, but their handmade signs had no effect.

At noon, the little dinosaurs ran to the shade, took off their dinosaur costumes, and were drenched in sweat, their little faces red. Li Han brought out a cooler and prepared lunch. The Chris Estate sent over iced drinks and hamburgers, which were quite good, but Dudu didn't eat them. Her little mouth was picky. Li Han opened the lunch box, sliced the beef thinly, seasoned it, and served it with chicken soup, grilled cream bread, small ice cream, and a plate of cookies. "Dudu, share with your classmates."

Dudu generously offered the cookies to Michelle and the others. Li Han opened a bottle of cola and handed it to Cynthia. "The kids did a great job today." "Yes, they are all the best. Han, Dudu has great leadership skills."

A group of little ones surrounded Dudu, who didn't know what to say. Michelle, Rem, and Cimi listened intently, munching on the cookies. After a short rest, they put on their dinosaur costumes again and walked around the Chris Estate. Li Han took Cimi and the others back to the town square, then returned to the small farm with Dudu. After a bath, Dudu had a very happy day, learning a lot about protecting small animals and dinosaur knowledge.

Dudu counted off the top ten carnivorous dinosaurs on her fingers: T-Rex, Velociraptor, Deinonychus, Giganotosaurus, Carcharodontosaurus, Allosaurus, Giganotosaurus, Tyrannosaurus, and Megalosaurus. She spoke confidently, describing their sizes and appearances, which was quite impressive.

"Dudu, take a bath and have some ice cream." "Wow, ice cream." Dudu cheered and ran into the bathroom. A while later, she came out, clean and fresh, dressed in a pink T-shirt and pink shorts, looking adorable.

Li Han handed Dudu a big bowl of ice cream, and she sat on the sofa, swinging her little legs, happily digging in. Li Han turned on the TV. "Dudu, watch TV. Dad is going to Aunt Daina's. Be good." "Okay, Dudu will watch TV and play with Big White and Little White." "Good girl, go to sleep if you're tired." Li Han patted Dudu's little head and left, riding his four-wheeler to George's farm.

Daina, Hutton, and Jim were there, herding the cattle back to the fourth pasture. They would move to a new pasture early the next morning. "Han, over here. Look at our farm's first calf, a healthy little one." Li Han stopped his four-wheeler and walked over quickly. "It's a heifer, Han. Look, she's a good girl." The little calf wobbled to its feet, and Li Han approached, extending his hand. The calf licked his hand. "Han, she likes you."

"Yes, she's a beautiful girl. Jim, Hutton, Daina, let's have a drink to celebrate the farm's first calf and a better future for the farm." Li Han was excited and patted the calf, which seemed to like him, rubbing against his hand.

In the evening, Li Han brought out a large bucket of beer, grilled beef, chicken, and salad. The meal was abundant. Dudu poured a drink and raised a glass to toast with her dad. Li Han smiled and ruffled her little head. "Let's toast to the farm's first calf and a better future for the farm."

"To the farm's first calf." "Dudu wants to toast too." Dad didn't wait for Dudu, so she finished her drink and poured herself a glass of milk, gulping it down. "Dudu toasts, I'm a grown-up." "Good, Dudu toasts." Li Han cut a piece of beef and put it on Dudu's plate. The little one had already eaten a big chicken leg, two glasses of milk, a glass of juice, and a small cake.

Li Han handed a beer to Daina, took a bite of grilled meat, and said, "Jim, is everything ready for the move tomorrow? Do you need my help?" Jim wiped the beer foam from his mouth, handed the cup to Daina, and said, "No problem, Han."

"Another round."

Dudu patted her belly, unable to drink any more, her little face looking sad. She hadn't grown up yet and couldn't drink as much as Dad and Aunt Daina. She pouted, pulling the playful Little Black, which curled up in her lap, its belly exposed, whimpering pitifully, its paws scratching its belly, hungry. Dudu gave Little Black the full glass of milk and secretly poured another small one, planning to toast with Dad again later.
