After crossing, I was miserable.

Chapter 253 New Manor

As the carriage moved slowly, the two men arrived at the farm in the west of the city.

Qian Duoduo wanted to buy this manor because it was located in a remote area.

Of course, this is relative to the current inconvenient transportation.

If this were placed in modern times, it would definitely be a small villa surrounded by mountains and the sea.

Of course, "beside the sea" is a bit exaggerated.

But there are mountains around at the back, and the air is very good.

Qian Duoduo also wants to use this place as a small retirement base.

Therefore, daily necessities are very complete.

You can come anytime you want to stay.

However, it is indeed because of the inconvenient transportation.

Plus I'm a bit busy.

I haven't been here for a long time.

In addition to regular cleaning,

This place has been empty all this time, and I don't know what it looks like now.

"Miss, we're here."

The one who came out with them today was Uncle Li’s godson, Little Li.

He picked up Little Leo from a group of beggars and used him and his brother to support them in their old age.

The child is ten years old and very smart.

Originally, Qian Duoduo wanted to persuade Uncle Li that they would take care of them in their old age and that the mansion would not treat them unfairly.

But some things do require a son.

For example, after they die, the pots are smashed, which is the most important traditional idea of ​​this era.

And now, because Uncle Li has no legs,

In life, you do need someone to take care of you.

With this son, their lives are indeed much more convenient.

And this little Leo is also a person who knows how to be grateful.

Take care of Uncle Li and Uncle Li II as if they were your own fathers.

When Qian Duoduo has something going on, he will also be used.

And he was given a monthly salary.

There was no need to give him a monthly salary.

Because Qian Duoduo did not buy his slavery,

But this child is very smart and interesting.

If there is any work in the mansion, he will rush to do it as long as he sees it. He is very good at handling things.

Qian Duoduo is not the kind of person who enslaves others for free.

Since you have done the work, you should be paid.

After consulting with him, Uncle Li

He also sold himself into slavery and later became a member of the Qian family.

After hearing Xiao Li's voice, Chun Xia

I glanced outside nervously.

Then get off the car first and help Qian Duoduo down.

Qian Duoduo looked at the farm in front of him.

When we first met,

This village is hidden deep in the mountains.

It is surrounded by dense forests and winding streams.

It is like a hidden pearl.

It exudes a mysterious and tranquil atmosphere.

Outside the village is a green bamboo forest, swaying gracefully;

Inside the village are well-arranged courtyards and quaint and elegant buildings.

The bluestone path winds through the garden and leads to exquisite pavilions.

These pavilions are either built by the water or hidden among the flowers.

It gives people a sense of quietness and tranquility.

The village is filled with all kinds of exotic flowers and plants, which bloom all year round and emit a fragrant aroma.

There is also a small and exquisite rockery, where a clear spring flows in the summer.

It forms a small waterfall, cascading down like a silver thread.

Qian Duoduo was attracted by the scenery of the manor.

There is no hustle and bustle of the world here.

There are only birdsong, flowers and fresh air.

I heard that this place used to be a retirement estate for officials.

Although it is winter now, there is no feeling of coldness or desolation here.

Instead, it exudes a vibrant atmosphere.

Qian Duoduo looked at the trees outside the yard.

The branches are covered with crystal clear icicles.

It sparkles brightly under the sunlight.

The mountains in the distance are shrouded in thick fog.

It is looming, adding a bit of mystery;

The nearby lake has been covered with thick ice.

It is like a huge mirror, reflecting the beautiful scenery around it.

There is only one village at the foot of the mountain, and from a distance it looks like a vibrant scene.

The people living there lead a peaceful life.

It feels like being in a paradise.

Chunxia came down first, and then helped Qian Duoduo get off the car.

Little Leo quickly opened the door.

Chunxia helped Qian Duoduo walk inside.

The snow was not very heavy a while ago, so even if the snow was not cleared in time,

Most of the snow has melted, but some places have even frozen into ice due to the weather.

"Miss, be careful. The ground is a bit slippery."

"Let's go to the study. There's a medicine box there."

"Yes,"

"Little Leo, you don't have to follow us, just wait in the carriage."

"Yes, Miss."

Qian Duoduo walked lightly in the corridor leading to the study.

At the same time, he did not forget to glance at the movements in the yard out of the corner of his eye.

Everything seemed to be normal, but she felt something was wrong.

It was as if countless pairs of eyes were hiding in the dark and watching me.

But when she turned her head to check, she found nothing.

This strange feeling made Qian Duoduo alert, and she couldn't help but slow down her pace.

Pay more careful attention to your surroundings.

On a cold winter day, you can see neat rows of trees.

There are crystal clear icicles hanging on their branches, and the sunlight shines through the ice.

It emits colorful light.

There is a uniquely shaped fountain in the center of the yard, which has now been frozen into an ice sculpture.

The ice surface is as smooth as a mirror, reflecting the surrounding beautiful scenery, which is magnificent.

Everything seems so peaceful and tranquil.

But an overly quiet environment makes people feel uneasy.

However, the feeling of being watched could not be shaken off, making her feel uncomfortable.

Qian Duoduo stopped and stared at a corner of the yard, trying to find anything unusual.

But apart from the natural light and shadows and the wind and grass,

She didn't notice anything obviously unusual.

She wondered to herself, was she too sensitive?

Maybe it's just an illusion.

With some doubts, Qian Duoduo continued walking towards the study.

"What's the matter, miss?"

Chunxia asked anxiously.

In fact, she knew what was wrong.

But I didn't expect that a lady without any internal strength could feel it so accurately.

She thought that her master would lead everyone to retreat when he heard the sound of horse hooves.

But I didn't expect it to be like this.

Qian Duoduo heard Chun Xia's trembling voice.

Then I understood.

Chunxia stopped her from coming over before.

Now there are these anomalies,

Qian Duoduo kept staring at Chun Xia.

Chunxia's face turned pale, and there was a little sweat on her temples.

I can still sweat in this cold weather.

You can see how nervous she is.

"Nothing, it's just that this manor has been left for too long.

It feels a bit empty, a bit scary, and it always feels like it might be haunted.

Moreover, it should not be just one ghost, but possibly a group of ghosts."

"Ah?" Chunqiu didn't react for a moment.

"Okay, let's go apply the medicine and go."

The few people hiding in the dark looked at each other.

I felt that the young lady was hinting that they were the "ghosts".
