Chapter 492: Dealing with the Evil Slave for a Second Time(1)_1
Early in the morning, Wen’er and Wu’er had gone to school, Mu Zhongqing had gone to the restaurant, and now Cai Fei was at home in the cloth workshop, learning embroidery from an experienced embroideress. Therefore, only Cai Wei, Lady Du and Lady Mei were left at home.
After breakfast, Cai Wei took her mother Lady Du, her grandmother Lady Mei, and two old servants Dou Momo and Huan Qiu, they all got into the carriage and set off for the manor, leaving Xiao Qing and Xiao Hong to look after the house.
The Mu Family’s manor was located in the southern suburbs of the capital, over twenty miles away from the capital, neighboring the royal hunting ground. It was next to the mountains and rivers with pleasing scenery and was an excellent location.
The carriage had been traveling for nearly an hour, gradually leaving the capital and entered the manor. As soon as they entered the manor, Lady Du was immediately attracted by the picturesque scenery inside. She lingered by the carriage window, looking at the beautiful view with a look of surprise and admiration.
In front of the manor, there was a long, wide, and bright river stretching for dozens of miles into infinity. Behind was an enormous primeval forest and rolling green mountains, which also served as the royal hunting ground. Looking from afar, the green mountains were lush and continuous, trees covered the sun all day, making it a spectacular sight!
On both sides of the manor were farmlands. Although it wasn’t yet the sowing season, the endless fields were filled with tender green wild grasses and brightly colored wildflowers in full bloom. The breeze brushed past, bringing the fresh scent of wildflowers and grasses blended with the aroma of the earth, making one feel intoxicated!
"This is wonderful!"
Lady Du sincerely exclaimed, totally engrossed in the picturesque rural scenery.
Although Lady Mei was unable to see, she could hear the joyful chirping of the birds outside and smell the fragrance of the earth and flowers, which made her heart joyful.
She had been excited all night and all morning. Earlier in the carriage, she persistently asked if it was real, if she was dreaming. It was only when she heard the lively chirping of the birds and the joyful rushing of the river water that she gradually believed that everything was real!
