Chapter 72
In the east yard is a green pond where Grandfather’s favourite koi swim. Grandfather goes there to see the koi when he is in a bad mood.
There is also a bamboo forest in the deepest part of the south yard, where it is very cool in the summer and there are lots of crickets.
North… What’s in the north again?
Mary Kinson’s eyebrows drew together slightly, and she could not immediately recall it, but she remembered this image very clearly in her past life, and recalled it thousands of times after her rebirth…
However, the memory stops at the images of her as an orphan girl struggling in the large room.
Suddenly, a deep male voice brought her back from her memories to reality, “What are you afraid of?”
Mary Kinson suddenly came back to her senses and looked blankly at William Black. There were some attachments from past lives in the drizzling foxes eyes. “I am not afraid.”
William Black did not understand, and his eyes were a little deep.
He patted her wrist, “Hold me.”
It is a command and a protection.
His voice is heavy, but it makes people feel down to earth.
Mary Kinson looked into his deep eyes and smiled slightly.
She is the eldest daughter of the Kinson family, so what should she be afraid of?
And besides, she has William Black at her back.
The eldest daughter of the Kinson family might not be the only one, but there is only one William Black.
Of course, as long as she keeps William Black in the family compound, everyone knows who she is.
Two people entered the estate.
The servant greeted him, took his luggage from him, and greeted him respectfully, “William Black, you are back.”
William Black lowered his voice.
The servant rolled his eyes, not daring to look at him. “Some other masters are discussing things in the study right now. Are you going now?”
“Well, take Mary Kinson to my room so she can rest.”
The servant looked at Mary Kinson in surprise and leaned forward, “Mary Kinson, come here please.”
Mary Kinson released William Black’s arm and walked with him in the opposite direction.
William Black squinted his eagle eyes tightly, revealing a dull and complex light looming in his eyes.
The servant did not tell Mary Kinson where the room was, but she knew her way around the house.
Has she been to the family before?
What other secrets does it hold?
…
In the winding corridor, Mary Kinson walked in front of the servant, leisurely and relaxed.
Having lived here for a while, she did not feel at all a stranger.
The garden-like greenery and the old buildings, where one could rest at any time, exuded the leisurely atmosphere of wealthy families.
In the courtyard of William Black, she carefully pushed open the door and went straight in.
The servant who followed her brought the luggage into the room and set it down. “Mary Kinson , shall I clear up your luggage?” she asked.
“No, I’ll take care of it myself later, please.”
“You are welcome, I’ll go out first then and please call me anytime if you have anything.” The servant folded her hands and bowed, and the rules were very strict.
Mary Kinson had experienced this in a previous life, so she was not surprised.
After the servant left, she did not pack her bags and wandered the boardwalk alone.
In the pond in the eastern courtyard, there is a rare and precious black carp. She liked this black carp very much and went to see it every time she saw it.
This is because the black carp does not come out of the water at normal times, nor does it appear together with other red koi carp. Every time she goes there, she will see him.
Will this black carp be the same in this life as it was in previous lives, and will it still be friends with her?
With that thought in mind, she walked briskly to the east courtyard.
It is almost uninhabited, so there are few servants there at normal times.
Mary Kinson looked around, but there was no body, only a large pond.
The green pond is just as it is in memory. It is not yet the time of lotus bloom, and only a few lotus leaves are floating.
When Mary Kinson went to the shore, she found a smooth stone and sat down. She raised her hand to rest her chin, smelled the abandoned odour with a faint smell of fish, and looked at the pond.
Her figure reflected on the green water, which soon attracted many red koi fish.
But she did not have any fish food with her, so they turned around first and dove elsewhere.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
About two minutes later, the ripples on the surface of the water suddenly rippled and something slowly showed its head.
It’s a black carp! It swims right up to her, holding on as it approaches the shore, sticking its head out at her and keeping its mouth open and closed, which is very cute.
Mary Kinson’s pupils light up and the corners of her lips lift involuntarily.
At that moment, a sharp voice sounds from behind her, “Mary Kinson!”
The black carp jumped up with a splash and turned away from the depths of the pond.
Mary Kinson unconsciously emitted a sound, “Uh…”
I have not seen enough yet!
“Mary Kinson! How did you sneak into our family mansion?!”
The voice is slightly pointed and some ears perk up. Mary Kinson immediately thinks of who it is, and her eyes suddenly drop.
Mother-in-law?
Oh, no, it’s a mother-in-law from a past life.
Mary Kinson turned languidly, a pair of handsome fox eyel, hooked with a bit of world-weary aesthetic sensibilities with a slightly careless gleam.
“It’s a small world, is not it.” She casually withdrew her eyes, slowly changed her posture, and sat down on the stone to continue searching for black carp.
Emma arrogantly emerged, her face full of disgust, “I really did see a ghost! Are you a mangy dog? You still will not leave after setting a trap for us for a lot of money! Do you know that my son has returned to the family and wants to molest him again?”
