The scenery of this lake area is so good, I guess a lot of people regard this place as an attraction, the front of the inquiries.
Paige stood and stopped in front of the door and glanced back at Enrico.
Enrico was standing there, sporting a beard and glaring at her with resentful eyes.
When he saw her look, he didn’t look good as he removed the shield from her collar and took several steps backward, which wouldn’t work if he was slightly away from her.
“…”
Paige raised her hand and pointed to her head.
Enrico continued to glare at her resentfully for several seconds before viciously pressing the brim of his fish-smelling hat down over the top half of his face.
That’s as depressing as it gets.
Paige withdrew her eyes helplessly and prepared to ring the doorbell, lifting her hand she was struck dumb, only to see that there was no doorbell beside the door.
She had to raise her hand to knock.
Her hands and feet were weak, and as she punched down and breathed a few times sharply, the door was motionless and soft.
“Bang!”
Suddenly, the door was slammed with a large movement.
Paige looked down, watching a rock hit the door and roll silently back to her feet.
There was no movement inside the door.
“Bang.”
“Bang.”
“Bang.”
Enrico threw several rocks in a row from behind.
Through the door, Paige heard a rush of footsteps coming.
“…”
Well, it was a good thing it was him, otherwise she wouldn’t even be able to knock on this door, let alone get the token in.
She smiled and teased, “Good job boatman.”
Enrico grunted behind her.
The door was opened from the inside, and the middle-aged woman with long coiffed hair stood in the doorway, looking her up and down with impatience, “This young lady, we’re a private mansion, we can’t visit.”
Paige glanced at her eyes, not grayish pupils, wearing an extremely ordinary shirt and pants, her hands were rough, a long time worker.
Was it one of the Davis family maids?
“Hello, I’m not here to visit.”
Paige said, taking Annie’s jade tag out of her pocket and putting it up.
At the sight of the sign, the woman blushed and stared incredulously, reaching for it.
Paige hastily took a step back and used all her strength to protect the jade sign in her hand, “This is mine, don’t you touch it.”
“How did you get this?” The woman looked at her in shock, her breath tightening.
Paige candidly introduced herself, “I’m Annie’s daughter-in-law and I’m here to visit.”
At that, the woman was even more shocked and looked at her for a while, “You … are Ms. Annie’s daughter-in-law?”
Paige was about to nod her head when the woman asked again eagerly, “And what about Ms. Annie?”
“…”
What about Miss Annie?
Paige was stunned by the question, how did that sound like she didn’t realize that Annie had …
Before she could speak, the woman looked behind her again and frowned, “Did you send her back?”
“Uh-huh.” Enrico responded with a deliberately thick and deep voice as she lowered her head.
At that, the woman sighed and said, “No wonder you’re not going back after dropping someone off.”
“…”
Paige listened in disbelief as the woman looked over at her and said with a complicated face, “Come in with me.”
“Good.” Paige nodded.
She was not at all sure about THE Davis family, so she could only take one step at a time.
She followed her inside, the sound of Enrico’s footsteps following behind her.
Paige didn’t look back and continued to walk inside when the middle-aged woman next to her stopped and turned back to Enrico with a surprised look on her face.
“…”
Paige’s face looks as normal, but her breath is gently held back.
Recognize it?
The middle-aged woman looked at Enrico and sighed again, sighing with emotion, “After so many years, the family has long since forgiven you, but you are just not willing to step into the house, if it wasn’t for this young lady, you are afraid that you would still refuse to come back, right?”
This is said …
A boatman and Annie seem to have had some other interactions.
This is a little alarming in disguise.
Paige did not make a sound, and her heart was nervous, but she heard Enrico say calmly not far behind her, “Always come back.”
A very raspy voice.
The tone is full of vicissitudes, like a middle-aged man who has experienced the world.
This acting skill, if he mixes with the acting circle, those actors can be deprived of living.
Sure enough, the middle aged woman did not notice that the boatman in front of her had changed into a person, but instead sighed and sighed again and again, “You ah … go, go to meet the family.”
The middle aged woman did not put up any defense led them to walk in.
Once inside, on both sides is a large fruit forest, the leaves on the trees are tender and green, and all colors of fruits are dotted in between, and the whole way is a fruity fragrance.
“Auntie, what is your name?” Paige and the middle-aged woman walked forward side by side as she opened her mouth.
At her words, the middle-aged woman glanced at her, through the measuring, seems not to adapt to her such a sudden appearance of people, for a while before saying, “You call me Francine is good, my family followed the Davis family to avoid living here for hundreds of years, I am in charge of this piece of fruit forest, so this knocking sound is only heard by me. ”
Paige nodded and introduced herself, “My name is Paige.”
It was strange that neither the boatman nor the middle-aged woman recognized her, didn’t they watch TV?
The Davis family is situated on a vast lake, with a picturesque view, stone paths curving in all directions, flowers, trees and fabrics all over the place, and rocks and water features not far behind.
All the way over, the road is full of stone pillar lamps, a modern street lamp are not.
Paige finally couldn’t help but ask, “Francine, you guys use lamps and candles?”
Upon hearing this, Francine bluntly said, “I know what you’re going to ask, the entire THE Davis family doesn’t have electricity.”
“…”
Good.
It’s not that they don’t watch TV, it’s that they don’t even have electricity.
This wasn’t avoiding the world, this was isolation.
The further in she went, the more doubt grew in Paige’s mind, and through the breathtaking scenery, a large expanse of farmland appeared in her line of sight.
In the reclaimed farmland, a group of plainly dressed people were rolling up their pants and bending over to plant crops, men and women, old and young, talking and laughing as they planted.
From time to time, laughter came from the fields.
“Eh? Who is that?”
A boy around seven or eight years old stepped on a foot of mud and raised his head, colliding with Paige’s line of sight, and his pair of grayish eyes immediately revealed great suspicion.
At that, the people in the field all looked up, each looking at her and Enrico in surprise, smiles frozen on their faces.
Paige looked over to see that some of these people had eyes that were gray and some that weren’t.
A man of about thirty stood up straight, handed the boy the canola in his hand, and walked toward them, his eyes darting from Paige to Enrico and finally landing on Francine as he asked, “Francine, what’s going on?”
“Master Armen, this Miss Paige claims to be Miss Annie’s daughter-in-law, and she’s carrying a token.”
Francine stood there and answered honestly.
At those words, Armen’s face changed, his grayish eyes looked straight at Paige and asked forcefully, “Who did you say you were?”
