When the Wind is Sweet: The Fairy Tale of Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster-Chapter 915: It’s a Familiar Feeling
Peaceful days passed by again.
Jadepoint, The Xavier Estate, a magnificent and solemn Qing Dynasty building, felt like a paradise on earth inside.
Gia, after changing her prescription, gradually recovered physically, her spirit much improved, not at all like someone who had brushed with death’s door.
"Miss Gia, madam has sent you new clothes again. She says the fresh green suits your temperament well, and you can try them when you’re free." The maid, Lake, came in with a tray.
She beamed, holding a few new outfits on the tray, all tailored to Gia’s measurements by The Xavier Family’s tailor.
"I’ve made quite a few new clothes lately; there’s enough to wear." The girl tidying the bed turned her eyes at the sound, "My wardrobe is almost full. Where’s the madam?" Planning to have a word with her.
"Madam is entertaining guests today, probably doesn’t have time to see you." For some reason, the servants here also liked her very much, including Lake.
Mainly because the servants were kind, and Gia’s aura was positive.
"Alright then, I won’t bother her today." The girl finished making the bed and glanced outside, "The weather’s really nice today." Being inside so long made her yearn for freedom outside.
"Then why not go for a walk? Can you enjoy the breeze now?" Lake suggested.
At this moment, the elderly man in the house said, "Yes, you can."
"Great, the whole courtyard is part of this place, no guests will come over, Miss Gia can go for a walk, and I’ll clean your room."
"Alright, thank you."
And so, after putting the beautiful clothes into the closet, she came to Old Mr. Downey, "Grandpa, is there anything I can help with?" 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
"No, no, you should just enjoy the sun, take a walk in the courtyard, you can enjoy the breeze a little now." Old Mr. Downey said with a smile as he ground the traditional medicine into powder.
The girl was very happy, as if she could smell the scent of freedom.
She happily came to the doorway, with warm sunshine on her, her lips curved into a smile, slightly closed her eyes, and tilted her head up.
This was her first time stepping out of the room after waking up; Old Mr. Downey had said before that she couldn’t expose her head to the wind and needed to recuperate for a while, and she had obediently listened.
Therefore, being able to stand against the wind, feeling the sun’s touch, felt truly blissful!
Eyes open wide, the courtyard was lush and verdant, with pavilions and kiosks, pools and gardens, all set amongst the abundant green pines and cypresses, truly the pinnacle of a grand household.
Unknown flowers bloomed everywhere, red, yellow, white, and some butterflies fluttered elegantly.
Beside the rockery, there were blooming flower vines and a Brazilian Delonix regia, clusters of brilliant blossoms, the scenery was exceptionally beautiful.
Wearing a Chanel-style light jacket, Gia stepped out over the threshold, inhaling the sweet fragrance in the air, and walked to the center of the courtyard.
Warm sunlight bathed her as she slowly observed her surroundings.
The expression on her face transitioned from joy to puzzlement... Under the sunlight, her expression subtly changed.
Why did the sight of this courtyard, clearly first-time seen, feel so familiar?
The stone-paved winding path, the layout of this house, the rockery and pond’s position, seemed so familiar!
She attentively surveyed the scene, an inner doubt, was this really her first time here?
She must have been here before.
Before amnesia, what was her relationship with The Xavier Family? Did she really not know them?
Her gaze fell to a row of houses on the right, marble steps at the entrance, scarlet lacquered door rails gleamed, the twin dragons on the flying eaves vivid as if ready to soar into the sky.
She stepped toward this row of houses... the golden glazed tile roof under the sunlight appeared exceptionally bright.
