The ranch Catherine said was twenty or thirty kilometers away from Britney's villa, and Xia Nuanxin, accompanied by one of Catherine's aunts, bumped around in the car for half a day before finally arriving at her destination.

The pasture is surrounded by vast fields and meadows, but because it is winter and the weather is cold, the bare branches and ground are covered with white snow, and many free-range cattle and sheep can only be seen walking in the vast sky.

But just looking at the present scene, it's not hard to imagine what it will be like to be here once spring comes.

Xia Nuanxin hugged the child and got out of the car in the howling cold wind.

Because she was still in confinement, her whole body was wrapped in all kinds of warm clothes, revealing only the delicate facial features on her face.

She twitched her nose, red from the cold, and took a closer look at the place where she was about to live.

"Miss Xia, it's too cold, don't delay, let's get into the house."

Catherine's aunt's name was Emma, and she was an old woman in her fifties.

Although she was dressed luxuriously, she didn't have the kind of domineering style that those ladies had, and the whole person was very easy-going, Catherine asked her to come over, just to let Xia Nuanxin adapt to the climate and life here as soon as possible.

Also coming with Xia Nuanxin was the gold medal confinement sister-in-law Anna.

Anna was reluctant to come to such a remote place, but Xia Nuanxin considered that the child was still too young and she had to adapt to the new environment, and there might not be a way to take care of both ends at the beginning, so she increased Anna's salary before she agreed to accompany her.

However, in this way, Xia Nuanxin's already not very rich wallet has shrunk a little.

But the good thing is that ...... Now she's about to get a job.

Xia Nuanxin raised her eyes to look at the huge pasture surrounded by a fence wall in front of her, and a soft smile spread out at the corner of her mouth.

Baby...... We're going to live here for the time being.

"Miss Xia, come in." Emma waved to Xia Nuan under the eaves, and her face looked even more anxious than her, "Didn't you Chinese say that you can't blow the wind during confinement." When you're settled, I'll rush back to serve our Catherine. ”

The caretaker in charge of the ranch was called Richard, and as Catherine said, he was a shrewd little old man.

Even in such cold weather, he wore a meticulous formal suit under the plush turtle, and in this kind of room where no one would visit or go out, he still wore a neat bow tie.

His eyes are small and narrow, and he has two mustaches under his nose, which makes him very shrewd at first glance.

"You were recommended by Miss Catherine?" Richard's beard moved, and he glanced up and down at Xia Nuanxin.

"Hello, Mr. Richard. I've heard that you're missing a storekeeper. ”

Richard grinned, pulled out a cane from the edge of the table, supported himself to his feet, and walked to the side shelf to grope up and down.

"Catherine always likes to shove people at me. Even a milky little girl like you was sent to be a warehouse keeper...... It's better for me to recruit a skilled one in town. ”

"Sir, I'm good at tidying up, and I trust Miss Catherine's vision, and I think I'm up to the job." Xia Nuanxin raised her eyes as she spoke, only to notice that Richard's legs were of different lengths, and he had to rely on crutches to move.

Catherine's aunt Emma squeezed her eyes at Xia Nuan, and whispered: "Richard has a strange temper, sometimes he doesn't even buy Catherine's account, but he is disgusting and kind, as long as you find a way to get along with him, your life here will not be sad." ”

Xia Nuan nodded knowingly.

At this time, Richard turned around with a long string of jingling keys, his small eyes swept the child in Xia Nuan's arms, and instantly raised half of his eyebrows: "It's a little bit again...... This has just left a noisy furry child, and a baby less than a month old, Catherine really thought that I was a shelter. ”

With Emma's suggestion, Xia Nuanxin decided not to take Richard's words to heart, she took two steps out of the way and promised: "I will try to keep the child quiet, please rest assured." ”

Richard snorted very disdainfully, took two steps towards the door, and looked back to see that Xia Nuanxin hadn't caught up yet, so he urged a little impatiently: "Why are you still standing stupidly?" Could it be that as soon as you come, you will grab a house with me? ”

Xia warmed her heart for a moment, and suddenly came back to her senses, Richard was going to take her to her residence.

So this interview ...... Is it so easy?

Xia Nuanxin tilted her head, she thought that she would at least make a few accounts or ask a few related questions.

This Richard is really a weirdo.

Richard took them out of the door, and outside the door, a small van was parked for them to patrol the ranch, and Richard took the lead in getting into the driver's seat and signaled Xia Nuanxin to get into the car with a cold look.

Xia Nuanxin glanced at Richard's legs and feet, and turned to Emma with some hesitation.

Emma shook her head and told Xia Nuan that Chard could do it, and Xia Nuanxin followed Emma and got into the van.

The car drove for about five minutes and stopped in front of a warehouse that was more than 200 square meters.

With shaking hands, Richard opened the squeaky door of the warehouse.

"Originally, it was electric, but the weather was too cold, and the roller skating in charge of driving it was frozen in snow, and no workers had time to repair it for the time being."

Richard muttered endlessly, and brought Xia Nuanxin and the others into the warehouse.

This is a very large warehouse, you can't see the end at a glance, you can only see that there are many compartments, the closest one to them is a constant temperature room, because it is closed, Xia Nuanxin still doesn't know what is in it.

Richard took Xia Nuanxin and his party around and walked to the inside of the warehouse, and then opened the door of a cubicle, and as soon as the door opened, a warm current that made people comfortable hit his face, making Xia Nuanxin's tense body suddenly relax.

It was a small 2 bedroom, the house was a bit old, but it was clearly clean. I don't know if I was notified in advance or for some reason, the fireplace in the house has been heated up beforehand, so the ice and snow inside the house and outside have become two extremes.

"You'll live here from now on, and someone will come and hand over the warehouse with you tomorrow. If I find out that you are not up to the job, I am afraid that I will ask you to leave here. ”

Xia Nuan nodded busily.

After Richard left, Emma also said that she was going to visit her old friend and left first, Xia Nuanxin simply cleaned up the house, and found that the cleanliness of the house was not just on the surface, the corners and corners were spotless, and there was no need to clean it at all, so she sat down on the sofa.

The furnishings in the room are very simple, two very small bedrooms, each with a bed, a desk, and a wardrobe; A sofa in the living room, a fireplace, and a TV from some age; Then there is a bathroom and a kitchen.

Although it is simple, the sparrow is small and has all kinds of organs. For Xia Nuanxin, the current conditions are already good. At least, she doesn't have to pay expensive rent.

Lying on the sofa, Xia Nuanxin was about to fall asleep in a daze, when the mobile phone suddenly vibrate.

In order not to disturb the child's rest, Xia Nuanxin deliberately turned off the bell, and at this time she was suddenly awakened, and when she touched it, she saw that it was Qiu Yating.

"Mom?" Xia Nuanxin's voice was a little hoarse, and she rubbed her eyes and said.

"You dead child, have you forgotten your mother when you have a child, right? It's been almost two weeks since I gave birth, and I didn't even give me a call! Qiu Yating's mouth was a series of roars, which had nothing to do with her usual elegant demeanor.

Xia Nuanxin took the phone away slightly, frowned and waited for Qiu Yating to finish roaring before getting closer again, her face was full of helplessness, and the rare little drowsiness was also startled by this roar without a trace.

"Aren't I busy......" Xia Nuanxin grinned.

"What are you busy with? Isn't it confinement in bed just after giving birth? Don't call me at this time, wait until the child is full moon, and then you will really be busy! ”

Xia Nuanxin responded with promises, and repeatedly promised that she would call more in the future, and Qiu Yating finally gave up.

The company's affairs were enough for Qiu Yating to worry about, and Xia Nuanxin didn't want her to worry about herself anymore, so she didn't tell Qiu Yating about her current situation.

"Hey, did you pick a name? Hurry up and take a picture for my grandmother to see......" Qiu Yating was eager to see her grandson, and her mood almost ran through the microphone to Xia Nuanxin.

Xia Nuanxin couldn't cry or laugh: "I haven't had time to take it yet, he's asleep now, I'll take a picture and send it to you later......"

Qiu Yating nodded and asked Xia Nuanxin about her current situation, telling her not to go to the ground during the confinement period, what to eat and what not to eat, etc., Xia Nuanxin's eyes were pantothenic.

Who else cares so much about you except from your own parents?

It's just that Xia Nuanxin may not be able to confinement quietly.

She sniffled, suppressed her fluctuating emotions, and suddenly hissed and asked, "Mom...... Company & Holmes ...... Have you been working together lately? ”

Qiu Yating was obviously stunned when she heard this, and then she became angry: "You have a child, and Qiao Yu's child has been born, why are you still thinking about this Huo Beixiao?" It's so unbelievable! ”

Xia Nuanxin subconsciously defended: "I ...... I didn't...... And, I've said it many times, kid...... It's not Qiao Yu's. ”

Qiu Yating thought she was joking when Xia Nuanxin said this before, but today, after listening to it, she was silent for a long time, and finally, when Xia Nuanxin had already hung up the phone, she asked faintly:

"This kid ...... It can't be Huo Beixiao's, right? ”

Xia Nuan's heart twitched, and he hurriedly interrupted: "Mom, I'll hang up first, and the child will cry again when he wakes up, I'll go and see." ”

After speaking, Xia Nuanxin didn't wait for Qiu Yating to react, so she hung up the phone first.

After sitting on the sofa for a while, Xia Nuanxin suddenly remembered something. She took the handbag she had placed on the table, and searched like crazy with her hair down, but she couldn't find what she wanted.

She was in a hurry, and turned the bag upside down, everything fell out of the small bag, and a glittering white gold necklace fell into her thin white palm.
