Chapter 652: Rose Manor (28)
Wen Cha heard this, and reached out to hug his neck.
"Of course, my lord, we will all be alive."
The young viscount did not reply, but his hand gripped her waist tightly.
In the afternoon, Ansel returned to the castle, where he needed to discuss with some of the wealthy merchants in the factory about dealing with the virus that might have been infected.
Oncha reminds him that he can keep more cats in the castle and factory.
Anse Air liked the offer and immediately asked him to do it.
But the wealthy businessmen who worked together were a little nervous.
You know, in the eyes of believers, cats are witches' pets, it has magic beyond people's imagination, will do many evil things for witches, endangering personal safety, so in the United Kingdom, it is forbidden to have cats, which makes Europe rampant rats, rats can not find food, can only attack people, thus causing the so-called Black Death.
Wealthy businessmen are afraid that keeping cats will cause problems for the factory, but Ansair doesn't care about this, and now that the society is in turmoil, who in power has the spare time to care whether he keeps cats or not?
Those who opposed him were kicked out of the circle of cooperation by Ansel, his wealth has long surpassed that of all the rich businessmen in Yorkshire, he can not have a partner, this matter cannot be done by other rich businessmen.
Soon, cats of different breeds were raised in the factory and castle, and they were very lively and active every day in search of mice to drive away them.
Time passed quickly, and when the grass and trees were budding, the leading knight finally found the peasants who had escaped, probably because of the low temperature and poor air circulation in winter, and only eight people had the Black Death, and they were afraid of being caught, so they hid in the suburbs, and when they were found, some of them had been burned to death by their companions.
The rest of the people, the knights locked up for several days, and when they saw that there was no illness, they were all released.
The viscount was so pleased with the news that he gave the rest of the reward to the knight, and the matter was over.
The leading knight, holding the check, said to Anse Air with some excitement that if he needed help in the future, he could continue to look for them.
The young viscount smiled and answered softly.
Although he looks down on these guys who take advantage of the fire to rob, it is inevitable that there will be times when they are used, and hypocrisy and wrongdoing are things that every gentleman is born with.
After the matter in the village was settled, Wen Cha breathed a sigh of relief, and she stayed with Linda for ten days, and after finding that she was not infected, she returned to the castle under the orders of Anse El and appealed.
That night, the young viscount sat on a chair in the study with her in his arms and read a book, and they were all lucky to enjoy the silence and comfort of the moment.
Because of the timely control, there was no widespread plague outbreak in Yorkshire in the south, and a beautiful spring came as scheduled.
The roses in the manor began to sprout, and the gardeners were busy in the fields.
Wen Cha sat by the window with Anse El with tea, she looked at the gardeners, and asked curiously, "Why is it called Rose Manor here?"
The young viscount glanced at her, "How did you think of this?" ”
"Presumably, the estates of other nobles are named after them."
Anse El smiled at her honesty, "I'm afraid this goes back a long way. ”
“……”
"In the castle of the Rose Manor, there lived a young and beautiful Lady Rose," said Ansel quietly, "she was the daughter of a duke, and she fell in love with the former viscount at first sight, and stooped down to marry him, and the viscount was moved by her friendship, so she planted the manor of the castle with roses that she liked, and named the manor after the roses."
"It's such a touching story." Hearing this, Wen Cha sighed softly.
"No," Ansel continued, shaking his head, "the story ends with Madame Rose falling in love with the Viscount because she fell in love with her brother and, shortly after marrying the Viscount, gave birth to a deformed baby, and the Viscount could not accept the fact that from the roof of the castle, she threw both Madame Rose and the child into the flowers and fell to their deaths. ”
"The blood stained the white roses in the garden, and the blood of the viscount surged out, turning the white rose, which represented purity, into a red rose full of temptation and unkindness, and the rose estate became famous."
"For many years after that, no one wanted to come and live here, and then the viscount inherited it to my father, and one of his lovers, who liked roses, asked the king to renovate the estate."
Rose Estate.
After hearing this, Wen Cha wondered: "But, isn't the red rose the girl's favorite flower?"
"Indeed," Ansel did not deny this, "its enthusiasm and sincerity are also genuine. "Otherwise, the viscount would not have been martyred.
Deception is true, betrayal is true, affection and joy are also true, and the world is so contradictory.
"It's a poignant story." Wen Cha sighed lightly.
Anse El smiled slightly, "This only says two things. ”
"What?"
"Madame Rose is too stupid, and that Viscount is also deserved."
Wen Cha couldn't help but laugh, "If Madame Rose hadn't deceived him, the ending of the story might have been different." ”
"No if," Ansel said calmly, "she's just paying for her stupidity." ”
Wen Cha shrunk her neck, "I don't even dare to look directly at those beautiful roses as you said." ”
Ansel smiled and shook her hand, "If you are afraid, you can talk to me in the study at night and hold candles." ”
"Still don't need to," Wen Cha hurriedly waved her hand, "I can't do without that soft quilt." ”
Ansel laughed, approached Wencha and said, "Then I can't do without you."
"My lord," Wen Cha pushed away his body that was getting closer and closer to him, "you better continue to read poetry to me." ”
"Okay." Anse El picked up the book that had been set aside and continued to read, Wen Cha looked at him with a face in his hand, his eyes gentle and quiet.
When the roses began to bloom, the young viscount finally fulfilled his previous promise and decided to take warm tea to hunt in the countryside.
This time, he was well prepared, not only did he bring a lot of knights, but he also wore two shotguns on his body, and even Wencha was given one, and Anse El also taught her how to use the gun.
Wen Cha secretly sighed for the trouble of going out, but she really wanted to go out once.
She hadn't been out of the castle since Linda had come to the manor, and all the opportunities to rest had stayed in the house with her younger siblings, and sometimes Ansel would come to join in the fun, as if she hadn't rested at all.
In the spring, Yorkshire is beautiful and quiet, and the green meadows along the way cover the fields like a green carpet, and the barren fields are also overgrown with weeds, which looks a little indescribable.
With the reins in one hand and Wen Cha's body in the other, Ansel led her towards the woods.
