I was a god in the 18th century

Chapter 258 Farmhouse

When Jane Austen got off the carriage, the enthusiastic Xia Qingdai gave her a kiss, and then said excitedly: "Jane, did you know? Mozart wrote me a song "To Xia Qingdai"!"

"Oh, that's really good, congratulations!" Jane Austen was infected by Xia Qingdai's happy mood, and a relaxed and cheerful smile appeared on her face, "I think the sound of the piano upstairs is Mr. Owen's playing Bar?"

"Yes, yes." As soon as Xia Qingdai finished saying this, she discovered that another person had stepped out of the carriage, it was Mr. Austin (Pastor Austin's eldest son).

The other party took off his hat and saluted, and Xia Qingdai curtsied in return.

"Yesterday, Mr. Owen invited me to go hunting with him. The carriage just happened to come, so I took a hitchhike." Mr. Austin explained.

Xia Qingdai smiled and nodded, inviting the two brothers and sister to go upstairs together.

At Xia Qingdai's strong request, Owen played "To Xia Qingdai" from beginning to end.

But when another parish priest and several brothers and sisters of the Brown family came to Fortress, Owen firmly left the piano and gave it to the governess, Miss Bai.

Miss Bai's piano playing level is certainly not comparable to Owen's, but everyone's thoughts are not on music at this time.

Since this is the territory of Fucui Villa, the ladies naturally take Xia Qingdai's opinion as the first priority.

Amy, the eldest daughter of the Brown family, first praised Xia Qingdai, and then asked her to help transform the hat.

This hat is pretty and playful, and also offers great sun protection. The reasonable tail design makes the hat not press the roses inserted in her hairstyle at all. The flowers are looming under the soft lace, full of pastoral scenery.

"Oh! Dear Xia, you really have endless fantastic ideas. I didn't know you could change your hat like this! That's great!"

The men couldn't wait to go hunting, and the women wanted to enjoy picnics and outings as soon as possible.

Xia Qingdai told them that they bought it at Bill's department store in the town, but it had been processed and transformed.

This made many girls envious and asked her which store she bought this hat from.

A group of people put on various broad-brimmed straw hats, carried baskets, and walked towards the orchard first.

Xia Qingdai wore a hat decorated with damask and lace, with a transparent veil in front. She took a piece of rag made of sun protection clothing and put it in the castle, and asked a maid who was good at sewing to make it.

September is the best tourist season in the UK. The weather is pleasant, the sunshine is abundant, the forests are dyed, the ground is full of fallen leaves, the water is blue, the sky is blue, and the scenery is picturesque.

But today Xia Qingdai is not interested in such high-volume activities as hunting. The military training had just ended, and she hoped to pick as much fruit as she wanted in the orchard, lie in the hammock in the woods, listen to the sound of Miss Bai's harp, and enjoy the quiet beauty of autumn leaves.

Every season, gentlemen get together to hunt. Ladies can also join in if they have the equestrian skills and courage.

Her sister Marianne followed up with the same request.

Xia Qingdai shrugged and said, "I'm just raising an idea. In fact, my maid does all the sewing. Maybe you can ask her opinion directly."

After saying that, Xia Qingdai stopped paying attention to the Brown sisters. She held the basket, took Jane Austen's arm, and quickened her pace, leaving the two ladies in high heels behind.

The gentlemen and ladies also divided into two groups. They did not want to pick fruits, but only wanted to go hunting. Naturally, pastors and pastor's sons cannot afford to keep their own horses. So the horse used for hunting this time was Owen's.

With the "True God" feeding the Fucui Villa, let alone the horses raised in the stables on the farm, they could afford to double the number of horses. Not only fodder, but also apple chunks and bean cakes are fed to the horses every day.

The horses that everyone wanted to use today were delivered early in the morning by people from the farm, and now they are having extra meals in the stables of the castle.

Although the Brown brothers had their own horses, they were willing to go with everyone to the stables to see Owen's horses.

Before they saw the horse, when everyone passed the garage, they were first blinded by a big red sports car parked there.

"Oh my God! What kind of car is this?"

Owen had just received a report from the butler David and knew that this was the new tram that Xia Qingdai had put in. When he saw the sports car, he said calmly without showing any emotion on his face: "This is my cousin's car, the tram."

Mr. Brown shouted: "Oh! I know about electricity. Franklin in America drew thunder and lightning from the sky! But as far as I know, human civilization has not been able to borrow electricity from the sky, at least not in Europe. I have traveled around Europe this year and have never heard of it. Which big city has a tram? Owen, this red car was also given by your family’s patron saint, right?”

"Yes, you are right."

As Irving finished speaking, there was a sound of breathing accompanied by "God" and "True God" all around.

Xia Qingdai, who was picking blueberries in the blueberry forest, suddenly felt refreshed and unknowingly took a big gulp of the supplement.

After picking a basket of blueberries, a group of ladies carried the baskets and walked towards the oak forest talking and laughing.

At the end of the oak forest outside the courtyard, there is a small hill that can be climbed up to see far away. There is also a small lake on the edge, which is a good place for autumn outings and picnics.

Everyone unanimously decided to go there.

Miss Bai suggested that maybe they could bring the harp and play it in nature, which would definitely be interesting.

This proposal was immediately approved by everyone. But no one was willing to walk a few hundred meters back to the castle to get the piano, and they all said they couldn't walk.

Finally, Xia Qingdai used a few cut vitamin gummy candies in her bag to ask the children playing with weeds on the roadside to run errands, and notified the servants to transport the harp to the hill behind the oak forest.

The children happily took the candy and ran to the castle.

Marianne looked at the happy backs of the children and said with a smile: "Dear Xia, you are so patient with these farmers' children."

Xia Qingdai smiled sweetly: "The children are very cute."

"Oh, I can't stand the noise of children. Sometimes I am even disturbed by the noise of naughty children outside the window and cannot take a nap. Sometimes they are louder than chirping birds."

No one answered this sentence, and no one had time to enjoy the autumn scenery.

After a while, the group finally passed through the long oak forest and arrived at the hill.

Xia Qingdai stood on it, opened her arms and took a deep breath. Then she looked down at the lake not far away and reflected the shadows of the sycamore trees. She felt relaxed and happy.
