Chapter 310 Heading straight to the Baron's country estate
After spending more than ten minutes and flipping through a few books, Ye Nai gave up and couldn't stand it from the beginning.
The wording is too obscure, every word is a new word that makes people stare, and they always use long sentences. Some paragraphs look like three lines, but there is no punctuation mark in the middle, which is a complete sentence. talk.
Popular novels were not much better, they also made her dizzy.
Obviously the content introduction is a popular romance, a group of men and women. You love me, I love him, he doesn’t love her, and she loves him, but it is terrible to read. The popular novels loved by the aristocrats also have aristocratic backgrounds. , the first chapter lays out the characters, and behind each character is a long list of names, family background, and titles.
Twenty pages, still in the first chapter, only characters appeared, not even a serious plot. After reading the second part, I forgot about the previous part, and Ye Nai gave up immediately.
She dug around and finally found the textbooks that the little witch had brought back, including witch literature, witch patterns, witch history, mathematics, astronomy, geography, basic alchemy, introduction to witch doctors, zoology, and botany. wait.
Ye Nai reclassified the textbooks by grade from the cover, and then slowly looked through the first-grade textbooks for each subject.
As she watched, she put down the textbook. The sentence structure was too complicated and she couldn't understand many words.
Finally, she turned her attention to the documents and letters collected from the study.
The handwriting is a bit sloppy and difficult to read, but it is easier to understand than the textbook. I can finally understand a few sentences even after guessing.
Ye Nai took out a bowl of cold translation mushrooms and ate them while reading. As she ate and looked at them, she found that reading was getting easier and easier. The words and grammar were very simple, and the documents were page after page. Read faster and faster.
When she took out the textbook again, there were indeed a few more words that she could understand, but the complex sentence structure had not changed. It was better to read it. A long descriptive sentence had to be repeated. You have to read it several times before you can vaguely understand the meaning, which may not be correct.
Ye Nai gave up decisively and put the book box into the space. She no longer embarrassed herself and concentrated on reading the handwritten documents.
This immersive reading lasted more than three hours, and my eyes were so tired. The benefit was of course a substantial increase in vocabulary.
The written language used in the handwritten documents is very simple, and the sentences are all short. It is rare for a document to have a few long sentences from beginning to end. It is very friendly to people who rely on translators to understand foreign languages. Ye Nai feels that the answer is Blue Star can be heavily promoted as experience.
And after reading more, I also found something interesting. Whether it is a knight's wife or a baroness, the man in charge is on the battlefield and the heir is still young. The daily affairs of the management of the territory and the household affairs are all on the lady alone. On her shoulders, she looked like a strong woman, but it was a pity that she became a prisoner before she even had time to show it.
No matter how powerful they are, they only have one mouth. In the face of Ye Nai's absolute force, no matter how smart their brains are, they will not work.
After packing her things, Ye Nai took out the folding bed and placed it on the floor. She was not interested in the beds of the ladies. Who knew what their hygiene habits were like. When going out, it is better to use your own things for peace of mind.
Ye Nai had a good night's sleep. In the early morning, as soon as the fish-belly white sky was reflected on the window, she opened her eyes.
After washing up quickly, Ye Nai made a big move, from the attic directly to the avenue outside the city.
The farmers who were also waiting to enter the city to do business at the gate of the city screamed in fright when they saw a man in strange clothes suddenly appear.
Ye Nai got into the off-road vehicle, set up the action camera, and walked away, leaving the foreseeable chaos of Darklay City behind.
According to what the butler said last night, it would take three to five days to go to Malabene Castle, which usually takes three to five days on horseback. Ye Nai stepped on the accelerator and went straight to the baron's manor in the countryside.
The mansion in the city has limited land and limited storage capacity. Bulk supplies such as grain, cloth, salt, and sugar are all stored in the granary of the manor.
This was the only road outside the city. Ye Nai drove from early morning to noon, and finally saw the fork in the road that the housekeeper mentioned and the road sign with the noble emblem.
She turned the corner and continued driving. After another hour, she finally saw the vast country house. She drove in without hesitation and knocked down all the servants and soldiers who tried to stop her on the road with spores.
The mansion does not have a large iron gate in the front yard like the mansions in the city. The off-road vehicle parked directly in front of the house. Two male servants who were looking after the house walked out shivering from inside the door. The maids hid behind the door and peeked, not daring to Show your face.
"Hello, dear guest, do you have anything important to do here? Our master's family is in the city of Dacre, and this is an old house that we only come back to during the New Year."
The male servants who came out were all older, on par with the butler yesterday, and they saluted politely.
"I know." Ye Nai stepped out of the car and without any nonsense, directly lifted the Baroness out of the space and let her upper body lie on the front hood of the car.
“Ah!”
The male servants gave a short scream, and then they all lost their voices, fell to their knees on the ground, and looked up at Ye Ye in panic. Nai, salute more devoutly, over and over again.
As soon as their tall figures knelt down, they were still at eye level with Ye Nai.
Ye Nai looked at them indifferently.
"You are just temporarily silent. Go and bring everyone out of the house. Don't wait for me to do it myself."
The two male servants stood up in a hurry, but did not wait for them to walk through the door. , the maids and low-level male servants from inside the door filed out, standing on both sides in an extremely stiff and meek manner.
Ye Nai then recovered the voices of the two male servants.
“Everyone is here?”
"Yes, great witch. All the servants in the house are here. The soldiers, gardeners and others are outside. Do you want to call them back?"
"No, please identify the person. Is that one of you?" "Baroness?"
Ye Nai pointed to Mrs. Dacre, who was lying on the hood of the car.
The male and female servants craned their necks and took a look, then nodded.
“Yes, it’s our Baroness.”
"Okay, as servants, you know that the Baron is fighting on the battlefield, right?"
"Yes, we know..."
"Oh, my God!"
“Are you, are you an enemy?!”
The servants who can work in the noble mansion are not stupid, they react immediately one after another, especially when someone shouts, they are even more uncomfortable. Dare to move.
"You are servants, I won't kill you, but you don't block my way, understand?"
"I understand, I understand."
Both male and female servants are like quails, He hunched his shoulders and nodded repeatedly.
“I heard that this manor stores grain, cloth, sugar, salt and other bulk supplies. Is it true?”
“It’s true, the warehouse is at the back.”
"Are there any valuables in the house? Gold, silver, utensils, precious furniture, etc.?"
"No, the country house only stores food, and the valuables are in the mansion in the city. They will come back for a few months at the end of the year. Bring it back and bring it back when you return to the city in the spring.”
"Okay, someone will take me to get the stored food. You can take inventory of the things in the house. After I look at them, the rest is yours."
"Thank you, great witch, thank you Kindness.”
