Contract Marriage With Mysterious President

Chapter 280 Inspected Village

Richard handed Amy a cup. But Amy found it not hers. She said to Richard, "It isn't my cup, Mr. Carter.

Mine is a bottle with mineral water."

"Don't drink much cold water, Amy. I get warm and clean water here. And this cup is new." Richard

didn't look back but talked about that warm water.

Amy looked at the cup without any question. How didn't she think of bringing warm water here? Having

thought that the destination wouldn't be far away, she dumped two bottles of mineral water in the car.

Surely, it was uncomfortable to drink cold water at this moment.

Amy lifted the lid of the cup in which the water was still steaming. She poured out and had a drink of

water which was warm and sweet.

It was brown sugar boiled water. Amy felt very comfortable when having it. She drank a few more. She

really wanted to show gratitude to Richard. But since Richard didn't say anything to her, she gave up

the idea. Both Richard and Amy didn't speak to each other in these two hours.

A sudden brake woke Amy up from a sleep. She rubbed her eyes and saw a thin blanket left on her

body. She was sure that it wasn't her car's belonging. She had no idea when this blanket came to her. It

seemed that she had fallen asleep heavily.

"Here we are. Let's get off the car." Richard parked his car and got off. He opened the car door for Amy.

Amy was still sleepy. She looked around and found a piece of green. She certainly felt very easy.

After getting off the car, Amy took a deep breath. The air here was absolutely clean. She breathed in

the air from her nose to her lung. Then, she slowly breathed out the carbon dioxide. She felt her mind

clearer and her body eased instantly.

"It isn't bad here, is it, Miss. Newell? Well, that is just the first impression. We will learn more about here

later." The deputy mayor said. His chubby face showed a flash of glow.

"Yeah. It isn't bad." Amy replied without any hesitation. At her first glance, she had loved this place.

"You must be tired after a long journey. Why not dine with me in my home? My wife has finished

cooking the meal. Come to my place, everyone." The village chief greeted warmly to everyone.

"Where shall we live tonight?" That was Amy's first concern.

"I have arranged a very tidy place for you, Mr. Carter and Miss Newell. You will be satisfied." The

village chief gave an answer quickly on hearing Amy's question. These people in front of him were

important guests. If he had a good relationship with them, villagers here must get richer and richer.

Amy set her mind at rest when hearing a place for them to sleep, especially when she heard it was a

clean place. She took her own bag and followed the deputy mayor and the village chief. Richard then

followed them closely.

After five years, Richard saw Amy dressed in black every time. At most, she would change into the

grey. It seemed that she wouldn't prefer to try bright-colored ones. However, she was so beautiful that

any costume's color suited her. Especially when it comes to her black clothes, a aura of mystery was

given out.

When turning a corner, the group reached village chief's home. His home was very spacious. It was

hard to figure out how many rooms there were in his house. But there seemed to be quite numerous

rooms.

Lots of crops were hung in his large yard. There were also some yellow rice, red peppers and white

garlic hanging on his eave. The eave was beautifully decorated.

The place in which they had meals was called "hall", where the ancestors of the village chief's family

were served.

His round wooden tables were already laden with dishes, surrounded by long benches in the shape of

bars. Each of the benches could be sat by two people.

The village chief also invited the respected people in the village to accompany the deputy mayor, Amy

and Richard. There were eight people here in all. Each group of two was allocated one bench. When it

turned to Richard and Amy, there was only one bench left.

Both Richard and Amy came here for work, thus sitting down naturally. For Amy, there were a plenty of

dishes on the table she hadn't seen before. Therefore, village chief gave introductions about dishes

one by one.

"This is fried meat with fern. This is turtledove soup. This is stewed pork elbow with dandelion. And this Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

is..." Though these dishes didn't seemingly show colors, aromas and tastes, they looked plain and eye-

catching. It was tempting to see the green wild vegetables coupled with meat of such self-raised

animals as chickens, ducks and fishes.

Amy took a mouthful of bacon and sensed the fat bacon meat with flowing oil. The meat was really fat

and non-greasy, leaving her definitely endless aftertaste.

Amy had tried every dish on the table. She thought wild vegetables here were really delicious and

loved them at the bottom of her heart. She had eaten fine dishes every day in the city. That she

occasionally had these farmhouse meals really made her feel refreshing.

After meals, homegrown fruits were served. Red peaches, green plums, walnuts and peanuts were just

picked from trees in his own yard.

As Amy ate those organic foods, she felt happier and happier. These stuffs were absolutely delicious.

When Amy was having peanuts, Richard handed her peeled walnuts. No one could refuse those white

nuts.

Amy wasn't hypocritical. As Richard was willing to peel, she was glad to have them. She couldn't

remember how many walnuts she had had. When she finally stood up, she saw piles of walnut shells

scattered on the ground under Richard's feet.

"I've already arranged your place to live in. After this meal, you can go there and put things down. At

noon, you can have a rest. We will go up to the hill in the afternoon." The village chief said to three

people. Though there were many rooms in the village chief's house, there were many family members

of his. A big family was living there. There was only one guest room in his house, which was left for

deputy mayor to stay in temporarily.

Both Richard and Amy were scheduled to stay in secretary's house, which wasn't far away from village

chief's. There were two vacant and clean rooms in secretary's house. It was convenient as both toilet

and bathroom were near the door.

The two empty rooms, which were directly facing each other, had been ventilated. The secretary

brought them upstairs and asked them to choose rooms.

"You go first. I am not fussed." Amy said to Richard. Anyway, they were together in one house. It was

meaningless to make a choice between rooms.

"Well then, let's follow the rule of 'men on left side and women on right side'." Richard said coldly. He

then walked into the room on the left side. Amy carried her own things entering into the right room.

The room was very large. There was a big wooden bed with clean bedding in it. And it felt warm and

refreshing after being aired.

One would be sleepy after he got full. Though Amy had slept in a car for a while, a sense of sleepiness

still surged up.

But even though Amy got sleepy, she didn't forget to close the door. After closing the door, she put on

her pajamas. Then she covered her quilt and went to sleep.

There was a lot of stuff in Richard's bag. He brought the mosquito repellent, for Amy was afraid of

mosquitoes. He brought a lot of heat preservation things, for Amy couldn't eat cool stuff. It became his

habit to take care of her unnoticeably. She actually didn't take care of herself well. Richard had no idea

how she had survived in a foreign country for five years.
