An abandoned manor that no one visited all year round. Why would there be so many vehicles carrying a lot of goods (or people) passing by recently?
This was obviously not normal.
Zhai Yunsheng considered the safety of Jian Yiling and the child. He decided not to go to the manor for the time being.
"Let's find a place to stay nearby first," Zhai Yunsheng said. They turned around and went to a nearby town.
There was a small town on the way here that was suitable for them to stay.
After half an hour, the group of people returned to the small town that they had just passed by.
Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling stayed at the only hotel in the town.
After they stayed, they asked the local residents about the abandoned manor.
Only people who were over sixty years old knew something about the manor.
They knew that the original owner of the manor was a prominent family from the East. They had a pivotal position in the past.
When they asked about the decline of the family, no one could answer.
The fall of the Xie family happened too quickly. Without any warning, they disappeared from people's sight.
After Zhai Yunsheng finished asking about the situation, he returned to his room. As soon as he entered the room, he saw Jian Yiling feeding the little boy.
The little boy was very happy. He had a satisfied expression on his face.
Zhai Yunsheng's eyes darkened.
"Didn't you say to let the nanny feed him?" Zhai Yunsheng asked as he stared at Jian Yiling.
"And … And … It's growing …"
Jian Yiling muttered softly.
"Didn't the confinement nanny tell you that after a while, there won't be any more breast milk?"
As long as she didn't feed him, the milk would return.
"Mhmm. But I want to try. Zeze is very cute," Jian Yiling said as she looked at Zhai Yunsheng with sparkling eyes.
Her expression made Zhai Yunsheng unable to resist.
"Okay, okay. You can feed him."
After he finished speaking, Zhai Yunsheng turned over and got on the bed. He covered himself with the quilt and went to sleep.
After Jian Yiling finished feeding the child, the little boy fell asleep.
It was a big problem for other people's children to sleep. However, Jian Yiling's son was very worry-free. He ate and slept on his own.
Jian Yiling placed the child on the small bed next to her. After she covered him with the quilt, she crawled back into the bed with Zhai Yunsheng. Then, she carefully leaned against Zhai Yunsheng's back. She reached out and hugged Zhai Yunsheng from behind. She pressed her face against Zhai Yunsheng's back.
Of course, Zhai Yunsheng hadn't fallen asleep yet. He could feel Jian Yiling's movements behind him. It was both heartwarming and painful.

At night, the abandoned Xie family manor was brightly lit.
A group of oriental faces were busy in the manor.
They searched every nook and cranny of the manor for a piece of vellum.
The Situ Clan's Clan Master, Situ Zhong, personally came here to supervise the progress of the work.
They had been searching the manor for a week, but to no avail.
The Xie family's manor was too big. In addition to the castle, there was also a lake, as well as the woods and vineyards behind it. All of them belonged to the Xie family.
Since they did not know where the Xie family had hidden the items, they could only search blindly. One could imagine how heavy the workload was.
"Damn it, where did this family hide the things!" Si Tuzhong couldn't help but feel annoyed.
They had to strike while the Goodman family was still in the capital. That way, they would have the home advantage.
If the Goodman family and that compass went to O Continent, it would be troublesome for them to make a move.
