Reincarnation of Soul Cultivation 2

The arrival of Nia forced William to buy a small manor with several acres of vegetable fields and orchards to accommodate her and two maids.Fortunately, he has recently earned a lot of medical fees, so he can spend some money in a fair manner.

Of course, William couldn't bring Nia to live in the barracks. Even if the senior officers brought their family members to take up their posts, they bought houses outside the barracks to accommodate them.

Nor can they live in the hotel for a long time like the archaeological team funded by the imperial government, and the hotel will provide all board and lodging and other miscellaneous arrangements.After all, the hotel is full of people coming and going, and the turnover of people is very large, so it is not a place where you can live with peace of mind for a long time.

So William bought a house recommended by his colleagues, which was the house where the previous sheriff lived.The good thing about this house is that the interior decoration is perfect, and there is a yard with several acres of land outside.Moreover, the previous sheriff was a person who liked the countryside. Instead of planting flowers and plants in the yard, he hired local people to grow vegetables and fruit trees for him, and he also planted about an acre of local grapes.

The previous sheriff not only ate his own vegetables and fruits daily, but also made wine from his own grapes.Because the local grapes are extremely sour and unsuitable for food, they are only suitable for wine making. He even made very good wine.During his ten years as a sheriff, his family's wine was still very popular among his colleagues and neighbors.

The magistrate wants to resign from his post and return to the imperial capital with his family, so he wants to sell the house that he has lived in for ten years.

This home is very popular because of its meticulous care.William also got the news relatively quickly, so he was the first to find Mr. Sheriff, and quickly finalized the purchase of the house, grabbing an opportunity.

If other military officers who want to buy private houses or people who come to settle in the southern continent from the imperial capital know the news, they will probably have a fight.

The land and houses in the Southern Continent are relatively cheap, but due to the difference in living habits and hygiene habits, I bought a local house, and actually lived in it. It needs a major renovation.For example, the arrangement of toilets and bathrooms, etc., the original hygienic environment of the Southern Continent was by no means good.

There is no such problem when buying a sheriff's house. You only need to clean it, buy new sheets, tablecloths, curtains and the like, and you can move in directly.

After buying a new house and moving in, William of course left everything in the hands of Nia.He has his own affairs to be busy, and his current interest is in the culture and archaeology of the ancient tribes in the southern continent, and he has no interest in daily trivial matters.

On the other hand, it is also because Nia is very capable that William can let go and let Nia arrange all the trivial matters in life.

In essence, Nia is a very frugal woman who knows how to live. Nia did not use the savings that William left her before leaving the imperial capital.

Not only that, she used the rent of the shop to meet the daily expenses of herself and her two maids in the imperial capital, and even saved a sum of money every month, increasing the total amount of savings that William gave her.

In addition, this time the countess sent Nia to take care of William, worried that they would live in poverty in the Southern Continent, and before leaving, she also brought Nia the private money she had accumulated in recent years.

So even if William didn't get a large amount of medical fees this time, with the money Nia brought from the imperial capital, they could smoothly buy a house and settle down in the Southern Continent.

From this point of view, Nia is not like a lover who is taken care of. She has never had extravagant living habits. Even if she holds William's savings in her hand, she will not think about buying jewelry and dresses for herself. Useless things in her opinion.

She is like a perfect housekeeper, who can save expenses for the master, increase income and reduce expenditure, and arrange the life of the master in an orderly manner without losing the dignity of an imperial gentleman.

From every angle, whether it is Nia's sincerity towards William or Nia's ability to manage life, William is extremely satisfied with Nia.

Nia once again assumed the role of housekeeper, managing the maids responsible for cleaning the rooms and laundry, and the cook in charge of the kitchen. In addition, Nia also hired the two locals who were previously hired by the sheriff to work for her. Take care of the vegetable garden and make wine.

Nia used to work as a cleaning maid whether she was in a relative's house or in the Earl of Marne's mansion. She had never been exposed to pastoral work, let alone winemaking skills.

The former sheriff hired these two local servants for ten years. They were not only good at taking care of vegetable fields or orchards, but also assisted the former sheriff in brewing wine during the past ten years, and had fully mastered the wine-making technology.

Most of the locals have the skill of growing vegetables, but probably only these two people have learned some of the enviable wine-making skills of the former sheriff.

That's the main reason Nia hired them.

She also wants to learn from them in the process of brewing wine.For William, who does not have much income, it would also be an economic benefit if he could produce fine wine.Moreover, the fine wine can be used to please and bribe the boss, which is very good for William's future and the relationship with his colleagues, friends and neighbors.

The arrival of Nia really made William feel that his life was much easier.Food and clothing alone are much more comfortable.

For example, in the past, William used to eat in the barracks, or in the hotel with the archaeological team. The same food has long made William regard three meals a day as a task that must be completed every day, instead of enjoying the beauty of food.But now, even if his chef is not a particularly good cook, his craftsmanship is still acceptable, and there are too many choices of food, in short, the food is pleasing to the taste.

In the past, William's clothes were handed over to the laundry room of the military barracks or the laundry room of the hotel for cleaning. As a gentleman of the empire, it was absolutely impossible for him to wash his own clothes.But William, who has experienced a modern developed society, is a bit of a clean freak. When he thinks of being in a laundry room shared by so many people, he doesn't know that his clothes are mixed with other people's clothes, and he feels very uncomfortable.But there are no better living conditions, so I have to endure.Well now, with his own maid, William no longer has to worry about cleaning and disinfecting his clothes.

It is a trend for the officers of the empire to keep courtesans in the imperial capital and those charming and romantic dancers in the southern continent.But the well-informed William knew how easily certain diseases could be transmitted among these people under this chaotic relationship between men and women.For the sake of his own health, even if he loves sex, every time William participates in similar entertainment activities, he just watches but doesn't sleep.

Of course, he is not the only one who cleans himself up. There are also other officers who value family, or officers who are strict in character and have higher demands on themselves, and they behave in a similar way to William.

However, William has no family constraints, nor is he strict with himself. He just pays attention to his own health and is unwilling to take the risk of those infectious diseases.

However, William is a young man after all, and still has physical needs, so Nia's arrival can be said to be very timely.Considering that Nia is 20 years old, William feels that she can have a few children.

Because basically, William had stopped thinking about marriage.

After all, for an excellent girl with a generous dowry, the partner she chooses must also be excellent, either with a rich fortune, or a member of the nobility who will inherit the title in the future.

And with William's superficial conditions, the women who could marry a rich dowry were either flawed, such as being particularly ugly, or having IQ defects, or having a family-inherited madness.Or the old rich widow remarried.

In short, being well matched is not a joke.Why do rich women choose William?He has no assets, no high social status, and no support from nobles, so he will be able to develop greatly in military and political affairs in the future.

After William got the treasure of the family secret room, he already had the confidence to marry a woman he didn't like because of money in the future.

But he can't expose the existence of this wealth. Outstanding women and their families will not choose a mediocre husband like him.

In this case, William basically didn't think much about marriage.Anyway, many of the gentlemen and ladies of the empire chose to be single for the rest of their lives.

So William planned to let Nia have several children.

An illegitimate child is a big scandal in the eyes of the nobles, which greatly affects the marriage market of the nobles.For an aristocrat with an illegitimate child, the marriage partners he can choose will drop several grades.

But William was kicked out of the Earl's Mansion by the Earl of Marne, and basically left the upper class.The so-called scandal requires sufficient status and attention, and only bad rumors can be called scandals.

But William, the mediocre second son of a nobleman who left the family, no one paid attention to, even if he had an illegitimate child, no one would care.

As for the future of the children, there is no need to worry, as long as their education standards are guaranteed, and they are sent to strict private schools, boys go to college to receive elite education, girls have a decent dowry, and it is easy for them to marry middle-class people in the future of.

Aristocratic marriages also pay attention to birth, and will not choose dishonorable illegitimate children.But the middle class is more practical. As long as men have a stable and well-paid job, and women only need to be educated and have a dowry, it is easy to get married.

Just like William himself, he can also marry a middle-class daughter with little dowry, such as a lawyer's daughter, a doctor's daughter, and the like.Because he also has a job as an officer with a steady income.His work is also in line with those of the middle class.

It's just that William didn't have this heart.

Ever since he got the wealth of the family secret room, William didn't intend to wrong himself in marriage.Unless he meets a woman he likes very much, he doesn't plan to get married in his life.

Because of the difference in social class, William will not marry Nia, and he does not want to challenge the vision of the world.

As a lover, Nia is qualified and outstanding in the eyes of the world, and everyone will like her, including William's mother and friends.

But as a wife, because Nia crossed the class, no one would be satisfied with her. No matter how good Nia's character is, the separation of one class can already obliterate all her advantages.

William had no interest in making trouble for himself and Nia.

Although they are not married, they can have several children.With a child, Nia's life will be considered stable.The lover cannot inherit the inheritance. If William dies in an accident, the Earl of Marne's House has the right to drive Nia away and receive all of William's property.

But if William left his inheritance to his illegitimate son, it would be normal.Even if it is an illegitimate child, if William is not married and has no legitimate child, he still has the legal right to inherit.
