At Your Disposal, Madam novel Chapter 100

Jane got up and walked to the garden.

In one corner of the garden, Yates made her a wooden swing set.

When she was young, Jane liked to play on the swing or read books.

The swing was still in good condition because it had been maintained.

And over time, the wood seemed softer.

Jane sat down and swang gently.

She looked up at the sky, and the stars were almost gone in the sky of the city.

And she thought of that the sky of her grandmother’s house was so clear. She even she had seen the Milky Way in the Summer.

It's just that over the years, the two families have lost touch.

Grandmother said, "Don't come here. I'm sorry, Jane, I just think of your mother when I see you. My heart is really very sad. I don't want to see you again."

Grandmother gave birth to a son and a daughter. Her son was abducted and sold so they only had a child.

The only daughter died when she gave birth to a child, her father and mother complainted.

Jane suddenly wanted to meet them.

The two old people were old and she did not know who will take care of their lives.

The Zhao family was a famous local family before, and then declined.

To this generation of Zhao grandfather, only a name had been left.

The Zhao family still had a house in the country. The house was old and well preserved.

Every year, they would maintain the house, which has been inherited for a hundred years. However, it did not show decay at all, but has a kind of ancient and heavy historical breath.

When Jane was young, she went to her grandparents' house and had a deep memory of the house.

She even carried a ladder to the top of the tile before the grown-ups were looking, and lay there till it was dark and looked at the stars.

Then she fell asleep.

Adults were worried a lot, thinking Jane may be lost in the woods, or fell into the pool.

In rural river pools and so on, every year there will be children drowned, since naughty children love to play water.

Yates was numb with fear.

Later, someone found a ladder in the side room. They climbed up the ladder and saw Jane as a little elf lying there, sleeping soundly.

Yates was angery, took a feather duster and gave Jane a lesson.

God knew how hard they were looking, and they almost called the police.

Yates was very strict with himself, he will never give people trouble.

But because of looking for Jane, basically he asked the whole village people for help.

Unexpectedly, the grandmother who was bad to them in the usual blocked Jane in front of Yates.

"Jane has no mother, why don’t you hit her? She did not go to anywhere, but fell asleep when she was tired. It's not a big deal."

They didn't think to shout at the roof.

Now in retrospect, Jane's heart felt warm, maybe because her mother Lisette Zhao had done such a thing.

She wondered if her grandparents had beaten her mother at that time, or maybe they had, but then her mother was gone, so in retrospect, they must have felt very regretful.

After such a thought, Jane could not sit anymore.

She jumped off the swing and was going upstairs to get her things ready. She wanted to go to grandma's tomorrow.

However, when she jumped down, because she was wearing a skirt, the skirt flew up, Jane hurriedly pressed the skirt, but saw Jamie at that moment.

Jamie smiled, obviously he has seen the whole process.
