Chapter 16: Eliza
The moon is bright in the sky, and the starry sky is quiet.
Meron and the others walked for a full five days to reach their goal, one day later than expected.
When I saw Bant's castle, it was completely dark, and the group was also stained with wind and dust, and their faces were full of tiredness.
Especially Kana, the little girl, had already fallen asleep on Meron's back.
There was originally a cart cart for Yalina and Kana to ride, but because of the wolves, the cart was requisitioned, and a cart full of wolves was pulled, and Yalina and Kana could only walk with the crowd.
Of course, if this is the case, it will not be a day later than expected to arrive at Fort Dubai in Banten.
In addition to the requisition of the pack ox cart, everyone had a lot of things on their backs, even Meron was carrying a man on his back and two rabbits in his hands, not to mention others.
"Stop, this is the castle of Lord Count Bant Dubai, where did you come from? Do you have an appointment? ”
The castle guard didn't recognize Meron and the others for a while, and immediately scolded, looking at the two ox carts, a little unable to take their eyes off.
So much prey, so many wolves!
I can't complain about it, it's dark now, and although there are a lot of torches to light it up, it still can't be compared with the day.
Meron and Alina walked behind the cart, and the ox-cart was full of things, obscuring the family logo hanging on the carport, and these people were attracted by the prey, and it was normal that they did not recognize them at once.
"Hey, worship the lamp, you blind fool, even dare to stop the viscount's ox cart, see that the earl comes back and won't break your dog's legs." O'Neid took two steps forward and laughed loudly.
Onid originally belonged to Bant's personal guards, so he naturally knew these people, and he had a good relationship with the lamp.
Meron, who was walking behind, glanced at Yalina, and saw that Yalina's face had not changed much, but her body throbbed several times, and her eyes were full of smiles, obviously almost laughing out loud.
When I got home, I was stopped at the door, and it was probably Meron.
Meron was divided as a viscount, but it did not belong to a separate door, at best it was just a separation, so Meron's visit to Dubai Fort in Bant belonged to home, not to visit.
Only those who have attained the rank of earl are eligible to set up a new family and form a new family from the original family.
"Oh! It's O'Neid, didn't you go to the territory with Lord Viscount? ”
This worship lamp obviously belongs to the slow reaction of the head, and after a pause, he said in surprise, wanting to hug O'Neid, but he saw O'Neid with a goat on his back and three pheasants in his hand, and he was a little at a loss.
"You idiot, I'm here with the Viscount this time, and the Viscount and Miss Yalina are there, why don't you hurry up and inform the people from the castle to come out to greet you?"
O'Neid gave the lamp a kick, and he also admired the old friend's brain.
Following the direction pointed by Oneid, Bai Deng finally saw Meron and Yalina, and hurriedly saluted: "I've seen Lord Viscount, I've seen Miss Yalina!" ”
Meron smiled slightly and nodded, as if he had said hello.
"Inform Madame and the butler, and say that Lord Viscount and Miss Yalina are back."
Bai Deng's head did not short circuit this time, and he shouted to the people behind him, and hurriedly went up to pick up the things in Meilong's hand.
Meron is the second young master in the castle, and he also belongs to the Dubai family's own family, but after all, he has a knighthood and separates his family, so there are still some ceremonial ceremonies.
After a grand welcome, Meron, Yalina, and Kana finally entered the castle.
As soon as he entered the castle, a beautiful woman greeted him, and she didn't care about the stains and dust on Meron's body, and gave Meron a fragrant hug: "Oh, my Meron Dubai, you have been away from the castle for four months and two days, and you have only returned." ”
Being forcibly embraced, Meron was embarrassed, subconsciously looked at Yalina beside her, and then information about this woman appeared in her mind.
Eliza, the second lady of Bant Dubai, is the current hostess of Burn Dubai......
That's right, this woman is none other than Meron's stepmother, the kind that is only more than ten years older than Meron.
Eliza is less than thirty-five years old, she is naturally beautiful and well-maintained, and she looks at the mountains about the same as she is in her twenties.
Meron was held like this, and he was a little overwhelmed for a while......
However, in my memory, this kind of scene happened from time to time.
When Eliza married into Dubaiburgh, Meron didn't know how to play with mud, and Meron's mother had passed away, so the task of taking care of Meron naturally fell to Eliza, until Meron was sensible, and there was an Obadon similar to Taifu.
In addition, Eliza has been married to the castle for more than ten years and has never given birth so far, so she loves Meron even more, and can even be said to be doting.
It turned out that Meron could live such a comfortable life in the castle, and Eliza had nothing to do with it.
Even after Meron was stupid, he was able to be named a viscount and have a territory to retire, and she also got such a beautiful daughter-in-law as Yalina, and Eliza contributed a lot.
Even though Meron is no longer the one he once was, that strong family affection still can't be parted, especially seeing the kindness and care in Eliza's eyes, which deeply touched Meron's heart.
Quietly, the stepmother is so good, this luck ......
"Eliza, aren't I coming back?" After Eliza was excited, Meron solemnly saluted and smiled.
It stands to reason that Meron is right to call Eliza her little mother, but in my impression, Eliza has always asked Meron to call her sister or call her by her name, including Meron's own brother and sister, which is embarrassing for the province.
Otherwise, even if Meron is grateful to Eliza, this little mother can't be called anything.
The group inevitably asked about the cold and warmth, and more often Eliza asked how Meron's territory was like, whether it was a good life, and if it was not satisfactory, they could move back to Fort Dubai.
Especially looking at the appearance of the three of Meron, and Merlon's clothes were torn several times, Eliza was distressed and almost shed tears.
Knowing that Meron was healed and not a fool, Eliza was so happy that she almost cried......
After dinner and a hot shower, Meron was pulled by Eliza to the living room on the third floor.
"I heard someone say that there are only two floors in Edinburgh?" Eliza herself poured Meron a glass of fruit wine and asked softly.
"Well, it's only 20%, which is much smaller than here, and the architecture is relatively simple." Meron nodded and answered.
A castle is a person's or a family's identification, like Fort Dubai, which is named after the Dubai family name.
And the grade of a castle indicates the strength of this person.
It can be called a castle, at least two floors, and Meron's Edinburgh is the most rubbish kind of this grade.
Fort Dubai is a three-storey castle, and the building materials are not all-stone like in Edinburgh, and as for the area, it can't be compared.
"Oh, that's terrible, or you don't have to leave when you come back this time, and Fort Dubai is so big anyway. Your father and brother often go out, and I'm the only one in the whole castle, and the whole castle will be lively if you and Yalina stay. ”
The corners of Meron's mouth twitched, and she knew that Eliza would be like this: "Eliza, I have grown up, I need to go out and break through, I believe it will be fine in the future, it will add glory to the Dubai family, of course, there are many difficulties at present." ”
"Oh? What difficulties are you encountering now? Talk to me. ”
