And on the third day after the game was played, while Arthur was still looking at the game that he had read several times, there was a knock on the door.
Arthur approached the carriage door and opened it, and it was old Yule.
"Miss, you're home," Old Yule informed with a faint smile.
"Back home," Arthur poked his head out and saw a very familiar castle, which was her home.
Stepping out of the carriage, Arthur looked at his own home in front of him, somehow, Arthur felt a little melancholy, this is her home, is it so, this is indeed Arthur's home, but is this her home.
"Miss, what's wrong with you" Old Yule looked at Arthur standing motionless and looking at the castle, with a look of confusion and strangeness on his face, and couldn't help but ask at this time, as an experienced old man, Old Yule felt that Arthur at this time was a little wrong, as if something was missing, and it seemed that there was something more, which made him very worried.
"It's nothing, Grandpa Yule" Arthur shook his head, put away the melancholy from the bottom of his heart, and said softly: "It's just that I haven't been home for so long, how can I say it, it's just a little strange and unfamiliar."
Lao Yule looked at this girl who he regarded as his own granddaughter kindly, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, although the eldest lady hasn't come back for too long, I feel a little strange and unfamiliar, but this is the place where the eldest lady has lived for seventeen years, and there are relatives of the eldest lady here, I believe that it won't be long before the eldest lady will be able to adapt to it and find the feeling of going home again."
"Yes, then thank you Grandpa Yule for his words" Arthur smiled, exhaled softly, and walked towards the castle.
Along the way, countless people who saw Arthur saluted, and Arthur looked at the castle gate in front of him, and when she approached, he quietly opened it.
Starta and Mei Ling stood in the door, Starta smiled, happy that his daughter who had not seen him for a long time was back, and Mei Ling still looked dignified and elegant, the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, looking at Arthur, her eyes were also very happy.
"I'm back, father, mother, do you miss me" Looking at his parents, Arthur also smiled, and said a little playfully.
Starr smiled and walked up to Arthur and touched Arthur's head: "Of course I miss you very much, it's the first time you've been away from us for so long, I miss you to death, baby girl"
"I'm an adult, don't slap my head" Arthur slapped Star's hand on his head: "And don't call me my baby girl, it's disgusting"
Star's hand was slapped away, and he put it down, and said: "Where is it disgusting, I have been calling it for seventeen years, and I haven't seen you say that it is disgusting, why do you say it is disgusting as soon as you come back"
"Because it's really disgusting," Arthur laughed, "I don't believe you asked your mother."
Stara looked at Mei Ling and asked, "Madam, is it disgusting?"
"Of course" Mei Ling said without hesitation: "Actually, I didn't want you to call it that a long time ago, but Arthur didn't complain about anything at that time, and I can't say anything."
Stan smiled bitterly, and he shrugged his shoulders: "Okay then, since both of you mothers say it's disgusting, I won't call it anymore"
At the door, Arthur chatted with his father and mother for a while, and the two also left, going back to deal with matters related to territory and politics. These two are also very busy people, and they have a lot of territorial and political matters to deal with every day, at this time, both of them are generally dealing with these, if Arthur does not come back, in order to welcome their daughter who has not seen for a long time, they will not temporarily give up dealing with these things and wait for Arthur at the door.
Looking at the two of them who went back to deal with things, Arthur asked Old Yule to arrange a room for Frans and Lingling, and he also had to go back to the room he hadn't seen for a long time.
Arthur's room was on the third floor, and after walking around the stairs twice, Arthur came to the third floor and saw another person, who was Arthur's personal maid, Luluwei.
When the "eldest lady" saw Arthur, Lulu smiled slightly, but then she closed it, became expressionless, and saluted.
Arthur looked at Luluwei's changes, knowing that Luluwei was probably blaming herself for running away from home, she hurriedly said: "I was wrong, Luluwei, don't be angry, I apologize"
Luluwei was still expressionless, completely unmoved by Arthur's apology, seeing this, Arthur paused, her eyes rolled, and she continued: "Okay, Luluwei, don't be angry with me, in order to make you forgive, I brought you a gift"
As he spoke, Arthur wiped the space ring and took out the gift that the town had bought for himself during the trial, the bone bracelet.
Luluwei actually didn't have much anger in her heart, although there was a little anger at Arthur's running away from home, but it disappeared under Arthur's apology, but although it was gone, she couldn't be apologized by others, so she forgave her, showing a smile, maybe someone could do it, but Luluwei couldn't do it, just as Luluwei was thinking about when to accept Arthur's apology, she heard Arthur say that there was a gift for herself, which made her look forward to it, and was about to accept the gift to forgive Arthur at this opportunity, but when she saw the gift, she was almost scared to death.
Staring at the bone bracelet, Luluwei was so frightened that she screamed and retreated, as Arthur's personal maid, Luluwei has stayed in the castle nine times out of ten all her life, how have you ever seen this kind of terrifying thing, seeing the bracelet, Rao is Luluwei is a professional, and she was also frightened and retreated.
Arthur took the bone bracelet and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with you, Luluwei"
"Miss, what is that" Pointing to the bone bracelet, Lulu's whole body trembled.
Arthur blinked and said, "Gift."
"Gift" stared at the bone bracelet tightly, Luluwei really couldn't see that this was a gift, it was better to say that it was a curse prop at this time, but looking at Arthur's expression, Luluwei, who had served Arthur for fifteen years, also knew that Arthur was not lying, which made Luluwei extremely speechless.
"Miss, I still don't want this gift" took a few steps back again, and Lulu said slightly.
Alas, why" Arthur saw Lulu take a few more steps back and a few steps closer.
Lulu bit her bright red lip slightly: "Because it's too terrifying"
"Terrifying" Arthur heard this, and found that what she said seemed to be similar to what Leia and the others said when they saw this bracelet, and couldn't help but be depressed: "What's terrifying, Luluwei, you take a look at it, you will find that it is quite good-looking"
"It's strange" Luluwei wanted to say this at this time, but she didn't say it for fear of hitting Arthur, and when she saw Arthur's depressed expression, she couldn't help but smile, "Okay, Miss, I forgive you, but I don't want this gift" (to be continued.) )
