Although she had known this was going to happen, Rachel's heart beat faster when she heard that Cynthia and her sister had returned.

Thinking back to what Cynthia said to herself last night, Rachel even felt the urge to turn around and run away.

"Second Miss, Second Miss, what's wrong with you?"

Victoria's voice came from her ears again, and Rachel reluctantly smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I was thinking about things just now, and I didn't hear what you said." ”

Victoria also saw that Rachel's mental condition was not very good, so she smiled, "I think you are tired too, go home and have a good rest, tomorrow we will have a good reunion." ”

Seeing Victoria's gentle smile, the nervousness in Rachel's heart finally subsided a little, and a genuine smile bloomed on her face, and she responded, "Okay, we're going to get together when the time comes." ”

The territory of the Lanyue family is located in the deepest part of the Singing Hill, the elf's unique treehouse is built on a hilly terrain, the trickling river is crystal clear, and the birds and flowers are everywhere, I have to say that the scenery of this land is very beautiful, which is not seen in a big city like the human race.

Rachel and the others landed from the sky on a Pegasus, a post station where the patrol usually stationed strongly, and after Rachel tied the Pegasus, Victoria took Rachel to the treehouse where the patriarch lived, which was the home where Rachel lived as a child.

Most of the elves are indifferent to fame and fortune, although as the patriarch of the Lanyue family, one of the four veins of Shuluo, the place where Rachel's parents live is not much different from the place where ordinary elves live.

That home is still the one in my memory, a treehouse of about 100 square meters. The canopy, which serves as the roof, is covered with small white flowers. In front is a small farmland fenced off. It is also full of crops.

Before Rachel could sigh and reminisce about the home she knew, she suddenly saw a big cat in black and white fur dozing next to the treehouse.

Rachel was shocked, thinking that she recognized the big cat as her sister Cynthia's mount, the Winged White Tiger.

This white tiger is a contract phantom beast that Cynthia has cultivated since childhood, Rachel will definitely not admit it, and its appearance here now means that Cynthia is also at home.

"Huh. That's not the eldest lady's mount? It seems that the eldest lady is back today. Victoria was also stunned when she saw the two-winged white tiger, and then smiled, "That's great, it seems that you sisters and patriarchs can be reunited as a family." ”

Family reunion?

Rachel couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart, if things were so simple, she would naturally be very happy, but when she thought of her own affairs and Cynthia's cold face at that time, Rachel couldn't help but want to retreat now.

"Second Miss, why are you standing here and not going in? Fast. Patriarch, they are still waiting for you inside. ”

Victoria's urging voice rang out again, and she had knocked on the door for Rachel by this time. Under Rachel's nervous gaze. The door slowly opened, and out of it came a handsome-looking elven man.

Elves have a long lifespan, so their puberty is relatively long, and even many elves who have become parents look like ordinary young men and women, which can be said to be surprisingly young.

Rachel's eyes were already moist when she saw the elf man, and she covered her mouth with her hands, not wanting to let herself cry.

"Rachel?"

The elven man had already spotted Rachel standing beside Victoria, and he was stunned at first, and then full of surprise stepped forward and hugged Rachel into his arms.

"Rachel, are you really Rachel? Child, I'm finally waiting for you to come back. ”

The elf man is Rachel's father, don't look at him so young, but his actual age is already in his 80s, but in the elf's long lifespan, this age belongs to the prime of life.

Although the coming-of-age ceremony of the elves, like that of the human race, is at the age of 16 and has the function of giving birth very early, most of the elves pursue late marriage and late childbearing.

The main reason for this situation is that on the one hand, it is caused by the social structure of the elves, and on the other hand, it is related to the low fertility of the elves.

Maybe it's nature, and the elves are sexual. The desire for lust is very low, and although it is not a sexual frigidity, elven men and women rarely take the initiative to woo each other.

Elven couples often combine only for the purpose of reproduction, so some elven couples, even if they marry very early, will not give birth to offspring for a long time.

Rachel's parents, for example, gave birth to two sisters nearly twenty years after they got married.

Of course, in terms of the long lifespan of elves, it is not too late to become parents at the age of 5 or 60, but because of this, the population of elves has not been able to mention.

Ruan Chi also once joked that if the human race and the elf race directly fought a population war, ten elf races would not be able to defeat one human race, because with the current population of the human race, it is estimated that the human race can exhaust the entire elf race just by standing at your elves' slaughter.

Now let's take a look at Rachel's current mood.

Seeing her father, Rachel was already too excited to speak, and in her father's arms, she felt the long-lost fatherly love.

"Son, why are you only coming back now, do you know how worried I am about you?" Rachel's father was called Cesar. Lan Yue, who serves as an elder in the Lan Yue family.

"I'm sorry, Dad, I'm ......," Rachel was about to speak, when there was another sound of footsteps coming through the door, but it was Cynthia who came out of the house.

Sure enough, she also returned, and when she saw her sister's figure and her cold gaze, Rachel's words that she wanted to speak and stopped immediately blocked her throat and couldn't speak.

"Cynthia, you're just in time, your sister will be here." Cesar didn't seem to notice the strangeness of the two daughters, and took Rachel's hand and walked in front of Cynthia.

"Elder Cesar, my subordinates still have things to do, so I won't stop your family from reuniting, and my subordinates will leave." Victoria observed her words and said at this time.

"Well, then Victoria, you go and get busy." Instead of staying, Cesar waved his hand to signal that Victoria could leave.

As soon as the outsiders left, Cesar's expression full of joy fell silent, and he sighed softly and said to Rachel and Cynthia, "Family, let's talk about something when we go in." ”

"Yes, Dad." Rachel nodded softly, she didn't even have the courage to raise her head and talk to her as she passed Cynthia's side.

Cynthia didn't speak to Rachel either, and the sisters passed by like strangers.

……

Walking into the house, Rachel saw a slender figure sitting in the room, she was sitting in a rattan wheelchair, and Rachel's nose was sour again when she saw her.

"Cinderella, Rachel's kid is back." Cesar went to his wife and said.

That's right, this woman in a wheelchair is none other than Cesar's wife, that is, Rachel's mother, Cinderella. Lan Yue is also the patriarch of the current Lan Yue family.

Elves respect women, and Rachel's mother has a higher status in the clan and family than Cesar as a father.

Hearing her husband's words, Cinderella did not turn around immediately, but turned her back to Rachel and said coldly, "What about the return of such a shameless child?" ”

This sentence was like a sword blade straight into the heart, Rachel stood on the spot, her face was so pale that there was hardly any blood, she turned her head to look at Cynthia, who was expressionless beside her, and asked astringently, "You told them about that?" ”

"It's not Cynthia who told me, it's the news I received from the Council of Elders, a long time ago!"

Before Cynthia could speak, Cinderella's voice was already heard, a tone that was not only cold, but also contained disappointment and anger.

"Mom......"

"Don't call me Mom, I don't have a child like you who betrays the race and fornicates with other races." Cinderella interrupted Rachel rudely, and she slowly turned around.

Cinderella's appearance is very similar to Rachel, but her face is slightly more mature, as an elf, she is not very old, because she has been the leader of the clan for a long time, she has a natural leader temperament, standing with her husband Cesar, like the head of the family.

Cinderella's feet, badly injured from an adventure in her youth, are now paralyzed, but despite this, she is still the pillar of the entire Arazuki family.

"Poof!"

Under the majestic gaze of her mother, Rachel knelt down with her feet bent and cried, "I'm sorry, Mom, it's the child who is wrong, the child has not grown up according to your expectations, and it is the child who has disappointed you." ”

"You didn't disappoint me, you just disgraced our Lan Yue line, Rachel, at first I thought that your qualifications should not be below Cynthia, and even if you don't have Cynthia's achievements in the future, you should be able to become a good elven warrior, but you...... I fell in love with a foreigner, and I also fornicated with the other party to kidnap the queen of my clan, and almost put my clan in dire straits. Cinderella pointed at Rachel and lectured.

"Layla, my daughter knows that she is wrong, and the Presbyterian Church has already acquitted her?" As a father, Cesar could not bear his daughter's punishment, so he pleaded with him.

"Shut up, it's because you indulged her too much since she was a child, so she made today's mistakes, do you know, the Presbyterian side has already revealed to me that the reason for her acquittal is because the current queen, Her Majesty Denisa Xià issued an amnesty order."

What the?

Both Cesar and Rachel couldn't help but be moved when they heard this, and Rachel didn't expect that the reason for her release was actually this.

But why did Queen Denisha grant them an amnesty?

Just when Rachel couldn't figure it out, Cinderella's words made her stand on the spot again.

"Rachel, listen, Her Majesty the Queen has given you a marriage, let you marry the son of the patriarch of the Hundred Days One Lineage in three days, and continue the incense for our two lineage families, this is your only chance to atone for your sins." (To be continued......)
