Chapter 192: Jumping the pit
On the way back, Ali walked in front of the convoy with Luna on his back, but he would always look back at the convoy from time to time.
Luna and Jack led the convoy through the plebeian and commercial quarters, and then stopped before reaching the aristocratic quarters, except for the frame of the old Marquis Latour and his wife, the rest of the entourage and the carriage were picked up by Fleming Raphael, who had been waiting here for a long time, and went to the mansion of the Marquis of Latour in the aristocratic quarter.
When the group passed through the aristocratic area and crossed the suspension bridge, they saw the wolf king and his wife who were already waiting at the gate of the royal court.
"Father, mother. Luna and Jack jumped off their mounts and stepped on.
"Come here. Silas glanced at Olivia, who was staring at the frame, and beckoned to a pair of children, holding one by the other.
The door opened, and the old Marquis Latour got out of the car with his wife and grandson, and after glancing at Olivia, he bowed to Silas first.
"I have seen the king, and may the gods bless my king. ”
"Father-in-law, hurry up and excuse me. Silas stepped forward, grabbed the old Marquis Latour's elbow, and lifted him up.
Seeing that a series of procedures were completed, Olivia, who had long been unable to hold back, finally pounced and put her arms around the necks of the old Marquis Latour and his wife, "Father, mother, I miss you so much......"
"Eh, you cub, you are the mother of three children, why are you still coquettish, the children are watching!" the old Marquis Latour hugged his daughter, although there was a little complaint on his lips, but his voice was a little trembling.
"Well, my cub hasn't changed, hasn't ......changed," Mrs. Stirling repeated with a shaking hand, caressing Olivia's cheek, her eyes red.
Silas, who was quietly waiting for the three of them to calm down, nudged Luna.
Luna turned her head to look at Silas, and when she saw Silas's gaze on the three people in front of her, she thought about it and stepped forward and persuaded, "Grandpa, grandma, mother, let's go in and talk! ”
"Good. Olivia sniffed and reached out to Luna, then looked at Ethan and asked, "This little guy is Garrett's son?"
"Yes, this time Garrett took over from me, and I couldn't see him off, so I let him come. The old Marquis Latour rubbed his eyes and beckoned to Ethan, "Come, I've seen your aunt and uncle." ”
"Aunt, uncle. Ethan stepped forward and saluted again.
"This little guy really looks like Garrett. He's a good boy. Is he going back this time? Why don't you stay and go to school in the royal court? Silas stepped forward, patted Ethan on the shoulder, and smiled and complimented.
Luna's face was a little red as she looked at her cousin Ethan, who had been praised by her father, but her back was getting straighter.
"That's what I'm going to do. Only then did the old Marquis of Latour look at his son-in-law seriously, and then asked, "Why haven't I seen Charles?"
He followed Samuel and Mr. Gotte to the western frontier. Silas replied calmly.
"The problem at the border is serious?" asked the old Marquis of Latour, with a somewhat heavy face.
He also had a caravan blocked from the border, but compared to Samuel's impulsiveness, he just sent someone to answer it and find a way to take care of it, but after all, he was still worried, and now that he said this, he had the heart to ask a few more words, although now that others had retreated, he always knew that those people were safe, so he could be completely relieved.
"If you want to talk about political affairs, go and talk about it yourself, we don't like to hear it. Let's go, good cub, let's talk to each other. Luna and Jack go with Grandma, who has brought you gifts. ”
Madame Stirling glared at the old Marquis of Latour, took Olivia in one hand, and beckoned to Jack.
"You, this is the royal court, can't you understand some rules if you're not at home?"
"Father-in-law, why isn't this home? You let your mother-in-law go, and I also have something to tell you. And Luna's sweets, my favorite for sweets. Silas stepped forward and grabbed the old Marquis of Latour.
"Luna did that?" said the old Marquis Latour's eyes.
"Yes, Father, I had Luna prepare it for you yesterday. Olivia spoke at the right time.
"Then let's go to your study, I can eat more of my granddaughter's food." The old Marquis of Latour, who had been emphasizing his wife's obedience a moment ago, heard this, grabbed Silas and strode in the direction of the castle.
"Huh...... You are so old, eat less sugar!" said Mrs. Stirling, in an uneasy voice.
"Got it, it's getting more and more verbose!" said the old Marquis of Latour, who was dragging Silas as he strode forward, snorting dissatisfiedly.
"This old thing!" said Mrs. Stirling, who heard her old man's complaint vaguely, and couldn't help but snort coldly.
"Mother......" Olivia pulled her mother, although she felt very nostalgic for the way her parents got along, but she still hadn't forgotten, and Luna and Jack, who were looking at the two elders with curiosity.
"Okay, well, I won't say it, but you say, why can't I hold the fire with your father!" Mrs. Stirling also glanced at Luna and Jack, sighed, and muttered.
"That's because Grandma and Grandpa have a good relationship!" Luna said with a grin.
Over the years since she crossed over, she has been accustomed to seeing the appearance of aristocratic couples, although her parents are also in good shape, and she is often forced to stuff dog food by these two people, but the relationship between Silas and his wife is not as down-to-earth as her grandparents.
"You little one, you know what it means to be in good feelings?" Mrs. Stirling looked at Luna with interest.
"Of course I understand, it's my grandfather and grandmother. Luna smiled widely.
"Then is your father and queen mother on good terms?" asked Lady Stirling suddenly.
"Okay, but unlike my grandparents, they both carried us behind our backs and didn't show them. ”
Luna grins and jumps over the pit her grandmother had dug and manages to make her mom blush.
When Mrs. Stirling heard this, she couldn't help but look at her daughter teasingly, and pulled Luna from Olivia's arms, and coaxed her as she walked towards the castle, "Then little Luna should tell Grandma how they are carrying you on their backs." ”
"Uh......" Luna, who was still complacent and felt like she had jumped over a big hole, couldn't laugh at the moment.
She didn't know what to say, after reading it over the years, she felt that it was enough to take her father's and mother's daily compilation of books without shame.
It's just that her father is the king in the end, do you want to tell her father that she is afraid of guilt, and when she meets her mother, she will be cowardly in seconds, in order to climb into bed and pretend to be stupid?
Luna instinctively felt that if she dared to say this, it would reach Silas's ears, and when her grandparents returned home, she would not be able to escape the fate of being hung by Silas again.
What can I do about this, woo, mom asked for help, I was wrong......
