Chapter 284 Going Home

She came home, after being away for almost two years.

From the prosperous royal city to the remote countryside, Felissa felt a little emotional, but she didn't complain.

Her ability to adapt to the environment is quite strong, which is her greatest advantage.

Her family is just a small baron, and their territory is the size of a county in the previous life. If you ride a horse, you can patrol the lord in half a day, and a royal city is larger than her family's territory.

She could see the city wall from a distance. Since her family was on the border, the city wall was built very high to prevent the demons from attacking at any time. There were mottled marks on it, and the moat was dug deep and wide. The guards guarding the gate were

Strictly check everyone entering and leaving the city gate.

Felicia jumped off the carriage as she passed the city gate and greeted with a smile on her face: "Uncle Charlie, I'm back!"

The tall and sturdy gate guard squinted his eyes and looked at Felissa carefully for a long time. He showed a big smile and put his generous palm on Felissa's head and rubbed it twice: "I said who is this? It turns out to be Xiao Fei."

Lisa, I’ve been out for several years and I don’t even know her anymore.”

Such kind, doting care from the elders to the younger ones has indeed been a long time coming. Felissa obediently allowed Charlie to mess up her hair, and then complained jokingly: "You messed up my hair."

Charlie laughed and raised his hand to let Felissa go: "Your father should be out, and your mother should be at home."

"Okay." Felicia responded, and walked directly home without getting on the carriage, with the carriage slowly following behind her.

After walking for more than twenty minutes, Felissa saw home, couldn't help but quicken her pace, and rushed to the door.

Felissa's house can be considered a small mansion, with a front garden, buildings and a back garden. Compared to the royal city where land is at a premium, her house occupies a much larger area.

There was a gardener tending the flowers and plants in the front garden. He was also an old man who had worked at Felissa's house for more than ten years. Felissa was very familiar with him.

"Grandpa Paul!" Standing outside the wooden fence, Felissa jumped lightly with her feet, and she waved and shouted.

The gardener raised his head in confusion, looked around and saw Felissa. He immediately put down the scissors in his hand, wiped his hands on his clothes, and walked over to open the door for Felissa: "Hey, Miss Felissa is back.

Already."

Felissa asked as she walked inside: "Where is mother?"

Paul replied: "Madam should be in the study."

Felicia entered the house by a familiar route, went up to the second floor, and went straight to the study.

The door of the study room is open, and you can see at a glance a woman sitting behind the desk, with the quill in her hand moving constantly on the paper for marking.

"Mother!" Felissa called excitedly, looking at her mother's face almost greedily.

In fact, it had only been two years since she left home to go to school in the royal city. Her mother's appearance had not changed much, but she felt a little strange.

After correcting the document in her hand, the woman put down her pen and stretched out her hand to Felissa: "Come here."

Her eyes turned red involuntarily, and Felissa threw herself directly into her mother's arms: "Mom, I miss you so much."

No one can provide a deeper sense of security than one's parents, not even Azarez.

"You are so old, and you still cry all day long." A soft sigh sounded above her head, and Felicia felt a pair of gentle hands gently patting her to soothe her emotions.

Although he said disgusting words in his mouth, his actions were gentler than anyone else's. This is family.

Felissa quickly adjusted her mood and left her mother's arms.

The mother took a handkerchief and wiped her face.

Felissa raised her head and looked at her mother carefully, and her mother also looked at her seriously.

In the end, it was my mother who broke the silent stare.

"As long as you come back safely," Felissa was gently pushed away by her mother and then dismissed. "When you come back, you can clean up by yourself. You won't have to ask me to take care of you. I still have a lot of things to do here.

It’s done.”

It's so simple that it doesn't look like a mother who hasn't seen her child for more than two years.

But Felissa was very used to her mother's style. She smiled nonchalantly and raised her skirt to her mother as a formal resignation ceremony: "Then my daughter will retire."

As my mother said, she did have a lot of things to pack. This time she came back with a total of five carriages. Each carriage was full of things, some of which were her own things, and some of which were gifts she brought back to her family.

, in short, it’s a lot of work.

She went downstairs and directed the coachman and the servants and maids at home to unload her luggage from the carriage and put it wherever it should be.

Every move she made fell on a pair of eyes upstairs.

"Madam Anonymous," an older maid stood next to Felissa's mother and said with some relief, "My lady is much more mature, you should rest assured."

"She is far from enough," the nameless lady shook her head and sighed repeatedly, "far from it."

The older maid was silent for a while, and then cautiously advised: "You don't have to be so pessimistic, things may not develop to that point."

"No?" Mrs. Wuming sneered, "The demon army has already gathered. No one knows that they will officially launch an attack. We are the front line here. Do you think that the high-ranking nobles far away will send troops to protect you?

Us?"

The maid said: "But haven't they been moving?"

"That's because a person they are afraid of comes from the Royal City. Who knows when that kid will return to the Royal City? Once he returns to the Royal City..."

"Senior Nannuo will not return to the royal city for the time being."

A faint voice interrupted the slightly excited discussion between the two, and Felissa opened the door and walked in holding two gift boxes.

Felissa put the two boxes down on the table: "This is my gift to my mother and Aunt Susan."

Susan, the older maid, knew that she was not suitable to stay on the following occasion, so she took the gift and left in a hurry.

The unknown lady smiled, picked up the gift and opened it: "My daughter has really grown up and knows that it's time to bring a gift to her mother. Let her see what it is."

Her mother was changing the subject. Felissa lowered her eyes, feeling that now was not the right time to talk to her mother, so she continued following the topic that the unknown lady had started: "This necklace is in

I bought it on the Golden Avenue, and I thought it was suitable for my mother at first sight."

Of course, the prices of things bought on abandoned streets are not cheap.

Mother and daughter tacitly agreed not to mention the topic just now.
