Taking advantage of the night, the Rocks and Hans returned to Maple Leaf Village.
Originally, several relatives in the township selection were staying with Locke for one night, but because of the large number of people, Locke refused.
In addition to the two people, Kane also came back together.
More than a dozen people walked to Maple Leaf Village in the evening, and they were not bored. There were talks and laughs along the way, and Locke and his family had endless words.
Kane seemed to have something to worry about, so he didn't talk much, making Rock and Hans, who knew his character, surprised.
When we returned to Maple Leaf Village, it was already late at night, with only a full moon and a little star adorning the night sky.
The two families said goodbye and returned to their homes.
Hans had many family members, a large room, and many rooms. Kane was called to sleep in a room with Hans.
The Locke family is very small, with only two bedrooms in the room.
Old Rock and Tiya have been very excited since they saw their son, holding Locke's hand to ask the long and short.
Six years ago, Little Locke was only a half-size boy. Six years later, Locke had grown taller than Old Locke.
Finally, Leah stood up and forced the second elder to return to the bedroom to rest. Both elders were older.
Locke looked at this older sister who hadn't said much today. Locke wanted to say some greetings, but couldn't say anything, and didn't know where to start.
After being pushed back to the bedroom by his daughter, Old Rock and Tia shouted, "You also have to rest early!" Soon there was no sound.
After a day of hard work, they were already tired.
Only Locke and Leah were left in the room.
"The silk scarf is beautiful." Locke pointed to Leia's hair-tied silk scarf. This was the first sentence he said to his sister except greetings when he returned.
"Uh." Leah lowered her head.
"Let's rest too." Locke suggested that the atmosphere was awkward, and it wasn't too early.
"it is good."
Locke realized how stupid the suggestion he had just made after returning to his bedroom.
His bedroom is also Leah's bedroom. Locke was only 14 years old when he joined the army. He and Leah have been sleeping in the same bedroom.
Even when he was a child, because he thought the bed was small, he had to make a bed with his sister's bed and squeeze it into his sister's arms to sleep.
That was when he was a kid, he is now 19 years old, and it is not appropriate to sleep in a room with his sister at this time, but this evening, Locke couldn't find a place to rest.
"Go to your bed and sleep." Leah pointed at Locke's small bed and seemed to carelessly, as if Locke was still the same as she was just a younger brother.
Leah said so, Locke no longer felt embarrassed, took off her armor, and slept with her clothes.
Leah untied her silk scarf and dropped her long, beautiful hair like a waterfall. She pushed her long hair to her chest and Leah also lay on her bed.
The two were separated by only a small bedside table.
Locke had been riding for several days, and almost hadn't had a good night's sleep. It seems reasonable that he had been tired for a long time, but he was lying in his bed at this time, smelling the familiar fragrance, and couldn't sleep anymore.
It wasn't until the sun rose above the distant forest that Locke fell asleep.
When I woke up again, it was the noon of the next day. When I suddenly opened my eyes, Locke touched the scabbard with his left hand but felt nothing, only to remember that he had returned home and the war was over.
Seemingly remembering something, Locke glanced sideways at the next bed, nobody.
Stretching his waist, Locke shook his stiff muscles, and the bones of "pyrrole, pyrrole" burst into a crisp sound.
The armor and long sword were still in place, and Locke walked out of the house in a military uniform.
The mother Tia was already feeding the chickens in the yard, and her sister Liya was chopping wood, and a pot of soup was cooking in the stove on the side.
"Let's come!" Locke walked in front of her sister Leah and grabbed the axe in Leah's hand.
Leah put on the old burlap sack again and wrapped her towel around her head. Although it was a lot worse than yesterday's beautiful appearance, Locke liked her sister's appearance now.
Telling her sister to stay away, Rock shook his arm and started chopping wood.
It's not too simple to lock the wood when the soldiers have trained a muscle, not to mention that he is still a strong low-level servant. He will split a tall wood pile neatly after a while.
Enough for a family to spend a week.
While chopping wood, he asked, "Where did my father go?"
Up to now, Locke has not seen Old Locke.
"I went to the field to pick up potatoes and rice potatoes. Today I have rice potatoes stewed chicken and mashed potatoes." Mother Tia squinted and smiled.
There are not many delicious foods at home. The son finally came back after so many years. The old couple had already discussed what to do.
Locke knew the stewed chicken without guessing. The old hens in the yard didn't care.
According to Locke’s current property, half of it is enough for the family to eat and drink for the rest of their lives, and there is no need to save on food and drink.
He had made up his mind to buy a real estate in the town under the management of Baron's Castle after a while, and when his award came down, he bought a manor to provide for his parents.
He had not forgotten the knighthood promised by Prince Kensel.
This did not rush to tell parents in advance, to give them a surprise, Locke thought.
When Locke was chopping wood, Leah was not idle. She went to the house and took a lot of vegetable seasonings to make the burning soup more fragrant.
Not long after Old Locke came back, the family had sat around and ate into a table for lunch. This was considered to be another dinner with Locke’s family in five years.
The Hans and Kane next door were also attracted by the fragrant chicken, and the thick-skinned man sat on a stool and sat down.
These two also just woke up. Sleeping at home is more comfortable than when they were soldiers outside. The soldiers who were not on duty still slept three times in the sun.
For seven days in a row, Locke stayed with his family at home.
If you don’t want to follow Lao Luo to work in your own field on the back of the mountain, or help your mother and sister do some housework at home.
"Let's not need these old clothes, let's change them." Locke said, pointing to the old clothes that were sewed in the hands of sister Leah.
"The clothes are okay, why not." Mother Tia came out first to object.
"We don't lose money again," Locke said silently. He had just learned that his parents had saved most of the money he sent back over the years.
"Are you asking your daughter-in-law not to spend money? You don't spend money to build a new house?" Although mother Tiya had always been a good-tempered person, she broke out and was not much different from neighbor Aunt Mary.
Locke would like to say to his mother, of the three women your son has been asking for, two of them are incredibly rich, and one of them will make money. There is no need to spend any money on our family.
Indeed, Angelina doesn't have to say, if you are the princess of Folstein, if Locke really can marry, do you still need any gift money? Guang' Angelina's dowry is estimated to be able to buy several mining towns.
Grace, too, Locke did not forget the space equipment in her and Kristin's hands. When she left the treasure house of the Marquis of Philippe House, how many precious items were loaded, and Deller could drown a person alive.
There is also that Rock wearing heavy heavy armor, is a rare equipment, only a whole Charlotte, you can guess its value, only high-level servants can break the armor.
Of course, there was Xia Qian in the end. Locke had only left her a few hundred Yindler. She had earned more than ten times in a blink of an eye, and she should not be too business-minded.
These words, Locke can't directly tell his family, Angelina's identity can't be revealed casually, and the facts of Grace, the four daughters of Xia Qian, and the Shir Luo can't be said.
Locke had no choice but to accept this little peasant thought of his mother Tia.
These days, Locke discovers that Kane is not right. This guy looks exactly like his sister, as he did when she saw Xia Qian.
Somehow, Locke felt a little uncomfortable. Although everyone was a good brother, he felt that his things seemed to be peeped by others. Locke hated this feeling.
Fortunately, Leah had always been lukewarm towards Kane, which made Locke feel a lot.
However, Kane's confidence suffered a serious blow. This guy was in a state of insecurity for several days because of Leah's cold reception.
In fact, it was not that Leah met him coldly, but that Leah did this to her suitors. Only two days later, Leah felt what his brother, a comrade, meant to him.
It's a pity that Leah didn't have a cold for him. If Kane was a comrade of Rock, Leah would have treated him like any other man in the town.
This time at home can be said to be the most leisure time of Locke.
Get up every morning to fight punches, chat with my parents and sister, and go to the soldiers of Kane and Hans to grab some game in the forest of Houshan, don't be too comfortable.
Yesterday Locke thought about it and still took out some of his savings. Not much, just like ten Kindlers, so as not to scare his loved ones.
But at first glance, Locke and Tia saw Jindler as Tongdler.
"How does this Dele head wear a crown?" Old Locke frowned and looked carefully at his eyes. He was afraid of meeting fake money.
When Locke informed that it was Kindler, the old couple grabbed Locke and asked if it had been stolen. Locke couldn’t help crying. He, a squadron leader of a cavalry squadron, was guilty of stealing chickens and dogs?
Nor can I blame Old Rock and Tia for making a fuss. Ten Kindlers are a thousand silver dlers. Locke has been sending home money all these years, and the money that old Locke has saved is only one hundred gin. Like Le, the money was enough to make a decent gift and marry a decent daughter-in-law.
From the moment Locke took out so much money, the old couple just kept on sighing for the son's interest, and no longer mentioning saving him to ask his daughter-in-law, the old couple in the village had lost their eyes, like His family was so prosperous that he could not go to town or even the baron town to find a better one.
The old couple didn't want the money, because they both lived in such a big age, and they still need the money, but Lockheede gave it to his parents and said it was filial piety.
The once naughty, skinny son knew filial piety. Old Rock was okay, and Tiya couldn't stop wiping her tears.
On this day, Locke and Hans and others went to the back hills to play game. It was not that the domestic chickens were not fragrant, but after all, they had been poultry raised by their parents for several years, and they had some feelings, and a few chickens were not enough for a few big stomachs. The king, or the roe, hare, and guinea pig on the back hill are more chewy.
In addition to the three Locke, there were several soldiers accompanying him, all from Maple Leaf Village, hoping to take advantage of this opportunity to get in touch with the two squadron leaders.
Until the evening, a group of people came down from the mountain talking and laughing, and everyone was covered with loot--
