Being able to find tranquility in a highly prosperous city like Yangxin City and owning a large manor on the outskirts of the city is simply a dream for countless people.
On the green land, stood the large house that Mai had been very familiar with since she was a child. Looking from a distance, the exterior walls of the manor seemed to reflect dazzling light in the sunlight.
Passing through the marble arch, Mai, holding Eevee in her arms, returned to her home again after a year.
As soon as he stepped into the gate of the manor, a chubby figure flew over from a distance.
The Dark Night Demon was the first to sense Mai's aura and came out early. Gengar, who had taken a free ride, just came out of the Dark Night Demon's shadow and was grabbed by the Dark Night Demon before he could even throw himself into Mai's arms.
Stop and throw it directly behind you.
Seeing that the Night Demon and Gengar were still the same, Mai couldn't help but laugh.
"Help me gather everyone here." Mai gently pressed her hand on the Night Demon with a serious expression, "I have something important to announce. No matter where I am, I will find it."
The Night Demon was stunned for a moment. He had never seen Mai speak in such a serious tone before, and then he realized what he was doing. He quickly led Gengar to look for his companions who might be having fun outside at the moment.
The movements of the Night Demon and Gengar were discovered by Mai's servants who were raising elves outside. Then they saw Mai holding Eevee and greeting the elves staying on the grassland.
Seeing the servants who had taken care of her since childhood, Mai greeted them one by one, expressed her gratitude, and gave away the small gifts she had prepared.
This is also the reason why Mai returned to Yangshin City that night but did not go home.
She not only borrowed elves from Kikuno and Sirona, but also borrowed some money to buy gifts.
These servants have carefully cared for her since she was a child. Some of them are residents of the nearby manor who come here to work part-time, and some are professional servants. To this day, Mai can still remember the scene of them trying to make her happy.
They worked here for more than ten years, which constituted Mai's disease-ridden and boring childhood.
That was one of the most beautiful colors in Mai's childhood.
Mai didn't say anything, but these servants who had only served Mai for a long time already knew that they might have to find a new job.
The conflict between Mai and the owner of this house seems to be irreconcilable.
Just as Mai was hugging the servants, the out-of-town housekeeper finally returned home.
Not daring to neglect, the shocked housekeeper quickly informed Kongmu Tetsu who was still in Yangxin City.
Mai quietly watched the housekeeper inform Kongmu Tetsu, while she enjoyed the tea and snacks carefully prepared for her by the servants.
The sound of footsteps coming from the top of the hall made Mai slowly put down the tea cup and move her gaze to the red carpeted stairs in the center of the hall.
A young woman wearing a loose white top was holding a small bag and applying delicate light makeup, as if she was about to go out.
When I saw Mai sitting on the sofa in the hall, she was a little dazed.
Mai's eyes met hers, and they were both staring at each other intently.
"Madam...this is Miss Mai..." The old housekeeper was sweating profusely and looked embarrassed, "Ms. Mai, this is Mrs. Rongmei."
Even though he was so experienced, he didn't know how to speak, so he could only introduce each other to the two parties in such a funny tone.
On one side is the new mistress of the Kongmu family, and on the other is the daughter of the head of the Kongmu family. These two people do not need to introduce each other in such a social ritual.
However, when the old butler called out the names of the two people, there was a hint of classical charm, very much like the roll-call ceremony at the old aristocratic gathering recorded in the book.
It was different from what the old housekeeper expected. He originally thought that Mai suddenly came back at this time to make trouble about Kongmu Tetsu's marriage, so he was particularly nervous after seeing Rong Mei go downstairs and meet Mai.
However, Mai didn't say anything, and the expression on her face didn't change at all. After looking away, she picked up the tea cup and took another sip of tea, and took a bite of her favorite pudding.
Rong Mei didn't know what to do or what to say. The aura of Mai sitting on the sofa was so strong that she couldn't help but flinch.
Rongmei came to the opposite side of Mai in embarrassment and sat down.
Seeing Rong Mei sitting down carefully, Mai glanced at Rong Mei's belly and sighed when she saw the slight bulge.
The housekeeper seemed to still be worried about what would happen between Mai and Rong Mei. Instead, the servant standing behind Mai moved the housekeeper far away, making room for conversation.
"Do you like my dad?"
Mai's incomprehensible words of emotion rang out in the uncomfortably quiet hall.
After hesitating for a while, Rong Mei nodded: "I like it very much."
Mai looked in the mirror and saw that when Luther ran out for training at night, the look she had when she was giggling thinking about Luther was exactly the same as the expression Rong Mei was showing now.
This is a happy expression.
Mai elegantly picked up the tea cup and took another sip, then smiled slightly.
"I see, then I must wish you happiness."
Hearing Mai's words, Rongmeiju stood up awkwardly while protecting his stomach, and hurriedly defended: "I didn't lie to you, I told the truth."
A woman in her twenties who was about to become a mother made such a humble explanation in order to appease Mai's mood and integrate into the family. Mai could feel her kindness.
Mai's presence in this family is more like a thorn, indicating that this family once had another owner.
Mai's attitude directly determines whether the family can be harmonious, so Rong Mei is worried that Mai will not accept her.
"If those messy things didn't happen, maybe we would be very happy living together." Mai murmured.
Rong Mei didn't hear what Mai said clearly, but she didn't dare to ask any more questions and just looked at Mai silently.
"I'm not lying to you. I really believe what you said. I've seen the expression on your face." Mai smiled and said, "That expression can't fool me."
While the two were talking, the night demon had already returned to the house. After being stopped by the servants, he could only poke his head around.
Mai stood up and showed a relaxed smile to Rong Mei: "From now on, you will be the mistress of this house and this family."
Rong Mei was stunned. She couldn't understand the meaning behind Mai's words for a moment.
Seeing Mai walking towards the door, the housekeeper hurriedly followed her out, explaining to Mai that Toru Kuangmu was already on his way home and hoped that Mai could stay to see him.
"Don't worry, I will wait for him to come back." After Mai gave the old housekeeper a reassurance, she came to the courtyard.
The night demons and Gengar soldiers divided into two groups, and it took a long time to finally call back all the elves raised by Mai.
Boss Cordora, lantern fish, natural sparrow, heterochromatic jackrabbit, Gengar, four-season deer, and pink butterfly. When they saw Mai, they were about to pounce on her but were blocked by the night demon.
Except for the different-colored jackrabbit, the others were all elves that Mai had conquered before she started traveling.
Mai clicked on it and suddenly found that the Denden insect was not there.
Just as I was about to ask the Night Demon and Gengar, I saw a yellow spot on the grass in the distance quickly rushing towards me.
While he was collecting fruits in the woods, he was reminded by other wild elves that the night demon had come. After seeing Mai, he sprinted faster.
Dendenmushi has returned to the team, so that's it.
There are only so many elves that belong to you in your own yard. The others are either wild elves attracted by these cute little creatures, or they are raised by family members.
Facing the elf in front of her, Mai smiled and said, "I'm leaving here. This time I came back specifically to take you away."
Mai's words made all the elves widen their eyes.
"The place I'm going to take you may not have as good a living environment as here, and the food won't be as exquisite as here..."
Before Mai could finish her words, Boss Cordora gently hugged Mai.
With Boss Cordora taking the lead, the remaining elves rushed over.
They are all gathered together because of Mai. They are elves that only belong to Mai. Wherever Mai goes, of course they will follow her.
Mai, who was stuck by the elf, grabbed the Denden insect that jumped on her neck and threw it above her head.
"I can assure you that the place you live in in the future will never be worse than here."
Seeing Mai extending her hand, Boscodora lowered his head slightly.
Mai touched Boscodora's hard head and said, "Now, let's start moving."
