Chapter 139 Things with no results and waiting(2/2)
In the afternoon, Alyssa's parents drove here in an old and shabby carriage, pulling a pile of oak barrels behind them.
After they came down and prayed to the Holy Emblem of Knowledge and Wisdom, they hurried to the back to find the girl.
Contrary to Hermione's imagination, the relationship between them was not as touching as in the book. Instead, they started complaining.
My father, who has white hair and beard, is wearing a gray coat and a brown vest with patches of mud on it. He is not tall.
He kept scolding Alyssa for not fulfilling her responsibilities as a servant and serving Master Lane well. She should have had a good life, but now she has lost it.
Her mother, who was still wearing a floral and stained apron, was also mumbling about what would happen if she lost her job. Her brothers and sisters at home also had a lot of expenses, while Alyssa kept wiping her tears.
Everyone in the church standing on the side didn't know what to say. After they had finished venting, Father Brandt took out a paper bag and envelope and handed it to Alyssa's father.

He quickly opened the small opening and looked inside, then closed it tightly and held the envelope tightly with both hands.
Father Brandt explained to him that this was Ren's compensation for his daughter, as well as the subsequent lawsuit against his daughter for being harmed.
After he got a positive answer, he put the paper envelope into his jacket pocket inside his vest, buttoned up the remaining two openings of his outer vest, and patted it there.
"Thank you, Father. Praise the God of knowledge and wisdom, praise Him. Thank you Master Ren for the compensation. We are going back and forget it."
He winked at his wife and asked her to pick up Alyssa and prepare to go back. These are enough to settle the children at home, and then Alyssa can find a family to marry, and he doesn't have to work so hard.
Hermione, who was leaning back in the chair, sighed helplessly. She was the only one present who was sitting there, looking up at the sky.
He lowered his head and looked at Father Brandt, who was still persuading Alyssa's father, and the mother and daughter who had already hugged Alyssa and led them out of the door.
"Mr. Ren has already compensated her, and Alyssa is not injured. We are going back. The grapes at home still need manpower to process, and Alyssa just happened to be back."
The girl who lowered her head and cried got into the carriage. The old man waved to them as they walked out of the church door and drove away briskly, leaving behind the sound of the car's shafts being pulled apart.
Father Brandt, who turned back, shook his head at Hermione, sighed, and returned to the church.
