Chapter 2504: Sad GoodByes -1

 It's amazing that when you're having the most fun, things often come to an end. 

Where has the time gone? No one could answer. 

Letivia, Commander Gordon's 2nd wife, stared at the group of new friends she made, not wanting to leave soon.

4 days... 

That was the time she had left to spend in Baymard before going back to Omania.

Tilda, who she knew as Dina, might be leaving tomorrow, but they will be leaving 4 days from now.

Letivia was a little heartbroken and always in a daze these days. 

What to do? 

Sigh...

Before coming, she never knew she would miss Baymard so much. 

"Sister Letivia! Sister Letivia!" 

Seeing her, several children rushed her way running around her like furry pets. 

Yes. 

All this time, she had been working in the orphanage.

Letivia didn't know she was an emotional person till she worked here. 

The children were so sweet and nice. 

When they got sick, she would take them to the hospital, and visit them from time to time too. 

The more she worked in the orphanage, the more she grew to appreciate how kindly Baymard treated its people. 

The children had healthcare and the right to education. 

And when they reach adulthood, they can slowly pay everything back.

Orphans were eligible for certain perks that canceled between 5~15% of their total debt. 

No matter what, every child must be literate. 

That was Baymard's rules that couldn't be broken. 

If any parent did not send their children to school, it was against the law. 

The time she came was around mid-November, so the children were taking their exams. 

Letivia has never been in such a rush in her entire life as she was back then. 

"Oh my God! Where is James' lunch box?" 

"Marinda? Can you please stand still darling, while I put on your cute shoes?" 

"Erm... Abraham, please don't chew your shoelaces, they're dirty." 

"Hold! Hold! Has anyone seen Kevin? He wouldn't be home alone, right?

Damn!

Nanny Letivia to the rescue.

–--

Don't think her job was easy. 

During exam times it was the duty of all staff to ready the children to take them back and forth from school to the orphanage.

At first, she was very disoriented, forgetting things here and there. 

She once left a job in the sleeping quarters after counting a head twice.

However, as time went on, she began a proficient supernanny, rushing in with spare shoelaces, spare pencils, hair ribbons for the girls and so on. 

She knew the traits of the children she took care of, knowing who was likely to lose what and who was likely to cry to not fall asleep at night. 

Well, when she did her rounds, she sometimes acted like monsters in the stories she read to them at night, causing the children to hide underneath their blankets, not saying to poke their heads out anymore.

Well after playing the bad guy, she would follow up with a good guy act, acting as though she had successfully driven the monster away.

It was embarrassing to see the children stare at her with twinkling eyes filled with awe.

Can she say she was guilty? 

Of course, she was. But she dared not say anything, letting them learn their lessons and go to bed early. 

It's just that the kinds of monsters that scared these children were kidnappers and those sort of monsters.

Please.

These children, like many other children in the world, feared the terrible nature of man more than some made-up fantasy story.

Spending time with the children made Letivia wish she could turn back the hands of time and personally raise her children.

In noble homes, it is mostly the chosen wet nurses and maids who raise the children for them.

Don't get them wrong.

They see their children during mealtime and also during some personal time frames.

Just like they are busy their children are also busy, doing sword fighting, learning etiquette, needlework, poetry, dance, instrument playing, and other aristocratic lessons.

At home, the children also had separate courtyards from their mothers when they turned 9~10 (depending on the empire).

By adulthood (4~15), they are either married off or given private properties outside their father's estate. 

In other words, it's time for them to move out, learn to live on their own and start a family.

In truth, only the chosen heir can continue staying in his father's estate, even though he still has properties outside. 

And of course, if the father hasn't chosen an heir yet everyone will move out until he does so.

But this example is only for people who come from open Clans.

Closed Clan groups, owned countless hills and closeby territories within major towns and cities like the Capital. 

There, everyone stayed in the Clan's enormous sect-like territory. 

Everyone will be given the same space no matter what. 

That's why each courtyard is like a vast mansion with various wings, northwest, south, east, you name it. 

This is for maximum privacy. 

And when someone dies, for example, a brother dies with no hero to take over, his wing is now free and replaced by someone else.

In many cases, people die during war and even their entire courtyard is free for the can to pass it on to someone else. 

That's why newborns never lacked places to call a home of their own.

These clans also had open lands and small forest terrains in their properties all for expansion.

But of course, the property where the main clan members reside is vastly different from the properties the Branch members live in.

They typically acquire other properties in the Capital city, having their branch members live further away from the central zones. 

Such is the way things are done. 

That said, even when living in the same courtyard with her children when they were younger, she still didn't see them so often.

The noble system was very strict, fearing to make a child too soft. 

Things are never so simple as they seemed.
