The day that Father Heru and Yanti were waiting for arrived, Arumi waved when she saw the ship that would take her husband and young wife away.
"Hey let's go home" take Minten.
"yes, but can we buy some stuff while we're in this town,"
"of course Nyai," replied Geno who escorted Arumi.
Even yoga cars escort Nyai Arumi around the city of Surabaya.
They stopped at several places that sold the necessities of clothing that was often used by European women.
And some other items, after finishing they headed back to the village which was quite time consuming on the way.
Fortunately Arumi is strong in the car, arriving in the village seen some residents already crowded in front of the Harem palace.
When the car passed by everyone was out of the way, and when Arumi went down everyone immediately gave a salute.
"Sugeng Nyai Ageng noon," greetings everyone.
Arumi was startled, and pointed at herself, taking Minten smiling and making Nyai Ageng Arumi's posture firm.
Mbok Minten smiled and nodded, letting the woman answer her greetings.
"good afternoon everyone," replied Arumi politely and kindly.
it seemed that everyone was shocked to see Arumi's kindness, "sorry everyone, what's up, why did you all come here?"
"we just want to thank nyai, because thanks to Father Heru and Ndoro Sodiq, everyone can learn for free,"
"that's good sir, but Romo is on his way out of town, so wait for Romo to come home, yes" said Arumi, who felt unworthy to receive the congratulations.
Suddenly Geno came forward towards the villagers, "if you want to thank Tomo, you can help keep Nyai Arumi away as long as Father Heru leaves" the man said.
"well mang Geno, we will work hand in hand to guard Nyai Ageng" replied the residents
Arumi did not think that a single remark from Geno could make everyone agree.
Finally before leaving, Arumi distributed the rice to everyone.
Because yesterday their harvest was very abundant, and after everyone left he chose to go inside the house and chose to sit back in the living room while resting his feet.
Mbok Minten massaged Arumi's legs so as not to be swollen, while Mbok Jum let the Green bean boiled water.
While Geno was standing next to the woman with Idan, "sir, you can also sit back and relax first, why so ready to take care of me, and also sitting in the house, you know,"
"it's okay, we're fine,"
Everyone ate green bean boiled water, after Arumi finished choosing to change her clothes with a polite negligee.
suddenly the chariot of Sukma entered the palace of Harem, and the woman felt that the name had a bad influence.
"sugeng rawuh Nyai,"
"yes, where is my sister?"
"Monggo Nyai, Nyai Arumi is relaxing with the mbok mban" said mbok ni.
When he entered the house, it turned out to be true, Arumi was talking and laughing together with everyone.
"what question it is, yes I tried to be able to be airy to share, yes even though it was difficult, so mbak came to mock me only,"
"ha-ha-ha of course not, I was making sponge cake rolls, do you want to try it calm down I did not make it with poison," said Sukma who saw Geno immediately rise.
but when Arumi wants to eat, Geno pulls the cake and checks it all before it is eaten by Arumi.
While Sukma was not surprised anyway it was how the servants work in the Harem palace.
"why the name of this house is Harem palace, now it's just you and Yanti, why not ask Father Heru to change it, so it's better to say,"
"well I understand later let me talk, continue now mbak want what the hell really, no way a mbak Sukma suddenly came here without any purpose,"
"you and your husband really can't be lied to, well I can't hide it anymore, I've been teaching the people and it's been a lot of fun,"
"may I come tomorrow, I'm too idle at home,"
"of course, but remember the rules of the harem palace when going out of the house,"
"yes, thank you."
The atmosphere of the night felt very quiet, Arumi just sat down and saw some mbok mban who wara-wiri finish the job.
While he did nothing just sit back at home, if usually he would disturb Father Heru.
Now she felt very lonely, and could not make her husband upset
"the stone is also one day, but why does my heart miss it so much" murmured Arumi sadly.
While on the ship that was still in the middle of the sea, Father Heru went into his room with Yanti
The woman was already wearing a change of clothes, Father Heru also looked coldly at the woman.
"do you want a massage or something?" ask Yanti in a soft voice.
"have you rested, because our journey is still far away, but I want to ask you something, your spa feels so envious of Arumi?"
"of course kang mas, Mbak Arumi was so loved, while Lestari and I were like a display that only Romo saw at a glance, and then ignored," said Yanti ventured.
"honestly, I'm not interested in other women after having Arumi, sorry but I'm not*** seeing all of you,"
"what did Father mean, wanted to make me an untouchable wife to death, like mbak Sukma what my fate would be like that,"
"sorry but I can't give you what you expect, but I can guarantee you one thing, if you like someone, I can let you go to marry him, and I'll give you enough money as compensation, so you can think about it carefully" said Father Heru.
It makes her relieved also makes her hurt, because she was just thrown away.
Indeed, there are men who want to be with widows, even though widows are virgins, but the predicate will stick forever and it is difficult to find a sincere person.
Father Heru chose to sleep in another room and asked Setu mbok to accompany Yanti to rest.
Arumi still can not sleep and chose to hug the last clothes in her husband's new clothes she can sleep unconsciously .
that night Geno deployed many tiles on guard, even in Arumi's room alone there were two mbok mban who also stood guard to protect Nyai's house.
in the village there are patrols of suspicious people, especially newcomers in the village.
