Chapter 73

I am Turi, 8 years old.

My sister, Mine, has decided to go to the temple as a shrine maiden apprentice. It seems that he no longer dies from eating and no longer was thrown into an orphanage as a gray priestess. I was wondering when Mine would disappear, but I’m really happy that it was gone.

The day after my father and mother were called to the temple, Mine went to Benno’s shop to discuss the priest’s measures. By the way, he said he would decide the day to meet with Corinna-sama.

Before, only Mine was invited and I was an answering machine, but this time asks me to go with me.

Oh, fun ~. My mine is a nice girl! I went to Korinna-sama’s house and I’m proud of my colleagues in the workshop. Ufufu.

Corinna-san is a great person who has had his own workshop since he was an adult and is making costumes after receiving orders from aristocrats. For an apprentice like me, I’m a longing person who wants to be that kind of wind sometime far from that blue sky.

The fact that a wonderful husband got a passionate marriage was also reported among the lancers, as in the story of the bard. Corinna-sama, who is loved and cherished by the rumor that she abandoned herself as a merchant for Corinna-sama, abandoned her wealth, and got married, is the ideal mass for the girl.

What kind of person is Corinna-sama? I said that Mine is a gentle and beautiful person.

“Turi, right now, Corinna-san, I’m sure you guys would like me to tell you. Please come tomorrow afternoon.”

I wonder if he came home a little hurry, but his breath blew and Mine jumped into the front door. After saying that with a big smile, Mine goes to the spot.

“Mine !?”

“Uh … I’m sorry I wanted to tell Turi so quickly that I did too much work.”

“If you can’t go tomorrow, you’ll be in trouble. Sit down and take a rest.”

Mine sits with her weight on the table in a slender state. The glossy scarlet hair fell off.

Mine tries various things and gradually gains physical strength, but does not become strong or grow at all. I can’t help worrying because I can only see it about 4 years old.

Even if it was the same year as Lutz, it was only visible to brothers and sisters, and recently when I went to the forest, two younger children were taken care of, and I was depressed.

Mine is not fragile because she eats, but she seems weak even after eating. Lutz said during this time that it was different from Frida who had the same illness.

“… Mu, did you feel better?”

Mine stood up and began to move while holding down the temple and temple.

In your favorite bag, put your clothes, hair ornaments and thin crochet carefully wrapped and wrapped in a cloth so as not to get dirty. When I realized I was ready for tomorrow, I asked Mine.

“Mine, what am I to prepare?”

“Well, I don’t have anything in particular … I’m sorry, so why not go clean with Linshan?”

“Yeah!”

rinse my hair with my linshan. I hadn’t washed so often before, but recently I have come to think that I have to be clean.

Even in the workshop, only people who are beautiful will guide or talk to customers when they come.

“That’s Mine. I was assigned the first time guide today.”

“Really? Good, Turi”

“Thanks to Mine”

When I complained that only a beautiful person would come to meet with the customer when I was beautiful, “The first impression is important for the business of the customer. If you want to sell your face to the customer, you should pay attention to the dirt and appearance of the Turi. ”

Besides, I was told that it would be better to wear work clothes that could be seen by customers and put on an apron with sleeves if you didn’t want to get dirty. If you remove it before you guide, you’ll get beautiful work clothes.

After incorporating Mine’s advice, the job of giving customers a look began to turn around.

“It’s right now”

Talking about each other’s events to each other and wiping her hair carefully, her mother came back. Watching the two of us wiping their hair or combing them with a comb, lightly look out.

“Oh, are you using Linshan? … Maybe?”

“Yeah, because tomorrow I will go to Mr. Corinna”

The mother who heard Mine’s words pressed her cooking number on us and started washing her hair eagerly with a serious look. Before I met Corinna, I knew that I wanted to be as clean as possible, so I decided to give up and change shoulders.

“I’m going to go tomorrow with new summer clothes that I just made”

“Like, it looks cool and cute”

The surplus cloth that I didn’t make Mine’s fine clothes turned into my summer clothes. Unlike Mine, I grow fast and I can’t wear clothes in no time.

Since there was not enough cloth for my clothes, the length was added by stitching several kinds of cloth like patchwork only at the bottom of the skirt. It’s like a decoration, it’s pretty cute and my favorite.

Do you think Korinna-sama is cute too?

The next day, we left home early so that we could meet the promise even if we matched the speed of Mine.

If you cross the central square and go north, the clothes of people coming and going will be rich and people who use plenty of cloth will start to come out. I rarely come to the north, so I looked down at my clothes and was worried about floating around.

My mom seems to be a little worried with me. Mine alone is full of energy without any tension. It’s slow to walk.

“Corinna’s house is on Benno’s shop”

I noticed that. I didn’t feel it because I was just listening to the daily events, but Mine is walking around with Rutz on a daily basis. I couldn’t be nervous.

“Oh, how should I say hello?”

“First, nice to meet you, thank you for inviting me, and my daughter is taking care of me, Benno and Marc.”

Mine returns to the mother who is nervous. Did you remember that at the gates and shops that we don’t usually use greetings, they come out immediately? There is no hesitation.

“Mine, what am I? How can I say hello?”

“Turi should only laugh cutely. Because I was looking forward to it, no one would be pleased with Turi.”

Mine said, laughing.

My mother and I walk while practicing greetings. Mine, who walks in apprenticeship while looking at us happily, is familiar with me.

I felt that there was a figure of Mine that I didn’t know, and I felt a little irritated and weird.

“Corinna’s, Hello ~”

Unlike my mom and trembling trembling trembling every time I go up the stairs, Mine hits the door in a familiar manner.

Wait a moment. I’m still ready!

“Come on, Maine. Welcome, Maine’s mother and sister. Corinna. Please come in.”

It was a cute and adorable woman who opened the door before I was ready. He was much younger and more beautiful than I imagined.

Light cream-colored hair that collects the light of the moon is glossy, and its soft, thin silvery-gray eyes look very gentle. It was an ideal style that looked pale and pale, but the style was very good, the place where it came out was sharp, and the waistline was tight.

“Colinna, nice to meet you. My name is Ein, the mother of Mine. Thank you for inviting me today.”

Talk to the mother that she was practicing just a little while bending her knees and slightly lowering her hips. I also greeted her while imitating her mother.

“Nice to meet you, Corinna-sama, I am Turi. I was really looking forward to it. I am glad to meet you.”

“I was also looking forward to it. Mine-chan’s sunny clothes were so conspicuous and nice to see from the distance, so I’d like you to show them.

Corinna-sama’s smile makes me laugh together. A warm smile like the spring sun.

“Please wait here because I will prepare tea”

The room passed by Corinna-san seems to be a room where she works, and there were a lot of beautifully embroidered cloths and sample clothes made by Corinna-san. A very luxurious room with lots of decorations. There are two tables, one for talking and the other for working in the back. It’s not comparable to a house that can do everything in the kitchen.

Kyaa! Nice ~!

My eyes and my mother are nailed to clothes and colorful tapestry on the wall. I didn’t expect to see such a beautiful thing.

Look around one by one while looking around. Everything is polite and vibrant in color, and the designs of the clothes that are displayed are completely different from the clothes I wear. Sighing the exclamation, I stared at the decorated clothes.

“Beautiful … How can I make such clothes? I can’t think of it at all. Practice after all?”

“Technology is important, but it’s important to see a lot of good things to come up with.”

Mine turned his golden eyes over the seat while looking tired. I turn around in unexpected words.

“What does Mine mean?”

“I can’t think of what kind of clothes the rich people like, and what the current fashion is. You’re born rich, so you’re surrounded by nature and good things.” That ’s why I know good things. ”

“Well then, can’t I do it?”

When I felt like it was said that it would be useless, I dropped my shoulders and shook my head as Mine said, “No.”

“It may be important to go to the forest on a holiday, but if you can, take a walk from the central square to the north. There are lots of shops to use, because there are people in various clothes.It will be helpful to compare and examine the colors and designs that are popular. “

Even if I went to the forest on a holiday, I didn’t go north. I have been to the north of the main square only to the point where I can count with one hand. If you go to the rich, you can get information about what’s popular among the rich. I didn’t notice that either.

“After all, are these tapestry patterns and this embroidery flower the thing you can get in the forest? If you look closely at these things, it’s useful when you think about design.”

“… I understand. Try it out.”

Mine seems to be looking at clothes and decorations from a completely different perspective. Is the difference between me and Mine that is floating beautifully the difference between craftsmen and merchants?

I started to stare at Korinna-sama’s work, holding down my mind and wondering if I could still steal it.

“Well, Turi. It’s a little embarrassing to see it so much”

Corinna-sama said, entering the room with a subordinate woman.

“It’s unusual because it’s a type of clothing that I don’t see. I’m apprentice apprentices, but I can’t leave a big thing like clothes yet …”

Recently, it has finally become possible to sew inconspicuous parts of the product, but it is still a long way to sew clothes on its own.

“Practicing the basics is important. If you can’t sew carefully with the seams aligned, you won’t be beautiful clothes.”

“I’ll do my best. Corinna-sama. How do you sew this part?”

“This is …”

Corinna explained about each dress while a subordinate woman brought tea and sweets and prepared them at the table. Unexpectedly my mom also came and listened together. Only Mine was sitting at the table, not so interested.

“Please eat.”

“You will receive”

Korinna-sama recommended and took a sip of tea. Unlike our tea, the aroma is amazing. It seems to spread in the mouth.

“Delicious!”

“I’m glad you like it”

Corinna-sama smiles in my voice. Looking next to the family to ask for consent, my mother was delicious, but she was worried about the price, and Mine tasted lightly with her eyes closed.

“Please, too.”

It gently extrudes a plate of sweets with fruits and honey on a dough like bread. I picked up the cut one and put it in my mouth.

Hmm, it’s delicious, but if this is the case, the sweets that Mine taught me are better.

Mine recently taught Frida-chan how to make a dish and received sugar instead. And crepes, compotes, cookie mods, and other sweets that I don’t know are made together.

pudding wants to make sweets if it’s a little colder. It seems that it is not suitable for summer because it is useless if it is not cooled.

Other than that, I made something by immersing sugar, fruits and liquor in a bowl. It ’s a winter sweetness with plenty of summer flavor. I’m looking forward to it now.

“It’s sweet and delicious. After all, I’m envious of being able to use plenty of honey”

Corinna-sama smiled when Mine said that while eating sweets.

“If you are interested, can you buy it? Benno has a bitter face”

“The pocket money is different from the workshop money”

After eating sweets, I started to spread my clothes immediately. Mother and Mine show off their clothes and explain how to fix them. Corinna-sama picks up her clothes and looks at them carefully, turning them over and turning their hems.

“I was surprised to do this.”

“It’s much easier than re-stitching from scratch”

Listening to Mine ’s explanation, Corinna-sama writes something on the wooden bill. It looked like Mine often wrote on stone or paper. Somehow I feel like I should learn the letters. I felt that something was cooler.

“This is a hair ornament. This is the first decoration I saw.”

Corinna-sama picked up Mine’s hair ornament while sogging. White small flowers sway.

“I made this white larger flower”

“Yes, it’s very beautiful, Turi”

praised by Corinna-sama, I broke my friendship. White fingertips trace the flowers.

“This hair ornament is very nice … I’d like to make an order in my workshop, is it okay?”

Korinna-sama smiled and leaned her head.

I don’t think I’ll love it as much as I want to make it in Korinna-sama’s workshop. When I felt so bright and said, “Of course!”, Mine shook his head earlier.

“It depends on the conditions”

“Chee, mine !?”

I couldn’t believe Mine who had a condition on the offer from Corinna-sama, so I took my eyes off, but Mine raised my hand and controlled me.

“Hair ornaments are an important winter handicraft and they are a source of income, so you can’t give me permission. If you really want to make them, you have to buy a right. 19459002]

My mind quickly got cold. Certainly, hair ornaments are a huge source of income. I earned a lot during the winter and now I can’t stop mine anymore.

“Now talk to Benno.”

When Corinna-sama rang the bell, a subordinate woman appeared and went to call Benno-san. Immediately I began to hear footsteps going up the stairs.

“Corinna, you seem to have been called, but … what’s Mine’s family? Nice to meet you, Corinna’s brother Benno”

Is this Benno who is taking care of Mine?

Gentle appearance of light-colored eyelashes like milk tea, with reddish brown eyes. Mr. Benno’s smile, which looks good on people, is similar to that of Corinna-sama, and the first greeting made me feel like a smiling and good person.

“Mine ’s mother, Efa. My daughter is always indebted”

“is Turi. Hello”

Celebrating my mother, I hurry and greet you. Benno, who smiled and smiled, looked down at Mine and raised his eyebrows.

“What is Mine, this time?”

“There was a request from Corinna-san. You want the right of hair ornaments. How much can you buy?”

“Business negotiations?”

“It’s a business talk”

Hum, the expression of Benno-san, who asked one, suddenly changed and became scared. The atmosphere suddenly changed when I became a merchant’s face. Sitting in a chair with a messy movement, staring at Mine with shining eyes.

“How about this?”

When Benno raised several fingers, Mine laughed with a nose.

“I don’t sell for that amount. It’s better to sell to Frida.”

Mine accepts Benno, who is scared even when looking sideways, as a matter of course without changing her facial expression. Rather, it appears to be joyfully fighting.

“Is Rutz supposed to sell the mine workshop?”

“What you made in the Mine workshop, right? Doesn’t it contain any rights or recipes?”

“Kuhura!”

Benno-san shouted as if he was angry, but I and my mother who were on the same table were surprised, but Mine just smiled and leaned.

“Speaking of that, Benno-san, how much does Linshan sell after all? Frida said, but when you sell a new right like no other, the price is from big coins. It seems to have been handed over at a very low price. Ufufu ~]

Listening to the story, I saw Mine as a merchant for the first time. If you look at it, it’s a big difference, or you’re overwhelmed by Mine, who interacts with a scary adult in such an atmosphere.

What should I do, my sister is scared.

I saw the scene where Mine was active in this way for the first time even though he was hot at home, and he started to heat up as soon as he moved and help was still useless. I’m honestly surprised.

I was aiming to apprentice a merchant in Mr. Benno’s shop, and he said he would stop because he wasn’t attached to the body, but he really wanted to do it? I feel very good.

“Look forward, come here”

“Eh? Eh?”

Korinna got up and headed to the table in the back of the room.

] After seeing their faces, my mother and I stood up and followed Kolinna. I’m worried about Mine, but it’s not the atmosphere that we can enter here.

“Benno brother seems to have a lot of fun because it seems to be long … Still, Mine is amazing. I can talk about business with that brother.”

Corinna sang while looking at the table over there. I knew the greatness of Mine for the first time.

I’m Mine’s older sister, but I didn’t know.

“Let’s leave the business story over there, let’s talk about sewing here. Were you talking about the shape of the skirt?”

“Yes! Please please”

Talk about business at the other table, talk about sewing while having tea at this table. Corinna-sama talked to the noble family about the clothes and decorations that are now in fashion.

There seems to be various ways to sew, and even after hearing the name, I can’t immediately figure out what kind of skirt it is. The words of sewing that do not come out at all even when talking with the apprentice of the workshop come up one after another in the story of Corinna.

“What is that?”

If you ask a question, Corinna will tell you gently. I was happy, but I was a little sad.

In the first year of apprenticeship, I didn’t think I didn’t know anything like that. Just listening to the story, I realized that I didn’t study enough about sewing. If you don’t practice and study more, I don’t think customers will be entrusted with making clothes.

“This is the shape of the dress that has begun to become popular”

Corinna-sama told me and showed me the dress that was being specially made. It seems to be a dress for a noble tea party. The sighs of excitement lie in the luster of the fabric, the thinness of the thread, and the stunning embroidery stabbed in various places.

“It’s very nice, but I can’t believe that the dress is decided for each use. I think it’s just a waste of money.”

“Yeah, yes, but when we go to sleep, when we go out, when we get dirty, we will wear all the different clothes?”

“Hey …”

Talking about that, there was a sound that stood up from a chair at a table over there.

Surprisingly, looking at the eyes, both Benno and Mine stand up and can be seen facing each other at a distance from the table.

“You are no longer cute”

“That is also the gift of Benno’s education”

“It ’s just extra wisdom …”

“It’s the merchant’s basic to improve the accuracy of information by purchasing information from multiple routes, isn’t it?”

“ While saying that, they are shaking hands with a smile that has something to include. Somehow black things came out from behind them and I felt like they were checking each other.

Yeah, I can never be a merchant.

Listening to the interaction between the two, I thought so, a sloppy Mine found us and rushed away.

“I’ve settled, tell Korinna how to make hair ornaments, mom”

Saying so, Mine comes to this table. Mine thanked the cold tea prepared by Corinna and reached out.

“Huh, my throat has dried up”

“Thank you very much. How much did you end up with? After all, there is a price setting here.”

後 After Mine glanced at her mother and me, she raised her fingers and showed her to Corinna. Corinna-sama takes a small breath and stares at her finger.

This is a merchant-specific signature. I don’t know what that means and it’s a bit brutal.

“In part of Korinna-san’s workshop, you seem to be able to make hair ornaments all year round.

P

“But I often stripped it off from Benno brother”

コ リ ン Colinna saw Mine as impressed. It seems that the movement of the finger showed the amount as expected.

“Hey Mine. How much is it?”

“Is it impossible to say?”

P

“It’s a reasonable price, I can’t say but I don’t want to say …”

“When I asked Mine to say“ Tell me ”several times with a crisp tone, Mine nodded with a quiet expression.

“… 1 large coin and 7 small coins”

“Did you say gold coins?”

I thought that it was about a large silver coin even if it was expensive, and I was shocked that my head was beaten up with an enormous amount of money. The mouth is dragged. My mother also looked at Mine with a tight face.

“It sounds like a great amount, but it’s a reasonable price when it comes to the degree of transfer of rights. It ’s not my personal pocket money with my money. ”

マ While Mine is desperately exchanging words one after another while shaking hands, I cannot understand Mine’s nerves that can exchange such a large amount of money.

Is it a big coin? I say it’s not personal money, but how much Mine has! ?

Maybe, Mine was actually amazing! Is it better to do business than the temple?

My homework, the depth of sewing and the greatness of my sister.
