The boys continue to study while biting into their potatoes!
“Dear Cain, boys, and girls. Are you studying?”
A cool voice called out to Cain and his friends, who had occupied a round table in the cafeteria and were studying while biting into dried sweet potatoes.
When they looked up, they saw Sillylea and her friend standing there holding a tray with a cake set on it.
“Lady Sillylea. Miss Yule Phyllis. How are you doing? We were studying, but we were having a lively conversation on another topic.”
Aruarat smiled and stood up while saying so.
Seeing Aruarat get up, the remaining three stood up as well.
“Let’s come together. I’ll put those desks together.”
“I’ll get some more drinks for us.”
Aruarat, Dindirana, and Cain lift the round table next to them and brought it over.
Gelatoni walks quickly to the order counter to get drinks. He is an aristocrat, so he doesn’t run.
Aruarat and Dindirana, who had also brought chairs when they put the two tables together, seated the two ladies in the chairs.
Since they are the sons of a marquis, they naturally pulled out the chairs and escorted them gracefully.
In the meantime, Gelatoni returned with a tray with four cups on it.
“What were you talking about when you took a break from your studies?”
Sillylea spoke to me as she cut a small piece of cake. Miss Yule Phyllis also lifted her cup of tea and put it to her mouth, but I could see that her ears were turned toward me.
“It’s about the grandfather of Aru.”
“Ah, Count Divan’s first love…..”
Cain was impressed by the fact that the title of the love story came out of Sillylea’s mouth, and he wondered if it was really a famous story.
Yule Phyllis also nodded her head as she put her cup back on the table.
“With a strong will, he refused a marriage to stabilize the country that His Majesty proposed, and married the daughter of a commoner’s flower shop after a great romance. it’s romantic.”
“Well, it’s not really the florist’s daughter, but the daughter of a wealthy farmer in his domain. She was apparently a woman who put a lot of effort into managing her flower garden and developing new kinds of flowers, so maybe you’re not far off.”
“She’s not a dreamer.”
“I heard she had a great love affair, so that’s good.”
Yule Phyllis seemed to have finished reading. And Aruarat is destroying that dream.
“So we were talking about the time to introduce polygamy for nobles above the rank of marquis and whether it wouldn’t cause a family disaster.” Read the most updated version of this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at Novel Multiverse – “NovelMultiverse dot com”
Cain corrects the direction of the conversation.
He wanted to make sure that Diana would not, by any chance, become Julien’s wife. This was an opportunity to gather information.
“Dindirana will have a younger brother or sister in the winter? How many?”
Yule Phyllis asked the same question to Gelatoni just a few minutes ago.
“The fifth. Mother Ali… Uhm, it’s the third wife’s child. We have a strict rule that the son of the first wife is the heir to the throne, and all the mothers get along well with each other, so there will probably not be a family uproar.”
“Din’s father must be a very loving man.”
Sillylea looked a little sad, but it was only for a moment, and the next moment she blinked and had a clear smile on her face.
“Aru’s house, huh? Co-owner? Right?”
Cain pointed water at Aruarat.
Aruarat slowly chewed a bite of dried sweet potato in his mouth, swallowed it, and blinked.
“And even then, they leave their jobs when they get married somewhere else. No matter how far you go, all you do is support someone else’s work. That’s why I want to turn the economy around with my own hands! I want to develop the land and reform agriculture to make my territory rich! There is no place for talented women who want to make the most of their abilities. That’s where my father saw the opportunity.”
“Oh, that’s an interesting story.”
Sillylea looked at Aruarat’s profile with her eyes wide open. Aruarat noticed this, but perhaps embarrassed, he did not look back at Sillylea and continued speaking while looking at Cain’s face.
“I heard that even if you try to appoint someone as a land administrator or a land agent, there is opposition to the appointment, or even if you do appoint someone, the people under you don’t listen to you because you are a woman. But if you go out in the field with the title of “wife of the lord,” no one can say no to you, right? Lily and Merry are doing a fine job of running the estate. And as a mother, she takes good care of me and my brother, too.”
“The Marquise of Aru’s place is very well known in the social world, isn’t she?”
“It’s already a proper division of roles…This dried potato is delicious, isn’t it? If Lily made it into a stick, wouldn’t it be possible to serve it as a snack rather than as preserved food or military supplies? She made it as a test”
I picked up a new dried sweet potato and spun it around with my fingertips, then bit into it.
Before I knew it, the dried sweet potato on the table was gone. It was sticky, sweet, and delicious.
“It stuck to my teeth a little bit. It was delicious. Thank you, Aru.”
Cain smiled and thanked Aruarat, who replied, “You’re welcome,” with a blush on his cheeks.
“Well, Julien, right now, you don’t feel like either of those things. Whether you hire someone who will support your work, or you can hire someone who can give you a proper affection,… the power balance of the nobility, or loyalty to the royal family. You don’t seem to think much about things like that.”
Gelatoni glanced at Sillylea with an apologetic look.
“Julien, you also have a guideline for choosing a woman, don’t you?… It’s not a guideline at all for whether or not she will be useful to the nation.”
When Sillylea said this, Yule Phyllis and the four boys nodded deeply.
“Big breasts…”
「「「「 “A girl with big boobs” 」」」」
Yule Phyllis quietly stood up and dropped her knuckles on each of the four boys’ heads in turn.
