1132 The troubles of Lu's third sister ① ~ Consultation ~

The day after you were taken care of at Lilyn's, it was the 21st of the blue month.

Ai Fa and I woke up with the sunrise and returned to Fa's house with Pratica, rushing to work in the morning.

The schedule is quite tight because we spend a lot of time on the move instead of cleaning up the dinner. In the meantime, I skipped going to the watering area, washing up was done at the same time as bathing, and then I had to cut down the time for collecting firewood and herbs.

“I'm taking care of Fa's house, so I'll help you.”

And since the kind Platica offered to do so, it was possible to collect more firewood and vanilla than usual, even though it was cut up in a shorter time than usual.

If you go back to Fa's house, you can start a business at the stall.

I was in no hurry at all, but this was nothing compared to the price of having a good time at Lilyn's house.

After that, nothing unexpected happened, and we decided to aim for Luu's settlement on time -- something unexpected was waiting for you. At the entrance to Luu's settlement, a girl with bright red hair and a ponytail was waiting for her.

"Hey, Lara-Lou. What's wrong with that place?"

"What's the matter? I've been waiting for Asta."

When I got off the wagon stand, Lara-Lou whipped her ears.

"Today's study group is Fa's house, right?" Or will you go to Lilyn's house again? "

"No, I think it would be better to leave the handwriting for a few days, so I think I'll let you disturb me again after a while."

If that's the case, can you give me a little time before the study group?

Lara-Lou, who spoke like that, was a serious expression of herself.

It was originally Lara = Lou, who was a boy, so if she had a tight expression like that, it would be like a young hunter.

And of course, in my mind, yesterday's day, the words that Vina Luu-Lillin had told me came back to life.

"If Lara comes to Asta one day, can you give her a ride for consultation...?"

That's what Vina Luu-Lillin said.

And I said, "Sure."

"If I can help you, I will consult with you." It's okay after you finish doing business at the stall, right? "

"Yes. When the Astors come back, will you stop by Luu's village?" Then I'll go with you in Zidura's wagon. "

Lara-Lou then left the same face and said, "Thank you," and rushed back to the village.

The partitioner for today's stall was not Lara = Lou, but Reina = Lou. As usual, you were waiting for us in front of the main house.

"I've been waiting for you." Thank you again today. "

"Yes, thank you. The wagon belongs to Fafa."

Recently, it has been the practice for the Fa family to prepare two luggage carts, and to accompany personnel who do not ride on the luggage carts of the Lu family. This is because Tour-Din and his partner will also be on board, so two luggage carts will be required at the time of departure from the Fa's house.

Anyway, Lara = Luu really depended on me.

Lara = Luu was originally a class of people, but I have the impression that it has become more reliable since around the time she started to serve as a parlour for the stalls. It was a very proud story to be dependent on Lara = Lou---and I was worried about Lara = Lou.

(Recently, the events surrounding His Highness the Dakarmas and the disturbances of the Evil God Order have been quite muddle-headed. It's because I've scraped my nerves quite a bit to keep doing business at the stalls at the same time.)

Recently, moreover, it has become impossible to use ingredients from Dalaym, so it has even increased the troublesome task of changing donations and checking the cost rate. In addition, in order to pay the tax, the sales and labor costs of the stalls must be properly booked and submitted to the appropriate agency in Genos.

The people on the edge of the forest were not familiar with these calculations, and it was presumably Zwei-Rutim and I were in charge of them - the Luws should have trained personnel to take over the work from Zwei-Rutim, rather than placing a burden on specific individuals.

(However, whether it's the cost ratio or the books, it's the job of the parlour to give out the numbers first. Besides, it must be a pile of unseen struggles to think about the rotation of the working kamado number and to communicate it to each house)

With the same amount of work to do, I was made more painful than anyone else.

But, well, I've never had so much trouble doing business in my hometown. Now that I had the writing tools, it was much easier to do such administrative work.

That's why the people of House Luu are so much harder than I am. Of course, what helped the Luu family was that even though Zwei = Rutim was strong in numbers - I was secretly impressed that the Luu bloodline were able to overcome those difficulties on their own.

(Besides, Lara = Luu feels very strongly that she accepts the troublesome work and wants Reina = Lu to concentrate on cooking. That should be even harder.)

If you can help Lara = Luu like that, I hope you will too.

That's how I came to the business of the day without everyone knowing.

Business is as good as ever.

The shadows of calamity were completely dispelled, and the legs of the guests remained unchanged. The "Giba's Grilled Balls" was popular, and there was no dissatisfaction with the way the ingredients changed due to the lack of ingredients.

It was Sanjula who was so solemnly working on it. A brilliant swordsman and young man who is a servant of the Lord Refreire of the House of Count Turan and brings blood to the east. After the noise of the Evil God Order subsided, he often visited the stalls again, but lately, he often came during the first rush in the morning, and there was not much interaction.

"Asta, I want to tell you one thing... I'm very sad about Refreire."

And Sanjura said it that way because it took some time for the ordered [Giba's Ball Grill] to finish.

Reflair? What are you so sad about?

"Of course, it's a forest-side settlement. Together with Refreire and Chiffon-Chel, I was looking forward to the forestside settlement, fun, and excitement... but it was overwhelmed by the royalty of Jagal and the Order of Evil Gods."

Chiffon-Cher and Sanjura returned to Genos along with the Southern Missions, which is more than two months old. As soon as Dakarmas returned home, Refreire insisted on inviting him to the forest.

"I see. Because of Mundt's ferocity, the refreire is still forced to endure, right?" As for you, it's almost time to stand still- "

“Really?” Sanjura stepped inside the stall. It is unusual for Sanjura to show this kind of appearance, who is always calm and not very prying-eye.

"Does Mundt's ferocity converge?" Do you want to have fun with the refreire, the forest? "

"The ferocious Mundt has almost disappeared, and even around the forest, it is difficult to figure out when to stop preventing Grigi's fruit juice. Perhaps, within a few days, your alertness will be lifted...."

"That way, I'll be refreshed and cheerful." I don't pray much... but I want to pray to the Western God. "

“Sanjura really cares about the refreire, doesn't she?”

There are many people around me who look embarrassed.

But Sanjula, with the usual smile on her face, nodded, "Yes."

"I'm alive, because of the reflair." Reflair's sadness is my sadness. ”

"Well then, I will pray that the sorrows of Refreire and Sanjura will be cleared up." Once Mundt's alert is lifted, the castle town will be informed, so we should decide on a date to invite him. ”

Then the conversation came to an end, and the "Giba Ball Grill" was completed.

Packed in a container that she brought with her, Sanjura bows “Thank you” and leaves. Marfila-Naham smiled as she poured new ingredients into the iron plate as the remaining balls were handed over to the people lining up behind Sanjura.

"I, I, I also hear that Mundt's danger is almost over. I can't wait to have a guest."

Yeah. If it's true, I'd like to invite the architects and [Silver Pot] as well.

So when the first rush came to an end in the morning, the next one was Dial.

"Asta! I asked that Sanjura person, but he will soon be allowed to come and go around the forest!?"

Rubbed against the stall, Diall's eyes shined like a puppy's.

While being soothed by this smiling figure, I will respond with "yes".

"Maybe, but I'm sure we'll be off alert in a few days." Then, Dialle will come to the forest too. "

"Hold on, nnhh! Anyway, I'll go with Refreire anyway! Even Asta doesn't have much trouble with that, does she?"

"I don't care which one." But it might be more fun to be busy. "

"Yeah, yeah! Ah, I'm looking forward to it!" The truth is, I want to go right now! "

Dial looked a lot in the mood.

When I think about it like that, Dialle turns a smile even brighter.

Almost there! The [Ball Cooker] is an iron plate, but I've sold out all 10 of the ones I brought to Genos!

Huh? Did you sell everything in the castle?

"Yeah! You're running low on ingredients right now, aren't you?" That's probably why castle chefs are so obsessed with developing new dishes! ”

It was said that high-end tarapas bought from the outside were distributed in the castle town, but there are parts of it that are not perfect. Moreover, no matter how high-quality the vegetables, they should not be equivalent to the freshness of Dalaymu, so it was thought that they had not been bought extensively so far.

"Even around the forest, there seems to be a little bit of a desire to buy this." I will order it all together sometime. "

"Yes! This will allow Genos to recover the cost of the mold!"... by the way, Dakarmas only took one! If all goes well, we might even get an order from the capital! "

I was looking forward to that story at the farewell dinner. I really wanted to buy up all the inventory, but I thought that would be in the way of Dial's business, so I weighed myself down. For the sake of honesty, His Highness Dakarmas is fair.

"In the near future, I'm going to make a sale in the station town!" Even Asta would be very grateful if she had the opportunity! "

"Yes, I understand. I'm relieved that Dial can't afford to lose."

"Heehee, thanks to Asta for devising a delightful cookware!" If you come up with anything else, let me know anytime! ”

Then Dialle took the food and walked away with a smile on his face.

Not only are the stalls selling well, but there is also plenty of interaction with visitors. Genos was badly damaged by the Order of Evil Gods, but now I have the impression that all the energy is needed to overcome it.

I finished my business with a sense of fulfillment and returned to the village on the edge of the forest.

When I arrived at the settlement of Ruu, Lara-Ruu was waiting for me there, as promised.

"Huh? What are you doing there, Lara?"

Reina-Lou, who stepped out of Lou's wagon, tilted her head strangely. Lara-Lou had already set up another Totosu Zidula wagon for the Lou family.

"I'm going out to Fa's house for a bit." I've got Mom's approval. "

"Lara's in Fa's house?" Eh, why? "

Reina-Lou seemed not to have heard of the situation, and she seemed to be deeply surprised.

In front of such a sister, Lara-Lou shrugged her shoulders with a sad face.

"I need to talk to Asta about my job as a partitionist." I don't think it's going to take long, so Sister Reina will be ready for business tomorrow. "

"Um, yeah. Of course, but... if you're talking about partitions, I should listen to them too."

"I'll tell you what you need to know." Well then, I'll go. "

Lara-Lou moves casually to the Odori stand.

Reina = Lou turned to her worried gaze, so I decided to give her a smile.

"I'm sure that some question has arisen about Lara = Lew." If anything happens, I'll tell Reina = Luu. "

"Yes, yes. I have no idea... but for now, Lara, please."

Then, as we were about to leave, Barsha rushed up to us. The costume of the women wears their own coat, and the sword is hanging on their waist.

"I was told by Meer Ray-Lou to accompany me." Mundt's disturbance seems to subside, but I think it's important to be cautious. "

"Huh? Because I can let Totos run along the forest road if I like, I won't be caught up by Mundt, right?"

"That's why you have to be very careful."... well, you suddenly told me that you wanted to go to Fa's house, so didn't you worry about Meer Ray-Lou? "

Barsha laughed cheerfully as Lara-Lou caught hold of her sinister face.

"Don't worry, I won't eavesdrop on your consultations." I'm out playing with my dogs, so you can talk to Asta as much as you want. "

So we finally headed to Fa's house.

Whether to return like this, or to attend the study group, Maiden is in Gilles' wagon. Having accepted Gilles' reins, I called out to Yun-Sudra, the luggage carrier, on the way.

"I have a little talk with Lara = Luu, so can you start the study group first?" In the meantime, I want you to tell me what you invented yesterday at Lilyn's house. "

"I understand." Everything that we invented yesterday was amazing, so we're all going to love it. ”

Yun-Sudra didn't seem surprised by Lara-Lou's behavior. Since Yun-Sudra also had many opportunities to ask for the role of stallkeeper, she could understand Lara-Lou's struggles correctly. Not to mention that Lara = Lou was 14 years old, so it should have been a pain in the ass.

When I arrived at Fa's house, I asked Yun-Sudra and the others to unload, and I invited Lara-Lou to the main house. And Barsha remained outside as promised, and stood bent with the Zilbezites.

"Well then, let's hear it." You need to talk to me about your job as a partitionist, right? "

"Yeah.... Asta's the only one who can talk like this."

So I thought it was a shame. Lara-Lou, who had her knees aligned on the rug in the hall, was reddening her cheeks for some reason.

Lara = Luu gazed at me with an angry face.

"So, it's impertinent to say something like this without consulting with me... can you put this story to Asta's chest as much as possible?" Of course, I'll tell you what I need to tell you, Raina-san and Mom. "

"Yeah. So, what about Ei = Fa?" Fa's house has a family training that he doesn't hide things. "

"If it's Ei = Fa, it doesn't matter."...... I don't know if Asta would want to make it Ei = Fa. "

It is more and more a mysterious wording.

When I was tilting my head, Lara = Lou repeated her words while reddening her face so that she could not beat her hair.

"Well then, I'll tell you... but I'm hoping to keep up the good work as a stallkeeper." Reina-san wants me to do my best for the food, so I want to take care of everything else. "

"Yeah. If it's Lara = Lou, I'm sure she'll be fine." I'm sure Lara = Luu is a good personality partitioner. "

"Really? Why do you think that?"

Lara = Luu stepped forward.

I've done my best to show you what I can.

"I've seen how hard Lara = Lou has been working so far, and I've seen it within my sight." For example, during the Easter Festival a year ago, when customers overflowed from a predetermined location, Lara = Lou responded immediately, right? Since then, I've always thought it was a big deal. "

"...... you've remembered so many old stories."

"That's how impressive it was that Lara = Lou was so active." I think that it is only when such an unforeseen situation occurs that that person's true nature will come to fruition. "

I wouldn't dare to say anything, but because Sheila = Lou, who was the partitioner at the time, had a temperament that was subtle, Lara = Lou seemed even more comfortable. Sheila = Luu and Reina = Luu were not overwhelming in terms of cooking, but it seemed that Lara = Luu was far better than the leadership that ruled the field.

"... I see. I was going to do my best, no matter who told me to do it... but I'm so glad that Asta told me that."

And Lara = Luu said that, and her face became even more red.

"Well then, let's get down to business..."

"Huh? Haven't you gotten to the point yet?"

"Shut up! Shut up and listen!"

These days, it was an unusual intuitive narrative of Lara-Ru. In other words, Lara-Lew was distracted.

I make up my mind and wait for Lara = Lou's words.

Lara-Lou put her right hand under her chest and said as she regulated her breathing.

"Actually, it's me... I'll be 15 soon." So, the truth is... when I turn 15..... "

And from there, it became a mosquito-like voice, and I couldn't even hear it because I was concentrating on my nerves.

"I'm sorry, what did you say?" Can you do me a favor already? "

"That's why! When I turned fifteen, I was going to be my daughter-in-law!"

I'm totally fucked.

Lara-Lou lying face down, roughly scratching her ponytail hair.

"Rudo-san was chilling, so Asta was lucky, wasn't she?" I... want to be Sin-Lou's companion. "

Um, yeah. If that happens, I'll do my best to celebrate.

"... but I want to do my best as a partitioner at the stall." That's why... you can't ask for a dowry right now. "

I was heartfeltly surprised and said, "Why? I asked."

"If I give you another wedding, you can continue your job as a parlour attendant, right?" Sheila = Luu, but I've been working hard for a while-- "

"However, I quickly had a child and decided to quit my job." That's why I took over the job. "

With her face still red, Lara-Lou recovered her very serious expression.

"Besides, even if I can't have children... I think I'll change my mind a bit if I give you a wedding. As Sin-Lou's daughter-in-law, you should feel that way if you don't work hard on your house... and you have to feel that way. I won't allow you to let Tali-Ru leave everything at home and let my business slip away."

I see, but that's exactly what Sheila-Lou was doing as a sidekick even at the wedding.

"That's why Sheila = Luu is amazing." I can't give you a wedding ceremony with Brother Darm, leave my house, start living alone with my mate... and do my job as a partitioner. "

"I see. I don't think so..."

"That's what I said!" If I give you a wedding... I'm going to be obsessed with you. "

I couldn't beat what I said before, but I managed to hear it.

"So, I'd like to talk to Asta... does Asta still have the same feelings towards Ai = Fa?"

"Huh? What is it?" Why are you talking about me all of a sudden? "

"Just answer me!" Even I'm so ashamed to die! What do you think I talked to Asta about!? "

And once he was furious, Lara-Lou shook her head like a child.

"I'm sorry, there's no such thing as consulting on your own." But I can only talk to Asta about this... please, can you answer me? "

"Yeah, yeah. What am I supposed to answer for?"

"That's how I feel about Ai = Fa." Eifa can't marry Asta to survive as a hunter, can she? Then you're just like me. I'm also trying to postpone the wedding to fulfill the role of partitioner..... "

Lara = Luu chewed her lips and stared at me like she was screaming.

"Asta likes Ei = Fa, right? You really want to give me a wedding, don't you? But because of Ai = Fa's convenience, I can't do what I want...... Still, how do you feel about Ai = Fa? Or have you already given up giving Ai = Fa her wedding?"

I see, that's what you're talking about.

When I gave him a smile, Lara-Lou finally wept in her eyes.

"I'm scared." What if Xin-Lu hates me... what if Xin-Lu starts seeing other daughters while I'm still alive... so I... "

"Sin-Lou's feelings can only be understood by Sin-Lou." But Lara-Lou didn't give up her wedding for the rest of her life, did she? "

"Yes. If I get older, I'll be able to do my stall work even if I give you a wedding like Sheila = Luu... but it's my fault..."

"I don't think that Lara = Lou or Ei = Fa are my fault. I think I know enough about the pleasure and irreplaceability of working hard."

That's what I told you.

"Besides, Sin-Lou is proud of his work as a hunter." You don't think I want to work hard. I can only tell how Xin-Lu feels... but I think I know how good Xin-Lu is. If it were Sin = Luu, I wouldn't let go of Lara = Luu's feelings. "

"... do you really think so?"

"I agree, and I can't imagine Lara-Lou and Sin-Lou getting married to someone else."

Lara = Lou smiled when I told her like that.

"I can't even imagine Asta and Ei = Fa being joined by separate opponents... how could Asta feel so strong?" If Ei = Fa decays in the forest, Asta's feelings will not be rewarded for life. "

"That's probably the same thing as Lara = Luu." Even Lara-Lou couldn't give her a wedding until she was 15, so she had to wait for Xin-Lou to return home safely, right? I just have to believe in Eifa and wait. "

"I see..." Lara-Lou nodded.

The tears in her eyes fell on her lap.

"I think we should talk to Sin-Lou about the rest."... when was Lara = Luu's birthday? "

"Twenty-five days, so four days from now."

"Ah, you're already close to that."

"That's right. I've always wanted to talk to Asta... but since it's a tasting party, it wasn't a consultation."

While saying so, Lara-Lou raised her face while lying down.

There was a clear smile like that of Lara-Lou.

"Thank you, Asta. I'll think about it tonight, and I'll talk to Sin-Lou tomorrow."

"Yeah, do your best." If it's Sin-Lou, I'm sure it'll be okay. "

At that point, I didn't have any concerns. If it was Sin-Lou, I wouldn't let go of Lara-Lou's feelings - no matter what anyone said, I believed in that.

Of course, Sin-Lou was the person I believed he was.

But... to resolve this story, we had to get through another turmoil.
