Side: a long time ago
After the middle of February there are more warm days, but this day was as cold as if it had turned back into winter. I think winter and spring are at best, and every day we follow the sun, we are approaching spring.
Elle and the belly child are doing well. If there is a concern, is there someone in the house who is beginning to notice? Looks like a lot of people notice it mainly people with childbirth experience. Although Plum, Shiqing's wife, has issued a warrant and so far there has been no problem.
"I don't know if I can ask something like this......, is Master El sick?
Oh, this is the first person I noticed outside the house. Winter. It was your city's nanny. Because he comes to us like every day. It would also be because of Elle's changing workload and watching the details.
In order to reduce Elle's mental burden, the fine case is handled by Merti on his behalf. Mr. Winter asked me to pay for it, and I asked him terribly.
"Actually, I might have had a child. There are still signs, I'm not sure."
You can't lie if you realize it. Though he looked surprised when I honestly told him the status quo, he was immediately pleased with the way he looked.
"Oh my God. Congratulations. I just think I'm sick..."
He worried about me a lot, including maybe asking. It's hard to hide it.
"Is it also passed on to Qingzhou?
"No, because everyone in Kuyuan's house has a hard mouth. So far..."
Just fine, see how much Elle rumors are spreading, but are you still okay? You were discussing the future with Melty earlier, weren't you?
"Should I speak to the Great Hall first?
"It's not about me pinching my mouth. However, El is always the one who walks with a horse. I wonder if that could be a rumor if it decreases."
Melty had asked Mr. Winter to go straight in. I have also decided that I should consult with Shiqing and make a report before it becomes a rumor. Winter is more familiar with the Oda family.
"Thank you. You should report it."
It's not even about being forced to hide it, is it? I was thinking about the timing of the report, but besides, it's not a good idea to hide what Winter found out here from Shinsu. She's not from us, she's from the Oda family.
Something like that bothered me a lot to ask. Let's keep going to the report immediately.
Me and Melty, who immediately climbed the castle in Qingzhou Castle, ask to take the next call to meet Shin-soo. I can barely wait when I ask for what I see. [M] Nevertheless, if you have a job or a complaint or someone other than the Oda family, it can be quite a wait.
Qingzhou Castle also has my room, so I decided to go in there and wait. It's cold today, so a servant of Qingzhou Castle brought me a firebowl. Warm up with Melty and everyone she has been offering.
"I'm aware you stand out, but you're all looking closely"
"That's right. It's more important to look at the desk."
Don't leave the mansion as far as El is concerned, or I'm not that nervous. There were just a few days when I wouldn't accompany you on cold days or bad weather. That's all.
Well, it's not a good idea to get pregnant women to work, and there are circumstances where it's not a good idea to get a pregnant Elle to work just for us, who is going to turn to indoor downwork depending on the easy work and the weather in the instructor.
If Elle was to have worked even if she was pregnant, she might not be able to turn the pregnant women into easy jobs or put them to rest in the future. Even El worked, so the flow that it's natural to work is troublesome. Because we stand out, we are especially careful not to.
"Is it just Melty today? How's it going?
I was able to meet Shinsu in no time. It just looks like Elle's absence made me wonder a little bit.
At last, I asked you to call Tochida and Nobunaga, and I also pay people. Shin-soo's expression becomes irritating when he wonders what happened.
"Actually, Elle may have gotten pregnant. I'm not sure that Ketty is, just because she might still be."
Well, it's a sign when it comes to just stopping the moon thing. Especially for those who come with the moon stuff precisely.
"Did you do it?"
Nobunaga and Uchida, who were suddenly called in, had a rude expression too, but when I reported it, the expression loosened with surprise. Shinsu looked really happy too.
"Good. It was really good."
I can even see you crying in front of Uchida. So much so that if I could report to my real parents who died in the original world, they might have been happy with me like this.
"Is that why there are times when Elle isn't around these days"
"Yes, I'm putting you to rest just in case"
Nobunaga was delighted, but at the same time he still seemed to remember that there were times when Elle wasn't there, and he seemed to understand why.
Apart from Qingzhou these days, the streets going to Krabby River, Tsushima and Hot Field are made of boat bridges and can be moved by carriage. There were times when Elle would come with me because traveling in the carriage was okay.
"The truth is, I thought I'd report it after I became certain."
"Why don't you let me know soon? Have you informed the main office?
"No, you haven't either..."
"Let him know soon. Everyone should be waiting."
I laughed a little in a soothing atmosphere, but I got angry. This may be the first time I've been pissed off by 'Takeshi'.
"I thought I'd let everyone care..."
"I don't know. Nevertheless, the child is a gift from heaven. As much as I wish you a safe pregnancy and birth, I want to do it."
Both Shinsu and Uchida are step-parents, or they treat me like a real parent. It's not uncommon not to live with a real child in this age. Sometimes I can't easily deal with them depending on my identity. He treats me with the same attitude as a real child if I think so.
My position has become great. No one else would treat me like a real parent and scold me at times.
"Elle is also my first child. I would be anxious. Don't expect too much."
"Yes, I understand."
Uchida worried me about Elle from a unique perspective of women. In fact, it looks like Elle is mixed with expectations and insecurity. I treat you as little as possible. [M] And then I'm asking Ketty and Pamela.
Not that it's counseling, but a bright, positive Pamela seems ideal for this matter. It's not like Ketty's dark, though. The character that brightens others is also Pamela's weapon.
"Spring is near. Good news. Let's celebrate."
As it was, Mr. Shin-soo was to be allowed to carry booze to celebrate and drink with him. Is the job better today?
But it's a good part of the Warring States era to be able to handle this kind of flexibility.
Celebrated by many. Well, I guess I put myself in that position, but I don't feel bad.
I sincerely feel good to be here in this day and age. I hope the child who is born also likes this era and Oozen.
