As the Villainess’ Final Crony, I’ll Follow Her to the End!
15* It was your big sister.
"Sister, sister, sister, I'll give you mine!
When I say this in a cheerful voice, the auburn-haired, droopy-eyed knight puts a three-eyed raisin sconce on my plate.
"Oh, my goodness, is that okay, Edward? You have your own portion, so be yourself. Unlike my sister, who only grows sideways, you can still grow taller.
But I guess I put it on a plate, hoping it would please him. My brother said, "But ......," and was dispirited. Oh, this is sly. That's cute, my brother.
In the end, we came to a compromise: "Well, let's do half a rub," my brother said, "I'm going to do half a rub with you, sister! And with a big smile on his face, he pressed his head into my lap. I'm a droopy-eyed kitten, that's what I am.
For the past two weeks, instead of going to the Redmayne house after school, I've been holding a tea party with my brother in the greenhouse in the garden of the house, just the two of us. The reason why she's with her brother, who she feels is not good at tea alone, is because when she's alone, her mother appears out of nowhere with a portrait of her matchmaking partner.
So I asked this little knight, "Will you protect me like you did the other day?" When I asked him to help me, he gladly accepted. It's a good thing that the knight is willing to chase me away when I approach this greenhouse.
I know that Sophia-sama and Barkhorn-sama are wondering why I don't appear in their mansions on weekdays as well as weekends, but they have the pride of being aristocrats who do not talk about it.
It's a good thing that I've decided to behave as usual at the school and gradually distance myself from the Redmayne family for the remaining time until the graduation ball.
In addition, I don't want to displease my lovely knight, I want to pass the month and three weeks until the graduation ball quietly in a sanctuary without my parents and servants.
Two weeks ago, on that day, I was "heartbroken" by Master Austin. I was too upset to notice immediately afterwards, but I realized it when I got home, and this time it was so awkward that I couldn't go to see him.
I wonder how he feels about my not visiting him when I usually show up the next day with a blank look on my face after a fight: ...... We are "too nothing" to be called anything. We've been together for ten years and we've had nothing, so I'm sure we'll have nothing in the future.
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't hurt. But when I got away from him, I realized that everything was too different in terms of appearance and family size. Before I knew it, I was in the [state of misunderstanding] that I should have told myself so much about.
Nevertheless, it's a mystery to me whether this was love or not, since my appetite has not waned a bit in this way. I'm not sure if it's just because we've spent so much time together that I'm under the illusion that it's love.
It's a good thing that you're not going to have to worry about the fact that you're not going to have to worry about the fact that you're not going to have to worry about the fact that you're not going to have to worry about the fact that you're not going to have to worry about the fact that you're not going to have to worry about it. I'm not a fan of the Redmayne family and I'm not a fan of the Redmayne family. ...... I'm not a good sister.
It's not only that, but it's also that, from now on, they're going to be estranged from not only Sofia and Austen, but also from Barkhorn, who was a more humble member of the family than I was.
It's a good thing that you're not going to be able to get away with it.
The words slipped out of my mouth at an unexpected moment, and my brother, who had his head pressed against my lap, looked up. The eyes of a child who is staring at me, it's uncomfortable, as if he can see through everything.
I tried to be as calm as possible so that he wouldn't realize how uncomfortable he was, and said, "These scones are so good, you'll eat them up soon, won't you? And when I laugh, my brother says proudly, "It's okay! If you eat it all, I'll come back to you with another pinch for you," he said.
Surprised at the sudden burst of words from the adorable little brother's mouth, downtown, "Piggyback ......, Edward, where did you learn such a wild word? And when I called out to him, he said, "Shit! The expression on his face.
I'm not a fan of it, but I'm not a fan of my brother, so much so that in the past two weeks, I've become less bitter about him, laughing at his childlike lightness of speech and finding it endearing. It's surprisingly difficult to dislike a creature that spoils you unconditionally.
"Hey, where did my trusty knight learned to say such manly words? I won't tell your father or mother, so please just tell your sister?
When I stroked my forehead to scoop up my bangs, my brother said, "You're not mad, sister? Are you sure you can keep it a secret from your fathers? I'm not a fan of this.
I'm not sure if this is a signal that my younger brother, the future heir to the estate, is feeling stress in his own way, because he has been studying more than me since he was younger than me, and even though he is five years old, he is still young compared to other aristocratic children of the same age.
It's only in the last two weeks that I've been able to notice such things. I remembered that I was her sister as well as Sophia's crony.
I'm not angry as long as you haven't done anything wrong. I'm just worried about my little brother.
The lines that might have felt blunt before, now honestly familiar to the mind. I picked up my brother, who smelled like the sun, in my lap and rubbed my cheek on his soft cheek, and he happily wrapped his arms around my neck and hugged me. I'm sure you'll be popular in the future.
You should not marry a man who wants a knighthood, after daring Master Austin so much and getting in the way of your brother in the future. You will be able to find a card that can be used to cut off a baronetcy in the eyes of those who are barons.
And a man who wants to climb the ladder of power by making me, with my appearance, his wife, is definitely not allowed in the family. I don't want an enemy who I know from the beginning will only be a flashpoint later on.
For a while, the younger brother, satisfied with the situation, said with a happy expression, "I'll tell you my secret, sister. I'm going to tell you my secret, sister. And jumped off my lap and led me to a secret place .......
Somewhere along the way, my high-minded belief that it was just a child's attempt was betrayed, and I was impressed by my oblique brother's way of letting off steam and his unexpected collaborators.
*****
How do you like it, young lady? We buy some of the ingredients we use in the mansion from these stores.
So says the head chef of the house, who is not dressed in his usual work clothes, smiling boldly. I'm sure you'll be able to find a lot of people who are interested in this kind of thing.
It's really the first time I've been to the ...... marketplace, but it's very busy. It's not just a matter of time before you'll be able to get your hands on a new pair of shoes.
When I responded, honestly moved, Jeffries replied, "I'm sure you are. The boy and the lady are so serious. You need to relax once in a while," he says, breaking his face. Then the stern face became gentle.
The day before, my brother showed me a place to relax. It was the kitchen of the Evans family, or, to be more precise, the outside world where he was taken by the head cooks there. Apparently, his brother had been sneaking out of the mansion every now and then, as a relative of Jeffries'.
The temperature is thick with a hint of winter and the marketplace is as lively as it has been in a long time. I can't help but laugh when I hear some of the shopkeepers talking in a wild manner, just like my brother used to do.
I'd love to go with you, but the greenhouse must be empty. I'll chase everyone away and you can have a lot of fun.
As I strolled through the marketplace, thanking my brother for sending me off an hour ago, I was intrigued by the array of unusual items on display, and I wondered if my brother, who I thought was still young, had been exposed to the vibrancy of downtown before me. My brother, who I thought was still young, may know more about the world than I do, considering that he was exposed to the vibrancy of downtown before I was.
I had planned to go back to the house after I finished buying nuts and dried fruits for baked goods, and I was going to go back to the house while I didn't find out I had slipped out.
Jefferies said, "Well, it's just one and I'll come back tomorrow to buy it," but the item was my brother's favorite, raisins.
I was a little troubled, but I said to Jeffries, "You're not going to be able to go with me, and I'll be over there waiting for you to get it. I asked him to come back. While waiting for his return, I was sitting on a bench at the edge of the marketplace, gazing at people passing by on the street without a care in the world, when I spotted a couple of people in some kind of dispute out of the corner of my eye.
It's not an unusual encounter between two young lovers. I was about to stand up to get a closer look at them, when someone suddenly grabbed me from behind and pulled me tightly by the shoulders.
I was so surprised that I didn't have time to scream before I turned around and saw, "Hey, hey, what are you doing here without an escort, you supposedly Viscountess? And then Mr. Barkhorn ...... who speaks to me aloofly, behind me. In front of it, he grabbed my shoulder so tightly that his fingers dug into it - .......
It's a good day, Mr. Austin?
The man who hadn't called me by that name in a long time in a hushed voice made no effort to hide his annoyance. It was my first love and my first broken heart, Lady Austin herself.
