Lesson 2: Sylvia's Gift Consultation
"So, you came to talk to me?
"Yeah......"
After finishing my consultation with my mother-in-law, it meant that the three of us would discuss it and think of presents for each of us.
I just had to talk to someone, even if I was worried about it by myself, and they didn't come up with any answers.
In my case, I decided to consult my real mother.
"What kind of gift was your mother giving your father?
There are people in front of me who are more experienced in life than I am.
I should have asked my mother-in-law what gift she gave my father-in-law, too, but I wasn't in a very good mood to go back to asking.
"Because I know. That my mother and father were childhood friendly in the neighboring village and that they were definitely playing together when one of them went on holiday. When my father went to the city to fulfill his dream of becoming an adventurer, he waited like a wife waiting for her husband to return, but he kept on living like that until I could."
"Duh, how could you tell such an old story!?
It was a famous story about a village.
Even so, it felt like your grandfather and grandmother generation missed the old days and made me, my daughter, sound like an old story back then.
The young father arrived in Kamai village from somewhere with his mother, earning his living while farming with his mother, and met his mother, who came to visit with several friends from the neighbouring village on an occasional holiday.
Despite our mutual awareness, we went to the city to dream of winning a thousand bucks and become adventurers without making any special progress.
He was the father who left for the city, but as I recall, he came home sometimes, and even though he had created a sweet space with his mother every time he came back, he was not married because it was a day to act as an adventurer.
But that was also until he discovered that he was pregnant with me, and his father finally decided to marry me when he found out about his mother's pregnancy.
My grandfathers in the village were happy to tell me how I was until I was born like that.
"Oh, those people..."
My mother was leaning over her face with both hands from embarrassment.
It is a cover of light that I too do well.
It must be like telling your parents' memories to a daughter you know for a grandfather or grandmother who was in the village, but it must be an embarrassing topic for the party.
At a young age when I was listening, I said to my parents' love stories, 'Will someone like that show up to me one day?' I was listening with a little admiration.
But now that I know a lot about my father's past, I can't just listen with admiration like I used to.
I've already heard and know that my father, as a child of bandits, used to unlock traps, etc. Such a father came to the village with his mother - his late grandmother. Besides, I don't have a father.
Looks like my father and grandmother, who washed their feet from the bandits, started their lives in the village, given all the circumstances. But that life should have been tough. Anyway, until then, farming should have been a hard task for someone who was a bandit. Besides, my grandmother had to raise her father by herself, so life should have been more painful than my house.
It was because I watched my grandmother like that that that my father set out to be an adventurer who seemed to use his skills.
The past, which was probably also a bandit for refusing to marry a mother I liked, is affecting me.
Nevertheless, there are no parties already.
After all, it is only my speculation about my father's past and so on.
"So, it was a birthday present consultation."
Return to birthday presents to help resurrected mothers get off topic from embarrassment.
I agree that I can ask about birthday presents because I can't waste only two days of my time either.
"As Sylvia knows, since we got married, we haven't done much more than we usually do to excite the ingredients and make dinner."
"All I want to hear is before I get married."
I generally know what kind of life I've had since I got married.
My parents got married because I was able to be between them in the first place, so only two of them should have had short marriages.
"Beh, stick..."
But my mother's not going to tell me all about it.
"Mother?"
When I was surprised to ask, my mother began to open her heavy mouth.
"My father was a man who would fly all over the place as an adventurer, but only one day when we had each other's birthday and a village festival would he be sure to come home. So what kind of adventure have we been having, drinking and laughing at each other was our birthday celebration?"
Only birthdays are always spent together.
It was kind of a dusty birthday present.
But I don't know why my mother said that.
"... the tip is my birthday and my father's."
Uh?
My birthday is in July and my father's birthday is in October...... Oh!
"Looks like you got it. I can't believe this is all you understand. Sylvia's grown up."
My mother is happy with my growth, but that's not what I'm talking about.
"When we're drinking with each other, we really are. Besides, I seem to have had a runaway habit for a long time, and Sylvia is just like me..."
"Was my runaway habit hereditary!?
I didn't want to know that fact.
And now in a word it has become known that I also have a runaway habit.
I don't usually have anything to do with it, but sometimes I can't help but attack. The other one should be stronger in stats, but if the three of us work together, we're just not going to be held back by the fact that we've managed.
"Oh, were you already attacking me? Then it won't be a problem."
"Yeah. We should never use that technique."
I have promised to set up an agreement between the three of us and not just pick that kind of gift.
That's also because for a few days on the way home from the hot spring, your husband avoided me and I felt a distance between you and your husband. The reason would undoubtedly be what happened the second night.
That's why I don't go out on hard means for a while.
"If that's the case, you can try it with what you're good at."
"What are you good at?
"It's hard to understand because you're dressed like that."
I'm wearing easy-to-move clothes as an adventurer so I can go all over the city today to find gifts. There's just not enough room to explore the various stores with made-up clothes.
"Get dressed as a maid."
"Ha..."
Store the clothes you wore in an instant in the storage ring and remove the maid clothes you usually wear. The time taken is for a moment.
"It's amazing technology."
My mother is surprised that I changed in an instant.
"Well, if you changed into that dress, you'd be aware, but now you're a faithful maid to Mr. Mars"
"Well..."
"What does Sylvia do in those clothes from time to time?
"What..."
Cleaning, laundry, cooking - housework in general.
I've only used it in combat once, but the only time I really used it was when I fought with only my family.
"I've been a daughter for a long time taking the initiative to help me and have had no problems with chores, but since I started working as a maid, my strength has improved dramatically. I think we should use that power as a gift. So let's decide to make something."
"Even if I say I'll make it..."
I cook all the time.
I make it with my two mothers and sister while I'm at the mansion, but at the camp, your husband is basically supposed to be eating my food all the time because I'm supposed to be in charge of cooking. Besides, the ingredients we use thanks to the financial affordability are also made from quality objects that were not conceivable when we were in the village.
I don't think a meal would be a gift now.
"Don't worry. Because I'm going to make things that I don't normally make."
"It's..."
When my mother told me what to make, I decided to go out with my mother to buy out the ingredients she needed to cook.
