The Abandoned Baroness is one of the Black Knight’s favorites

The next day, Sofia was better prepared than usual.

Today is the day of the gathering of the clans.After gathering in the morning and having lunch with everyone, the owners are to attend a meeting, the accompanying wife and their daughters are to attend a tea party, and the children are to be taken care of by servants.Among them is Sophia, the Marquis, who runs the tea party.If I think so, my body gets stiff and nervous from now on.

"Sofia, I'm a little nervous."

Carina, who was brushing Sofia's hair, smiled bitterly and pulled the comb loosely.Broken hair falls sharply through the light of the sun.

Yeah, I guess so.

"Yes, smile more beautifully because the corner dress is ruined."

"Ugh... okay, thank you."

Certainly, the way you look, the way you've practiced, the dress you've made for today, will cry.

Today's outfit is a dark green velour dress for autumn.White laces are carefully knitted on the cuffs and hem.The dress spreads softly from the waist, giving a light impression against the appearance of warmth.The symbiotic ribbon on the neck makes the skin stand out as white.

Carina decorated her loosely woven hair with the same ribbon.The dark green is well reflected in the light brown color.Blue crystal stones were used for earrings and bracelets to reconcile with the ring and claim to be Gilbert's wife at the same time.

The magic cufflinks I received one day made me hide my dress.

Make a smile in the mirror.Over and over again, I finally got a smile that looked natural.

"You have a grand lady, right?"

"Yeah, good luck."

Christina worries about Sofia working as Marquis of Forster for the first time and says she can help if anything happens.Christina said it was because Gilbert's grandmother did the same when she first met her daughter-in-law.I can only thank the Marquis mistress for her care.

Somehow Sofia moved to Saloon.Carina leaves Sofia to accommodate visitors.Sofia made the same smile next to Gilbert as she did when she practiced in the mirror.

Yesterday's two groups were practiced, and we were able to finish welcoming guests without any problems.The welcome of fifteen groups of thirty or more was quite exhausting, but since everyone was generally favorable, there was little psychological burden.When I told Hans the story, I was told, as a matter of course, that there was no way to be rude to the wife of the main house.

Once gathered together in the salon, Sofia and Christina quietly called out to her servants.

"Is there a problem with the cafeteria?Are you sure you want to take the customer with you? "

"Yes, please."

The servant nodded in a familiar manner.

When Sofia hits Gilbert in the ear, Gilbert tells Hans to call.Hans' voice moved all the guests to the dining room.

An aperitif is transported and each speaks.Gilbert, the Marquis lord, was the first to speak.

"─ ─ Some of you have come from afar.Thank you for today. "

Gilbert's voice resounds clearly in the dining room, even though it's not particularly loud.

An old man smiled at the clinching greeting.Yes, Count Flemie. According to the roster Hans kept, he was the first cousin of the Marquis and still serves in the Royal Palace.

"No, every year."

Seeing everyone nodding, Sofia was small and relieved.I was afraid of silence because nobody spoke a word after I went to the cafeteria.Did you see the air relaxed in the adults? The young children began to shout pathetically.The noise relaxes the air in the cafeteria at once.

"But I was looking forward to greeting your wife this time, too."

Count Flemie turned to Sofia.Sofia opens her mouth without hiding her tension when it's time.

"... thank you."

Elvin, Christina and their generation started introducing their daughters one after the other.

"Would you please get along with my daughter?It will be 16 this year, but I wonder if your wife and I are close. "

"My daughter would love to."

Sofia checked their faces one by one and tied the names of each person to the roster.Then I looked at my daughters in turn.

"Well, thank you very much.Please do me a favor. "

Gilbert glanced at Sofia and smiled thinly enough to realize that it was just Sofia.

"I'm still unfamiliar with my wife, but I'd appreciate it if you could get along."

Sophia was the only one who could tell her expression, but her voice was clearly calm.I can clearly see that Gilbert is thinking about Sofia.The principals who heard it rounded their eyes and compared Sofia to Gilbert.

"What a waste of words!"

Elvin laughed funny at the momentum he just couldn't get up.

"Haha, give my regards to the younger generation."

Most of us were talking at the luncheon, but it was always quiet.Sofia was also nervous, but she could afford to know the taste of the chef's complex and long-named dishes.

At the end of the meal, the children were taken to the garden by servants.
