The Earl’s Bad Wife

Episode XVII Calling the Storm, Unexpected Visitors

A month after the masquerade. I was busy getting ready to welcome my children.

There is no reason to mention it in childbirth and skin clothing, cradles, massive gauze and cotton cloths, bathtubs for babies, bathing agents, etc.

I made towels, sauces, etc. to wipe my body with my mother.

Although it was quite difficult, there is no compromise here, so I will quietly stab the needle in the cloth. There won't be a day like this when I was glad I was learning to sew from your Elke sister.

Along the way, my newly hired nanny also helped me.

Behind the Baron's house, his name is Ilia von Ruelink.

I could also hear valuable stories about parenting as I sewed my amulet. Her children have been weaned and now they are eating breastfeeding, apparently. But you think I have trouble because I get lots of milk every day?

"That's what happened the first and second time. I'm gonna stop in a year or so, but, hey, it's gonna be tough getting there."

"Is that so? Your mother's in trouble too."

"Yes, it is."

She thought it was okay to be a nanny because her milk came out so good.

She knew her mother, told the story at the tea party, and decided to hire her immediately.

"Well, to the Grand Mistress, ma'am, you won't have to worry about that with all this."

Thirty diapers, twenty sunflowers, and ten towels of cotton to wipe your body.

Then I also knitted socks and hats.

The child is still spending time with Keira von Poloberk.

Although the mother said it was better to take it away quickly because her emotions shifted, the book said that the early milk coming out of the mother who gave birth contained a lot of ingredients to boost the baby's immune system. So it's also for the child, and I'm still keeping it with her.

The evening is a study group for parenting. My husband is with me because I have a meeting. She said she would study parenting with me.

I seem to have left most of the work to my successor these days, I will be home early and I have stopped following diplomacy.

Before marriage, I was relieved to hear that my husband was away a lot, but lately it's calmer to have a husband.

Because I have a lot of earl family company and occasional rough visitors come to visit me, so I'm more comfortable having a husband when that happens.

I was still studying hospitality for my guests.

I hear my husband came to see Keira von Polobark and her children today.

"If you'd told me, I would have gone with you."

"Because I didn't intend to stay long"

"Yes."

"I'll come with you next time."

"……… Yep."

Even though the two are not mistresses separately, it bothers me to hear that they went to see each other.

While I was wondering why, I moved on to the next topic.

"No, I'm surprised. The child's eyes look just like his mother's, his nostrils and mouth to His Highness."

"Not if you look alike."

"That's right."

Well, if the characteristics of both father and mother combine, it seems fine. I thought from the bottom of my heart that I was glad I didn't look like one of them.

"Speaking of which, what are you saying to Your Highness about the children of Keira von Polobark?

"Of course, he says it's a child with the Viscount. I don't know you've been separated."

Naturally, because he had sexual intercourse, His Highness Augusto apparently suspected that the child in Keira von Polobark's stomach was not his own.

So you told him that her husband took a fake child and showed her that this was the child she gave birth to?

The baby firmly inherited the characteristics of Viscount Vigant. They came all the way here to bring the Vigant children born at a similar time.

Because of the work, His Highness says he was convinced that he was not his own child.

"Good for you, honestly deceived me"

"I am terrified of you."

husband tilting his neck with a smile on his face. He doesn't realize how horrible he is.

"I'm sure I won't notice if you lie."

"I will not lie to Master Helmina."

"Really? I think you're a kind liar."

With that said, my husband looks somewhat surprised.

"Does that look like it?

"Yeah."

Nothing, I believe that gentle lies are not evil.

Not everyone has a vessel that accepts the truth.

With that in mind, I believe that sometimes there are necessary lies.

My husband described me as a "stranger".

I, too, was to return the same words to my husband as they were.

The case comes up when I was counting the fingerfolds for a few days until I took the child away.

Suddenly, His Highness Augusto asked.

My husband is absent at work. My mother is also out.

It was a situation where I had to deal with them alone.

What the hell is it for?

When I heard the butler's story, His Highness came to visit me.

We headed toward the guest room in awe.

I broke my knee to His Highness, sitting slowly on my bench.

On the way to a long welcome, I was ordered to sit down.

I smile and reply and obey honestly as I was told, because I am somewhat cocky but not the kind of person I can complain about.

Leaving this story out of the way, Your Highness was gracefully drinking tea.

Basically, you shouldn't talk to the royalty from this side, so you just have to wait and wait.

His Highness, whom I saw a long time ago, looked nervous after all and seemed to be a difficult person to get close to.

I've only exchanged words to the extent of greeting before and wonder what the hell I've been talking about.

His Highness lay the cup on the saucer without sound and placed it on the desk.

And look at my face still.

"Let's be frank. All of a sudden, I'm sorry, but I need you to break up with Erich."

"- What?"

I replied with a thorny voice.

I look at this one to stare at it in silence, so I say, "Could you say that again?" Do me a favor clearly.

"That's why I'm telling you to break up with Erich."

"Huh!?

The second time, I raised my voice even more thorny.

His Highness Augusto told me to stay away from my husband.

Impossible, such as immediately rebelling what you swore in front of God.

Why the hell did you ask me? You said something terrible.

"Erich has changed because of you. I got married and I lost my heart."

"What kind of husbands are you?

"That's right. I stopped having opinions about my job, and when it's time, I'll just go home. I also started to do things like love stories, and I wouldn't say depressing. I find it hard to see Erich corrupt."

"No, my husband..."

To His Highness's lesser words, I shudder when I blurt.

I've been doing so much for so many years, there's no way to put it.

My husband didn't become heartless, he was just watching His Highness grow up in public.

Well, I can't follow up on the love story. What were you saying in front of the royal family?

Return to the story.

"Your Highness, if I may say so, that recognition is incorrect."

"You're a really bad woman. That's how you let Ehrlich obey the behavior you don't care about, right?

"What did you just say!?

"I've heard for a long time that my uncle's youngest daughter feels uncomfortable getting a wife."

In his words, I will lose my word. I didn't know you said that. Because I'm not the one who's depressed.

"Who said that?

"I don't know. I just overheard someone talking."

"Is that so?"

Unfortunately, I couldn't grasp the footsteps of the murderer who was speaking ill.

But the rumor is also true.

A normal aristocratic woman should be able to get married between sixteen and eighteen.

I am almost twenty years old. The right age for marriage passed a long time ago.

Your father said, "I don't want to let go of Helmina because she's cute," but I could easily imagine that she was just being turned down by the person who applied for the marriage.

Though I honestly believed in your father's words back then.

I got married and realized a slight change, that you could see yourself objectively.

"- Hey, are you listening to me?

"Yes, of course."

In front of His Royal Highness, I was delayed in my thoughts.

But you wouldn't have to either. There's so much rudeness about suddenly pressing for isolation.

"If I had a child, I wouldn't have a problem."

"Don't worry."

"What is it?

Look straight at His Highness and state clearly.

"I have no intention of breaking up with my husband."
