Chapter 57
After a while, my husband and father in law came to the main hall . Apparently, the conversation has ended .
“Vee? What happened?”
My husband seems to notice that something is wrong with me and looked into my face .
I can’t say I got a jewel and that made like this,
“I was so surprised because I received a very nice present . ”
When I say that and hold the box up, my husband picks it from my hands and looks at the jewelry from every angle,
“Oh, this is a stunning Pigeon Blood! Wasn’t this discovered in our lands a long time ago?”
He sounds so happy… is it so valuable?
“Yes, it’s precious if sold to the royal palace or merchants, but this is what I want for my cute daughter in law to wear, so we brought it today as souvenir . ”
Father in law has a soft smile on his face, but I’m more and more pale after this declaration . Is it so precious that can be used by the Royalty?! Just listening to it makes me dizzy . Don’t you think that this goes slightly beyond the category of souvenir?!
“With this size, you can make earrings as well as necklaces . — Please call a jeweler . Let’s adjust it . ”
“How nice! She will look very pretty with it . ”
Mimosa left happily to call a jeweler . Very quick to action as always .
“Let’s go!”
“Okay . ”
Neither father-in-law nor my husband have been in the hall much time but it’s time to go to the royal palace, so they’re ready to go out without sitting down to have breakfast nor a cup of tea .
“Come on”
We’re going to send them off at the entrance . Me alongside mother-in-law .
Today, my husband and father-in-law went out to the castle .
Me and my mother-in-law returned inside the mansion and spent the day chattering along .
In the morning, “I heard that the annex was renovated! I wanted to see it ~ “
“I’ll guide you to the annex . ” She don’t know when or how it changed, so she’s curious .
“It feels more natural and calm than before . Very nice! I like it!”
“You can stay here if you like it more than the main mansion . Oh, yes, if you want to be alone, you can just spend your day here!” Hmm, there is such a usage! I am going to use it from now on, as mother-in-law said .
In the afternoon, a jeweler came . We contacted him this morning and he came in the afternoon . How quick!
Even the owner of a famous jewelry shop seems so surprised at the quality of the gem that his hands are trembling . Well, if you’re a famous jeweler, unlike me, and saw an incredibly gem, you’d be impressed and tremble .
From here on, mother-in-law and Mimosa took control of the situation!
From the design to the combination with other stones, they have amazing skills . It seems to be too much fun, they are watching like “It’s nice . . woow so good! I like it already!” … maybe it’s my imagination but it appears to be the same case as when dressing a doll… “Let’s make a dress that suits this” ☆
I lost . Better leave them alone!
In the evening, my husband and my father-in-law came back from the castle .
“What did you do today?”
Father-in-law asked us at the dinner table .
“I’ve seen the annex that has been renovated! It’s really nice! If we’re staying for a long time, it would be good to stay there . ”
Mother-in-law said happily .
“It seems to have lost its old facade because I’ve made some drastic changes . I’m sure you, father, will like it too . Please use that for your stay . ”
“Well, yes . Please show me the way . ”
The story is exciting for both the ducal couple and my husband . I just silently concentrate on eating and leave them enjoy the talk .
Grilled white fish . If you’re a warm meal with warm vegetables
“Now Vee, please take my father to the annex . ”
And here I was enjoying my meal… My husband suddenly sends me out, interrupting the delicious meal .
I was about to suffocate with the warm vegetables .
After that, it’s the story about the jeweler . My mother-in-law was eagerly speaking about the design and the like while praising her eyes and good fashion sense .
The banquet was over, and after dinner, we decided to go sleep . My father-in-law has just arrived this morning and is tired .
Father-in-law and my husband left the hall first .
“Madam, come here… please”
But I was kept by Dahlia, who called me without alerting the others .
“What, what?”
I answer while peeking around to see what happened .
“Actually, Lotus and all of us have been busy all day today and we didn’t have time to bring an extra bed to your room madam . ”
Dahlia seems to be sorry .
“Huh? No extra bed?”
“I’m sorry but that’s right . There’s only one bed for both of you . ”
Lotus had to attend my husband and father-in-law since the morning, and after that she was busy with food and drinks . The servants seemed to be busy getting ready for today’s banquets, cleaning up the rooms the knights used, as well as preparing for today .
First of all, it is also difficult to carry such huge items as a bed, secretly from the warehouse to the bedroom, and mother and father in law came very early in the morning .
It’s understandable .
“Mu …… . I’ll rest on the couch, don’t worry . ”
I told without much issue .
“Please stop it madam! Care for your health!”
It was Dahlia who cried out .
“… Oh wel… what do you want me to do then Dahlia?”
My husband sent my father-in-law to the room and return to my (now ours) room . My husband said, “What about an extra bed? “
I repeated the explanation Dahlia gave .
“There is no need for you to apologize . ”
“I couldn’t confirm the existence of a bed for you before making you come here, so I’ll take responsibility and sleep on the couch!”
I told before my husband finished . This sofa is soft and comfortable . Very good for a nap . Hmm? Why are you dropping your shoulders?
However, my husband entered a depressed state,
“You won’t be able to sleep on the sofa! I will sleep on the sofa!”
What do you mean, you larger than me and never ever slept of a sofa before? I had a hard rock bed in my original house, so I’m used to this . His feet will be left hanging on the floor if he uses the sofa .
“No way! Husband, please use the bed! I’m small enough for the couch”
“If you sleep on the couch, I’ll sleep on the floor!”
Oh! Don’t start again . Then the bed is empty? What a waste!
“I can’t let you, husband, sleep out of the bed …”
I’m amazed and sigh,
“No! it isn’t okay if I sleep in the bed!”
Please don’t say it with such a righteous face .
Let me break it here .
Yeah, I know you’re proud of this bed that is uselessly large . I can sleep with about five people on this bed . That’s why there’s plenty of room and margin for just two people . It’s just that I don’t want to use it like that! I’d like to sleep alone!
“Oh my… sigh… I’m tired… Then, from this middle line, you, husband, over there . Don’t trespass the line!”
I made a line with pillows in the center of the bed . Exactly in the middle!
“Even if you don’t draw such a line …”
Do not pout cutely when you’re an old man .
“Well, to sleep! See you tomorrow . ”
“Such coldness…”
“Umm, this isn’t enough … Oh! Yeah! Mimosa!”
I called Mimosa to bring something I remembered,
「………… Nee! Please」
I said in a small voice at her ear,
“I’m smart . I’ll have it now!”
After saying so and making a big affirmation, she left the room .
In the meantime, I went to have a hot water bath . Of course, my husband is also in the room this time .
Mimosa brought me a very big teddy bear after I left the bath . I place it next to me, before the line drawn with pillows .
“Is this a physical obstacle?”
Mimosa shows a satisfactory look,
“Yes! This is an obstacle!”
When I and Mimosa were talking secretly while watching it, my husband came back from wearing his pajamas .
And he noticed my teddy bear on the bed .
“… pink teddy bear …”
“Yes! I thought I wouldn’t have to trouble you if I roll over with this!”
The teddy bear is holding a salmon, that’s dressed as the bride, for a wedding celebration (the bear is the groom) . I suddenly remembered that It was sleeping in the warehouse for a while and I can see it today! It was helpful!
“Thank you for the help today husband!”
“……Yes”
“Now, good night!”
“good night……”
After greeting my husband, I sneaked into my side of the bed .
My husband seems tired too, and silently lay down on his position .
Next morning .
My husband was sleeping holding the teddy bear at the borderline . isn’t it uncomfortable to hold?
What happened? (Is my sleeping position so bad? Such a mystery…)
