Chapter 19

“I think we should also get some formal and party dresses. You will need them at times too…”

Because Anne was so casual, Lisa was rather upset.

“It’s okay. There is no need to make such a fuss over different types of clothes and such. I am comfortable with what I have.”

She grew up as the daughter of a serf, so in the first place, two sets of clothes per season were luxurious enough. Where were her people who had to postpone the laundry because they didn’t have clothes to change to?

(ok So I feel i’m just being stubborn now. Here is what serfs are supposed to look like.)

I could live well with those four dreasses within those few months of my time at the Duke of Aida. I wanted to have a few more underwear, though. The long-awaited new clothes were torn yesterday under the heat of passion.

It was a pity. I felt regret over that dress being ruined.

But Anne still calmly responded back.

“If you don’t properly consider what you need, Count Arnulf’s reputation might get damaged, Countess.”

“I see…”

It might be better to accept it, when given. Maybe in the future, there will be no chance. It would be better, if I could collect sturdy clothes that can last long for several years.

Lisa nodded hard.

( ok now i officially love her frugal pettiness lol wth!)

It was already ten days after Eckart Arnulf came home. There was neither a flag nor a trumpet to throw a parade for his return.

He also hastily came back before everyone else, as it was still time to be on the hunting ground.

The purpose was to hunt wolves, but beyond that, the objective was extensive military training, and there was also an intention of showing their united strong force towards the neighboring countries. That is why, the Royal family will also send knights to support wolf hunting every year at this time.

If it were the same as usual, he would have disbanded the army and continued to hunt for wolves while patrolling for about a week more with the Knights Templar. But this year, because of the wedding, he already missed the mid part of the event. He had wasted two weeks for the wedding preparations.

In the first place, Eckart was dissatisfied with the marriage alliance with the Duke of Aida.

“Princess Eleanorra is a beauty that can’t be found anywhere. Why do you hate it so much?”

“Is a woman’s appearance that important? Duke Aida is a twittering mouse born of a lion’s lineage. Marrying the daughter of such a person…ugh…”

Eckart said so in an unpleasant manner.

The King refused to change the bride because he said he wanted to deepen the relationship between the Royal family and the Arnulf castle through a Princess, and there was no other Princess left except for Aida’s.
