Chapter 286. From now on, our urban construction does not mean that (4) I do not understand my mother’s thoughts at all.
In fact, I already know that my position is extremely difficult.
can you not know
Even if it is not, the issue of marriage discussion, which has been noisy since before, is now at its peak.
Are you saying that procrastination has reached its limit?
“…But apart from me, I still have Kania noona above me, right? There must be a lot of references to my older sister.”
Yes!
If marriage is simply dangerous, isn’t there my older sister?
He mentioned a sword fool who was the only one besides me who didn’t seem to have any intention of accepting marriage talks alone.
w..?) Regarding the child*****’ I already heard that the Kenzest family and Lady Pinelia are going to launch a large-scale operation.”
….a large-scale operation?
Isn’t it usually called a strategy to send off daughters-in-law?
Judging by the nuances, it seems that they are quite determined.
I want to grab some popcorn and go see it right now, but my nose is three right now.
“Arel A lot of people are interested. It’s not that I don’t know what you think, but shouldn’t I make up my mind now?”
….Well, even if I think about it, if I endured until I was 20, I think I endured a lot.
I have to admit that too.
“I will think of you.”
“It should be.”
Mom obediently believes in my words and is delighted.
I am also stung by my conscience.
You said you were thinking about it, but you didn’t say you were accepting it yet!
Ugh… I can’t bear to say this.
Well, I have to pretend that I can’t win again this time, and just pretend to see the match and get out of the way.
It will be busy again this year, but I have a hunch that it will cause additional difficulties because we met from the beginning.
*
Arel’s mother and late King Theonel’s concubine, Lipana, has been having a lot of trouble with her son’s recent confrontation.
How many years has it been?
Arel’s wedding was rarely good news.
As much as possible, Arel wanted to find a mate as early as possible because she often heard Pinelia’s worries about the second princess.
And I wanted to see my grandson. or granddaughter.
nice to see both
Recently, I started to get greedy.
Anyway, with a mix of selfishness and half-and-half feelings of standing up for my son, Leafa has been working behind the scenes to find Arel’s mate for the past several years.
However, the reality was not easy.
Even when he met at the age of 16, Arel refused for reasons he couldn’t understand.
Well, at that time, I wondered if it was too early for Lipana to think.
So I thought I’d wait a little longer.
And now Lipana would say this if she met her past self.
“Let’s get married early and whatever!”
Who would have known that there would be no progress until the age of twenty?
Just a moment ago, he had personally called Arel and scolded him severely. (The problem is that only the person himself thinks of it as being ‘strict’.)
Lipana was truly pitiful.
What mother in the world would want to criticize her child?
Not to mention, I didn’t want to scold her for a sensitive issue like marriage.
‘…It’s not like there’s no talk of marriage at all.’
It cannot be said that when Arel was just born, there were no such worries.
Because at that time, Lipana was also worried about her future.
Who would really want to marry the powerless prince Arel?
Or even if they get married, they will definitely live a life dragged by the other nobleman.
that’s kind of heartbreaking.
Recalling the memory of that time, Lipana smiled bitterly.
Actually, what she’s worried about now is something completely different.
Maybe I should say it’s a full-fledged worry.
But now it has to be different.
Leafana also knew all too well how much Arel’s influence was.
I didn’t know it at first, but every now and then, when I go out to society, many noble ladies are nervous about making the slightest slip of the tongue in front of her.
Even Leafana, who was dull in that regard, had no choice but to notice.
That’s why, even if Lipana showed even the slightest intention, a mountain of Arel’s marriage rumors would come in.
There were marriage talks from various young ladies, from five-year-olds to those around the same age as Arel.

That’s why, even if Lipana showed even the slightest intention, a mountain of Arel’s marriage rumors would come in.
There were marriage talks from various young ladies, from five-year-olds to those around the same age as Arel.
Yesterday too, a powerful aristocratic family sent a message that they wished to proceed with a marriage discussion with a young lady who excelled in every way, be it culture and looks.
But then what
I’m not really making any progress.
‘…Then why doesn’t the wedding talk go ahead?’
He put his hand on his cheek and fell into contemplation.
‘It’s strange. I’m sure the wedding will be perfect, right?’
That’s really strange.
Why is there still no good news?
Arel is busy. She knows.
But isn’t that and marriage discussion separate?
Even more so, there is no doubt that the opponent he faced is also sending infinite favor to Arel.
“Couldn’t it be… that he’s not interested in women.. or…?”
When Arel himself heard it, he thought of a suspicion that would cause him to pull the blanket over himself and cry because he was sad or embarrassed.
Could it be that it isn’t?
Lipana was seized by an unknown fear.
“no. That would not be it.”
Chena, Arel’s nanny and handmaid, who finally couldn’t see her overflowing with misunderstandings, helped with a word.
At first, I thought I should just leave it alone, but it felt like the owner’s vain thoughts were running rampant, so I wanted to put the brakes on.
“In the first place, the prince’s rumors… You know, too, Lady Lyfana, right?”
“….Oh, I see. It was.”
A baseless rumor about Arel’s pilgrimage to women.
Apparently, all of her aides are women, so among noble ladies who like to gossip, sometimes rumors that are too embarrassing to tell whether they are true or false, and that Arel would run away from under the covers in embarrassment when she hears them, sometimes become a hot topic.
Of course, only Arel and the parties know what the truth is like.
You won’t know.
maybe.
However, if Arel was here, he would think like this.
That it’s not just a complete lie.
In fact, more than half of them are real.
“I see!”
Lyfana, as a mother, also came to her senses after hearing Chena’s point.
Clearly there is such a thing!
“What a relief!”
Originally, as a mother, she would frown at her son’s erratic behavior, but Lyfana’s expression brightened as she was worried.
“That’s a good thing!”
“…is it good… is it?”
Chena refrained from saying the next word.
It’s not polite to hurt her feelings by saying useless things here.
“Yes, I’m glad.”
I readily agreed.
After all, a good lady-in-waiting is said to be both black and white.
It would have been fine if it was reassuring.
And there’s nothing I can’t understand
First of all, she is a nanny.
It wasn’t that she didn’t have the same thoughts.
“Haa… I wish I could hear from anyone.”
“Anyone… is it? Status or something like that…
“Do you really think I’m going to argue about that?”
Lipana smiled bitterly.
Even though now she is in a position that no one can ignore because of her son’s presence, how was she treated when Arel was just born?
“It doesn’t matter who you are.
That’s right, it’s okay if your heart isn’t bad.”
such a humble dream.
Even so, for some reason, there was still no progress in Arel’s wedding talk.
That’s really questionable.
While thinking about it, Lia whimpered in Chena’s arms.
“okay. Lia, come here.”
Lyfana calmed down while accepting the youngest child, who was still in the prime of being cute, from Chena.
“Lia, don’t you want your brother to hurry up and bring your nephew?”
Chena decided to pretend not to hear.
Leah also babbled.
There’s no way I’ll be able to hear it
“Yes, Leah thinks so too.”
Lipana smiled brightly while raising her daughter.
Originally distorting the baby’s will (?) is the prerogative of parents.
Right until the baby starts talking.
Unable to see Lyfana’s escape from reality, Chena helped out with a word.
“Still, the prince must have understood Lyfana-nim’s will this time, so this time I will bring you good news.”
You wouldn’t know that it was Arel in common sense.
You know very well that you are in danger.
Although Chena had expressed her hopeful opinion.
“Che me.”
Lipana sighed quietly.
” yes?”
“Chena doesn’t know Arell yet?”
“yes?”
“As a mother, I can be sure.”
Humans have a sense.
Especially between parents and children, there is a sense of touch that comes even if you don’t know what you’re thinking, even if you don’t say it.
That tip convinced Lipana of one thing.
“I’m sure Arel will be able to get over it this time too.”
that’s her problem
Should I just wait like this?
Or is it much faster to just wait for an accident to happen?
But she knows.
My son… Arel… is more vigilant than she thinks.
There are probably no mistakes.
If I had already made a mistake, I would have made it years ago.
She is confident that she knows her son well.
“I can’t do that, Chena. I don’t think I should watch it this time.”
“…What are you going to do?”
For some reason, Chena felt ominous.
Lipana, who had been silent until now, was finally trying to do something.
However, she is well known as a maid.
Unlike his son, his master is secretly clumsy.
Even if she thinks she’s strict, she’s soft when she sees it.
Even if you think you’re diligent, you’re clumsy.
He is such a person.
Excuse me from time to time…. There are times when I wonder how a person like Arel was born from a person like this.
Anyway, he is such a person.
“I don’t think I can just watch it this time.”
Obviously, it won’t end with the right thing.
No, more than a son, he is a person with outlandish thoughts.
So, while working as a handmaid, she must have fallen in the eyes of the previous king unwillingly and gave birth to Arel.
At least she is taking care of herself after giving birth to Arel, but I wondered if her original personality was coming out out of nervousness.
“Have you any thoughts?”
“You know what? Actually, an interesting letter arrived some time ago.”
“A letter… you mean? Ah…
Chena crossed her hands without making a sound.
Then I saw something like that.
It must have been from her.
It’s something I didn’t understand in the first place.
Why on earth did ‘she’ send a letter to Lipana?
It was a common sense thing that I couldn’t understand, but since she wasn’t in a position to say anything, I just pushed it into a corner of my memory.
But no way…..
I really wanted to.
‘For this?!’ In the midst of the trembling alone, only Leafa spoke with a smile on her face as if she had made up her mind.
“Let’s proceed with Arel’s wedding talk this time.”
A tone full of bottomless confidence that it will work out this time.
Looking at such an owner, Chena prayed in her heart to Arel, who should have returned to the manor by now.
‘I don’t know what the prince is thinking this time, but please don’t get carried away.’
Let’s pray in advance.
I’m sure he’ll be quite embarrassed this time too.
“huh! I’m sure it will work out this time. I’m sure Arel won’t refuse this time either!”
“What is the basis?”
“It’s my senses!”
Come to think of it, when Arel sometimes acts unexpectedly like a habit, they say there is always something to say instead of a basis, right?
‘It’s my feeling!’
….I don’t know why I feel so unsatisfied despite saying the same thing.
In her arms, Lia suddenly fell asleep as if she did not know the world.
While adults are plotting all sorts of thoughts.
He was the only one who was the most comfortable in this place in a pure sense.
In this way, Arel’s progress toward marriage began slowly, out of sight of him.
