The Story of a Gold Spoon in Another World 219

Chapter 219 – Gathering

“Forearms… No, anyway… Isn’t it a bunch… ?”

What?
Alina was muttering something while looking this way.
I don’t think it’s a partner issue. It’s suspicious that the gaze is slightly downward.

“Did something happen?”
“No? I don’t know either?”

Irina, who was with her, also tilted her head.
She was told she had a private conversation, but I don’t think the problem stemmed from that. I heard she worked it out with conversation.

“Also… A lot of it!”

I don’t know, but time will tell.
As we chatted with each other, the rest of the personnel continued to prepare.

This time there were not only Alina and Irina, but also many others.

Sasha and Nanya are also my people, but strictly speaking they are not people of the castle, except for those two. All the people in the castle, including Chloe, Triana, Zeke, and Isabelle, have gathered.

The reason was simple.

“I just got a call from the city gate. Everyone.”

The door opened and Irene came in. She said that after her first experience the other day, she gradually gained the dignity appropriate to her position as chief maid. Is it because she has grown a layer by taking off her scabs?
What kind of scab is that scab?

“You seem to be thinking of something sinister?”
“It must be an illusion.”

Seeing my face in her, the perceptive Irina glanced at her and stood up.

“You are more nervous than I thought. Although we met once…”
“You don’t have to be so nervous.”

Irina and I. And Alina.
Escorting the two of us, the retainers followed us and walked to the gate.

“Your Excellency Count Franz, Your Excellency Count Bohrin has arrived!”

Welcome to the alliance

* * *

“It’s a nice place. The Müller estate.”
“Count Harry.”

Alighting from the gorgeous blue-decorated carriage at the front was Harry Boring, a young man in his late twenties with beautifully waving blue hair like a scion.

“Thank you for the compliment. Still, it’s still in the middle of development, so the balance isn’t good.”
“I like that. You mean you have a future? Starting with jobs, the people of this city are looking forward to the future and dreaming of hope even in this unstable situation.”

I have a job.
Full.
Even in the rumors of war heard around by merchants, safety here is also guaranteed.
For the common people of this era, living is the best condition.

Like me, Count Harry has a pretty free-spirited mindset.

“Especially the opera house and various cultural developments are interesting! If you have time, I’d like to take a look there, is that okay?”
“Of course. If you tell us anytime, we will show you the best performance.”
“I have often seen plays, but I am very interested in musicals and operas. If there is an opportunity, I would like to direct it myself.”
“Hoo. I didn’t know you were that interested. If you like it after seeing it once, it wouldn’t hurt to direct it yourself. Still, if you want to use the Taeyang troupe, which is directly sponsored by Yeongji, it would have to be a good work.”
Haha! It’s good! Cancer. Good scenario, good idea. I can’t wait for that time!”

As I was talking with Count Harry, Irina jumped out from behind.

“Can’t you see her little sister’s face that you haven’t seen in a long time?”
Haha! I’ve seen it my whole life, can’t I just stop watching it now?”
“You speak well!”

Count Harry looked at her Irina, responding nicely to her words.

“But I can tell from your face that you’re doing well.”
“Hehe… Come now?”
Haha.”

When Count Harry and Irina were welcoming the reunion of brother and sister after a long absence, the carriage following them also stopped.

A carriage decorated with gold and the pattern of a lion. The Franz family’s carriage stops and the door opens.

The Franz family knew Aidan was coming alone.
As I stepped forward to greet my older brother, the carriage door opened and a man came down.

“Second son.”
“Mother?”

The carriage opened and the first to appear was the mother.
She still has a gorgeous appearance that doesn’t match the word mother, but more than that, why is her mother…

“Haha. It’s okay if you don’t come, but you insisted on coming.”
“Brother Aidan.”

It was Aidan-hyung who got off the carriage afterwards.
My brother let out a bitter smile and sighed.

“I said you didn’t have to come.”
“Now that I have come out of the capital and become free, I can go wherever I want. Do you hate it?”
“No, it is not.”

He immediately shook his head at the face that was glaring at him with an indifferent expression.
My mother nodded her head in satisfaction and glanced behind me.
What’s behind me…

“Oh. Miss Irina and Miss Alina.”

Irina, who was talking about her with Count Harry, as well as Alina, who was laughing while watching her, approached in surprise at the sudden appearance of her mother.

“Oh, Mother!”
“Long time no see! Mother!”

Both at breakneck speed. However, while maintaining her dignity, she cautiously appeared before her mother.
Seeing the two of them like that, her mother was smiling as if she was satisfied.

“Is it so. Miss Irina. It’s been a while. Did Miss Alina meet her in the capital a few months ago?”
“Yes, Mother!”
“At the time, I never imagined that we would be in a relationship like this, but I really don’t know that it is a human relationship. Right?”
“Yes… !”
“I saw the garden of Franz Castle. Did you receive the gift well?”
“Sure. It is now stored in a warehouse at Müller Castle.”
“Whoops. I don’t think Miss Alina will need it.”
“No. Top-notch magic stones are hard to find even if you have money. I will write it in a good place.”

Her mother responds with her expressionless expression, and Alina, who breaks into a cold sweat at her appearance, then wonders if she has ever made a mistake. Is a very pleasing look.
Her own daughter-in-law is quite pleased with her, looking up and down to see if she likes her, but she honestly doesn’t know what condition she’s in unless she’s friendly.
She is a person who does not change her expression very much.
This. Irina is also frozen.

“It’s surprising that your mother is here, but she’s welcome nonetheless.”
“Whoops. Thank you.”
“Then I’ll take you inside.”

She moved into her inner castle, taking her mother with Count Harry and Aidan.
When all the other ladies-in-waiting and even the knights were bowing, her mother stopped walking just before going inside.

“Mother?”
“Hmm…”

Her mother’s gaze turned to Chloe.
When everyone’s eyes shifted between mother and Chloe, she watched Chloe cautiously, trying to hide her embarrassment.

“No.”
“Yes.”

The mother moves inside her, taking her steps again.
As I followed her mother into her, her eyes met Chloe’s.

They can read each other’s thoughts with their eyes. Chloe doesn’t know why either.
When a mother acts, she does not move in vain. She must have a reason.

* * *

“Mother.”
“Huh?”

When I was unpacking after assigning the guests who came to Müller to their respective rooms, I looked for my mother first.

“Ugh. It’s a nice car Did you learn from Lena?”
“Yes, madam.”

She let out a sigh when she saw her mother relaxing in the waiting room while receiving Neria’s tea.
Seeing her as if she knew of course that she would come, it seems that she did it on purpose as well.

“Whoops. Not on purpose. I’m just embarrassed.”
“Is that true?”
“Of course. Chloe, that child is the first child I have ever seen. Did she say she was a Tristan family child? He never heard of it.”
“It’s not that big of a family.”
“It did. He is also an aide you personally chose.”

I sighed and sat down in my chair.

“Don’t turn around, why are you doing that?”

It can’t be helped if it’s true that she was embarrassed, but whatever the reason, Chloe got the attention of others.
Of course, since he’s my closest friend, it’s only natural that he’s getting attention from the beginning.

“She seems to sleep with him quite often?”
“Sleeping…”

She was momentarily taken aback by her mother’s words.
No, even so, talking about the night in front of my mother is a bit…
My mother smiled at my expression and said.

“That child.”
“Yes?”

Chloe?

“That child. You’re pregnant. Maybe?”
“… Yes?”

Pregnancy?
Is it Chloe?
I blankly looked at her mother.

“Looking at it, no one seemed to know. Well, it seems that he doesn’t even know.”
“No… Really?”

At my words, my mother looked at me and shook her head.

“Are you kidding me about having grandchildren? Well, there’s a possibility that it’s just a simple physical condition, but why don’t you take a look at it? Didn’t you touch it anyway?”
“… Neria!”
“Yes! I will move right now!”

Neria moved immediately.

“This.”

Mother shook the empty teacup she was holding.

“These days, children say that they are pregnant too much. When I…”

Rattle!

Ariena Franz smiled.
Her son, who was already sitting in front of her bed, was gone.
