Haunted Duke’s Daughter

Three.

Even Sakura is surprised by this series of actions by Lilia. I had no idea Sakura was going to say she was going to make Alisa an exclusive maid even though she didn’t say anything. Was there anything I wondered about? At the same time I was wondering, it was strange.

The look on Alisa’s face when she told me to make it an exclusive maid. It was something like, I don’t know if I could be happy or sad. That should be it too, Alisa is originally hired as Lilia’s exclusive maid. It is also introduced to Lilia as such. I’m saddened that you didn’t remember that, and at the same time, I guess I’m glad that he told me that he would make it an exclusive maid of honor again.

Remembering the reaction then, and enduring to laugh again, Sakura gave thought to what was to come.

After a brief but hot bath, Lilia walked out of the mansion with her in the dress Alisa had prepared for her. I told her to go back to work because she’s fine by herself, but Alisa never gave in when she followed me. Apparently, I don’t have any credibility.

Flower beds line the perimeter of the mansion. This is what the maids grow, and they have their own reception, with different flowers blooming depending on the flower beds. The arrangement of the flower beds themselves is neat but there is no unity in the flowers that are blooming. Do some of them have different seasons or only buds grow?

“I saw it again…… Can’t you do something about this? It’s the first thing a customer sees, so I think we should be more concerned with looking good.”

When Lilia said so, Alisa smiled like she was in trouble.

“It’s what my husband gave us… My husband said, you don’t have to worry about it, so use it as you please. You don’t have to worry about looking good or anything trivial like that.”

“Yeah…… I mean, are you trying to tell me that I’m a narrow-minded woman who cares about such trivial things?

“Huh? Well, I don’t think so! True!”

What do you say, Lilia slips away and walks to the back of the garden. Behind it follows Alisa, who dropped her shoulder.

– Lilia. Gently. You’re sweet, aren’t you?

– I know. I was just teasing you.

I hadn’t even cared before, but this girl named Alisa seems to have a clear sense of joy and sorrow. It’s quite interesting to talk about.

“Alisa. Which of your flower beds?

“Mine, is it? It’s boring to see. Better not look…”

“Just show me.”

“Ugh…… Ok……”

For some reason, Alisa doesn’t want Lilia to see her flowerbed. It makes me wonder, but if I don’t want to be seen, when shown with attitude, I really want to see it the other way around. I can see the sakura is frightened, but I ignore that stuff.

Alisa leads Lilia on foot. Along the way, I slipped away from some other servants, but everyone peeled a little and looked at Lilia and Alisa. Some of them even stole this one after worrying about Alisa or making mistakes.

Even though I don’t take it and eat it, I don’t think so, but that doesn’t tell.

And the place Alisa showed me was on the back door of the mansion. It is primarily an entrance and exit used by servants and merchants. There was a small flower bed on that side.

“What is this? Nothing.”

Only the soil is in the flower bed that Alisa indicated was this. I haven’t even grown weeds. When she glances at Alisa for an explanation, Alisa answers with her cheeks pulled together.

“No, the… We don’t have time, do we…? I didn’t plant anything. I used to try my best, but it just dried up…”

“How come you don’t have time? Are you gonna tell me you’re the only one with a lot of work?

I’m not trying to help Alisa, but if she does, you can give her boss an opinion. Anyway, it’s my exclusive maid of honor. I think you can do that.

But when Alisa shook her head, she told her in a small voice.

“Because I’m late, is. I wish I could move more like the seniors…”

Apparently, it’s Alisa’s own problem. Lilia sighed unexpectedly. Plus Alisa says the seniors are even taking care of Alisa’s flower bed so it won’t be full of weed. Apparently, so that you can plant something at any time.

“So? Do you plan to plant something?

“No…… You haven’t…”

“Yes.”

That’s where the conversation breaks off. I guess you’re anxious about what Lilia thinks staring at the flowerbed with nothing, Alisa is softly suspicious of behavior. Most importantly, Lilia herself really thinks nothing and only thinks about the extent to which she grows flowers here.

– Lilia.

Sakura voice. Lilia silently urges ahead.

– Let’s try growing flowers with Alisa. I’m sure Alisa will be delighted.

Lilia listening to it becomes tannic, and the look on Alisa’s face as she watches it goes blue while she sees it.

– I don’t want to. It’s annoying.

Sure, Lilia put Alisa in her exclusive maid, but she doesn’t want to exhaust herself or anything. To be clear, because it seems more convenient to keep those who are close in age, given what lies ahead. Nothing more or less.

When I told him about it, he sighed somewhere discouraged.

– Whatever triggered it. Lilia. Hence.

Now Lilia sighed. I don’t know what that means, but I don’t want to bend my own words that I said I would follow Sakura’s instructions. Lilia had no choice but to look back at Alisa. Tell Alisa she’s completely atrophied.

“You’re not planning on using this flowerbed for a while, are you?

“Ah…… Yes.”

“Then I’ll take it”

Why did Sakura breathe in the words that were released suddenly, and Alisa pounded away. You’ve gradually come to understand what it means, and the more interesting it is to watch it, the more it starts to wolf. Staring at the condition for a while, Alisa eventually sighed briefly and nodded that she understood.

“I have no plans to use it, and I will give this flowerbed to the lady. I’ll tell your husband from me…”

“No. I’ll tell your father because he has a favor to ask. I’ll see your father, so just wait here.”

Leaving Alisa with a suspicious frown, Lilia returned from the back entrance to the mansion.

– Lilia. What do you mean?

– What? I’m following your instructions.

– Mmm… Well, no matter how you obey or disobey, you’re free…

Walk down the hallway to my father. At this hour, my father would be looking through the paperwork in the office. It is my father’s routine to confirm today’s work before breakfast. When I knocked on the office door upstairs, I could hear my father fulfilling it.

“Who?

It’s me, Father.

“Lilia……? Did you come out of the room? Get in.”

It’s an unfathomable way of putting it, but it has a very happy atmosphere. Lilia was surprised not least by how her father was doing, just by the father who didn’t really make people understand his emotions. And reflect a little bit. I was wondering if you were so worried by now.

When Lilia entered the office, her father sat at the desk in the deepest part of the room. My eyes staring straight at Lilia look like something cold, but my cheeks are moving slightly. As if I could smile.

“Good morning, Father”

“Oh, good morning. So, what can I do for you?

Back to back with the pleasant atmosphere, we are in a hurry for conversation. Lilia, who knows her father is quite busy among the nobles, soon cut out an errand.

“I hear your father is giving the maid a flower bed.”

“Oh. I thought it would be a distraction. What’s wrong with that?

“I have one favor to ask you. I’d like to have Alisa’s flowerbed.”

My father’s expression turned to that of disappointment. My father shook his head and narrowed his eyes staring at Lilia. That just makes me feel like my room temperature has dropped all at once.

“Lilia. Are you still saying that…”

Does my father know what he is trying to do? That’s impressed with your father, Lilia tells him.

“Do you have any recommended seeds? I’d like you to give it to me if you have one.”

My father didn’t say anything, and when he stood up quietly, he headed to the shelf on the wall. When I opened the shelf, I removed a small paper bag from it. I wonder why he seeds flowers in such a place, but my father walked over here with it, so I gave up that thought.

My father will give me the paper bag. Lilia took it, respectfully.

“Lilia, after too much time, I won’t be able to shelter myself.”

“Well, you say strange things. I didn’t do anything nasty, did I?

My father sighs loudly, backing off, briefly telling him to go back to the back of the room. Lilia left the room after giving a deep thank you on the spot.
