It’s still an unfamiliar new house for her, so she’s hiding under the blanket, but will she come out if I give her a toy?
“Good morning, Larissa. Did you sleep well?”
I held back my laughter and said good morning.
Larissa soon stuck her head out of the blanket.
My morning greeting is like a toy for catching a cat.
Is it because she suddenly jumped in surprise a while ago?
Her face was a ripe pink like a peach in early summer.
Oh, I’m sure I’ll see that cute face smiling at me someday.
‘Come on, Larissa, smile like this. Look, like this.’
I smiled very sweetly.
Of course, that didn’t make Larissa smile right away, but seeing something cute in the morning made me feel really good.
I had my breakfast brought to my room this morning.
Larissa will also need a period of adaptation, so there’s no need to go down to the dining room to eat every time.
Besides, I love having breakfast in my room.
There was no need to get up early and no need to get dressed.
While the maids brought the perfect breakfast, all I had to do was relax and enjoy the food.
We ate a warm, soft omelet with cheese and spinach with crispy bacon, and spread butter and apricot jam on the toast.
While Larissa drank a glass of fresh milk with both hands, I poured the brewed black tea into the cup.
The morning sun was streaming in through the window.
The sky outside the window was clear without a single cloud.
I don’t know what bird it is, but I can hear the birds chirping, the weather is also perfect, just like a fairy tale.
‘Today is going to be a good day.’
As I savored the scent of tea, I started thinking about what to do with Larissa today.
“It’s a good day. Should we go to the garden? Yesterday we went to the garden, how about today we go to the large garden in front of the house?”
At my suggestion, Larissa blinked her eyes a few times and then nodded her head slightly.
The milk she had just drunk left a white mustache mark around her lips.
I laughed and wiped the milk mustache with a napkin.
When the breakfast was over, the maid who was waiting cleared up the tableware. It was time to get ready.
Until now, the maids took turns serving.
But that one maid bowed her head in a respectful manner and introduced herself a little differently from the previous maids.
“Nice to meet you, Madam. My name is Sophia. The Master has sent me.”
“His Highness?”
“Yes, Madam. I am in charge of serving you and Young Lady Larissa from now on.”
Standing with her hands together, Sophia seemed to be a mature and quiet woman.
The neat brown hair tied around the back of her head seemed to show her personality.
“I look forward to your kind cooperation[1], Sophia.”
[1] Korean phrase. A kind of positive greeting when you first meet someone you will see often in the future.
“If you need anything, please do not hesitate to tell me.”
Sophia smiled softly.
“By the way, the room used by the Grand Duchess for generations has been completely renovated. So you can move in today. Would you like to go and see yourself?”
“Renovated?”
“Yes. The room has been empty for a long time, so it took a little while to prepare. It has been renovated and can be used immediately now, but I think it would be good for you to see it once, if nothing is to your taste, we will replace it.”
After all, I couldn’t stay in the guest room forever.
Because of the sudden appearance of the hostess, the maids must have suffered quite a bit taking care of this and that all of a sudden in such a short period of time.
“Good. Then I’ll stop by before going to the garden. Can you help me change?”
“Of course, ma’am,” she replied politely.
“What kind of clothes would you like?”
I remembered the clothes in my closet.
I haven’t had time to tidy up my clothes, so all I have in my closet are the clothes Fabian gave me a while ago.
Luxurious but not flashy clothes that would suit common people.
‘Oh, there’s one more.’
Nora’s old dress is still hanging in the closet.
I chuckled.
Now that I’m not going to meet anyone or attend any party, the clothes I have are enough.
‘I have to get some new clothes soon. How much is the budget for the Grand Duchess?’
It’s someone else’s money, so I’ll spend it as much as I can.
I said to Sophia with a sly smile inside, “I don’t have many clothes in the first place…… First of all, I want to go for a walk in the garden, so can you choose for me the most comfortable one?”
When Sophia heard it, she looked surprised.
Is it because I, the Grand Duchess, said that I had no clothes?
No, it’s not like that. It’s not because I’m frugal, it’s just that I didn’t have time to buy them.
After a moment’s hesitation, she said, “Master has instructed us to fill the wardrobes of Madam and Miss Larissa. You have a new room ready to move in. What do you want to do?”
– I thought you knew. Was it a secret? Can I say this? Master probably kept it a secret on purpose.
Oh, of course, you can!
“Is that so? Then should I go and see what His Highness has prepared?”
I smiled while changing into an indoor dress.
After Larissa put on the dress and slippers, we followed Sophia out of the room.
“Here it is.”
Sophia opened the door for us. I opened my mouth wide.
‘……can I call this a room?’
The Grand Duchess’ room occupied half of one floor of this huge mansion.
Of course, the other half is the Grand Duke’s room.
It was a room the size of a small mansion.
Bedroom, bathroom, parlor, living room, several dressing rooms, tea room, music room, personal study, baby room for future babies, even a small arcade and greenhouse.
In addition, there are several more rooms that have not been decided what they will be used for.
Also, each room is spacious enough to fit five of my old bedrooms.
All of this is for the Grand Duchess only.
‘She said it was prepared in a hurry, but it’s perfect.’
The luxurious yet antique furniture is placed in each room.
Even the corridor connecting the rooms was like a small gallery, with artworks collected from generation to generation.
“If there is something you do not like, please let me know. We will replace it with the one you like right away.”
“There’s nothing to replace.”
I don’t know who decorated it, but he has good eyes.
I have no confidence that I can decorate it more beautifully than this.
It was a perfect room, but there was only one most important thing missing: Larissa’s room.
“Oh, I’m going to share a bedroom with Larissa for a while. I want you to put two beds in my bedroom.”
“All right, Miss Larissa’s room is downstairs. What should I do?”
I looked at Larissa standing next to me. She was holding my hand tightly.
“Just give her a room in this room, too.”
I don’t know later, but now I can’t leave Larissa alone.
It seems Larissa is afraid to sleep alone in the dark, so I’ll sleep with her. What’s more, it’ll be easier for me to take care of her when she’s near me.
Plus, sharing a bedroom doesn’t mean you have to stay together all the time.
There are so many rooms, Larissa can use any room she wants.
And when the day comes when Larissa wants to protect her privacy, she can move downstairs.
“Leave the downstairs room as is, so that when Larissa wants to move in, she can move right away.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
I looked at Larissa.
“Larissa, what do you think? Do you like this room?”
At the time, we were in the next room in the bedroom.
There were several large windows at the front, so it was a very bright room.
Each room has a different carpet, but the carpet in this room feels unusually cozy.
Larissa also seemed to like the carpet.
It was warm and cozy, so I took off my slippers and started walking barefoot.
The sunlight coming through the window warmed my pale bare feet.
The moment I saw Larissa’s blushing cheeks through her gleaming silver hair, I made a decision right away.
“I’m going to make this a playroom for Larissa.”
Good, good. And let’s use the next room as Larissa’s study.
The next room will be the living room for Larissa, just in case.
All of Larissa’s rooms should be decorated bright and cozy.
‘Of course, it’s good now, but just a little bit more.’
Sophia nodded her head vigorously, trying to memorize everything I had said.
“This is the dressing room.”
There are three large rooms in the dressing room.
“We have filled half the dressing room as instructed by Master, in a hurry.”
Where the hell did all these clothes come from?
I couldn’t keep my mouth closed.
I was also surprised when he had prepared several boxes of luxurious clothes that fit my size in one night before.
But this time, many clothes were hanging in the same size as if they had been brought from an entire dressing room.
Sophia simply explained in a calm tone, “From here to here are the dresses for the spring outing, and from there are the coats and capes you can simply put on.”
And the party dresses, the matching hats, and shoes……
The brief explanation did not end there.
There are so many clothes, but there are still plenty of empty spaces in the dressing room.
“We don’t know what you like, so we prepared as many and as varied as we could. And here……”
Sophia pointed at the dressing table.
There were several catalogs of the dressing room.
“We’ve rounded up some of the famous dressing rooms in the estate. If you choose a place you like, I’ll tell the maid to go over there and bring some sample clothes.”
This is already a lot, but there’s more?
‘The Grand Duke’s wealth is really great.’
I smiled.
It was a great welcome, because my determination to get a hundred dresses didn’t dilute in the slightest.
