The Villain Wants to Live Quietly - The Villain Wants to Live Quietly chapter 164
Special Chapter. Now, not two, but three (4)
Ludwig had to really sweat to stop the two of them.
Fortunately, both mother and daughter tend to listen to him, so it’s a shame.
Taking the reconciled mother and daughter, Ludwig went out to the village for a while.
It was because he liked to be at home so much that the two of them naturally thought it would be cramped together.
I finished all the work I had to do today, so there was nothing to worry about.
“But why am I here… … ?”
And Paula, who was caught in the middle of this happy family, looked around blankly with her eyes wide open.
Of course, it was natural for the servant to follow the owner, but she wasn’t so careless as to interfere with family outings.
“If you’re curious, why don’t you ask my daughter?”
“Yes? Miss Anise… Are you talking?”
“yes.”
Suddenly, Paula, who wanted to mention Anise here, turned her head and looked down at Anis, who was holding her hand tightly. She smiled brightly and raised her arms.
“I wanted to play with Paula!”
“ah… You did. But lady, today is a long-awaited outing for the three of us, so the next time you invite me… … .”
For some reason, Paula took notice of Emilia.
That would also be the case, because Ludwig never came out of the house, so for her it was a long-awaited outing with him.
Besides, there was even anise today, so it would be a very ebb and flow for the three of them to come out, but I didn’t want to get in the way and interfere with it.
Of course, she is smarter than her peers, but a young girl who has not even reached puberty can understand her feelings.
“Hey, does Paula want to play with Anis?”
“Yeah, can that be?”
“hehehe, then, are you going to play together?”
“… … .”
Paula, who was at a loss for what to do with the reaction of Anis, who was so pure and bright, inadvertently met Emilia’s gaze.
When she sent an apologetic glance at this, Emilia instead shook her head and smiled happily.
Even if Paula didn’t follow, it was her intention to bring her anyway.
Originally, Paula’s companion, Grita, worked together at the mansion, so it was less boring, but now that she was in Lutentia for a while, he didn’t want to leave her alone.
Others might ask why they favor servants so much, but it was possible because Emilia had never particularly thought of her as a servant.
The only thing she thought of as a servant was Grita, who had been waiting on her since she was a child, and Paula, if I had to say it, was a grateful friend who took care of Jung-in all the time.
“If that’s what you mean, I understand. Is there anything else you would like to do?”
Now that Emilia had given her permission, it was rather disloyal to leave her seat.
After giving up everything like that, Paula bent down to meet Anise at eye level and asked a question.
“Ugh… I want to go to the doll shop first!”
“You mean a doll.”
It was a common interest for a girl this age, so Paula quickly nodded in agreement.
Meanwhile, Ludwig, who was listening to the conversation between the two, thought of a place when he heard the word doll shop.
It was because the other day, while Emilia was away at her parents’ house for a while, there was a place she had passed by in the car she took to play with Anise.
“Then shall we go to the place we saw before? anise.”
“If there… Is that where the bear was!?”
“Teddy bear? Is there anything you would like to buy?”
“Yeah!? Oh, that’s actually… Ehehehe… … .”
At that time, the time for the carriage to come was also set, and Ludwig thought that he had just passed it by due to the lack of circumstances, but it seems that Anis had a friend whom he had marked ahead of time.
Otherwise, how can I remember that there was a teddy bear in detail?
“If there was a doll you wanted to buy, it would have been nice if you had told me. Dad didn’t even know that.”
“But… Didn’t Mom say it’s not okay to ask for too much?”
Except for things related to Ludwig, Emilia’s generous nature meant she wouldn’t have spoken very firmly.
Nevertheless, Ludwig put his hand on her head with a hearty smile as he looked at his daughter who listened to him right away.
“That’s not what my mom meant. It’s okay to tell me if there’s something you want, but if your dad or mom says no, you have to know how to give up.”
“aha… … !”
It’s something you’ll have to figure out later on.
Above all, Ludwig believed that the fact that Anise had listened to her mother and accepted it without saying anything, and that the fact that she had endured the desire to have it once was enough to indicate that she had grown up.
‘I don’t want to make the daughter of an aristocratic family happy and happy with just one doll.’
Not to mention Emilia’s original family, the Aifretz family was also one of the most authentic and well-known families.
I didn’t want to make my daughter play emotionally, saying that it would be no problem at most to buy one doll from the store.
“Then are you going to the store?”
“I guess so. Don’t you have a place you want to go? Emilia.”
“Huh, I’m just happy that I went out like this after a long time. Of course, if possible, I would like to take at least one set of clothes that my husband picked out for me.”
In fact, Ludwig was unusually good at aesthetics, but his sense of choosing clothes was not zero.
It was because the clothes she would wear were also inspected by Emilia or Paula every time.
However, there was someone who would pick out clothes for him, and that was Emilia.
It wasn’t because she was wearing clothes that her husband had chosen for her and they weren’t pretty, but because Emilia’s clothes were really well chosen.
To put it bluntly, even Tanya, who was always cold towards Ludwig, said that she was very good at choosing Emilia’s clothes.
“Anyway, if that’s the case. Shall we buy some clothes for our daughter?”
“like! But Dad, can I ask you one favor?”
“yes. What are you asking for?”
Anis, who had been fidgeting for a while, pointed at Paula with her finger and said,
“I want to give a present to Paula too!”
“Clothes?”
“Yeah!”
From Paula’s point of view, it was more embarrassing than the request to play together, but the other two showed no big deal.
“Then, should my daughter choose Paula’s clothes herself?”
“Really? Wow!”
When Emilia gave her permission, Anise cheered as if it were her first job and was delighted to be able to present the clothes to Paula.
However, even in the midst of such a friendly atmosphere, Ludwig had a question in his heart, which was why Anis wanted to give Paula a gift.
‘Is it because he treats me so well?’
If you don’t think it’s a big deal, you might think so, but I thought there must be a reason for wanting to give you clothes, not anything else.
“By the way, Anis, why did you want to give Paula clothes as a gift?”
This was an element that Paula was quite curious about, so I naturally listened to it.
Anis’ answer to this was really naive… … .
“Paula seems to have only one outfit, so Anise wanted to give it to her!”
The silence continued for about 3 seconds.
Soon, Ludwig, unable to hold back his laughter, leaked out as if the air was escaping.
“… Pooh!”
“Lu, Ludwig is also true. If you laugh at your daughter’s innocent innocence… Put!”
“Huh?”
When Anis was raising a question mark above her head at the sight of her parents suddenly bursting into laughter, Paula sneaked up to her and hugged her.
“My lady, leave the two of you alone for a while and come this way.”
“Yes… okay. But Paula, what’s wrong with your lips?”
Paula, who felt his heart pounding and shrank for a moment, responded that he did not know why.
“Lips, what are you talking about… … ?”
“yes? But Paula’s lips keep twitching?”
“Oh, no. Looks like you’re looking at it wrong… Big!”
In the end, after announcing defeat at Anis’ innocence, Paula turned her head away for a moment, took out her smile, and faced Anis again with a calm face as if nothing had happened.
It could be said as an example of how sincere she is in her day job.
“Ah, anyway, I’ll hopefully accept the lady’s favor with gratitude.”
“yes! I’ll pick out the prettiest clothes in the store!”
Despite the rants of a girl not even ten years old, Paula felt a certain trust.
Anise’s father, Ludwig, also sometimes exuded unfounded confidence, and considering that he felt the same way then as he does now, it seems that the auras the two exude are similar.
Paula, who got into the Ipretz family, cautiously took Anis’ hand and walked together in unison.
“Then it’s decided, shall we go? Mom will go with Dad, so Anise takes Paula’s hand and follows her.”
“Hey… Paula! Mom is trying to steal Dad again! Help me!”
“Unfortunately, that’s not something I can do… … .”
it would have been confusing maybe.
