The Young Lady Tames the Main Leads

Chapter 138

unedited

The guards were surprised when they saw the fallen robber duo.

“Captain! Most of the items found in this person’s pocket were reported as missing, right?”

“Oh my gosh, that’s true. The knight did a great job.”

Cedric received a thank-you from a man who was called the captain of the guard.

At first he thought it was awkward, but by the time he left the guards, he was smiling softly.

“……”

Jake looked at the scene and smiled slightly.

He must have dealt with the bad guys with his own magic, but it seems that all the tribute has been given to Cedric.

I pondered for a moment and then patted Jake.

“Jake, of course, Cedric bravely pulled out his sword and came out, but you defeated them with your magic. You did a great job.”

“Yes, I know. But thanks for saying that. Mir.”

Then Jake smiled brightly.

After that, we got on a carriage waiting in the forest and returned to our respective homes.

Of course, when I arrived at the Marquis’ residence, I got into trouble.

“Ah, miss…! The, the leg!”

The nanny and the rest of the household were startled to see my broken leg and were astonished that they were about to collapse.

It was the same with my parents who came back from going out.

But the surprise was only for a short time.

My family fed me various healing potions, and then called a healing wizard to heal my leg.

Only after that did they start nagging me.

It turned out that when they heard the news that I had injured my leg, the two of them canceled the schedule and immediately returned to the mansion.

“Emir, how did you break your leg? Do you know how worried this father and mother were?”

I didn’t tell anyone that I went to the market today.

Because everyone knew that I was invited to play by the kindergarten children.

“…it wasn’t like that while playing, it happened because I accidentally fell off the stairs.”

Somehow, I made excuses.

It wasn’t really an excuse, but it was the truth.

Anyway, after that, I had to lie in bed all the time.

The healing magic was used, but the advice of the wizard and the doctor was that if I move violently, the magic will be released and my leg bones may be misaligned again.

‘…Isn’t it okay to walk anyway?’

But my nanny and my parents never let me get up.

I couldn’t even go to kindergarten for three days and was ordered to stay still in bed.

When I went to the bathroom, I had to get help from the maids.

‘I can do it myself.’

I felt embarrassed because I felt like I was being overprotected somehow.

By the way……

‘Ugh, my stomach hurts!’

Since that evening, strangely, my stomach has been aching.

Did I have an upset stomach? It was almost the first time I had a strong stomach ache.

Maybe it was because I had only eaten fresh food that was good for my body since I was reincarnated.

‘What if?’

I remembered the food I ate when I went to the market.

To be precise, a stew that looked a bit suspicious.

‘…there were ingredients that were not suitable for the body, or the sanitary conditions were poor.’

The taste was awesome.

I thought to myself that I shouldn’t have eaten it, and I burst into tears.

Fortunately, when I drank the healing potion prepared next to me, my aching stomach was relieved.

At that time, the nanny who was nursing next to me on that day spoke to me, probably because I was bored.

“By the way, when the Miss went to a friend’s house to play, I went out too.”

“Yes? Nanny too? Where did you go?”

I already knew that the nanny had been to the market, but I asked her, pretending not to know.

Then the nanny continued while smiling faintly.

“I went to the market. Miss hasn’t been to a market yet, so you won’t know for sure, but I told you often, so you’ll know, right?”

“Aha, a place with a lot of people and selling various things, right?”

“Yes, that is correct.”

The nanny laughed.

I asked slyly.

“But nanny, why are you talking about the market all of a sudden?”

“Ah, there I saw a person who looked just like the Miss.”

“Some, someone who looks like me?”

I was startled.

That’s me.

After all, the nanny must have been quite surprised because of me at that time.

“Yes. Of course, she wasn’t the same age as the Miss, but she was a grown-up, so I wondered if the Miss would grow up to be that much when she came of age. Although I couldn’t see the detailed face, the atmosphere and the hair color were similar.”

“Ahaha, I see!”

I struggled to respond.

The nanny muttered while looking at me vaguely.

“Our Miss. You are so small, when are you going to grow up like that?”

I looked at the nanny for a moment and thought to myself.

‘Sometimes I wonder about that too.’

First of all, though, I was still an inexperienced little child, where time only flowed endlessly slow.
