Chapter: 61
Astelle never came to see the emperor.
It was only three or four days ago that she was forced with Theor to attend dinner with the emperor.
Marianne really didn’t know that, so she just said whatever was on her mind.
At Marianne’s words, other people’s eyes turned to Astelle.
As if asking her to explain why there she had so many medicines.
“Lady Marianne.”
Astelle looked at Marianne with cold eyes.
“Lady Marianne had younger sisters, right?”
“……huh?”
Marianne was bewildered at the unexpected question.
“What are you talking about suddenly?”
“Didn’t the nanny hired by the mansion always keep medicines in the drawer for Lady Marianne and your sisters? There must be some simple cold medicine, stomach-ache medicine, various ointments to apply depending on the type of wound, and stabilizers when the child is very surprised.”
Of course, the nanny taking care of the child works with the medicines ready.
Because children always get sick all the time.
Day and night always needed medicines.
Marianne couldn’t answer.
When she thought about it, it seemed that what Astelle said was true. The nanny always has a lot of medicine.
“Theor is only 5 years old now. He often catches a cold, so I need cold medicine, antipyretic, cough medicine, headache medicine, and stomach upset medicine. If the child gets hurt, I also need a kind of ointment to apply to the wound,” Astelle explained calmly.
“Theor had severe flu not long ago. The pharmacist said that his physical strength was weakened due to the aftereffect of the flu. The nutritional supplement alone is three bottles.”
Well, it wasn’t quite a lie.
Theor was very healthy, but he sometimes suffered colds.
In the first week Astelle ran away with her grandfather because of the rebellion in the south, Theor had a severe cold because he couldn’t adjust to an unfamiliar environment.
Astelle made nutritional supplements she had learned from Gretel and fed it to Theor.
It was because she was worried that Theor would get tired while moving from place to place.
‘Well, it doesn’t mean that there is no other medicine besides those ordinary medicines.’
