Can Someone Please Explain This Situation

Chapter 29
Ch . 29 In the Maid’s Conversation


“If you do not leave soon then, you really will not be on time”


Persistently indifferent, Lotus again requested the non-moving Duke .  


“but there is no way I will leave her like this . Her complexion is bad, even after settling down a bit more”


The Duke is still persistent .


“Nevertheless, was not today going to be a important meeting?”


As expected of Lotus . He has a firm understanding of the Duke’s schedule .


“……”


The Duke who is kneeling at the bedside holding my hand tightens his grip . Bringing up the subject of the important meeting the Duke seems to be lost for words . I mean, being late for an important meeting is strictly prohibited! As a working adult!    


“……I got it . But report on her condition”


The Duke’s has become a little sulky .


No, excuse me . It is not such a exaggerated thing to the degree of calling it condition . It is uncomfortable and I become a little smaller inside the futon .   


“Certainly”


After Lotus respectfully acknowledging gave a bow of his head in a.s.sent to the Duke, again facing me he once again tightly grasped the hand he recovered and has not yet let go of,


“I’m off but, I’ll return home as soon as possible . Until then please rest . Dahlia, if it seems her condition is changing call the doctor”


While also looking worried he smiles pleasantly .


“Ye, ss”


“Certainly”


And then the Duke, who at last releases my hand, quickly puts on his uniform coat he receives from his accompanying maid,   


“Well then, please earnestly stay put”


After another reminder he and Lotus leave the room together .








“Huha~~~ . Ow, ww”


The Duke left and, most of the strength has gone out from my body but the stomach pain has not yet lessened .


“Mimosa will probably return very soon . Just endure it a little more”


Dahlia says as she gently strokes the side of my stomach .


“If I had thinned out the number of dishes it would have been better . Madam, I am sorry for not being sensible”


Carthame is again feeling despondent .


“If I had also been helpful it would have been better . I am sorry”


Dahlia said apologetically with the end of her eyebrow lowered . The married couple quickly lowered their heads together but, the who could not persist is me!


“No, no . ……ow”


I want to speak but I cannot talk .


“Mistress please do not speak anymore because we are fine!”


Dahlia stopped in hot haste .


Right at that time . There is a hurried knock on the door, Mimosa *clattering* enters . In her hand she is holding a cup with a green coloured soup in it . She has crushed up medicinal herbs for me . There was no time to boil them so, in emergency procedures this is sufficient .


“I have kept you waiting!! Mistress, quickly drink!”


Saying this she hands over the cup with the medicine in it but, it is a very garish green . Or perhaps I should say it is dark green . It is syrupy and my nose seems to be paralysed by the dense gra.s.sy-smell of various mixed kinds of medicinal plants . If I drink this I will become comfortable . But by no means will it be a delicious thing . If I was able to I would not want to drink it . But for the sake of becoming comfortable it cannot be helped . ……I came close to an endless loop of thoughts . Wouldn’t it be better to fight against the intestinal terror than drink this……my spirit came close to giving in but, I accidentally raise my gaze and, I happen to meet everyone’s earnest look so, I somehow or another, am able to be fired up . I am raised up by Mimosa, and she puts a lot of cushions behind my back and I lean against them, I drain the medicine soup in one gulp .   


Mint and lemon are pungent, it is not as unpleasant as I thought . Surely Mimosa and Bellis came up with it in order for it to be easy to drink . I’m grateful~


Immediately as I drink it the mint benefit appears, my stomach vicinity is refreshed . The stomachache is still there but, it seems that the stomach constriction is instantly sorted out . ho .


“Ah~…… thanks . It has become a bit more, comfortable”


I can now talk smoother than some time ago .


“Haa~! Thank goodnesss~!! I will give a ma.s.sage so your stomach becomes a little more comfortable”


Mimosa gives a broad smile from relief . Saying this she starts to push on the acupuncture points in center of my stomach .


“Ah~, that’s effective~!”

“Ah~, that’s effective~!”


It reaches the undersurface of my stomach exactly . Feels good .


“It is good it has become comfortable . In just a little bit please go to sleep . Just before noon I will bring medicine soup again”


Dahlia is also seems relieved, her face returned to normal .


“Yes . Thanks”


“Today please rest here shortly”


“If one does not move one cannot digest . If it settles down how about I go out to the garden?”


Dahlia once more faces me with a sober face .


“…… Please do not over do it”


*sigh of exasperation* Mistress~, she gives a resigning sigh along with reluctant acceptance . Well after all I have gourmet food poisoning from overeating so, it is not something to the degree of staying in bed .  


“I won’t . Just newly arrived flowers are growing”


I will not run around! I will not do such things that will hurt my side [st.i.tch] like that, am I not saying such things? I look at Dahlia’s face of resignation with upturned eyes .  


“Understood . Mimosa, please supervise her”


*sulky*, do you not believe me? Dahlia is exchanging looks with Mimosa and nodding .


“Yes! Certainly!”


In response to Dahlia’s expectations, Mimosa swings her head front-to-back in a big way .








I end up lying down and sleeping for a little while and, when I wake up my stomach-ache has disappeared once and for all . There is still a feeling of inflation but, if it does not hurt it’s not a problem!


“Have you woken up? How is the pain?”


Dahlia, who noticed I have woken up, approaches in order to see the situation in full detail .  


“Yes, the pain has completely disappeared . Thanks”


The stiffness from the pain has also disappeared, completely . I am a trifle stiff .


The stiffness from the pain has also disappeared, completely . I am a trifle stiff .


“If you rest for a bit longer I will bring in the medicine . What will you do for lunch?”


This time there is time so, it seems they will prepare the boiled things . It will be like tea so, it will be much easier to drink than the crude medicine, I don’t need to prepare myself for the worst so I am happy .


“I’ll pa.s.s on lunch . Instead I wonder if shall I have light meal at afternoon tea time”


“Certainly”


Saying this, Dahlia leaves the room in order to give various instructions .








After drinking the medicine I change into the uniform and go out to the garden . Today in order to accelerate digestion let’s go for it and work! I pull out weeds and plant flowers according to Bellis’ instructions . Bellis is the high-end of the hierarchy in the territory of the garden! He will be angry if something unplanned is planted in an unplanned place . I know that if it is done the way of the instructions it will become a garden of wonderful harmony so, I stopped arranging as I please . With things I want to plant to suit myself, I received a trifling s.p.a.ce for my personal use so I do it there .      


After a little while my stomach has also diminished . Right then Bellis said,


“Soon it is time for break . Mistress and Mimosa shall we go the dining room?”


“That’s right, let’s call it a night for today . If the Duke comes back early it will troublesome”


I get up and, brush off the dirt attached to my knees and skirt . The light meal has probably been prepared in the dining room (of course the servant dining), today I will pa.s.s on breaking in the garden .   


“Bellis’ share of tea has been prepared on the greenhouse table . Well then Mistress, let us return”


Saying this Mimosa urged me to the main residence .


In the servants dining, it has exactly overlapped with the maids rest time, it is a place where you brew your cup of tea as you please, and have tea cake sweets .


“Mistress, are you okay now?”


“Do not overdo it too much, it would be better to leave the work for later”


“That’s right~”


Etcetera, etcetera . The maids see my recovered figure and while feeling relieved the greet me .


“Sorry to worry you! I’m okay now, sorry”  


While answering this I also prepare my light meal and sit at my seat .


“You are probably also tired from today”


“Maybe that’s right~”


“You are probably also tired from today”


“Maybe that’s right~”


That’s right . There is also that, surely . Because it was a tiring~ situation both mentally and physically . The quality and quant.i.ty! (mainly quality) coupled with the existence of the Duke there, I succ.u.mbed to the terror! While I am nodding my head *uh huh* at various things that ring a bell I gulp down my light meal .


“Speaking of yesterday, Companion-sama lost her temper~”


The maid who was on duty at the detached building yesterday said with reproachful eyes .


“Uh-huh, probably because Master suddenly said he would stay at the main residence”


“Right”


“He eats dinner here everyday so, she is as displeased as she could possibly be”


“It does not mean that she picks a fight so it is good but, lately, her brows are always wrinkled”


To that extent she is more obsessed with her beauty~ her wrinkles were certainly increasing as it was”


“Dresses and jewels, lately it seems she cannot receive them brand new as she pleases?”


“She does not need anymore because she possesses that much”


“Hmm~?”


It is not just the Duke’s maid, other maids also join in the conversation . Until then I have just been silently listening to the conversation and absorbed in eating but,


“


The Duke and Her, are quarreling, right?”


The thing that has been on my mind continuously ended up leaving my mouth .


Thereupon,  


“““Huh? No?”””


The Duke’s maids say uniformly say with fabergasted faces .


“Oh . Then I wonder why does he come here everyday to eat dinner?”


I incline my head and think .


If they aren’t fighting then what on earth is going on?
