Upon hearing the news that Sargulrak had bloomed, Uhu revealed their presence. Since Stella had not shown her full appearance during that time, it was a delight to meet Uhu again after a long time.
“Stella, Sargulrak is a very special flower. If you pluck one petal and eat it, the fatigue accumulated in your body will dissipate, and if you drink the dew on the petals, you can endure three days without sleep as if you had slept well. Just a sip will make you feel refreshed, as if you’ve slept deeply for several hours. But you have to be careful. If you drink too much, even if you want to sleep, you won’t be able to, and your appetite will also plummet. Above all, isn’t it truly beautiful? It seems like it was created with the sunlight directly cut through to make the petals.”
Uhu, enchanted by the beauty of Sargulrak, squinted their eyes and let out a sigh full of lingering emotions.
“Oh, by the way! If you look closely at the area where Sargulrak is planted, you can see small shoots poking out, right?”
“Yes, I see.”
“If you separate those and soak them in water for a day, white fine roots will grow. Then plant them again at that time. Then you’ll have even more beautiful Sargulrak.”
“Wow! It can grow so quickly.”
“Of course. You are a noble farmer, and this land is richly blessed by the goddess Terra. That flower will bring great fortune to you.”
Uhu looked at Stella with a warm smile, an expression reminiscent of a grandfather smiling kindly at his granddaughter. Stella couldn’t help but feel moved as she looked at the much smaller Uhu.
How nice it would be to have a grandfather like Uhu. She thought about how comforting it would be to have someone to share a corner of her heart with on lonely and sad days.
“Thank you. Thanks to you, I feel like I’ve gained a lot.”
“It’s thanks to you that we’ve gradually found strength and driven away those wicked things from this land. I can’t express how grateful I am.”
The two sat side by side on the chair Daelun had brought for Stella, gazing at the peonies, and shared stories for a long time.
Even just sitting here and looking at each other, all worries seemed to disappear.
Caitlyn woke up in the morning, took a walk around the castle, and squinted her eyes when she found something sparkling in the Verdura Gardens.
“What is that?”
It looked as if a pile of gold coins was stacked in the middle of the Verdura Gardens. Manolia Castle, where Caitlyn lived, was on the opposite side of Verdura, separated by a wide road. So, if she observed with interest from the balcony, she could see half of Verdura’s garden.
Sending her daughter to the Credion Empire and receiving nothing more than a set of golden tea cups as a gift, King Amalun couldn’t possibly have sent such a large amount of gold coins to stack in the garden.
Even if one had that much money, they wouldn’t stack it in the middle of the garden like that.
Unable to resist her curiosity, Caitlyn went to Verdura and opened her mouth in amazement at the sight that was hard to believe even when seen.
What she thought might be gold coins was actually sparkling peonies.
“The peonies Princess Anette gave weren’t that color, were they?”
Since Caitlyn was also present at the tea party in Muege Castle, she vividly remembered how unimpressive the peonies Stella had obtained from Anette were.
Of course, the peonies were healthy, but the ones Stella got were withered and wilted, with flower petals as plain and brown as fallen magnolia blossoms on the ground.
Finding it both pitiful and amusing that Stella obtained such flowers with enthusiasm, even after she left, the princesses who attended the tea party continued to talk about it for a long time.
As Caitlyn approached the gate of Verdura Castle, the guards stationed in front of the gate noticed her and naturally opened the gate.
The interaction among the princesses within the palace was a natural occurrence.
Caitlyn, as if enchanted, approached the place where the golden peonies bloomed.
“Princess Caitlyn?”
Caitlyn, who was staring at the flowers absentmindedly, only then realized that she was standing in the middle of Verdura Castle’s garden, upon hearing Stella’s voice suddenly.
“Ah…”
It was absurd and unbelievable, but the situation couldn’t be ignored. Caitlyn, feeling helpless, extended a polite and affectionate greeting.
“Princess Stella, good morning.”
Stella, without showing any surprise, looked at Caitlyn, who had come unexpectedly, and asked with curiosity.
“What brings you here?”
Caitlyn quickly searched for an excuse, but nothing appropriate came to mind. However, amidst it all, the meticulously shining peonies, as if sprinkled with gold dust, kept stealing her gaze.
“The flowers are so beautiful. I came in without realizing it. I apologize.”
While offering an apology, Caitlyn’s expression showed no remorse at all.
“But, Princess Stella, is this golden peony different from the one sent by Princess Anette from Muege Castle recently?”
“No. It is the flower Princess Anette sent.”
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
