After meeting Sir Rembrandt and returning, the Marquess was elated. Then, with a smug expression, he recounted to Lady Marquess the sensational proposal he received from Sir Rembrandt, leading to a scream-like uproar.
“Are you insane?! You thanked him for that?!”
Covering his aching ear after being struck by the thunderbolt, the Marquess scowled, wrinkling his bushy eyebrows.
“What? This lady here. Why are you yelling?”
The prestige of our Julius Marquess is soaring, but why does this woman’s refinement remain at rock bottom? How can she lack elegance and grace?
Lady Marquess, trembling, stammered, utterly uncomposed.
“Rembrandt said he would send the maids, the maids. And you agreed to that without consulting me?!”
The Marquess expressed his irritation with a thunderous outburst.
“You’ve complained to me several times about the maids dying, haven’t you? Wasn’t that what you wanted?”
Rembrandt is already well aware of our difficult situation!
The considerate and gentlemanly proposal from Rembrandt naturally came to mind.
“We, along with our attendants, have been staying longer than expected, and Arthur and the knights are also staying at the mansion.”
“Lately, you seem to be concerned about various things.”
“We are always grateful for the care you provide, but I am uneasy about such a large number of people staying here for so long.”
“I can imagine how much effort the Marquess and Lady Marquess put into caring for us with limited manpower.”
“However, I am concerned that having this many people stay for such a long time might be burdensome for the mansion.”
“Although I didn’t announce the gift in advance—gifts are not meant to be announced—I’ve been preparing a small gift to help lessen the burden for Lady Marquess.”
“I’ve been preparing it without mentioning it because it might be intrusive if you find it unnecessary.”
“I wanted to briefly see you amid your busy schedule and let you know, as I thought it would be impolite not to inform the Marquess in advance and inquire about your intentions.”
And Sir Rembrandt explained that he had carefully selected around thirty skilled maids who could assist Julius Mansion during our stay. He asked if it would not be disrespectful to send them. These were individuals with clear and confirmed backgrounds, without any questionable connections with other nobles. They were capable maids beyond doubt.
He thought that even if the Marquess and Lady Marquess could reduce the burden of caring for our Imperial party, it would be helpful.
Of course, it’s perfectly fine for the Marquess and his wife to comfortably use the main residence of the mansion. However, considering that the Marquess’s wife might feel uncomfortable, I thought it would be acceptable for them to receive assistance only in taking care of the Imperial entourage. What do you think about that?
Above all, the reason the Marquess was overwhelmed with gratitude after receiving this proposal was that the maids Rembrandt suggested, saying, “If permitted, they could work here,” were none other than “maids who have been working in the royal palace and are taking a temporary break as part of their retirement.”
Maids who took care of the royal palace are now looking after Julius Mansion! To the Marquess, it felt as if Julius Mansion had become no different from the royal palace.
The Marquess was excited. Wasn’t this a clear expression of trust, alliance, and goodwill from the royal family? The Marquess wanted to boast about receiving such a proposal to the visitors of Julius Mansion as soon as possible! He felt a sense of regret for missing the opportunity to introduce and build rapport with the Crown Prince, who had visited the mansion some time ago. The Marquess vowed not to miss this proposal, no matter what.
Immediately, leaning forward, he expressed intense gratitude for Rembrandt’s kindness and thoughtfulness.
“Sir Rembrandt…! How can you be so considerate!”
“I’m not sure if it’s not impolite for me to accept such a large gift so suddenly.”
He was inwardly nervous.
Sir Rembrandt should not change his words, especially about the royal household staff being difficult!
“Even without Sir Rembrandt, I’ve been very concerned because there weren’t enough maids!”
“Ah, it was by no means difficult because of Sir Rembrandt.”
“Recently, important guests have been visiting the mansion unexpectedly frequently, and due to the perfectionism of an overly careful person who cannot employ maids that are not certain, we couldn’t hire maids without clear backgrounds!”
“……. ”
Having thought so far, the Marquess glared at his wife with building annoyance.
I went so far as to skillfully set her up so that she wouldn’t be embarrassed like this.
Instead of being grateful, she even made a disrespectful remark.
However, rather than being pleased, the Marquess’s wife scowled at him with a lack of dignity.
“You… You!”
Male lead is a clingy little husband
One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
Introduction:
One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.
One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.
As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.
From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.
But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.
Mini scene 1:
One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.
Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”
Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”
Mini scene 2:
After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.
Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”
Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.
[Reading Guide]
1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
