The Young Lady Tames the Main Leads

It was worth it. The design of the dress I asked for was preferred by the elderly. Sometimes, it was ordered and worn by young people from extremely strict families.

My mom and dad, including the tailor and Carrie, were all shocked by my choice.

I didn’t want that design for any specific reason.

It was just comfortable.

The designs with frills and ribbons look cute but they’re uncomfortable. They may be intended to be worn to places like banquet halls, but it was unreasonable for daily life. It’s hard to walk around with these legs.

That’s why I chose a design that fits tightly with buttons that open easily and sleeves that were tight. The fabric was also perfect because it did not stain easily.

That’s why I picked this outfit today.

The nanny tried to stop me at first, but she gave up eventually.

‘I know how nanny feels, but……’

It’s a kindergarten where the prince and the princess will be attending. Maybe the other children will be from high-ranking noble families. In this situation, it’s best to go wearing something neat and comfortable.

‘That’s enough preparation.’

Fortunately, Jake didn’t wait very long.

I think it’s almost time for him to finish a cup of tea.

Thinking of Jake waiting in the parlor, I picked up the caramel bags on the table.

Now, it was really time to go to kindergarten.

“You’re wearing your favorite clothes, aren’t you? You look like a yellow chick, it looks good on you.”

Jake said that with wide eyes as soon as I entered the parlor.

You have a good eye. I nodded.

“Right. Come to think of it, Jake, your bowtie is also yellow.”

“Oh, it is.”

Jake looked down at my dress and blushed.

Then he tilted his head and looked at me.

“But what are you holding, Mir?”

“Yeah, these are things I’ll give out in kindergarten. It’s caramel that I made myself.”

Jake stared blankly at the caramel bags while I answered. He looked back at me when I said the last sentence. What? What’s wrong with him?

I was curious but soon I knew the answer.

Jake said sadly.

“I see. Mir’s new friends…… so it’s not for me……”

“Hmm? What are you talking about? There are some for you too.”

No wonder you felt sad.

I picked up the heaviest bag of caramel and handed it to Jake.

“You’re my best friend, I won’t leave you out. I have the prettiest and biggest caramel in this bag.”

“……Thank you, Mir!”

I laughed when I saw Jake happy again.

I didn’t know what would happen later because of that caramel bag.

“We’re here, miss.”

Jake and I left for kindergarten in our own family carriages. It didn’t take long to get there because the place, which was given the simple name of the Imperial Kindergarten, was close to the center of the capital. It was very close to the Marquis house. I was wondering what would happen there in the vast land owned by the Imperial Family, but it was just a kindergarten.

‘A small building in this golden land? What a waste!’

That was my first thought as soon as I got out of the carriage.

It was a snobbish and capitalist idea, but it was an inevitable thought for me since I lived in the 21st century. Indeed, His Majesty cares a lot about his daughter.

“That’s a splendid building.”

I murmured looking at the building in front of me.

I said it was small, but it was only small compared to the size of the land.

It was too big for a kindergarten with only six children!

It was half the size of most mansions and it was two stories even though it could be a single story.

There was a fountain with a golden statue in front of the building.

Surrounding the area was a shallow, man-made stream……

‘It’s like a big dollhouse just for the princess.’

And I think I’m one of the dolls who will be in it.

I managed to calm down and the goosebumps on my arm disappeared.

“Welcome, Young Master Jake Teon. Young Lady Emir Saeron.”

It was none other than two of the imperial family knights guarding the entrance.
