Chapter 350

Please forgive the demonic remodeling.

The next day, the tailor arrived just as planned.

“This is it.”

What the tailor Sally took out while saying that was a uniform… I think?Although it was only temporary sewing, so the actual fabric wasn’t used, but there were many laces fitted on it, moreover, they were bountifully incorporated at the front of the collar and the cuffs. Even though it was only a sample of the uniform, I really want to remodel it.

“……”

As I stared with my mouth wide open, Okaasama gave instructions to Sally in satisfaction.

“Indeed, this much of laces is fine. All that’s left is the embroidery…”“I intend on embroidering near the cuffs and the collar, and also the lining of the jacket.”

… Excuse me? You want more?Moreover, something like embroidering the lining… won’t I look like a delinquent-!What Sally proposed was a large crest of the Ellisfeed Household embroidered with a golden thread in the middle of the back surrounded with the motif of roses, she showed Okaasama a delicate design she drew.Wa, wait a moment…? Why can’t I help but think that clothes with so much embroidery would be too heavy to wear? Moreover, I don’t want to wear clothes like that at all~!Additionally, I am still growing. And yet, wearing a uniform that would fit me so precisely…

Can’t we just assume that everyone would be wearing baggy uniforms that would be too big for them at the school entrance ceremony?When I asked Miria later she told me: “Commoners aside, dignified nobles like you, Cristea-sama, would have their uniforms remade when they become small.” … h, how wasteful! When people find out that the uniform doesn’t fit your body, you will be losing face for your parents, and “the children will be miserable if satisfactory arrangements weren’t made” so this apparently cannot happen no matter what. Ehhh…N, not good. This is not the time to be absentminded. If I don’t do anything about this demonic remodeling, I won’t be able to show myself in public!

“Umm… for me, wearing such gaudy uniform is a little bit…”

I don’t want to wear it~

“Cristea, hoping for something simple as you did on the New Years is prohibited.”

Oou, Okaasama rejected me right away… however, I cannot pull back here! For the sake of stress-free school life!

“However, Okaasama. I am enrolling into the academy in pursuit of knowledge, so I believe that gaudy ornaments like this are not necessary.”“…? What are you saying? That may be possible for gentlemen who will support the country in the future, but when speaking about the purpose behind the enrollment of women who will be protecting the homes in the future, it’s to deepen their social relationships, no?”“… Eh?”

But, I mean, don’t those with magical power study magic in the school?

“There rarely appear people praiseworthy for their research, but… you are not thinking that you will be one of them… do you?”

Hiii! Okaasama, you are smiling, but your eyes aren’t, you know!? Scary! Too scary!!

“Ye… yesh.”

“Besides, because the New Year’s dress was tailored to your wishes, the women apparently talked how it didn’t suit your status on the tea parties, you know?”

… Well, of course? Rather than that over the top frilly dress, a simple one would stand much more… he, hii!? Okaasama is quietly angry…!Was she annoyed by people talking behind her back? If so, stopping the demonic remodeling might be difficult… awawa.

“Okusama, this might be impudent of me, but that was an opinion of a small group of people. In fact, it is only a little by little, but I am getting orders for dresses with reserved designs.”

When Sally said so timidly, Okaasama looked at her in surprise.

“My, is that so?”“Yes, Countess Cornelio and Marchioness Mardrik who are famed for their good tastes praised the dress. They spoke how they admire your way of cultivating the public opinion of your daughter and how they want to raise a modest lady as well…”“Myyy, is, is that so… indeed, those people really have good tastes. They understood the worth of Cristea’s dress, did they not?”

Okaasama was not dissatisfied and her mood cheered up completely. I am glad.

“In fact, I am already preparing a uniform that was based on Cristea-sama’s New Year’s dress.”

Y, yaay… although it’s not a complete dismissal, I was able to avoid the demonic remodling~! I did my best! Good girl!
