Tensei Reijou wa Shomin no Aji ni Uete Iru Chapter 240

Chapter 240

Good morning .

I, who woke up at the usual time squirmed into easy-to-move-in clothes .

I have asked Miria to clear people out at this time before the breakfast, so I can do morning yoga without worries .

The fire in the fireplace has already gone off, so I set the fire to the twigs and bark by myself with Fire magic .
Although there is a tool with a flint-like magic stone, it’s faster to do it with Fire magic in my case, so I’m not using it .

Crackle, crackle… the firewood started burning, and I stared at the flickering flame rising .
In my past life, homes with fireplace were nice… I admired them, but actually using them was quite troublesome . The people preparing the firewood also have it difficult .

Although it’s already prepared for me for an easy use, woodcutters had to cut the trees before that, the leaves and branches had to be removed, cut to easy-to-transport length, the servants at the mansion then had to cut the logs into easy-to-use sizes and the maids had to carry it all the way here… it has to pa.s.s through many hands .

I felt grateful and said to myself that I won’t use the fireplace that often, but I was told that the n.o.bility pays appropriate money for it, thus I would be obstructing the people whose lives depend on it from making a living .

I then said why not pay more for it, but the price of the firewood would apparently raise and the commoners wouldn’t be able to afford it .
Hmm, so difficult .

Right, commoners have it even more difficult . Preparing firewood for the winter is a matter of life or death .
I heard that if they can’t afford a lot of firewood cheaply, they would have to save all the little firewood they have for cooking, and will be then stuck living in a freezing home .

Come to think of it, s.h.i.+n told me that when his parents were alive, they were all snuggled to each other under a single blanket in order to warm up…
s.h.i.+n said「It was so cramped and Tousan was snoring too loud, it was horrible」while laughing, but it’s a secret I found it a little bit envious . No, I wasn’t envious of the snoring though .

In my case, the room as always warm, but we have never slept together as a family…
n.o.bles are like that, but I think that’s regrettable .

But, I’m frightened to think of Otousama’s reaction if I asked him about that now…

I’m currently blessed by the mofumofu paradise, so I will carefully withdraw that idea . Hoho .

I cast Clear magic on myself after the morning yoga, changed my clothes and went for breakfast .

It’s pancakes as was declared . You can properly choose from the apple jam, fresh cream, b.u.t.ter and also bacon and eggs .

「N? This is? A jam?」

Otousama noticed the unfamiliar apple jam . Hmm, how sharp .

「Yes . We made an apple jam」
「Hou? Apple jam is my first…」

Otousama gave it a try right away .

「It’s delicious even if you add fresh cream to it」
「Fumu」

He garnished his pancake with the fresh cream and apple jam and brought it to his mouth .

「… N, this is… not too sweet and easy to eat . Moreover… what is it? This peculiar aroma…」
「It’s cinnamon . I put in powdered cinnamon」
「Cinnamon…? Isn’t that a medicine? Why add that?」

Knowing that medicine is inside, Otousama frowned a little .

「Cinnamon warms up the body . It’s perfect for this cold season, its peculiar flavor is also truly a taste for adults」
「… Uwa, truly . What a unique aroma . I don’t dislike it, but I would manage without it…」

Is Oniisama poor with cinnamon?
I believe it’s addictive good aroma once you get used to it, but…

Otousama and Okaasama liked it, so it seems that I can present a pie with cinnamon in it to Queen-sama without worries .

This afternoon, Otousama is going to the royal palace, while Okaasama was invited for a tea party . She was sure to tell me that we will be selecting shoes, accessories, ornaments and stuff this morning… I can’t escape .

Alright, why don’t I finish it in the afternoon?

Is Oniisama poor with cinnamon?. I believe it’s addictive good aroma once you get used to it, but….

Otousama and Okaasama liked it, so it seems that I can present a pie with cinnamon in it to Queen-sama without worries
