My Daughters Have Regressed - Chapter 229

229 – They say it’s not over until it’s over! # 4
Cecily was a famous fashionista in Frisia.
This was because Garrot took Cecily around town every weekend and showed her off to his people.
Cecily also liked people looking up to her.
So Cecily always paid attention to the latest fashionable clothes and styles.
Even when Narunahina loved to walk around in the dirt, Cecily always gracefully wore a parasol and watched her sisters from a distance at her feet.
When Naru, who was covered in mud, saw Cecily and tried to hug her in joy, Cecily often got angry and fluffed her hair like a cat that discovered an unfamiliar intruder.
“My dress is getting dirty!”
Of course, Naru hugged Cecily without caring whether she was angry or not.
In that sense, Cecily was stylish.
But today, Cecily took the initiative and dug.
I asked as I was watching him digging the garden with a small trowel.
“What are you trying to ask? “The map you drew on the blanket last time?”
“No! And I told you that it wasn’t Cecily who drew the map, but Morumoru who spilled his glass of water while running wild!”
Cecily seemed like a very vicious cat.
Of course, he was just shouting like this, but in reality, he was somewhat cowardly and a bit too sassy.
Anyway, Cecily continued digging in the garden with a trowel.
Soon Naru and Hina appeared and started helping Cecily dig up the garden, and everyone came out to watch this scene.
“Why are you digging a hole? It’s clear they’re trying to bury that Sifnoi… ! Hehe… !”
Sifnoi trembled with fear.
The year the children turned five.
There was a time when the children, who had been running wild for a while, turned a pit into a trap to catch a nymph.
It was a very basic trap, just digging a hole and covering it with bushes.
However, Sifnoi walked without knowing anything and fell into a pit.
It seems that the memories of that time were very scary for Sifnoi.
“Judas, did you tell the kids something strange?”
Brigitte looked at me with her bewildered eyes.
They seemed to think that I had coaxed the kids into doing strange things.
Of course, I was innocent in this case.
Because there really wasn’t anything done.
Passyuk, Passyuk, Passyuk-.
The children dug in the garden for a long time whether adults were watching them or not.
In the case of a ferry, the trowel was put down and the ground was dug up with the hands.
Passchuk, Passchuk, Passchuk, Passchuk, Passchuk, Passchuk, Passchuk, Passchuk, Passchuk, Passchuk-.
“…”
Aren’t you digging too hard?
Since it is winter and the ground is frozen hard, it would be quite difficult to dig.
Garot, who was watching this scene, looked at the sky getting darker and said, “Hmm… ” “He made a worried sound.
Garrot approached Cecily and said.
“Cecily it will snow soon. I don’t know what kind of prank she’s playing, but the shoes she bought a while ago and her dress are dirty with dirt. There was dust on her face too.”
“…”
Cecily seemed so engrossed that she couldn’t hear what Garrot said.
Garrot looked at Cecily worriedly and added a word.
“Aristocrats must maintain a clean and beautiful appearance? Cecily, what you are doing right now may be unbecoming of a noble, but are you okay?”
“Gold remains gold even if it is buried in mud, so no matter how much dirt and dust gets on Cecily, her beauty will not tarnish!”
It was indeed the right story.
However, when Cecily, who usually hated getting her hands dirty, said something like that, Garot seemed very puzzled. But at the same time, she also seemed moved.
“Then now we can go hunting together again!”
Kang-!
Then Cecily heard the sound of something hard hitting the trowel she was holding.
She wondered if she had been hit by a rock, but she was the first to react to the sound of Narugai.
“This sound is the sound of pottery! Naru, as someone who has broken a lot of ceramics, I know better than anyone else about the sound of ceramics breaking… !”
Naru was a pottery master.
She loved breaking all kinds of pottery.
Thanks to that, Brigitte had a hobby of making pottery so that Naru could break it.
According to Brigitte, “It was difficult to make at first, but now it’s quite fun.”
As an aside, the pottery made by Brigitte was of a high standard and was sold at a high price to wealthy people.
Brigitte’s pottery was one of the main sources of income for our miscellaneous mansion.
“Together… Let’s dig!”
Hina showed motivation.
When Naru, Hina, and Cecily all gathered together to dig in the dirt, they saw something that looked like a small jar buried in the ground.
I took it out, shook off the dust, and shook out the contents on the floor.
Whisk.
Something old and old fell out of the jar.
It was a small and shabby scroll compared to the size of the jar.
“Ouch! “It’s a scroll!”
“Very suspicious…”
As Naru and Hina each reacted, Cecily also shouted “Ahh!” As if she remembered something.
Cecily opened the scroll and finally shouted louder.
“I guess I remembered! This scroll is the one she was told to open when she was 7 years old! A scroll with a 7th birthday present written on it! “I finally remembered it!”
It was like that.
I knew about what was in that jar.
Even though it was already 7 years ago.
From noble mtl dot com
“Has so much time already passed?”
It was something I was slowly forgetting about as my daily life washed over me like waves.
It was quite surprising that Cecily remembered that.
# # #
Cheolrrrr-.
Cecily returned to the secret base and opened the scroll.
Then she saw something quite strange written inside the scroll.
“This scroll originated in the ancient kingdom of Babylon and traveled around the world once a year, giving good luck to those who received it. Now it has been brought to you—?”
It was a strange statement.
Soon, Naru and Hina gathered their faces on the scroll spread out on the table and read the words.
“It is said that a secret ancient treasure is buried somewhere in Frisia. To find it, you must pass four mysterious tests.”
“But the first test is all that our investigation team found out. All you have to do is find the ‘chicken embracing the sun’ in a village in Provence near Frisia.”
This was the end of the written story.
It seemed like a strange secret document, not a map.
Because it seemed like a well-made secret document, Hinaru, Naru, and Cecily felt better.
“Ouch! “I guess there’s a great treasure hidden there!”
“Of the kingdom of Babylon… Maybe ancient gold…”
While Naru and Hina were having hopeful thoughts, Cecily looked at the scroll further.
There didn’t seem to be any particularly secret device or hidden text.
“It’s late today, so let’s go to Provence village when the sun rises tomorrow!”
With that feeling the next day.
The children dressed well and headed to the Provence village in the morning.
Hina knew the villages of Provence well.
That’s because Hina used to work under the name of ‘Miko of Gluttony’ in this Provence village.
“The chicken embracing the sun…”
Hina continued to mutter her hints with her mouth.
At that time, Naru appeared.
There was a large chicken in Naru’s hand
“Isn’t this the chicken that embraces the sun?”
─Beep boop.
Jii-.
“…”
Hina looked at the chicken in silence.
It just looked like an ordinary hen with white fur.
Soon Naru spoke.
“Let’s split the ship to see if it contains the sun!”
━Bang bap!
The chicken began to struggle wildly, as if it sensed death.
Naru let go of the chicken and laughed.
“It’s a lie!”
Food Duck-.
Chicken running away.
Soon Naru was wandering around the village of Provence and she caught another bird.
It was a goose with white fur.
The goose held by Naru was very calm. The Provence villagers smiled slightly as they saw Naru suddenly appear and catch the chickens and geese.
Because the sight of Naru holding her goose was very cute.
“Could this be the ‘chicken that embraces the sun’?”
Hina and Cecily shook their heads in response to Naru’s question.
“Maybe… “I don’t think so.”
The children were all lost in thought.
What on earth is the chicken embracing the sun?
“Guys.”
Among the villagers who were watching the distressed children, an old man with a white beard raised his cane and pointed to a building.
“If you have any questions, I would like to ask the ‘Miko of Gluttony.’ A shaman often appears in this village and solves difficult problems!”
The shaman of gluttony.
It was an interesting story.
The children followed the path their grandfather showed them and stopped in front of a house.
It was just an ordinary-looking house, but what was unique about it was that there was a sun and chicken pattern drawn on the front door.
It looked like a chicken standing in a big sun.
Naru shouted when he saw that.
“It looks like a chicken embracing the sun!”
“No, isn’t this the sun embracing a chicken?”
It was time for Cecily to have doubts.
Hina opened the door of her house with the feeling that she would remember something.
Giik-.
A door that opens easily.
Soon, I saw a woman sitting inside with a beautiful veil wrapped all over her body.
She was a person who gave off a very mysterious impression.
It literally looked like a fortune teller or a shaman.
Naru shouted, raising her hands.
“Salome!”
“… I am not Salome. A nameless, mysterious, yet beautiful wanderer. So, little girls, what business have you come to see this insignificant fortune teller?”
The woman asked softly and softly.
All the children were overwhelmed by the woman’s mysterious atmosphere as if they had entered a fairy tale, and Hina, who loves magical and mysterious things, was especially excited.
“Shaman! Wizard! Scroll!”
Zek-.
Hina held out the scroll of mysterious ancient treasure in her hand to the veiled shaman.
