209 Chapter 209

"Oh, who put that on your chest?"

"I did."

The girl blushed and replied. Rubica looked around, and all the children appeared to have a ribbon on their chest.

Of course, they were linen ribbons, which were very different from silk ribbons the nobles used, but they made them all look even livelier.

"You look like a princess."

Rubica complimented her while tasting the sesame flower. Its sweet scent and flavor filled her mouth. That made the knight guard who was escorting her break in a cold sweat, but she didn't mind. She had done that quite often as a child.

"Father Gregory promised us to buy silk ribbons later if we behave."

Her compliment delighted the child and she went on talking even without being asked.

"Wouldn't silk ribbons be expensive?"

"He said we will be able to buy enough of it to make ribbons if we work hard. Then I would really look like a princess."
