Su Luxi (15)
A month later. In the grand mansion of the newly promoted ducal family...
It was on the afternoon of the third week. The maids at the laundry yard gossipped with each other while doing their parts of the labor.
It started when the youngest of them, a freckled girl with twin braided hair asked one of her co-workers. "Hey, Eldest Sister. I've been meaning to ask this since ages ago, but why did the young master suddenly develop an interest in learning the various folklores of the world?"
The question sparked a discussion centered on the heir. Sweet voices coming from young teenage girls floated about in that part of the residence, accompanying the sounds of water and the wringing of fabrics.
The first reply came from the oldest female servant there, a slightly chubby girl. "To be honest, Sister Sue, I have no idea. But if I were to guess, maybe he's doing that to find clues on how to escape from his disease?"
