566 – Our Two Hawthorn Trees – 3

Although it was still early in the morning, the tulip garden was filling up with guests.

‘There is no need for this much.’

As I watched the scene, I just fiddled with my dress. When Rize had a small wedding at the estate, she felt like only people who sincerely congratulated her had come to admire the small wedding.

However, unlike the baron Nayard family, it is difficult for the count Yorun family to hold a small wedding. Rize’s father did not have much interest in social activities, so he had connections with only a few nobles, but my father had to make connections with many nobles because of his work.

In order to reduce the size of the wedding with such a large number of people, the guests must be selected and graded separately, but if you do that for no reason, people will say that the father became arrogant over a good son-in- law. Since you’re going to hear all the talk behind your back, it’s right to just have a big wedding.

‘That person came too.’

As I was looking around the wedding hall, I found someone who caught my eye even from afar.

A sturdy man who is at least a head taller than the others, and a sleek head that seems to not allow any foreign substances to enter.

‘Did you say you are now the head of the executive branch?’

Three years ago, the leader of the action who suddenly inspected our family and the person who apologized with the intention of bowing to his father his. A person who was hateful and scary at first, but things ended well and you can meet them normally.

‘…Wouldn’t it be better to say hello first?’

After looking at the back of the executive director for a moment, he slowly got up from his seat.

Officially, the Executive Director apologized to the Yorun family, and we also forgave the Executive Director. However, even though it is officially concluded, personal feelings do not completely disappear.

Of course I’m fine. While staying with my brother, I learned that the inspection at the time was an innocent mistake, and my father even jokingly laughed, saying that the compensation for the erroneous inspection made his work easier.

‘It’s different from a subordinate’s point of view.’

But that person is my brother’s subordinate. In that person’s shoes, I am the boss’s wife. No matter how finished the day is, I can’t help but be anxious that sparks will fly again.

“Executive Director.”

The executive director, who had just finished greeting the other guests, looked back with a calm face and then quickly bowed.

“Boo, ma’am! Long time no see!”

“I see. Has it been exactly half a year since Baron Atini?”

“It would have been that much!”

I was completely embarrassed by the loud answer, as if the youngest servant was treating a nobleman. Wouldn’t it have been better not to talk to me?

No, no. If you don’t talk to them, they may misunderstand that you are ignoring them out of spite.

“I’m sure you’re busy with your work as manager, but thank you for giving me your precious time.”

That’s why I bowed towards the head of the executive branch, who was still bowing.

“Although we had an unusual first meeting, we have now developed a relationship that cannot be considered strangers, right? Please take good care of my brother in the future as well.”

“That is too much to say! On the contrary, I owe you a lot to the Minister!”

Those words made me smile softly.

“Considering how hard I really suffered because of them, even if I receive three times my annual salary, it’s not enough.”

My brother, who sometimes talked about his time as head of the inspection department, said that every time he mentioned the managers.

I can’t believe that one of the people who shook my brother’s spirit is humble in front of me. If my brother sees it, won’t he yell at me to be nice to him?

“Now that I think about it, I heard that the manager is also married.”

“Yes, I have a wife who is more than worthy of me!”

“I think marriage is a declaration that you will live a completely different life than before. Is that the same for you, too?”

“Of course!”

It was a random remark, but the executive director’s response was immediate.

“So, I will pretend that the incident between our family and the executive director never happened anymore.”

“Yes?”

And in the following words, the executive director, who was full of spirit, sounded blank.

“Don’t get me wrong. I already have no feelings for the manager. It would have been different if someone had been hurt, but that’s a possibility that hasn’t happened, right?”

I spoke to the executive director with the gentlest smile possible.

“I don’t want people I’ll see often in the future to be concerned about what happened in the past. If you really care, please help my brother as much as I feel sorry for our family.”

“…”

The executive director could not open his mouth for a while.

You’re probably embarrassed to suddenly hear forgiveness and to hear such a blunt statement from a nobleman.

Still, there is no need to repeat that the victim is okay now and that he or she forgives you. It’s good to say things like this accurately, even for each other’s sake. Only then will the burden in the offender’s heart disappear.

“I will keep that in mind.”

Like an executive director who barely lifted his waist.

The wedding has begun.

“What happened with the executive director?”

“Yes?”

And my brother, who was standing side by side in front of the host, opened his mouth in a low voice.

“He said he suddenly got a wife who was too much for me.”

My brother frowned as if he was displeased and calmly added a word.

“If you only know that now, how clueless you are.”

“Pfft.”

I could barely suppress the laughter that was about to burst out. You can’t be a bride who laughs more than just smiles during the wedding ceremony.

“Huh…”

The host in front of us suddenly found himself holding back laughter as well.

If you burst out laughing here, the guests who couldn’t hear what your brother said will think it’s strange, and the host will end up looking like a strange person. At first, the Cardinal of the Archdiocese of Wolken, who was in the Holy See, came all the way to the County of Planvell and took on the role of moderator, but I think it was too much of an ordeal rather than a reward.

“The couple-to-be’s relationship is so beautiful that even this old man can see that their future will be filled with the Lord’s blessings.”

Fortunately, the cardinal was able to quickly control his emotions and opened his mouth with a warm smile.

“And it is an honor to be able to celebrate the marriage of a couple who has been blessed by the Lord.”

I also smiled at the cardinal’s words.

The words “God’s blessing” Cannot be more meaningful to me. It is truly a blessing from the Lord that I, who had no interest in the opposite sex before entering the academy, met my brother and got married.

‘He was a scary person at first.’

When I gently held my brother’s hand, he also smiled at me.

I was so scared of such a warm and kind person. There was a good reason for that, but thinking about it now, it was a bit funny.

‘Thanks to the sea, I was able to see my brother as he really is.’

Yes, thanks to the sea. To me, the sea is a place where shameful memories reside, but at the same time, it is also a place where unforgettable memories rest.

There, his life was saved by his brother, he received consideration from his brother, and he opened his heart to him. To preserve those memories forever, you decided to give your child the name of the sea.

I don’t know if I have a child yet or not, but it doesn’t matter. No matter when my child comes to me, I will definitely name him Bada.

‘Will our ocean return slowly like its mother?’

Just as it slowly dawned on me after seeing my brother’s true self. Like falling in love, hovering around my brother.

As if I only knew the good things about my brother, not his hard sides, and I longed for him to be a more handsome man than any other person I’ve ever met.

‘No.’

If you look like me, it may come to you faster than anyone else. The process of falling in love with my brother progressed slowly in daily life, but I actually confessed suddenly.

It is expected. In what way does our ocean resemble its mother

?

Oh, aren’t I going to have twins too? Then, you have to prepare other names in advance.

‘Taemyeong…’

It’s a fun worry to even imagine.

A smile never left Lynn’s face throughout her wedding. Her face would turn red and then sink as she thought about it, but it was better than being dark.

‘It was worth it.’

As expected, the choice to rent the entire beach was not wrong. Since she has been married three times, she has become a specialist who is well versed in women’s hearts.

Of course, if it weren’t for Rize’s advice her her, she wouldn’t have known whether Rin had any troubles or not, but it’s also her ability to marry a woman who can give her advice her her her her. She decided to just think like that.

“Um… Oppa?”

“Yes.”

“I can walk on my own feet…”

And as soon as her wedding was over, she was held by me like a princess, and Rin muttered with her new red face.

I wondered what was so big about this level of skinship between a couple, but I thought it was cute that they were shy, so I ignored it.

“Well, where are we going anyway? There’s nothing at the top.”

As I just laughed, Lin quickly changed the subject.

Saying goodbye to the guests and heading to the top of the Tulip Garden. From Lin’s perspective, she can’t help but think of it as a new groom’s eccentricity.

“There wasn’t one. So it was perfect for preparing a gift.”

“Yes?”

But there is no such thing as action without reason. If today is the happiest day of Rin’s life, she can’t act in vain.

“…Wow.”

When we reached the summit, which was somewhat away from her wedding venue, Rin opened her mouth in a daze.

A huge hawthorn tree proudly perched at the top, colorful tulips surrounding it, and a small log building.

“Isn’t it pretty?”

At those words, Lin looked at the hawthorn tree with dreamy eyes. It was the first gift Lynn gave me, and in a way, it was the beginning of our relationship. It’s worth being happy that the symbolic tree was planted at the top of the wedding hall.

“I decorated it with special care. “I plan on staying here for about a week at least.”

“…Yes?”

Only then did Rin seem to come to her senses and she hurriedly looked up at me.

“Huh, brother? We…Were already at the sea last time…”

“It was only one day.”

“Well, I still did it—”

“Give up the steak just because you ate the salad?”

With a firm answer, he walked majestically towards the log building. Rin, who struggled for a moment, quickly complied and buried her face in my chest.

There may be two when you go in, but there will be three when you come out.

***

Today was the fourth wedding day of the honorary priest.

Of course, no blessings were given this time either. I just said a simple congratulations and ended.

‘Quiet is good, yes.’

I felt like crying, but I tried my best to console myself. It’s strange that Enen and Constantina made a lot of noise at a human wedding, but it’s normal to celebrate normally like me. The honorary priest also preferred quiet.

So, that was the moment when I decided to only send reasonable congratulations for the remaining two weddings.

‘…Huh?’

Suddenly, a large amount of divinity came in.

‘What is it?’

What on earth is going on? Isn’t it the divinity that comes through the World Tree?

‘Is it a dream?’

If it’s a dream, I hope I don’t wake up for a while. It’s been so long since I felt this fulfilled.
