820 – Falling Like Snow – 4

Julia, my ninth child and sixth daughter.

Julia, the second child born to me and Mar.

‘I’ve been married for a few years now.’

Even if you count the time when you got married to Mar, it has been 5 years since you got married. However, in five years, there are nine children, and two children are in the arms of their mother. Since they are also scheduled to be born this year, they have an incredible feat of securing the minimum number of members for FC Crasius in their fifth year of marriage.

Thinking about this, I am proud and amazed at myself. If you look at each wife individually, it’s an ordinary number, but when you put it all together, the numbers go crazy.

‘What about the golden ball?’

Eventually, I became purely curious. When Golden Ball was newlywed, how many children were born in one year? How busy were the vassals and servants of the Duke of Oshiden preparing gifts and taking care of the children?

Even by simple calculation, it is twice as much as mine. This means that as many as six children a year were born every two months on average. At that level, coming up with a name would be a task.

“Pedi. Now go to your room and sleep.”

After paying his respects to the footsteps of his great predecessor, he comforted Pedi, who would not leave the cradle where Julia lay.

“I want to watch a little more.”

And Pedi was unusually stubborn and refused to listen to me.

Pedi is a fun place to play from morning to evening. This is a pedi that gives off stamina when the sun is up, so you can quickly fall asleep and recharge at night. Fedi gave up sleeping and did not leave Julia’s side

‘Is it because they’re half-brothers?’

Peddie already had seven younger siblings. A whopping eight if you include the prince. Julia is only Pedi’s ninth sibling.

Nevertheless, seeing this kind of interest and affection, it seems that there is an instinctive attraction towards her her half-brother her her, not her her half-brother her her. It’s like her attraction to her to her younger brother her to her, who is precious to her, but still comes from the same place.

‘Is it good?’

Iffy. Fedi is the eldest of our children and the commander who will succeed me and lead the Crasius family—and further lead the families of my younger siblings. It is a bit difficult to favor and cherish a specific person among her younger siblings.

However, when parents have multiple children, there are children who pay more attention to them. Even parents would be harsh to demand fair affection from a young Peddie. To be honest, I don’t have the sense to look after Pedi, who is the eldest among my children.

‘It’ll be okay.’

I looked at Pedi, who was staring at Julia, and burst into laughter.

Yeah, it’ll be okay. Peddie likes her younger half-sisters more, not that she hates her half-sisters. In the end, Fedini loves all her younger siblings, and in time, she will act as fair as possible for her younger siblings.

“Pediya.”

“Ugh?”

“Isn’t it good to have so many younger brothers?”

However, I was anxious to let things go like this, so I subtly extended Fedi’s affection to all of her younger siblings, not just Yulia.

So that the feelings I feel now can be left as feelings for everyone, not just for Yulia. Let Fedi know that she doesn’t like Julia because she’s her younger sibling, but because she’s her younger sibling.

“Wow!”

Peddie smiled wider than ever at my small wish.

“Yes. Our Pedi will be a good brother and a good older brother.”

“I want to be Jo-eun’s younger brother!”

It made me laugh again because it seemed like she had the crown princess in mind.

Peddie is already a good son and nephew, a good grandson and grandson, and a good brother and older brother. If her good brother is added to the mix, how busy will she have to be?

If I am a nobleman who is busy publicly, I think Peddie will be a nobleman who is busy privately. Unlike me, there are many entangled relationships. She has a lot of people to share her growing years with her.

“Ugh… “

“Oh my.”

While I was stroking Peddie’s head with a happy heart, Julia woke up because the sound of our conversation was annoying.

However, the best time to go back to sleep is when you have just woken up. Just as I was hurriedly trying to reach out my hand to comfort Julia,

“Hush.”

‘Huh?’

Peddie lifted up her tiptoes and patted Julia’s hand.

“My little brother, go to sleep.”

As if she was giving back what she had experienced. As if she was passing on the pats she received from her mothers to her younger sibling.

“uuuh… “

Her brother’s pat had an effect, as Julia’s frowned her returned to that of an angel.

Then she held Pedi’s hand tightly with her small hand. It’s as if she doesn’t want to miss the warm hand that comforts her.

‘Is it heaven?’

She looked at the scene blankly, as if she was possessed by something about her.

Even though she fell asleep again, Julia didn’t let go of Pedi’s hand. Pedi silently gave her hand to Julia without even complaining.

This dad is so touching that I feel like crying.

Those who have entered heaven do not leave heaven on their own feet. If you go out on your own, it won’t be heaven, but a pseudo-heaven or a heavenly appeal.

“…Knife?”

“Ah, Mar. Are you awake?”

Thanks to this, Julia doesn’t let go of Fedi’s hand. She watched Fedi, who was lying in the same bed as Julia, all night.

In any case, Fedi could crush Julia in her sleep. Because she might be unfamiliar with Julia sleeping with someone else.

“I’m sorry. Is it because of me that you couldn’t sleep?”

However, although it was heaven for me, it was not for Mar. How surprising would it be if the first thing she saw when she woke up was her husband standing looking down at her children?

From her perspective, she’s probably worried that Julia cried a lot while she was sleeping and that I gave up sleeping to comfort her.

“Carl, go to bed right now─”

“Shh.”

After giving a small signal to Mar, who was hurriedly walking towards her, she silently pointed her finger at her children.

“Oh my.”

And Mar, who followed my finger and turned his head quickly became calm.

“I didn’t even know I stayed up all night watching this.”

“I see. If it were me, I think I would have kept watching.”

Marr let out a chuckle and carefully stretched out her hand and touched Peddie and Julia’s cheeks.

One son and one daughter. Both are precious children whom Mar gave birth to after carrying her for ten months.

“I’ve often seen Peddie playing and sleeping with her younger siblings, but seeing this scene gave me a new feeling. It’s something… A feeling that’s hard to put into words.”

Since she seemed to have a general understanding, she hugged Marr’s waist.

Her wives, including Mar, regard all of the other wives ‘children as their own. As her husband and head of the family, I am grateful and happy.

However, it is not children who treat them like children, but two real children lying side by side. No one was there to witness such happiness in our mansion except Trixie, the triplets’ mother. Now Marr has enjoyed that happiness for the second time.

“Still, you’re not satisfied with two, right? Since two black-haired children were born, now a red-haired child who looks like Barenti should be born as well.”

Mar’s smile she grew even brighter when she told him her joke.

“What if the third child also has black hair?”

“I’m three times happier.”

It’s our child. What could her her hair her color her her mean her? All she needs to do is be born healthy.

However, she gave birth to Peddie, who had black hair and dark eyes, and then Julia, who had black hair and green eyes. According to the pattern, the next one is Red Eyes and Green Eyes. If a child who looks exactly like Mar is born, her father-in-law will be very excited.

“It’s time to go!”

Just as I was trying to imagine what it would be like if my red-haired, green-eyed daughter, Mini Mar, was born, I heard a loud and familiar cry from beyond.

“Hehe, you seem more energetic than usual. I guess you heard that Julia was born.”

“That’s right. “I need to be a little more careful about this today.”

As the sound of running around got closer, Mar and I’s smiles grew deeper.

Still, perhaps because the emperor was her husband as well as her father her her, Mar gave her time to get herself together and sent her daughter to the throne. This guy has at least a faint conscience.

‘I don’t wake up even after hearing that.’

And Julia did not wake up even when she heard the loud cries and charges of her daughter-in-law. It’s surprising considering that he reacted to the sound of a conversation between me and Pedi yesterday.

I think maybe I felt relieved because my brother was holding my hand and we were sleeping together.

“Pedi. “My sister is here.”

“Nu… Me?”

“Yes, sister.”

However, Pedi needs to wake up slowly. When she sees Fedi lying down with Julia, her eyes her light up and she says she wants to lie down with him too.

***

I am a good dog!

Because my mom said that! If you live well, you will get a gift! Then I bought a really, really cool dog!

‘Two younger brothers!’

Those are my younger brother and Pedi’s younger brother! Two like this!

“It’s time!”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“Two touches!?”

“You have to be careful when touching it. My little brother won’t like it if he wakes up while he’s sleeping, right?”

“Ugh! I know! Don’t worry!”

It’s time and time again! They say I’m very strict with my younger brother, but you don’t even know that! He said he came over to play with Kaerollain earlier!

“That’s right, it’s time! What’s this guy’s name?”

“This is Julia.”

“Yuria?”

“It’s Yul, not Yu. Yuul, Lia.”

“Yul… Lia!”

Joe! Yulia! My sister Yulia! Because I remembered!

“Julia. Hello.”

Julia Hantae, who was sleeping, spoke softly. Julia, you’re sleeping. If you wake up, I’ll cover you up. You have to speak softly when you sleep.

“W-Uh?”

“Huh?”

Modern sesame seeds!

Strange! They say I’m a b*stard and they don’t even touch me!?

“Oh my. Your Highness, you should have been careful.”

“Did I just wake up…?”

They said they didn’t do it on purpose… They said they touched it carefully so as not to wake them up…

“Actually, it was time to wake up. Julia fell asleep early last night.”

“What! It’s a bad time!”

Because I didn’t get it right! I’m going to be surprised!

“Julia. Go to bed early and get up early. Sleep during the day and noon.”

“Grain?”

Pedi ends up beating Julia again.

If you sleep during lunch, you can have a lot of fun! Julia Ball and Son! I’m going to touch you a lot!

“Then Julia! Let’s play with your sister!”

“Eye patch.”

“Huh?”

He said he didn’t wear it.

“Julia. If you still touch her, you must protect her!”

“Ji, Jin-chan, do you have an eye patch?”

“Not even my older sister!”

Hmm…

***

The Crown Princess and Fedi stood side by side and looked at Julia lying in the cradle.

Julia is blinking blankly because she is still out of focus. Fedi quietly watches Yulia. Even the crown princess fidgeting next to her.

“Ha, just this once…”

“Eye patch.”

Seeing the determined Pedi and the sullen Crown Princess, it was hard to hold back her laughter.

When her children went to meet her princess, the princess controlled our children, and here, Pedi is controlling her princess. Even among children, each person’s territory is respected.

‘Is it an implicit line?’

The imperial palace is her princess’s home, and the princess is her princess’s younger sister, so she follows the words of her princess.

On the other hand, this is Fedi’s house her her, and Julia is Fedi’s younger sister, so she follows what Fedi says.

It’s a perfect and neat rule for young children to establish. Is this a rule that has been established instinctively since we have been playing with so many people?
