373 The young wife is a viscount.




"Wait, wait, wait, wait!

 Just as we were about to finish our conversation, Diana's time, which had come to a complete stop, started to move.

I've got a lot of questions I want to ask my brother, but who is it anyway? It's a relative of His Excellency the Marquis.
"Julie, Viscount Delangere.
Oh, Julie. ....... I see.

 Marius answered quickly, and Diana looked satisfied.

Do you know her?
"Yes.

 I ask, Deanna nods, and Marius takes over.

Julie is the eldest daughter of the Delangere family, which has a long history with the Amur family. Julie is their eldest daughter. She's sixteen, I think.
She's young.
Younger than most of us.
That's true. Hey, how old is Marius?
He's 23.
That's young!

 I knew he was younger than me, but the way he was settling down, I thought he was a little older.
 No, in this world, 23 years old is probably a bit old, so is it more appropriate?
 The Marquis looks like he's in his late forties or older, and maybe he thinks of Marius as if he were his own child.

How old do you think he is?
I thought he was a little younger than me.
That's not so different, is it?
Well, ....... I don't think so.

 Somehow, I think they differ in increments of about three years until they are in their twenties. I'm 40 years old, so I guess it seems even more so.

But then again, a wife seven years younger than me. ......
"We're both noblemen, so the age difference doesn't matter much. How old was the difference between the Dewalt Viscountesses?
Twenty-five.

 When I heard that, I was aware of my own eyebrows rising. That's quite an age difference.

"That's right, that's right. I hadn't even heard the word "marriage" until then, and people were saying, "I wonder what that family is going to do?" But then, at 45, he says he's going to marry a 20-year-old, and he's marrying a baronet. It was suspected that he was forcing his hand."
Well, that's just it: ......

 I'm sure you can understand some of the suspicions of those around you, but I can't help but feel embarrassed for them.

After all, they met at the party and fell in love with each other, didn't they?

 Hearing this, Anne became a little enchanted.

"So romantic.
"Yes, it is. I've heard it's even written a play.

 I've heard that it's going to be a play." I wondered if Deanna and Anne's daughters were interested in this kind of romance. I'll buy them a book like that in the capital one of these days.

Julie has always been fond of books, and she used to come and read our books. Julie has always loved books, and she's always come to read our books.
That's right. If it hadn't been for Julie, I might have said no.

 Deanna said with a grin, but Marius readily admitted it.

"Oh. Oh, since when?
That's a secret. I'll just say it's been a long time.
"Oh. Tell me. Oh, was it when we were all out for a ride? Or at the Baron Schmieder's feast?
You'll have to worry about that when you get home.
Cheapskate!
He's an earl. As a count, he has to be stingy when it comes to his lands.

 Marius smiles broadly. Deanna is pouting, but this must have been the daily life of the Amour siblings. It must have been a very cheerful family.
 I really regret the incident, but I wouldn't be doing this if it hadn't happened, and I don't know what would have been the best thing to happen.

 I looked at the two of them and said.

"I hope my friend has a peaceful family.
That's what I can tell you, Eizo.
"Oh no. ......

 I think I understand what Marius is trying to say. I just don't feel like it right now, that's all.

 The next thing I know, not only Marius, but my whole family is staring at me.

"Well, now that we've done what we had to do, let's go home!

 I exaggeratedly said, and an extra-large sigh could be heard around me.
