Reiner sighed.
It’s better to take care of your own child yourself, after all, everyone seems to be very busy.
The only person who is not busy is now angry.
At this moment, Reiner suddenly felt someone approaching from behind.
When I turned around, I saw that it was Peggy who was sneaking around.
(I’ve been discovered. If only I could walk silently like Nora. Wait! That’s not right…)
"You're back so soon? Why didn't you let Lalith tell me in advance?"
Peggy didn't answer, her attention was all focused on Flori in her arms.
She inched closer, then closed her eyes and sniffed.
"Hmm! Did Mrs. Junice give birth?"
Reiner grabbed her two fox ears and said, "What do you mean by giving birth? That little kid."
After that, he leaned in and took a sniff.
Paige smells like a fox.
Her face turned red because of this action.
"Well... the child is watching."
Reiner looked down and found that Flory was indeed staring at the two of them with her big round eyes.
"Just smell it."
Peggy bent down and stared at Flory, then sighed, "Her eyes and hair are the same color as her owner. She will definitely be a beautiful girl when she grows up."
"Would you like a hug?"
Paige blinked. "Okay?"
"Try it. Lalith cries when I hold her. The elf can hold her, but she cries when I leave her. See how you do."
Peggy carefully took the child, and Florie looked at her while sucking her fingers.
Didn't cry.
Reiner took a few steps upstairs and found that she still wasn't crying.
How strange!
Reiner looked at Peggy's plump breasts and probably found the answer.
If it were Fiona, the child would definitely be well behaved as long as he wasn't scared by the light green skin.
"What's wrong, En, what are you trying?"
"Nothing. If you have nothing to do later, please help me take care of the child. Thank you."
Peggy nodded: "It's okay, I will treat her as my own child."
Reiner ruffled her hair and began to talk about business: "By the way, how is the trade route in Melodna?"
"King Diast has acknowledged the existence of our kingdom. The trade routes to Merode have been connected, and grain is on its way from the south."
"So you didn't come back with them."
Peggy nodded vigorously: "Well, I asked Laelissa to take me back first. Many subhumans have walked this old road in the forest, so it will be fine.
By the way, a knight named Dimas heard about En's situation and helped us a lot."
Reiner lost himself in memories: "Dimas... He was an upright knight."
It's been a long time since I last saw him.
"By the way, Master, we can also open up a trade route with the slave traders in Melodna, and have them send the demi-humans directly to our country. In exchange for their stability, their price can be much lower, probably only about one-third of the original price.
How about it? "
Paige blinked, seeking Reiner's opinion.
"It's not impossible. In the early days of our nation, we were in urgent need of population. I'm bold enough to allocate funds to you, but we must be careful. We must do our best to handle our relations with the lords of other countries. Do you understand?"
Paige nodded heavily.
She looked at Flori in her arms, and suddenly stood on tiptoe and whispered in Reiner's ear.
"Well...I want to ask you for a baby."
