Dear Broom Knight

Chesca was always a very efficient girl.

But she still retained much of the traditional knightly family atmosphere of this world. Even though she was so capable, when she encountered problems, she would first seek help from someone she considered stronger than herself to confirm her decisions.

Even though Lowry constantly pushed her to make her own decisions, Chesca would still turn to Lady Yagris for help when she felt lost and helpless.

Even though she had such good talent and such a resolute character…

In this world where the eldest son and eldest daughter have special status, even the most outstanding children still have the marks of being bound by worldly concepts deep in their bones.

Lowry always sneered at those so-called traditions.

Indeed, in many cases, it is the eldest who can stand up and shoulder the burden of the family.

In the army, in the government, those who are capable and know their limits, or rather, those who can withstand pressure and charge ahead themselves, are either the eldest son and daughter or the only child.

Whether it's the second son or the youngest son, there are very few who can withstand the pressure and gradually rise to high positions.

Even if they are favored, they don't seem to be as capable of handling things.

Even many younger sons with inheritance rights seem weaker than the eldest daughters who are not valued.

However, can they be blamed for this?

Lowry wouldn't compare himself to others just because he was also a younger son.

In general families, whether they are commoners, knights, or even nobles, they will give the best and most assets to the eldest son.

And the eldest daughter, even if she has suffered a lot because she is not an only child, as long as she breaks through the fog in her heart, her willpower will inevitably be stronger than ordinary people because she has to take care of her younger siblings from a young age.

After all, no one would ever say to the eldest daughter, 'Your older brother and sister are here, you don't need to think too much, just focus on your cultivation.'

Generally speaking, the eldest daughter will also be required to shoulder the burden of the family.

People who understand responsibility from a young age will be much more measured in their actions.

And children who only need to look after their own interests and don't need to look far ahead will naturally become more selfish.

And this world cannot be like Lowry's world, where people are given opportunities to try and correct their mistakes.

After all, the army doesn't support idlers… The combat style of a knight squad is very unforgiving. After all, no one can accept a teammate who would leave their back exposed.

Similar things, as long as they happen once, you can be directly OUT.

And the so-called government certainly doesn't support idlers without money or power.

But those who have money and power are kept in corners, seemingly leisurely and unrestrained… However, who would look up to them?

Whenever they are mentioned, it's always, 'So-and-so's youngest son is here to be taken care of.'

After living like this for a long time, many children really feel that they, who are not the eldest son or daughter, are naturally the ones who are not capable enough.

Even if they have good talent and good strength, they will still feel that an auxiliary deputy job is their ceiling.

Even if they do most of the work themselves, they still feel that the few orders from the superior, which are not even requests, are the most important.

Therefore, when many lords are looking for subordinates, they will try to avoid letting such children take charge, but they will arrange many such children as assistants for themselves.

This is also the reason why many small nobles who have branched out still act according to the will of the family, and even don't care about the interference of their brothers who inherited the greatest benefits in their own territory affairs.

They feel from the bottom of their hearts that they cannot make the most reasonable decision.

It can be said that it's all bullsh*t.

Fortunately, because Lowry was cultivated from a young age as the future lord of the barony, Lady Yagris taught him how to handle various affairs.

Even if Count Montesby didn't do personnel affairs, he wouldn't dare to say directly in front of Lowry, 'You don't need to worry too much, just be a good knight, your elder brother can solve the rest.'

Even if Lowry wouldn't listen to such bullsh*t, it doesn't mean that he wouldn't explode after hearing it.

Especially the young him who was still half-awake and valued his previous life very much.

Um… Lowry himself couldn't imagine whether he would explode directly after hearing such words.

After all, in his mind at that time, the so-called elder brother was still the former vested interest.

It's nothing to fall out with Count Montesby, but it wouldn't be good if his identity was exposed because of this.

So, Lowry is still quite grateful… At least in Lady Yagris's mind, he is still her child.

Stories of reincarnation with memories exist in any world with gods.

Lady Yagris wouldn't not accept such an existence.

But how could she still think that this child is her flesh and blood?

Anyway, they didn't say anything, so Lowry did as he thought.

But after two or three years, he understood.

Valera and Charles clearly had enough ability to control the overall situation.

After Lowry gave them enough autonomy, they really managed Qingfeng Valley very well.

They could also report to Lowry in detail, and they didn't need to use Lowry's name to suppress their subordinates at all.

But Chesca couldn't. When she encountered major events, her first reaction was to go directly to Lowry.

It's not that she shouldn't look for him.

But if it were Valera, her first reaction would definitely be to control the situation first, and then ask Lowry for a solution… and she would also offer her own suggestions. After receiving a response, she wouldn't hesitate.

Even if the response wasn't that detailed, or if it conflicted with her original plan, she could immediately find a new way to solve it.

However, Chesca would come directly to Lowry without caring about anything.

It's just that after Lowry's repeated orders over the years, it's gotten a little better.

She hasn't been running to Lowry 'thump, thump, thump, thump' for a long time, and she understands what matters should be kept secret first, and what matters should be suppressed by the Knights first.

But Lowry really didn't expect that Chesca could now so easily say that she wanted to build an assistant team around herself.

She has the concept that 'I am the one who can make the decisions'.

Lowry rested his arm on the table, gently propped his chin with the back of his hand, and chuckled: "If it makes you happy, then do it."

Chesca's hand didn't stop, but on her lowered face, her smile was as bright as the sun, revealing a gentle light.

Valera looked quietly at the visitor in front of her, with an incredulous expression: "Milian, what are you talking about?"

Sir Milian, who has always been determined, and has been able to maintain a calm state even after being rejected countless times by Valera, showed an awkward smile to the girl he loved: "Valera, I, I'm sorry.

But, I didn't expect that… such a bizarre thing would bring trouble to you."

"I still don't understand what you mean, Milian." Valera thought for a long time but still couldn't understand what that guy's words meant.

What do you mean Rosalind feels that she is ungrateful because Milian has been pursuing her, Valera, but has never received a response?

So, she might come to make trouble for her after the engagement ends?

Valera looked up and thought for a long time but couldn't understand what this had to do with that princess.

Not to mention that she has never given Milian any hope, and has directly rejected him from the beginning… Even if she is taking advantage and acting coy, as long as Milian himself has no opinion, what qualifications does an outsider have to complain there?

Isn't the pursuit method in the aristocratic system originally like this?

During the pursuit phase, a noble lady can accept the kindness of countless men, as well as small gifts that only represent affection: such as bouquets and desserts, or some interesting but inexpensive little things, basically worth between 2 and 3 silver coins.

Of course, the gentlemen will definitely send expensive gifts… but these will be directly rejected.

When she chooses one of the suitors, she only needs to accept all the gifts sent by the other party.

Otherwise, should the noble lady summon all the suitors to her side and reject them one by one?

That would be too rude.

Not accepting valuable gifts means that you don't plan to have any romantic future with you, let alone enter into an engagement.

Although there may be separations for various reasons after a romantic date.

But a noble lady can have at most three such opportunities… This is almost a little better than an engagement being finalized but someone suddenly reneging.

If you still do this after three times, it is almost impossible to get married again.

Those who find this lady again will basically become a playboy who only wants a moment of pleasure, and a gigolo who wants to get something from her.

Lady Yagris was originally planning to take this route.

Unfortunately, before she could start, she had to unfortunately take the most traditional path of a noble lady, arranged marriage.

Although nobles will have marriage alliances, only those collateral ladies who have been chosen as 'marriage tools' since childhood will have no choice.

Proper noble ladies can still choose the one they like the most among several marriage partners.

They can only say that there are few choices, but it's not that there are no choices.

Moreover, in order to preserve the face of these girls, even if they are marriage partners, they will go through the pursuit process.

But bouquets and those small gifts are social etiquette. Even if they don't like a certain man, they can only let their personal maid handle them, and cannot directly discard them.

Only when two families are openly hostile, or when a certain man is too infamous, and it is a disgrace for the girls to be associated with him, will these social gifts be returned.

But it is conceivable that this will inevitably lead to enmity.

Even the worst person doesn't accept the result of someone pointing their finger at them and saying they are bad.
