Chapter 978
Choosing colors and additional orders
“Hmm, hmm. So you will buy five for now. Thank you. Uh, as for stock… Sebastian, help me with this.”
“You are very rough, Isabelle. I am a guest…”
“If you are just going to stand there, you might as well come and help me. Besides, aren’t you going to buy one too?”
“Very well…”
Ms. Isabelle stood up and started to take the lights out of a large box.
It seemed like even Sebastian could not go against Ms. Isabelle.
Or perhaps they were very good friends.
And so he helped her, and they took out the various color lights and placed them on the table so that we could choose.
“Mr. Takumi. Which color did you pick?”
“I…chose blue.”
“Sister, I chose pink.”
“I got the white one!”
Liza chose the white one without hesitation, as it was the color that she was familiar with.
“Indeed… I am not sure which one I want.”
Claire thought as she touched her cheek.
There were ten different kinds, so it was no wonder that it was difficult to decide on just one. They were all very eye-catching.
“…Mr. Takumi, what do you think?”
“Uh…perhaps yellow would suit you?”
I was not confident in my own taste level, but if I had to choose one for her, then it would be the yellow one.
After all, the first thing I noticed when looking at her was her pretty hair.
“Yellow?”
“Yes. It looks like your hair. Ah, but since it is something you are going to look at as decoration, perhaps it should be something else.”
“…Uh, no! Since you gave it some thought, I will choose it.”
After looking confused for a second, she blushed and shook her head.
I could not help but feel happy that she liked my choice.
“So, as for Leo…”
“Papa. Can I choose?”
“Ah, sure. I’m sure Leo will like anything you choose.”
Aside from that, I decided I wanted to buy more, and so I asked Ms. Isabelle if I could get around fifty of the lights.
“Fi-fity!? Well, I could prepare them if you want… But do you really need so many of them?”
“Well, I thought that I could give them to the others. Also, I think they should be in green… Yes, fifty green lights please.”
I thought that I could pass them out to the field who would be hired to work in the herb fields.
As there were not many forms of entertainment to be expected in the village, any small thing they could enjoy might matter. Also, it was small, so it wouldn’t take up much space.
“Hah, very well. But it will take a few days to prepare.”
“Yes. It’s no rush, so I don’t mind. Thank you.”
After that, I explained my plan to the curious Sebastian.
Liza happily inspected the various lights, and ended up choosing a light blue color.
Apparently, it was because it was between my blue and her white one.
Once all of that business was done, we left the store and went outside.
As we would be buying kitchen related things, we would return at a later date with Ms. Helena and a few of the other cooks.
Also, the butler that I would hire.
“Thank you for waiting patiently, Leo.”
“Wuff. Sniff… Wuff?”
I showed Leo the tiny light, and she sniffed it with a questioning look.
“It looks like mine! You turn it on like this!”
“Wuff. Wuff!”
“Haha. Leo likes it.”
Leo nodded and barked happily as she saw that Liza had a similar one.
I was glad that she appreciated the gift.
