Paddington looked at his sister, Leticia, with a more energetic face than ever before.

He was surprised that his sister, who was so nice and stupid that she couldn’t press a bug, suddenly rushed in, but it also seemed to have been a brief whim.

Leticia, who bowed her head and apologized in a crawling voice, seemed unusual.

“I’m, I’m so sorry… I’m sorry, Paddington. I guess I was crazy for a second.”

“Then let’s all forgive Leticia. Everyone makes mistakes. Leticia must be reflecting on herself a lot.”

With their gentle smiles, their parents seemed to be in a better mood than before.

Leticia bowed more and more. As if she were a high treasonous criminal.

“I… I’ve done something that can’t be put into words. Uh, I don’t know what to do. I really don’t have a clue.”

“Leticia!”

Their mother seemed really moved.

“Our good daughter. There’s no need to be so heartbroken. Just as you have done well in the past, please do well in the future too. It’s not hard, is it?”

“What I’ve done so far is just a given. I want to be more helpful.”

Paddington’s lips were twisted. Leticia always dug her own grave like that.

Of course, the deeper Leticia’s grave, the more advantageous it was for Paddington, so he didn’t point it out.

“If Leticia will work harder, we are welcome. I’ll help you as much as I can.”

“Are, are you sure?”

“Yes.”

Mother smiled kindly.

“Come on, go to bed now. Don’t you have to get up early tomorrow to pack lunch?”

But Leticia didn’t move.

“Well, I’m going to make some money…. I’d like to add to Paddington’s academy tuition.”

“Leticia, you’re young. You don’t have to think about money yet. It’s enough to help with the housework like this.”

“I heard that Jennifer also went to work as a maid recently. Even though she’s younger than me….”

Leticia rubbed her open eyes with her hands.

“I think back a lot in my room earlier. I was wondering if I was too immature… and I really want to be of help.”

Paddington had to try not to snort.

Leticia was always stupid, but this time he couldn’t help but laugh. You’re going to be a maid and contribute to my tuition?

Even so, I have heard conversations from my parents who are concerned about the recent increase in the field cultivation of severan.

In the meantime, they made a decent profit by selling the severan that Leticia was looking for.

However, due to the recent increase in the field cultivation of severan, the market price fell and the profit was barely half of what it used to be.

In the future, the price of severan was going to drop even more.

But Leticia made some unexpected defiance, and she said she would become a maid.

She is even willing to pay the tuition. 

Mother and father must be happy and want to dance. But all Paddington felt was a mocking blow.

‘A stupid thing.’

Paddington has always despised stupid people.

An idiot-like innocent sister was easy to use, but the fact that they were the only siblings sometimes felt shameful.

‘Haha, who would you blame for being like that?’

***

The next day.

Leticia Woods became the maid of the richest family in the town.

The employer paid a decent salary because he knew the reputation of Leticia, who did the share of two adults by herself.

The Woods rejoiced at the thought of the salary she would now bring back every month.

But in just a month, the dream came to nothing.

Leticia Woods, as soon as she got her first paycheck, disappeared without a trace.

[Chapter 2 : I don’t have a hard time leaving home]

“You’re 16 years old? It doesn’t look like that.”

Baron Jefferson’s maid, Sally Mort, looked at Leticia with a stern eye.

“Our family is originally short.”

Leticia responded immediately, but couldn’t calm her pounding heart.

Unlike Paddington, who was tall even though he studied at home, she was the smallest girl of her age in her hometown.

Sally wasn’t convinced at all, but she eventually handed over the recruitment papers.

“We’re not in a position to be picky. You know how to write your name, right? Write it here.”

Luckily, Leticia learned how to read, write and do simple arithmetic in a six-month classroom for mountain children.

“As written, if you hold out for less than three months, all your wages will be confiscated. If you run away, you won’t be able to set foot in this country again, so please know that.”

“All right.”

“Any other questions?”

“There isn’t.”

Sally smiled with satisfaction. Unlike other applicants, she liked Leticia, who did not protest.

She was tired of hearing complaints about whether this made sense, and she was tired of hearing an obvious reason to rip off the signed documents if they didn’t like it.

Of course, the fact that she is not an illiterate person who can’t read or write at all was also a very good factor.

At this rate, she could have overlooked the fact that Leticia was a few years younger than a solid age.

‘This new recruit is worth it.’

“Beth!”

Sally called out a maid named ‘Beth’.

Beth, who just appeared, looked exactly like Sally, so I wondered if she was a relative.

“Take this newbie with you.”

“Where should I put her?”

“Any empty seats.”

“Yes.”

Beth nodded and urged Leticia by pushing her back slightly.

“Let’s go. We’re in a hurry.”

Thump.

The door closed behind their backs, but Beth stood in the hallway and did not move. She looked at Leticia with an expressionless face.

“You lied about being two years older.”

“…..”

“It doesn’t matter. This is the only place in the capital that will accept a 14 year old child who looks like a 12 year old, so work hard.”

Beth was right.

The reason Leticia didn’t protest the terms Sally said was because she had no choice.

The first salary she received from a rich family was used to come up to the capital and wander around for a week looking for a job.

In the meantime, Leticia has applied to all the places looking for a maid.

But even if she wasn’t, the employers who didn’t like her small stature, shook their heads as soon as she said her real age.

Then, Leticia picked up the story from the maids who gathered at the market to buy food.

‘Three more people run away from Baron Jefferson’s house.’

‘Are there any people left?’

‘Cause, it’s a lot of money.’

‘What’s the point of giving a lot? The new Baron couple….’

‘Shh.’

Since then, they have turned to the topic of the weather, but Leticia has all the information she needs.

Leticia inquired about Baron Jefferson. Baron Jefferson was not treated as a workforce office that was easily accessible because it was a noble family.

However, due to the shortage of manpower recently, rumors have spread that all applicants without a letter of recommendation will be accepted.

All of them came out on their own feet in a month without receiving a penny.

Leticia tried to speak to Beth in the most confident voice possible.

“I’ll do my best.”

“If you’re still here in three months, I’ll believe you then.”

“I’ll make you believe it.”

Beth snorted and walked away. They passed through the proud but not carefully maintained Baron’s corridor.

“Cleaning, cooking. Pick one.”

“I like cooking.”

Leticia answered without a moment of hesitation.

I never wanted to work as a maid for the rest of my life. It may not be a problem to make a living,but it was not enough to make a lot of money.

Memories of the past life told Leticia one truth. Make money and everything will follow.

Leticia was going to work as a maid and save money, then open a small restaurant or cafe as an adult.

If I start out as a Baron’s kitchen maid who can learn to cook a variety of dishes, and then go on to become a chef, it couldn’t be any better than that.

Then, I heard Beth laughing.

“I’m sorry, but what should I do?”

She sounded like she wasn’t sorry at all. Leticia knew what was going to happen soon. Beth will never let Leticia go to the kitchen.

“You’re gonna do the cleaning.”

“Cleaning is good, too.”

Leticia swallowed her disappointment and smiled softly. If she stays here for a long time, she will have a chance to get to the place she wants.

Now, the top priority was to stay at the Baron’s mansion, which was paid three times the salary she received in her hometown.

“We’re supposed to give you clothes… You’re so small that I don’t know if we have clothes that fit you. I’ll give it to you after I search it up.”

“Thank you.”

“Yeah, well, hang in there.”

Beth opened the door and pushed Leticia’s back.

Just before she fell, she barely managed to balance, and a maid about a head taller than Leticia was staring at her.

“Hello!”

Leticia greet brightly.

“I’m Leticia Woods. I look forward to your kind cooperation.”

“Carrie Endor.”

Without a word of greeting, Carrie handed over the mop she was holding.

“Wipe it.”

It was then that Leticia realized that she had entered a drawing room that had not been used for a long time.

Dust was piled up in places that it was unbelievable that it was the Baron’s drawing room. The old stains were a bonus.

“You can take a rest after cleaning here.”

“Where is my room?”

“Our room is on the fourth floor. You can take a seat anywhere on the empty bed.”

Carrie picked up a spare rag and began to clean the high decoration and dressing tables. Naturally, the rest was up to Leticia.

An hour later.

Leticia approached Carrie, who was carefully cleaning the window.

“I wiped everything I could reach. Is there anything else I can do for you?”

“Already?”

Carrie looked carefully at the drawing room with her surprised eyes. She saw a shiny drawing room without a grain of dust. A pure exclamation came out of Carrie’s mouth.

“You’re good?”
