The Sage of Einar

Juni, who was hanging the blankets she had washed on a clothesline, looked askance at her children, who were playing.

 

\'To think that they can play and act like children, I\'m glad Ivar died now I have a real man and father for my children.

 

But I should remember that man and I better hurry, as I have to help prepare food with Elin. \'

 

After clearing her thoughts Juni stretched her hands and yelled to her children, "Children, be careful while playing. I will be making food.

 

Remember to come to eat when the call is made. "

 

The three children looked at their mother and nodded before playing with each other again. Juni just sighed and took her wicker basket before heading to the great room.

 

Upon entering the great hall Juni looked at the tranquility that there was because since the children moved to the orphanage the great hall was too changed.

 

When Juni entered the kitchen, she could see Elin, who was cleaning the scales of some fish.

 

"I hope I\'m not late, I was a little late due to the dirt on the blankets."

 

Elin just smiled and indicated with her hand that she would sit down "You shouldn\'t worry about that. The cleaning of the blankets has to be done daily because we always get dirty.

 

Also, unlike Helmi and Kassia, we don\'t feel comfortable letting the slaves clean up the proof of our love with Sven."

 

Juni blushed a little, causing Elin to laugh and will hand her a fish along with a knife.

 

"You should start removing the scales from the fish so we can finish making the food quickly since I don\'t know how hungry everyone will be."

 

Juni nodded and started to remove the scales from the fish "Hey Elin, I wanted to ask you if you already had your period?"

 

Elin, who was concentrating, was surprised by Juni\'s surprise question, so she raised her eyes as she stared at her.

 

"Now, what are you asking? I think I haven\'t had my period since last month, but maybe the same is happening to you too."

 

Juni nodded and lowered her head "I think if our period doesn\'t happen these days, it could only mean that we are pregnant."

 

Elin opened her eyes in surprise and caressed her stomach "It would make sense since Kassia and I are similar in age, while you are younger than me.

 

I guess the best we can do is talk to Kassia and Einar so they can check on us, and in case we are pregnant, I think we will have to have sex more carefully.

 

But I\'m surprised because I always wanted to get pregnant again. But since Einar was born, no matter how hard we tried, it was impossible.

 

This news, if true, I think could bring a new round of happiness to our family but we must not anticipate it since it would hurt me a lot to have the illusion of being a mother again when it was all a misunderstanding. "

 

Juni put down the knife and took Elin\'s hand "This must be a miracle from Einar, so we just have to have faith that everything will work out."

 

Elin sighed and showed a flirtatious look at Juni "No, because are you talking to me nice you\'re going to get rid of the ropes just so you know for a week I\'ve been learning from Helmi.

 

Today I\'m going to put all that knowledge to the test at night, of course being careful with your stomach, since we don\'t know if you\'re pregnant. "

 

Juni, who liked to be treated as a submissive woman, nodded and later felt a bit of moisture in her panties.

 

Seeing Juni\'s red face, Elin just shook her head, and using her hand, she lifted Juni\'s chin while bringing her face closer to hers.

 

"This is not the time or the place for you to be a bad woman.

 

Now let\'s continue making the food or I will have to bring Sven and you know well that at that moment you may not be able to get up. "

 

Juni gulped and gasped before he went back to cleaning the fish. Seeing Juni work, Elin also started cleaning the fish.

 

The two women then completely dedicated themselves to making the meal and only had a few occasional talks.

 

But it wasn\'t until they finished making the meal that Juni came out to inform everyone that it was time to eat. The first place she went was to the yard of the great hall.

 

When she came out, she looked at her children playing and could also see Daven and Helmi sleeping in the shade of a tree in the corner of the yard.

 

Juni, seeing the tranquility of the place, made her feel a feeling of satisfaction, so she took a deep breath and went to where her children were.

 

When the children arrived, they stopped and looked at their mother with smiles.

 

"Kids, it\'s time to eat. Go wash your hands and help Elin set the table."

 

The children nodded and began to run towards the great hall. Juni, seeing them running, only shook her head and walked until she reached Helmi.

 

Where once she was in front of her, she bent down and touched her shoulder "Helmi, wake up it\'s time to eat. We made a fish stew and it was quite delicious.

 

We also made some bread ... "

 

Helmi opened her eyes and looked at Juni who was looking at her with a smile. Turning her head she could see Daven who was sleeping softly next to her.

 

"I think I slept a lot, but the weather was so delicious I couldn\'t help myself, plus look at Daven I think he was enjoying it too."

 

Stretching out her hands Helmi started to move Daven "It\'s time to wake up, we have to go wash our hands so we can go to the kitchen, then I think we can have a little time to play some music."

 

Daven stretched out his small hands and hugged Helmi very lovingly "Yes mom, just let me keep hugging you."

 

Helmi with a smile began to stroke Daven\'s head and turned her head to look at Juni "I think we\'ll be in this place for a while, while you should go find Einar.

 

She should be in Felipa\'s doctor\'s office, along with Laura because she sprained her ankle. As for Sven, I have no idea.

 

Juni got up and yawned "He should be at Eskol\'s house, I think he said he wanted to drink with his friend so he won\'t eat with us.

 

Whether he will arrive at night or possibly, he will sleep at his house. Either way, I will leave you with Daven, as I have to go find Einar. "

 

After saying those words Juni began to walk and when she left the great hall, she could see the entire town enjoying their day off.

 

With the sole exception of the guards and construction workers, who had to work due to the importance of their work.

 

As she walked, she watched the children play carefree while some adults enjoyed the sun and the warm weather at the time.

 

Shee was also able to see a few food vendors, so when she walked near the stalls she could smell a scent of food that she liked and that Einar had made fashionable.

 

Following the delicious aroma, she looked at a young salesman who was preparing in a clay pot of sealskin, which was fried in animal fat.

 

Feeling a little hungry, she decided to buy some seal crackling, so she stopped at the food stand and looked at the woman who was serving.

 

"You can give me an order of seal crackling."

 

The girl nodded and took a small container made of paper which was shaped like a funnel and using metal tongs placed a piece of seal crackling inside.

 

Later, she put down the tweezers and using a small spoon; she spread salt, after which she handed the funnel with crackling to Juni, who the first thing he did was give it a bite.

 

While she was enjoying the delicious taste of crackling in her mouth, she took a silver coin and handed it to the woman, who, upon receiving it, only sighed and took a wooden box and began to take out copper coins.

 

After a while, the woman handed Juni 90 copper coins in a small leather bag. "Enjoy your meal and don\'t forget to recommend us."

 

Juni agreed and took her bag with copper coins, so she could continue on her way while eating, her seal crackling.

 

Upon arriving at Felipa\'s medical office, she opened the door and could see Laura talking to Felipa. The two seemed to be completely enjoying their talk.

 

So Juni knocked on the door to get their attention, as Felipa and Laura turned to see Juni, who had in her hand a wooden funnel that seemed to have some kind of food.

 

"Sorry to interrupt your talk, but it is time for lunch. We prepared a delicious fish stew..."

 

Laura and Felipa looked at Juni doubtfully because she had strange food in her hand, Juni just laughed and pointed at her pork rind "This is just a craving from the food stalls near the center of the village.

 

I couldn\'t contain my desire for the aroma, but if you\'re wondering, it\'s seal crackling. "

Laura and Felipa looked at each other and began to laugh at the way Juni spoke.
