nvitation immediately.”

 

“Then, Father, what about this donation request from the church?”

 

“Hm? Oh, this is the one that I sent a hundred gold coins to but Joshua told me to make it one-tenth, right.  Anyway, the request is coming next month and the month after that, so I can’t reduce the next month’s amount ……… Is a hundred gold coins every month a bad thing, perhaps?

“Father, please don’t decide by yourself the next time this happens, okay?”

 

George seriously begged his father.

The Stuart family could finally eat full meals every day.

What they did not touch would not hurt them[1].
