I Reincarnated as a White Pig Noble's Daughter from a Shoujo Manga (On Hold)

The past of White Pig Opposer Part 2

I have no parents in this life. The family head, Earl Hakusu, my father, eloped with the wife of another man. Anything after that was a mystery. Feeling insulted, mother cut all ties with the Earl's family, returned home, and remarried with another noble. This was possible as her family stood higher than the Earl's.

This shoujo manga's world places more importance in practicality than love when dealing with marriages. But with changes in each era, marrying for love is currently increasing. Although similar to how Europe was like in the past, not everything was the same. It is the fantasy world in a shoujo manga after all, a belief set on our heroine, Meriru, would definitely marry for love in the end.

The one who's currently managing the Hakusu family is my grandfather; Sarusu Hakusu. Grandmother has already passed away.

Being the nice guy he is, grandfather is really unreliable at times, often being swindled, getting tripped over other people's debts, and pushed to buy extravagant goods. As a person, he's a very nice, awesome, grandfather, but as the head, he is very unsuitable. We become challenged financially thanks to him.

This is the ruler of a remote region we're talking about, a place full of mountains and seas; the complete definition of a countryside with no specialty goods. We were previously well-known for good horses, but their importance is lowering due to the lack of any big wars proceeding. The place is, more or less a port, but the surrounding's so full of rocks, that there's no pretty views available. Money aren't gonna increase if no work is done on it either.

My engagement, although annulled, was, of course, political. Their side was to tranquilize their influence as a ruler, ours was to get financial support. By the way, is was planned for my cousin to take over the Hakusu household so, there's no concerns for a heir. The compensation for this annulment was quiet an amount. It would've been better for Hakusu's household if I married into their place, but it can't e helped if their side rejected. I can imagine the reason for annulment, the other side's son probably saw Britany's figure and was really against it. We haven't met in person but it is wide-spread that Britany's fat and having a bad personality.

Receiving the news via grandfather, I stared at my reflection in a big mirror. Britany's figure is... bad enough to make even me want to annul any engagement if I were the guy. We're talking weighing over 80 kilos at the age of twelve, face reaching out to the neck, heavy body odour, the perfect role for making other people's eyes sore. Being constantly doted by grandfather on top of that created a self-orientated personality that can't see the world. Hobbies are having meals and afternoon tea, splurging on new dresses and bullying servants... a real problem child.

Living like that as a daily routine before having remembered everything brought me to deep depression. But, this will not help, nothing is going to become better, it's what already happened, and therefore, too late...

Let's go on a diet and withdraw ourselves from execution first, then recover relationship with servants, cultivate myself as a fine lady of the Earl's family. I need to help grandfather with managing the place too. What difficult and distant looking plans they are...

I thought of following the:

Get shocked from engagement annulment → Trip to search for one's self→ Open up and start a new path.

Unfortunately, however, there was no such option. This fatty who knows nothing of the world is bound to get lost, either that, or get caught be some shady uncle and get sold. Not only that, the me who has yet to have my debut holds no skills whatsoever. Britany is the ordinary out of the ordinary, and depending on the case, a sad fatty with lower competence compared to the ordinary. And... As the daughter of the Hakusu, I don't have the guts to throw away the responsibility. Nobles were actually people who held great importance in their roles.

​

My plan of losing weight to not attract Meriru's sister became rather plain like so. As a normal lady of the Earl's family, I shall live a normal second life. That was my goal.
