Who are you scolding for eating soft rice?

Chapter 113 112. We have another big gift for you

The orange sunset is like a fireball, hazy and warm.

After picking up things from the post office and returning home, Takitanizawa did not go out again. Instead, he went to Saitama Shintoshin Station to pick up his aunt from Yokohama with her sister who was already on vacation.

Relatives who are related by blood are the people who are most likely to rely on, apart from all emotional factors.

Even there are some that don’t quite work.

In Takitanizawa's memory, when his original parents died, there were only a few scattered relatives in Shizuoka's hometown to express their condolences. In fact, there were no relatives. However, his mother's sister, the aunt who married to Yokohama and changed her surname to Oguri, had no relatives. The ones who came the most frequently did not have any bad things like coveting family property. After all, Takitani Chun and Takitani Ze were both adults, but their careers were still unstable, and they would not be able to rest assured if they did not achieve anything.

In the two years after my parents passed away, they came often. They would come as guests almost every two to three months, and they would even stay for two days to talk to the siblings about anything.

There have been fewer in the past two years. Although the distance from Yokohama to Saitama is very close, it only takes about two hours by Shinkansen. Aunt Oguri works as a teacher in a nursery school in Yokohama and is usually very busy. Plus, they have stabilized. So the frequency of coming is less.

But the siblings still respect this elder very much.

Although he can't help in any real way, it's rare to see him take care of the younger generation in this kind of relationship.

After all, Japanese society is indifferent to people. As long as relatives are not close relatives, they are far less important than neighbors. Improving neighborly relations is the first priority after moving. After adulthood, relatives become estranged.

It was approaching six o'clock in the evening, in the living room of Takiya's house.

Yunko Oguri, who is over forty years old and has a little crow's feet at the corners of her eyes. She looks ordinary but has an extraordinarily friendly face. She glanced at everything in the living room with a nostalgic look in her eyes. She said softly with emotion:
"The family has not changed at all. You have all grown up. Even if sister and brother-in-law are still here, they will be happy because of you two children."

"Auntie, drink tea."

Takitani Chun brought the tea tray from the kitchen, rinsed the cup, filled it to eight percent full, and handed it over respectfully.

Oguri Yunzi took it with a smile in her eyes.

Glancing at the two children, she first fixed her gaze on the face of Takitani Chun on the left, with a charitable smile in the corner of her eyes. She did not rush to drink tea, but first put the cup on the coffee table and considered the arrangement for a moment. Good language, he asked softly in a conversational tone:

"How have you been lately? When we last talked on the phone, I heard that you had a conflict with your boss. Have you resolved it?"

She has the closest connection with Takitani Tsubaki.

After all, she is the eldest sister in the family. When her sister and brother-in-law died, this child had just started working and could barely support the family. Moreover, she also liked Takitani Chun very much, so she had a lot of contact even in normal times.

As for Takitani Ze, on the one hand, it was because he had been taciturn in the past, and on the other hand, most of the things he knew about Takitani Ze came from Takitani Chun.

For example, when Takitani Chun was promoted to the police department, she was the first to know about it, apart from Takitani Ze who facilitated it. Her aunt and nephew would often talk about anything that bothered her, and she wouldn't find it annoying. .

However, she has been hearing from Xiaochun recently that her nephew has changed a lot, and that even the last promotion was due to him. Xiaoqi Yunzi really doesn't believe it.

"It's settled." Takitani Chun's face looked strange when he heard this. He didn't know what to say for a moment, and subconsciously looked at his brother's face.

Because of the time difference and the last time we talked, I didn’t talk to my aunt about the current situation.

So she didn't know yet that she had been transferred.

Takitani Tsubaki thought about the scene where a document was thrown at the office yesterday. She touched her head and felt that the conflict with Principal Ino was still there, and it seemed to be deeper. However, her younger brother asked Kazama-senpai to adjust her. At the county police headquarters, we don’t have to deal with that boss anymore, so it seems to have been resolved.

Oguri Yunzi saw her expression was weird and she was muttering for a long time without saying anything. She thought it was still the same as last time, so she sighed slightly and comforted:

"Actually, this is how society is, especially if you are a police officer. I heard from my sister that your grandfather was often suppressed during his lifetime. There is nothing we can do about it. The same level is based on seniority, and different levels are based on position. You are an ideal kid, but you will suffer a lot in the future, so you must think more about how you treat people and things."

She knew how ideal her niece's character was, and to be honest, this was not a good thing.

Reality will teach every idealist how to behave. Even if there are many great people who have realized their ideals, the thorns and storms they have gone through during this period are not something ordinary people can bear. She feels that Takitani Tsubaki’s character is difficult to work in the workplace. She's like a duck in water, but it's definitely unrealistic for her to be that kind of housewife.

Even though Yunko Oguri works in a nursery school, she has come from the Showa era and is well aware of the darkness in the workplace.

The price of those dark 20 years, in addition to devoting all national power, also made the young people of the current generation pay off their debts. Otherwise, there would not be the emergence of the term social beast, and there would not be so many young people who have suffered from social pressure. Daer went to commit suicide by lying on the train and jumping off the building.

Thinking of this, Oguri Yunzi's heart moved, and she added: "I don't want you to tolerate it. If it is too much, I would rather file a complaint than wrong myself, let alone do anything stupid."

Takitani Tsubaki was thinking about whether to tell her aunt about the happy news of her transfer. She suddenly heard something about the topic of fearing that she would commit suicide and was confused. However, she opened her mouth and didn't explain much. She just nodded and said, "I understand. Don't worry, aunt." I, I won’t.”

"I hope you understand. Anyway, Aze has become successful now. He can help you. I feel relieved to see that the relationship between you two is still so good."

As Oguri Yunzi spoke, she brought the topic to Takitani Ze again, turned her eyes and asked with a smile:

"Aze, how are you doing lately?"

"I'm fine." Takiguzawa raised his head.

"Although lying is worse, he is still a bad boy if he doesn't finish his words." Oguri Yunzi's tone was gentle. Although she sounded like she was blaming, her tone sounded like she was just complaining about a misbehaving child.

She picked up the cup and took a sip of tea, feeling Takitani Tsubaki's eyes, and then said with a smile:

"I have listened to Xiaochun's story about you. Although Xiaochun and I don't think you earned the money through any improper means, and we don't want to delve too deeply into your secrets, we should at least tell our family. Probably, Xiaochun told me what you did, and she was very worried, afraid that you would go the wrong way, but I don’t think you are that kind of child, but you have to tell me."

She was actually quite curious about this matter. Not only did Xiaochun ask her about it several times before coming here, but to be honest, she didn't really believe it.

For this taciturn nephew, Oguri Yunzi felt that he had a boring temperament, but he was down-to-earth. Although he would not do anything big, nothing would happen to him. However, the changes that Xiaochun mentioned when he called her these few times have changed. What surprised her was the drastic change in temperament and the fact that she suddenly seemed to be very rich.

The car she took when she got off the Shinkansen today was Takitanizawa's car. She still knew the Maybach brand, but she was shocked just because she knew it.

This is a car worth tens of millions of yen. Although she has seen it before, she has never had any friends or relatives around her. Being able to drive such a car is completely beyond the scope of ordinary people, and it can cost thousands of dollars. Ten thousand yen, it was really hard for Oguri Yunzi to imagine what he had done. No wonder Xiaochun expressed her worries to herself several times on the phone.

Takitani Ze glanced at the sister who was pretending to look at her nose, mouth, and heart. He suddenly understood in his heart that he had not asked why he was waiting here. He understood in his heart and smiled bitterly: "I know I was wrong, please don't point at me." ”

"I don't mean to lecture you. Xiaochun is not too worried. She has said several times that she wants to follow you."

Oguri Yunzi just smiled.

Hearing this, Takitani Ze turned his head and looked at his sister who was a little stiff. Takitani Chun's eyes suddenly popped up and he couldn't believe that he had been betrayed by his aunt. He was a little angry at the moment, so he looked at him and shouted: "Look at me. What are you doing! I’m not following you!"

"Aunt!" She turned around and howled again.

Seeing her niece's appearance, Oguri Yunzi smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I just won't tell."

You've already told me!

Takitani Chun sighed helplessly while stroking his forehead.Looking at Sister A and Aunt Xiaoli.

Takitani Ze knew that if they didn't explain, they probably wouldn't know where they were going, but it would definitely not work if they used bullshit excuses like the overseas inheritance of his father's third uncle's cousin's son again.

He pondered for a moment, smiled with his eyes obviously full of inquiry, and slowly explained:

"Actually, I have a friend, whom I should know, named Akitsugu Shirakawa. His father is one of the directors of the Saitama Agricultural Cooperative Headquarters. He is very powerful. I have been doing business with him recently, and the start-up capital was also obtained through Raising money is similar to inviting investment with a project first. I have indeed made a lot of money in this period recently, and the current income is still quite good."

We are brothers in our hearts. If I have something to do, you can come to me.

He directly used Shirakawa Akitsugu as a shield.

There is no way, there is really no more suitable candidate than him, no matter in terms of authenticity or family conditions, even if the money he says is a bit outrageous, it will not make them completely disbelieve him.

What's more, you won't expose your funds.

Just the financial resources exposed by a car, even if it is worth 5000 to [-] million, it can be said that it is a business car purchased by Shuangshu Co., Ltd. to save face.

After all, after their careers are on the right track, many people will buy a more respectable business car for business trips or to save face, even if they don't have much liquidity. I believe they can understand this.

"Director of the Saitama Prefecture Agricultural Cooperative Headquarters?"

There was surprise in Yunzi Oguri's eyes. She probably knew the energy represented by this name.

It stands to reason that based on his understanding of his nephew.

There shouldn't be the slightest connection with such a big shot, but if you are very close friends with someone else's child, it seems that it is not impossible to get involved. After all, some people pay special attention to friendship.

But she still looked at Takitani Chun.

Seeing her aunt looking at her, Takitani Chun frowned and scratched her head. After thinking for a long time, she nodded and said, "Is there indeed such a person? I know that Bai Chuan often used to play with Aze. When they were in high school, they were because of I was caught pulling garlic planted in someone else's garden, and I was the one who picked it up."

A yellow-haired figure appeared in her mind, and then she confirmed: "Their relationship is indeed very good."

"That's it." Oguri Yunzi immediately felt relieved after hearing this, and looked at Takitani Ze on the face. After pondering for a moment, he said softly: "We won't ask too many questions. Investment is still risky. Ozawa, you have to be aware of it. Very measured."

As an aunt, of course she couldn't ask too many questions about a nephew who was already in his 20s.

"I understand." Takiguze nodded with a smile.

After saying this, she didn't mention it anymore, and asked about the recent life of their siblings. When she learned that Takitani Ze helped Takitani Tsubaki solve the problem and asked someone to transfer her directly to the county police headquarters, Oguri Yunzi once again refreshed her understanding of her nephew. After much hesitation, she resisted and did not remind her niece again.

Although Takitani Tsubaki's character is not suitable for the workplace.

But with the support of her younger brother, it doesn't matter if she seems to be willful, not to mention that she is just ideal.

During this period, he also believed his niece's words.

Because compared to the previous impression of Takitani Ze as a talkative nephew, now Takitani Ze can answer any question calmly, with a faint air of confidence, but he behaves appropriately but is not arrogant. It's like a new person.

The three of them chatted for a while, and Yunzi Oguri took out a large bag from the backpack she carried with her.

"Today happens to be your birthday. I didn't bring anything with me when I came from Yokohama, so I knitted a sweater for you in my free time. The style and size should be suitable."

Takitanizawa took the dark blue sweater, was stunned for a moment, and then sincerely thanked: "Auntie, I'm sorry for taking the trouble."

"You're welcome."

Oguri Yunzi looked at him with a smile, then turned away and said: "Xiao Chun, where is the gift you gave him?"

Takitani Chun did not answer this question. Instead, he looked at Takitani Ze's right wrist with fixed eyes. He also moved his head closer and asked with a strange expression: "Aze, why are you wearing a bracelet?"

"A gift from a friend." Takiguze looked down.

Takitani Chun was very curious. He moved his butt and came over. He picked up his wrist and turned it over to check: "Ah, is this real? I remember this is a man with Van Cleef & Arpels' four-leaf clover." Bracelet, actually I originally wanted to buy this for you, but I felt it was too girly so I didn’t buy it.”

"No, I made it according to the style myself."

"It's quite exquisitely done."

"Then what gift did sister prepare for me?"

Takitani Ze took back his right hand without any trace, and stretched out his left hand to catch her in front of her without any ceremony.

Seeing his brother retracting his hand, Takitani Chun was stunned for a moment and didn't care. Instead, he opened the drawer under the coffee table, took out a small black rectangular gift box, and suddenly opened it in front of his face:

"Qiang Qiang! The symbol of a mature man, the house number of the upper class, and the must-select of business elites. You deserve to own the Montblanc Master Art Series pen. This is not just a pen, but a holy pen that leaves traces when you wander in the ocean of knowledge." Things are indispensable items on your way to success.”

There was a pen lying quietly in a pure black rectangular gift box, tied with a golden ribbon. Takitanizawa took it and looked at it with some surprise.

The pen is thick in the middle and slightly flat on both sides. The overall outline is like a trekking pole. The entire pen body is wrapped with a retro gold coating. The cap and barrel are decorated with leaves and thorns, and there is a hexagonal white star logo on the top.

The platinum-plated pen clip is in the shape of a vigorous tree root, which looks very gorgeous and noble. In short, it looks beautiful.

He also bought a Montblanc pen.

To be precise, I bought it from Takase Hearse.

That one is much more expensive than this one, but compared to the emotionless money-grabbing items, this pen, which costs about 40 yen, carries my sister’s sincere feelings.

If it was said that he was particularly concerned about whether Ajie's gold mine could bring him much benefit.

Now I am just happy to receive the gift.

Based on Takitanizawa's understanding of her, more than 40 yen can be equivalent to a month's salary of her sister, not to mention that she had basically no savings before. Maybe this pen was the result of austerity during this period. He was slightly moved when he saw it. He closed the lid and said with a smile, "Thank you, sister. I like it very much."

However, Takitani Chun did not smile and say "That's fine" as he expected.

Instead, he looked at Aunt Xiaoli.

The eyes of the two people met in mid-air, as if conveying some secret message. Then Takitani Chun suddenly sat upright, raised his hand to his mouth and coughed twice:
"Don't worry, actually this is nothing, my aunt and I have a big gift ready to give you!"
