How to raise a random guy's wife

“Young people often make impulsive decisions due to their lack of life experience and life wisdom. Although these decisions may seem good in the short term, they can lead to some unacceptable consequences in the future.” Kasumigaoka’s mother paused for a moment. “The more important the matter, the more you need to consider it.”

Eriri opened her mouth, wanting to refute, but didn't know how.

What Kasumigaoka's mother said is true.

This is a fact that Eriri cannot refute.

Kasumigaoka's mother looked serious. "So you need to think this through... What's so good about Utaha?"

Eriri: "Huh?"

"Honestly, I don't think Shiyu is worthy of a cute girl like you. You really need to think this through, or you'll end up hurting yourself."

"Huh?" Eriri was confused for a while. "She wouldn't hurt me..."

"Don't force yourself. Tell me if you're upset, and I'll help you get revenge."

"Really, there isn't any..."

"Then I'll speak for you," Kasumigaoka's mother thought for a moment, "Did she bully you?"

“Bullying…” Eriri blushed.

"So that's it. Did you also deliberately try to upset you or say things to make you angry?"

"that......"

"Yes, right? Did she ask you to serve her, bring her tea and water, cook for her, or anything like that?"

"I know a little bit of cooking..."

"See, I told you so." Kasumigaoka's mother had an "I knew it" look on her face. "If these problems can't be solved before marriage, they'll be hard to solve after marriage."

"Is...that so?" Eriri didn't think it was a problem. "I don't think there's anything wrong with it."

After all, she often bullied Kasumigaoka Utaha, deliberately saying things to upset her and making her serve her tea and water.

Kasumigaoka's mother sighed, "You have such a good temper."

"I have a good temper?" Eriri felt a little guilty.

I feel very guilty.

"She's beautiful, has a great personality, a good job, and a good family background..." Kasumigaoka's mother asked curiously, "You're so wonderful, why did you fall for Utaha? What do you like about her?"

"What do I like about her?" Eriri tilted her head. "Well..."

-

"I don't know," Kasumigaoka Utaha answered truthfully. "I don't know what I like about her."

"Don't know?" Kasumigaoka's father shook his head. "That's hardly an answer."

“Then please demonstrate for me, Dad,” Kasumigaoka Utaha raised an eyebrow. “What do you like about Mom?”

Kasumigaoka's father: "......"

"See? You can't explain it either."

Kasumigaoka's father remained calm. "I'm just doing some statistics."

“Okay, then I’ll wait until you finish compiling the statistics.” Kasumigaoka Utaha snorted lightly. “Make sure you don’t miss anything,” she took out her phone. “I’m starting to record now. You can begin your presentation whenever you’ve finished compiling the statistics.”

Kasumigaoka's father: "...I didn't ask this question to deliberately make things difficult for you, but rather to hope that you can be more honest with yourself and have a clearer understanding of your thoughts and what you are doing. From the moment you heard this question, to thinking about it, to giving an answer, to speaking it out to me, this whole process is a complete process of facing yourself squarely."

Kasumigaoka Utaha waved her phone. "I asked you a question to put you in a difficult position. Have you finished the statistics yet?"

“I remember when you were little, you would secretly rummage through the books in my study. I thought some of the books in the study weren’t suitable for you yet and would affect your grades, so I locked the study.” Kasumigaoka’s father closed his eyes slightly. “From then on, you used your increased appetite as an excuse to ask us for more pocket money to buy books. To cover up this lie, you would try to eat more at home. When the end of the semester came, you would put your report card (which showed you were first in your grade) and the books you had saved up for on the coffee table, deliberately letting us see them.”

Kasumigaoka Utaha put down her phone. "What's the point of talking about something that happened so long ago..."

“We haven’t interfered with your affairs since then, because the more we try to stop you from doing something, the more you’ll do things to prove yourself.” Kasumigaoka’s father opened his eyes. “Only when we leave you alone can you do what you want to do, instead of doing things that can prove yourself.”

Kasumigaoka Utaha pursed her lips. "I thought you guys were just doing nothing so that you could have an easy time."

Kasumigaoka's father: "This is indeed very easy."

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "......"

"So I hope you will answer my question seriously: are you with her to prove something, or because you like her?" Kasumigaoka's father further explained, "Although the result is the same, the feelings are different, and the actions you take in the future will also be different."

“It’s not to prove anything.” Kasumigaoka Utaha looked directly into her father’s eyes. “I like her, but I don’t know why. I like being with her, but I also like her when we’re not together. I like the feeling of creating with her, but I also like her when we’re not creating. I like her when she’s happy, and I also like her when she’s angry…”

Kasumigaoka Utaha's eyes flickered slightly as Eriri's adorable image flashed before her eyes.

What are we trying to prove? Of course not.

With Eriri by her side, Kasumigaoka Utaha has become oblivious to everything else.

Kasumigaoka Utaha couldn't remember the day, the location, the surrounding scenery, or the surrounding environment...

Only Eriri was clearly imprinted in her mind.

I can recall it in an instant, but I can never forget it.

“That’s why I said we should spend time compiling statistics, though it was all very disorganized.” Kasumigaoka’s father paused. “However, your expression was more convincing.”

Kasumigaoka Utaha raised her phone again, "Have you finished the statistics?"

"There are too many; it will take more time to tally them up."

Kasumigaoka Utaha put down her phone, looking rather dejected. "That answer was too cunning..."

"Before you knew it, it was time to get married... to have a wife..." Kasumigaoka's father shook his head with a smile. "I used to wonder why I wasn't married by now, but now it feels like I'm suddenly married..."

Kasumigaoka Utaha didn't expect Eriri to bring up marriage so directly. "We like each other, we've confirmed our relationship, so of course the next step is marriage."

"Alright..." Kasumigaoka's father's eyes flickered slightly. "Will she care about you?"

“Yes, she always has to say something, and she gets angry if you don’t listen to her.” Kasumigaoka Utaha laughed unconsciously as she spoke. “She’s different from you guys. Even if I prove myself right, she’ll still be angry. She’s completely unreasonable.”

“I see…” Kasumigaoka’s father said with a complicated expression. “Actually… we’ve been wondering if our parenting methods are wrong.”

Kasumigaoka Utaha asked, puzzled, "What?"

“We think that’s your personality, so we used this kind of educational method. But if we changed our method, wouldn’t your personality change a bit?” Kasumigaoka’s father glanced at the study. “If I hadn’t locked the study and had instead chosen books suitable for you to read with you, perhaps many things would have been different.”

"...There's no point in talking about this now. The past is the past." Kasumigaoka Utaha stood up. "I'm going to find Eriri. She's probably in a panic right now."

Kasumigaoka's father responded softly, "Mm."

Kasumigaoka Utaha's hand had just touched the doorknob of the study when she heard her father calling.

"Poetry Feather".

"Ok?"

"...It's nothing," Kasumigaoka's father waved his hand, "Go on..."

"dad."

"Ok?"

"Whether the education method is chosen based on personality or the education method determines personality, I don't know." Kasumigaoka Utaha didn't turn around. If she had, she might not have been able to speak so fluently. "What I do know is that it is because I want to prove myself that I can maintain independent thinking while reading books that are not suitable for my age, and access information far beyond what my peers can without being influenced."

"Poetry Feather..."

"This was a rare experience. It helped me develop the good habit of maintaining top grades in my grade, made me love reading and writing, and then I met the person I love." Kasumigaoka Utaha turned her head, her short hair flying in the wind. "Now I have a job I love, a life I love, and someone I love. If you still feel regretful... then when you have time, could you recommend some books that you think would suit me?"

"Okay." Kasumigaoka's father covered his face, his voice slightly muffled, "I've got it."

Are you crying?

"It's a book list being compiled."

-

"I don't know..." Eriri's mind drifted back to all the moments she shared with Kasumigaoka Utaha, most of the time she was the one being silly, and Kasumigaoka Utaha was the one laughing. "I don't know how to say it..."

“There’s so much to talk about!” Kasumigaoka’s mother patiently guided, “Personality?”

"She has a terrible personality."

"Talent?"

"Hmm...about the same as me."

"figure?"

"It's...it's alright..."

"Appearance?"

"That's good too..." Eriri thought and thought, but couldn't come up with a satisfactory answer. "It feels like there's so much to say, and no matter how much I say, I'll always miss something. I love being with her, I love bickering with her, I love creating together, I love sleeping with her in my arms, or her holding me. I love how she criticizes my breakfast with a look of disgust but then eats it all up. I love how she gets scared and shakes when I'm watching horror movies but still holds me tight. We can stay together all day without saying a word, or we can argue tirelessly for a long time. When I'm with her, I always think a lot, and then I can think of nothing at all... What am I even saying..."

Eriri said a lot, and there was even more she didn't say, "Anyway, I just like her! I like her so much!"

Kasumigaoka's mother looked at her gently, "This is what it means to like someone."

Its origins are unknown, yet it goes on and on.

Hearing her mother's voice, Eriri, who had just come to her senses, lowered her head shyly again.

What did I say to Shiyu's mother?!

Thankfully, Shiyu wasn't there.

"Shiyu, you heard that, didn't you?" Kasumigaoka's mother warned, "If I find out you're not treating this child well, don't blame me for disciplining you."

"Utaha?!" Eriri turned around and saw Kasumigaoka Utaha behind her. "You..."

"I heard everything, I heard it clearly." Kasumigaoka Utaha ran two steps and pounced on Eriri, hugging her tightly. "So you like me that much~"

"Who... I didn't... that was just now..." Eriri's face turned bright red, "Mommy's still watching!"

"Mmm~" Kasumigaoka's mother happily agreed, "Can you call me again?"

"What are you saying again..." Eriri suddenly realized what she had just said and instinctively hid in Kasumigaoka Utaha's arms.

Kasumigaoka Utaha hugged Eriri, "You changed your tune very quickly."

Eriri punched her chest with her little fist, "You still dare to talk back!"

"Mom, look!" Kasumigaoka Utaha pointed to Eriri's little fist. "Are you still worried that I'll bully her now?"
