In response, Shinomiya Kaguya bit Hachiman's ear and whispered.
"Have you seen Shinomiya Masamune's wheelchair? This was when he was eighteen years old. He went skiing in Hokkaido and fell off a cliff. His spine hit the rocks and the fracture was quite serious. So he could only be paralyzed and sit in a wheelchair. But he was not married at that time."
"You mean, a family of equal status is unwilling to marry their daughter to your nephew?" Hachiman said as if he understood everything.
"Good people don't like to take risks," Kaguya said softly.
In fact, it is normal. If a family is of equal status or slightly lower than the Shinomiya family, their own foundation is actually not bad. For example, a family with an ancient bloodline like the Genji family has to save face. Although a marriage with the Shinomiya family is beneficial, the reputation of selling daughters for fame is really unacceptable to them.
Therefore, the only people who could allow their daughters to join the group and who didn't care if their daughters married a cripple were those families who were eager to gain power and had a not-so-good reputation.
"So what is the origin of my nephew's wife's family?" Hachiman asked with interest.
Nephew's wife...
Although it was not wrong, Kaguya still wanted to complain.
"Her family used to be a big real estate developer in Tokyo. The situation was a bit complicated. The Shinomiya family controlled the approval of some projects with huge budgets in the cabinet and parliament, such as the establishment of the Olympic Village. Then Sayoko's father first bought the land at a low price and cooperated with the Shinomiya family, and finally waited for the government to expropriate the land and contract the project."
Then the Shinomiya family gained huge benefits from it.
"Sayako's father is the white glove of the Shinomiya family. Are you talking about before? What about now?"
Kaguya said with a slightly mysterious smile, "What do you think will be the outcome for someone who has done too much of this dirty work and has too many inside stories about the Shinomiya family?"
Hachiman suddenly understood and said, "So that's how it is. Shinomiya Sayoko's father originally thought that marrying his daughter to the Shinomiya family would strengthen the relationship, but he didn't expect it to be a death warrant. But, since he had already dealt with the most useful people, why did he keep Shinomiya Sayoko?"
"Because there is really no empty shelf more suitable than her."
After all, with Shinomiya Masamune's appearance, she still needs the title of a legitimate wife. Compared with various women with unclear intentions, Shinomiya Sayoko, whose mother's family has been disposed of, is easier to control. She can be thrown away when she is no longer useful.
"Your Shinomiya family is truly the cancer of Japan." Hachiman said with a sigh.
Kaguya smiled and said, "Who said it wasn't?"
"Oh, oh, oh, you two young couple seem to be having a great chat. What are you talking about?" Suddenly, Sigong Huangguang joined in.
"Nothing, I just talked to Kaguya about the Shinomiya family. Otherwise, it will be troublesome if I do something rude in the future." Hachiman said calmly.
Kaguya looked at him with some surprise. Oh, if you want to do it, you have to pretend well.
"Haha, there's no need to be so reserved. You'll naturally understand as long as you spend more time with each other." Sigong Huangguang said.
"Well, I'm sorry for being a bit rude just now. What were you talking about just now?" Hachiman asked.
Being asked the question back, Sigong Huangguang smiled and said, "Ah, I was just telling a joke. Recently, my family is going to acquire the bankrupt and reorganized Imperial Airlines, but a junior employee of Mitsubishi Tokyo Bank is adamantly unwilling to give up the bank's debt and even said something about an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. Hahahahahaha."
Hachiman asked curiously, "And then?"
Shigong Huangguang said in a bored tone, "And then of course they chopped that guy into pieces and sank it into the bottom of Tokyo Bay. Do you think these people have something wrong with their brains? I don't understand. I really don't understand."
Hachiman could only mourn for the bank clerk silently. There was not so much justice in the real Neon.
"By the way, Hachiman-kun, you are not running for Chiba county councilor now, what are your plans for the future?" asked Shinomiya Huangguang.
Here it comes, the main topic is finally here.
"No, not yet." Hachiman said in line with the other party's meaning.
Sigong Huangguang looked at him with interest and said, "In that case, are you interested in taking over the Sigong family's media group? It can be regarded as a gift for your marriage."
"Media Group?" Hachiman said with some surprise.
"Oh, yes, I remember that you developed a software called tiktik which is quite popular. Why not merge it into the Shinomiya Media Group and operate it together? Now the Shinomiya family also needs to keep up with the pace of the times. Unfortunately, the Internet is too far away from us. Currently, you, Hachiman-kun, are the only one who has experience. So, isn't this job just right for you?" Shinomiya Huangguang said.
Hachiman turned his head and glanced at Kaguya, who was also somewhat stunned. However, Kaguya quickly realized what was happening and mouthed two words: "Shijo."
That's right, when the Shinomiya and Shijo families are about to start an all-out confrontation, no field can be missed. Hachiman's experience in new media is naturally unmatched. For the corrupt and conservative Shinomiya family, the Internet is indeed a field that makes them at a loss and they really don't understand it. On the contrary, Hachiman is an expert in using the Internet. If he is not stupid, you can see it by looking at his election strategy at the time.
More importantly, at present, he is a very useful cannon fodder. He is on the front line of the charge against the Shijo family. Even if he fails or is lost, it is not a pity.
In this situation, if Hachiman needs to further control the power of the Shinomiya family in the future, he cannot refuse now, otherwise he will be excluded from the Shinomiya family forever.
"I understand. I'll ask Brother Huang Guang for details later." Hachiman accepted it calmly.
The size of Shinomiya Media Group is not small, mainly focusing on local print media and TV stations in Tokyo and Kanto. Even in terms of market value, it is much higher than the current Tiktik, but the management method and profit margin are completely incomparable.
Then, Huang Guang casually said: "By the way, since you are new here and are not familiar with the affairs of the Shinomiya family, I will let Sayoko go to the group with you. Sayoko can still help you."
Shinomiya Sayoko looked up at her father-in-law in surprise. She had never heard of such a thing before, and it was obvious that she did not go there to help the young man, but to monitor him on behalf of the head of the family.
"Of course, if that's possible, it would be a great help." But the young man seemed genuinely happy.
Sayoko lowered her head again. She neither understood her father-in-law Huang Guang's thoughts, nor could she see through what the kind but strange young man was thinking. She could only lower her head silently and let him do whatever he wanted.
Chapter 58 The moonlight tonight is so beautiful
After the family banquet, everyone in the Shinomiya family, including the guests, returned to their rooms.
In Sigong Huang Guang's room, Huang Guang, who looked a bit rough, was wearing simple clothes. He had some strange habits and hated to light lamps at night, so he still maintained the ancient lighting method of lighting candles in the room.
It was late at night. He put on his coat, sat on the tatami, and gently closed his eyes, as if he was reviewing something.
The third brother seemed to be particularly silent today. No one knew what he was planning. According to that guy's character, it was impossible for him to give up at this point. However, his brother's sinister methods were really not worthy of being put on the table in his opinion.
As for the second brother, he still looked like a good old man waiting to die.
Kaguya's husband is indeed as interesting as the rumors say, but I haven't personally tested his quality yet, so all the rumors are just false.
Then let him make good use of this chess piece. He was a little worried that the turmoil stirred up by Hikigaya Hachiman was not big enough. After all, the Shijo family was now aggressive, while the Shinomiya family was quite concerned and could not spare the time to deal with them.
"Don't let me down," he whispered.
But soon someone interrupted his concentration and the door was opened forcefully.
At a time like this, the only one who has the courage to harass me like this is my own son.
Sure enough, Shinomiya Masamune walked up to him pushing a wheelchair with confusion and anger on his face.
"What's wrong, Masamune? Why aren't you sleeping so late?"
"Father, why did you let Sayoko monitor that guy? Do you think she has any chance of being competent for this job?" Shinomiya Masamune panted slightly.
Shigong Huangguang smiled and said, "Don't underestimate Sayoko. After all, she was a talented girl who graduated from Keio University. She just lacks some experience."
But after hearing his father's words, Shigong Masamune's face did not relax, but said: "You know that's not what I'm talking about!"
"Are you so worried that Sayoko will be snatched away by someone? You usually don't even want to go to the villa to see her for another second." Shigong Huangguang said calmly.
"How I treat her is my business, and it is not something that other people can get involved in." Shinomiya Masamune said, gritting his teeth.
"Then you have to rely on your own ability to take her back, or you will let that man named Hikigaya Hachiman take your wife away and enjoy her sweet body, her virgin body."
Such words should not be said by someone of his status, but Sigong Huangguang did not hide his words at all.
“Father…” Shinomiya Masamune shouted with difficulty, as if blood was coming out of his mouth.
But Sigong Huangguang looked sternly and said, "You have been a smart kid since you were young, but being smart makes you prone to getting stuck in a rut, especially after you became paralyzed. But you know, Zhengzong, even if you are paralyzed, I have never thought of having another heir with another woman. You are my only heir. In this case, you must be aware of it. If you think that the woman will be taken away, then use your own means to snatch her back."
The yellow light from the Four Palaces was as powerful as a hungry wolf or a ferocious tiger, which gave the Four Palaces Orthodox Sect a boost.
"She's just a woman. Sooner or later, you'll find out that even if you're paralyzed, as long as you have enough means and power in your hands, you can still make countless women prostrate themselves in front of you. To put it bluntly, whether Sayoko will cheat with Hikigaya Hachiman or continue to be an honest wooden man, I don't care at all. What I care about is you, Masamune, what will you do?"
"You seem to not care, but in fact, you still like your wife very much. Am I right, Zheng Zheng?"
Huang Guang said in a heavy voice that it was because he loved her that he felt inferior and that's why he brutally used violence against Sayoko. Shigong Huang Guang saw it all but said nothing.
Shinomiya Masamune suddenly raised his head and looked at his father, as if his hidden thoughts had been touched upon.
She has a gentle and virtuous character, a wonderful figure, and even if she often hides herself in rustic clothes, her brilliance cannot be concealed. How can you not be moved by such a woman?
But the more I feel moved, the more I can't control the indescribable anger in my heart.
"I... understand, father." Shinomiya Masamune said with his fists clenched tightly.
"I hope you can understand my father's painstaking efforts, Masamune."
Sigong Huangguang said this with a hint of tenderness, looking at his son who seemed to have cheered up a little, as if he was carving a piece of beautiful jade, carving it into the shape he wanted.
He had also heard a little about Shigong Yunying's failure in Chiba. In his opinion, there was only one reason for his brother's failure, which was that he trusted people too easily.
But he is different, he doesn't trust anyone, so no one can deceive him.
.........................
Kaguya Yawata, Hayasaka Ai and the other two returned to their room, but unfortunately the room did not have any personal furnishings of Kaguya, and it was more like a luxurious guest room.
Kaguya took off her red hairband, letting her long hair flow down. Then the girl took the black ivory comb handed to her by Hayasaka Ai and gently combed her hair.
This was her habit before going to bed. However, when she was combing her hair, she felt a strange gaze. She looked up and found that Hachiman was looking at her, so she threw the tissue beside the table to him. Her beloved "husband" caught it and handed her a handful of peanuts, saying, "Would you like some?"
"Why, weren't you full just now?" Kaguya asked with some amusement.
"Do you think you'd have an appetite to eat in that kind of place? Eating there often is very bad for your mental health." Hachiman sighed.
Hayasaka Ai, who was tidying up the bed, suddenly popped her head out and said, "Do you need me to go to the kitchen to cook some noodles for you? And the same goes for Miss Kaguya. I see you don't eat much."
"Oh, please, just cook me some scallion egg noodles." Hachiman said unceremoniously.
"There's no such cheap stuff here." Kaguya said with a chuckle.
"I will handle it appropriately." With that, Hayasaka Ai walked out, causing Hachiman to sigh.
Blonde maid, so useful.
But after Hayasaka Ai left, Kaguya suddenly realized that there were only two of them left.
What if this guy suddenly gets crazy and says: Madam, it's late tonight, why don't you go to bed early with your husband.
So how could she reject him?
Although they are nominally married, Kaguya is not ready to give her body to him.
I have gone through so much trouble just to prevent my body from becoming a tool for trading. If I give it away easily in the end, wouldn't all my efforts be in vain?
Just as she was daydreaming, she heard Hachiman say in a teasing tone: "Madam..."
"No!" she replied immediately.
"How do you know what I'm going to say?" Hachiman asked after a moment of surprise.
"Then, what do you want to say?" Kaguya said somewhat stiffly.
"I want to say, Madam, the moonlight tonight is so beautiful, shouldn't we go outside to appreciate it?"
Chapter 59 Uncle...
Standing in front of the corridor, Hachiman cast a long shadow under the reflection of the silver moon. He stretched out his hand, as if waiting for Kaguya's response.
It was a quiet night with only the sounds of insects in the courtyard. It was a bit hot, and Kaguya's breath was also a bit hot.
After a while, Hachiman shook his hand in the air and said, "You're embarrassing me."
Kaguya let out a soft cry and subconsciously took Hachiman's hand. Then she was lifted up and dragged out by Hachiman.
"Wait, my hair is still messy."
"It's not messy, it looks pretty good."
"I, I'll change my clothes first."
"We're at home, so it's okay as long as we're not wearing pajamas."
“Mmmmm…bullying,” Kaguya whispered.
If I go out like this now, what's the difference between this and a shameful play?
But Kaguya finally followed Hachiman out. The moonlight tonight was so beautiful. This was the only point that Hachiman did not lie to her.
The night sky is starry and it is indeed a good day to appreciate the silver moon. Beside the pond in the courtyard, you can even see frogs leaping into the water, and a sense of coolness and purity instantly rises from your heart.
"You are so lucky to be able to enjoy such a view every night." Hachiman exclaimed.
"The people who live here don't have the leisure time like you to appreciate the beautiful scenery here," she said softly.
The evidence was that outside the corridor, there was no one else except her and Hachiman.
Even if Hachiman hadn't forcibly pulled her out, she would not have been able to see this beautiful scenery so close to her after living here for so many years.
It is neither a tragedy nor a comedy, but simply a pure and desireless state of mind, which is rare for this place.
"That's not necessarily the case." Hachiman said with a smile, and slowly walked with Kaguya to the rest area in the courtyard. There was someone sitting on a stone chair, and it seemed that his purpose was the same as theirs, admiring the eternal bright moon.
She raised a glass of wine and drank it alone, her posture was elegant and bright, with a heroic air.
"Sister-in-law?" Kaguya greeted softly.
The only person who could make Kaguya call her sister-in-law willingly was naturally her second sister-in-law, Shinomiya Ruri, who had just stopped Shinomiya Masamune from committing violence in the lobby.
