Hikigaya, the Son-in-law of Three Surnames

She once walked along the bluestone road in the mist and rain, holding a black umbrella;

I once watched the clouds roll in and out in the moonlight over the waves;

I once took advantage of the spring breeze from Xiaguan and picked purple-red silver bridge flowers;

I used to see young girls carving plum blossoms and weaving natural tie-dyed cloth.

When people see too much, they want to see the sea; when the sea sees too much, it wants to see people. Now she is still in the former and has not yet tired of the latter.

Even the disappointment after asking again and again became calm. In the end, she even stopped asking questions. She preferred to appreciate the smooth tie-dyeing skills of the old lady with wrinkles on her face like knife-like wrinkles. She sat at the threshold of the inn, holding a bowl of refreshing and delicious rice noodles, and watching the various life experiences of passers-by.

It even made her feel that if they were destined to meet again, that would be great, but if they missed each other in the end, it wouldn't be a big regret.

The afternoon sun made people drowsy. Gray and white kittens were huddled together in the teahouse. Yumiko knitted the photos she took and sent them to Twitter.

An old black cat was lying on the open-air coffee table in front of the door, yawning under the parasol, and melodious and slow music continued to play in the teahouse.

* She was the girl I loved deeply

*Tell her to make me a burlap dress

*On a mountain deep in the green forest

*Coriander, sage, rosemary and thyme

Yumiko suddenly recalled the scenes he had described to her: lush green grasslands, beautiful snowflakes, lush pine forests, long and desolate mountains, and the smell of rosemary.

She stood up immediately and asked the sleepy clerk, scaring him out of his sleepiness.

"Excuse me, is there any place to grow spices under Cangshan Mountain?"

"Ah, spices?"

“It’s things like rosemary, herbs, thyme, etc.”

"There is indeed a rosemary planting base at the foot of Cangshan Mountain, which is contracted by an old man named Lao Tian..."

"Thank you." A gust of wind blew away, and the decorative bells in front of the door made a tinkling sound.

The old cat yawned, not caring about the joys and sorrows of this world.

Volume VI

Chapter 1 Chapter

Summary of the main plot: In order to repay the kindness of her father's upbringing and love, Shinomiya Yunying's daughter Lingzi uses a car accident to stimulate Shinomiya Sayoko's desire for revenge. The immature avenger bullies Shinomiya Masamune with extreme means, but Shinomiya Huangguang also noticed some clues. Fortunately, Hachiman noticed it in advance and made arrangements to save Sayoko's life. The struggle in the Shinomiya family has entered a white-hot stage.

At this time, something unexpected happened. It was reported that Kaguya's father, Shinomiya Gan'an, had passed away. Before the funeral, the lawyer brought Gan'an's suicide note, which revealed that the position of the head of the family would be passed to Kaguya, the illegitimate daughter. This shocked everyone. But something unexpected happened again. Kaguya's mother, Shinomiya Nayatake, who was thought to have passed away, appeared together with people from the Shijo family, denying Kaguya's qualification as the head of the family. Some people showed their claws, some were waiting for an opportunity, and some could not wait...

"You're not my mother at all."

"Mr. Hikigaya, here, there is another bottle..."

"Oh no! The ship hit a reef!"

"Where is this place?"

"You, a fake bastard..."

"Who are you? Who am I?"

Volume 6, a grand serial.

.........................................

The night was as blue as water. The koi in the courtyard pond playfully jumped out of the water, creating ripples and stirring the silver moon. Sigong Huangguang stood by the pond and looked at the plump koi. A servant handed him a small plate of fish food. He gently sprinkled it into the pond, which attracted hundreds of red and white koi to scramble for it.

Shigong Sayoko followed her obediently, looking at Hongli silently. Huang Guang asked in a slightly hoarse voice: "Sayako, what do you think about what happened tonight?"

The cautious young woman showed astonishment on her face and asked, "Father, I am such a shallow and ignorant person..."

But Huang Guang waved his hand and said, "Since Zhengzong has become like this now, you have the responsibility to shoulder his burden. When he gets better in the future, you can also assist him. It doesn't matter if you don't understand. Just learn slowly. I believe you are smart."

When talking about his son who had suffered so much, Huang Guang's tone couldn't help but become a little soft.

After hearing this, Sayoko thought for a moment and said, "I think the one we should be most vigilant against is the Shijo family."

Huang Guang raised his eyebrows slightly, continued to scatter fish food, and said, "Tell me in detail."

"No matter who the nominal head of the family is, you are the eldest son after all, and you actually control the long-standing network of relationships in our family. This is something that Miss Kaguya or Madam Mingyezhu cannot shake for the time being. However, the Shijo family, which has always been an outsider, has successfully gained the reputation of influencing the internal disputes of the Shinomiya family with the help of Madam Mingyezhu, so we should be very vigilant."

Huang Guang was a little amazed, and looked at his daughter-in-law with a new respect: "You saw the key point at a glance. You may be more talented than Zhengzong."

"No, how dare I..." Sayoko said timidly.

Huang Guang tried hard not to frown. After all, he had been bullied for too long and had become a little timid. Well, he would just have to teach him slowly.

Sigong Huangguang's current predicament is that after his son Zhengzong suffered a stroke, he can't find anyone he can trust. He is not the type of person to trust servants. On the contrary, this daughter-in-law seems to have some brains, but she has been suppressed in the past and has her shortcomings.

"Apart from the Shijo family, do you think there are any other places worth noting?" Huang Guang continued to ask.

Sayoko was a little embarrassed. She lowered her head and continued to think. Her black hair fluttered slowly in the night breeze. "I think we should also pay attention to Miss Kaguya's husband, Mr. Hikigaya Hachiman. He is a truly talented person."

Sigong Huangguang nodded: "If you were my daughter, I would recruit him to be my son-in-law. He has a fierceness, which is something that the children of the Sigong family who have been comfortable for a long time have lacked for a long time. Instead, he is more suitable to be my heir than Zhengzong."

Sayoko's face suddenly turned red, her eyebrows trembled, and her fists clenched slightly.

Huang Guang raised his eyebrows slightly: "What's wrong? Are you dissatisfied?"

Sayoko plucked up the courage to say, "I think your analogy is inappropriate. I, I will only be Masamune's wife."

Huang Guang smiled dumbly and said, "It's my carelessness."

After saying this, there seemed to be a scrutinizing look in his eyes.

Then he continued to ask: "Besides Hikigaya Hachiman, in my mind, he is not even the most noteworthy person."

Sayoko thought about it carefully, and finally shook her head and gave up.

Huang Guang had a general judgment of Sayoko in his mind, and just when he was about to speak, someone approached the koi pond.

"Brother Huang Guang, you're being beaten up at your doorstep, yet you still have the leisure to enjoy the fish here. Your skills in cultivating your Qi are truly remarkable."

The man came over in a hurry.

Sayoko looked at the sinister guy and said gently, "Third Uncle, good evening."

Yunying responded, and then fell silent. After a while, Sayoko seemed to realize something belatedly and said to Huang Guang, "Then, father, I will go to the hospital to take care of Zhengzong first."

"Thank you for your hard work. Be careful on the road." Huang Guang said calmly.

Sayoko nodded slowly and left.

Originally, the discord between the brothers Huang Guang and Yun Ying was well known. After all, they were the ones who had fought the most fiercely before. But now, with Kaguya and Hachiman on the inside and Ming Yezhu and the Shijo family on the outside, as well as the second brother Shigong Shengshi who was not sure what he was thinking, it seemed natural for these two to come together and form an alliance of interests.

Yunying seemed to enjoy the fun and asked, "Brother, are you really going to let this little girl take over Zhengzong's affairs for you?"

Huang Guang pondered for a moment and said, "Just now I asked Sayoko who we should pay attention to in what happened today. She first mentioned Ming Yezhu and Shijo family, and then mentioned Hikigaya Hachiman."

Cloudhawk said, "He still has brains, but he's not smart enough and doesn't see enough."

Huang Guang nodded: "If she has any intention of protecting Hikigaya Hachiman... then this koi will probably grow even fatter in the fall, but we can at least use it now."

Sayoko walked slowly through the Feng Shui archway and sat on the stone like a sick Xizi. Her back was soaked and her breathing was trembling with fear. In the seemingly ordinary conversation just now, she was walking on thin ice. If her answer was not satisfactory, she would probably be pressed to death next to the koi pond.

Shinomiya Masamune was indeed far inferior to her father, but she clenched her fists tightly. Since she was not dead, it meant that she had further gained Shinomiya Huangguang's trust.

She whispered coldly: "After all, you are still too self-righteous."

Their contempt for women is Sayoko's greatest weapon.

She rested for a while in the cool breeze, then went to the garage and got into a BMW 7 Series. But just as she got in the car, someone in the back seat gently handed her a knife and pressed it against her neck.

Sayoko was shocked. Could it be that the answer just now still couldn't dispel Shigong Huangguang's vigilance?

But soon, she noticed the chuckle of the person in the back seat. After Sayoko saw the person's appearance clearly in the rearview mirror, her tone became a little seductive.

"Are you trying to kill me or sleep with me?"

The man said, “Is there any difference?”

Sayoko gently pulled up her collar and slowly turned around. The tip of the knife slid along her skin and then pressed against her tender white collarbone. Sayoko slowly pushed forward and the knife slightly pierced into her white skin where blue veins could be seen, revealing a little bit of bright red blood. In the darkness, this bit of bright red was filled with a different color.

Sayoko lowered her head and gently licked the red on the tip of the knife. Her charming eyes raised along with her bright red teeth.

Hachiman in the back row couldn't help but widen his eyes. Sayoko crawled to the back like a snake and whispered in his ear: "I will make you reluctant to kill me."

Chapter 2 Chapter

Sayoko softly hooked her hands around Hachiman's neck, her eyes were like spring water, her breath was like orchid, and even her breath was warm.

She called out coquettishly, "Uncle, was what you did to me just now a bad thing?"

Hachiman, who had just fastened his belt, trembled a little, turned around and saw Sayoko looking at him lazily. In the past, she had neither confidence nor courage, just like a good girl who grew up under the wings of her parents. But after this change, her temperament went to the opposite extreme, becoming extreme and unrestrained.

Hachiman pinched her cheek and said, "Don't make trouble. I still have to accompany Kaguya to meet her mother. Now the situation is really getting more and more complicated."

"Haha, it's not complicated. I just need to kill Shinomiya Huangguang to avenge my parents and Lingzi. I don't need to care about other things. From this point of view, I am much purer than my uncle." Sayoko said softly in his ear.

Hachiman hesitated for a moment, as if he wanted to say something, but was stopped by Sayoko: "I know you are worried about me and want me to go to Chiba and not get involved in this mess, but it is impossible now. I personally sent Miss Najiang to her death, and her revenge is already on my shoulders..."

"I can go back to being the kind person I used to be, but the prerequisite is that I have to send the Four Palaces of Yellow Light to see God first."

Hachiman did not hide his admiration. If he was not worried about Sayoko's safety, such a sharp and ruthless character that would not give up until the goal was achieved would really suit his taste.

Unfortunately, Hachiman can hardly help Sayoko with Huang Guang's matter. If Huang Guang finds out that Sayoko is related to him, it will put her in greater danger.

As if by magic, Hachiman took out a cell phone and placed it in Sayoko's hand, saying, "Forget it. I knew I couldn't persuade you. This cell phone has been modified. Once it is turned off or destroyed by external forces, it will send out a positioning signal. I will save your life no matter what."

Sayoko held the phone tightly, and her heart full of hatred still had a hint of warmth. She said, "Hikigaya-kun, do you know that you make it difficult for me? Rationally speaking, if I want to kill Shinomiya Huangguang, I must do it with all my strength, even if we both die together. But your existence makes me worried, for fear that if something happens to me, I will never see you again."

Hachiman smiled. On the battlefield, those who are not afraid of death often die the fastest. Those who have concerns in their hearts will always think about staying alive at critical moments.

"Are you still going to the hospital now?" Hachiman asked.

"I've already told Sigong Huangguang that we have to act out the whole play and not let him find out anything... The doctor told me that chatting with Zhengzong frequently will help stimulate his nerves and help him regain consciousness. I will tell him how many times I made love with you. I will tell him all the details. I really look forward to the day when he can open his eyes."

Sayoko said softly, and in her gentle expression with her brows lowered, there was a huge hidden hatred. Even Hachiman couldn't do anything about it.

The solution is very simple, just kill Huang Guang and Shigong Zhengzong.

Originally, Hachiman didn't want to go to this point with the Shinomiya father and son. To be honest, although many people were killed by this father and son, Hachiman was not a saint so as to take it upon himself to avenge the hatred of those wronged souls. If it weren't for Sayoko, he would have ended up with the father and son in a victory or defeat, but now, they have to fight to the death.

Then kill him. If you say he can't stand the sight of blood, the souls of those who died at his hands would probably laugh.

Just as he was about to get off the car, Sayoko whispered, "Wait..."

Then, unreasonably, she planted a few strawberries on his neck and sprinkled her favorite perfume on Hachiman.

"Hey, I say, you are provoking him. After all, the other party is your elder." Hachiman persuaded earnestly. After all, Kaguya and Sayoko are friendly allies with common interests. It is not good to do this. Hachiman could imagine Kaguya's furious expression.

"Haha, she is an elder, but when I was bullied, I never saw her help me except Aunt Liuli." Sayoko said with narrowed eyes. She was particularly vindictive now.

"You also have to understand Kaguya's previous difficulties. Her situation is just slightly better than yours." Hachiman said earnestly.

Sayoko didn't care: "I understand why a guy who wants to steal my man would do that."

"In principle, you were the one competing with her for the man. Kaguya and I had a wedding." Hachiman corrected her.

"Haha, we haven't got the marriage certificate yet." Kaguya-chan, how many people will continue to criticize you for not getting the marriage certificate?

Hachiman mourned in his heart again.

"What's more..." Sayoko pinched Hachiman's cheek a little presumptuously, feeling a little sour.

"It's not her turn to serve tea even if I want to. Let's wait until she can defeat 'Sister Yukino'."

As long as Miss Kaguya can't get the position of the first wife, it will be the same for me in the end. Who should have to look at whose face?

Hachiman thought about it and decided to get off the car quietly and not get involved in the war between women.

But what to do with the strawberries and scented water? Hachiman was suddenly worried. However, as he was walking in the corridor, he met a beautiful woman with long golden hair wearing blue furisode.

At first glance, Hachiman almost didn't recognize her, and then he said, "Good evening, Miss Ruri."

This is Shinomiya Ruri, the wife of Shinomiya Seishi, and the only woman in Sayoko's words who will help her when Masamune takes action.

"Good evening, Hikigaya-kun." The woman's voice was full of exotic charm and also quite powerful.

"How about it? I just dyed my hair blonde. You almost didn't recognize me just now." There was a sense of pleasure in her voice.

Hachiman nodded, then said, "It's a good match for Ms. Liuli, and I think Mr. Shengshi will appreciate it too."

Shinomiya Ruri chuckled and was in a good mood, but then she saw the strawberry on Hachiman's neck. This was the way to Kaguya's boudoir, but not the way to leave it, so the meaning of these strawberries was self-evident.
