But Yukino was right about one thing. No matter what the reason was, it was not a bad choice to let Mrs. Yuigahama have a good impression of herself.

Hachiman saw Mrs. Yuigahama wearing work gloves, so he asked, "Are you going to weed?"

She saw that the weeds in the yard were quite tall and made a guess.

"Well, I was too busy to take care of it before, but now it's getting taller and taller."

Hachiman said naturally: "Then leave it to me. This kind of work is too tiring for a girl to do."

Mrs. Yuigahama smiled gently and said, "If that's the case, then I'll trouble you, Hikigaya-kun."

Without saying a word, Hachiman took the work gloves from Mrs. Yuigahama, but accidentally touched her palm and felt a warm and delicate sensation. However, the wife quickly retracted her hand. He put them on as if nothing had happened, then walked to the yard and started doing physical work. The sun was quite strong today.

Seeing this, Mrs. Yuigahama started cleaning. Yukino also stood up and said, "Let me help, Aunt Yuigahama."

"How can this be so embarrassing? You're the guest." Yukino complained in her heart. Isn't Hachiman a guest? Oh, of course not, he's the son-in-law.

"I feel a little embarrassed to eat and drink for free here, so let me help with the housework." Yukino said calmly.

As expected, they are all good children, Mrs. Yuigahama sighed in her heart, and then said with a smile: "The real freeloader is sitting on the sofa now, not paying any of his monthly salary for household subsidies. How could I raise such a shameless child?"

Being criticized by her mother in front of Yukino, Yui felt a little embarrassed and said, "I will give it to you. I will give you household expenses when my salary increases next month."

Mrs. Yuigahama smiled and said, "Then I will just wait without any expectations."

Perhaps because she was looked down upon, Yui couldn't help but puff up her cheeks. Looking at the interaction between the mother and daughter, Yukino felt a little envious.

Even though she knew that her mother truly cared about her, the environment and the way they got along since childhood determined that she and her mother would never argue like this.

Next, Mrs. Yuigahama and Yukino were cleaning the room, and Yui stopped watching TV and watched Hachiman weeding outside.

"Why do young billionaires with a net worth of over 100 million yuan fall to the point where they need to be weeded out"

There are indeed a lot of weeds in Yuigahama's yard, some are even half a person tall. And from the traces on the ground, it is obvious that Mrs. Yuigahama has dealt with it before, but it was probably a problem of strength. In the past, Yui's mother only cut the grass with a sickle instead of pulling it out by the roots, so it will continue to grow taller after a while.

The sound of summer cicadas in the trees was incessant. It was the time when the sun was at its hottest. Hachiman spent all his strength pulling out the rope for half an hour. He seemed to have only completed half of it, but his cheeks and body were already covered with sweat. He stopped to take a break. His blue shirt was completely wet.

At this moment, Yui walked to the wooden board in front of the courtyard with a cane and said, "Xiaoqi, why don't you take off your clothes."

"Hey, why?" Hachiman asked.

Yui's eyes wandered a little, and she said, "I want to see you topless."

Usually, you can see Hachiman naked in the room, and she likes to turn off the lights when doing that, so there are few opportunities to see Hachiman naked in the sun.

Hearing Yui say this, Hachiman took off his blue shirt without saying a word.

Mrs. Yuigahama and Yukino were cleaning the kitchen. Yukino was wearing rubber gloves and cleaning the range hood with detergent, while Mrs. Yuigahama was cleaning the cupboards.

"Hey, Yukino, you are so hardworking. It would be great if you could be my daughter." Mrs. Yuigahama had a gentle smile on her face, which showed no signs of aging.

Yukino tilted her head slightly and said honestly, "Sometimes I wonder how great it would be if my mother was you."

Qingxue:.............

Mrs. Yuigahama seemed very happy after hearing this, but Yukino quickly said, "Aunt Yuigahama, what do you think about the relationship between me, Yui and Hikigaya-kun?"

Mrs. Yuigahama's happy smile soon froze and turned into a bitter smile: "Let me be honest, I have watched you three children grow up since high school, especially after my husband passed away, I really treated you as my own children. When Yui said that you were dating Hikigaya-kun, I was worried that Yui would not be able to get over it, but I didn't expect her to be the same as before. In fact, I should have realized that something was wrong at that time, plus the feelings you have cultivated over the years, you would not give up even if I said I was against it."

Yukino nodded gently.

Mrs. Yuigahama continued, "But have you ever thought that the problems in the relationship between the three of you now are not moral, but realistic economic problems? I know Yui, she is just an ordinary child, and the most she can do in her life is to become an excellent kindergarten teacher, but you are different from Hikigaya-kun. It's not that I haven't paid attention to the news about you and Hikigaya-kun. You don't need to say anything, you have the Yukinoshita family behind you, and Hikigaya-kun, apart from titles like councillor, is also the president of a popular Internet technology company. The world of the two of you is too big, and I'm worried that Yui won't be able to catch up with you."

Chapter 5 Chapter

"I'm just worried that Yui won't be able to catch up with you." Mrs. Yuigahama said softly.

For some reason, Yukino seemed to be stunned when she heard this.

"In any case, your current relationship can't continue forever. If Hikigaya-kun chooses someone to marry in the future, who will that person be? I don't think I need to say it clearly. I'm not saying this for Yui, but for the three of you. I don't want your relationship of so many years to end up as enemies."

Mrs. Yuigahama spoke gently as an elder.

"I understand. I'll think it over carefully." Yukino nodded gently. What she was thinking about was her marriage with Hachiman, but the two of them seemed to have a tacit understanding and were hiding it from Yui. It's not that they didn't intend to tell her, but it seems that neither of them has thought about how to tell her.

It is quite rare that the word "no courage" appears in both Hachiman and Yukino at the same time.

Mrs. Yuigahama smiled faintly: "Since my husband passed away, our house has become a little lonely. Thanks to you and Hikigaya-kun, it has become lively here. No matter what, I will treat you as my children."

Yukino felt a little warm in her heart and said, "Aunt Yuigahama, you are still so young and beautiful, have you ever thought about finding another partner?"

In fact, Yukino is not the only one who thinks so. Yuigahama Yui's colleagues at work often drag her to social gatherings. Although they are all young juniors, she is very popular in the social gathering. It's not that she doesn't have suitable partners, but Yuigahama Yui doesn't have this idea now.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm old now. It's enough for me to just take care of you three and help you raise your grandchildren in the future."

Dreams are just dreams after all. The dream in which Hachiman confessed to her that he liked her instead of her daughter was nothing but an illusion.

She has now adjusted herself back to the status of the elder of the three and is no longer entangled in momentary fantasies.

Doing this will make her feel much happier.

Mrs. Yuigahama left the kitchen, put the washed clothes in the basket, and walked through the hall to dry them in the courtyard. Then one could see the light wheat-colored, sturdy body in the sun. His lines were as clear as a sculpture, but without the cumbersome feeling of those muscular men in the gym. Compared to the weak impression in high school, he seemed like a completely different person, especially with the wet sweat dripping continuously, which made people feel the masculine hormones.

This child has really grown up to be an outstanding man, Mrs. Yuigahama couldn't help but sigh in her heart, and then she saw that her silly daughter was completely attracted by her boyfriend's handsome body and kept taking pictures with her mobile phone.

"Oh, Xiaoqi, put your hands behind your head and pose, hehe." Yui seemed to have fallen into some kind of crazy state, and Hachiman felt a little embarrassed.

At this moment, Mrs. Yuigahama came out and said with a smile: "Ah, Hikigaya-kun has a really nice figure, can I touch it?"

Yui reacted immediately and stopped him immediately, "No, Mom, what are you thinking about? Xiaoqi is mine."

"But it's really beautiful. I wonder if it feels soft or hard to the touch." Mrs. Yuigahama said half-jokingly.

"Mom, let me tell you, Xiaoqi's belly is..." Yui wanted to brag about something, but was interrupted by Hachiman's cough.

He said, "Aunt Yuigahama, the weeds in the yard have been pulled out. I will buy some herbicide tomorrow and spread it there, so they won't grow back."

"Thank you for your hard work. Wait, Hikigaya-kun...where did these wounds on your body come from?" Mrs. Yuigahama said in surprise.

There were scars of varying sizes on Hachiman's body, all left from injuries and healing. Mrs. Yuigahama's eyes flashed with a trace of heartache, and Hachiman quickly put on his clothes and covered it up, "Nothing, I accidentally left them when I was training before."

"Yeah, I've accompanied Hikigaya-kun to the hospital before, and he was so careless," Yui followed suit to cover up.

Yui knew how Hachiman got the wound, but if she told her mother about it, she might be scared.

Mrs. Yuigahama showed a puzzled expression, but seeing that the two were trying their best to avoid the topic, she did not continue asking.

Next, the three of them continued to clean the room. Hachiman happened to be there, so they replaced all the broken light bulbs, rusty faucets and other items in the room.

"There's actually no problem with this air conditioner. I just checked and there's no electricity in the circuit. The power switch is not turned on." Hachiman said as he put down the tools in his hands.

Mrs. Yuigahama looked at Hachiman's reliable back and understood why her daughter was attracted to a boy who had a girlfriend.

"As expected, it's better to have a man at home. To be honest, it's quite troublesome for me to change the light bulbs by myself on weekdays." Mrs. Yuigahama said with a smile.

Hachiman: “..........”

Why do I feel like I'm being teased?

"Oh, if Yui marries you in the future, I will be the only one in this house. It's a bit lonely just thinking about it." Mrs. Yuigahama stroked her cheek, seeming to be worried about the future.

"If that's the case, Aunt Yuigahama can also live with us." Hachiman added casually.

Mrs. Yuigahama smiled and said, "Thank you, but it's not really suitable."

Hachiman looked at Mrs. Yuigahama. Although her words were kind, Hachiman felt an impenetrable barrier. Perhaps she wanted to keep their relationship as an ordinary mother-in-law and son-in-law relationship.

"Mom, Xiaoqi, it's time to eat." Yui's voice interrupted their conversation.

Next, Hachiman and Yukino spent time leisurely at Yuigahama's house, as if they were back in high school. The two of them had gone too far on their own paths, and seemed to have a rare moment of leisure, and began to reminisce about their high school days, or perhaps, the time they had the company of the remaining two.

On a midsummer night, the sky seemed particularly clear, with the stars and moonlight twinkling with different lights. White smoke rose from the incense sticks placed aside, and the watermelon sprinkled with salt was particularly sweet. The three of them were enjoying the cool breeze in the courtyard.

"Well, I miss it so much. When was the last time we enjoyed the cool air like this?" Yui said with a chuckle, and even felt that this injury was a kind of luck in a sense.

"Hey..." Yukino, who seemed a little silent today, suddenly spoke.

"What's wrong, Xiaoxue?" Yui asked with a smile.

"Yui, Hachiman and I are getting married." In the end, it was Yukino who took the initiative to speak.

Yui showed a trace of hesitation, and the smile froze on her face.

For some reason, Hachiman recalled the time when he reunited with Yui after high school.

Chapter 6 Chapter

In the darkness, a slight panting sound was heard. After a long time, everything ended with a muffled groan. After a while, the woman walked into the bathroom attached to the room. The sound of water from the shower was heard. After a while, the woman in a bath towel came out and turned on the light in the room.

Hachiman was a little resistant to the sudden light and covered his eyes slightly, but the woman quickly came to the bed and held him in her arms.

Yukinoshita Kiyoyuki said softly, "Congratulations, Hikigaya-kun. You and Yukino were admitted to the University of Tokyo. It must have been very hard to endure during this period."

Hachiman was a little embarrassed, but his body was still immersed in the long-lost sage time, recalling the aftertaste of just now: "That's why... I didn't endure it so hard."

It's like a beautiful older sister holding a cute little brother. At this moment, Hachiman is in Qingxue's arms. Hachiman, who is only eighteen years old, is far inferior to Qingxue, who is a generation older than him, in terms of temperament and spirit, and is being played around in her hands.

Qingxue gently bit Hachiman's earlobe with a teasing smile: "Really? Who was it that just after dinner, you made an excuse to go back to your room, and then climbed over the wall to come to my room and started messing around? You almost broke my waist. It turns out that adolescent boys are like dogs."

Hachiman's cheeks turned red and he looked very embarrassed. Because he had repeated a grade with Yukino to prepare for the college entrance examination again, Kiyoshi would not let him touch her during the last, most stressful month of preparation, saying that it was to help him concentrate. But no matter how Hachiman thought about it, he felt that Kiyoshi was just teasing him.

In the past year, he had been secretly maintaining an impure relationship with Qingxue. He had already gotten used to the taste for it, but suddenly he lost the appetite for sex, just like a smoker who had been smoking for many years suddenly felt very uncomfortable. After all, although he and Xueno were in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, their physical relationship was pure.

Sometimes he also felt sorry for Yukino, especially the relationship between Kiyoyuki and Yukino, which made Hachiman feel that what was between them was immoral. However, he felt that he could no longer let go of Kiyoyuki, both physically and mentally. Perhaps this was just the possessiveness of an adolescent boy, but it was undeniable that every tryst with Kiyoyuki made him feel very comfortable.

Hachiman sniffed Kiyoyuki's hair gently, and the woman chuckled and said, "It really is like a puppy. Compared to Yukino's long hair, my own, whose is more comfortable?"

"No, I don't want to compare like this." Hachiman said softly.

Qingxue narrowed her eyes slightly: "What a cunning little man."

Hachiman seemed a little unhappy with the title and said, "No matter how young he is, he is still your man."

"Haha, it seems that this year's training has not been in vain. You finally don't act like a monk without desires anymore." Qingxue smiled with some satisfaction.

Hachiman gently stroked the woman's silky skin and said in a low voice: "This is all your fault, it's because you seduced me."

"Well, just put all the blame on me. Everything is my fault. You just need to enjoy it." Qingxue showed a tolerant and gentle expression. Hachiman wanted to snuggle into her arms and act coquettishly.

In front of Yukino, she needs to maintain everything as a man, but only in front of Kiyoyuki can he easily relax himself. Perhaps this is also the reason why he is obsessed with the woman in front of him.

"However, you will be going to Tokyo with Yukino tomorrow, and you won't be able to have fun all the time like you do now. But, I'm sure you must be very happy that you can escape from an old woman like me and don't have to endure my sarcasm anymore." Qingxue's hand also gently stroked his hair.

"I... will come back to Chiba when Yukino and I are free." Hachiman didn't know what to say, so he could only comfort him like this.

"I know you men. You say that, but when faced with the fresh temptations of college, you will forget about me completely in a short time and run after those pretty girls in college." Qingxue said with a sneer.

Hachiman was silent for a moment, then said, "I'm not that kind of person. I... you and Yukino are enough for me."

Qingxue laughed and said, "Look at what you said. What do you mean by having me and Yukino? Are you wronged? And why should I continue to wrong myself? You went to find a little sister behind Yukino's back, but I can find other men when you are not around. Isn't this fair?"

But his words immediately aroused Hachiman's reaction. With red eyes, he tightly held Qingxue's hand and said, "No, you are mine. You can't look for another man."

Qingxue felt pain for a moment, then smiled charmingly: "It seems that the physical training this year was not fake. The strength to beat a woman has increased a lot."

Hachiman instantly showed a look of regret, let go of Qingxue, and said with annoyance on his face: "Sorry, I didn't mean it just now."

But before he could finish his words, Qingxue blocked his lips. After another round of refreshing kiss, the two let go of each other.

"I'm glad, Hikigaya, you looked so nervous about me just now."

"Qingxue, I like you, don't leave me, okay?" Hachiman couldn't help but say.

"Idiot, I was just scaring you just now. Do you think I'm a fickle woman? Now that I have chosen you, I won't consider other men." Qingxue said with some pride.

But after thinking about it, Hachiman said, "But, it was me who killed your husband, and it was on your instructions..."

Qingxue was immediately furious and grabbed his neck: "What do you mean, am I some kind of calamity star that specifically kills my man?"

"I'm just kidding, just kidding." Hachiman said quickly.

"Huh, now you've even learned how to joke in front of me. I don't even dare to imagine what you can learn in the future." Qingxue pinched his cheek gently.

"All this is thanks to you." Hachiman was not being modest. Over the past year, Qingxue had indeed trained him to be more manly.

But after a moment of silence, Qingxue said to Hachiman: "Go to Tokyo to attend university. I'll give you a mission. Then go meet a girl. Don't be so tied up between me and Yukino."

Hachiman frowned slightly and said, "Why, for me, having you and Yukino is enough."

Qingxue chuckled and said, "If this is a love talk to coax me, then it proves that you have made great progress. But for me, the more ties you have, the better."

The better the bond with Hachiman is, the less likely he will do stupid things when he and Yukino turn against each other in the future because of her father's affairs. At least she and other girls in this world still need him.
