Hikigaya, the Son-in-law of Three Surnames

Yang Noi slowly came out from under the sofa with a smug smile on her face: "Ah, Yukino's expression of wanting to cry but not being able to just cry was really great, it turned out that I made the right decision this time."

Yukino looked at her sister coldly, and the chillness in her gaze was almost the same as the weather outside the window.

"Yukinoshita Haruno, how did you get here?"

Yangyan should not have told Yangno, she still believed in her sister's selfishness.

As a result, Yang No laughed and said, "How did she get here? Of course she followed that little girl Yukinoshita Kagerou. She thought she was hiding so well. She's as stupid as an idiot."

Haruno never missed an opportunity to belittle her sister.

Xueno couldn't help but frowned and said, "But how did you get into the room? I clearly remember that I locked the door."

But Yang Nai showed a half-smile and asked, "How do you know this is my first time here?"

Yukino couldn't help but look up in surprise, and then she heard Yangno say, "You can't hide the fact that you have mobilized the company's resources from anyone. Although you used your own pocket money to fill in the accounts, the movements of the construction team cannot be concealed."

Yukino's expression was a little ugly. She thought she had done well enough.

Yang Nai chuckled and said: "Don't be too discouraged. If it weren't for me, always paying attention to your movements, Xiao Xue Nai, normal people wouldn't notice it, but now..."

Yangno raised her hand, with a bunch of keys hanging from it. Since she knew that Yukino was building a wooden house, it didn't surprise her that Yangno could get the keys from it.

"Yukinoshita Haruno, you're a stalker and pervert." Yukino said with gritted teeth.

All I heard was Yang Nai laughing and saying, "You can keep scolding me, I love to hear it."

Xueno's expression quickly calmed down and she said, "Since your goal has been achieved, shouldn't you leave here now?"

Please get out of here nicely.

But Yang No shook her head and said, "Even Yukinoshita Kagerou can stay the night here, why should I go back? I can also flirt with Hikigaya Hachiman. Little Yukino, are you willing to kick me out? I am your biological sister from the same father and mother!"

Xue Nai said two words with certainty: "I am willing to give it up."

Yang No laughed again: "Tsundere Yukino is so cute. It's obvious that the one you love most in your heart is onee-sama."

Yukino glanced at her as if to say, there's something wrong with your brain.

You are very good at deceiving yourself and others.

But Yang No was prepared, and whispered, "Xue No, how about you take a look at what's in the refrigerator?"

Xueno was confused, but seeing that Yangno looked calm, she walked to the refrigerator and opened it, then she was surprised.

The refrigerator was not filled with anything, but was missing a lot of things. After all, it was New Year's Eve this year, and she had prepared a lot of meat and vegetable ingredients in the refrigerator in advance, but now the refrigerator was empty.

Xue No couldn't help but ask angrily: "Where are the things in the refrigerator?"

Yang No said: "I threw them all away. Haha, Yukino, you don't want to spend the New Year's Eve starving with Hikigaya Hachiman, that's so pitiful."

Yukino's eyebrows darkened, and she walked to Yangno's side, looking like she was ready to take action at any time.

Yang Nai said calmly: "But it doesn't matter. I have already contacted a familiar private chef to help us make a temporary New Year's Eve dinner."

Yukino said calmly, "The condition is that you stay here overnight, right?"

Yang Nai immediately showed a pitiful expression: "Xiao Xue Nai, don't be so heartless. You stay here with your man to eat and drink delicious food, and leave me and that old woman in the ancestral house alone. It's too lonely."

Yukino didn't say anything for a moment.

Seeing that Yukino was a little shaken, Yang No continued, "Don't worry, I won't get in the way of you and Hikigaya Hachiman tonight. I can even give you a push."

Yukino gave her a cold look. Why did these words sound so familiar?

Finally, Yukino sighed and said, "Forget it, you won't make a difference."

There is already a Yangyan in front, and it is impossible for Yukino to really drive her sister back given her personality.

"Great!" Yang Nai, who had successfully negotiated, was so happy that she almost jumped up.

But Yukino remembered something and said, "By the way, you were the one knocking on the window with a stone outside just now, right?"

But Yang Nai said inexplicably: "What knock on the window? No, I came in when you went to the bathroom, and then hid under the sofa to give you a surprise."

Yukino looked at the empty glass window. Since it wasn't Haruno, then what was the knocking sound she heard in her dream?

Could it really be an illusion in a dream?

Hachiman and Yangyan got down the mountain smoothly. Even though they encountered a white fox, no other strange things such as ghosts or gods appeared.

At the foot of the mountain, he finally saw the group of believers who were setting off fireworks. There were about a dozen of them, and they were holding brooms in their hands, as if they had just cleaned up the remaining traces of the fireworks.

Yang Yan waved his hand and said, "You can go back now."

The believers straightened their backs and nodded heavily: "Yes, Master."

Hachiman saw that these people were dressed very simply, not wearing the uniform clothing of the Sonsei sect, probably because they were worried that people would think they were doing some religious activities. After all, the opposite side was the Shinshoji Temple, and if you did this in front of someone else's house, it would be easy for people to think you were provoking.

Hachiman felt that Yangyan was a bit unreliable. He brought a group of people over to set off fireworks, and then sent them back directly. He didn't consider other people's feelings at all.

So Hachiman spoke on behalf of Kagero: "Thank you for your hard work tonight."

The believers looked at Hachiman in confusion. These ordinary believers still did not recognize Hachiman.

Yang Nai said with a smile: "This is my sister's husband, that is, my brother-in-law. What he says is equivalent to what I say."

The believers understood and quickly waved their hands to say, "Sir, we are not tired and are happy to do what we can for you. If it weren't for the Zunxing Sect and the Lord taking us in, we would still be wandering outside. Anyway, we are all lonely without family. With so many people coming together to help the Lord, it doesn't seem so lonely."

A middle-aged man with missing teeth spoke for everyone.

Most of the followers of Zunxing Sect are marginalized people in society who are desperate about life and ignored by everyone. They are not necessarily old, but most of them have no jobs, no family, and even if they die, no one may know about it. They are people who are rejected by the sick and oppressive mainstream society in Japan.

After Yangyan and Yukino took over the Zunxing Sect, they began to accept these people, first providing a stable living environment, psychological counseling and guidance, and then providing job opportunities so that they could improve themselves.

Xueno spent a lot of thought on the working atmosphere and living environment of the believers, making the entire Zunxing Sect deliberately break away from the mainstream atmosphere, abolishing the rules of seniority, and strictly prohibiting discrimination and behaviors such as seniors suppressing juniors.

The believers, who had already suffered greatly, felt unprecedented relief within the Zunxing Sect.

It turns out that as long as you work hard, you will be rewarded accordingly.

It turns out that there is a work environment where you won’t be beaten or bullied at will.

Xueno only created a normal working environment, but for these people, it was already a paradise.

The mainstream of neon is so depressing and perverted.

In addition to still emphasizing the absolute authority of the leader for centralized decision-making, the Zunxing Sect's operating model is very different from the era of Yukino's father, which relied on exploiting the value of the believers' families to plunder wealth and rights. It can even be said that it has become a landlord-capital group with public welfare attributes in the shell of religion.

After the reform, the influence of Zunxing Sect in Chiba and several surrounding counties gradually increased, and it entered the political arena with a more moderate face.

Even now within the Zunxing Sect, at the strong request of the believers, the facilities within the sect are gradually tending to replace social public facilities, such as the sect's kindergartens, schools, hospitals and the points supermarket that can be exchanged for daily necessities and a small number of luxury goods. The points will be paid out together with wages.

Yukino didn't know whether this tendency was good or bad. After discussing it with Hachiman, she finally decided to let it develop.

The believers in front of Hachiman and Yangyan have long been accustomed to the lifestyle of relying on Zunxing Sect, which is a complex mixture of religious beliefs, personal interests, spiritual comfort, etc. Therefore, the prestige of Yangyan, the leader, is extremely high for them.

When Hachiman heard what the toothless uncle said, he smiled and said, "I have called a car to take you back to the religious center. The leader has prepared a New Year's Eve dinner for you, so you can spend the New Year together."

Yangyan glanced at Hachiman. She was not prepared, but she also knew that this was Hachiman's intention.

Compared to giving them material rewards such as money, perhaps this kind of reward is more in line with their wishes.

Not long after, the car that Hachiman called for arrived, and the two watched the believers leave.

Hachiman felt somewhat touched as he watched the believers wave goodbye enthusiastically.

Yang Yan said softly: "That's great, brother-in-law, our efforts have not been in vain."

After that, she gently leaned her head on Hachiman's shoulder.

He nodded softly. In fact, his original intention was very simple. He just wanted the world to be a little better, so he would make efforts within his ability.

The Zunxing Sect was just a small attempt by him and Yukino, just like when he took in those divine girls as hosts.

Hachiman didn't let his emotions dwell for too long and said, "Let's go, we're going back too. Yukino should be preparing dinner on the mountain."

Yang Yan also laughed: "I want my brother-in-law to carry me up."

Hachiman glanced at her and said, "Why don't you carry me up there?"

Yang Yan pouted and said, "But I'm a girl."

Is she a weak woman with both A strength and speed?

Hachiman smiled and said, "But men and women are equal now."

Yang Yan thought about it and said, "It seems to make sense."

Then Yang Yan bent his legs and took a horse stance, saying, "Brother-in-law, come up. I'll carry you up."

Hachiman opened his mouth and said, "Are you serious?"

*

When Yukino heard the doorbell and opened the door, she found her sister, panting, standing at the door with her man on her back.

Xueno felt a little puzzled: "What are you doing?"

Although Yang Yan was very tired, he grinned and said, "I am feeling the weight of carrying my sister's life."

“???” Yukino’s head was full of question marks.

Then I heard Yukinoshita Haruno's voice: "Wow, you guys are having so much fun."

When Yang Yan heard the woman's voice, he immediately showed all his thorns like a vigilant hedgehog.

"Sister Yukino, why is this woman here?"

Yukino did not hide it and told the two of them about how Haruno had scared her.

Kagero and Hachiman were not very surprised. After all, in their hearts, Yukinoshita Haruno was such a person.

However, Yang Yan still said angrily: "It turns out that you are the woman who pretended to be a ghost to scare me."

Yangyan has already determined that Yang No is the female ghost who scared her. With a criminal record and a motive, she is the perfect candidate for being annoying.

But Yang Nai frowned slightly and said, "What do you mean by dressing up as a female ghost to scare you? You should look at yourself in the mirror. How proud do you think you are of me for spending so much effort on you? What's more, the female ghost you are talking about is wearing a white kimono. Does it have anything to do with my current outfit?"

Now Yang No is still wearing her favorite vest and boots, which looks cool and handsome, but does not hinder her feminine charm at all. I just don’t know if she is cold.

Yangyan said with a straight face: "You must have changed your clothes. After scaring me, you come to scare Sister Yukino again."

Yang Nai rolled her eyes and said, "You're crazy."

After saying that, Yang Noi ignored her and just sat on the sofa playing with her phone.

Seeing this, Yukino said to Hachiman, "Hachiman-kun, come and help me make dinner."

In the end, Yukino decided not to let Haruno prepare a dinner and insisted on cooking it herself after finding the ingredients.

Hachiman looked at the brand new kitchen utensils, picked up the pot, and saw that Yukino had already occupied the sink. After thinking for a while, he took a rag and went outside, using the snow on the ground to wipe the pot. He could also hear the quarrel between the sisters Haruno and Kagero from inside.

Not far from the cabin was a dense forest. Hachiman looked up and seemed to see a white figure waiting there. Then he blinked, and the white figure disappeared into the world again.

Chapter 192: Misery

Hachiman wiped the pot clean with snow, then walked in thoughtfully and placed the pot on the stove.

Seeing that Hachiman seemed to be thinking about something, Yukino asked, "What happened?"

Hachiman said, "I just saw a white figure outside and thought it was a bit strange."

Yang Yan, who had sharp ears, jumped out immediately and said to the two of them: "Look, now my brother-in-law has seen it too, I said there must be something dirty around here."

Hachiman smiled and said, "I don't even know if I am seeing things."

Yang Yan quickly shook his head: "I didn't see it wrong, I also saw a figure with long hair and a white kimono."

Xue No, who was standing next to her, said calmly, "It's also possible that my sister was just trying to scare you."

Yang No, who was sitting on the sofa, complained, "Xue No, it's so immoral for you to wrongly accuse me like this. I was just sitting here without moving from beginning to end. And who is so crazy that he would walk out on the snow in a thin kimono in the freezing cold to scare people?"

Then, she smiled maliciously again: "Who knows, maybe you really encountered a ghost."

Seeing Yang Yan's face turn even paler, Hachiman said, "Stop, stop, hurry up and cook, don't talk about whether there is any or not. Besides, there are so many of us here, and the Yang energy is so strong. If any ghost dares to show up, I will kill it."

After hearing what Hachiman said, Yang Yan's expression improved a little.

In the kitchen, Hachiman and Yukino were skillfully preparing the New Year's Eve dinner, and Yukino had already prepared the menu. Although there were two more people eating rice, Yukino already had more than enough ingredients in the refrigerator for a whole meal, so now she just had to make a few more dishes.

Even though Hachiman had cooked with Miku before, the chemistry between him and Yukino was unmatched. Their division of labor was extremely smooth, and their fluid movements even gave one the thrill of watching a circus.

Before we knew it, an hour had passed, the sky gradually darkened, all the dishes had been served, and the house was filled with the aroma of hot food.
