"Dad~" Sayuri said softly.
"Okay, I'll take Sayuri to the festival in a couple of days to eat fried noodles, apple candy and goldfish."
Hachiman touched her head and said that tomorrow would be Minamoto no Raikou's debut party, so he couldn't be in two places at once.
Sayuri jumped around happily, then stretched out her hand again, and said with eyes as bright as the silver moon in the sky, "It's a deal."
He stretched out his hand and linked Sayuri's fingers together: "If you break the contract, you will have to swallow a thousand needles."
Seeing that Ying Lili had a complicated and relieved expression on her face, he put his hands on his hips and said, "Why, Ai Li also wants to eat fried noodles, apple candy and goldfish. Unfortunately, there is no portion for you, but we are short of someone to carry things."
The unscrupulous capitalists showed their black fangs.
Eriri curled her lips and pushed Sayuri back to the pavilion to sit down and eat Tsukimi dumplings. Yukinoshita Kiyoyuki was very thoughtful in her preparations for this kind of festival.
To put it in today's terms, it means a full sense of ritual.
Hachiman saw Yukino standing next to him, pouting and not wanting to talk, so he flicked her forehead slowly: "You have to play the role of a mother during the festival, do you have to be jealous of your daughter?"
Yukino rolled her eyes: "Isn't mom Yui? Don't think I don't know."
She gently scratched the other person's nose, and Hachiman laughed it off to confuse the subject and returned to the stone pavilion.
The process is complicated and requires special bamboo to set up the flowing noodles. There are Tsukimi dango, Mizu Shingen mochi, and five-colored brocade boxes filled with various daifuku and other sweets. Hachiman got a little sick of them after trying a few of them. The lighter flowing noodles are more suitable for him.
But who can blame him since everyone here is a woman except him? The desserts are very popular. What makes Tuanzi jealous the most is that the women under Yukinoshita (Fujiwara genes?) have a physique that allows them to eat anything without getting fat.
The one who suffered the most was Sayuri. It was said that at noon, Yang Nai took her out to eat braised pork elbow, but the child did not know how to restrain herself and ate half of the tender, fragrant and plump pork elbow in one breath. As a result, she started to have indigestion in the afternoon. It was only after Qingxue asked the servants to make sour citrus tea to help with indigestion that she felt better, and she also scolded Yang Nai.
As for whether the eldest daughter listened, the answer is probably no.
So now Sayuri can only look at the desserts miserably but cannot eat them. The bad woman Yang Nai even deliberately annoys her and tastes the desserts in turn in front of her with relish.
After eating two cups of instant noodles, Yukinoshita Kiyoyuki wiped her mouth and looked at the lively scene, feeling a sense of dreamy satisfaction in her heart.
However, the news from Hachiman that the girl who called herself Yukinoshita Kagero made her vaguely worried.
But now is not the time to worry about this. Tomorrow's events will be a challenge for the Yukinoshita family.
"I just mentioned two things. The first one is that your aunt is staying here temporarily. The second one is that the Crown Princess invites our Yukinoshita family to attend the dinner she is hosting tomorrow. Yukino, you have to come back tomorrow. At this time, it is not appropriate for you to attend as a subordinate of the Shinomiya family. The same goes for Haruno. There is no point in pretending to break out now. You sisters must all be here tomorrow."
Before establishing the Gong family, Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess had to meet and greet the local tyrants in Chiba. Naturally, she would not miss the Yukinoshita family, which had the momentum to become the number one family in Chiba in the past two years.
"What about you, Xiangzi?" Qingxue asked.
"Don't worry about me. With my relationship with His Highness, I don't need an invitation."
Murasaki Shikibu seemed to be expressing a certain stance, causing Kiyoyuki to glare at her, seemingly dissatisfied with her statement.
But Ziying ignored her sister and looked at Hachiman with interest, as if she knew some interesting inside story.
Qingxue frowned slightly, and then said, "Also, the names on the invitation are only mine and your sisters'. Hachiman's name is not on it."
Yukino couldn't help but raise her brows slightly. Although Hachiman was a son-in-law, he was at least the spokesperson for Yukinoshita nominated by his mother. The previous competitions for city councilors and the current county councilors have proved this point. It should be impossible to miss it. This would be too disrespectful to the Yukinoshita family.
Of course, this is Yukino's opinion, but in Kiyoyuki's eyes, this is a provocation: Hikigaya Hachiman is not one of you Yukinoshita's people.
In Qingxue's eyes, this letter looked more like a challenge than an invitation.
Although he had never met him in person, he already knew about his relationship with the Crown Princess from Hachiman. He couldn't help but complain in his heart about how this money could irritate women so much that the Crown Princess even went to Chiba in person to collect the debt!
However, do you really think that her Yukinoshita family is vegetarian?
"Yukino! Keep an eye on Hachiman today. Don't let him leave your side within five meters."
"Huh? Hmm."
Qingxue looked at her daughter, who was still confused, and felt a little disappointed.
But she wanted to see what tricks that vixen could come up with!
Chapter 69: The Eve of the Great Battle
Fast forward to the evening of the next day, when Hachiman drove a Crown car and took the Yukinoshita sisters to a hotel in the new city center of Makuhari. Perhaps in order to avoid the influence of the Yukinoshita family, the hotel they chose had nothing to do with the Yukino family's business. Just a few sparks made Hachiman smell the scent of war tonight.
Qingxue said that she still had things to deal with, so she asked the three young people to go first. However, no matter how Hachiman looked at it, it seemed that she asked Yukino to go and test the situation first, and then she would be the last to appear.
A mother who lets her daughter be cannon fodder is a scumbag.
But what surprised him was that Murasaki Shikibu was nowhere to be seen early this morning.
"Has our family had a rift with Lord Minamoto no Raikou in the past? Why is mother so wary?"
Yukino, wearing a pure white shoulder-length gown with gold thread, looked even more beautiful and elegant today. Her hair was tied into a ponytail with a thin strand of silk, which made her look fresh and pretty. With her exquisite appearance, it seemed that she was not going to watch the ceremony today, but to visit the venue.
In fact, Yukino also felt that this dress would easily steal the spotlight and make the host unhappy. After all, her beauty was an objective fact.
However, her mother insisted on letting her wear this outfit, which made Yukino feel helpless.
"Sa, why not ask the magical Hachiman?"
Yang No was laughing and half lying in the back seat, fanning the fire. Unlike Yukino who was dressed to show off her feminine charm, Yang No was wearing exactly the same outfit as Hachiman, a black suit.
It was as if she was telling the outside world that the men in the Yukinoshita family were not just Hachiman, who married into the family.
But it was only natural that she was dressed the same as him. After all, the suit she was wearing was temporarily taken from his closet.
MD, how can this woman be so cool and seductive at the same time.
"I don't know, don't ask me, I'm just a driver passing by."
Practice non-violence and non-cooperation, and don't try to get anything out of him.
"Haha, Yukino, don't you think about it? The Crown Princess appeared in front of the world again during that time in Tokyo. That's such a coincidence~oh~"
Miss Yang Noi continued to add fuel to the fire, but there was some doubt in Xue Noi's eyes. No matter how capable this guy was at making trouble, could he be related to the Crown Princess?
This is too fantasy.
So in this magical world, no one believes Yang Noi, who always tells the truth, which makes her very sad.
After Hachiman parked the car, the three of them walked into the hotel together, but they met an unexpected person.
"Hayato...why does your face look like this?" Yang No said in surprise, but her hand rested on Hachiman's shoulder at the right time.
A hint of sadness flashed across Ye Shan's eyes, but he quickly returned to his usual frankness. He touched the scratches on his face, smiled bitterly, and didn't know where to start explaining.
"Because this guy fell in love with someone else's wife in Tokyo, so he killed the man's husband and took the wife and daughter away. As a result, Aunt Hayama got furious and beat him up like this."
So, Hachiman briefly explained.
"Hashita-kun, your explanation is a little too brief."
Well, it seems to be true though.
"Hey, you're still Hayato, you're so brave."
This guy with a distorted outlook on life actually gave a thumbs up after hearing what Hachiman said.
Hayato smiled, as if he and Haruno were just ordinary friends.
"In short, I will get married soon. Although I won't hold a wedding ceremony for now, I will set up a small banquet. Please be sure to attend."
"I won't go. You guys can do whatever you want." Yukino retorted coldly, not giving Ye Shan any face at all.
"Long time no see, Yukinoshita-san." But they are old classmates after all, and they have known each other since childhood, so he naturally knows what kind of personality Yukino has.
After a moment of silence, Ye Shan continued, "Miura-san will also be here for the interview tonight, and I will explain it to her in person."
"Yayama-kun, not everything can be resolved by simply talking it out. Don't you know how Yumiko treated you?!"
Suddenly, a voice that everyone was very familiar with came from behind Ye Shan, but compared to her usual soft voice, it was unusually angry at this moment.
"Yuigahama-san?"
"Yui, why are you here?"
Yuigahama Yui was seen wearing a burgundy off-shoulder long dress, which perfectly showed off her proud figure.
Hachiman rubbed his head and said, "Are you trying to get a full lineup for the class reunion today?"
He looked at Murasaki Shikibu, who was dressed in her usual purple OL dress, and walked slowly towards him behind Yui.
Ye Shan was still happy to see his old classmates whom he hadn't seen for a long time. After all, the reason why Yui was angry was also because of Yumiko.
"If I say I'll pay Yumiko, you'll probably be even angrier, Yuigahama-san, but I can't do two things at once like Hachiman-kun, so please understand that."
Ye Shan nodded to everyone and entered the venue alone.
Damn, what the hell do you mean? Why are you pulling my leg?
Yui turned away angrily, and Hachiman quickly comforted her: "Okay, okay, don't be angry. Next time I will beat up Ye Shan to vent your anger."
Yukino glanced at him and said, "Who are you fooling? It's as if everyone knows that you and that guy Ye Shan are in cahoots."
Don't think she doesn't know. Mom personally came forward to plead with Aunt Ye Shan. You can tell who is behind it with your toes.
"Don't get together with Ye Shan unless you have anything to do, or you might learn bad things from him."
Yui didn't want to playfully smile with Hachiman, so she glared at him and said.
??? Ms. Yui, your values are becoming more and more dangerous.
After comforting Yui for a while, he asked, "Why did you suddenly come here today?"
Yui let out a soft "ah" and then she remembered that she was mad at Ye Shan and had forgotten about it.
"Didn't Xiaoqi ask Ms. Fujiwara to tell me to get dressed and come over? Could it be a very public occasion like that? Well, then I'll go back first."
Yui said in a panic that she didn't want her relationship with Hachiman to be known to everyone and affect his political career.
But Hachiman took her hand and said, "What are you afraid of? Just treat it as seeing what upper class means tonight."
His tone was relaxed, as if he didn't care at all.
Yui looked at Yukino hesitantly, but unexpectedly, Yukino nodded. For some reason, she felt a little nervous and blushed.
"Don't worry about anything. Miss Yuigahama is also a guest specially invited by His Highness."
Murasaki Shikibu spoke gently, her calm demeanor reassuring.
This did cause some ripples in his heart. Although he knew that Lai Guang's mother would definitely not harm him, her thoughts were difficult to guess.
Therefore, a bunch of girls gathered around him for some reason. Although he was able to enter without any obstruction, he also attracted many envious or curious glances.
But soon, they met a brother and sister, and some sparks flew.
Shinomiya Yunying, who had stabbed him through, stood in front of him in a dignified manner, while Kaguya next to him pursed her lips slightly.
Chapter 70: Party leader Minamoto no Raikou VS Party leader Yukinoshita Kiyoyuki
Shinomiya Yunying stood in front of Hachiman and others. He looked thinner and it seemed that he had suffered a lot in the hospital.
However, Hachiman did not expect to be discharged from the hospital so quickly. Just when he thought that Shigong Yunying was going to cause trouble again, he saw the other party take the initiative to extend his hand, with a peaceful smile on his slightly pale face.
"Are you Mr. Hikigaya Hachiman from the Yukinoshita family? I have heard of you for a long time. My third son once mentioned you to me. I will take care of you in this county council election."
There was no trace of the sinisterness that he had during the confrontation on the road that day, nor was there that overly distorted expression. Combined with the good genes of the Sigong family, Sigong Yunying could be said to be a standard gentle and respectful son of a noble family at this moment.
Oh, that's interesting. Does this mean that we should pretend that what happened that day never happened?
If the opponent is a commoner who is inferior to himself, he will bare his bloody fangs and use all kinds of dirty off-field tricks and violent means to coerce him.
Once he confirmed that Hachiman had a background and status equal to his own, he would sheath his fangs, and everyone would fight on the stage based on their own skills, winning gloriously and losing brilliantly, showing the demeanor of the elegant and noble young man of the Shinomiya family.
The young man secretly praised in his heart that this kind of bitch was exactly what he wanted. He had underestimated the eldest son of the Shinomiya family before.
No wonder Sigong Shengshi described his third brother as having the eyes of an eagle and the back of a wolf.
Hachiman held out his hand. "I am the one who challenged your Shinomiya family beyond my capabilities, but I am very sorry that I have been so helpful to you, Hayasaka Ai, who jumped over from you. She has been very helpful to me in both the election and "life".
Shinomiya Kaguya looked at the two old silver coins with a humble and serious appearance. If she hadn't seen two men, one ruthless and the other cruel, on the road, she would have been fooled by their appearance.
Hachiman specifically mentioned Hayasaka Ai, and the wound on Shinomiya Yunying's abdomen began to ache again, and the smile on his face became a little stiff.
Then the young man whispered in his ear: "I cleaned the knife that stabbed into your chest, and then slowly helped Hayasaka Ai shave her left armpit hair. Her armpit trembled, and the expression on her face that was unwilling but unable to resist was so adorable."
So men know best how to hurt other men.
A hint of murderous intent flashed in Sigong Yunying's eyes. The corners of his mouth twitched, as if he was biting his tongue to control his expression, and soon he laughed.
"I heard that the Spencer mother and daughter who have been missing for a long time are now visiting the Yukinoshita family? This is really unexpected."
"I'm going to go back tonight and shave her right armpit hair as well."
Yui, who was not far away, was looking at the two men who were smiling peacefully while uttering harsh words, which was quite strange.
"Hey, Xiaoxue, is this what upper class means?"
