Sister Toosaka Rin

"I'm going to change my clothes, please go out and stay away for a while."

Not long after, Yukinoshita Yukino changed into her usual JK uniform, a white shirt, a red bow tie, a plaid pleated skirt, and black over-the-knee socks.

After washing up, Yukinoshita Yukino sat at the dining table and ate the breakfast prepared by Tousaka Kiyoshi while asking, "Where are we going later?"

Tousaka Kiyoshi shook his index finger: "It's a secret. You'll know when we get to our destination."

Yukinoshita Yukino whispered softly, "Pretending to be mysterious."

After going out, Yukinoshita Yukino was pulled by Toosaka Kiyoshi to sit in the back seat of the black business car parked at the door.

Yukinoshita Yukino asked in confusion again: "Where are we going? There's even a special car coming to pick us up?"

Instead of answering, Tousaka Kiyoshi took out a panda eye mask and put it on her despite Yukinoshita Yukino's slight resistance.

After putting it on, Tousaka Kiyoshi said, "Yukino, you look really cute right now. Is it okay for me to take a few pictures?"

Yukinoshita Yukino nodded: "If you want to take the picture, just take it, but don't show it to other people."

"Thank you Yukino."

Then the sound of shutter clicks was heard in the car.

While Tousaka Kiyoshi was taking pictures, Yukinoshita Yukino asked for the third time, "Where are we going? It's so secretive, we can't even look at it."

"Of course you can't see the surprise in advance."

At this time, Yukinoshita Yukino also understood that Toosaka Kiyoshi spent so much money just to prepare this surprise for her, and she had misunderstood him before.

But is there anything special about this reincarnation?

This is my forty-fourth reincarnation, and my birthday is indeed in this month.

But is it necessary to have such a grand birthday surprise? Wouldn't it be better to have a small party at home?

The vehicle had been driving for more than an hour, and Yukinoshita Yukino felt that they were about to drive out of the city.

"You're not going to sell me out?"

"How can I bear to sell such a lovely girlfriend?"

Ten minutes later, Yukinoshita Yukino noticed that the vehicle had stopped.

She was then helped out of the car by Kiyoshi Toosaka and carried on his back.

After lying on Toosaka Kiyoshi's back for more than ten minutes, Yukinoshita Yukino finally stood on the ground again.

Toosaka Kiyoshi's voice sounded nearby.

"You can take off the blindfold now."

Chapter 148 What is an Adult?

Yukinoshita Yukino slowly took off her blindfold, looked around, and found herself in a wooden room. Judging from the architectural style, it looked like a room in a shrine.

In front of her was a stand covered by a red curtain. It seemed that the surprise was on the stand.

Yukinoshita Yukino pulled off the red curtain on the stand, revealing three big words on it: Coming of Age Ceremony.

Before Yukinoshita Yukino could react to what this meant, Toosaka Kiyoshi opened the cabinet next to her with a "rustle".

Yukinoshita Yukino looked in the direction of the sound and saw several kimonos of different colors neatly arranged in the cabinet.

Tousaka Kiyoshi came to Yukinoshita Yukino and said, "Yukino, this is the forty-fourth month we have spent in this world. Calculating the time, you will be twenty years old soon, Yukino.

"According to tradition, every girl has to hold a coming-of-age ceremony after she turns 20, which represents her official entry into the adult world."

"You don't have the memory of the past, so you definitely won't remember this. But I've been thinking about holding this coming-of-age ceremony for you personally for several months."

"I spent a lot of money to rent this shrine, and also invited Xiaoyan to come and help with the preparations. Including the preparation time, the total rental period was one week, and most of the money I took was used to pay the rent."

"Now, in this shrine, there are only you, me and Homura. No one will come to disturb this matter."

"It's a pity that uncle, aunt and sister Yang Nai are not here. But there is nothing I can do about it. Let me act as your family member for the time being."

Yukinoshita Yukino stared at everything in front of her in a daze, her heart filled with emotion.

It turns out that when he was busy, he even remembered this kind of thing. It turns out that he spent money on this kind of thing. It turns out that he was busy with this kind of thing every day when he went out...

The sudden feeling of being touched and the guilt for misunderstanding Toosaka Kiyoshi left Yukinoshita Yukino speechless for a long time.

Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a long time, Tousaka Kiyoshi asked in confusion, "Yukino, don't you like it?"

Yukinoshita Yukino shook her head, tears glistening in her eyes: "No, I like it very much, thank you, thank you."

Toosaka Kiyoshi breathed a sigh of relief: "Why would we say thank you to each other? As long as you like it, that's good. Hurry up and choose a kimono to wear. The coming-of-age ceremony will be incomplete without a kimono."

Yukinoshita Yukino nodded slightly, then with a slightly red face, she actually started to unbutton her clothes in front of Toosaka Kiyoshi.

Toosaka Qingxin panicked and said quickly: "Then Yukino, you change your clothes first, I'll go out and wait."

As soon as he took a step, his wrist was held by Yukinoshita Yukino. The girl asked with a ruddy face: "It's a bit troublesome to put on the kimono. Can you stay and help me?"

The blood in Toosaka Kiyoshi's heart suddenly surged, his head felt hot, and his heart beat faster.

"Yes, sure, but are you sure?"

He remained calm when teasing Homura Akemi, but suddenly became innocent when facing Yukinoshita Yukino.

Yukinoshita Yukino also felt as if her head was cooked, and nodded in a daze.

"Ah."

……

In the end, Yukinoshita Yukino chose a kimono with purple patterns, paired with a pure white haori on the outside, a pink belt around the waist, and a white flower-shaped hair accessory on her head.

After helping Yukinoshita Yukino put on the clothes with a blushing face and a beating heart, Toosaka Kiyoshi pushed Yukinoshita Yukino to the mirror.

"You have a great aesthetic sense, Yukino."

Yukinoshita Yukino looked at herself in the mirror and smiled faintly.

"When you were helping me put on my clothes just now, your hands seemed a little dishonest."

"This, this is all because Yukino is so cute, how could I resist?"

"Well, I'm not going to blame you."

"Ahem, now that we've changed our clothes, let's get out quickly."

Kiyoshi Toosaka walked out quickly, and after Yukinoshita Yukino followed him, she took the initiative to hold Kiyoshi Toosaka's hand.

When we arrived at the courtyard, Homura Akemi, wearing a shrine maiden uniform, was standing at the entrance waiting.

When Homura Akemi saw Tousaka Kiyoshi and the others leave, she immediately stepped forward and said, "Hello, guests."

Yukinoshita Yukino asked in confusion: "Why are you dressed like this?"

Kiyoshi Tousaka explained, "I gave the shrine maiden a week off, so Homura took on the role of guide for us to visit the shrine. She will also be the one to preside over your coming-of-age ceremony."

Yukinoshita Yukino nodded to show her understanding: "Akami Homura-san, I'm sorry to bother you today."

Homura Akemi shook her head: "It's no trouble. The main hall of the shrine is here. Please follow me."

The three of them walked into the main hall, and Yukinoshita Yukino discovered that this place had been carefully decorated and had a festive atmosphere.

At this time, Homura Akemi took small steps to the statue and said, "Please pay your respects to the deity first."

Yukinoshita Yukino and Tousaka Kiyoshi looked at each other, then held hands and walked to the statue.

After the worship was over, Homura Akemi asked in a low voice: "Senior, are we going to start?"

Tousaka Qing nodded: "Let's start."

Homura Akemi cleared her throat. "In this beautiful and sacred shrine, we gather together to witness and celebrate Yukinoshita Yukino's coming of age. May the gods bless you."

As soon as she finished speaking, Homura Akemi fell silent. After waiting for a while, Kiyoshi Tōsaka finally couldn't help but asked in confusion: "Go on, what's wrong?"

Homura Akemi looked a little embarrassed: "I forgot the lyrics..."

Tousaka Kiyoshi: “…”

Forget it, he is also responsible for the fact that Homura Akemi forgot the lyrics. After all, he wrote the lyrics and had written several versions. This version was only finalized yesterday and time was tight, so it's normal that Homura Akemi didn't remember them.

"Just say a few words then."

As Yukinoshita Yukino listened to the conversation between the two, the smile on her face grew even wider.

Homura Akemi nodded, thought for a moment, and then said, "Senior Yukino, you have gone through your childhood and adolescence, and met a lover like Senior Toosaka. I hope that under the protection of the gods, you can protect and cherish each other and start a new chapter in your life."

"As a miko, I have a few words to say to you."

"Every relationship is hard-earned. I hope you can cherish each other, cherish love, tolerate each other's shortcomings, and remind yourself not to forget your original intention."

"I hope you will maintain your trust in each other, always be honest with each other, take responsibility for each other, support each other, and complement each other."

丠"I hope you can create a happy and harmonious family..."

"Please wait a moment." Yukinoshita Yukino finally couldn't help but speak, "This is not a speech for a coming-of-age ceremony, this is a speech for a wedding!"

Homura Akemi asked tentatively: "Then, shall I think of another passage?"

"There's really no need for this." Yukinoshita Yukino quickly stopped her, "Let's just move on to the next step!"

Having said that, Yukinoshita Yukino took the initiative to kneel down on the cushion in front of the statue.

Upon seeing this, Homura Akemi quickly turned around and handed a hairpin beside her to Kiyoshi Toosaka.

This step is called the Ji Li, also known as Jia Ji, which means that the girl's parents will tie her hair up and add a hairpin; changing the hairstyle means the end of her girlhood.

However, Yukinoshita Yukino's family is not around now, so this step can only be completed by Toosaka Kiyoshi on her behalf.

Kiyoshi Toosaka has practiced on Homura Akemi's head many times in the past two days, so he can be said to be very familiar with it.

However, when putting up Yukinoshita Yukino's hair, Tousaka Kiyoshi suddenly changed his mind, tied it into two ponytails and said, "Okay."

Yukinoshita Yukino stood up and looked at the mirror, and asked, "Is this all right?"

Kiyoshi Tousaka explained: "Yukino, you are already a magical girl. Your girlhood will never end. Why do you still need to put your hair up? I think twin tails suit you very well."

Yukinoshita Yukino looked around at herself in the mirror, and she already recognized Tousaka Kiyoshi's aesthetics in her heart. The corners of her mouth slightly raised and she said, "Okay, you have a point."

Afterwards, Yukinoshita Yukino drew another fortune for marriage at the shrine, and the shrine maiden in charge of interpreting the fortune was naturally Homura Akemi. Today she had several duties to perform.

After that, Yukinoshita Yukino and Toosaka Kiyoshi strolled around the shrine. Before leaving, Yukinoshita Yukino left her wish on the shrine's ema wall.

On the way back, Yukinoshita Yukino invited Homura Akemi to her home, saying that she wanted to thank her for her help that day, and Homura Akemi naturally agreed.

At night, Yukinoshita Yukino took the initiative to cook for once, and all the dishes on the table were cooked by her.

Before the meal, Yukinoshita Yukino said to Homura Akemi: "My cooking is not as good as his, so please don't be disgusted later."

Homura Akemi quickly shook her head: "How could it be..."

At this time, Tousaka Kiyoshi took out a bottle of wine and said, "Yukino, after today, you will be an adult. Do you want to try some wine?"

Yukinoshita Yukino frowned: "I heard that after drinking, the head will become dizzy. I don't like that state."

Toosaka Kiyoshi had already opened the bottle and started pouring the wine: "It's okay, just take a sip. You can dislike drinking in life, but it's a pity if you don't even taste the flavor of wine."

"Okay, I'll just take a small bite then."

Yukinoshita Yukino thought for a while and decided to try it.

Toosaka Kiyoya only poured her a few drops, mainly to let Yukinoshita Yukino taste it.

After the coming-of-age ceremony, I always try things that were not allowed before, such as drinking alcohol, and...

After dinner, Homura Akemi stayed at home at the invitation of Yukinoshita Yukino.

Kiyoshi Toosaka learned from his previous lesson. In order to prevent such a thing from happening again and to prevent himself from being kicked out of the house, he chose to rent a house with three bedrooms.

Late at night, Toosaka Kiyoshi lay in his bed, unable to fall asleep for a long time.

Judging from Yukino's attitude, it seems that she wants Homura Akemi to live here for a long time, and Yukino has no intention of driving him out.

In other words, he would be living with the two of them for a period of time, which was something he had never dared to think about before.

This reincarnation was also the closest he had ever been to convincing Yukino.

Ask yourself, is he satisfied with the status quo?

No.

The reason why we have reached this point is because of the coming-of-age ceremony. There will never be such an opportunity again.
