A group of people traveled through a strange world, and I was the only one who was not a refugee.

Hearing this, Fujiwara Chika knew she couldn't escape today, so she simply closed her eyes with a red face.

I thought with a heavy heart - since I can't resist, I can only enjoy it.

The next moment, she realized that she was being held and turned around, and then let go.

With her hands gently resting on the desk in front of her, she opened her eyes in confusion and looked back at the smiling man.

His words made her face turn red instantly.

"do it yourself."

…………

at dusk.

At this time, almost everyone had returned, including Snow Mother, who lived in the cottage in the courtyard.

But the three ladies were not idle today, because Yuigahama Asuna offered to be responsible for cooking dinner today, so Yuki's mother and Sawamura Sayuri helped out.

"Where is the real master?"

Yukinoshita Haruno sat on the sofa, kneading her long legs with her hands.

Today is Sunday and she didn't have to go to work, but there was an emergency case in her jurisdiction, so she went there with her sister.

Fortunately, the matter was not as difficult as imagined, it was just a catastrophic-level weirdness.

"We should be studying how to make puppets upstairs."

Yumiko Miura responded that she felt she had become increasingly lazier recently and sometimes even didn't want to talk much.

Fortunately, my lower abdomen is still flat and has not grown so quickly.

"Didn't Master Shin take Nino and Komachi out in the afternoon? Are they back already?"

Nakano Yotsuba, who was sitting cross-legged on the sofa, asked in confusion.

"I got back about an hour ago. Nino and Komachi are taking a shower in the bathroom."

Mai Sakurajima looked at the time. So much time had passed and Fujiwara Chika hadn't come down yet. She could tell what had happened just by using her fingers.

But there is nothing much to say about this kind of thing. If it were her, she wouldn't want others to discuss it.

"Everyone is here?"

A calm questioning voice came from behind.

All the girls turned their heads to look.

Hayasaka Ai, who was dressed like a young nobleman, and Shinomiya Kaguya, who was dressed like a young noblewoman, came back from outside.

"Ai, you and Kaguya..." Kato Megumi was very curious.

Of course Hayasaka Ai knew what she meant, and it wasn't something shameful, so she just said it directly.

"In early January every year, the government audits each store. Although the pharmacy has just opened, it still has to pay taxes."

"I've been busy with this matter most of the day." Kaguya Shinomiya continued.

"If I remember correctly, didn't Xiao Ai say that the pharmacy is still losing money?" Eriri Sawamura couldn't help but ask.

The maid nodded first, then shook her head: "It's mainly because we bought too many wholesale materials and semi-finished products. In fact, we haven't made much loss."

The main reason is that the pharmacy is located in a good geographical location, and the drug pricing is in the lower range of the market price, so it is easy to attract a group of customers.

“As long as I don’t lose money.”

"If that's the case, won't Xiao Ai'ai soon become the richest woman in Kyoto?"

"…It's all the real master's money. I'm just a maid."

The girls had already started the conversation and were ready to continue until it was time for dinner.

"Da da da……"

The sound of heels hitting the ground was crisp but somewhat weak, coming from far away.

Turning around, the women saw Fujiwara Chika with a normal expression appear in their sight.

"Hello, Xiao Ai and Kaguya, you are back."

Fujiwara Chika greeted her with a smile, which made Sakurajima Mai feel that it was not like she had just been bullied.

But except for a few women who didn't think much about it, everyone else was searching for anything unusual on her body.

After a while, Hayasaka Ai and Shinomiya Kaguya's eyes were fixed on her pair of white little feet.

Although it is normal for the white soles of the feet to turn red when wearing high-heeled sandals, this seems a bit too red.

The Yukinoshita sisters noticed that there were some wrinkles on the buttons on her chest...

Fujiwara Chika thought that women were really scary. She felt like she was being scanned by X-rays and something felt wrong all over her body.

She calmly changed the subject: "Xiao Ai, Master Zhen told me that if you come back, go upstairs."

"?"

"They said they were going to build a swimming pool and expand on the small houses in the mansion."

"By the way, there's one more thing..."

413. The maid is more dependent, so shameful~

At first, Hayasaka Ai and others were a little confused.

Akita had already mentioned the idea of ​​building a swimming pool a long time ago, so there was nothing strange about it.

But there seems to be no need to expand the small house in the courtyard. After all, the villa they live in now is big enough.

If one or two more people were allocated to each bedroom, the house could accommodate more than a dozen people, and could even be expanded to three or four floors.

But after Fujiwara Chika finished speaking, and her elder sister and younger sister also traveled through time, the girls suddenly understood.

According to the current trend, time travelers are still coming to this world in an endless stream, and no one knows how many more people will travel through time in the future.

Among them might be their relatives, and it seems normal for adults to have such thoughts.

Thinking of this, Hayasaka Ai nodded, stood up and walked upstairs.

After a while, she came outside the study.

Looking at Akita Makoto who was standing on the balcony and seemed to be admiring the sunset, she knocked on the study door three times.

"Master Shin, Chika said you wanted to see me for something."

"Well, just come in, little Ai-ni."

"Hi~"

Hayasaka Ai walked up to him and stopped, following his gaze, her eyes falling on the courtyard of her home that was now full of life.

It is now January 129, Year 1 of this world's Supernatural Calendar.

A week has passed since winter began, and all kinds of tender green branches have broken through the soil. Even without the vitality of the life-and-death grass, they are still growing rapidly.

Before long, the tree trunks that have lost their leaves will be covered with green leaves again, and all kinds of flowers will bloom.

Just as Hayasaka Ai was thinking about when to start weeding, Akita Shin turned his head and looked at her.

As if feeling somewhat helpless, she raised her hand and rubbed her beautiful and smooth blonde hair.

"Why are you dressed like this again?"

"As a maid, it is not appropriate for me to show up in public so often."

The maid replied in this way with a poker face, as if her personality was really rigid and conservative.

But Akita Makoto, who has played role-playing games with her several times, doesn't think so.

"What kind of outdated and decadent feudal ideas are these?"

"Women should have female virtues."

Seeing that the maid was so stubborn, Akita felt helpless and just started to attack directly.

Don't get me wrong, it's to untie her noble-looking look.

Hayasaka Ai did not resist and just stood there.

But there was a slight change in her expression, and her eyes were full of resentment, as if she was unhappy that he had taken off her disguise.

"It's much more pleasing to the eye."

After spending a while and combing her beautiful golden hair with the same hand, Akita nodded with satisfaction.

Hayasaka Ai looked at him and said nothing.

Stand on tiptoes slightly, raise your head, and then raise your hands.

Akita Makoto curled his lips and picked up the petite and cute maid.

Her feet, wearing indoor shoes, were crossed and hooked behind his waist.

"You are such a great man."

"what happened?"

"Then I'm welcome~"

After saying that, she smoothed the hair beside her ears.

She lowered her head and grabbed his neck with her pink lips.

As for the agreement to grow strawberries, ever since she mentioned it, she has never missed a day unless Akita is really not at home.

Akita had already gotten used to it and just smiled.

However, this time seemed to be different from the past. Before ten seconds had passed, the maid opened her mouth and said with a slightly frowned brow:

"The scent of Qianhua's perfume."

"So you called me here, sir, because you are not satisfied?"

"Master, you are indeed a lustful monster."

Akita almost choked. You know, except in private, she rarely said such bold and explicit words.

Well...he and she are together in private now, and there is no third person in the study.

"Xiao Ai, are you naughty again?"

Akita Makoto pretended to be displeased, raised his hand and then dropped it.

With a "pop" sound, Hayasaka Ai's face became even redder.

"Then sir, are you going to punish me?" She raised her head, her watery eyes full of tears.

According to the normal plot development, the male owner would be furious and severely teach the disobedient maid a lesson, letting her know who is the master of the house...

But it’s almost time for dinner and there’s still business to discuss.

Akita Shin could only cough lightly and said, "Forget it this time, it won't happen again."

Hearing this, the maid curled her lips.

Obviously, he was happy to be taught a lesson, but who made his master enter the sage mode after being seduced by the Thousand Flower Enchanter?

"Didn't you say you wanted to build a swimming pool for your enjoyment and expand the house?"

"It's not about enjoying yourself. I'm afraid you'll get heat stroke when summer comes."

"Hey, hey, hey--it's because they're afraid we'll get a heat stroke."

Seeing the maid's expression that said "You're right, but I don't believe it", Akita was really angry that his good intentions were misinterpreted.

As a punishment, I'll let the increasingly rebellious maid hang on my body...

Since I was standing on the balcony on the second floor, I couldn't see the whole picture.

Akita Makoto carried her to the rooftop and discussed how to renovate the mansion.

Hayasaka Ai felt that being held by him, the face-to-face position was very strange.

She simply stretched her body to be more flexible so that he could carry her on his back.

Her chin rested on his shoulder, and she became sluggish.

Hayasaka Ai would occasionally say "hmm" softly to show that she was listening to him.
