In this book, sons-in-law can be roughly divided into two types: normal sons-in-law and sons-in-law.

A normal son-in-law is to marry a daughter and recruit a son-in-law, which is ordinary, while a son-in-law and an adopted son are both sons-in-law and adopted sons, which are probably equivalent to the nature of the son-in-law, but there is a huge difference - the fundamental purpose of the existence of the son-in-law and adopted son is to inherit the family business, even if there is a son, the inheritance of the family business is usually the son-in-law and the adopted son in front.

This is not to say that the legal division of the estate, the book is generally inherited by will, even if the family is divided, it will not be divided, the main thing is to decide who will manage the family pillar industry and bear the family name, for example, a member of the Mitsui Foundation once publicly said, "I would rather have a daughter than a son, because with a daughter I can choose an excellent son" This kind of words, it can be seen that this custom is very popular, and it can avoid the biological son being too stupid to defeat the family - more than 80,000 people are adopted through legal procedures every year, of which 90% The above are adult males between the ages of 20 and 30, which is actually the result of this situation.

Mizueda's original plan was to find a son-in-law to raise a son, but unfortunately her daughter was "rebellious" and didn't want to listen to her arrangement at all, so she ran away from home under the guise of traveling, and her plan was stillborn, so she had no choice but to follow her daughter's plan, and she dated a man who was willing to live together, and finally Chihara Rin was selected, but unfortunately this social status was too high, and he didn't need to borrow the power of the White Horse family to succeed in his career, and he was quite beautiful, and he couldn't be a son-in-law, so she could only recruit him as a normal son-in-law.

If it is a son-in-law's adopted son, she is actually her son-in-law's "own mother", and she can be treated harshly, but the normal son-in-law's situation is different, which is equivalent to two families, and Chihara Rin doesn't have to look at her face, and even if she is dissatisfied, she can stay away.

If this situation really happened, she didn't have a trick, so she had to treat Rin Chihara as a serious guest, and she couldn't put the elder genealogy.

Really speaking, this is all the bastard's daughter, completely disobedient! But then she thought about it and her mind was stable, her daughter is not a good stubble, Chihara Rin people don't know her daughter well enough, in the future, there will be Chihara Rin people to suffer, not in front of you It's not bad!

Because when the guests are entertained, the welcome banquet is very formal, and the kaiseki cuisine and top-quality sake are taken out by the head of the family who is particularly busy during the Chinese New Year.

Chihara Rin also attached great importance to this meeting, and first sent a carefully prepared gift to show that he still had a lot of respect for the Hakuba family, and then accompanied the Hakuba couple to speak softly.

White Horse Zongzheng is quite supportive of his daughter's free love, and he doesn't care about the inheritance of the family business, he feels that he can't die for a while, so he is not in a hurry, and he is very happy to see Chihara Rin coming, and he pulls him to drink with him with a cup.

People are so enthusiastic, and the people of Chihara Rin will naturally not be hypocritical, and the same wine is dry, and it is also enjoyable for a while.

The amount of wine in Hakuba Zongzheng is so-so, but he can't stop drinking it, and it's a pity that he is too busy as a monk during the New Year's Festival, and he may not be able to take Chihara Rin to fish, and Chihara Rin also sighed a few times along with his words, expressing regret, but he felt that it was just right not to go - he didn't come to play with the old man.

The welcome banquet was eaten until it was dark, and the white horse Zongzheng drank a little high, and took Rin Chihara's hand and asked him to take good care of his baby daughter Ningzi, and Rin Chihara also spit out wine and promised that it was absolutely fine.

It's so difficult to find a wife who you like, of course, you have to treat it well, there's nothing to say!

Mizue found that her bad old man was starting to be out of tune, so she hurriedly asked him to rest, but Hakuba Zongzheng did not refuse, and finally took Chihara Rinto's hand and whispered: "Chihara, one day in the future you really make Ningzi angry...... Uh, it's just that she's really angry, and it's her mother's face, don't hesitate, run to Kyoto immediately, my old face is still a little useful, and it will definitely save your life. ”

Rin Chihara was a little unsure of why, but also confident, and promised quietly but seriously, "You don't have to worry, I won't make her angry." ”

Ning Zi's temper is not very easy to get angry, is it? She has a super docile personality and is also very smart, at most she occasionally expresses her dissatisfaction tactfully, but it is impossible to really get angry, let alone mention the question of whether she can save her life.

Baima Zongzheng did drink too much, and it is estimated that the long-term "tracheitis" has a psychological shadow, and all the men in the world are as unlucky as him to marry a tigress!

Chihara Rin felt that he knew better than Hakuma Zongzheng, at least his wife was a good choice, absolutely gentle and lovely, and couldn't help but feel some sympathy for him, and quickly persuaded him to go and sleep well - he drank less than Hakuma Zongzheng, Ningzi was pouring wine for his father, and the cups were full, but his wine was poured by Mei Qianzi, this girl has a lot of experience in the wine field, and she is often dissatisfied, and she secretly mixed a lot of water.

White Horse Zong was helped away by his wife, this one was without elders, and suddenly the mountain god Aiko and they were much more alive, and began to fight and make trouble, and poured wine according to the shy son, and White Horse Ningzi sent his parents, and when he came back, he asked with a smile: "Mom asked us to go to the hot springs, do you want to go?"

Soaking in the hot spring can wash away the fatigue of the journey, and it is also fun, and before Chihara Rin said anything, Yamagami Aiko, Konoe Hitomi and Nishino Kirosa have already raised their arms together and shouted: "Yes, long live the hot spring!"

Hakuma Ningzi looked at Rin Chihara and saw that he didn't seem to have any opinions, so he packed up with a group of people and set off.

If you want to soak in the hot springs, you have to go up the mountain, and the hot springs are near the mountainside of Xiaobei Mountain, but the road is not difficult to walk. The mountain road paved with bluestone slabs, and there is a stone statue of Jizo Bodhisattva not far away, or wearing a hat, or one-handed together, silently protecting pedestrians all the way, and there are also street lamps, and there are tourists, up and down.

Hakuma Ninko noticed that Rin Chihara was observing, and explained to him with a smile: "My mother opened a hot spring inn on the mountain, but the hot spring water quality of Kohokuyama is very ordinary, and it is not famous, mainly to entertain the good faith who comes to the temple. ”

Chihara Rin nodded, feeling that her mother-in-law was quite concerned about doing business, but it was none of his business, so she turned her mouth and said with concern: "Your mother is not difficult for you, right?"

"Nope. ”

"That's good. Chihara Rin was worried that Mitsueda would lose her temper, so Ningzi didn't get scolded, and smiled directly: "Actually, your mother is very good, you have been refusing to come back, she is angry, and she has not forced you to change your mind, in fact, this is among parents, even if it is more reasonable." ”

He is telling the truth, and he does feel that his mother-in-law is more open-minded, which is in stark contrast to Michiko's mother.

Hakuma Ninko smiled gently, nodded softly, and didn't say anything, but there was a little cunning in her eyes, and Chihara Rin looked at her expression, and suddenly reacted, feeling that something was wrong-yes, really speaking, Mizueda has a strong personality at first glance, and she is much more capable than Nanbu Ryoko, why didn't she force her daughter to change her mind, and honestly agreed?

I hadn't thought about it before, but I thought about it...... It's a bit weird indeed!

The more he thought about it, the more wrong it became, and he just wanted to ask, but Aiko of the mountain god suddenly stretched out her head from behind and asked excitedly, "Sister Ningzi, can we go out to play tomorrow?"

"Yes, but I can't accompany you tomorrow, I want to help the family prepare for the New Year, I'll ask someone to take you to Kyoto to have a look, right?"

Aiko Yamagami immediately retracted her head, discussed it with the two good friends and Hitomi Konoe, and then stretched her head over and said, "Then we won't go tomorrow, let's help Sister Ningzi first." ”

"It's okay, it doesn't matter if you go out to play. Hakuma Ningzi's tone was very gentle, but Aiko the mountain god didn't care, and said happily: "It's okay, it's fun to prepare for the New Year, anyway, we have to stay for a while, and we'll see other places later." ”

After she finished speaking, she didn't wait for Bai Ma Ningzi to answer, she retracted her head and discussed it with her three friends, looking at her expression like a wild horse, ready to have fun.

Rin Chihara had a burst of MMP in his stomach, feeling that these oil bottles were really preventing him from enhancing his relationship with Ningzi - they were dating first and then falling in love, and the relationship was currently changing from confidants to lovers, and as a result, he couldn't even speak mellow every day, and the progress was very slow.

He said directly to Ning Zi: "Let's find someone to take them out for a walk tomorrow, and I'll help you prepare for the New Year." ”

Ning Zi asked curiously, "I'm going to make rice cakes tomorrow, will Qianyuan-kun?"

Rin Chihara was speechless, he wouldn't ...... Sure enough, when the book is used, there is less hatred, and there are many skills, and it is never pressed!

Ning Zi saw it, Rourou grabbed his arm, and laughed softly: "Qianyuan-kun, don't drive them away, we still have a long time to get along!"

Rin Chihara nodded, this was also true, and said in a low voice: "Okay, it's just that these guys have too little time for us to spend alone together." ”

Bai Ma Ningzi smiled: "Yes, it's a pity that our family didn't go bankrupt." ”

Sure enough, it was heard, and Rin Chihara said helplessly: "I didn't mean to curse your family." ”

"I know. Bai Ma Ningzi smiled: "Qianyuan-kun hopes that I can rely on you more and be able to live together, and I also hope like this...... I'm actually very happy to hear it, although we don't often get together after dating, but I like it when I think about it, and it's good to have someone to care about. ”

Chihara Rinto's eyes became gentle, and he nodded seriously, "Me too." ”

"The first time I liked someone, the more I thought about it, the more I liked it. Bai Ma Ningzi looked at the end of the mountain road and said with a smile: "People's feelings are really strange, just after dating, they suddenly become different." ”

Rin Chihara nodded again and again, the name has always been very important, and the upper limit of feelings was raised all of a sudden.

As they spoke, they came to a fork in the road, and Bai Ma Ningzi led them to the road where no one was, explaining: "This is what the family left behind before, and it is not open to the public. ”

Konoe Hitomi immediately became interested, and asked with a fluttering eyebrow, "Is there a private hot spring?"

"There is no special place, the water is the same, but it is a little old, it is not easy to rebuild, my mother did not build a hotel here, changed it to a home, so as not to affect the guests. ”

Hakuma Ningzi said so, but Konoe Hitomi was still very happy, and felt that his status had improved - a hot spring that ordinary people couldn't soak, and she enjoyed this dirt bun today, and she felt that she could use it to brag about when she returned to the village in the future.

They talked and laughed and walked a short distance along this fork in the road, and then they saw a courtyard group, made of wood and stone, Baima Ningzi turned his head and smiled: "It's here, Qianyuan-kun, let's go to the back, and you can use the small pond in front for yourself." ”

Rin Chihara naturally had no opinion, nodded, and Aiko Yamagami gave him a basket: "Chihara-sensei, here are towels, yukata and drinks and snacks." ”

Chihara Rin took it and thanked him, and Hakuma Ningzi cared again: "Chihara-kun, you have drunk wine alone, pay attention when you soak in the hot springs." ”

"I know, don't worry. Chihara Rin said with a smile and watched Hakuma Ningzi lead the rest of the people to the courtyard behind, and when Hakuma Ningzi was about to turn around, he glanced back, smiled at him, and waved his hand before disappearing.

He shook his head, feeling that these little girls were really a scourge, and went directly into the courtyard room, and found that it was not a place to live, but a dressing room and a bathroom, and it was made of stone, it was indeed a little old, probably built by the ancestors of the White Horse family, and Mitsueda did not dare to demolish and expand before choosing another place not far away to build a hotel.

He simply flushed himself, changed into a yukata and went to the hot spring in the courtyard, quickly tested the water temperature, took off his yukata and went down to the hot spring. The weather at the end of December was already very cold, and it was even colder in the mountains, and it was very uncomfortable to blow a little wind without clothes, but this time when I entered the hot spring, it was first hot, and then the blood flow speed accelerated, and the warmth was extremely comfortable, and even the small half of the body was exposed in the cold wind and did not feel cold.

He lay down in the water against the wall of the pool, and when he touched the stone beside him, it was also hot, and then he took the basket again, and put a bottle of milk in the crack of the stone to heat it, intending to drink it later.

There are some whirlwinds on the side of the courtyard near the cliff, but between the shallow rise of the hot springs, it is more comfortable to blow a small breeze, and Chihara Rin soaked for a while, not thinking about anything, and even the Dahe script that has been worrying about it recently, just simply enjoying the comfort brought by the rapid flow of blood throughout the body - obviously the blood is flowing fast, but it makes people feel dizzy, a bit like the feeling of lack of oxygen, I don't know what the principle is.

There was also a voice not far away, and I could vaguely hear that it was Aiko, the laughter of the fog yarn, and eighty percent was playing tricks on the Holy Son again, but the Holy Son also had a very good personality, obviously looking very tall and cold, but never really angry with two good friends, and rarely talked along the way, very quiet, and a good boy.

The income in the foreign exchange market is also good, the last time Shintaro Yasuda called back, he stammered, and then there are Indonesia, the Philippines, South Korea, Japan and other markets, I think I can continue to make a lot of money, and it is no wonder that so many people like to play, making money effortlessly, and I don't know how much my wealth can become in 98 years......

Iori Murakami suggested that she should start meddling in the affairs of the production bureau, is it necessary? She has a strong heart for factionalism, so should she also cultivate some people in the bureau who are willing to get close to her, just in case it will be useful in the future?

The hot spring made his mind rarely diverge, and countless thoughts drifted aimlessly, as if his body was half-floating in the pool, but suddenly a sound in the darkness woke him up, and his eyes refocused and looked directly over there.

The lights in this courtyard were very dim, and the hot springs also produced some fog in the cold, although they were not far away, but there were still some around the pool, and he couldn't see why there was movement for a while, but he felt that something was approaching, and his heart turned, and he couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart.

When Ning Zi left just now, she turned around and smiled at herself, could it be that there was some deep meaning in it, this was because she also felt that the two of them had too little time to get along, and after settling those little girls......

Coming here?
