After regaining consciousness under the snow, Miss Yono helped me up from the ground again and patted me on the shoulder [I really didn't misread you, it's better than Qigu-kun.]

[... I watched in shock at this dramatic change, why did I win, why did Yono stand up and deny her mother, and the sachet she gave under the snow... Does it make any sense?

Yono just smiled at me and turned to face her mother again

[Mother, I know you have a lot of questions... I'll explain. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ]

The mother under the snow frowned, very dissatisfied with Yang Nai's approach, but she did not directly deny her statement, probably in her opinion, Yang Nai would do this because there should be a reason to satisfy her, so after Yang Nai said the result, she has been standing aside and waiting, waiting for Yang Nai's reason

[You know my temper... I need an absolute reason!] There was an irrefutable majesty in his tone, not very loud but irresistible.

But Yono smiled, and seemed to be confident [Mother, please sit down, I'm also... There are some things I want to say to you, including, of course, the reasons you want. ]

After a while, I finally sat down in the seat again, and Yono sat in my original seat, sitting face to face with my mother, still with a smile on my face, one hand under the snow held the sachet tightly, and the other hand was pulling my palm, her hand was very cold, and she couldn't feel the usual warmth, looking at my mother and sister with some concern, I gently shook her hand and signaled her to rest assured, because I believe in this person, although sometimes it really annoys people crazy, but he is also a person who does what he says, at least it will not disappoint... I don't understand why she would help us, but now we can only rely on her.

[Let's start with my reasoning...] What I gave under the snow was the last leaf of the clover.]

After hearing the reason given by Yang Nai, she almost didn't think about it and directly denied it, and her emotions were rarely a little excited.

[Nothing impossible, Koyukino, don't you open it and take a look?] As he spoke, Yono's gaze looked towards us. Xue Xia slowly opened his hand, looking at the small sachet in his hand, a little hesitant, but still pulled the thin rope under Yang Nao's urging gaze, and poured out a small piece of green leaf-like gem from it. It's really surprising.,Didn't you say that this had been taken away by her parents under the snow?Why was it on Yang Nai's body? Rather, why would she give this to Xue Xia on her own initiative, and wanted to declare war on her mother? Looking at this result, Xue Xia was shocked for a moment, and then squeezed it in his hand, looking at his mother with a somewhat complicated expression, not knowing what he was thinking. It's hope, it's for her, and of course it's for me, although I don't know what that means.

Looking at the things in her hands under the snow, her brow furrowed even deeper, and her tone became stern [Why, you have this? Why did you give it to them, now!]

[My father gave it to me yesterday, after those people came to propose.] Yono is still very calm, even in the face of his mother who is already angry [As for why he handed it over to Koyukino..] After glancing at us, he said with some emotion [Probably... That's the right thing to do...]

The father under the snow, the big man who is very big for me, and it feels more reliable than anything else with his support, so this marriage contract under the snow... I looked nervously at my mother, who was the decision-maker today.

[Was that the man's decision...] How dare you do it, huh. After getting the reason given by Yono, she fell silent, closed her eyes, and pondered for a moment [But, even so, I still don't admit it! Yukino is my daughter, like this....]

When I heard her say this, my heart sank, is it still not good? Is this woman really so invincible?

[But it's also my father's daughter, isn't it?] Yono interrupted her, reached out to lift the cup of black tea that had been forgotten for a long time, took a few sips gently, and didn't care about the anger that her mother couldn't suppress, and continued [Also, Mother hesitated, just when Hiki Gu-kun said his two reasons...]

I looked at this mother who was already on the verge of exploding with some surprise, did she hesitate a little? I felt that she was making a decision on her own from beginning to end, although the tone was not so absolute but I really didn't see her wavering, which is why I really had no choice but to kneel and pray in the end.

[....] She was silent again, slowly leaning back in her seat with her eyes closed, as if remembering something, the angry expression on her face slowly relaxed, with a hint of a smile? This is a smile, isn't it? It's incredible, that person can laugh too? but... This time, is it a tacit acquiescence? Then she really hesitated, right? If she hesitated, why didn't she change it? Yang Nai was really the same kind as her... It's scary.

In the face of her silence, Yang Nai continued to smile, and spoke slowly in a nostalgic tone, as if to us, but also to her mother [At the beginning, mother and father were the same, when they met, mother was a great beauty with many suitors, and father was a very dull person who didn't understand anything...]

What are you talking about?] Because her private history was about to be exposed, she really opened her eyes all of a sudden, and looked at the eldest daughter in front of her with some anxiety.

[Nothing..] Yono still doesn't care, looking back at us and continuing to talk about the history of my mother [I don't know why, but my mother left everyone behind, except for my father.] Even approached him on his own initiative, exhausting all methods...]

Xue Xia and I listened to the story of Yono in surprise, and I always thought it was incredible, that person would actually take the initiative to approach others? If it is an order, it is still possible, but... Looking at her with her head tilted and her expression a little flustered, she had to believe that this was a fact...

[What happened later?] Xue Xia changed his depressed mood before, and asked curiously, I was also curious, but I was more curious about why Xue Xia didn't know but Xue Nai would know... Did someone tell her selectively?

It seems that Yang Nai is also very interested, and he is excited [Later... Later, because of the mother's strong relationship, the father succumbed, and at the beginning, the mother was very sad because of the father's dullness and inferiority, and the father was still a very ordinary teenager at that time, and the mother was a famous family, so almost everyone was against them being together. Do you give in... Sure enough, it has been so strong since the beginning of that era.

[Then why...] How did they come together in the end...] Xue Xia asked the question in his heart, and looked at Xiang Yangnai in puzzlement.

[And finally the mother...]

[Because I persevered until the end and left home, in order to be together, he went to my family to beg for the fulfillment of us in front of my parents, although in the end my parents agreed, but the rest of the family...] She finally spoke, looking up at me, then at the snow that had been holding my hand, and sighed [After we were together... It's hard work, starting a business, the pressure of exclusion, opposition and ridicule around us almost collapses, and it's too far from what we once imagined... But as you said, we didn't give up, we didn't betray, we kept coming...]

[Finally... Didn't you succeed..] I finally couldn't help but ask, "Why... Must do it]

[Because I don't want Yukino to go through that pain again...] She shook her head a little helplessly [You are still too young, so I don't understand, you are still very immature compared to the old ones, and many things have changed now, not the same as before, now your pressure will be greater, big enough to crush you, even if we agree to be together, you will still change... Xue Naiin doesn't know, the pain that turns from hope to despair... So...]

[... I know...] The expression under the snow became painful again, as if he remembered the past, but he looked at his mother firmly [and I also know that we can go all the way like my mother and father at the beginning...]

[It's not a question of believing or not believing...] She kept shaking her head, feeling helpless about her daughter's persistence [everything will change, time can change one...]

[But there are some things that don't change] Yono suddenly added, smiling at his mother [Father's feelings for his mother have not changed from beginning to end.] Of course, the same goes for my mother.]

[..... The man's thing, who knows... Maybe...] Speaking of this, she began to be a little restrained, her hands trembled slightly when she had been in front of her, and a slight flush suddenly appeared on her face, which had always been calm... Will this person be shy too...

[Father said to you, "Even if you have nothing, but you're happy", this sentence is his motivation to this day] Speaking of this, Yono looked at me [This is a bit similar to what some people have said, isn't it?

[Hmm....] Ah, I can't stand this person, and I still talk about it at such a time, I turned my head away a little shyly, but I saw that his face was slightly red under the snow and kept looking at me with the corner of his eye... It's worse than just now.

[I'm not sure they'll be able to live well on their own in the future, but they'll be happy.] Isn't that what you'd like to see?]

After a brief silence, the mother under the snow regained her former demeanor [even so, there is nothing to prove how long their relationship will last...] Maybe abandoned, betrayed...] Then he turned his head and looked at us, as if waiting for our answer, but my mind went blank, how can I prove such a thing? With a beautiful oath? It was just an uncashed check. What kind of action can be called proof? For a moment I was stunned and turned my head to look under the snow in shame, hoping that she could do something, or tell me what to do... However, she also looked at me blankly... Are you all in the same predicament?

[Well, my mother didn't let my father prove it at the beginning...] Sensing our embarrassment, Yono smiled at me with a "you owe me a favor" and said to her mother [But I can prove it... Than Qi Gu Jun saved me]

[I know... But this doesn't prove anything. She seemed unhappy with the answer, glaring at me with slanted eyes, feeling as uncomfortable as the prey being targeted by a wild beast... Why, this is not what I said...

[So have you ever wondered why he saved me?, knowing that he might die, would she dare to replace it with the guy who proposed to me and Yukino?]

Faced with this question, although I wanted to say something more, I couldn't say anything. Indeed, in that case, the police were powerless, why should I save her? At that time, if it wasn't for that belief, and she wasn't a sister under the snow, I basically had this idea of how far I would go.... And in that case, dare to save people... Obviously, the guy they were talking about didn't dare...

After listening to what Yang Nai said, she closed her eyes and leaned back on her seat quietly, me and Xue Xia also looked at her nervously, the whole scene fell silent again, the unusual silence in this family restaurant, the customers around... What's going on? Still looking at this side after so long? Looking at some of them, they already have a lot of sweat on their foreheads, and they seem to be more nervous than me... A bunch of guys who love to watch the fun...

After a long time, with a long sigh to end the silence, she opened her eyes and sighed helplessly [Is this fate...]

Shifted his gaze to me [.... Four years, I will give you four years, that is, after graduating from college, let's look at your situation, now you are really too young, but because of your youth, I will give you this opportunity. You must remember that Hikiya Hachiman... Right?]

[Yes, yes!] because it was the first time she called my name, I couldn't help but be a little nervous. After so much, did you succeed? Finally... Now, if she wasn't here, I would probably have fallen to the ground, and the nerves that had been tense suddenly relaxed.

She stood up and looked at the snow gently, and this time she finally reached out and gently stroked the cheek under the snow [Yukino... This... You win.. It was my negligence, hey...]

[Mom...] The emotions under the snow became agitated again, the voice trembled, and the eyes were full of tears [I...]

The mother under the snow shook her head at her [Yukino, you don't need tears now... Can you smile?]

[Yes, Mom.] I wiped away my tears with my hands under the snow, and showed a faint smile to my mother, which was beautiful, probably a heartfelt smile under the snow, and I was very glad to see this scene.

[Well, I remembered...] After that, she turned around and instructed Yono, who was still sitting in her seat, [Okay, things... This time it's finally over, and they'll just leave the rest to themselves... Are you going to go back with me or..]

Yono stood up and smiled happily [Okay, Mother] and looked at us [Oh, that's great, congratulations!Koyukino, you have to let me know when that leaf was given to Hikiya-kun Oh, yes, Hiki-gu-kun. ]

[Don't ask me...] How do I know such a thing... But when I heard her say this, I couldn't help but feel a little nervous... Although our matter is settled, it doesn't seem to be over on the side of the snow house.,Didn't you say at the beginning that you wanted to find a reason so that everyone wouldn't lose face.... I couldn't help but look at Yang Nai with some concern.

[What's wrong?]

[.... I still haven't found the reason to lose face, and I refuse that person's marriage proposal...] It may be irresponsible to say so, but that's how it is now.... Hopefully there won't be any more trouble...

[Don't worry about that] replied that I was indeed ready to leave, and the mother who had turned her back to me was very terrible [just refuse!]

That's not good, let's use some euphemisms, such as studying under the snow or something...

[Hmph, do you have any more reasons for my refusal?]

[....] In the face of such an answer, I once again realized what kind of person I was talking to just now... It's a nightmare as an enemy, but it's too reliable as an ally...

Watching the black sedan slowly leave from the glass window, fade out of our sight, announcing that today's matter has come to an end, although the process makes people can't be upset but the result can be said to be happy for all... And the guests around... Because the relationship that already knows the result has been re-seated in his place, whispering... Probably this matter will become a topic of conversation for them in a short period of time... I've had enough...

Looking back, under the snow, he had already retracted the leaf from the scented bag and put it in his school bag.

[Yukino.]

[Huh?]

[Let's go]

[Hmm.] ]

I walked out of this memorable restaurant with me holding hands under the snow, and I will probably never forget it. Now, there's another thing waiting for us... Although I don't know the end, I won't lose my way, and I've never felt so confident in my heart.
