Chapter 150, The Obligations of the Eldest Daughter of the Family
The conversation about horses is over, Takuhisa is a layman who knows nothing about horse racing and equestrianism, and at most he has only seen it in TV magazines, and talking about equestrianism with Sugai Yuka is like an axe in front of Luban's door, Takuhisa changed the topic very interestingly and talked about the situation of Sugai Yuka and their school.
Being able to study at the invitation of her classmates since the fifth grade of elementary school is naturally not an ordinary public school, how can a public school have such a department as an equestrian department, she studied in the Gakuin Women's Secondary School, a well-known private school, and it is normal to have an equestrian department and classmates who also practice horses.
As a private college, it has risen to the top of Gakushuin University and Women's University, where many royal princesses and princes have graduated, as well as many celebrities in society, such as politician Taro Aso and animation director Hayao Miyazaki.
Takuhisa, who graduated from a public school, certainly hasn't experienced the life of a private school, so listening to Yuka Sugai talk about her at a private school is also very interesting.
At that time, I would also be embarrassed from time to time, for example, when Yuka Sugai asked him what department he attended in a public school, Takuhisa could only say with a little embarrassment, "I'm in the home department" and the person haha.
Who called him withdrawn, he was also addicted to ACG at the time, and he was not interested in those youthful activities in school at all, even when he graduated, he was never given a gift by a girl, and he did not have the experience of giving his second button to his favorite girl.
It is so ordinary that it is not necessary to describe the experience of low-level middle and high school students.
"But I'm still very envious of you, cousin, when I was in school, except for the break time in school and the training of the equestrian department, I didn't go out to play with my classmates freely, even when I came home, I had to learn something else, such as piano, ballet, tennis, and I didn't have any free time at all. Sugai said.
"I don't know how many people want to swap lives with you. Takuhisa shook his head helplessly when he heard Sugai Tomoka say this, "Of course, personally, I still like public colleges, and I don't want to be too strict." ”
"Yes, yes, I can't breathe anymore when I am managed, but my classmates around me say that this is normal, and I am embarrassed to say this to them. Sugai Tomoka very much agrees with Takuhisa's idea, people who can study in the same school with her are basically similar to her family's status and wealth, and they are naturally very strict with their parents in life, and they have all developed habits, but Takuhisa, a person from an ordinary family since childhood, has a different point of view, which makes Sugai Tomoka very happy.
The gap between the private and public schools is still quite large, especially after the liberal education, the wealthy families continue to let their children receive the rigorous and fulfilling study life of private colleges, and continue to expand their abilities outside the classroom, while the poor families can only let their children receive the increasingly relaxed public education, and those with a little money can only go to cram schools in addition to letting their children go to private schools.
So Sugai Yuka's envy actually seems to be very luxurious in the eyes of many people, and of course this is also a worry for the rich.
People from wealthy families can worry about mental troubles outside of life, while the poor can only accept the cruel reality in helplessness, and the cruelty of society greets people when they go to school.
"Your sister must be just as busy, right?" Takuhisa asked about Sugai's sister, "If she's the eldest daughter, her uncle will be stricter with her, right?"
"Is that so?" Sugai said suspiciously, "but my sister is really busy, and I don't see her much, as if my father has assigned her a lot of tasks." ”
"Mission?"
"It's just learning about business, attending a lot of balls, and getting to know some strange men, and I don't think my sister likes the way those men look. Sugai Yuka said as if he didn't understand.
"I see. ”
As soon as she said this, Takuhisa also understood what Yuka's sister was doing, nothing more than that as the eldest daughter in the family, she had to learn all kinds of knowledge, participate in ballroom dances to expand her network, and go on a blind date with the man arranged by the family to set a fiancé.
It's all the children of the family who should bear it, especially when Yuka's sister is a woman, especially the eldest daughter, and she is basically not in charge of marriage. If you think about it this way, Yuka Sugai is really happy.
As the second daughter, she won't have too much pressure on marriage and hobbies, even if she wants to marry a civilian boy in the future, there won't be much resistance.
Speaking of which, Takuhisa is very glad that he did not decide to change back to the Sugai surname, the surname is very good, at least he does not have to bear the family obligations of the Sugai family, he can happily be his own invisible rich, start the life of a bulldozer (not), and decide who he wants to marry.
Ah, the life of a commoner is not bad to say.
After breakfast, Sugai Yuka was ready to go to school, and the housekeeper would pick her up, not that she went to school alone, and it wasn't that she couldn't go to school alone, but it was a lot worse in terms of safety and efficiency, and there were many people who were richer than her, so it was actually nothing to pick her up in a car.
Takuhisa is also ready to say goodbye, and the next stop is to go to Hokkaido, no matter what, his biological father always wants to meet. After knowing the exact address, there will always be a pimple in your heart if you don't go to see it.
When saying goodbye at the door of the villa, Yuka Sugai suddenly grabbed Takuhisa's hand with the audacity.
"Na, cousin, in the future... Are you still playing?" she asked, with wide eyes and hope, "How about an equestrian competition in the equestrian department next year?"
Sugai's invitation was simple, Takuhisa agreed without thinking, and it was just at that time that he could also come and see what the academy that the royal family members attended was like.
"Great, when the time comes, I must let you see Yuka's riding skills, even the main general said that I am very talented in equestrianism!" Sugai Yuka was excited, "Cousin, you will definitely be surprised, hehe!"
"I'm looking forward to that. Takuhisa echoed her, suddenly remembering what the head of the Sugai family had said to him last night.
"Takuhisa, when the Chinese New Year is celebrated this year, do you want to come with us?
The old man of the family will be happy to see you, how about it, think about it?"
At that time, he didn't agree to come down, because he originally said that he would take Rinai back to Oita for the New Year. The head of the Sugai family also saw his hesitation and did not force him, but just gave him time to think.
