Holding the phone in her left hand and attached to her left ear, Chie Sakai slowly stood up. I walked to the edge of the floor-to-ceiling glass window without hurry. With a smile on her face as she overlooked the cityscape of Tokyo from the top floor of the Sakai headquarters building, she habitually made a deal with Takeshita Kusake, saying, "It's been a long time since our family has eaten together." Why don't you come to Chiyoda Ward and have dinner with us tonight? ”

Takeshita Kusaoke, who doesn't like to go to Sakai's ancestral house to meet her parents, always has a little embarrassment in her heart every time she faces their two elders. Although it is common for two young people to have children out of wedlock, they secretly cooked raw rice into cooked rice behind their parents' backs. When he came to him, it became obvious. Now, even the two children are eight years old, and they still don't plan to get married.

"Okay! However, I'm going to bring Mina here. Also, it may be a little late. Before that, I had to go to Mui Ne's primary school for a parent-teacher conference. "I was reluctant in my heart, but I still had to go to Takeshita Kusaoke, so that she could let go of Yumi Oshima with a noble hand, and thus made a sacrifice for Minamino Shuichi.

Of course, he knows that if he doesn't go, the consequence will be endless rip-offs with the other party, after all, it is not easy to make compromises and concessions, and Sakai Chie's character is relieved. I have long figured out that Takeshita Mustard, who likes to trade in her bones, has never suspected that she is a natural big businessman and a big chaebol.

"Just get there on time, both of you. You also know when our house is open. With a satisfied smile on her face, Chie Sakai said in a good mood, "After dinner, we can talk about Yumi Oshima in a good way." ”

Takeshita Kusaoke, who understood that this was a matter of getting it done, then hung up the phone after chatting with her a few more words about Wakana and Hideki. After glancing at the time, he should almost go out, after all, there is still a parent-teacher meeting waiting for him. It's the first time for Takeshita Kusa to participate in this kind of group activity.,I've never held a parent-teacher meeting for Miyuki and Miyu.,It's all going by Kako Kitagawa.。 As for his other two children, Wakana and Hideki, he didn't need to go in person, and they were all done by the Sakai family's housekeeper himself. After the parent-teacher meeting, the chief housekeeper went back to report to the Sakai family.

When I arrived at the public elementary school, I walked into my youngest daughter's class. Instead of sitting in his own children's seats, he and the mothers of their children stood at the back of the classroom. At first, he didn't notice anything, and when the women all glanced at him from time to time, he noticed that he was a man in the family.

For this reason, Takeshita Kusaoke, who really doesn't care, doesn't have to worry about how they think about themselves and how they talk about themselves behind their backs. In Japanese society, this kind of thing is done by the mother, and the father is supposed to work in the company at this time. Unless there are special circumstances, fathers who have not remarried will have to come to attend parent-teacher conferences for their children. However, it is still inevitable that people will talk about it behind their backs.

"Excuse me. Excuse me, why didn't your child's mother come? "A woman under the age of thirty, who is the president of the mother of the class, took the initiative to walk up to Takeshita Kusaoji before the teacher came.

"She's too busy, so I'm here." I am accustomed to thinking in the previous life that no matter whether my father comes or my mother comes, it is not all the same Takeshita grass mustard, but I am also considerate of Kitagawa Kako to avoid running back and forth, after all, there is a long distance from Shinjuku Ward to Kobegawa Ward. What's more, she has already taken care of Miyuki and Miyo. Moreover, Mina has always been cultivated by herself, so it is best to personally understand her actual situation at school.

A touch of contempt appeared on his face, although he was still polite, but there was obviously more or less contempt in his tone: "We formed a mother's association." The mothers of all the children in the class have joined, but only your family Mina Kitagawa, that is, your wife, has not been able to join. ”

When I heard her say this, I also remembered that the Rose Club where Kitagawa Kako was also a Takeshita grass wasabi organized by her mothers spontaneously, and I vaguely remembered that this was a Japanese tradition, and for this purpose, it was used to supervise the school and teachers. Actually, that's one aspect, and the other main aspect is being able to get together to pass the time and find all kinds of solace...... By the way, complain about the that prices have risen again, and so on. It's strange that a man joins a group of women. What's more, when women gather together, they can't avoid all kinds of gossip.

Takeshita Grass Mustard, who didn't want to get mixed with them, coped: "My wife's place is far away from here, and our father and daughter have lived together for a long time. On weekdays, although I spend a lot of time at home, I am relatively busy. If we could, our family wouldn't have participated! ”

After hearing what he said, the mothers immediately treated him as an outlier. In the mindset of many of them, a man comes to hold a parent-teacher conference for his children, while his wife is busy working to earn money to support the family, which is simply a wreck. This would rather stay at home than think about the sake of the daughter, after all, participating in the mother's meeting is also a necessary interpersonal communication. Today, he came to hold a parent-teacher conference for his children, and I am afraid that it is all in the nature of persecution. A man like him, who has nothing to do at home all day, still has a face to live, which is really a shame for the Yamato nation.

"Again, what do you do? If you have difficulties with your family life, please come to me. I am a civil servant who is responsible for guiding the re-employment of the unemployed in this area. On the one hand, I had heard from my own children that the Kitagawa family lived in a small and dilapidated apartment building, and on the other hand, I had heard his wife go to a farther away place to be busy, so I naturally thought that he was sent to a more remote place by the dispatch company to work, after all, the Ebeichuan district is already on the edge of Tokyo, and if you work far away, there will be nothing good. Either engaged in the operation of the assembly line of the factory, or engaged in the production of agriculture. Otherwise, it is a temporary job such as working as a waiter in a hotel, or washing dishes.

"Chef." I thought back to what I had told my little daughter about what my personal occupation was, and I had to keep the same tone as Mina, so I told a white lie with an unnatural expression. (To be continued.) )
