Konoe Tsushima would rather let Tsukasa Higashino pick up a piece of his own property than let Ryo Konoe inherit the core industry of the Konoe family... The reason for this is probably not so simple.

And the request that Tsukasa Higashino can think of... I guess it's a lot of money.

But this is obviously unlikely.

After all, Tsukasa Higashino is also a celebrity now, and there is no shortage of profits from their Konoe family... I want him to change his surname to Konoe... Let's be honest... Relying on these things alone, it is impossible to impress Higashino Tsukasa at all.

And as long as it's a man with a little ambition and ability, it's estimated that they will scoff at the matter of entering the door.

Higashino Tsukasa thought about it, and the Konoe Tsushima on the other side seemed to sense his thoughts and took the initiative to speak: "Please rest assured, Si-kun, I don't want you to join the Konoe family. ”

"Really...?" Tsukasa Higashino glanced sideways at Konoe Tsushima, somewhat confused.

Since the idea is not to hit yourself ... That's...

"I hope that after you marry your little girl, the first child born will be able to change the surname to Konoe, so that he can inherit the core family business of the Konoe family."

Konoe put forward his own idea for the horse.

So that's how it is—

Tsukasa Higashino suddenly realized.

Konoe Tsushima had turned out to be a hit on his son or daughter.

He obviously knew that he couldn't impress Tsukasa Higashino, so he hit the idea on the children who hadn't even touched Tsukasa Higashino and Ryoka Konoe.

This made Higashino Tsukasa amused and speechless, Konoe Tsushima really worried too much about this Konoe family.

But...

"I'm sorry, father-in-law, but I can't just agree to your request."

Tsukasa Higashino didn't think much about it, so he took the initiative to shake his head.

Although it is his child, he does not have the right to decide the fate of the other party in advance, and he and Lianghua's son... Or the matter of the daughter, it should be up to them to decide.

But...

"So I have an idea here." Tsukasa Higashino did not repeatedly give face to his father-in-law, and put forward his own ideas: "Let them decide for themselves whether to change their surname to Konoe... What do you think? Father-in-law. ”

"Let them decide for themselves...?" When he said this, Konoe Tsushima, who was still a little disappointed just now, came back to his senses.

Because it's a really good solution.

Let the child decide for himself... This is definitely not a loss for his guards and horses.

After all, who can resist the temptation to grow up to inherit billions of family properties? Let's not talk about people like Tsukasa Higashino... Konoe didn't think that his own property would attract even the son or daughter of Tsukasa Higashino.

He gained confidence, and thought a little, feeling that he could also have a good relationship with his granddaughter and grandson since he was a child through the identity of his grandfather - can he still coax a few children?

It's impossible to think about it!

It can also pave the way for inheriting the family business in the future... No matter from that point of view, this is a sure win.

"It's a good idea." Konoe Tsushima's tense face was finally relieved.

The reason for the relief is not only to find a successor for the Konoe family in the future, but more importantly, Higashino Tsukasa has always maintained a very respectful attitude towards him, and there is no rudeness at all.

Conversation, manners, upbringing... To be honest, if Higashino Tsukasa was his own child, the position of the first successor would basically not run.

It's a pity it's not...

At this point, Konoe could only express regret to Ma, and then spoke: "By the way, in fact, there are other reasons not to hand over the family business of the Konoe family to Ryoto, the most important of which is... I don't think Ryoto can carry the Konoe family's business. ”

Blood relationship is blood relationship, but the most important thing is that Ryo Konoe is not this material at all!

He can't afford to carry this guard banner at all!

That's the most important thing.

In fact, there were many cases in ancient Japan of succession and succession, but that was also based on the premise of ability.

You don't even have the ability, so don't you just give it for nothing to hand over such a big family business to you?

"I feel the same way." Tsukasa Higashino heard this and nodded with a smile.

If you can damage Ryo Konoe, you can damage Ryoto Konoe more, he won't really be lenient with this goods.

The next thing is much easier to solve.

Tsukasa Higashino drank tea with Konoe Tsushima, and then talked to him about Ryoka Konoe at school...

It can be seen that Konoe Tsushima is indeed a daughter, he is very concerned about his daughter's situation at school, and when he knows that Konoe Ryoka's academic performance is basically in the top twenty or even top ten in the grade, he can't help but show a smile.

This made Higashino Tsukasa see it and secretly slandered in his heart.

He tried all kinds of ways to make this old man happy, and the final result was to make his tense face a little relaxed.

As a result, when it comes to Ryoka Konoe, he can't stop laughing...

Really? This is called differential treatment.

Naturally, Tsukasa Higashino really has any opinions? At most, it's two sentences of slander.

In the back, Higashino Tsukasa also understands why Konoe Tsushima, the old man, is so concerned about Konoe Lianghua...

He took out a photo? Above is the appearance of Konoe Ryoka's mother - at least ninety percent similar to Konoe Ryoka!

This made Higashino Tsukasa a little dumbfounded.

Maybe it's looking at the appearance of Ryoka Konoe? It's easy to think of his dead wife, so Konoe Tsushima isn't very close to her on the surface.

As for the rest of the same... Maybe it's the figure.

Mother-in-law is obviously not as big as Konoe Lianghua? On the contrary, it's a bit flat...

After drinking tea, Higashino Tsukasa saw Ryoka Konoe, Rin Konoe, who were sitting in the large living room looking a little anxious, and Mato Konoe, who looked at him with a strange face.

This makes Tsukasa Higashino a little confused? Because he inexplicably felt that Konoe Mato looked at him a little strangely...

"Ace... You're out. "As soon as you see Tsukasa Higashino come back? Konoe Lianghua immediately greeted him.

She ignored Tsushima, the guard beside Tsukasa Higashino, and began to scan Tsukasa Higashino's body up and down worriedly, as if she was worried that Tsushima would be rough with him.

The way he checked up and down made Tsushima, who was clubbing next to him, a little sour - do you really think I'm going to do something to this kid?

He was a little at a loss to say.

Higashino was keenly aware of the calm and resentful gaze coming from Konoe's side of Tsushima, so he smiled and said, "Huh? Coming back? I had a pretty good conversation with my father-in-law. ”

"Really?" Konoe Ryoka noticed that Konoe Tsushima was next to her, she looked at Konoe Tsushima, and said a little worriedly, "Father didn't tell you anything strange, did he?" ”

These words deeply pierced Konoe's delicate and sensitive heart for his daughter, and he couldn't help but furrowed his eyebrows: "How could I do that?" ”

However, his helpless appeal obviously did not arouse the belief of Konoe Ryoka, Konoe Ryoka just glanced at him? He turned to look at Tsukasa Higashino.

This made Higashino Tsukasa suddenly feel that Konoe's resentful gaze towards the horse had changed to a sense of stabbing and murderous intent, so he immediately helped explain: "As my father-in-law said? Nothing, I just talk to him about family life. ”

"That's the case..."Although Konoe Ryoka can't accept it? But still nodded obediently and blinked with big beautiful eyes? Indicates acceptance.

Konoe thought to himself, "You don't believe what he just explained?" How do you talk to your boyfriend... You agree?

This is too discriminatory.

Thinking of this? Konoe's expression on Tsushima remained unchanged, but his tone was still a little sullen, "I still have things to deal with next, so feel free." He turned around and left.

Before leaving, he also gave Konoe Mato a look.

This made Konoe Mato, who was enjoying his daughter's head massage next to him, react, and he happily walked up to Higashino Division: "Hello, Si-kun, I'm Lianghua's uncle, Konoe Mato." ”

"Hello, Uncle Mato, I'm Tsukasa Higashino."

After the two introduced themselves to each other, Mato Konoe made a request to talk to Ryoka Konoe.

It's just a small request, of course Higashino Tsukasa doesn't care, he walked outside the door and waited for about a minute or two, when Ryoka Konoe appeared, her expression was subtle... It seems to be a little happy.

As soon as she saw Tsukasa Higashino, she hurriedly walked over, and then said excitedly: "Ace, Uncle Mato told me just now, and my father said that he was willing to reimburse all the expenses of all our tours in Aomori Prefecture... Does this mean that he has approved of us? ”

Reimbursement of travel expenses is not a big deal, and the most important thing is the information that comes out of this little thing.

This made Tsukasa Higashino sigh a little.

Sure enough, it is worthy of being an invisible daughter control, and even showing an attitude has to be so roundabout - his father-in-law is simply an old arrogant.

"Looks like I'm passing the test for the time being." Tsukasa Higashino touched Ryoka Konoe's head and said something that reassured her.

"Hmm!" Konoe Lianghua nodded vigorously, and then smirked: "Ace is really powerful... can deal with such a difficult father. ”

Her words made Higashino Tsukasa a little speechless.

Konoe Tsushima was a real problem to deal with - but that was only for Tsukasa Higashino.

If you change to Konoe Lianghua today, it is estimated that it will take less than ten minutes for Konoe Tsushima to directly agree to this marriage.

However, Higashino Tsukasa didn't get to the point of damaging his father-in-law, so he more or less said to Konoe Tsushima: "It's not like that, your father is actually quite friendly to me, it's not difficult to deal with, and he also likes your daughter a lot." ”

These words can be regarded as coming from the heart, but as soon as they were spoken, Konoe Lianghua showed a slightly surprised expression: "Ace... How do you speak for my father? ”

"And I've always wondered if my father hated me a little."

Yes?

Your father hates you a little?

Higashino Tsukasa was stunned, feeling that Ryoka Konoe was good everywhere, and he felt that there was indeed a problem with his vision.

But when Ryoka Konoe starts to explain, Tsukasa Higashino probably understands why she thinks Konoe Tsushima hates her.

According to Konoe Ryoka, she got a lot of good grades in her studies when she was a child, but Konoe Tsushima didn't praise her like other parents at all, and always left after a cold answer.

Although he attended the parent-teacher conference every time, he didn't have the slightest expression of encouragement when he saw her speech at the parent-teacher meeting, his lips trembled, he even looked a little impatient, and he always lowered his head to look at his watch, as if he was worried that he wouldn't be able to catch up with the time for business conversations.

At such times, the aggrieved Konoe Ryoka will go to Konoe Rinka's house, and Konoe Mato, the uncle, will always prepare a lot of gifts for her to celebrate, and it is always something she likes.

This is also the reason why Ryoka Konoe is so close to Rin Konoe.

After listening to what Ryoka Konoe said, Higashino Tsukasa just opened his mouth, his mind full of surprise - it's really you, old man.

You're too arrogant, aren't you?

According to Higashino Division's understanding, the lips trembled at the parent-teacher meeting, it is estimated that Konoe Tsushima was too nervous, and he could only face other parents with a tense face, in order to relieve his emotions, the reason why he lowered his head to look at his watch, in fact, he was moved to wipe his tears, and he didn't want Konoe Lianghua to see, if he really hated Konoe Lianghua... Konoe Tsushima probably won't even attend the parent-teacher conference.

And Konoe Mato prepares a gift ... It's always the thing that Ryoka Konoe likes... This can also be seen completely.,It's estimated that Konoe Tsushima wanted to celebrate her.,So she bought and asked Konoe Mato to help hand it over to Konoe Lianghua.。

How else could it be such a coincidence? How could Konoe Mato always happen to know Konoe's preferences?

After figuring out this relationship, Higashino Tsukasa rubbed his temples even more.

My father-in-law... It's okay.

It is said that father's love is heavy and invisible... You're too invisible, aren't you? It's all completely invisible.

"Ahem, in short, Lianghua, don't complain too much about your father-in-law." Tsukasa Higashino gave Konoe Tsushima the title of Invisible Guardian, and then added, "He didn't deny the relationship between the two of us, which shows that he still respects your opinion... Right? ”

“... Ace, you have to say that... Indeed. Konoe Ryoka nodded thoughtfully, a little abruptly: "So, my father has always loved me?"

"Well, although it's not as good as me, I love you very much." Higashino added heavily.

I still have to say this, it's not a backstab to my father-in-law, it's just to deepen my relationship with Ryoka Konoe.

"Hehe..." Konoe Ryoka smirked and touched her head, and took the initiative to reach out and hold the palm of Higashino Division: "Ace, let's go, Yumi and the others are still waiting for us." We all said we were going to see the whales this afternoon... It can also get the father to reimburse... And that's a good thing indeed. ”

"Well, let's go back quickly." Tsukasa Higashino lowered his head and looked at the time.

Indeed...

It was already noon, and he had been at Konoe's house all morning.

It's time to leave, too.

"I made a special booking for whale fishing before the trip... I'll give them a call later. ”

Tsukasa Higashino said with a smile.

But when it comes to fishing, it is time to take a closer look on the boat or in the fishing house, and it is impossible for them to really pull fishing nets or something, at most, they will eat whale meat later... And that's the end of the event.

And there is another thing that Higashino Tsukasa is a little concerned about.

That's what Bunta Kageyama said before, the New Century Painting Association...

It's time to come to Aomori Prefecture.

You can't just look at it, right?
