Chapter 216: In Tianhai's Family, Sakakihara Le Faces an Irreparable Situation (Birthday Party 3)
Dining at Tianhai's house and outside, snowflakes are flying.
Indoors, it was peaceful, and the snow of the sea was eating quietly on the right side of Soichiro of the sky, and her little face as innocent as snow made her look indisputable.
Of course, the peaceful interior environment belongs only to her.
......
"I heard that you've been dating for a while?"
Facing the old man of Tianhai who was sitting at the table of the Japanese room, Suzu Kamihara didn't want to lie. For Qi Mingyue, it was already benevolent and righteous for her to be able to say those three words just now.
Leave it to me alone!
Do whatever you like!
So, Suzu Kamihara used his eyes to decisively throw the question to Tianhai Qimingyue, who was determined to eat breakfast.
The old man also looked at the little granddaughter's face.
"Yes." Tianhai Qi Mingyue agreed very calmly.
"How long have you been dating?"
"Less than a month."
"You like him?"
"Hmm."
"Because of what, talent?"
"What I like is his persistence in trying to catch up on one thing." Tianhai Qi Mingyue This is of course a polite remark, but it is also a reminder to someone that he should keep the promise he promised.
“......”
Soichiro Amami didn't comment, and then went to look at Kamihara Le again.
The meaning of this look is incomprehensible.
Or observe? Or scrutiny? Or is it just the boyfriend who is looking at his granddaughter as an elder?
I can't guess, if I try to take on the identity of the head of the Tianhai family to examine Shen Yuanle, I still can't guess the meaning of the old man's eyes, and what the old man is going to say next.
Soichiro Amami withdrew his gaze, unhurriedly resting his gaze on the steaming tea bowl serving rice in front of him, and he reached out to open the lid while saying in a deep voice:
"You guys, Maodian and I mentioned it. There are too many things I don't want to talk about, and a situation like yours, in terms of your respective identities, is absolutely not allowed. I wouldn't have allowed it before. ”
Soichiro Amami sandwiched the steamed chicken in front of him, poured the chicken slices with the broth with a small spoon, and put it in his mouth to chew slowly.
......
The whole process was only the sound of the collision between the fast son and the porcelain bowl, and everyone was waiting for the old man to continue to speak.
It wasn't until he had completely eaten the chicken that the old man pinched the porcelain kuai, looked at the bowl in front of him again, and continued:
"Do you understand what you're carrying on you?"
He did not say this to anyone, nor did he show it with his eyes.
But there is no doubt that the old man is asking Kamihara Le, that is, asking him.
Faced with the question, Kamihara did not answer immediately, because the waves in his heart had not yet calmed down.
He was still shocked by the answer given by Ah Ling.
What's going on here?!
Ah Ling, Ah Ling, how did you answer Qi Mingyue?!
Kamihara Le tried his best to keep his facial expression from collapsing, and he also deliberately took a look at Tianhai Jiuliuli and found that she was also in a state of confusion.
She obviously didn't recover from Ah Ling's answer.
She doesn't know either!
What to do?
The old man obviously mistook his current girlfriend for Qi Mingyue!
......
'Seven bright moons? ’
Tianhai Shigeru, who was sitting across the table, frowned slightly when he heard Ah Ling's answer, and he didn't expect that Shenyuan Ling answered Qi Mingyue, not Jiu Liuli.
Slip of the tongue?
Definitely not.
After getting the old man's inquiry, Qi Mingyue naturally agreed.
Even if he, the father, hadn't known in advance that the relationship between Jiu Liuli and Kamihara Le was better, he was afraid that he would have been deceived by his youngest daughter.
Qi Mingyue also admitted that she likes Kamihara music.
What's going on here?
Regardless of whether it is true or not, with the experience and intuition he has accumulated in dealing with various commercial cases for a long time, Tianhai Maodian knows that there are a lot of tricks in this.
He couldn't figure out the doorway yet.
Wait and see.
......
Miwa Amami... As a mother, she is also full of questions.
How did Ah Ling answer that it was Qi Mingyue?
Why did Qi Mingyue still agree?
Why does Qi Mingyue still admit that she likes Ah Le?
Isn't Jiu Liuli and Ah Le in love?
Ah Le and Jiu Liuli haven't reconciled yet?
One problem after another was thrown, but it was not solved at all.
Tianhai Meihe had a faint intuition in her heart, which made her start to guess: "Qi Mingyue actually likes her own son too."
Can Qi Mingyue's character be too much... Absurd?
But it doesn't seem right, a while ago, Qi Mingyue suddenly chased to Shikoku's hometown... This incident already made her suspicious.
In addition, she said that she and Ah Le have met since childhood.
No, Qi Mingyue, this girl... Don't you really like Ah Le, right?
It's scary to think about.
Two girls actually like their own sons at the same time?!
Ah Le, what kind of sin have you created?!
......
Raku Kamihara captures a variety of emotions, eyes, and expressions at this silent table.
Ah Ling's dodging, uncle's caution, mother's surprise, Jiu Liuli's sluggishness, and the snow of the sky and the sea eat quietly.
All of this, coupled with the old man's deliberately pressured eyes, oppressed Shen Yuanle's heart to beat faster, and he was about to lose his breath.
What is this?
He felt like he was walking on a tightrope every day, and his scalp was tingling.
With the belief that he couldn't give up easily, Kamihara's brain was running rapidly.
He strings together everything he knows.
......
Thinking about it everywhere, he gradually understood.
There is no doubt that this is a trick of Tianhai Qimingyue.
Even if he didn't admit it himself, under Qi Mingyue's promise, the old man had no conditions not to believe it.
In addition, Qi Mingyue used "promise" to gag his mouth.
Let yourself fulfill her promise of "not giving up", and there is no way for me to explain it directly to the old man.
Is... What a trick!
Kamihara had nothing to say.
But here's even better:
Through the previous conversation and attitude with the old man, the old man obviously did not agree with his relationship with his granddaughter, because he had a family identity.
Even if the righteous brother and sister are within the scope of the law, the old man is not very willing.
[Shigeru and I mentioned it]
This shows that the uncle has talked with the old man for a while about him and Jiu Liuli.
Judging from what the old man said just now, the uncle has succeeded, and he doesn't object much to the relationship between the two now.
That is to say-
The uncle helped him say good things to Jiu Liuli, and made the old man admit the relationship between the two.
And now, the benefits that Jiuliuli deserves have been transferred by Qimingyue!
Let Qi Mingyue pick peaches!
Jiuliuli is stupid.
......
"I know..."It took a long time for Kamihara to come back to his senses and answer the question that Old Man Tianhai had just asked.
No, it really doesn't work.
Xiao July's trick is too ruthless.
What he needs is balance, not imbalance!
Jiuliuli is now in a state of being hit hard.
He was trying to think about how to help Jiu Liuli talk.
Simply, let the old man understand that the twins like him!
"What do you think is the difference between the interactions in our family and the interactions of ordinary people?"
“... It's not a casual relationship. ”
Soichiro Amami was quite satisfied, with a "very understanding" look.
He went on to say:
"You should have heard from Maodian's mouth that I have nine daughters, and I have always said to them, don't take the matter of relationship too lightly and simply, the credibility of the family is reflected in your every move. I often warn them that they must not damage the reputation of Tianhai when they are away from home...... I don't interfere in my daily life, and I don't like to interfere, but this is the only thing I can't give into. ”
“......”
It's over, and now the last way is gone.
As soon as these words came out, Shen Yuan Le understood that he must not let the old man know that the two sisters liked him.
He didn't agree much in the first place, and let him know that both of his granddaughters liked the same person......
Everything is messed up.
"Do you understand what I mean?"
“... Got it. Kamihara replied with a lot of pressure.
"Understood... I want to think about it..... Well..... Qi Mingyue turned sixteen in October this year, and you are more than a year older than her, that is, seventeen years old and about to turn eighteen. ”
Soichiro Amami places the porcelain fast son on the fast pillow. He pondered for a moment, and then, without question, said:
"In this way, on the day you are eighteen years old, you and Qi Mingyue will be married first."
Kamihara Raku: "!? ”
Suzu Kamihara was surprised: 'Huh?! This is going to be an engagement? ’
Tianhai Qimingyue drank tea: "The time can be a little earlier." ”
"You're in a hurry, but eighteen is just right."
“... Grandfather! ”
Tianhai Jiu Liuli couldn't sit still at all, she stood up, and wanted to loudly accuse Qi Mingyue of being a thief.
But what can she do?
I can't tell my grandfather that I like Kamihara music.
Can't tell grandpa that he's a real girlfriend......
The good literacy on weekdays and the idea of understanding that grandpa can't find out the clues made Tianhai Jiuliuli still try to suppress his emotions.
Calm down, be calm.
If you say it at this time, it's all over.
Tianhai Jiuliuli obviously glanced at Tianhai Qimingyue, only to find that this sister was still drinking tea.
A posture of "sister, this time I won".
It's so damning!
Tianhai Jiuliuli did it again, angry in his heart, but he was not carried away by anger.
She did her best to maintain a level-eyed appearance, trying to warn herself not to be angry, to be calm, calm.
It is precisely because of her efforts that everyone did not notice anything unusual.
Soichiro Amami looked at the nine glasses of Amami, who wanted to speak and stopped, and he was not surprised that someone questioned it.
"Nine glasses?"
"Yes, grandpa."
"What are you trying to say?"
"I just think... If you get engaged to Qi Mingyue so early, won't it be inappropriate? ”
The old man waited for a moment, and then continued while picking up the dishes:
"Of course, it's not that simple, and if he doesn't meet the standards I need on the day of eighteen, the engagement is not to be discussed. There's no way to get engaged so hastily, but your sister seems to be in a hurry. ”
Seven bright moons, she... Can she not be anxious?
Tianhai Jiuliuli was anxious.
If it's really engaged, it's really engaged... What should I do?
Soichiro Amami said to Kamihara again:
"Do you know why I'm engaged to you so early?"
"Understand." Kamihara replied.
"Well, that's okay, I'm not going to beat around the bush with you. I knew about you from Shigeru Dian beforehand, and I privately asked Tachibana Kiyohara to help me pay attention to your performance in school... There's a high probability that Maodian told you about this...... That said, I've been following you for a long time.
"In my opinion, you are a clear person worth cultivating, regardless of your grades... The mere fact that you are 'motivated' in school is enough for me to give you a certain amount of time. ”
"Understood." Kamihara nodded.
"I got you engaged so early, and my purpose was very simple - to tie you to this ship of our Tianhai family early. Only after you get engaged, I will feel more comfortable cultivating you through family resources. ”
Soichiro Amami deliberately paused for a moment.
"As the heir to the family."
“......”
The Tianhai family is now full of daughters, and in a certain way, it is really embarrassing for the old man.
"Naturally, there are prerequisites for this," Soichiro Amami continued, "You need to meet several of my conditions, first, change your surname to Amami after you get engaged; second, after graduation, take over part of the family company and learn management; Thirdly, it will not be long before I will throw you a rotten account that continues to lose money, and you need to turn it around when you are eighteen years old, that is, in these few months;
"Agree to these conditions, and when you are the right age, you can get engaged to Qi Mingyue."
The last one is the most important thing, the old man wants to see his ability to solve problems.
But
...... Wrong!
Not at all!
Why did he suddenly agree to get engaged to Qi Mingyue?
Didn't the old man ask about his relationship with his granddaughter a few seconds ago?
"It's too early." Tianhai Maodian suddenly interjected.
Soichiro Amami followed the voice and looked at his son.
Tianhai Maodian met his father's gaze: "It's too early to get engaged, and your investigation is too early, and Le is only in his first year of high school now." ”
"Then you want me to marry off my granddaughter without doing anything." Soichiro Amami didn't fluctuate when he spoke, but he was stating a fact that was beyond doubt.
"It's a matter for juniors."
"That's what you said to me when you married the English one."
Tianhai Maodian didn't see his father's face, and continued: "It's a little hasty that you want to be the heir, you have so many sons-in-law, you have to choose." ”
"Shiran, you understand what it means to be young."
"There's no need to cultivate so early since childhood," Tianhai Maodian returned to his gaze, ignoring the pressure of his father's eyes, "It's not too late to talk about this matter after Ah Le High School graduates, you suddenly want to promise you the choice you gave him now, have you considered his own thoughts?" ”
"If you want to get something, you should naturally give something."
"It's just wishful thinking on your part."
"You didn't listen to me at first, but now you're coming back? What about the woman who asked you to run to England before? ”
"Just by the facts, you don't have to always go through old accounts."
"It's not going over old accounts, it's teaching you how to talk to your father."
The smell of gunpowder between Tianhai and his son is getting stronger and stronger, and the pressure in Kamihara's heart is getting bigger and bigger.
Especially the nine glasses.
As soon as Jiu Liuli heard that he was going to be engaged to Qi Mingyue, his heart was like ashes, and Shen Yuanle felt uncomfortable in his heart.
She must not have thought that she was still a decent girlfriend one second, and she was beaten as a third party the next.
Grandpa arranges the engagement aggressively and won't let anyone else intervene at all.
He wouldn't even listen to his uncle.
What to do?
Kamihara frowned deeply.
No, I have to say something.
He must try to resolve the current anxious situation, calm down Jiu Liuli's mood, and stop the old man from getting engaged to himself.
First of all, it must be remembered that the old man cannot be let know that he has the idea of "I want it".
"Guys, can you hear me a few words?" Kamihara stood up with his hands on the table.
......
Moment
The eyes of the entire dining room looked at him, including Soichiro Amami and Shigerunori Amami, who were arguing. Even Uncle Sakura, who had been standing at the door and sighed in his heart, "The old man and the young master quarreled again", also looked at Kamihara Le.
Except for the snow of the sky and the sea that has been eating in small bites, she has no quarrel with the world.
The large spaciousness and quiet of the room.
The air was so silent that Kamihara couldn't help but hold his breath, deliberately improving the perception of his five senses, and inadvertently observed the many famous knives placed behind the old man of Tianhai, as well as the huge "heart" character calligraphy.
Under the gaze of a crowd.
Soichiro Amami's gaze was particularly stressful.
Kamihara Le first breathed a sigh of relief and nodded to the old man: "First of all, thank you grandpa for your hospitality at this breakfast, and thank you grandpa for thinking so much about me, but I think it's too early for the wedding." ”
When Tianhai Jiu Liuli heard this, he looked directly at Shen Yuan Le.
What was going on in her mind was unknown for the time being.
Tianhai Qi Mingyue was quite disgusted that Kamihara Le suddenly interrupted the good thing between the two of them.
From my sister's point of view, he must be a guy who thinks about people for the sake of others.
But from the perspective of the Seven Bright Moons......
Forget it, it's his improvisation.
If he doesn't care about his sister, he will look down on him.
Because that means he doesn't care about people at all.
"Are you negating my decision?"
"Yes, because Grandpa's decision is not in line with you now."
"Why?"
Under the gaze of the head of the family, Kamihara replied with a normal expression: "When I was eighteen years old, Qi Mingyue was only sixteen years old, which is an age for a young man who is only in the first year of high school... As my uncle said, it's too small. ”
"Being young is not a problem." Soichiro Amami was obviously displeased, and his brows furrowed.
"On the contrary, grandpa... It's because of your young age that you can't get married too early, you're the head of the Tianhai family, and you must know the changes in values since modern times, right? This will certainly affect the judgment of people today on some things. And in the long span of time from the engagement to the marriage, the values will also change in the process of growing up, and there will be various uncontrollable factors during this period...... If all these factors are to be erased, the constraints will inevitably be aggravated......"
"What are you trying to say?" Soichiro Amami kind of understood what he meant.
"Premature marriage and dating bind people, presumably grandpa also understands what premature bondage means, right?"
"......" Soichiro Amami was silent.
Tianhai Maodian also fell silent when he heard this.
Kamihara's tone is tactful, and his movements and demeanor are very polite.
His words are actually reminding the old man that premature restraint will lead people to the old path of Uncle Tianhai.
This is the last thing that the old man wants to see and the least like to see.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Soichiro Amami didn't feel that Kamihara was offended, which made the old man take a look at his little daughter, the snow of the heavenly sea.
......
Kamihara Le immediately added: "Of course I have no problem with the second condition, as soon as I graduate, I can have a decent business management job, but it is something I can't ask for, as for the third condition, ......."
Kamihara Le deliberately straightened his waist and glanced at Tianhai Shigenori with his hands on the table:
"I also want to thank my uncle for helping me speak just now, but I don't think there is any need to refuse the test of this third condition, I am confident enough and can completely solve the problem given by my grandfather."
"Faith?"
"Yes, faith."
Soichiro Amami looked at him and smiled interestingly, the slight wrinkles on his face revealing that he was surprised by Kamihara's answer. He tugged his hand into the sleeve of the gray-black kimono:
"Is it when you don't know what test I'm going to give?"
"Yes."
"Even so, can you say that you have faith in yourself?"
"Yes, with confidence."
"Haha, interesting. What a cocky and funny young man. ”
Soichiro Amami slapped the table with one hand, which caused Amami no Yuki to glance at his father, his eyes full of doubt.
The old man stood up with a smile, and he walked up to the old butler Sakura, and took the fluffy cloak from his hand.
After tying the cloak around his neck, the old man stood at the door of the Japanese room, looking like he was about to go out.
He said to Kamiharaku:
"Very well, although arrogance is a bit arrogant, but very few people have been arrogant in front of me... Remembering that you are my step-grandson, I will choose a more difficult test for you as appropriate. But if you can't—"
"Thank you, grandpa." Kamihara immediately nodded in thanks.
"You're pretty good."
Soichiro Amami shook his head with a smile as he explained to the people who were still dining that he was going to the club. Finally, he glanced at his little daughter, who was sitting on the other side of the table.
Snow ......
All kinds of experiences flashed before my eyes.
Soichiro Amami also had some nostalgia in his eyes.
Perhaps, the child was right, too many restraints were not conducive to her growth as herself.
Perhaps, it's time for a little change.
Then, Soichiro Amami walked out of the dining room, and the back of the old man in the gray and black kimono disappeared from everyone's eyes.
After Sakura Bo also bent down to say goodbye to everyone, he also temporarily disappeared from everyone's field of vision.
......
The head of the house disappeared, and Kamihara Le followed with a sigh of relief.
Comfortable.
But what is it called?
Aren't you here to accompany Ah Ling to the birthday party today?
Have such a stressful birthday party?
Tuk tuk.
At this moment, there was another abrupt sound that broke the silence.
Tianhai Shigerunori tapped the table with his fingers, his expression was extremely serious, and his eyes were on the faces of Kamihara Le, Tianhai Seven Bright Moon, Tianhai Nine Glass, and Kamihara Suzu.
Eyes swept over one by one.
Then, in the voice of the serious middle-aged man who was a lawyer, he said earnestly to the crowd:
"Okay, let's talk to me about you, what's going on."
.....。
