Chapter 60: Family Gatherings

"Kids, come and eat." Chieko's voice came from the kitchen.

The family gathered at the dining table to watch the sumptuous dinner, there has been no such scene for a long time, for this time Nakamori Akina homecoming party, it can be seen that the mother has put a lot of thought into it, even if it is the previous annual leave, the family does not have such an opportunity.

Compared to Tokyo's so-called delicacies from the mountains and seas, the fried shrimp made by her mother is a different flavor, and Akina Nakamori likes this unforgettable taste, as if it is full of her mother's love for her.

On the other hand, she prefers a family atmosphere, and she can finally see her family reunited, and even her father, who used to be indifferent to his family at the dinner table, often brings food to her bowl.

"Recently, Akina's single has been really popular, and my classmates in school are looking for your record store on vacation."

The second brother, Akema Nakamori, said appreciatively to his sister Akina Nakamori while eating sushi.

"Your sister has been very persistent and hard-working on anything she thinks of since she was a child, so she has the results she has now, you should learn more from her, instead of being idle at school.... The future of life says that you decide for yelves. ”

Chieko looked at the children who were maturing, and she was inevitably a little worried, except for Akina, the other children still didn't seem to have found the direction they should have.

Akio Nakamori drank some wine and looked at the food on the table with satisfaction, but his wife's words happened to be bad at this time. He couldn't figure it out, isn't the situation at home bad now? My daughter has become a big star, I don't have to live the hard life I used to have, I can buy whatever I want, and when I go out, she is glamorous, and she is not bad for money, so there is nothing to complain about.

Dissatisfaction appeared on his face, and he arrogantly slapped his chopsticks on the table, as if looking down on his wife from the moral high ground, "You don't always point fingers at the children, just let it be." ”

Chieko's gaze turned sharply to her nosy husband, "You are not qualified to say this, such kindness is not necessary. ”

"Chieko, this is the Nakamori family."

At this moment, Chieko seemed to be choked by the throat of Akio Nakamori's words, and did not fight again, her eyes showed a faint sadness, originally she didn't call this husband who was fooling around outside back today, and she didn't know where he got the news, so she came back to catch this meal.

The eldest sister Nakamori Akiko knew that it was not good to be indifferent at this time, although in the past, her father often cursed her mother when she came back from outside, but her mother at that time didn't care at all, and at that time, Chieko would only devote her body and mind to these children.

I don't know when it began, it should be said that it started when the third sister Mingcai debuted and made the family's economy better, and the father, who they had been strangers to since childhood, began to pay more attention to them.

What the mother cared about, the father began to intervene, and the children younger than her at home may not be able to see it, including Akina, but she knows that she and her mother have actually seen through the mercenary intentions of her father Nakamori Akio.

When she chose to participate in the draft, her mother hoped that the children could become glamorous stars like Miyuki Nakajima, and hoped that the children could find their own way; At first, her father was also very concerned about this, but she also knew that her father cared about the benefits that would come after becoming famous.

Therefore, after she regretted falling off the list, her father showed more indifference.

Unexpectedly, Akina miraculously found an opportunity, and after two failures, she is still persistent... In the end, she succeeded, she was very envious of her sister, but she also knew that this was her sister's deserved, who told her to choose to give up in the first place?

Now that my father can sit happily at home, I finally see the golden light on Akina's body.

Back at the dinner table, looking at the oppressive atmosphere, although she and Ming Cai are completely sisters of two ages, but seeing her parents like this, she, as the eldest sister in the family, still has to stand up.

After years of rivalry between her parents, she also found a solution to it. Looking for room to turn back from their topic, which will only intensify, she chose to change the subject, "Mother, didn't you send Akina's record company separately to explain the discourse?" Let's listen to it in the evening. ”

Chieko looked at her eldest daughter, Akiko Nakamori, comprehended her daughter's kindness, and then looked at Akira Nakamori, looked at the chopsticks she stopped, and felt a little blamed in her heart.

In the past, she would not usually do this in front of her children, no matter how excessive her husband was, she would only treat the other party as an outsider, but not long ago, she had to be wary of this fox and fake husband.

Chieko sandwiched the sushi on the plate to her daughter's plate and smiled with relief, "Akina, my mother has listened to your record, and Mr. Terabayashi also said that you are very talented." ”

Akina Nakamori smiled at her mother embarrassedly, "Mom's singing is better than mine." ”

"Akina has grown up." Chieko touched her head and walked to the kitchen to serve the soup in the pot.

Akio Nakamori glanced at his wife, looked at Akina whose eyes were smiling like crescent moons, and then squeezed out a smile and asked kindly, "Akina, that young man named Kenichiro Nozaki is the son of the president of your office." ”

In response to her father's question, Akina Nakamori didn't feel anything strange, but just answered truthfully, "Yes, how did my father know." ”

"Oh, you've only debuted for a year now, and you need a lot of help in the firm, I think this young man is good, you have to get more familiar with him, and try your best to meet people's requirements."

Nakamori Akio said his advice unsatisfactorily, and looked at the sake in his hand again, speaking of which, this was still given by the son, and the other party's wealth made him happy.

I thought that Mingcai's agency was in the hands of his wife, he couldn't find any loopholes to exploit, and his wife didn't give him a chance, and he couldn't grab it, but he didn't expect that the people from his daughter's office would take the initiative to find him and ask him to pay proper attention to Akina Nakamori's affairs.

Akina Nakamori was a little confused, at this time her father asked what she was doing, but her father was her father after all, and she couldn't disobey it, so she could only respond, "Okay, I know." ”

"Hahaha, eat more Ming Cai, and sing better." Akio Nakamori got what he wanted and said comfortably.

.......

After eating, leaving a table of dishes and chopsticks, Chieko is accustomed to cleaning up, and the eldest sister Mingzi and the second sister Minghui are helping on the side....

Akina Nakamori saw her mother's emaciated face, and she couldn't help but feel a little sad, it seemed that her mother's illness had not yet recovered.

She picked up the plates on the table and followed her mother into the kitchen, doing housework as when she was a child, her heart was very calm, she used to do her best to do this, she would be praised by her mother, she still misses that feeling.

Chieko looked at her daughter's serious appearance, and also thought of when Akina was young, she didn't have the comfort she had at that time, and now she just feels sorry for her daughter's filial piety, and her daughter works in Tokyo all day long and takes care of herself alone.

She also learned from her daughter's producer, Mr. Si Lin Chao, that her daughter still insisted on recording at three o'clock in the morning, and she had to record the show at eight o'clock in the morning.

"Akina, go and rest, these things are okay with Mom."

Akina Nakamori shook her head and smiled happily, "No, I want to stay with my mother for a while, I'm my mother's sun girl." ”

Chieko looked at her daughter's affectionate appearance and knew that she couldn't help her daughter, so she sighed and smiled to accept her daughter's kindness.

"What a clever little ghost." Chieko pinched Mingna's nose with her hand, and her face was full of happiness.
