Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

"I seem to be dreaming about Kyosuke these days. If he were here... never mind, this era is definitely not suitable for someone like him who's a social butterfly."

Goto Ichiri muttered to himself.

She still didn't want her only friend to come to this inconvenient world and suffer.

She didn't care much; it just meant she became a complete shut-in after dropping out of school.

She had thought about this day before.

It means not working after graduating from high school and staying at home as a shut-in... This has now been directly realized.

I don't know whether to be happy or sad.

"Speaking of which, what did I say to Kyosuke in my dream?" Goto Ichiri scratched his head.

She doesn't remember much about her dream.

But I still remember that it was Kyosuke who took the initiative to contact her this time, I was so touched!

Unfortunately, these are all just dreams.

So lonely. So painful.

In fact, there are still people who care about Goto Ichiri.

That is, her younger sister, Goto Jiri.

Goto Jiri, along with his Shiba Inu Jimi, played with Sushang in the bamboo forest.

"Jimmy, catch it! If you catch it, there'll be more jerky!"

Su Chang exclaimed excitedly.

She had always wanted to have a pet, but it wasn't customary to keep pets in her tribe.

It's permissible to keep them in the manor, but Su Chang dared not mention it to Kosaka Kyosuke, otherwise her older sister would definitely be furious.

This is very certain about Su Chang.

Su Chang had a general assessment of how angry her sister was.

For example, when she carried her older sister here, she saw that her sister wasn't angry at all, but rather quite happy, though she didn't show it on her face.

"Wang Wang-"

A Shiba Inu leaped swiftly and caught a piece of light wooden plank with its teeth.

Su Chang excitedly barked "Woof!" and then excitedly hugged the Shiba Inu Jimiheng, giving it the pork jerky she was carrying.

“Sister Sushang really likes dogs,” said Goto Niri.

"Yes, but my sister won't let me raise it, so I don't dare to mention it."

"Sister Suchang, did your sister also marry the same husband as you?"

"Yes, we are very happy~ We are very free to do whatever we want~ You are so cute, you can wait ten years and serve Kyosuke-sama with me."

"I've never even met Lord Kyosuke."

"Here you go, this is it."

Su Chang showed the photos she carried with her to Goto Jiri.

Goto Jiri exclaimed "Wow!"

"This is Lord Kyosuke?"

Leaving aside the matter of the photos for now, Goto Jiri discovers that her father's boss is very handsome and seems to be as gentle as her father.

"It's Lord Kyosuke. Let me tell you about many of the things he did~"

"Okay."

Goto Jiri listened with interest.

She gradually became acquainted with Komachi, Megumi, and others, and she was indeed very curious about this head of the family.

Since she didn't attend kindergarten here and couldn't play with other children, she naturally sought out new friends. Fortunately, Komachi really enjoyed playing with her.

And there was the plain-clad woman in front of me.

They are all very kind older sisters~

Fifteen minutes later, Goto Jiri, who had briefly heard about Kousaka Kyosuke's deeds, opened her mouth slightly.

The head of the family has accomplished so much in just one year!

"So? Kyosuke-sama is amazing, isn't she? Would you like to marry her?"

"I'm still young, even if I wanted to get married, it's not possible. Can my older sister take over for now?"

"But communication is a real problem for them."

“This can be changed,” Goto Jiri said enthusiastically.

Su Chang tilted her head and thought for a moment.

"I'd better ask Lord Kyosuke. I'll have to answer you later. He's in his bedchamber with other people today."

"It looks so complicated..."

"It's not that complicated. It's just that each person takes turns keeping you company, talking to you, playing games, reading to you, practicing calligraphy, and so on."

"what……"

Goto Jiri is a bit slow.

Is this what companionship is like?

If the older sister still has a guitar, will the head of the family play guitar with her?

No, it's still a question whether the head of the family would even approve of my sister.

A while later...

Feeling that it was about time, Su Chang bid farewell to Goto Niri and returned to her bedchamber.

After bringing Jimi-Hen home, Goto Jiri secretly told his mother, Michiyo, about the "little bit of information" he had just obtained.

Michiyo's eyes lit up as she was processing dried fish and dried meat.

"So Yili still has a chance to get married!"

"Yes, that's wonderful news, if only my sister could communicate normally."

"This is a bit difficult, Erli. We're counting on you from now on!"

"Mom is making things difficult for you, you should at least try a little harder."

"Will do."

Michiyo said happily.

So it turns out the eldest daughter still has hope of getting married.

With the lady being so easy to talk to, the situation is really looking very good!

In reality, Michiyo didn't have much ambition to marry into a wealthy or powerful family; she just wanted her eldest daughter to have a husband who could take care of her.

Michiyo would have been willing to date any other good man.

Unfortunately, this era is unlikely to return.

Therefore, seize the opportunity when you find a suitable one.

Lying in the room, Goto Ichiri vaguely heard some information related to marriage, and his whole body stiffened, standing up straight.

"Mom, Mom is going to sell me..."

How can this be?

This is absolutely impossible!

She doesn't believe it!

It must be an illusion!

Yes! It's an illusion!

Goto Ichiri burrowed deep into the blankets and curled up into a ball.

Da Da Da~

"Sister, I'm coming in!"

Swish~

The sound of a door opening!

Goto Ichiri was trembling violently. Was he going to be the vanguard and sell her off?

Is it possible to kneel down and "turn" my sister to the other side?

"Sister, you should go out for a walk once in a while. Staying at home all the time will make you look like a weirdo."

“I’m not going out!”
