Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

However, she couldn't very well help Shigu Yan'an, who was straightening her back and scolding her two sons.

"But why would they actively seek trouble with me..."

"Just like how you usually look down on those country bumpkins, if those country bumpkins didn't act all timid and fearful, wouldn't you get very angry?"

Shigu Yan'an's tone turned cold.

His second son's lack of understanding always surprised him.

The eldest son was barely sensible enough.

Even if one harbors ill intentions, one can still barely survive because of caution.

What about the second son?

Shinomiya Gan'an truly felt like he was a father all over again.

Otherwise, why would someone so old still need to teach their second son how to conduct himself in society?

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Father, please don't be angry..."

Shigu Hongzheng nodded and bowed repeatedly.

Shinomiya Yan'an glanced at him and didn't continue lecturing him.

"You three brothers, go out first."

"Yes."

Huang Guang, Hong Zheng, and Yun Ying, who hadn't said a word from beginning to end, all responded in unison.

Soon after, as the three left, Shinomiya Gan'an was also being helped by his wife, Naya Take.

"Thank you for your hard work, Lord Yan'an."

"I just hope that Huang Guang and Hong Zheng can be more sensible."

Sigong Yan'an sighed.

He watched as Shinomiya Yan'an and Meiya Taketsu showed their affection for each other.

The girl who remained in the cubicle looked dazed.

The girl's name is Kaguya Shinomiya.

Even though she was dressed in a very conservative outfit, her natural beauty and elegance were still undeniable.

Her delicate face was framed by a pair of wine-red eyes that gleamed with a clear, cool light.

If you look closely...

One could sense an indescribable daze flickering deep within those eyes…

The mother, who had been in a deep sleep for ten years, has awakened.

How can my father and mother still be so loving?

It's hard for Kaguya Shinomiya not to experience strange emotions.

"So, was the reason my father didn't want to see me when I was little because of my mother?"

"Is it because my birth put my mother in a bad state?"

"Or perhaps you don't want to be reminded of your mother by seeing me?"

Kaguya Shinomiya was deep in thought.

More than half a year has passed, and she has gradually become familiar with her mother.

My mother occasionally mentioned her relationship with my father.

Her father's attitude towards her also became warmer than before...

Sometimes, Kaguya Shinomiya wonders if she's dreaming.

If that's the case, she hopes she can continue dreaming.

Never to wake up.

"And Kaguya's marriage also needs to be taken care of."

"You'll be in charge of finding out about that."

"—?!" Kaguya Shinomiya was slightly bewildered.

They were still listening to their parents' sweet words and feeling the beauty of love.

How did we end up talking about her?

"Kaguya, you're old enough to get married. If you wait any longer, people will start to look down on you."

Naoya Takeshi smiled and looked at her daughter, Shinomiya Kaguya.

Kaguya Shinomiya lowered her eyes, not daring to meet her mother's gaze.

The complex emotions of panic and shyness she felt made her timid all at once.

She could no longer maintain her composure.

"I want to stay with my father and mother forever..."

"No problem, because it's a wife-visiting system, so the husband comes to see you."

Mingye Zhu's smile remained unchanged.

Kaguya Shinomiya, the daughter, has excellent grades. By all accounts, she should know about the visiting wife system, right?

Can only say.

The sudden shock startled the daughter.

They had completely forgotten all the knowledge they had learned.

"……what."

Kaguya Shinomiya was completely dumbfounded.

Visiting one's wife?

Yes, the practice of visiting one's wife.

The current marriage system allows the man to visit the woman's residence periodically.

However, there are also cases where the man brings the woman to his residence.

This period is a transitional time when the form of marriage shifts from the mother to the father, and it is very complex.

"Don't worry, your mother will find you a suitable partner, and your father will also help in the search."

"Ah."

Hearing his wife slyly shift the topic to him, Shinomiya Yan'an still solemnly responded.

This is his only daughter.

He hoped to arrange his only daughter's marriage before he passed away.

To prevent his sons from acting recklessly for a little personal gain.

"I understand, Father, Mother."

Kaguya Shinomiya politely bowed.

Ming Yezhu smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll choose a husband who loves you."

"..." Kaguya Shinomiya simply lowered her head, showing no intention of replying.

He didn't know who his future husband would be.

However, she believes that her loving parents will definitely choose a suitable one.

She will comply.

She wouldn't care about anything else.

Being with my father and mother is enough.

"Although I don't want to say it that way."

"But there's no man in the world who wouldn't fall for me."

"It's only a matter of time."

The thought flashed through my mind.

Kaguya Shinomiya, who was still somewhat proud, gradually calmed down.

As long as the man is suitable and you take the initiative, there's nothing you can't accomplish.

If conditions permit.

Kaguya Shinomiya hopes to gradually mold her future husband into a man worthy of her.

Wow!

Wow! !

The rain was torrential, and the world was covered with dense rain lines.
