"Stop showing off there, okay? If I could change it, I still want Aunt Sayuri to be my mother." Wan Lihua complained casually, "Aunt Sayuri won't keep a cold face all year round."
"Hahaha..." Izayo could only agree with a wry smile.
Every family is different, and for some things that Izayoi obtained with great care, Wan Lihua would feel comparison and disgust, and even want to change them.
This is also a kind of spiritual wealth.He sincerely sighed.
"But since Aunt Ju is here, should I take some time to go over and say hello?" Ying Lili obediently kept her mouth shut, but asked herself what to do, "After all, I've been living here for almost two months... ..."
Even she didn't feel like a guest anytime soon.
Whether it was Wanlihua or Izayoi, or Mori and Honda who were in charge of safety and daily life in this villa, none of them took her as an outsider to evade and persuade her in various ways.
Yinglili could feel that she could move as freely as Wanlihua here.
"If you want to go there, you can go there anytime. Later, when Mother wants to have lunch, you can go over and have lunch together, and then I will greet you by the way." Sixteen nights suggested.
As a result, before Ying Lili could speak, Wan Lihua objected first, "Forget it. Anyway, we must have dinner together, but Father is also coming over, let's forget about noon."
"Wanlihua..." Shiliuye shook his head helplessly, "Since you mean that, what about Yinglili?"
"Me? I can do either." Ying Lili didn't know which was better.
She was still thinking that the Tachibana family together with Izaya at night was more like a family dinner, and she originally wanted to avoid eating alone.
But in that case, it might make people feel strange, so they secretly dispelled this unnecessary worry.
"Then it's settled." Sixteen nights got up, "Even though it's the weekend, don't just spend too much time on it. There's not much time left for the final exam. If you have trouble studying by yourself, I'll invite Concubine Zhen to come over."
Wan Lihua stretched her waist, closed her eyes and observed Shiliuye's expression, "Aren't you going to review for us this afternoon?"
"No." Izayo replied truthfully.
"Cut... help us to review without losing a piece of meat. I won't attack you at this time." Wan Lihua suddenly looked at Yan Yan and smiled charmingly.
"Mother said she came to see me and you, but she actually came here for family matters." Sixteen nights bent down and softly pinched Wan Lihua's face, "I have to keep up with many things during this time. Let’s talk about it, mother, it’s not complete to rely on information and documents, some things have to be said by me.”
"Okay, okay, I won't tease you~" Wan Lihua snorted, "When it comes to this kind of time, it's very serious, I think Ying Lili is almost convinced, right?"
"Huh? Ah... that..." Ying Lili smiled with difficulty.
She was indeed in a trance just now, looking at Izayoi, she felt that she was a very serious person.But considering that they were still sleeping together on the bed behind them six hours ago, under the same quilt.
That was very unorthodox indeed.
"Because... After all, it is Mother who came here." Izayo nodded frankly, "I also want to show myself, otherwise how dare I ask Mother to give you and the Tachibana House to me."
"..." Wan Lihua blushed speechlessly, and it took her a long time to look away, complaining hesitantly, "I don't know how many times you have to tell this kind of thing to girls, don't forget Ying Lili's words later. share."
"Hey, ah? But our family... There is no family business that I need to inherit..." Ying Lili smiled shyly, "Should I change the content?"
"Is this what you want to complain about?!"
Wan Lihua completely collapsed on the bed.
Chapter 62 What Mothers Do (1)
At 01:30 in the afternoon, in the water pavilion on the pond in the backyard.
The nail clippers clicked, and Izayoi's nails fell out of the storage box behind the nail clippers and landed on the spread paper towels.
"...Because of this situation, the Metropolitan Police Department has been busy with follow-up investigations recently, but according to the situation disclosed by my father, the clues are seriously insufficient, and the progress of the investigation is extremely slow. The files of the former chairman of the Religious Council have been retrieved for the past three years, and they are tracking down the possible murderer..."
Narrating what he knew, Izayoi's voice became smaller and smaller.
"What's the matter? Go on, it's not difficult to double-task at this level." Ju Qianhua didn't raise her eyes, but reminded him in a peaceful tone.
"That... Mother, it's just a nail clipping, there's no need for you to do it yourself..." Izayo looked at the left hand held by Tachibana Chika, who was pinching Izayo's ring finger to help him cut the nails.
Just finished cutting my little finger.This is the so-called dual purpose.
I don't know what happened, but when Izayo helped Tachibana Chika take out the relevant excerpts of the case from the cabinet, she noticed that her nails were a bit long.
Izayoi's nails don't grow very fast, they will only be trimmed after four or five days when they become two to three millimeters wide.
Today is just about the length that can be trimmed. Izayoi wanted to take care of it after talking, but my mother noticed it first.
Then it became a funny scene of a 17-year-old boy asking his mother to cut his nails.
As if he couldn't take care of himself.
"It's just to cut the child's nails, and I don't need to come every time. I just saw it today, so let me try it." Ju Qianhua's tone was still gentle, as if it was just a way to experience something she had never done before. Chance, "It's better to say that Izayoi doesn't like it, in that case, mother, I'll—"
"It's nothing." Shiliuye hurriedly responded.
Since the mother has such a heart, he has no reason not to fulfill it.
"Whether it's me or after Wan Lihua was born, the nail trimming is left to the maid and nanny. I haven't done this kind of thing, if you accidentally cut the flesh, let me know."
"Yeah." Sixteen nights sighed silently.
He thought about this kind of cutting method that is so careful that one finger can be tossed for a minute, and he was afraid that it would be so careless to cut the meat.
According to Ju Qianhua herself, since Wan Lihua was born, she has lived in seclusion most of the time, relying on her familiarity with the Ju family to control everything, like an emperor who has not been in court for many years.
Whether it's a husband or a daughter, it's hard to see each other, let alone caring and cultivating relationships.
"You are like a goldfish that broke into the stagnant water of Tachibana's house. 』
After meeting for the first time and agreeing to adopt him, Tachibana Qianhua added this when she left.
Now that I think about it, it must be his adopted son who gave the entire Ju family a chance to change...
After all, in order for Izayoi to take over the affairs of the Tachibana family more reasonably, Tachibana Chika also changed her reclusive behind-the-scenes style after that and came to the front of the stage.
"So in your opinion, how much trouble will there be over there?"
"No matter how big the trouble is, it won't go to Father." Izayo replied, "Because there are many people who are outraged by the death of an important person in the religious world, but there are also people who are dissatisfied with his actions. There cannot be a one-sided situation." Sound, even the Shinomiya family can't do it."
"That's good. Since Yan has become the police chief, this matter can't be difficult for him." Tachibana Qianhua said lightly, as if for her, the trivial matters in front of her needed more attention.
"However, the whereabouts of Sigong Huangguang can already be determined." Sixteen nights said, "This news came from the emperor, because people from the Shijo family secretly contacted under the instruction of his uncle."
The conversation gradually shifted from the Metropolitan Police Department to the Shinomiya's house. This change did not move Tachibana Chika in the slightest, but it was the fact that she almost cut the flesh off Izayoi's finger just now, which made her nervous for a while. Looking back and forth.
"Emperor... I remember it's your good friend who has the same interests since childhood, right? I don't know who you are now, and why did you disclose such important information to you? Are you or him trusting each other too much?"
"It is precisely because I have known each other since I was a child that I know how to gain the other party's trust. I just thought that if the identity is revealed in the future, even if the emperor knows about it, even if he will not be angry, he will slap me in the face because I have indeed calculated his thoughts. Come up and punch me." Izayoi calmly explained, "He just has such a straightforward temper."
"Really. It's just that your friend is trustworthy, the Shitiao family—"
"After all, it was separated from the Sigong family. It's only been a few decades. It's normal for the roots to be broken."
Sixteen nights changed hands under the signal of his mother. He looked at the cut nails, and it was generally reasonable, and she didn't have the foundation for self-care as she said.
"The mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole is behind. Everyone in the game thinks they are the oriole." Ju Qianhua reminded, "You are very thoughtful, but as a mother, I am still very worried."
"Well." Sixteen nights nodded, "Fortunately, the patriarch of the Sijo family is in his prime, and he hasn't reached the point where the patriarch of the Sijo family is dying and losing control of the family. Besides, the status and words of the emperor and concubine Zhen in the Sijo family Quan, although it is not as important as my mother's reliance in Ju's family now, but it is also a hundred times better than when I was in Sigong's family."
"It's not about reliance, it's entrustment." Ju Qianhua shook the nail clippers, shook the nail shavings on the paper towels, and took out the nail file, ready to polish his nails, "From now on, the Ju family...presumably can... There has been a change in your hands, and my tragedy will never happen again."
"Mother..." Shizayoi was at a loss for words.
He fell silent, watching the polished dust fall from his fingertips, Tachibana Qianhua obviously didn't care about this silence, she cared more attentively for Izayoi's fingers, as if polishing a Jingshan jade.
It didn't take long for the nails on Izayoi's slender fingers to be polished smooth and round. After wiping with a tissue, she showed a satisfied smile.
"As expected of my child, he has a pair of good hands." Ju Qianhua blurted out, "I'm afraid it can be compared with Wanlihua in beauty."
"Mother was joking. I have exercised all year round, and my hands have calluses." Shiliuye shook his head, "What's more, to compare with Wanlihua."
"Take it as a mother's favoritism." Ju Qianhua said, suddenly looking a little lost, "After all... you were not born by me, so just take it as a joke."
"Family love is not limited to blood. My mother doesn't dislike my background as an illegitimate child. I am already grateful."
"You really can talk, it would be great if Wanlihua could learn a little bit."
"Someday it will."
Izayoi did not withdraw the hand that was being held and rubbed, and replied firmly.
Chapter 63 What Mothers Do (2)
"Hmm... Sure enough, I will leave the Tokyo area to you, and there is no problem at all."
A little later, Tachibana Chika sat in the seat where Izayo usually handles work, looked at the various materials and reports that Izayo put here, discussed and negotiated with him, and finally gave a satisfactory compliment.
"Everywhere, the old people of Tachibana's family were willing to put their lives to the test. I was just the one who made the final decision and did what I should do." Izayoi who was sitting on the side said this humbly.
"You don't need to be so modest, it's your credit, it's yours, and no one will take it if it's not yours." Chika Tachibana pointed out calmly, "During lunch, I asked Mori and Shinobu, and they all praised you for your performance during this time in Tokyo."
Although in name they are the ones who are responsible for the life and safety of Izayoi and Wanlihua, but in fact those two people still belong to Tachibana Chika.She didn't mean to ask Mori and Honda to monitor the two of them, but it didn't mean that Mori and Honda could ask questions about Tokyo.
It is also necessary to give a timely response.
"Mother, don't you suspect that I bribed those two people to say good things about me in front of you, so as to cover up my mistakes?" Izayoi was not restrained, but asked teasingly, and asked He showed a probing look.
"If you really mean that, the people and things in the Tachibana family have already been controlled by you, so why are you still doing things so well?" It's so embarrassing to say that you are now Tachibana Juyakuya, not Sigong Shizhu. Even if you still have the blood of Sigong, it's just blood, who you are, I can understand who you are, my mother for seven years."
"Mother's lesson." Izayo lowered his eyes and smiled quietly.
His words and deeds just now can only be said to be half-truths and half-false. It's not that he doesn't believe in his mother's trust, but he doubts himself and whether he is really worthy of his mother's trust.
"However, after leaving Tokyo for seven years, it's good to be able to grasp the situation here in time as soon as I come back." Tachibana Chika nodded and continued to read those materials.
"It's all because the Tachibana family's intelligence network is doing well, I just came here to enjoy the ready-made ones." Izayoi shook his head, "Fortunately, what I'm going to face is the young masters of the Shinomiya family, and I know them quite well. "
"Speaking of this." Tachibana Qianhua glanced at the things on the computer screen, "Is it true that we cooperated with Shinomiya Yunying to invest in the construction of a large-scale production line for basic automotive parts?"
"What does mother mean?"
Ju Qianhua smiled, "I know how you feel, it's just that if this matter continues and we really start to cooperate, it will indeed be of great benefit to the Ju family. But this situation is a win-win situation, and the Ju family will benefit , which means that the Sigong Yunying faction is the same. Even if he is the weakest in the Sigong family, it is inevitable that he will have the possibility of raising a tiger."
"So that's it." Shiliuye nodded, "My lord mother knew, I definitely wouldn't be so kind. Now flirting with Yunying is just to lure the enemy into him. Now, on the bright side, Yunying has to do He is not only representing the Shinomiya family to cooperate with us so as to expand their influence in the family, he is also responsible for suppressing the signs of the Shijo family returning to local heavy industry investment in the process.”
"According to what you mean, you have actually decided to cooperate with the Shitiao family?"
"Yes, but it won't be so fast. After all, there are still a lot of things to prepare, and we need to give the Sijo family some time to withstand the pressure from the Sigong family." Shizaiye explained his thoughts seriously, "Let the Sijo family follow the pressure first." The Shinomiya family already had a confrontation, and we took this opportunity to show it to the outside world, and let our Tachibana family be the one to be won, and in this process, we acted as if we were attracted by the Sijo family and chose to cooperate with them."
"In this way, not only will the Sigong family's purpose of suppressing the branch family be defeated, but it will also make Sigong Yunying, who was unfavorable in the process, be in a more difficult situation." Tachibana Qianhua showed a clear expression, "It's just that the Sigong family will really move as you said?"
Facing the question raised by Tachibana Chika, Izayoi did not have any hesitation.
"Yes. Because the only ones who are willing to cooperate with them and are strong enough are the Tachibana family." Sixteen nights said truthfully, "Compared to entering the game now, the other two will hope to see the result before they act. Who wins?" , who they tend to work with.”
Having said that, Izayoi's words paused, he just wanted to leave room for his mother to think and continue to ask questions, but she showed a urging expression and raised her hand to signal him to continue:
"What's the matter, let's continue talking. Apart from your own situation, there are reasons for your confidence in what you said?"
"I think Mother knows this. I don't need to repeat it." Izayoi lowered his shoulders and said helplessly, "It's a very personal reason."
"Oh... you mean the four emperors who will play a key role in this process." Tachibana Qianhua gave a slight exclamation, "Look at me, I am really old, and I can forget this little thing."
"Where, my mother is not old at all. I still have a lot of things for the Ju family to listen to you, and the Ju family also has more places to rely on you." Sixteen nights shook his head and said softly: "A few days ago , under Wan Lihua's inducement, Concubine Zhen and Emperor successively asked me to help investigate the truth about the fire seven years ago."
"It seems that they haven't forgotten you, even after seven years. You have a group of very good friends, Izayoi."
"...Mmm." Izayoi was a little bit embarrassed.
The emperor is self-evident, but Concubine Zhen... He feels that he must be prepared to face her feelings one day.
"Since you know what's in your mind, you'll be in charge of the rest of the matter. I came to Tokyo because of you, and I'm just here to take a tour." Tachibana Chika nodded, "See you later, the distinguished guests who should be seen, and help you If you support yourself, you will be complete."
"Where is your father?"
Ju Qianhua was taken aback, and she sighed slightly, "Let's talk again. If you think we should meet, then I will meet."
"It's so weird to say that, it's as if I took control of the Tachibana family and put you, the head of the house, under house arrest." Sixteen nights complained with a mournful face.
"It's getting late, you go to rest first, and I'll look at the rest." Tachibana Chika raised her hand to signal Shizaye to come closer, and touched his head, "Don't forget that you are still a student, the final exam Keep going, I'm looking forward to your results."
"Is this an urging to me as the head of the family?"
"No, it's just the idea of being a mother."
"I see."
Izayoi's heart warmed, and he responded quietly.
Chapter 64 "Corpse"
While Wan Lihua and Ying Lili were busy preparing for the final exam review, they were not so worried about the sixteen nights of the final exam, and they were secretly preparing for another matter.
