The family has a partner for each and every one. Agnes and Luna, Yomi and Mana
Oh, yesterday, Luna-chan became Agnes’ friend, right?
Yeah, she knows that one.
Misuzu nods.
The two are smart, and so it helps a lot.
Each one has someone close to their age that’s easy to talk to, right? Of course, I listen to everyone’s suggestion, but I can’t decide on everything. There are others that’s easy to discuss between women. Therefore, the family’s partied up two by two I said.
Oh, I get it now. Yo-chan wants Mii-chan and me to find someone to discuss ideas other than Yo-chan, right?
That’s right
I smiled wryly.
Then, Misuzu
I looked at Misuzu.
Yes?
Who do you find hard to talk to in the family?
I ask her purposely.
danna-sama, that’s
Misuzu hesitates.
It’s Tsukiko
Edie said. Misuzu twitched.
Thought so. The only one who can deal with the lady of Kouzuki house is the Takakura shrine maiden
Since she’s the successor of a distinguished family, it has to be the shrine maiden of an old shrine.
Tsukiko can also read minds. You can never lie nor scheme against her. She’s also at the same age as Misuzu, I think she’ll be a great partner
Even if Tsukiko returns to Kyoto, she can hear about Misuzu’s situation from her sisters.
Indeed, Tsukiko-san would be the hardest to converse for me
Misuzu admits.
But, that’s right. I think that having Tsukiko-san monitor me can polish me to become better
Misuzu will take over the Kouzuki house.
Jii-chan has the assets, authority, and the power of Kouzuki SS.
Ruriko or Yoshiko-san has no interest in inheriting that power.
If that’s the case, nobody can go against Misuzu.
Misuzu needs a barrier to make sure that she doesn’t act wildly.
I understand. I’ll get along with Tsukiko-san. I’ll discuss my ideas with her
Yeah, do that. I’ll tell Tsukiko about it too
Although, I know that Tsukiko can read my mind anyway.
She’ll just read it before I could say it.
Yo-chan, what about me?
Nei asks.
Oh dear. Nei forgot about me
Margo-san laughs.
Is that okay, Yoshinobu-kun?
I.
Yeah. Margo-san knows Ya-chan the best
And Nei’s the one who understands me best
Margo-oneechan
Nei’s eyes become teary.
Recently, I no longer rampage from being unable to hold my emotions back
Margo-san’s weakness was like that.
Her destructive impulse has stopped.
I think this is all thanks to the family who lives a happy life every day. The family’s precious to me too. Thus, it heals my heart quite a lot
MArgo-san
If I have this much lovable family with me, then I won’t be rampaging without thought. The elder group has no time to trouble the family, as they’re the one who worries. Oh, Katsuko-san, Nagisa-san, and I worry about Minaho as well It’s the thought of people.
Worrying about someone lets you become stiff and slack-less. Having a family is wonderful
Then, she looked at Nei again.
Even so, Nei. You’re the one I worry the most
She smiled at Nei.
After all, you’re my first little sister
Margo-oneechan!
Nei jumps to Margo-san.
Margo-san hugs Nei tightly.
Really, you always make me worry, Nei!
In the end, I think that the past four months has been the first trial for our family.
It’s to see what are the changes when the family start living together.
Looking back at the past, and reexamining the present.
And we have to fix what needs fixing now.
And we can leave everything that we think is okay.
We’re people, and so there’s always someone who we don’t agree with.
But, that doesn’t mean that we have to coerce or expel them.
Look at the other party, and accept them.
Naturally, if it’s not okay, then we’ll scold them.
But if that’s the individuality of the person, we’ll put up with it.
We’re living together.
We all want to live together.
We’re a family, after all.
Wow!
What’s up?
Returning back to the dining room.
Everyone’s surprised.
There’s a huge sign on Misuzu’s chest saying, I won’t make schemes anymore.
And Nei has I’ll consult people next time.
Uhm, I won’t conspire anymore
Err, I’ll consult stuff with everyone next time
The two said and bowed their heads.
That’s good enough.
There’s no need to talk about anything unnecessary.
They don’t have to apologize either.
What’s left is for them to show it in their actions.
Kukuku, what’s that? LOL
Yukino’s laughing loudly.
Megu looks away.
Okay, let’s continue eating
Nagisa lets the two sit down.
I return to my seat as well.
Hey, there’s still some hot pot left, eat a lot
Okay
Thanks, Nagisa-san
Okay, the two started eating now.
Master, welcome back
Michi snuggles up to me again, wanting to be spoiled.
I guess her counter partner, is,
It’s Edie?
Hmm. I can’t think of it.
I think she’s being spoiled a lot recently.
Now then, I’ll start eating as well
Margo-san goes to the edge of the table and sits next to Rei-chan.
Ah, sorry, this pot is almost empty now
Huh?
Wasn’t that pot the one we left for the late people?
Furthermore, there are fewer people assigned to that one.
Haruka-san and I started eating.
i won’t lose! Ugh!
Kudou Haruka wearing her judo uniform, holds her stomach, looks like she’s sick.
Do you have a death wish? Trying to challenge me in eating
Rei-chan’s a glutton, she’s mold-breaking.
However, she eats elegantly.
I mean, I thought that I could win at least in food!
Haruka hates to lose, after all.
Though she always loses.
Margo, there’s still some remaining in this pot
Minaho-neesan calls Margo-san.
Oh, then I’ll take up on that offer
Margo-san leaves her seat.
Hey, Dear
Katsuko-nee comes close to me.
What’s up?
As for the pastry tomorrow
Oh.
Tomorrow’s Monday already.
I need to stock up again.
Didn’t we talk about selling bread with a 50-yen cheaper recipe?
I see I’ve got to stock up on that too.
Okay. Once we’re done eating. Oh wait, I’ve got my promise with Edie, so after that
I promised to give Edie an hour.
After that, Edie will go with Misuzu and the girls to Kouzuki house.
Michi’s still in this state, so I think that Edie has to go.
Anyway, teach me how to do it, I’ll do them all
It’s been hard today.
No, I’m done stocking up already
Katsuko-nee?
You know, the home-sitting team had a lot of free time while you’re away
eeh?
Everyone talked about testing it out. But, Ruriko-chan and Mana-chan have experience in it, Yoshiko-san’s hand is quite skilled as well. Misuzu-chan also helped out
Agnes also helped out!
Mao too!
Me too, although I can’t get it right
Even Yukino?
Then, Ruriko-chan looked after the firstimers, and so I had the time to make them. Therefore, we already have tomorrow’s share prepared
Katsuko-nee said and smiled.
And so, you can take it easy through the night. Everything’s done already
You mean?
Everyone thought that I’m tired.
And so they took over my job.
I mean, it’s going good. The 50-yen cheaper bread I mean. Compared to when you and I do it, Agnes and Yukino-san make it rough, slightly torn, and it has an overall round taste, Well, I’m still making the dough, and so the taste doesn’t change. But the appearance is the problem Katsuko-nee said.
We’ll help out Papa from now on!
Me too! Onii-chan!
Me too, Onii-sama
Kishishi, making bread is fun!
