That’s a lot of trouble.
IN truth, Grandfather always shows an angry look whenever outside
Misuzu said.
Yet, you’re having fun when with Agnes or me. Well, there’s no need for acting when with family
Jii-chan said.
Later, I still need to show a sour face to the lovely ladies from Misuzu’s school.
Oh, he still needs to do it even with the girls.
I need to be more careful with women than men. If I were seen to show a smile to any young lady, then. The family would offer their daughter as Grandfather’s mistress
Huh?
And when that happens, it would be rude to refuse the daughter, and so it becomes troublesome Therefore, Grandfather visits Kuromori’s brothel frequently? Indeed. There are no future troubles with the women in the high-class brothel
i see.
Anyway, I must continue the displeased look to not cause any odd ideas. I couldn’t show any interest to a cute girl. That is crucial
Hmm. Being the head of a family is hard.
Do you understand, Yoshinobu?
Huh?
what?
Danna-sama, you’re attending the party as Kuromori Kou, my partner
Ah, wait. Me too?
You must show a self-important, arrogant, and egoistic attitude too
Jii-chan instructed me.
1. これからも.どうしても話したくないことは構わないが、できる限り私に話してくれ
Chapter 841. High Life Professed Job
Even if you tell me that.
Like, taking a self-important attitude.
I mean, I’m facing some high-class ladies.
I feel like I’m rude if I take some self-important attitude.
For now, please put this on, Danna-sama
Misuzu hands me sunglasses.
We’re making it so that Kuromori Kou goes to formal places wearing glasses
Oh, if I put on sunglasses, I can keep off the dumb face I make.
Wearing dark sunglasses makes the other party not know where you’re looking
Jii-chan said.
However, you can only do that with people lower than you. Don’t wear sunglasses when facing people in equal status Why? Wearing sunglasses means you’re concealing your thoughts. Trying to hide your thoughts in a battle of wits implies that you don’t have enough composure, and they’ll look down on you I see But it matters not, for now, the ladies have little to no interest with you. They’re bent on ignoring you. O-Okay
I put on the sunglasses Misuzu gave me.
Is this one of your preferences? No, it’s Shou-oneesama.
Misuzu replied.
The one I chose got rejected by everyone
As usual, Misuzu’s got some strange tastes when it comes to what I wear.
I thought of asking you to put on some wilder sunglasses, but everyone said that the elegant looking one is better Hmm, I think this is good
Jii-chan said that. Please stop with the wild ideas, for now, Misuzu.
The suit looks good with you. Is that from the usual? Yeah got this from the shop you told me
Jii-chan told me to get some customade suits when going to events related to Kouzuki house.
He told me where to go, and get measurements on my whole body, and check on the temporary sewing.
I like the suits Katsuko-nee mends for me, but those were suits of Minaho-neesan’s Grandfather.
I feel sorry for putting on some memento suits, and so I accepted it and asked for brand new.
What do you think? Having suits that fit your figure feels great, doesn’t it? Yeah. Somehow, it’s light and easy to move. This suit doesn’t get me tired
For real, this is what someone can expect from professionals.
Ruriko, Katsuko-oneesama, and I chose the material for the cloth
I don’t know much about the materials, color, and design, and so.
And so, I brought them to the store.
Michi was there, but she didn’t say a thing.
Well, Michi’s wearing nothing but her uniform all the time.
She probably doesn’t know much about fashion.
They listened to my opinion on this one
Misuzu said.
Hmm, the cloth is slightly gaudy and coquettish, but, Yoshinobu’s still young, and he’s not using it for business. I guess this will do We also asked to make one for calm gatherings. That one didn’t use my opinions
Misuzu said regretfully.
There shouldn’t be any problems if you had Katsuko-kun look at it. Her guests were mostly dandy from the start. She’s seen good material and excellent tailoring. She’s much more refined than Ruriko or you Jii-chan said and laughed. Now then, shall we meet the ladies in the courtyard?
Jii-chan stands up.
Oh right, Yoshinobu. I will be calling you Kuromori-kun from now on
He said and smiled.
As I said earlier, I must show that I am someone with authority in public. Therefore, sorry, but we’ll be fussing with that I know that
I’m not that stupid.
I won’t call you Jii-chan, but Kakka, right? No, call me Grandfather
Jii-chan said.
People know that I gave permission to your relationship with Misuzu, and so they’ll start doubting my character if someone from family calls me Kakka Then, I’ll go with Grandfather Indeed
Jii-chan said while smiling.
That way of calling is okay, but use it respectfully. I still am the head of Kouzuki house, an influential man Ah, yeah Misuzu and Ruriko’s friends will come to greet us, but don’t do anything until I greet them back. It will break my honor Oh, the order of big-wigs, that it? Naturally. Don’t look at the faces of the girls that come close, if you meet their eyes, you’ll need to greet them back, won’t you? Oh, I see If you’re away from me, then you can gaze at the women, however, don’t stare too much, and don’t look at them where you have to give greetings. It’s a must
That’s hard.
But it can’t be helped. I can’t embarrass Jii-chan.
When I’m talking, look at my face. Don’t look away. Be sure to listen earnestly Okay Then, let’s go
Ootoku-san and Choumoto-san are waiting in the corridor.
The two are full-time bodyguards. Anyway, they’re huge. You can tell that they’re strong from a glance.
The two follow right away, even without Jii-chan telling them anything.
Oh right, you’re free to talk to me whenever you want. It would be an annoyance if the girls think that you’re too nervous that you can’t say anything, don’t you think?
Jii-chan said.
That, or maybe I’m standing next to Jii-chan, so I only answer when I’m asked? You’re still a relative, you know? Is there a family that is too tense like that? You can go with normal for that one. However, don’t let them think you’re stupid in the conversation Well, I’ll do my best
I mean, I’m an idiot. So I think I’m going to say something stupid.
Therefore, I prefer to stay silent all the time, but.
Jii-chan told me to join conversations like normal.
I think that everyone in the courtyard would be listening to the conversation Grandfather and Danna-sama will have
Misuzu said.
Women loves to prick up their ears and listen
I guess that’s what’s similar between the high-class ladies and my classmates.
Danna-sama, this way
We head to the terrace on the second floor, looking out the courtyard.
However, this mansion is so vast and anciently.
However, this building is the third oldest among the buildings in the Kouzuki clan plot. If I recall correctly, it’s built around the middle of the Showa era.
The other one is a western house built during the Meiji era.
