Tokyo life starting with painting

Sitting in the business car, Higashinoji knew what the main industries of the Konoe family were.

Konoe Ryoka's family was originally mainly engaged in the Japanese kimono industry.

And it is considered to be well-known far and wide. After careful inquiry, Higashinoji found out that the entire Aomori Prefecture had actually heard of the Konoe family kimono.

The reason why Konoe Ryoka wanted to learn painting was because she wanted to design something new for her own kimono - the so-called clothing design type.

It’s no wonder that Konoe Ryoka had average talent and level at the time but was still committed to the Art Department of Hokuei Junior High School.

It seems that the Konoe Ryoka family was still a noble family in the Edo period, but it was later transferred to Aomori Prefecture after the family fell into decline. This was something Higashinoji didn't expect.

However, it is no longer popular to be aristocratic or not, so the Konoe family relied on the capital left by their ancestors to start a kimono weaving industry. There are some ancient production techniques, and the Konoe family's business It’s getting bigger and bigger.

"Ryuka, it turns out you are still a noble." Higashinoji teased Konoe Ryoka, which made Konoe Ryoka blush. She could only open her mouth and cough twice, feeling a little speechless. .

"Isn't it a bit inappropriate for me to just come to the door with empty hands?" Higashino asked again.

I came out in a hurry. No, no, it wasn't that I came out in a hurry, but the special car that took Konoe Tsushima to pick me up arrived too quickly. It was almost as if it was transferred from the nearest place after making a phone call. Higashinoji hadn't even walked two steps. I went to buy some souvenirs and then turned back.

This actually made Higashino feel a little weird.

Could it be that my father-in-law is actually a daughter-in-law?

Otherwise, all these performances would be somewhat unreasonable.

"It's okay if you don't bring anything with you. Aomori Prefecture is such a big place. In fact, my father can tell at a glance whether you are a local specialty, Aji."

Konoe Ryoka seemed very unconcerned and continued: "It would be better to say that if you don't buy it in advance but use local materials, your father will notice it at a glance. That would be rude."

"That's it." Higashino nodded.

Since that's the case, then don't bring any souvenirs. Anyway, according to Konoe Ryoka, my father-in-law probably won't care about this thing, and it might even be rude, which would be a bit more than worth the gain.

"Compared to that, it's almost time, A-Asi. Are you ready?"

Konoe Ryoka asked stammeringly from the side.

"What are you preparing for?" Touyesi was a little surprised.

I don’t even bring any souvenirs, what else should I prepare besides this?

"That's right, Aji, don't be too nervous. When the time comes, you won't be able to speak clearly. Ugh." Konoe Ryoka covered her mouth, tears glistening.

She was so nervous that she accidentally bit her tongue and couldn't speak clearly.

Touyesi actually enjoyed watching this and couldn't help but laugh twice.

"You, you're still laughing!" Konoe Ryoka covered her mouth and glared at Higashinoji angrily: "I'm serious, Aji will be so nervous when he sees my father that he can't speak. Then he will be so nervous that he can't speak. Don’t blame me for not reminding you.”

After she said this she sat there sulking.

This is also one of her advantages. If she is angry, she will just sit and lie down and sulk, and she will never bring her emotions to others.

——But she really means it this time!

You must know that this is the first time Higashino meets his parents.

If you really don't take it seriously, you won't be able to say a word in front of your father.

Then I will ignore Asi for three days!

Konoe Ryoka made up her mind in her heart, and planned to never change her decision no matter what she encountered.

But after thinking about it, Konoe Ryoka felt that three days was too long, and her heart felt a little soft, so she decided to change three days to one day. Then she felt that it had become one day anyway, so she might as well do it again. Give me a discount for half a day.

Um.

Decided.

He just ignored Asi for a long time.

Konoe Ryoka confirmed her thoughts and emphasized them repeatedly in her mind.

Just as she was emphasizing repeatedly as if hypnotized, Higashinoji's voice came to her ears again: "Speaking of which, how far is it from your home? Lianghua?"

"Ah, well, I think it's about ten minutes away. Uh." Konoe Ryoka subconsciously answered Higashinoji's question in a thin and soft voice.

But she soon realized that there was something wrong with this attitude, so she turned her head angrily and whispered softly: "I, I won't tell Asi!"

Maybe she wanted to express her tough side, but her voice sounded thin and soft. Not only did she not sound tough, but she sounded like a coquettish little cat.

Konoe Ryoka obviously noticed this as well. She hurriedly covered her mouth and looked at Higashinoji with her big eyes, feeling very helpless.

I don’t know what’s going on. He said he would ignore Higashinoji just a second ago, but after hearing his voice, he always slows down his tone.

There is really no other way.

Konoe Ryoka, who realized that being angry was of no use, turned around and once again carefully stretched out her little hand to grab Higashinoji's palm, looking at Higashinoji with big eyes: "Aji, don't be nervous later. If we have a good talk, there will definitely be no problem."

"okay."

Konoe Ryoka showed weakness like this, Higashinoji couldn't continue teasing her, so he smiled and sat upright, straightening his back, waiting to meet his future father-in-law.

Seeing that Higashinoji became serious, Konoe Ryoka was slightly relieved. After holding Higashinoji's hand with a red face, she also waited for the moment to return to her home.

These ten minutes were probably the most difficult ten minutes in Konoe Ryoka's short seventeen-year-old life. Higashinoji next to her could not see any trace of nervousness. On the contrary, she was so nervous that her breathing became rapid. Quite a few.

Fortunately, the car arrived at its destination soon. Higashinoji followed Konoe Ryoka out of the car and looked up at the building in front of him.

Perhaps because their ancestors were nobles, Konoe's family also had a standard Japanese-style building.

This covers a large area.

After listening to Konoe Ryoka's explanation on the road, Higashinoji also knew that this area of ​​​​the house is divided into a front yard, a backyard, and a side yard. A pond was specially opened in it with a stone bridge, and Konoe Tsushima raised carp in it.

It has to be said that the Konoe family is indeed rich and has a strong foundation.

But, to be honest, Higashinoji doesn't actually care about whether Konoe's family has money. Anyway, he is not short of money. Higashinoji's main purpose of coming here this time is to kidnap Konoe Ryoka. Apart from that, there is no Other ideas.

Higashino took a step forward subconsciously, and then heard a voice saying hello:

"Brother Si? And Sister Lianghua?"

Konoe Rinka obviously didn't expect to meet Konoe Ryoka and Higashinoji again so soon.

Although she had talked with Konoe Ryoka before, she knew that Higashinoji would come to meet Konoe Tsushima soon, but who thought it would be so soon?

Didn't they just find a hotel in Aomori Prefecture yesterday? Why are you so anxious?

Konoe Rinka had many thoughts running through her mind, but she still took the initiative to come over and say hello.

"Rinka. Why are you here?" Konoe Ryoka didn't expect to meet her cousin so soon, so she couldn't help but ask.

"I came here with my father. I think I wanted to discuss some business. But I don't know what happened just now, and suddenly nothing happened, so my father sent me to wait here. I didn't expect to meet Sister Lianghua."

Konoe Rinka answered with a smile.

Her words did not attract Konoe Ryoka's attention, but Higashinoji was vaguely interested.

Have business to discuss? And then suddenly nothing happened again?

Isn't this just Konoe Tsushima making way for his daughter Konoe Ryoka?

The previous premonition seemed to come true.

Konoe Tsushima seems to be a real daughter-in-law.

Higashinoji couldn't help but raise his eyebrows just listening to it, feeling something was not good in his heart.

This kind of girl control is basically the most difficult to deal with. It is too difficult to take away his beloved little cotton-padded jacket from the opponent's hands.

But this is just a little analysis and thinking. Higashinoji shook his head, he hasn't met yet. Konoe Tsushima may not be controlled by his daughter.

"Brother Si, are you going to meet Uncle Tsushima next?" Konoe Rinka stood nearby and asked curiously.

"Well, this is the purpose of our coming here. Just in time, Rinka, are you free? Can you accompany your sister?" Konoe Ryoka asked.

With the familiar Rinka Konoe accompanying her, she would feel much less pressure and tension in her heart.

"Hey? Is this appropriate? Sister Lianghua, aren't you?"

"It's appropriate. Listen to me, Rinka. I can tell my father myself, so don't worry." Konoe Ryoka couldn't help but take Konoe Rinka's hand.

Konoe Rinka was a little surprised by her cousin's initiative. Sister Lianghua had really changed a lot. In the past, her personality was soft and soft, and it was basically impossible for her to demand others so forcefully.

"I understand, Sister Lianghua."

Konoe Rinka did not refuse, and nodded and agreed to accompany Konoe Ryoka in.

The three of them formed a company and walked towards Konoe's home.

Following the guidance of Konoe Ryoka and Konoe Rinka, Higashinoji finally saw the person he was looking for this time - Konoe Tsushima in the table tennis room mentioned by Konoe Ryoka.

Konoe Tsushima is a middle-aged man with a thin face and short black hair that has not been dyed. His eyes are bright and his back is straight. He looks very energetic.

Judging from the facial features, Konoe Ryoka is about one or two points similar to her. It seems that her girlfriend did not inherit much of her father-in-law's genes.

Higashino thought secretly in his heart, and at the same time glanced at the ball room.

At this time, Tsushima Konoe was playing table tennis with another middle-aged man who looked similar. There was a lot of fun between offense and defense. Most young people would feel like they would end up having their heads shaved if they couldn't catch a few balls.

"The person who is playing ball with my father is Rinka's father, Konoe Mado." Konoe Ryoka explained to Higashinoji.

Next to him, Konoe Rinka also reminded Higashinoji in a friendly way: "Sige, maybe you don't know, but Lianghua's father likes to play table tennis with my father very much. He is very skilled. If Sige can play table tennis." Maybe we can strike up a conversation or two. I don’t need to win, just know a little bit.”

Higashinoji heard this from Konoe Ryoka on the way. He smiled and nodded, and was about to speak, but then he didn't answer as if he had discovered something.

This sudden change in expression caught Konoe Rinka a little unexpectedly. Before she could ask anything, she heard a voice in her ear.

"Can you fight?"

Why?

Konoe Rinka looked in shock at Konoe Tsushima who had walked up to Higashinoji with a racket at some point, and froze on the spot.

She had no idea that while she was still whispering to Higashinoji, Konoe Tsushima over there had already taken the initiative and caught him off guard.

How would Higashinoji respond at this time? You're not so nervous that you can't even speak, are you?

Konoe Rinka turned to look at Higashinoji.

"I know a little bit."

Higashinoji's attitude was very calm and he just answered with a smile.

"Okay, then it's your turn. Ma Dou, I'll fight this guy for a few shots, you wait a moment."

Konoe Tsushima turned to Konoe Mado, who was wiping his sweat with a towel and shouted.

Konoe Madou was a little surprised when he heard this. Then he saw Konoe Ryoka with a nervous face on the other side. He probably understood what was going on and nodded.

He took the initiative to replace him from the court, handed the table tennis racket to Higashinoji, and encouraged him with a smile.

"How do you feel? Dad?" Konoe Rinka took the initiative to take the towel from her father's hand and asked.

"Feeling...? Oh, I feel like your playing style towards Uncle Ma today was so fierce that I couldn't handle it at all."

Konoe Madou said this, and looked at Konoe Ryoka happily: "Ryuka, I guess it's the boy you brought here that caused the problem, right? I was really beaten badly by your father today."

As soon as Konoe Madou said these words, Konoe Ryoka next to her suddenly became very nervous. She bowed deeply to Konoe Madou in greeting, and then looked at the table tennis table - for fear of playing by then. It wasn't table tennis, but Higashinoji and Konoe Tsushima were fighting each other.

Sensing the worry in Konoe Ryoka's eyes, Konoe Mado, who was replaced, smiled and shook his head:

"Actually, Lianghua, you don't have to worry so much. Your father doesn't really like to make things difficult for others. What makes me curious now is how many balls your boyfriend can withstand. Don't be beaten at 11:0 by then. At least you have to Just stick to a few balls."

After hearing what Konoe Mato said, Lianghua and Rinka didn't know how to answer, and they both turned to look at the ping pong table.

Among them, Konoe Rinka was the most worried. She had never seen Higashinoji's table tennis level, and subconsciously felt that the opponent would not be Konoe's opponent.

No. Considering that Higashinoji is a genius, he might also have some accomplishments in table tennis.

As for her father, Konoe Mado, he was completely out of shape. He was drinking water and looking at the situation in front of him happily, looking very happy.

Today, Konoe's Taima was so fierce that he was in a panic. He originally thought he was going to be ravaged again, but he was suddenly replaced by Higashinoji, which made him extremely happy.

What could be better than sitting back and watching someone else get fucked?
