My daily life with the Shiina sisters

Although high-end apartments and luxury hotels that are mainly constructed with reinforced concrete are limited by the number of floors and the need to ensure the service life of this type of building, a longer construction period is required.

But for some ordinary single-family houses and some villas, it is quite convenient to build.

A typical single-family house in an island country can be completed by just a few workers in a little over a month.

The construction period for some corresponding special villas is not much different. The only difference is that they are larger in area, use more stones, and have more refined wood and interior decoration.

Ultimately it's the same logic as building blocks, except that compared to reinforced concrete, daily maintenance is more necessary. For example, an ordinary single-family house usually costs several million yen to maintain every 10 years or so.

Since the Imagawa family had acquired so much land in the Niseko area, it was natural for them to use some of the traditional skills of the wealthy to enclose a piece of land and build a villa or a house.

Anyway, it can be registered as a property of a real estate company at that time. It is similar to the way some people buy cars with the company’s account.

This is also why some bosses are left with nothing after their company goes bankrupt. The reason is that, in fact, their own houses, cars, antique collections, etc. are all charged to the company's accounts. After the company goes bankrupt, these things will naturally be sent to auction and so on.

Anyway, it’s quite troublesome to explain, but to put it simply, it’s for the purpose of saving money.

On the first day after arriving, due to snow, several people had to stay in the villa.

In response, Imagawa Kaede asked someone to send an electric oven, and then brought oranges, chestnuts, longans and other food to be eaten.

"Are we going to have barbecue?" After watching Imagawa Kaede put the grill on the electric grill, Shiina Mahiru asked with some confusion.

"This is for drinking tea." Imagawa Kaede said.

"Drink tea?" Long Zhutao was a little confused. In her impression, making tea was something that was usually only available in old Japanese houses.

Usually, there is an open space in the room for a fire, and pots, kettles and other things are heated on the fire.

But Imagawa Kaede is obviously holding a barbecue grill...

But she didn't need to continue to wonder, as Imagawa Kaede immediately put black tea and milk into the teapot, and then put the chestnuts on top.

However, Imagawa Kaede would still feel a little strange if it was cooked on the table in the restaurant. After thinking about it, Imagawa Kaede moved it in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.

The atmosphere was there, but Imagawa Kaede felt that it lacked a bit of class.

After thinking about it, he went to the bookshelf in the corner of the living room and picked up a book for decoration. The book was quite new. It should be that the person who decorated it before bought it and took it apart and put it here in order to maintain the style.

Then he sat on the small chair, turned on the electric oven, and waited for these things to be heated.

"Do you want to join us?" Imagawa Kaede smiled at the two of them.

Maybe it was the atmosphere or the sense of ritual or something, but Shiina Mahiru and Ryugumo Momo found it quite interesting.

After the two of them brought small chairs and sat down, Imagawa Kaede went to get some peanuts and corn, and after thinking for a while, he went to get some sweet potatoes.

Imagawa heard that the sweet potatoes in his hand seemed to be not cheap, about a hundred yuan per pound on average. He didn't know whether they could be compared with the sweet potatoes that Imagawa Kaede often ate at that time, which cost a few yuan per pound and would ooze out sugar water when roasted.

"Do you want to eat it?" Imagawa Kaede asked the two people, shaking the sweet potato in his hand.

Just when Imagawa thought that the two would agree, Shiina Mahiru and Ryujumo both showed an expression that Imagawa couldn't describe. They were probably communicating with each other and asking for each other's opinions or something.

"No, let's forget it..." Shiina Mahiru waved her hand.

"Well, you should eat it yourself." Longzhu Tao also agreed.

In this regard, Imagawa Kaede also remembered something.

But he still pretended not to understand and put the rest of the things on it.

"Do we have to grill the oranges too?" asked Shiina Mahiru.

"You can try it later. It tastes pretty good." Imagawa Kaede said with a smile.

"This feeling is pretty good, right?" Imagawa Kaede asked with a smile.

Perhaps because she was sitting next to the stove, Shiina Mahiru felt her body was somewhat warm:

"Yeah, it feels like the kotatsu you mentioned earlier."

"It's pretty good," Long Zhutao said, and she put her hand on the stove, feeling the warmth coming from it. She smiled and said, "Especially when looking at the snow falling outside, it feels warmer than usual... warmer."

Soon, the tea was ready, and Imagawa Kaede poured a cup for the two of them and added some freshly roasted red dates into it.

"Try it. Although I don't quite understand the specific ratio to make it taste good, it shouldn't be bad." Imagawa Kaede said as he poured himself a glass.

At the same time, he used a clamp to take down the oranges that had been placed on top.

After drinking it, Shiina Mahiru and Ryugumo Momo felt it was quite good. Although Imagawa Kaede didn't know much about making tea, it still felt quite good in this atmosphere.

Looking at the raging snow and wind outside the window, the two of them felt exceptionally calm.

In fact, the fact that Long Zhutao was willing to come here this time was a test in itself for her.

After what happened before, the two of them gradually moved towards reconciliation.

But it is still difficult to restore the previously broken relationship.

And she came here this time with the intention of repairing her relationship with Shiina Mahiru.

As for Imagawa Kaede, he came here mainly because of matters related to Niseko, and he didn't have much time to accompany Shiina Mahiru all the time, while Shiina Mashiro returned to England.

At the same time, he thought that when he asked Longzhu Tao to come together, he also wanted to improve the relationship between the two. By the way, it can also be regarded as someone to accompany Shiina Mahiru to play.

Furthermore, Imagawa Kaede also wanted to try the 1v2 suicidal scene.

Of course, it’s not about the things in bed, but so that you don’t have to worry too much or favor one person in your daily life.

As for Mahiru's thoughts...

There has to be some tug of war after all, and it is an opportunity for both of them.

If Shiina Mahiru's methods were clever enough, she could use the Dragon Ball Peach to counter Imagawa Kaede's strategy.
