My daily life with the Shiina sisters

Chapter 7 It’s all a plan

Upon hearing this, Imagawa Kaede obediently went to make a pot of black tea. By the time he brought the tray and the old man uncomplainingly brought the tea set over, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had already started chatting and laughing.

After Imagawa Kaede poured tea for the two of them, Imagawa Mikiko said:

"Why are you still standing here? I'm annoyed by the sight of you. Get out of here right now."

After hearing this, Imagawa Kaede finally understood what his mother meant. (Don't get in the way and delay my performance.)

Imagawa Kaede was also feeling quite tired at the moment. He didn't sleep well last night and got up very early this morning. In addition, he learned all kinds of basic common sense about this world, accepted the memories of the original owner, and had to do various housework.

If he hadn't been worried about Shiina Mahiru's condition, he would have fallen asleep long ago. After all, young people are in good health, so it is very normal for them to sleep more.

Imagawa Kaede went to see Zhou Gong, and Imagawa Mikiko in the room finally turned the topic to what happened between the couple last night.

"Mahiru, his father and I already know what the kid did last night... Well, it's our fault in the end. We shouldn't have brought you into this hell."

"Kasan... This is not your fault, I..." Shiina Mahiru felt complicated when she saw her taking the blame of Imagawa Kaede's mistakes. She didn't know how to answer.

Seeing that her expression was a little hesitant, Imagawa Mikiko decided to retreat in order to advance.

"Mahiru, why don't I let him move back in a few days? I think you must have some resentment towards him in your heart. You are a good girl. Now as long as you make a request, even if it means canceling the engagement, it is okay. Don't worry, I will make the decision for you."

This is of course just polite talk. Even if the Imagawa family is willing, the Shiina family will never agree.

Shiina Mahiru didn't know what to say when she heard that. Suddenly, she seemed to think of something and took out the paper from under the pillow and handed it to Imagawa Mikiko.

Mrs. Imagawa was a little surprised, but she still took the paper and read it. She originally thought that Shiina Mahiru had something to say that was difficult to say and had specially prepared it, but she didn't expect that it was written by her own son.

After reading what Imagawa Kaede wrote, she felt that this was all planned by Imagawa Kaede. The words about being afraid that she would leave were only meant to deceive children. Although her son had a bad personality, he had received the best education after all. It would be strange if he couldn't understand this.

But of course she wouldn't say it out loud. Although Imagawa Kaede's tricks seemed a bit clumsy in front of her, in the eyes of outsiders, combined with what he did on a daily basis, it seemed somewhat reasonable.

Although she sympathized with Mahiru's experience, she was obviously more on the side of her own son, otherwise she would not have let Imagawa Kaede kneel for only a short while. If he really wanted to express his apology, wouldn't Dogeza be a better solution?

But she couldn't do that, and the reason was very simple. Shiina Mahiru's family background was basically nothing, and it was really unworthy for Imagawa Kaede to do that. If it was Shiina Mahiru's cousin, Shiina Mashiro, there was still some possibility, after all, she was a world-class genius painter.

"Alas, Xiao Feng, once he falls in love with someone, he tends to go too far and often goes to extremes. But I still want to thank you for taking care of him."

"No... I just did something insignificant."

Mikiko Imagawa felt that there was a great chance that the problem could be solved today. In the past, her son was basically a bad teammate, so there was no way he could provide assists like today. She was never afraid of Imagawa Kaede causing trouble, and as long as they didn't do anything particularly outrageous, they could handle the rest.

In the final analysis, causing trouble and solving the problems you have caused are both a form of exercise, and in the final analysis, they are both ways of dealing with problems.

It's like if you hit someone, you always have to try to get forgiveness from the person and his family. This involves how to communicate, how to give gifts, how to use the situation to put pressure on others, and so on.

But the difference is that in the past, it was his assistant Asai who took him there. She didn't have the time to care about trivial matters such as student fights. On the contrary, she just wanted her son not to suffer any harm.

At that time, Imagawa Kaede sometimes didn't even want to come to the door, and he would even apologize today and call the person again the next day. This is just what I asked myself. I don't know how much Asai didn't tell me, and it would never be like today.

"In fact, both father and son are the kind of people who show off their power outside but are as timid as mice at home." Imagawa Mikiko said with a smile.

Shiina Mahiru was a little surprised when she heard that, and her beautiful eyes stared blankly at her "Kasan". She didn't expect that Imagawa Yoshiki, who looked so majestic and old-fashioned, would actually be henpecked.

Mrs. Imagawa naturally saw what she meant. "Why, you don't believe it? But this is indeed a little surprising. Do you know Xiao Feng's grandmother? I'll take you to meet her next time. She will definitely like you."

Shiina Mahiru didn't know how to answer and could only smile and nodded.

"Back then, her grandmother held my hand and said, 'Ah Qing has never done anything useful except making me angry and causing trouble every day. But I will entrust this child to you from now on.' Oh, now thinking about the smile on her face, I feel so annoyed. I was too young back then."

Imagawa Mikiko started to set a trap. Now she was holding Shiina Mahiru's hand and saying this.

Shiina Mahiru obviously didn't notice the intrigues of the adults. Instead, she looked at the smiling "Kasan" and thought seriously about what she had just said.

"But Kasan, you probably don't regret agreeing to your grandma, because I can feel that Kasan is very happy now."

Imagawa Mikiko nodded and smiled without saying anything, but she pretended to be hesitant to say something.

"Um, Mahiru..."

Upon hearing this, Shiina Mahiru also looked over with some confusion.

"Does Kasan have anything to say?"

"Well, Mahiru, I wonder if I can entrust Xiao Feng to you like Xiao Feng's grandmother did? In fact, in my heart, I have always felt that you are much better than the daughter of the Shinomiya family. In my heart, you are the most suitable one."

"It's not good to say this now, but this may be my selfish desire as a mother. I was originally planning to save these words for when you and Xiaofeng get married, but after seeing what Xiaofeng wrote today, I am more convinced of this idea in my heart."

Imagawa Mikiko was a little worried that Shiina Mahiru would reject her outright when she said this. She didn't quite understand how much of an impact Imagawa Kaede's actions last night had on Mahiru, so to be safe she said:

"You don't have to tell me the answer now. Just assume that I accidentally said the wrong thing today."
