Tokyo life starting with painting.

Chapter 280 The Invisible Guardian (4000 words)
Konoe Tsushima would rather let Higashinoji pick up a piece of property by himself than let Konoe Ryoto inherit the core industry of the Konoe family. The reason for this is probably not that simple.

And the request Dong Yesi could think of was probably getting married.

But this is obviously unlikely.

After all, Higashinoji is also a celebrity of a moderate size nowadays, and there is no shortage of the profits of their Konoe family. I want him to change his surname to Konoe. To be honest, with these things alone, it is impossible to impress Higashinoji to marry him.

And as long as he is a man with a little ambition and ability, he will probably sneer at the matter of getting married and stepping in the door.

Higashino Tsukasa was thinking so, Konoe Tsushima on the other side seemed to have sensed his thoughts, and took the initiative to speak: "Please don't worry, Si Jun, I don't want you to join Konoe's family."

"Really?" Higashino looked sideways at Konoe Tsushima, somewhat confused.

Since the idea is not aimed at oneself, then it is.
"I hope that after you marry your little girl, the first child born can change his surname to Jinwei so that he can inherit the core business of the Jinwei family."

Konoe offered his thoughts to Ma.

It was so-

Dong Yesi suddenly realized.

Konoe Tsushima turned out to be thinking about his son or daughter.

He obviously knew that he couldn't impress Higashinoji, so he set his mind on Higashinoji and Konoe Lianghua's child who hadn't written a word yet.

This made Higashinoji both funny and speechless, Konoe Tsushima really worried too much for this Konoe family.

but
"Sorry, father-in-law, I can't just agree to your request."

Higashino Division hardly thought about it, so he shook his head.

Although it is his child, he does not have the right to decide the fate of the other party in advance. The son or daughter of himself and Lianghua should decide by themselves.

But
"So I have an idea here." Higashinosi did not repeatedly disrespect his father-in-law, but put forward his own idea: "What do you think about letting them decide whether to change their surname to Konoe? Father-in-law grown ups."

"Let them decide for themselves...?" Konoe Tsushima, who was still a little disappointed just now, regained his spirit after saying this.

Because this solution is really good.

Let the child decide for himself. This is definitely not a loss for him.

After all, who can resist the temptation to inherit billions of dollars when they grow up?Not to mention people like Higashino, Konoe didn't think that his own property would not be able to attract Higashino's son or daughter.

He gained confidence, and after a little calculation, he felt that he could also use his identity as a grandfather to establish a good relationship with his granddaughter and grandson since he was a child—how many children can he coax well?
It is impossible to think!
By the way, it can also pave the way for inheriting the family business in the future. No matter from which point of view, this is a steady profit.

"It's really a good idea." Konoe Tsushima's tense face finally eased.

The reason for the relief is not only that he has found a successor for the Konoe family, but more importantly, Higashino has always maintained a very respectful attitude towards him, and there is no disrespect at all.

Conversation, behavior, upbringing. To be honest, if Higashinoji was his own child, the position of the first successor would basically not be lost.

Unfortunately not
Konoe could only express regret to the horse at this point, and then he said: "By the way, there are other reasons for not handing over the Konoe family property to Liangren, the most important of which is... I don't think Liangren can't Take up the estate of the Konoe family."

Blood relationship belongs to blood relationship, but the most important thing is that Konoe Ryoto is not this material at all!
He couldn't bear the banner of the Jinwei family at all!

That's the most important thing.

In ancient Japan, there were actually many cases of succession to the family governor through adoption, but that was also based on the premise of ability.

You don't even have the ability, so entrusting such a large family business to you, isn't it just a free gift?

"I feel the same way." Higashinosi nodded with a smile after hearing this.

If you can hurt Konoe Ryoto a bit, hurt Konoe Ryoto more, he won't really treat this guy leniently.

The next thing will be much easier to solve.

Higashinoji drank tea with Konoe Tsushima, and then chatted with him about Konoe Suzuka at school.
It can be seen that Konoe Tsushima is indeed a daughter-controller. He is very concerned about his daughter's situation in school. When he knew that Konoe Lianghua's academic performance was basically kept in the top [-] or even top [-] of the grade, he stopped. He couldn't help showing a smile.

Seeing this, Higashino secretly cursed in his heart.

I tried various ways of talking to make the old man happy, but the final result was to relax his tense face a little bit.

But when he talked about Konoe Lianghua, he couldn't stop laughing
Sure enough, this is the so-called differential treatment.

Naturally, Dong Yesi couldn't really have any opinions, at most it was a few words of slander.

In the back, Higashinoji understood why Konoe Tsushima was so interested in Konoe Lianghua.
He took out a photo, on which was the appearance of Konoe Lianghua's mother - at least [-]% similar to Konoe Lianghua!
This made Dong Yesi a little dumbfounded.

Perhaps looking at Konoe Liangka's appearance, it is easy to think of his dead wife, so Konoe Tsushima is not very close to her on the surface.

As for the rest of the inconsistency, perhaps it is the figure.

Mother-in-law is obviously not as big as Konoe Lianghua, on the contrary it is a bit flat.
After drinking tea, Higashinoji saw Konoe Suzuka and Konoe Rinka who were sitting in the living room looking a little anxious, and Konoe Mato who looked over strangely.

This made Higashinoji a little confused, because he inexplicably felt that Konoe Matou looked at him a little strangely.
"Asi, you're out." Seeing Higashino Si come back, Konoe Lianghua immediately went up to meet him.

She ignored Konoe Tsushima next to Higashinoji, and began to scan Higashinoji's whole body worriedly, as if worried that Konoe Tsushima was rough on him.

This look of checking up and down made the guard next to him feel a little sour at the horse - do you really think I will do something to this kid?

He was a little speechless.

Higashino Division was keenly aware of Konoe Tsushima's calm and resentful eyes, so he said with a smile: "Well, I'm back, and I talked to my father-in-law quite well."

"Really?" Konoe Lianghua noticed that Konoe Tsushima was right next to him. She glanced at Konoe Tsushima, and said worriedly, "Father didn't tell you anything strange, did he?"

These words deeply hurt Konoe Tsushima's slender and sensitive heart towards his daughter, he couldn't help frowning: "How could I do that?"

However, his helpless complaint obviously did not arouse Konoe Lianghua's belief. After Konoe Lianghua just glanced at him, he turned to Higashinoji.

This made Higashino suddenly feel that Konoe's resentful gaze towards Ma had turned into murderous intent, so he immediately helped to explain: "As my father-in-law said, it's nothing, I just chat with him about the family .”

"That's right." Although Konoe Lianghua couldn't accept it, she nodded obediently and blinked her beautiful big eyes to express her acceptance.

Jin Wei thought to Ma Xin that you didn't believe what he explained just now, why did you agree with your boyfriend as soon as he said it?
This is too discriminatory.

Thinking of this, Konoe's expression on the horse didn't change, but he still said in a sullen tone: "I still have things to deal with, so you can do whatever you want." He turned around and left.

Before leaving, he gave Konoe Mato a wink.

This made Konoe Matou, who was enjoying his daughter's head massage, come to his senses, and he happily walked to Higashino Si: "Hello, Si Jun, I am Lianghua's uncle, Konoe Matou."

"Hello, Uncle Ma Dou, I'm Higashinoji."

After the two introduced themselves to each other, Konoe Mato made a request to talk to Konoe Suzuka.

It was just a small request, of course Higashino didn't care, he walked outside the door, waited for about a minute or two, Konoe Suzuka appeared, with a subtle expression that seemed a little happy.

As soon as she saw Dong Yesi, she hurried over, and then said excitedly: "Asi, Uncle Ma Dou told me just now that my father said that he is willing to reimburse us for all travel expenses in Aomori County. Does this mean that he has approved it? us?"

Reimbursement of travel expenses is not a big deal, the most important thing is the information revealed from this small incident.

This made Higashino Division couldn't help but sigh.

She really deserves to be an invisible daughter-in-law, even she has to beat around the bush to express her attitude - her father-in-law is simply so arrogant.

"It seems that I have passed the test for the time being." Higashinosi patted Konoe Lianghua's head, and said something to reassure her.

"Yeah!" Konoe Lianghua nodded vigorously, and then smirked: "As expected, Asi is really good at dealing with such a difficult father."

What she said made Higashinoji a little speechless.

Konoe Tsushima is indeed difficult to deal with - but that's only for Higashino Division.

If Konoe Lianghua went up today, Konoe Tsushima would be able to directly agree to the marriage in less than ten minutes.

However, Higashino did not go to the point where he hurt his father-in-law, so he more or less said something to Konoe Tsushima: "It's not that bad, your father is actually quite friendly to me, and it's not difficult to deal with. , and he also likes your daughter very much."

These words came from the heart, but as soon as they said it, Konoe Lianghua showed a slightly surprised expression: "Asi, why are you speaking for my father?"

"And I've always wondered if my father hated me a bit."

what?
Your father kind of hates you?

Higashino was stunned, thinking that Konoe Lianghua was good everywhere, but there was indeed a problem with his eyesight.

But when Konoe Suzuka began to explain, Higashinoji probably understood why she felt that Konoe Tsushima hated her.

According to Konoe Lianghua, she got a lot of good grades in her studies when she was a child, but Konoe Tsushima never praised her like other parents did, and always left after saying something coldly.

Although he attended the parents' meeting every time, he didn't show any encouragement when he watched her speak at the parent meeting. His lips trembled, and he seemed a little impatient. He always looked down at his watch, as if he was worried that he would not be able to catch up with the business conversation. .

At such times, Konoe Suzuka, who is full of grievances, will go to Konoe Rinka's house. Konoe Mato, an uncle, will always prepare her with many gifts to celebrate, and they are always things she likes.

This is why Konoe Suzuka is so close to Konoe Rinka.

After listening to Konoe Lianghua's words, Higashino just opened his mouth, his mind was full of surprise—it's really you, old man.

You are too arrogant, right?
According to Higashinoji's understanding, the lips trembling at the parent meeting, it is estimated that Konoe was too nervous about the horse, so he could only face the other parents with a tense face to ease his emotions. The reason why he lowered his head to look at his watch was actually him Touched, she was wiping tears, and she didn't want Konoe Liangka to see, if she really hated Konoe Liangka, Konoe Tsushima probably wouldn't even attend the parent-teacher meeting.

Konoe Matou prepares presents. Konoe Suzuka always likes things. This can be seen completely. It is estimated that Konoe Tsushima wanted to celebrate her, so he bought Konoe Matou and gave it to Konoe Cool flowers.

How else could it be such a coincidence?How could Konoe Matou always happen to know Konoe Suzuka's preferences?
After figuring out this relationship, Higashino even rubbed his temples.

The old man in my family is not bad.

It is said that father's love is heavy and invisible. You are too invisible, right?It's almost completely invisible.

"Hey, anyway, Lianghua, don't blame your father-in-law too much." Higashinoji called Konoe Tsushima the invisible guardian, and then added: "He didn't deny the relationship between us. It means that he still respects your opinion, right?"

"Asi, you want to say that. It's true." Konoe Lianghua nodded in thought, a little stunned: "So, my father has always loved me?

"Well, although it's not as good as me, I still love you very much." Higashino Si added cheerfully.

I still have to say this, it's not a backstab of my father-in-law, it's just a way to deepen my relationship with Konoe Lianghua.

"Hey." Konoe Liangka patted her head with a smirk, and reached out to grab Higashinoji's palm: "Asi, let's go, Yumi and the others are still waiting for us. We all agreed to go this afternoon." It is really a good thing that the whale watching can be reimbursed by my father."

"Well, then let's go back quickly." Dong Yesi lowered his head and looked at the time.

Indeed.
It was already noon, and he had stayed at Konoe's house for a whole morning.

Time to leave too.

"I made a special appointment for the whale hunting activity before the trip. I will call them later."

Toshino said with a smile.

But when it comes to fishing, you will have to take a close look on the boat or in the fishing pool. It is impossible to let them pull the fishing nets. At most, you will have another meal of whale meat later, and the whole activity will be over.

And Higashino Division also has another thing that is a bit concerned.

That is the New Century Painting Association mentioned by Bunta Kageyama earlier.
Come to Aomori Prefecture.

You can't just take a look, right?
