Chapter 33 Section ten

It began to rain early in the morning.The rain was too thin to be seen, only the humidity and the cold enveloped everything. It was the drizzle of autumn. Xiao Pingji, who had been working hard in the yard with a towel wrapped in a handkerchief a moment ago, could not see him now, only heard his voice.He seems to be talking to the middle of the same dormitory outside the wall.But it was the other party who spoke, and Xiao Pingci blindly agreed, only listening to him repeatedly "uhe, wuhe". Heishiro lay on the porch looking at the yard. The dull pain in the waist is something that happened very late after returning from Yu Xipo last night.If you walk around casually, you will definitely flash to your waist as usual.At this time, you should have a good rest and take care of yourself. At dawn, he sent Xiaoping to ask his colleagues for leave.

So, now I am swaggering around at home and dodging lazy. Just lying down will make you sleepy.Heishirou's head was also like a drizzle, and the mist was just right.It's just that in the mist, the conversation with Soemon Minatoya last night still surfaced intermittently from time to time. No one would harbor resentment towards Aoi and want to kill her to vent their anger.Soemon repeated this sentence several times, speaking clearly and firmly.Except Ateng and Saki. And Ateng has entered a world where he can no longer plot this matter. On the other hand, Sakichi swears to the gods that he is innocent, and Heishiro also believes him.

So, who is the murderer—— "Sir." Tang Zhi's door opened suddenly, and Xi Jun came. "Lie down like this, your waist will catch cold instead. I'll make the bed, how about you take a good rest?" Heishiro couldn't answer immediately, because the sentence "Sanggong" just now reminded him of Ateng's appearance. "That's good." Heishiro replied with his elbow pillowed.Xijun wiped the floor with his footbags, walked across the room, sat down beside him, stretched out his hand from back to waist and roughly stroked it, and said: "It's so stiff and tight! Let Dr. Xingan take a look? Early diagnosis and treatment will prevent it from being too serious."

Dr. Koan is Takahashi's local doctor, and he also treated Heishiro, who had slipped to the waist, before.This morning Xijun also wanted to inform the doctor immediately, it was Heishiro who stopped her.The back pain was real, but Heishiro knew half of it was laziness.Dr. Xing'an is well-known and very humane. He has many patients and is very busy. "It's a small matter, just lie down and lie down." "Well, at least some plasters? I'll go around when I get back and ask the doctor for a prescription." Every three days, Xi-kun goes to a school in Koami-cho, Nihombashi, to teach children how to read and write. That is her part-time job.I have to go out today, so I said that I will take a detour to Takahashi on the way back.

"I hope it won't be too much trouble to get a prescription." "The doctor is familiar with your problem of flashing to the waist, it's no problem." Xijun only went there once every three days, because the Yingming School was very popular and there were so many students, he couldn't take care of it all at once, so he was divided into classes.Heishiro Hoshikun's class was taught during the days when only girls went to school. The school basically teaches reading, writing, abacus, and abacus, but it also teaches girls manners.I heard that Xijun is a very strict teacher.I really don't know what expression she has when people call "Sir", Heishiro wants to take a peek.But if he accidentally showed his face and let the students see that Mr. Terrible's husband is such a lazy man, he might lose the respect of the students immediately, so Heishiro never went.

Thinking of this - There is also a school in a monastery called Fachunyuan next to the Yuxipo mansion, where the daughter of the maid Ah Liu goes to school.I heard that when Heishiro was away yesterday, Haruka, a lady there, passed by and said hello. Since Xiang Minaya couldn't find any clues, he had to ask people who knew about Aoi's life when he was alive.Needless to say, the people from my own family and Ah Liu, the uncle who sells vegetables frequently, the boy sent by the house, and Mr. Haruka must all be seen one by one.By the way, Heishiro asked Ah Liu to write the list. I wonder if she has finished it?

Maybe she has some subtle discoveries.I hope so. "I wonder if it will rain all day." Xikun glanced at the misty drizzle, rubbed Heishiro's back and waist, and murmured. "The drizzle makes people sad for some reason, and even the sky is stained with loneliness." This is as cute as a little girl.Heishiro suddenly felt something, and blurted out without thinking: "Looking at this kind of rain, do you suddenly want to cry for no reason?" Xi-kun stopped and stared at Heishiro. "Oh, why do you ask that?" "Because you talk like a young girl who hasn't left the court."

Xi Jun laughed loudly. "No matter what kind of woman you are, no matter how old you are, you still have some girlish feelings. That's how women are." "yes?" "It's like no matter how weak a man's body is or how old he is, he will still be a bit lustful." Heishiro scratched the tip of his nose. "What about being jealous?" "Jealous?" "No matter how old you are, will you be jealous? No, will you be jealous when you get jealous?" Xijun tilted his head slightly and thought for a while.In the midst of this, Heishiro's back was mossed again.

"It depends on what kind of vinegar you eat." She gave this answer after careful consideration. "Oh." "Sometimes even if you are not jealous, you can't forget it. Sometimes even if you forget why you are jealous, the jealousy will not disappear." "It's so difficult." Heishiro tried to imagine the profile of Atou, who was living alone in Fujitaku, and his mind was disturbed.But in the incessant rain, it was difficult to concentrate. So difficult.Xikun repeated Heishiro's words and sighed softly. "Yeah. Fortunately, I've never encountered anything that required bitterness, so I don't know much about it."

Then I added a sentence: Go ask Kawaiya's sister, maybe she can tell you in detail. "It's all because the boss of Kawaiya is too lustful." He is Yukinosuke's father.This man who looks like a ghost-faced animal head is said to be very fierce at playing with women, but he is a good businessman, and he is an honest man on the surface. Therefore, before Yumisuke frequently came and went out of the house, Heishiro had no idea about his own behavior. Brother-in-law is actually such a person. "You mean, your sister will get angry because of jealousy?" "I'm so angry, I still count them one by one." Xi Jun smiled. "However, I never thought of revenge. I think my sister is angry. Of course, she is jealous as a wife, but it is also because of Kawaiya's decency. Perhaps the latter is the main reason."

After finishing speaking, he suddenly slapped Heishiro's waist with both palms. "Sanggong, what did you do to play such a charade with me?" grumble!coming!Heishiro rolled his eyes. "Oh, it's terrible! Xiaopingji, Xiaopingji!" When I was in a hurry, someone yelled "excuse me".Yukinosuke is here. "It's been a long time since I saw Uncle look like this." Gong Zhisuke said, it was difficult to tell whether it was ridicule or sympathy. Heishiro lay down on the thin seat cushion and squinted at his nephew, only to see that his face was as stunningly beautiful as usual.Heishiro thought to himself, a delicate face is a mask.This little guy is actually teasing me behind my back, right? "I can't bear to see it." "Then don't laugh." "I'm not smiling." Saying that, Yukinosuke blinked his eyes.Must have suppressed a smile. Xijun hurried to Yingming School, and finally Xiaoping went to Takahashi to pick up the plaster.Gong Zhirou was an acquaintance, so he sat by the pillow and took care of Heishiro diligently. "Anyway, today I'm here to meet Lord Jiubei, okay? You're making an appointment for the afternoon, right?" It was for this reason that Yumonosuke came to Heishiro's house. For a while last night, apart from asking if anyone else held a grudge against Aoi, there were other important matters.How much did the house participate in the big battle where Kui rectified Sun Ba, and what happened to Sun Ba afterwards. Hiring an illusion troupe should cost quite a bit of silver.When asked, Soemon readily admitted. "Having said that, the troupe was originally supported by me, and the arrangements for that day did not cost a lot of money. After listening to Aoi's explanation, I immediately asked them to prepare, but this is not a big deal. If Mr. Izutsu wants to see them, I can do it at any time. Make arrangements, just as you command." They don't perform publicly, but they use big names or wealthy businessmen as guests. In other words, there are bosses behind the scenes.Showing off at the boss's banquet is what they do.That being the case, Yu Xipo's performance was originally the troupe's forte. "How about the insane Sun Ba, who was hit by an illusion? You guys are also going to take care of him, right?" Under Soemon's signal, Jiuhei replied: "That day, after Sun Ba escaped from Yuzai slope house, his appearance was really unusual, and it was a quiet morning, and he was immediately found by Banya and stayed behind. The younger one immediately went to show that he was a servant of the family, took Sun Ba back, and handed it over to the housekeeper who quietly waited beside him to take him away. After that, Sun Ba was supervised by the younger one." So it is no wonder that when Ah Liu raised her concerns and doubts, Jiubei was able to assert that Sun Ba had nothing to do with Aoi's murder. "So, where is Sun Ba now?" "In Minatoya's villa in Kawasaki, living with his servants. Although he is still mentally disturbed after suffering from hallucinations, but let him live peacefully, and he will not lose control again." In other words, Sun Ba is currently working under Jiubingwei. "So as long as Izutsu-san wants to see it, I can see it immediately, but it is difficult to bring it from Kawasaki, and I have to work with Izutsu-san." Jiubei said. "Isn't it good to tell Ah Liu these words as well?" "That can't be done. Ah Liu will definitely sympathize with Sun Ba and feel guilty. Ah Liu is honest and kind, so Mrs. Kui strictly forbids telling her about this." This judgment was indeed correct, and Heishiro felt the same way.Maybe Ah Liu will soften his heart and say that he will work with Sun Ba and take care of him.Immediately forget the hatred and anger, frequently think about what is wrong with me, and be kind-hearted to the point of being straightforward. Once these questions were answered, there was nothing left to ask, despite all the fanfare and preparation.After a few words of disinterested talk, Minaya promised that he would never have anything to do with Saki again, that he would not be allowed to enter or leave the Fuji House, and that he would not provoke him and Hui again, and the meeting ended. However, before leaving, Jiubei whispered to Heishiro in a low voice like children exchanging secrets. "I'm taking the liberty, I have something to say to Mr. Izutsu. Is it convenient to visit tomorrow?" Although Heishiro was surprised, he still expressed his convenience.Where?The little one went to the dormitory to disturb.Are you wandering around the city?It must be embarrassing to be bumped into by the former tenants of Tie Ping Za Yuan, right?The little ones will be extra careful... "What did Lord Jiuhei want to say?" Yumonosuke was also incredulous. "It seems that they want to avoid the owner, Master Kouwu, and tell Uncle something in private, but I can't guess." "Well, you'll know it when you hear it." Heishiro was very innocent. "By the way," Heishiro didn't dare to move, and asked Yumonosuke, "You didn't look quite right yesterday." "Me?" Yukinosuke pressed his index finger to the tip of his nose. "Talking about the gentleman named Haruka from Hoshuin who passed by and said hello, and her kimono smelling good, you don't know what you're thinking, do you?" Oh, that's the thing.Yukinosuke slapped his knee. "Brother Zuoji also said he could smell the fragrance when he ran close to Mrs. Kui's body, does Uncle remember?" Zoji did say so. "I thought maybe it was the smell on the woman's clothes." Heishiro was taken aback. "Then the murderer was a woman?" "I don't know if I can jump that far all at once, but there may have been a woman staying in Mrs. Kui's room." Heishiro lay on his side, exhaling through his nose. "Is it the smell of Aoi's new dress hanging on the hanger?" "Uncle, freshly made clothes have no smell. Unless they are put together with a sachet, or the sachet is put in the sleeve or bosom, or the clothes are scented. Moreover, if the scent comes from the bellflower pattern kimono Brother Zuoji must have smelled it." "What about the smell of the kimono on Aoi?" "If it is, Brother Saki can also smell it." After finishing speaking, Yumonosuke suddenly twitched. "What? Pee?" "No. No, yes." It confuses people. "Just piss, yes, yes." "Do you want it?" Yukinosuke blushed. "This is really impolite, it's really hard to say, but I still want to say it. Uncle, when people are strangled to death, most of them-well, should I say that the bottom will relax..." Heishiro understood what he meant.When a person is strangled or hanged to death, most of them become incontinent. "Well, yes. You know even that." "Inquiring about the past with Big Forehead, we will also encounter such cases." So that's the case, what I heard. "I think Mrs. Aoi is the same way. That room must be..." It should stink of filth. "But it was the scent that Sakichi remembered, and it was the scent that caught his attention first. So it must have been quite strong, hadn't it?" Heishiro nodded, indeed, the smell of urine is pungent, and the smell can actually overwhelm the smell... "So I thought of kimonos and sachets, but I couldn't figure it out. The smell from the sachet is not that strong. Unless the sachet is broken and the contents inside are scattered, most of them seem to be gone. So, the scent Saki-san smelled, Where did it come from? I've been thinking about it." Heishiro stared at Yumonosuke and smiled. "Your rich bedwetting experience is worth it." Yukinosuke blushed angrily. "I'm serious. I think it's necessary to go to Brother Saji again and ask carefully what kind of fragrance it feels like. Can I go to Oshima to disturb?" "Well, I leave it to you." Although I don't know how to find out the source of the scent is related to the murderer who killed Aoi, but the way Yumonosuke's brain works is very special, letting him do it will not be in vain.Heishiro knew this very well. "I mentioned it before, Uncle." Gong Zhisuke put his knees together, and said seriously: "Ms. Kui's murder case was very clean, which is still very interesting. I always think that this murder case was a huge misunderstanding, or it was committed by accident. It's just that I don't know how to say it yet..." He cast his eyes down in thought for a moment. "I believe that the reason for the murderer's attack may not be found out from Mrs. Kui's side no matter how hard it is." Heishiro listened silently.Gong Zhisuke nodded several times, and murmured, "Well, I still can't explain clearly, I'm really anxious." "I'll think about it again." Heishiro had no objection.It only took a lot of effort to swallow the words "Don't just think about those". "Xiao Pingci is really slow." "I gonna go see." Kuminosuke stood up, said "ah, that's right", and turned around. "Uncle, I'm sorry, I forgot, Aunt Ade wants me to send a message." "Ade? What's the matter? The restaurant business should be good, right?" Saeki Jonosuke was satisfied last time, and Ade and Ade's helper Yanyi greatly increased their confidence.Heishiro was also very happy to hear that there were already guests a few days ago. "Business is going smoothly, but because of this, Aunt Ade misses Ah Feng even more." Ah Feng is the proprietress of the small restaurant that Ade took over. She left the shop and the people in the shop and ran away, missing. "Be a good adult, leave on your own, or take the money, what is there to worry about?" "You can't persuade Aunt Ade with such words, and uncle knows it too! Aunt Ade feels that if this continues, she seems to have robbed Afeng's shop, and she feels very sorry." So I hope to find a way to find Ah Feng. "She didn't tell me anything." "Aunt Ade also knows that if she mentions it to Uncle, Uncle will definitely say that there is no need for it, so don't take it to heart." Heishiro squinted his eyes, trying to think of Ah Feng's appearance, voice, and eyes that shone with a strange light.She and Ateng are different types of women, but they are somewhat similar.Maybe that's the case, Heishiro's head confuses Ato with Amine. "Aunt Ade asked me if I could ask Chief Masagoro to find someone like this, and asked me to ask Chief Masagoro if he would agree." "I don't think Masagoro will bother you. But can you tell me about it?" "I can't hide it from Uncle. Besides, once Masagoro starts his actions, Uncle will notice sooner or later." Ade doesn't know the disgraceful inside story behind Afeng's departure, but both Heishiro and Masagoro know it.Although Gong Zhisuke also played a role, he didn't know that he was involved in it.Heishiro wished he had better keep it that way. Heishiro inquired further: "Aren't the two girls left behind by Afeng named Acan and Awen? Do they know about Afeng's past?" "Aunt Ade was even more upset when I heard that she almost didn't know about it." "Uncle also looks upset." Gong Zhisuke added this sentence. "What happened?" "It's fine." Heishiro lied. "Okay, please go and ask Masagoro! It's not that I don't understand Ade's mood, and once she says something, she won't listen to it." Now that Ade has taken over the running of the shop, things are different.no way. Yukinosuke answered "Yes" and smiled in relief.Speaking of which, I also want to help with this, and learn how to find someone. This rain made Jiubei cheaper.The big umbrella and the turban wrapped around the head to prevent moisture, even if you pass by an acquaintance, you may not recognize it for a while. Xiaoping came back for the second time.While putting plaster on Heishiro's back, Kyubei came to visit.Gong Zhisuke quickly hid, of course, the dictation work has been fully prepared in advance.The courteous Jiubingwei brought snacks, handbags and other things, Xiaoping thanked him for accepting them, and greeted Jiubingwei at the door for a long time before bringing Jiubingwei in. Heishiro first apologized for being bent into a hook.Jiubei seemed taken aback, but immediately talked enthusiastically, such as to prevent low back pain, you can cut the front heel of the clogs a little lower, and walk around more wearing them; , Nakura Hospital in Senju has a veritable famous doctor, it is worth visiting and so on. This reminded Heishiro of the time when Jiubei was the long-winded manager in Tieping Zayuan, and he was very happy.Although Jiuhei grows older every time he sees him, it's like going back in time like this.Although the past was only two short years ago, when I think back to the time in Tie Ping Za Yuan, it seems like a distant past, which makes me feel lost. Xiaoping came in with tea for the first time, put on the snacks brought by Jiubei, praised that everything looked delicious, and then stepped back.As soon as he left, Heishiro and Kyubei fell silent. The raindrops kept ticking. With a hoarse cough, Jiubei raised his head. "Master Minato thought that the younger one had returned to Kawasaki." Jiubei must be planning to return to Kawasaki directly after leaving here.I saw him carrying luggage and wearing a blue thick-soled foot bag. Heishiro groaned and smiled. "Is this the first time you've lied to Minato?" "Well..." Jiubei thought seriously, "It's not just two or three times." "It's the servant's job to lie to the master if it's necessary, isn't it?" "You are absolutely right." A smile was carved on Kyubei's persimmon-like cheeks. "Uncle Izutsu is unwell, so it's inconvenient to gossip. Even so, I came here this time to report a somewhat sad thing." Hearing him start like this, it was hard to find the right words to respond.Maybe Koheiji, who always settles everything with "uh heh", is actually very smart, Heishiro thought. "I'm trying to figure out what Izutsu-san is thinking. I'm really smart. Please forgive me." Jiubei saluted. "But last night—no, earlier, the little one speculated that Mr. Izutsu was quite dissatisfied with the attitude of the little one's master, Minaya Soemon, towards his wife." He was referring to Soemon's ruthlessness towards Atou. "I think that you have this idea because you feel the same way yourself. It's quite complicated." Jiubei suddenly lowered his gaze. "There are difficulties between the master and Mrs. Ateng." "Oh." I don't know if Yumisuke is listening. "The master never mentioned this matter. And as early as thirty years ago, he sealed it up and put it away. He hid it in the deepest part of his heart and never touched it again." "In other words, it's not long before Soemon and Atou got married, right?" Yes.As he spoke, Jiubei nodded deeply, his hands gently wrapping his left and right knees, his thin shoulders slightly stiffened. "The eldest son of the house, the heir, Master Soichiro, is not the master's child." Some plots, even though they are common, are never thought of personally.This happens a lot, and this time is no exception. Rather than being surprised, it would be more accurate to say that it was unexpected.Heishiro couldn't respond, and his expression didn't change. "The marriage between the master and Mrs. Ateng was arranged by Mrs. Ateng's father because he saw the great future of the master as a businessman." "I've heard that." "No matter how you look at this marriage, it's safe, so I'm so happy..." Jiubingwei was at a loss for words. "It's just that Mrs. Ateng had someone else in her heart at the time." Is Soichiro that person's child? "So, after Atou married Soemon, he was still with that man..." "Yes, let's still communicate in private. It's just that the young master Soichiro died of illness not long after he was born." Mrs.The voice of Atou calling Soemon suddenly appeared in Heishiro's mind. Atou's infidelity to Soemon—— "Master Izutsu, in fact, I don't know the details. Because the master doesn't know that the little one knows about it." At that time, only Soemon, Atou, Atou's sweetheart, and Atou's parents were the only ones who knew about this awkward matter. "Then who did you listen to?" "Master Soichiro himself, and it's a recent incident. In February this year, I was ordered to take care of Master Soujiro who was sick. It's been about half a month, right?" Soichiro came to Kawasaki's villa alone to visit Soujiro without any of his servants. "By the way... I also brought a peach branch. I said that I saw it on the road so beautiful that I couldn't help but broke it off." Are you bringing Peach Blossom to visit your younger brother?Very sweet. "What a good brother." Jiubei smiled as if he heard someone praise him. "Master Soichiro has a calm and warm personality, and his character is as gentle as the sun." Minatoya's two sons are not like their father, and their talents are mediocre, so Soemon loves his niece Aoi's son Sakichi very much. "The younger one mentioned before that Master Soujiro suffered from a kind of qi depression, and it wasn't that he couldn't get up. On the day Master Soichiro came to visit, the two said that they hadn't had a good drink for a long time, so the younger one prepared it. The two brothers have a very good relationship. It was quite a pleasure.” Sojiro was tired from eating and drinking, so he went to bed first, so only Kubei and Soichiro were left. "Before becoming the manager of Tie Ping Zayuan, the younger ones mostly stayed in 'Shengyuan', and Master Soichiro didn't care about the business of 'Shengyuan', so before that, the younger ones didn't get close to the eldest master. But even the little ones on weekdays From the perspective of the little one who had the opportunity to stay by his side, Master Soichiro that day, how should I put it, was a little depressed and seemed to have something on his mind." Jiubei said that he always felt that it was a bit strange for the young master to visit alone. "It's just that when the young master and Soujiro were laughing and drinking, their voices and faces were as cheerful as usual, and the young one thought he had misunderstood. However, when he was alone with the young one, his appearance changed... The young one drank with him. After a while, the young master will talk about that matter." Kyubei blinked.Dry eyes and dry eyelids.Only the rain kept falling and wet the yard. "Don't you know anything? Haven't you heard from your father?" This is how Soichiro started. "The little one asked what was the matter, and the young master changed his mind. He asked about Soujiro's illness. Is it really a heart disease? Is it really not a serious illness? Ask again and again." Jiubei explained that there is no need to worry.The doctor's diagnosis was so, and Soujiro himself said that his body was neither painful nor itchy, and he had no fever.It's just that I don't have enough strength. Even if I want to think about complicated things like doing business, I can't help but be unable to concentrate. After hearing this, Soichiro said even more strange words, which surprised Jiubei. "Sojiro will succeed his father in the future, so he has to cheer up." The eldest son is Soichiro, and he is the heir.Everyone in the room never suspected it.Moreover, Soichiro has been doing business with Soemon, and is honored as the "little boss" in the store, and he is in charge of several important customers. "The little one couldn't help laughing, saying that if the young master wants to say such things to tease the young one, isn't the young master Soichiro sitting here himself, but the incarnation of a civet cat? The civet cat ran out of the mountain to drink with the blooming peach blossoms gone?" Soichiro also laughed. "Really? It turns out that Jiubei didn't know. You are my father's confidant. I thought my father would tell you." Then, with serious eyes, he said: "So that's the case, maybe I'm not necessarily a civet cat. Because I'm obviously not my father's biological son, but I have been deceiving everyone as the son of the house until today." Having said this, Jiuhei stopped to drink tea, washed away the bitterness of the words coming out of his mouth, and closed his eyes. Heishiro had been lying in the same posture, gradually becoming uncomfortable, almost overwhelmed by the solemn atmosphere. "Kyubei." "yes?" "Can you turn me over? Turn me over and change sides. Then, you sit here too. Take it easy." It is a toss just to turn the body.Heishiro couldn't help shouting twice: "Oh! Oh!"Pain!But Xiao Ping couldn't come here again, and Gong Zhisuke did not miss it. "is this okay?" Kyubei asked out of breath. "Well, much better. Thank you." The scene in the room also changed.I usually forget that being able to stand up on my own is such a grateful thing. "By the way, help me get a snack, and you can eat it before it becomes dry and hard." The two ate dessert in silence.In the white cake crust, the red beans reflected light.One chew, the mouth is full of sweetness. "This matter," Heishiro swallowed, "Who did Soichiro hear?" Kyubei also made a growl in his throat. "The young master said Mrs. Ateng told him." Mother Tells Son "You're an Unfaithful Son"? "when?" "Five years ago in the first lunar month, Mrs. Ateng called the young master into the room." "What happened at the time?" "I don't know... I can't think of a small one." That was the period when Minatoya believed that Soichiro was in charge of his own business and could be the master of the business on his own.Kubei added. "At that time, the young one was in charge of managing the Tie Ping Courtyard, and would come to the small house to pay New Year's greetings on the first day of the new year." "Just going to pay New Year's greetings, even if something happens inside the house, I won't be able to detect it." "Yes, exactly." At that time, Ateng said to Soichiro: You are not the master's child, and the master knew about it as soon as you were born.Even so, the master has always said that you want to inherit the business, but it will be difficult to talk about this kind of thing in the future.Even if the master doesn't let you inherit it one day, you can only admit it. You must be aware of this. And he also confessed: You keep this matter in your heart. "Why do you say such tormenting things?" Heishiro couldn't understand it at all. "If you say 'You are not Koiya's son, leave here today', then I understand; or 'Souemon still decided not to let you inherit, it is my responsibility to confess this matter to you', I also I understand. But what Ateng did was to tell him a painful truth, but asked him to pretend he didn't hear it, didn't he?" Jiubei lowered his head, and the corners of his wrinkled and loose mouth were covered with a thin layer of pastry white powder. "Mrs. Atou has her own ideas. Master Soichiro..." "How does he explain it?" "I think Madam wants him to realize that it means that he will have to leave the house in the future." In this way, five years have passed. ——Therefore, Soujiro must be healthy physically and mentally, because I am leaving. "Does Soujiro know about this?" Jiubei shook his head slowly. "What about Soemon? Did you make any moves—such as preparing to drive Soichiro away, or revealing yourself?" The answer to this question is also a shake of the head. Heishiro frowned carefully, afraid of pulling his waist. "Then, Soichiro inherits, nothing changes, right?" "Only my own mood is different." Of course, Ateng is really talkative. "You guys are so tolerant." Heishiro was half amazed and half angry. "It's good for you, Soichiro, and Sakichi too. Soemon, Atou, and Aoi didn't think about you at all. Why do you still tolerate it? If I were Soichiro, five years ago As soon as you know about this matter, you will leave early, or else you will let go and spend time and wine. Hearing people say that you are not your own son and have no qualifications to inherit, you must remember this well, and then you have to pretend not to know and learn to do business seriously, Zong Yilang That’s great, it’s like the reincarnation of the Buddha!” The little one thinks so too.Saying that, Jiubei smiled desolately. "Since the Tie Ping Zayuan incident, Mr. Izutsu has seen all the scandalous things about the house, and the little one is quite sorry. There are also many benefits to the house, otherwise Master Soichiro, Sakichi, and the young ones would not be able to follow the master like this .” "So what about Ms. Meiling?" Heishiro asked maliciously, baring his teeth on purpose. "The girl hates the quarrels between her parents, and doesn't like her brothers." "When I was young, the young lady always followed her brothers, and always said that she liked her two brothers the most, and wanted him to play with her." Kyubei narrowed his eyes in nostalgia.The anger in Heishiro's stomach was still hard to calm down. "Say whatever you want." Heishiro dropped the sentence. "And then? Kuhei, why are you telling me this? I don't think I need to know this." Jiubei sat with his back straight, and wiped the cake flour from the corner of his mouth gracefully. "Since this is the case, the topic of an heir may come up soon. So I want to tell you about it, Mr. Izutsu. I hope you won't be too surprised." This is no longer thoughtful, but unfounded worry. "Besides, the little one also wants to make a little excuse." "Justification? You?" "For the master." Kyubei raised his eyes. "Uncle Izutsu must think that the master is too cold and severe to Mrs. Ateng, and it is really inappropriate compared with Mrs. Aoi." Exactly.Anyone with blood and tears would think so! "That's why you...isn't it?" Heishiro nodded. "Soemon is indifferent to Atou, and there is an unknown reason behind it, you want to say that?" He loves Aoi deeply and has had a large number of women, but it was not Soemon who betrayed Ato first.Ateng gave birth to a child who is not related to him, but still occupies the position of the proprietress of the small house, she was the one who betrayed first. "I see, I see." Heishiro stared at the wall and said.On this side the yard was out of sight, only the rustling of the rain. "It's all excuses and sophistry. You are still Soemon's loyal subordinate from head to toe." Jiubei was silent, but Heishiro was furious. "To make things so troublesome, it's better to get divorced early. It's the same with Atou, wouldn't it be good to just elope with Soichiro's biological father! The same is true for Soemon. When Atou gave birth to a child, since he knew it was not his own, Wouldn’t it be enough to kick the two out of the house right now? Procrastinating, let the seedlings that could be easily removed take root and flourish, and the vision is terrible.” You are absolutely right, Kubei said discouragedly.Heishiro rolled his eyes to look at him. There were tears in Jiubingwei's eyes. "If Master Soichiro," his voice was as small as a whisper, "there is no doubt that he is not the master's child." "Didn't you say no?" "But the young master's voice and manner still have something like the master." I just don’t know, Jiubei squeezed out his voice. "I don't know what the facts are. Master Soichiro was born after the master and his wife got married. On October 10th, full-term, there was no premature birth. In fact, even Mrs. Ateng didn't know who the child was. It's just that Mrs. Ateng... ..." Is hope a child between a loved one?So he told Soemon, and Soemon also forbeared.However, the anger that was swallowed along with this incident turned into poison, and finally spread throughout the body. At this time Aoi appeared, and there were a large number of women.Between Soemon and Atou there was a gap that could no longer be filled. There was no bridge or boat to cross it. Even so, it is still impossible to cut the weeds and eradicate the roots, and the roots are still broken. I still do not get it.surrender. "I said, Kubei." Jiubei looked at Heishiro, tears also fell from the corners of his eyes. "Loving and being loved, liking and hating, can't you live on these alone? These things are secondary, and you can't get busy just to fill your stomach every day. I can understand these hard-working people very well, but I really can't control the things at home." Heishiro threw down these few words in a self-defeating manner.Jiubei did not answer, listening to the sound of rain. In the distance, Kuminosuke sneezed.
