Chapter 40
Maternal Kindness and Filial Piety

Although he complained, Higashiya Masaki didn't stop Yono.

The wider Yono's interests were, the more he could enjoy.

As expected, the position of the official wife belonged to Yono!

“Then I’ll leave it to you,” Higashiya Masaki said, reaching out to press Yono's head, pushing her down. “I’ll reward you with a dragon crystal.”

“Hey, I just woke up!” Yono said, dissatisfied.

“Don’t talk nonsense, you have to go to work, finish the battle quickly.” Higashiya Masaki said.

Yono pouted and knelt down again.

Afternoon.

Rarely, Yono went to work in black stockings.

To cover up her swollen knees.

That evening.

Yono returned to the Yukinoshita family for dinner.

She had been fooling around with Higashiya Masaki for more than ten days, she had developed a taste for it and couldn't stop, and her work efficiency had visibly decreased.

If she didn't go home, her mother would be furious.

“I’m back!”

Yono walked into the house with light steps, her expression froze when she saw the living room.

On the sofa.

A slender and imposing figure stood like a plum blossom in the middle of winter.

She sat upright, with a beautiful appearance.

It was her good sister, Yukinoshita Yukino!

“Yukino?”

“You… why did you come back too?”

“Hehe, it’s great, we haven't had dinner together for a long time.”

Yono looked guilty.

“Long time no see, sister.” Yukino turned her head and nodded faintly.

This indifferent attitude made Yono even more afraid.

She thought that tonight would be a battle against her mother, so she only made plans to deal with her mother, and hadn't figured out how to deal with Yukino yet!

Bad.

I’m not going to be killed by my own sister, am I?

“I, I’ll go to the kitchen to help.” Yono chose to avoid the battle and slipped into the kitchen.

Running away is shameful, but it works!

“Heh…” Yukino let out a scornful smile.

In the kitchen.

Yono took out her phone and quickly called Higashiya Masaki.

【Yono: Yukino is also back for dinner!】

【Yono: What should I do?】

【Yono: I haven’t figured out how to handle little Yukino yet!】

【Yono: Online, urgently!!】

At Hiratsuka Shizuka's house.

Higashiya Masaki looked at the information on his phone, line, with a strange expression.

Good heavens.

Yukino actually came home for dinner, it seems she’s determined to kill you, your sister.

“Hey, Higashiya!”

Beside him, a voice of dissatisfaction came.

“Is it Yono’s message again?”

“Will you put down your phone and come over here to play games with me?”

Hiratsuka Shizuka held a controller, looking at him with dissatisfaction in front of the big screen.

Sorry, Yono.

You’re on your own, Amen.

Higashiya Masaki silently mourned for Yono in his heart, quickly replied with a sentence, then silenced the line and put down the phone.

【Higashiya Masaki: Good luck!】

I’ll add you to the oil!

Yono was amused, her chest rising and falling violently.

You’re going to leave me to die, aren’t you?

Don't let me get the chance, Higashiya Masaki!

Yono took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down, saying to herself: “Calm down, Yono!”

“Little Yukino's personality, she wouldn’t tear each other's faces off and attack you.”

“Moreover, she hasn't officially been with Higashiya yet, she has no reason to get angry, she can only secretly be angry.”

After some sorting.

Yono calmed down a lot, she even had the mood to steal food in the kitchen.

Not long after.

Dinner was ready.

The three mistresses of the Yukinoshita family sat down.

Yukino's mother sat in the middle, with her two daughters, Yukino and Yono, on her left and right.

This should have been a harmonious family gathering.

But, the youngest daughter, Yukino, had a frosty face, her momentum was like winter, exuding cold air all the time.

The temperature of the entire dining room seemed to drop drastically.

“…”

Yukino's mother even felt a little goosebumps, she couldn't help but look at the other side, at her eldest daughter.

She saw her eldest daughter smiling warmly, seemingly oblivious to Yukino's coldness, and speaking in a cheerful and lively tone, about various topics.

Regardless of whether Yukino and her listened or not, or could follow or not.

Anyway, Yono just kept talking, enthusiastically.

“…”

Yukino's mother felt that she was being roasted on one side and frozen on the other.

She was already a little numb.

She never expected that her two daughters would one day fight each other for a man, without backing down.

“You two are fighting so happily, do you want your mother to join in and compete with you?” Yukino’s mother said expressionlessly.

Shhh!

Instantly, both Yono and Yukino showed a look of fear.

Mom is going to join too?

Suddenly, the two of them beat a hasty retreat and stopped being at odds with each other.

Instead, they looked at their mother with vigilance.

“What kind of ears do you have?” Yukino’s mother said helplessly, “I’m just making fun of you!”

Yukino frowned and said: “Mother, you don’t usually talk like this.”

“Yes, you didn’t talk like this before.” Yono nodded repeatedly.

Yukino’s mother didn’t care, she said faintly: “You were still young before, and your father was still alive, so some adult topics, of course, won’t be talked about in front of you... But you’ve grown up now, haven’t you?”

“Don’t underestimate the threshold of a married woman.”

“You young people’s love affairs, what haven't I seen when I was younger?”

Not necessarily!

Yono retorted rebelliously in her heart.

Not to mention those three pictures, just now, if her mother knew about her swollen knees, she would probably be furious and furious.

Yukino’s mother is a real conservative.

“It turns out that’s the case.” Yukino breathed a sigh of relief and believed her mother's words.

She also knows that the topics of married women are very ‘scary’.

During the Chinese New Year, those older sisters and aunts who casually talked about dirty jokes were classic examples.

‘You believe this, my foolish sister!’

Yono secretly pouted, feeling disdain in her heart.

‘My mother gave birth to us very early, she is only in her early forties now, she is still charming, mature and beautiful, like a wolf.’

‘She said it was sarcasm, was it sarcasm?’

‘Maybe it was an unconscious slip of the tongue?’

Yono was extremely wary of her mother's anger.

However, with Higashiya Masaki’s strength and skills, he could definitely tear apart her mother’s dignified and elegant appearance and make her reveal her charming and lost look, right?

Yono suddenly felt a strong throbbing in her heart.

She couldn’t help but want to stage a scene of motherly love and filial piety.

‘I really want to see what my mother looks like when she is grieving and enjoying herself, it must be very charming?’

As soon as this thought arose, Yono was startled by herself.

She quickly shook her head and threw it far away.

How can you be so disrespectful?

‘I’m really crazy… Even if I want to challenge my mother’s authority, I wouldn’t do it this way.’ Yono secretly warned herself not to think wildly.

But, once some thoughts emerge, they have already quietly taken root.

When people don't notice, they grow quietly.
