Compared with the options provided by the Shinomiya family, Yushan Kazuto is far superior in every aspect. What's more, Shinomiya Kaguya also had some sporadic affection for Yushan Kazuto.
After weighing the two options, choosing Yushanheren doesn't seem to be a difficult choice.
"I'm sorry, father, this is my choice." Shinomiya Kaguya raised her head, looked directly at Shinomiya Yan'an, and held Yushan Kazuto's hand tighter.
Shinomiya Yan'an looked at Shinomiya Kaguya, then at Yushan Kazuto. His gray beard almost stood up, and there was some hatred in his eyes.
Sigong Huangguang looked at Sigong Yan'an and became even more flustered. He knew very well that the current situation was entirely caused by him. If Sigong Yan'an conducted a serious investigation, he would be able to discover the truth that he had cut out.
Sigong Huangguang's body was trembling slightly.
Chapter 503: Mourn before departure
“Are there any good restaurants in Kyoto?”
Walking out of Baiyunju, Yushan Heren asked.
This time, Yushan Heren not only lost face for Shigong Yan'an in person, but also left a huge mess for the Shigong family, which was considered to have completely offended the Shigong family. He didn't dare to stay in the Shigong family for lunch.
"There is a main store called Kamibayashi Shunsho. I heard it has a history of 450 years. It's pretty good." Shinomiya Kaguya said with her head down.
"Four hundred and fifty years of history, that's so exaggerated." Yushan Kazuto blinked, "Isn't that even longer than the history of your Shinomiya family?"
Shinomiya Kaguya glanced at Hayama Kazuto, but strictly speaking, what Hayama Kazuto said was not wrong.
"Your Yushan family doesn't have a very long history, right?" said Kaguya Shinomiya.
Yushan Kazuto smiled and said, "Maybe."
If we don't count the history before the crossing, the Yushan family has only been in Japan for seven generations, including the first generation ancestor who crossed the ocean first and the second generation ancestor who followed him.
However, if we include the history before crossing the ocean, it is no exaggeration to say that the entire history of Japan is not even as long as the history of the Hayama family.
Walking all the way to the gate, Shinomiya Kaguya suddenly found it difficult to move forward.
"What's wrong, Kaguya?" Yushan Kazuto asked.
"Kazuto, can you go to Sizhu Hall with me again?" Shinomiya Kaguya suddenly asked.
"Going to Sizhutang? What's the matter?" Yushan Heren blinked.
"I want to go... say goodbye to my mother."
If I walk out of the door of the Shinomiya family today and want to step back in, I don’t know how many years will have passed. In fact, Shinomiya Kaguya will never have the chance to return to the Shinomiya family.
She had already realized it, but before that, she wanted to say goodbye to Sigong Mingyezhu.
Although she had never seen Shinomiya Nayatake since Shinomiya Kaguya could remember, she was Shinomiya Nayatake's daughter after all, and inherited Shinomiya Nayatake's slightly frail body and delicate appearance.
It is natural to want to say goodbye to Sigong Mingyezhu before leaving.
Yushan Heren nodded, turned around and walked towards Sizhu Hall.
……
"Is your mother buried in the Shigong residence in the southern district?" Yushan Heren asked as they approached Sizhu Hall.
"No." Kaguya Shinomiya shook her head.
"However, behind each Sizhu Hall, there is a small bamboo forest with a shrine built inside to commemorate the mother."
Yushan Kazuto blinked. After hearing what Shinomiya Kaguya said, Shinomiya Yanan seemed quite affectionate.
After arriving at Sizhu Hall, there was indeed a small bamboo forest, covering an area of only more than 30 square meters. In the middle of the bamboo forest was a small shrine with a photo of Sigong Mingyezhu enshrined in the middle.
Although Yushan Kazuto knew that Shinomiya Kaguya and Shinomiya Nayotake looked very similar, after seeing the photo, he realized that Shinomiya Kaguya looked exactly like Shinomiya Nayotake.
There is a small offering stand in front of the shrine, on which are placed some fresh fruits and a bouquet of flowers. Judging from their freshness, they must have been put there just this morning.
Shinomiya Kaguya stood in front of the shrine and said, "Kazuto, I want to stay here with my mother for a while, just a few minutes. Can you wait for me outside the bamboo forest?"
"Yeah." Yushan Kazuto didn't want to ruin the atmosphere, so he walked out of the bamboo forest. Shinomiya Kaguya needed to be alone in her current situation.
Watching Yushan Kazuto walk out of the bamboo forest, Shinomiya Kaguya took a step forward and leaned against the shrine.
……
"Are you ready?" asked Yushan Kazuto as he watched Shinomiya Kaguya walk out of the bamboo forest.
"Yeah." Kaguya Shinomiya responded softly, with a little redness in the corners of her eyes.
Kaguya Shinomiya originally had red eyes. If it weren't for Yushan Kazuto's careful observation, he would not have noticed that Kaguya Shinomiya was abnormal.
"Why are you still crying? Are you reluctant to leave?" Yushan Heren blinked and said.
Shinomiya Kaguya and Shinomiya Nayatake have never met each other, so logically speaking, there shouldn't be any deep mother-daughter love between them.
"No, no, I just spoke out of my feelings." Shinomiya Kaguya shook her head and said.
She would not tell Yushan Kazuto that she had found a mechanism on the shrine. When she pressed the mechanism, the photo of Shigong Mingyezhu would automatically flip over and replace the photo of Shigong Mingyezhu and Shigong Yan'an.
In the photo, Shinomiya Nayotake looked very weak, but was still forcing a smile, while Shinomiya Yanan was holding a child - it was Shinomiya Kaguya.
That photo should have been taken when Shinomiya Kaguya was just born. Not long after that, Shinomiya Nayatake passed away. It is very likely that the photo was the last photo of Shinomiya Nayatake and Shinomiya Yanan.
Although she knew about Shinomiya Yan'an's feelings for Shinomiya Mingyezhu, Shinomiya Kaguya had no idea that his feelings would be so deep.
"Have you calmed down? You can go now." Yushan Heren said.
Shinomiya Kaguya finally reacted and realized that she seemed a little absent-minded just now.
"Let's go." Shinomiya Kaguya nodded, walked to Yushan Kazuto, and naturally took Yushan Kazuto's hand.
Yushan Kazuto glanced at Shinomiya Kaguya. Logically, after the showdown and breakup with Shinomiya Yan'an, the two should not have to continue acting, but Shinomiya Kaguya seemed to want to continue acting.
[Forget it, we haven’t left the Shinomiya family yet! ]
Yushan Heren shrugged and didn't think about it anymore.
……
Back in front of Sizhu Hall, Yushan and others looked at the three big characters of Sizhu Hall and couldn't help but
He could tell from his eyebrows that the three words "Sizhutang" were definitely written by Sigong Yan'an, and he wrote them by hand.
However, the three words "Ming Yan Tang" are reproduced from the original characters. In comparison, there always feels something awkward.
"Kaguya, do you know who wrote the words 'Mingyan Hall'?" Yushan Kazuto suddenly asked.
"Mingyan Hall?" Shinomiya Kaguya thought of the plaque of Mingyan Hall and fell into deep thought.
Shinomiya Kaguya had some impression of Yushan Kazuto's question, as if someone had mentioned it to her, but she couldn't remember it for a moment.
"Can't remember?" Yushan Kazuto saw Shinomiya Kaguya's predicament.
"Well, someone told me, but it seemed like it was when I was very young." said Kaguya Shinomiya.
"If you can't remember, don't think about it. I was just asking casually." Yushan Heren said.
"Yeah." Shinomiya Kaguya responded, but she was still thinking in her heart.
……
After walking out of the gate of the Shinomiya family, Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but look back. To be honest, the area of the Shinomiya family's housing site may be much smaller than that of the Yushan family, but the degree of grandeur is far beyond that of the Yushan family!
[When I have time, I will build a water cube gym at home. ]
Kazuto Yushan smiled and led Kaguya Shinomiya to the front of the car. A car just stopped behind Kazuto Yushan's car.
"Mr. Yushan, where are you going?" Hayasaka Ai got out of the car and looked at the two of them in surprise.
"Mr. Yushan!" Kaguya Shinomiya seemed to have grasped the key point.
"Kazuto, I remember!"
Chapter 504: Origin of the Title
"The three words 'Mingyan Tang' were written by my father?" Sitting in Shanglin Chunsong Restaurant, Yushan Heren couldn't stop thinking about it.
Hayama Yayoi, Shinomiya Nayatake, and Shinomiya Huangguang were classmates in college. At that time, Shinomiya Nayatake had not yet changed his surname to Shinomiya.
Yushan Kazuto was not very clear about the situation at that time, but based on some clues, it can be distinguished that Shigong Huangguang liked Shigong Mingyezhu at that time, and Shigong Mingyezhu had a secret crush on Yushan Yayoi.
However, Yayoi Hayama was not interested in Nayotake Shinomiya. The only woman he had ever fallen in love with in his life was Kazuto Hayama's mother.
At that time, Shinomiya Nayotake had another best friend who also liked Hayama Yayoi, but she was much bolder than Shinomiya Nayotake and confessed to Hayama Yayoi directly.
The response she got was naturally a rejection. After being rejected by Yushan Kazuto, she turned to attack Shinomiya Huangguang and her current identity is Shinomiya Kaguya's sister-in-law.
In Shinomiya Kaguya's memory, there was only one elder sister-in-law in the family who occasionally took care of her, and that was also because of their friendship back then.
But in the end, the fact that Shigong Mingyezhu married Shigong Yan'an was something that Yushan Kazuto couldn't understand no matter how hard he tried.
The nomination for the "Ming Yan Hall" made the events of that year even more confusing.
Many possibilities flashed through Yushan Kazuto's mind, but he ultimately rejected them one by one.
Could it be that Hayama Yayoi was congratulating Shinomiya Gan'an and Shinomiya Nayotake? Impossible!
Although the calligraphy was vigorous and powerful, the regret between the lines could not be hidden.
But if it is said that Hayama Yayoi discovered: "There was once a true love in front of me, but I did not cherish it. I regretted it after I lost it. This is the most painful thing in the world."
That's absolutely impossible.
Yayoi Hayama had a classmate and friend relationship with Shinomiya Nayotake, but absolutely no romantic relationship between them.
But if so, how do we explain the regret between the lines? Could it be that after Shinomiya Yanan and Shinomiya Mingyezhu got married, their married life was not happy, so they complained to Hayama Yayoi, and then Hayama Yayoi wrote this calligraphy?
Shinomiya Nayotake would not do this, and Hayama Yayoi would not listen to her heart. In a sense, Hayama Yayoi is still quite decisive about her feelings.
"Kaguya, according to what you said, Meigan Hall was built in the second year after your mother and Shinomiya Yan'an got together, right?" asked Yushan Kazuto.
"Yeah." Shinomiya Kaguya nodded, but after thinking carefully, she added: "But the inscription seems to have been added later."
"Was it added later?" Yushan Heren felt as if he had grasped some information.
"Well, I once saw a plaque of Mingyan Hall in the storage room. The handwriting was completely different. It should have been written by my father himself." Shinomiya Kaguya said slowly.
If Yushan and others saw the plaque, they would find that the handwriting on the plaque was different from the usual sinister style of Shigong Yan'an, and instead had a somewhat tender feeling.
"So... when was the plaque with my father's inscription hung up?" asked Yushan Heren.
"I don't know." Shinomiya Kaguya shook her head. "Anyway, it was before I could remember."
"I understand." Yushan Heren nodded. Although the most important information had not been analyzed, the situation was now much clearer.
It would make sense if the three words "Ming Yan Tang" were written after Sigong Ming Yezhu's death.
However, this raises a question. Sizhu Hall was built after the death of Shinomiya Mingyado. Why didn't Hayama Yayoi write an inscription for Sizhu Hall, but instead wrote a new inscription for Mingyan Hall?
Yushan Heren shook his head and didn't think about it any further. He always felt that the hidden information here seemed a bit subtle.
"By the way, Kazuto, how did you make all the light bulbs in the Mingyan Hall explode in an instant?"
When she was at Shinomiya's house, Shinomiya Kaguya didn't feel anything unusual, but now, Shinomiya Kaguya has become much more sober and realized how shocking what Yushan Kazuto did was.
If Yushan and others had not shown their skills, I might not be able to leave the Shinomiya family today.
Shinomiya Kaguya was still secretly rejoicing.
"Well...it's not very convenient." Yushan Kazuto blinked.
I can't tell Kaguya Shinomiya that I loaded some of Hui-chan's code into my mobile phone in advance, and when I went through the security check at the entrance, I hacked into the Shinomiya family's intranet through radio, opened the interface, and let Hui-chan in the cloud take over the entire Shinomiya house's network and power system.
It's a bit scary to say it out loud, so Yushan and Ren thought it would be better not to say it.
"Meow~"
A big cat walked up to their table and called out tenderly, interrupting their conversation.
Kaguya Shinomiya looked at the big white cat and tactfully did not ask any further questions.
……
Baiyunju.
The house was littered with broken porcelain pieces, and Sigong Yan'an smashed a whole set of precious tea sets.
Sigong Huangguang stood aside and didn't dare to step forward. He knew that Sigong Yan'an was extremely angry at this moment, and he didn't dare to stroke the tiger's whiskers.
"It's the Hayama family again, it's the Hayama family again! Nadeshiko is like this, Nayatake is like this, and Kaguya is still like this!" Shinomiya Yan'an slammed his fist on the desk, but unfortunately it was a little powerless. He is almost seventy years old and no longer has the strength he had when he was young.
Even with the tea set, he had to smash one cup four or five times before it broke, and he was out of breath from all the smashing.
