Today she was dressed in simple home clothes, but her graceful figure was still undeniable.
Hmm, her figure looks almost the same as Eri Kisaki's!
Her long hair was styled in an updo, giving her a refreshing and elegant look.
Her face was as beautiful as jade, without any makeup.
Although she wasn't wearing a kimono, she exuded the aura of a Yamato Nadeshiko—the kind that's gentle and sweet!
"Please have a seat. Lunch is almost ready. I'll go tell them to bring it up right away!"
Yuanshan Lingye felt a burning gaze sweeping over her, as if her clothes had been seen through, which made her feel shy. She hadn't been stared at by a man like this in a long time and couldn't bear it. She quickly made an excuse to leave!
"We're here to help too!"
Ran and Sonoko felt a little embarrassed sitting there, so they got up and followed Toyama Ryouyo to the kitchen.
So, only Xia Ye and He Ye remained in the large living room. Seeing the mischievous grin on Xia Shuai's face, He Ye shrank back and said coquettishly:
Why are you looking at me like that?
"Do you still want to—?"
"if not?"
Xia Ye stepped forward, leaned over and hugged He Ye in her arms. Looking down at her flushed face, she chuckled and said, "Your mother and Xiao Lan have all gone out, and you still didn't know how to run away. Now you're in my hands. Don't you know what I'm thinking?"
"Humph!"
He was no longer afraid when Natsume held him in her arms!
She gave a soft snort and rolled her eyes at Xia Ye.
"Of course I know what you're thinking, it's the same old stuff, if you've got the guts, then—uh!"
He sought benevolence and obtained it.
A kiss in the summer leaves, a love that lasts forever!
When Toyama Ryūha returned with Koran Sonoko, Natsume and Kazuha were already back in their previous spot, chatting casually.
With Xia Ye's acting skills.
The disguise was naturally flawless, however—
Kazuha, however, was exposed.
Yuanshan Lingye immediately noticed that her daughter's lips were slightly swollen and redder than before.
A strand of hair fell loose from her temples.
The T-shirt she was wearing and the low-waisted skirt she was wearing had some wrinkles!
What made her eyes twitch even more was...
A faint finger mark appeared on Kazuha's thigh!
These two guys managed to do so much in such a short time while I was out with Xiaolanzi?
The distant mountains and water chestnut leaves clicked their tongues in amazement.
Is this still my shy and reserved daughter?
He Ye's mother noticed.
Ran and Sonoko, of course, knew what was going on.
They don't even need to observe to know!
In this environment, it's impossible for Xia Ye, who craves excitement, not to do something strange; it's just his nature!
"Cough cough!"
Kazuha noticed that her mother and her friends were giving her strange looks.
They realized they had been exposed.
However, she didn't want to discuss what had just happened with anyone, so she immediately changed the subject:
"We can eat now? I'm starving!"
"Eat it!"
Toyama Ryūha kept her many questions to herself. She didn't want to expose her daughter's secret to her face, so she decided to deal with this matter slowly.
"Xiao Lan, Yuanzi, and Xia Ye—"
"You all eat more!"
"Look how well I cook!"
"it is good!"
...
Everyone enjoyed the meal.
As expected of a full-time housewife, Toyama Ryohana's cooking is even better than Ran's!
This drew praise from Xiaolan and Yuanzi.
Xiaolan also asked a few questions about cooking, and Yuanshan Lingye was happy to answer them. The two women, who both loved cooking and were good at it, chatted enthusiastically!
After chatting with Xiaolan for a few minutes, Yuanshan Lingye looked at Xiaye.
She had just noticed that Xia Ye not only had some ambiguous relationships with He Ye, but also with Xiao Lan and Yuan Zi!
Xiao Lan subconsciously set out chopsticks for him, and Yuanzi kept putting food on his plate.
These behaviors clearly indicate that they have become habits, and it's remarkable that such habits can be formed!
To say that their relationship was purely platonic—
Ghosts believe it!
Could it be that Xia Ye is really a playboy, and has so many women on his side?
its not right!
My daughter He Ye isn't that infatuated!
Yuanshan Lingye's beautiful eyes flashed...
His eyes sharpened—
No! I need to test the waters first!
Oh, right!
This guy was just staring at my body!
He even has his eye on his own "old lady"—this guy has quite the eclectic taste!
"Xia Ye, what do you think?"
"It's delicious!"
Xia Ye wiped her mouth and smiled faintly, "Madam's cooking skills are good enough to be a head chef in a kaiseki restaurant. I think it's delicious and suits my taste perfectly!"
"That's good!"
Yuanshan Lingye changed the subject and began a formal probing.
Ask Xia Ye about her job.
Ask about Xia Ye's family background.
Ask Xia Ye about her criteria for choosing a partner.
Anyway, whatever the mother-in-law asked when she first met her son-in-law, she asked!
Xia Ye was fine; he remained calm, answering every question with impeccable manners and speech.
however--
Kazuha's face grew increasingly red.
What is Mom doing?
Why ask so many private questions?
and many more!
Isn't it a bit too early to be talking about children?!
The way Mom is acting is like she's testing Xia Ye by actually trying to marry her off!
Finally, amidst Ran and Sonoko's teasing and snickering glances, Kazuha tapped the table, reluctantly reminding her mother:
"Mom, please stop asking!"
"Ah? Oh!"
The water chestnut leaves on the distant mountains seem to awaken from a dream.
She was a little surprised; she hadn't realized she'd asked so many questions!
but--
Through this conversation, she gained a little understanding of Xia Ye.
It has to be said that this man's charm is truly terrifying. He is witty, knowledgeable, and can keep up with any topic, making people feel very comfortable when chatting with him. Even I, an old aunt, have fallen for him, let alone He Ye, a naive young girl!
in fact--
If it weren't for Xia Ye's flirtatious behavior.
Toyama Ryūha was starting to consider agreeing to Kazuha's relationship with him, because compared to Heiji from the Shizuka family, who only knew how to deduce and solve cases, Natsume, although not much older, was mature in thought and spoke with composure. Compared to him, Heiji was still just a child!
Shaking her head, she gathered her thoughts, and a smile appeared in Yuanshan Lingye's beautiful eyes:
"Then I won't ask!"
"That's pretty much it~"
...
After lunch.
Two maids came to clear the dishes.
Unlike the young and beautiful maids of Suzuki Manor, the maids of Toyama House are all middle-aged women who actually do the work. They may not be as attractive, but they are very practical!
Of course, the young maids at Suzuki Manor are also quite "practical," but Natsume hasn't tried them out yet—
Try Yuko next time!
Click——!
A middle-aged maid was carrying several stacked plates and was about to leave when she tripped slightly on the edge of the carpet. Losing her balance, the plates flew out of her hands.
"Be careful~"
A gentle male voice, 3.6, rang out.
The plates that should have flown away landed steadily in his hands. He smiled slightly and said, "Let me take them over and wash the dishes while I'm at it. Ran and Sonoko even helped Madam with the cooking. I haven't done anything, I really feel ashamed."
"Xia Ye, are you targeting me?"
Kazuha crossed her arms. She and Natsume were the only two who hadn't gone to help, staying in the living room to "play games." Now that Natsume was saying this, wasn't she implying something about herself? But—
"Humph!"
"I don't care!"
"I don't want to work!"
"You damn girl!"
Yuanshan Lingye tapped her daughter's forehead with annoyance, "Aren't you afraid of being laughed at for being so lazy and gluttonous in front of your new friends?"
"Hum~"
Kazuha hummed twice more:
"I do not mind!"
In the current situation, everyone is a log holder, so there's no need to pretend in front of each other.
