Chapter 292 The sudden visit of the head of the Tianhai family
If there is a chance, Sakakihara Raku would like to take the initiative to speak.
But faced with this situation, facing his "quasi-grandfather", Sakakihara Raku really didn't know what he could use to defend himself at this time.
The potato chips that Yuki fed in his mouth left a lingering fragrance, and the fragrance was even stimulating his taste buds. This made him look at Soichiro Amami standing at the door, and he couldn't help but chew a bite, making the same noise as when the potato chips were bitten.
The "click" sound.
Very crisp.
This voice reached Soichiro Amkai's ears.
The already ugly face turned dark instantly.
Sakakihara Raku: "."
After Raku Sakakibara looked outside the living room, Amami Yuki, who was sitting barefoot next to Raku Sakakibara, holding a bag of potato chips, also spotted his father.
Tianhai Zhixue looked at her father calmly, her expressionless expression seemed to be wondering why her father and Uncle Ying appeared here.
Amkai Soichiro could no longer watch anymore, because in the scene he just saw, his little daughter was serving a man like a maid.
Feeding her, pinching her shoulders, having her beat her legs, and pouring water for washing her feet, it was like living a more carefree and happy life than I did.
And such a person is still his grandson-in-law.
My youngest daughter’s nephew.
Amkai Soichiro was not prepared to speak at all.
Ying Guizhong, Uncle Ying understands the master's temper very well and doesn't speak.
Tianhai Zhixue just quietly watched her father and Uncle Ying, whom she had been in contact with since childhood.
Time passed like this little by little in the endless silence, very smoothly and gently, but for Sakakibara Raku, every second was like entering the eighteenth level of hell, which made ordinary people
, scalp numbness.
There is no doubt that this is also a Shura field.
As for Sakakibara Raku, he thinks that the most important thing in his life at this stage is the Shura Field.
"Why is grandpa here?"
Amkai Soichiro did not reply, keeping his hands naturally lowered. The black haori kimono cuffs just reached his wrists.
"By the way, didn't Qi Mingyue and Jiu Liuli go back to live at Tianhai's house these days?" Sakakibara smiled naturally, not at all embarrassed by what happened just now, "I have almost settled the matter with uncle.
, when I have free time, I also said that I would take my snow grandson to visit them tomorrow, and also pay a visit to grandpa."
"." Amkai Soichiro still didn't reply.
"Zhixue has been talking about you, grandpa, lately. When I chatted with her, she often talked about some of the gifts you bought for her, grandpa."
"." Soichiro Amakai still had the expression of watching silently.
The old man's silence is far scarier than his words.
Sakakibara even worried that he was thinking about how to use asphalt to sink himself into Tokyo Bay.
No, I really can’t. I have to say something so that I can save my own life.
"Speaking of which, Zhixue still remembers a question I asked Zhixue when she first came here. I asked her what the image of her father was in her mind. Zhixue always answered me that her father is a very gentle person.
, I have never spoken in an angry manner, and I always take good care of everyone."
When Raku Sakakibara said this, Soichiro Amkai couldn't help but glance at Amami no Yuki. After looking away, his expression obviously became much calmer.
Uncle Ying, who was behind, had already begun to praise the young master's answer in his heart. He knew that the master doted on Miss Xue, and understood that Miss Zhixue's answer could calm the master's anger.
If it were an ordinary person, wouldn't he reply with a few hesitant words, be too close to me, and then be scolded by the master so much that he can't even lift his head?
"You're so glib," Soichiro Tenkai took a breath. After calming down and stretching his tense shoulders, he opened his eyes and said, "So what's going on with you?"
Sakakibara was happy to see that the old man was starting to take the initiative to talk to him, and he felt relieved.
"It's just a joke on He Zhixue."
"A joke?" Amkai Soichiro snorted, "I've never seen my aunt feed her with water and rub her shoulders and back."
"Why are you here, dad?" Tianhai Zhixue spoke, as if she had just realized who the person in front of her was.
Sakakibara Raku is about to vomit blood, Miss Emotional Snow, you have been in a daze just now! You don’t know who is coming!
If you had spoken earlier, I wouldn’t have gone to the 18th floor of hell to peel off my skin and bones!
When Amkai Soichiro saw his youngest daughter speaking to him, his tone completely changed back to his normal tone: "I've just finished my work recently, and I haven't had time to see you. I came here just to see how you are doing." p>
"Happiness is good."
"How's it going? Didn't he ask you to bring tea and water just now?"
"Because I did something wrong."
"What's wrong?"
"The injury on Le's face was caused when I was frying fried ice cream."
Amkai Soichiro understood it and understood the origin of the matter.
It turns out that it was my daughter who owed the boy in front of me first.
No wonder you dare to call your aunt.
"Master, don't take it too seriously," Uncle Sakura interjected from behind Souichiro Amkai, "Miss Zhixue and the young master are the same age, and because of their contact during this period, the relationship between the two will never be divorced.
Too far."
Soichiro Tenkai also knows this.
When he decided to send Zhixue here, he had already imagined that Zhixue's identity might create certain obstacles in the relationship between several juniors.
It's a good thing that Qijiuling and Xiaole don't regard their little daughter as an elder.
As the elder brother, there is a considerable generation gap between Maodian and Tianhai Zhixue because of their age. The two do not look like brothers and sisters at all.
"Master"
Sakura said a few words to Soichiro Amkai, and then said hello to Raku Sakakibara and Yuki Amami, and then left the living room first, as if he was going to pick up something.
"Come here, let's sit down and have a good chat." Soichiro Amkai told Sakakibara Raku, "Zhiyuki will watch TV for a while first. I have something to tell your nephew."
"It's fun." Tianhai Zhixue replied to her father and winked.
Mr. Tianhai nodded and affirmed: "Well, he's not a nephew, he's Le. Okay, Xiao Le, come here."
Amkai Soichiro turned around and sat on the wooden bench in the living room
Sakakibara then stood up, poured a cup of tea for his grandfather, himself and Zhiyuki, and then sat across from the old man.
"How is your relationship with Qi Mingyue going lately?"
"Basically nothing has changed." Raku Sakakihara understood that the old man was trying to find out whether he and Qiyue had reached "that" point.
"Hmm."
After hearing this, Soichiro Amakai withdrew his gaze, and slowly turned his gaze to the tea in front of him. He reached out to open the tea lid and rubbed the edge, and said in a thick voice:
"Recently, that girl has been making a lot of moves at home. Not only is she taking the initiative to participate in some things, she is also using her identity and your relationship with her to take the initiative to establish contact with family members. Of course, more often than not, she takes the initiative to find her.
There are more people.”
The old man revealed some information here.
First, Qi Mingyue has been expanding her influence within the family during this period and has not been idle.
The second is that she actively or indirectly revealed the potential relationship between Sakakihara Raku and her to some people.
The third is that after the big guys, or people within the group, knew about her status, they all took the initiative to curry favor with her.
People who know the senior leaders of the Tianhai family, or those who are close to the senior leaders of the Tianhai family, are more or less speculating on the old man's opinions and have some rumors about the identity of the next generation of family heads.
July's voice in the family has increased!
This is a good thing, but it will definitely have an impact on Jiuliuli.
Amkai Soichiro continued: "Shigenori asked you to go to his office because his original intention was for you to actively learn. The important thing is to understand and master relevant knowledge about economics, business, management, etc., and to master the latest technologies and policies of the family business.
This allows you to abide by family rules and make in-depth and weighty decisions and suggestions that are of substantial help to the family business. From what I have heard so far from Maodian, you seem to be very much appreciated by him." p>
My uncle helped me to say good things to my grandfather.
——Sakakibara understands this.
It was also because he had completely predicted the stock market before that shocked him.
Amkai Soichiro didn't seem to have much interest in this topic. He just mentioned it: "I'm just here today to talk to you about family matters. But this is not the most important purpose of my trip. I'm just here.
Just to see how Zhixue is doing here."
"Grandpa, don't worry, I'm taking good care of her."
"You usually do all the cooking?"
"Yes."
"I know the time schedules of Shigenori and Miwa. Do you also do things like washing clothes?"
"Yes."
"You are also helping them with their homework."
"Yes."
"Then I also take care of school affairs and keep exercising every day. Recently we even formed a band together."
"Grandpa, you are so busy and you know so much," Sakakihara said happily.
"These are what Shigenori told me," Amkai Soichiro paused for a second or two, "Although he doesn't usually come into contact with you, from this point of view, he has always been paying attention to your lives."
Amkai Soichiro was filled with emotion when he said this.
Regarding cooking and washing clothes, it would be me more than ten years ago.
I will definitely scold the kid in front of me. If you want to take the overall situation into consideration, you shouldn't limit things to such trivial matters.
Food? Clothes?
Just hire people to do those things. As the leader and heir of the Tianhai family, you must be busy dealing with important matters.
The entire group works for tens of thousands of people, has trillions of wealth, and is responsible for the gears that run the entire society. These things are far more important than household chores.
He has always thought this way, and he did this to Maodian.
However, Maodian used actions to express his resistance to himself. Growing up without feeling the respect of his father since he was a child, he even did not hesitate to confront himself as his first heir.
If you want a Tianhai family, you must abandon the trivial matters at home.
If you want to take care of your family, you must abandon family affairs.
Soichiro Amkai has always thought so.
"Xiao Le, do you know what I admire most about you?"
The old man's voice was very solemn and majestic, and to Sakakibara it sounded like that of an elder. He couldn't help but look at his grandfather's white hair and the wrinkles on his face: "Uncle and grandpa, what are you talking about, talent?" p>
"No." Amkai Soichiro didn't intend to beat around the bush with him, "In fact, in my opinion, what I appreciate most about you is that you have a heart that is dedicated to the people around you. I learned from Madenori, Jiuliuri, and Qimingyue
He knows your daily life arrangements during this period of time, and arranges your time to the fullest from morning to night. While you are still meeting the requirements of outsiders, you are also taking the initiative to take care of the people at home. This is as a
The most rare thing for a person."
"." The old man's words of affirmation made Sakakibara stunned.
Are you really needed by everyone?
"You probably already understand what happened between me and Maodian, and also the confrontation between me and Maodian in the early years. He is not satisfied with my control over him. The fundamental reason is that I gave him nothing.
Under the circumstances, he was forced to inherit the family, and he felt very dissatisfied - I didn't quite understand it at the time, but after Zhixue was born"
Amkai Soichiro looked at his little daughter who looked extremely immature compared to him on the sofa.
He turned around and continued:
"After Zhixue was born, my understanding of this matter became clearer and clearer. Zhixue is an advanced and premature infant. Her current personality is a bit like a child. This is her natural flaw, which has also caused her
It's easy to forget things. When her mother passed away, even though I was sad about it, I only remembered it for a few days and then devoted all my energy to the family business. She didn't want to go to school. I agreed, but she didn't want to understand.
Family, because of her life experience, I agreed. I have been indifferent to her for ten years.
"The one who teaches her is the teacher, and the servant who takes care of her is just completing the tasks I gave her on a routine basis."
Raku Sakakibara doesn't want to comment, but for Zhiyuki, he has been sitting alone in a room for more than ten years. All he can do is be in a daze.
No wonder Zhixue likes to be in a daze so much.
"I experienced some things later. I grew older and my energy was no longer what it used to be. On Zhixue's tenth birthday, it was also the tenth anniversary of my wife's death. In front of her tombstone, I saw Zhixue greeting me.
When my wife presented flowers, I suddenly remembered that I still have a daughter like Zhixue."
Soichiro Amkai put down his teacup in a leisurely manner.
"She looks a lot like her mother. And with my current ability, I can't give her normal care and a normal life. She always needs a home and people who can truly treat her as a family, not
Treat her as the young lady of the Tianhai family and a tool for marriage. This is why I sent her to you."
Sakakihara Raku saw another side of the old man.
The head of the Tianhai family, who appears to be the most powerful to the outside world, is not as serious and unapproachable as he appears to the outside world.
The old man is still an old man, a man who also has family and family ties.
Maybe he has strong external skills and behaves beyond doubt, but in fact, he has always felt guilty about Zhixue.
The father's love is hidden deeply, but due to the face, it is difficult to express his emotions to his young daughter, who is equivalent to a granddaughter
This must be the dilemma of the old man’s feelings for Tianhai Zhixue.
"Why did grandpa say this to me?"
"Why do you say this? It's just the emotion of a man who is nearly 70 years old. I have never said this to Madenori or Guizhong. As for why I say it to you, I think you can probably understand my mood and situation, and as my
As the heir, I think you should also have some conversations with me about things other than the family. You have to be clear, you have to understand that the Tianhai family has always followed the word 'family' to get to where it is today."
Amkai Soichiro's voice is old-fashioned, but there is a little bit of self-deprecation in his words:
"I didn't fully understand what my father said to me until a few years ago, and I was really stupid."
"By the way, I'll tell you something that even Maodian doesn't know. When I was young, I did the same thing as him."
The conversation with the old man is over.
Soichiro Amkai asked some more questions about Yuki Amami and learned about her current situation.
The youngest daughter talks more than before, which is a fact that can be seen with his naked eyes.
He has a new understanding of his decision to put Zhixue here. At least he did not make a mistake.
Amkai Soichiro then visited the rooms where several people lived, and also learned that Sakakibara gave up his room and lived in the utility room by himself.
"Why don't you change to a bigger house?"
"Moving is too troublesome. It's not necessary for me alone."
"Hmm."
During the last visit to Raku Sakakibara's room, when Soichiro Amkai looked at his bookshelf, he paused calmly for a second.
"Do you have anything to eat here?"
"Grandpa, do you want to stay here for dinner?"
"Well, as soon as possible, I heard that your craftsmanship is very good."
When he heard that the old man wanted to stay for dinner, Rakuya Sakakihara immediately responded that he could make a meal.
After Soichiro Amkai intentionally dismissed Sakakibara Raku, he took the initiative to walk into his room and picked up a diary on his bookshelf.
"Sure enough."
When Amkai Soichiro saw this diary given to Yuki by his wife, he felt nostalgic and at the same time wondered why this thing appeared in Sakakibara Raku's room.
He let go of the book. At this time, a few paper cranes that were folded completely out of place fell out of the book.
"Thousand Paper Cranes?"
Amkai Soichiro bent down to pick it up. He looked at the Paper Crane and then at the contents of the diary, his brows furrowed.
He thought in silence for a moment, and took the initiative to think of the way Amami Nozuki looked at Sakakibara Raku when he first saw her.
Soichiro Amkai closed the diary silently. He felt that there were some things that perhaps should be verified.
