Three hundred and fortieth chapters neat and tidy family
The Star Awards came to an end, and Chihara Rinto gained a lot. He won the Best Script Award, the Best Work Award, and the Personal Achievement Award. He also received fifteen "Energy Potions" - which are of no use for the time being and can only be saved.
.
After the Starry Appreciation is over, the next step is the New Year.
This was the first New Year after he bought a house and started a family. Hakuba Munamasa and Mitsue were very understanding. Before Chihara Rinto called, they offered to let them spend the New Year in Tokyo instead of going to Kyoto. By the way, Mitsue also talked with him.
He talked about private equity funds.
Mitsuae's work efficiency is quite good. The private equity fund application has been approved by the Ministry of Finance. The first batch of 8.5 billion yen (mainly from the Hakuba family and Mitsuae's natal family) has been transferred to the investment company's account. Mitsuae is preparing to continue to invest during the Chinese New Year.
Anyway, she just had to celebrate the New Year and tried to get it done before mid-January next year. However, she was not too polite to Chihara Rin and asked for the right to supervise the funds, so she had the right to stop it at any time.
Qianhara Rinto thought about it for a while and did not refuse. After all, this was not a simple investment. It was all money from relatives and friends of the Hakuba family. It was understandable that Mizue was not worried.
The matter was probably settled like this. The smooth fundraising made Chihara Rin more reassured. After two days of careful study with Shintaro Yasuda, he and his family began to prepare New Year's goods and make cold snacks. Unfortunately, he was killed by Ning within two hours.
Zi and Michiko were kicked aside - he really wanted to help, and he was also a person with a strong sense of family responsibility, but both his girlfriend and the disciple thought he was not doing a good job, which was helpless.
But since it was a holiday, he really had nothing to do, so he just copied his hands and directed from behind, trying to have a sense of presence at home: stew it a little bit, so that it is fragrant, and add more salt, it will taste better after being salted.
After just a few days of busy work, it was December 31st, the last day of 1997.
"Teacher Qianhara, I'm sorry to bother you." Shengzi put a few paper bags on the coffee table and sat there very shyly: "This is a blessing made by my grandma, Mitarashi dumplings and glutinous rice noodles. If you like it, I will come back to you
Bring some here."
She was embarrassed to come at first. After all, she was drunk and wanted to confess her feelings. She didn't know how she ended up becoming a disciple. When she sobered up, the more she thought about it, the more embarrassed she became. She was not sure whether Chihara Rinto realized her true feelings.
I didn't dare to come to see him, even if I had to come during the Chinese New Year, I struggled for several days. After being repaired by Aiko and Kirisa, I mustered up the courage to come.
Qianhara Rinto had almost forgotten what happened that day. He was very happy to see the very honest Son. He joked: "Why do you bring so many things to Master's house? It's too foreign. You don't have to do this in the future. By the way,
Why do you still call me Teacher Qianyuan? You are my disciple now."
The Holy Son's face turned red, and he remembered the confusing things that night again. He held it in for a while and then softly called out: "Master."
Qianyuan Rinto was happy and said with a smile: "Be good."
It’s not easy to recruit three disciples in three years, and it’s not easy for such an honest person!
Shengzi's face turned even redder and he muttered not knowing what to say. Qianhara Rinto knew that she was really honest and was embarrassed to tease her again. He asked seriously: "I haven't seen you come to the TV station in the past two or three months.
,Are you under a lot of academic pressure?"
Shengzi went to a pheasant private school. His classmates mostly focused on having fun, and the teachers were not very good. There was no academic pressure at all. At this moment, he showed a look of shame and murmured: "There is some academic pressure, but mainly it is
Afraid of giving Qian...Afraid of causing trouble to you, Master."
"It's no trouble." Chihara Rinto waved his hand and said cheerfully: "Master is sitting on the bench now. I just have time. If you are not under heavy academic pressure, you can go to the TV station to listen to lectures after the New Year."
"Listen to the class?"
"Yes, I have organized an intensive study class at the TV station. If you have time, come over. You should be able to learn more than you did at school." Chihara Rinto smiled and gave her a general explanation, and he really hoped that she could come.
——The eldest disciple and the second disciple are not very reliable. He feels that these three disciples are the only ones who can inherit his mantle.
The Holy Son was really looking forward to it. It was a good thing to be able to learn from his idol. Seeing that he was really starting to enjoy the treatment of his direct disciple, his ears were a little red with excitement. He immediately lowered his head and said: "Yes, Master, I will definitely go on time."
"Good." Qianhara Rinto became more and more satisfied as he looked at the Holy Son. Anyway, he saw that she was better than the second disciple, both older and younger, but in his heart he was comparing the Holy Son with Hitomi Konoe. Hitomi Konoe came and looked at the table.
The paper ball on the top said happily: "Is it a snack?"
Shengzi stood up quickly and said: "It's a snack, sister A Tong, my grandma made it."
"Let me try." Hitomi Konoe didn't really think of herself as an outsider, and didn't know how to write the word "please". She opened the paper bag, picked up a bunch of Mitarai dumplings, ate one, and continued to read: "There is no sauce."
Juice? This needs to be dipped in sweet soy sauce to taste delicious. Can you let Sister Ningzi mix it a little?"
Then she turned to the kitchen and shouted: "Sister Ningzi, I want to eat dumplings. Please mix some sweet soy sauce and add more honey."
Qianhara Rinto was speechless as he looked on. You bastard doesn't know how to respect your master first. You stuff it into your mouth every day, and you still call your master's wife around at every turn. You're really an evil deed.
He stood up and slapped Konoe Hitomi on the back of the head, and said angrily: "Don't you have any hands? You have to adjust yourself! You are also a senior sister now, and you have to set an example for the Holy Son!"
"Yes, Master." Hitomi Konoe was beaten so hard that the dumplings almost spat out again. She quickly covered her head and went to the kitchen to get plates and bowls, put the snacks in place, pour sauce on those that needed to be poured on, and sprinkle with soybean powder on those that needed.
Bean Fen finally understood. He gave Qianhara Rinto a bunch first and said respectfully: "Master, you use it first."
This is more or less the same. As expected, only a strict master can produce a good disciple, and the disciple has to fight. If he doesn't fight, he will not be effective!
Chihara Rinto was satisfied and tasted a bunch of Mitarai dumplings. He didn't like them very much - they were just grilled mochi balls on a stick. They were too sweet and a bit sticky to the teeth.
Hitomi Konoe liked it, she ate everything except fish, and she ate it very deliciously, "It's better than the one in my hometown." Then she turned around and asked Seiko: "Seiko, do you want to eat here together tonight?
reunion dinner?"
Qianyuan Rinto also looked over and asked with concern: "You live with your grandma, right? Is it just the two of you celebrating the New Year together? If you don't mind, you can come here together and let Atong drive to pick up your grandma.
That’s fine.”
The Holy Son quickly said: "No, Master, we are celebrating the New Year at my aunt's house..."
Konoe Hitomi waved her hand and said grandly: "Aunt, how can I have a master? Holy son, you can have the reunion dinner here!"
Qianhara Rinto also smiled and said: "If you can stay, stay. It's a rare opportunity to get together."
Shengzi was a little moved. She was shy by nature and was very restrained at her aunt's house. It would be nice to celebrate the New Year with her idol, no, it would be nice to spend the New Year with her master, but she was still a little undecided. She was afraid of being a lightbulb, so he hesitated and asked: "Ah
Is Sister Hitomi here to celebrate the New Year too?"
Hitomi Konoe nodded repeatedly: "Yes, I can't go home, so I am celebrating the New Year at Master's place, but I will stay until one o'clock in the evening, and you can sleep in my room. It doesn't really matter, my senior sister is here, and there are no outsiders.
"
She did not forget her good friend, Banquan Quanshui was going to attend the Red and White Song Festival, and she would pick her up and take her home, and then the two of them would watch the New Year together, while Michiko simply lived here, and tomorrow she and Ningzi would go to the temple to pray.
——The new kimono Ningzi has been prepared for her. It was sent from Kyoto on a special trip, but it was only from Chihara Rinto's pocket.
The Holy Son was finally relieved and said shyly: "Then I will ask my grandma and aunt later. If they agree, I will celebrate the New Year with Master, Senior Sister and Sister Ningzi."
Hitomi Konoe slapped the Holy Son on the back hard, which made the Holy Son feel excited and said happily: "That's right, it's fun when there are many people."
Qianhara Rinto was also in a good mood and said with a smile: "Let me call your grandma and aunt!"
…………
It is not unusual in Japan for a disciple to celebrate the New Year at his master's house. Chihara Rinto quickly informed the Holy Son's aunt, who was surprised, but without much hesitation, he agreed immediately - even the Holy Son's aunt didn't know.
The Holy Son is a disciple of Rinto Chihara. He was surprised when he heard this. He asked the Son to answer the phone and asked carefully before he found out. He was very happy for his niece.
Qianhara Rinto is also a social celebrity, with a decent style and an excellent reputation. The saint's aunt knows how much benefit having such a master can bring to the saint. Even if she doesn't consider it from a utilitarian point of view, she can always learn more.
OK.
She was very supportive and turned around to inform her sister who was overseas.
Things went very well. Shengzi stayed for the New Year and quickly went to help in the kitchen. She didn't feel awkward meeting Ningzi. She never thought about arguing with Ningzi. At first, she just wanted to talk about her concerns and leave some good memories. Unexpectedly,
In the blink of an eye, he was a generation removed from Chihara Rinto.
Soon the New Year's Eve dinner was ready, and Qianhara Rinto's family sat neatly at the dinner table. They were really a family. In terms of career "legacy", such as connections in the industry, disciples sometimes inherited it more than others.
Biological children still have an advantage, but in the eyes of outsiders, Michiko and other disciples are not much different from Chihara Rinto's biological daughters, which is completely different from the teacher-student relationship in school.
This New Year's Eve dinner was not the make-shift New Year's Eve. On behalf of the whole family, Ning Zi knelt down and toasted to Chihara Rinto in a serious manner. Holding the cup in her delicate hands, she smiled tenderly and thanked him for protecting the family from the wind and rain and making the whole family happy.
Having no worries about food and clothing, living a peaceful and joyful life, Qianyuan Rinto also took it seriously. He looked at his narrow-eyed girlfriend, then at the unlucky first disciple, the younger and younger second disciple, and the honest and shy third disciple, and sincerely expressed his blessings.
After a while.
I hope my girlfriend will be happy every day and continue to look beautiful (it would be nice if her eyes were bigger. After the mother-in-law left, my girlfriend didn’t want to spend more than an hour putting on makeup, which is really regrettable);
I hope that the disciples will be able to open their minds early, find their life goals, and live a meaningful life (it has been more than a year, and the baby fat is almost gone);
I hope that the second disciple will continue to work hard and return home in fine clothes as soon as possible (if nothing happens, just call my girlfriend);
I hope that the third disciple’s wish will come true and he can become an excellent screenwriter in the future, and even become a creative screenwriter (this wish is truly golden).
After listening to Chihara Rinto's words, Ningzi smiled gently, Michiko was a little touched, Konoe Hitomi nodded vigorously, Seiko was particularly excited, the atmosphere was quite warm, and then everyone drank a full drink together - only Chihara Rinto
The wine that Hitomi Konoe drank.
Then they ate New Year's soba noodles. Everyone talked and laughed together. Occasionally, they watched and listened to red and white songs. Konoe Hitomi poured herself a drink and soon became excited. She held up the cup and shouted: "Next year."
Better, everyone wants to be better!”
Ningzi smiled and persuaded her to drink less, Michiko smiled sweetly and teased her, Seiko was picking up food for her, and Qianhara Rinto watched them having fun, smiling slightly and saying nothing.
1997 is over, and 1998 is about to begin, but it’s hard to say whether it can be better.
In the past, it could be regarded as the coming of winter, then the Southeast Asian financial crisis was a blizzard, and the following Asian financial crisis was the real winter - 1998 was the worst year for Japan's economy and the most devastating in the lost two decades.
Twelve months of despair.
I don't know what will happen this year.
But there are great opportunities in big crises. I have been preparing with all my heart for so long. I hope there will be a good result! After all, whether we will eat chaff or eat meat in the next ten years, we can only wait and see next year!
