Aino pursed her lips.
If it can enhance her feminine charm, she's willing to practice every day.
"Speaking of Xiaoyuan, I'm reminded of things from the past."
Miki rested her right cheek on her right hand, her expression one of regret, but the disappointment in her eyes transformed into deep affection.
Lan became curious. When she met Yuan, he was just over four years old.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have regarded Yuan as half her child.
'It's so good to like it.'
Miki recalled things from before she met the daimyo of the Land of Fire, who was also Genji's father.
She was trained to be a geisha from a young age, and was not accustomed to the mundane affairs of life, but only focused on the study of dance and music.
As a result, she knew nothing about many things.
Although that period was boring, she loved dancing and playing the zither, so she was still living a simple and happy life.
Then, during a performance, she caught the eye of a famous man and, without realizing it, became pregnant with Kiyoi Gen.
Pregnancy is a painful thing. During that time, she could not dance or play the zither. Even the maids around her were sent by the daimyo's principal wife.
There was no one to talk to, and the great name she had once hoped for never came; she was left to endure loneliness all by herself.
During that time, she really wanted to jump off the castle and leave this lonely world.
But he was born.
Miki's face was filled with happiness.
"Xiao Yuan was born that day."
"A feeling welled up inside me when I picked him up."
"I'll do anything as long as this child is happy!"
"He is my everything."
Lan, Kaguya, and Aino all sensed the resolute determination hidden in the last sentence.
Miki vaguely understood that if she, as a woman, gave birth to a son for the daimyo, something she didn't want to see might happen.
Fortunately, the daimyo's principal wife gave birth to a son earlier than her, who became the first in line to the daimyo's throne.
"Although it's a bit small and a bit ugly, I really love him."
"Sometimes I'll give him a quick kiss on the lips, sometimes I'll gently flick his groin."
and many more!
Lan was stunned. Was the second half of the sentence a bit off?
Someone working in the office suddenly felt a chill below, as if they had survived some kind of ordeal.
Miki sighed softly; that period was truly difficult.
It was her son who gave her the determination to live.
"Later, when Xiaoyuan was one year old, he could speak and read normally, and started reading and learning. At the same time, he was not very close to me anymore."
"The other children can't even speak a complete sentence yet."
For some reason, Lan sensed that Miki's tone was full of complaints.
However, to be able to read, write, and learn at such a young age, Xiao Yuan is indeed a child prodigy.
"Well, there's nothing more to say after that, Lan, you already know."
Ok?
What do I know?
Lan was completely confused; she was waiting to hear what Jingyuan had done before he was four years old!
However, Miki pouted as if she were throwing a tantrum.
"Humph!"
"While other people's children are talking about wanting to marry their mothers in the future, Xiaoyuan only knows how to read books."
"His rebellious phase started way too fast!"
Lan put a hand to her forehead; she roughly understood what had happened during that time.
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore, let's practice!"
"With Aino joining us today, let's review the newly choreographed dance first!"
Miki clapped her hands and then walked to the cabinet in the corner of the room.
At this moment, Lan and Kaguya began to untie the sashes of their yukatas, took off their clothes, and revealed their fair skin.
Ugh?
Aino was stunned. What was he going to do?
Not long after, Miki brought over some clothes.
"Well, we didn't prepare a dance costume for Aino, so Aino can wear your current clothes for now."
"Xiao Yuan's design of this outfit is quite form-fitting, and it looks great when dancing."
Then, Aino saw that Miki also started to take off her clothes and change into the dance costume that had just been taken out.
The style of this dance costume is very unusual, revealing her shoulders, waist, lower abdomen, and calves, as well as a pair of dance shoes that look very similar to her embroidered shoes.
"This outfit is very comfortable to wear, but it's not as cool as the dance costume that Xiaoyuan prepared for Fengsha."
"Aino, come on, try to imitate our movements first."
"We'll teach you slowly."
Chapter 130 Existing Progress and Planned Future
Hey! Don't put me in the fish tank!
"It's a three-tailed fish that's moved into the large fish tank in the room," one of the fish complained.
"Where would you like to stay?"
"The pond in the courtyard is not yet finished."
Wearing a cool silk gauze dress, Kiyoi Natsu looked impatient.
"I am a Tailed Beast! A Tailed Beast!"
"How can it stay in such a small fish tank?"
Three-tailed fish lay contentedly on the small island in the fish tank.
This guy is just complaining!
The other one is perfectly well-behaved!
"Anyway, even if you want to go out, I don't have time right now."
"I'll take you out for a stroll when we go grocery shopping!"
The three-tailed Isobu and the six-tailed Saiken moved in, and naturally, the four sisters, Haru, Shuu, and Toki, who were the family's little housekeepers, were responsible for taking care of them.
Although the slugs look like animals they don't like, the hornbills are very quiet, and they only need to be taken out for a walk occasionally.
As for Isobu, he was just a chatterbox, always complaining about this and that.
Kiyoi Natsu sighed.
No matter what, it's a task assigned by my older brother, so I have to complete it properly.
Thinking of this, Kiyoi Natsu placed a bowl of prepared dried fish next to Isobu.
"Hmm~ Not bad, I'm very satisfied."
Kiyoi Natsu's eyes were filled with contempt.
"Okay, stop bothering me while I'm working."
"Really!"
After saying that, Kiyoshi Natsu ran barefoot up to the attic, where she still needed to clean the rooms.
Fortunately, their brother created a cleaning technique that made housework much easier for them.
After Kiyoi Natsu left, Mitsuki picked up a small dried fish and ate it bite by bite.
"Rhinoceros Hound, what do you think?"
Inside the artificial mountain cave in the fish tank, the rhinoceros dog watched Isobu actually eating, utterly speechless.
Do you even need to ask me?
"It's only been a day, let's observe it slowly."
"Too."
Isobu shook his head, and the smallest dried fish fell into his wide-open mouth.
Although tailed beasts don't need to eat, they can still enjoy delicious food.
Meanwhile, Kiyoshi Gen was writing a business plan in his office.
It is now the end of October in the 36th year of Konoha, which is autumn.
Since the opening of Cinnamon City in July, the outer city has become much more lively.
As he had predicted, this place became the economic center of the Fire Kingdom, and numerous merchant guilds, regardless of size, would register with him and cooperate with their City of First Sun.
It boasts a high city wall with excellent public security, giving residents peace of mind, and countless novelties.
This made Churi City a highly sought-after destination.
A large amount of capital flowed into this area, and the outer city rapidly prospered and developed.
Even ordinary people who come here alone to make a living can find a job that is enough to support themselves, as long as they are diligent and hardworking.
Perhaps having heard of the prosperity here, some nobles from the Land of Fire came here, attempting to forcibly enter the inner city.
