Chapter 542 The Hanamaru Family
According to the request of editor Morisaki, Kai Uesugi, who originally wanted to be lazy and fish for fish, had to take advantage of the time to catch up on the progress of the manuscript, otherwise he would be finished if he couldn't produce the manuscript when it was time to hand in the manuscript.
However, Japanese light novels are relatively loose, and one volume is handed in every quarter, that is, every four months.
For Kaoru Uesugi, this was completely unbearable.
He didn't know why there was such ample time, and there was still an author who wanted to delay the update.
The ink of the pen was flying quickly on the white paper, and Uesugi’s thoughts were racing. He was going to write a short outline of the plot that he had thought about before talking about it.
The phone rang suddenly, and the tip of the pen rested on the paper.
Kai Uesugi put down his heavy pen, took off his glasses, and took out his cell phone from his trouser pocket.
It was a strange call.
Uesugi Kai: "May I ask who you are?"
A female voice came through the phone: "Is it Xiao Kai?"
Hearing this tone, it sounded like an elder, but because of the distorted voice on the phone, Kai Uesugi couldn't tell who it was.
"you are?"
"I'm Hanabi's aunt, Hanamaru Hazuki, we met before."
"It turned out to be my aunt," Uesugi Kai knew in his heart, and glanced at Hanamaru Yuki who was being taught by Akaerina how to tie an apron on a maid uniform, "Is it because of Yuuki?"
"Yes. She should be living at your house now, right?"
"Yes." Kaoru Uesugi nodded.
There was a distinct, relieved voice on the phone.
"That girl really wants to piss me off. Why don't you learn to behave like her brother. Alas, she said that kind of thing yesterday! If her father wasn't at home, I really—"
"Auntie, please don't be angry," Uesugi Kai said hastily, turning his body in the opposite direction, facing the coffee counter behind him, "What happened to Yuki is not true."
"I know."
"You know?"
"Well, no matter how naughty she is, she will not do such a thing. If she said that she found a boyfriend who has been dating for a year, I believe that she was irritated by her aggressive method at the time. I saw her take After seeing the photo, I couldn't hold back and threw her out."
"Auntie, with all due respect, according to the situation at the time, shouldn't she be locked at home? After all, if she ran out, something would inevitably happen."
There was silence on the other end of the phone: "I was angry at the time, and didn't think too much about it. Later, I asked Xinyue to follow her sister, and asked him to help her sister find a hotel to stay for one night first."
Hanamaru Nobuki.
Uesugi Kai searched for the memories of the past in his mind, he still remembered that he used to call himself Brother Kai, a very shy and polite boy.
Hanamaru Hazuki: "You should be at school now, right? She's at your house? I'm a little worried that she's running around again."
"No," Kai Uesugi responded, "she wants to live in my house recently, but she seems a little embarrassed to eat and drink here for free, so I helped her find a part-time job."
"Work?"
"Ah, don't worry, auntie, she is a coffee apprentice in a coffee shop where I work, and learns to make coffee from me."
"So that's the case. If this is the case, I can rest assured. If I have something to do, I won't think about dating all day long."
"If my aunt needs it, I'll send you the address of the coffee shop later."
"Then I'm going to trouble you, Xiaoqi. You and Huahuo need to watch her more. She's still a child and doesn't understand anything. She told me about it yesterday. I'm really a little afraid that she will do that suddenly."
Kai Uesugi: "It's okay, auntie, this is what we should do."
Hanamaru Hazuki on the other side of the phone seemed to be smiling: "I heard my second brother say that you are very reliable, Kai. I didn't believe it at first, but now I believe half of it."
"what?"
"Your promise is very reassuring, so let's leave it to you these days. Let her get busy and don't let her have the idea of falling in love. Please trouble you."
"nothing."
"Then I'll hang up first, this number is your usual number, right?"
"correct."
Speaking of which, how did my aunt know her phone number?
"Are you thinking, how do I know your phone number?"
"Yes." Kaoru Uesugi replied.
"Beforehand, I didn't ask my second brother for it. You can guess the specific method. If it's okay, I'll hang up first."
"Ok."
The aunt on the other end hung up the phone first, Uesugi Kai glanced at the phone screen, saved the strange number as a contact, and then put the phone back in his pocket.
As soon as she was about to hold the pen, Hanamaru Yuki, who was wearing a maid uniform, came to the front desk. She held her skirt, poked her head left and right, and kept looking.
"Brother-in-law, do you think I look good?"
How should I put it, Hanamaru's entire family is full of handsome men and beautiful women, and Yuki and Hanabi-chan look very similar, such a beautiful girl. To be honest, she looks good in anything she wears.
"What do you ask this for?"
"I have to confirm my charm. Otherwise, how can I find a boyfriend in two days?"
Uesugi Kai was a little speechless, and asked, "First of all, how do you plan to find a boyfriend?"
"will~"
Hanamaru Yuki smiled and took out her mobile phone, shaking it in front of Kai Uesugi, "There is a software called rent~borrow~boy~friend~~"
To count on such an unreliable thing.
Speaking of "Jiang~", why is this mouth habit so similar to Hanabi's "Jiang~"?
Is it really a family?
"Brother-in-law is so strange."
"What's strange?"
"Why do you want to use two identities at the same time in the coffee shop with your sister?" Hanamaru Yuki put her elbows on the front desk, and showed her unique smile at Uesugi. Together, it will feel particularly exciting, right?"
boom.
The coffee shop leaflet rolled up by Kai Uesugi landed directly on the girl's head.
"Bullshit."
"Damn, brother-in-law, no one dares to hit me on the head, you are the first." Hanamaru Yuki took two steps back holding her head, "Also, who was the one who called you just now, is it my mother? "
Got it right again?
Your family's intuition is so powerful?
"Brother-in-law doesn't tell me, I know it all. My mother likes to control me and control me in everything."
"That's caring about you."
"That's not it! She just wants to control me, and then use me to fulfill her dream that she didn't fulfill before."
Uesugi Kai thought to himself, this is completely a typical rebellious mentality.
Yuxi-chan, oh Yuxi-chan, your brother-in-law thought the same way when he was 10 years old in his last life.
In the face of children in the rebellious period, it is actually the most useful way to cut off the source of income.
As long as you are hungry, what is rebellious or not, let's talk when you are full.
Now because of her cute looks, Yuxi has been hired by the store manager Liu Mu as an apprentice barista. With financial resources, it is really difficult to treat her now.
Fortunately, Yuxi just escaped her mind and didn't do anything excessive. She is just a naughty young girl at the moment.
If you are tired from playing, you should calm down, right?
Uesugi Kai sighed in his heart, he would help take care of his mother-in-law asking him to stop Yuki from falling in love, but it is impossible to stop it directly, some things are better to be blocked.
If things are done too extreme, it is easy to backfire.
Yuuki disobeyed her mother's orders and escaped, probably because of this reason.
--------
At noon, it's time to get off work.
Hanamaru Yuki jumped up almost immediately, "Okay! Get off work!"
Manager Liumu couldn't help smiling when he saw her: "Are you looking forward to getting off work so much?"
"Hmph ~ Of course, after get off work means free time." Hanamaru Yuki nodded confidently with her hands on her hips.
"Haha, then you guys rest, I'll go back and see my children."
"Huh? Isn't Manager Liu Mu staying in the shop for lunch?"
"No, I have something to do, you eat."
Hanamaru Yuki looked curiously at the back of Manager Yanagi leaving, until she completely disappeared from sight, then turned to look at Kai Uesugi, who was packing up the coffee utensils.
"Brother-in-law, what are you having for lunch?"
"What do you want to eat."
"I want to eat the steak made by my sister!" Hanamaru Yuki smiled brightly.
"Then go to the balcony and ask her to do it for you."
"Great!"
Seeing Hanamaru Yuki's energetic back, Uesugi Kai hopes that he and Hanabi's daughter can grow up so happily in the future. The husband and wife are watching behind her, watching her grow up slowly.
Although, Uesugi Kai is not at all prepared for the title of father now.
But when you get married, you have to face that day sooner or later.
We ate steak at noon, Hanamaru Hanabi and Aka Erina worked hard for a long time, and made a portion for everyone.
It's only noon now, except for store manager Liu Mu, there are only four people in the store now.
Kai Uesugi was eating the rice in the bowl, and suddenly found a small piece of vegetable on his rice bowl.
It was Hanamaru Hanabi who caught it for herself.
This very simple scene was seen by Hanamaru Yuki, she said with a smile: "Sister and brother-in-law are so loving."
Aka Erina didn't know what to say: "What?"
"Then sister will give you a piece too."
"Thank you sister!"
Today's Hanamaru Yuki is quite happy, I don't know if it's because she broke free from her mother's shackles.
After dinner, she also took the initiative to help Hanamaru Hanabi wash the dishes, which was obviously not her job as a coffee apprentice.
Aka Erina said at the front desk to Uesugi Kai: "I feel like Yuuki is very sunny."
"Only for today." Uesugi Kai shook his head, Yuki-chan is cute, and her dress is also very energetic, but her thinking is out of her mind, she doesn't seem like a shy girl.
"what?"
"If you don't understand, just pretend I didn't say it."
In the afternoon, Kobashi Lihai and Totsuka Katsura came to the coffee shop and met Hanamaru Yuki, and Totsuka Katsura was a little embarrassed to face a glamorous girl like Yuki.
Hey, you are a guy who likes step sisters, are you so shameless?
Speaking of which, I don't know what's going on between him and Lihai Xiaoqiao. It seems that there has been no progress.
Time comes to afternoon.
After starting to work, Hanamaru Yuki also put away his troubles and began to learn how to make coffee from Uesugi Kai.
Since she is a pure novice, Uesugi Kai thought for a while and said: "Well, you should have a little foundation, right?"
"Yeah!" Hanamaru Yuki nodded her head, "I used to learn from Ms. Anna and the others in England."
"Then, I'll give you the equipment. You should try it yourself first and make a result. Then I will correct any problems you have during the period, and help you see how to learn well in the future."
"Ok~"
Uesugi Kai stepped aside and let Hanamaru Yuki operate by himself.
First of all, she actually knew the smell of beans in the first step, which shows that she really has some foundation.
"There are so many here, which machine do you use?" But soon, she found it difficult to recognize what tool she was going to use to make coffee.
Uesugi Kai first asked, "What do you want to do?"
"Cappuccino." Hanamaru Yuki was a little unsure whether he had chosen the right coffee beans, and looked at him with questioning eyes.
Uesugi Kai nodded, making sure she got it right: "Since it's a cappuccino, let's use the traditional hand pouring method."
"Hand punching method?" Hanamaru Yuki glanced at all the machines on the front desk, pointed to the biggest one and said, "Use this one?"
Xiaoqiao Lihai, who was watching from the side, covered his face and smiled and said, "It's wrong, Yuki-chan, that is an automatic coffee machine, use it when you are busy."
"Oh, I see." Hanamaru Yuki nodded quickly as if she understood.
Kai Uesugi explained: "Hand pouring is definitely brewing coffee in your hands. First of all, you need to find the tools you want to use."
"What are there?" Hanamaru Yuki asked curiously.
"Hot water, colander, thermos, glass jug, and filter paper."
Hanamaru Yuki hurriedly found what Uesugi Kaoru said in front of the bar, "That's all?"
"Well, but it's better for you to use the filter cup with the short mouth, and you can't control the long mouth."
Hanamaru Yuki was quite obedient: "Okay."
Afterwards, Hanamaru Yuki followed Uesugi Kai's instructions and carried out the steps step by step. During this period, she failed many times in the details, but she still made a cup of coffee.
"Master, please." Hanamaru Yuki smiled and handed the cappuccino to Kai Uesugi.
"What master?" Uesugi Kai reached out and brought up the coffee and the cup holder.
"Hey, it's because my brother-in-law teaches seriously, very much like a master."
Uesugi Kai lightly agreed, without saying anything else, he picked up the coffee, put it in his mouth, and took a sip.
It was nothing at first, but halfway through the drink——
"Pfft!" Uesugi Kai sprayed directly at Hanamaru Yuki.
Fortunately, Hanamaru Yuki reacted quickly, was light and fast, and dodged by turning sideways.
"It's so dangerous, so dangerous~"
She wasn't sprayed, but Katsura Totsuka, who just came over, was miserable. After being sprayed with a cappuccino, his expression immediately collapsed, and a pair of dead fish covered with coffee liquid looked at Kai Sugi :
"Hey, Uesugi, that's too much."
"Sorry, sorry." Uesugi Kai apologized twice, and looked at the cappuccino in his hand, which tasted very weird.
Good guy, this is too salty!
He had never had salty coffee in his life.
Uesugi Kai looked at Hanamaru Yuki who looked surprised: "What did you add?"
"White sugar."
