Chapter 497 What happened last night?
Kanae handed the plate she had taken from Ikuko to Kanao, and after watching her leave, she couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from her forehead.
"Whoo~"
Kanae breathed a sigh of relief, finally managing to calm Kanao down.
"Isn't it a bit too early to relax now?" Yuko suddenly appeared from behind her. "You should be thinking about how you're going to deal with Kanao after you get married."
Kanae's face twitched violently twice, and she gritted her teeth in anger: "Yuko~"
Kanae rarely shows any displeasure to anyone other than Shinobu Kocho.
Firstly, apart from Shinobu Kocho, everyone else, whether it's Aoi Kanzaki, Kanao, or the three little ones, is very obedient.
Yuko's reason was simply that the two were still somewhat unfamiliar with each other. It's like you can call your best friend "dog son" without any burden, but you can't call a friend you're not that familiar with that.
Of course, the main reason is that Yuko once saved her life.
But gradually, Kanae found herself unable to tolerate it anymore.
She's practically a carbon copy of Shinobu, with a terrible personality.
If she hadn't known Yu Zi's identity, she would have suspected that her parents had given birth to an older sister who had been lost.
It was nearly noon, and the others gradually got up. Those who couldn't get up were forcibly pulled out of bed by those who had gotten up first.
Senjuro finished washing up while yawning.
"Hey kid, didn't you sleep well last night?" Uzui Tengen greeted him.
Senjuro smiled helplessly: "It's alright."
He actually fell asleep this morning, just like everyone else.
Unlike others, he couldn't sleep last night because of the noise.
"Mr. Tengen, please wash your face." Hinatsuru took a towel and wiped Tengen's cheeks.
This scene made Zenitsu's headache worse, as he had been feeling unwell since waking up last night.
“Nezuko-chan~ I want one too~” He pointed at Uzui Tengen, then at his own face, and made a silly face at Nezuko.
Everyone broke out in a cold sweat and, intentionally or unintentionally, moved a few steps away from this person.
I always feel that standing with this guy is an insult to them.
Nezuko didn't think too much about it. She smiled and took a towel to wipe Zenitsu's cheeks.
Zenitsu closed his eyes and made a lecherous face.
Obanai Iguro hesitated for a moment, then followed suit and picked up a towel to wipe the dazed Mitsuri Kanroji's face twice.
"Hehe, Mr. Iguro~"
Obanai Iguro: "..."
Clearly, Kanroji Mitsuri went too far last night and is still a bit out of her mind.
Uzui Tengen asked curiously, "Speaking of which, what exactly were you guys doing last night?"
"I could still hear noises outside in the middle of the night."
As soon as he said that, everyone instinctively turned to look at him.
Uzui Tengen was taken aback: "W-what's wrong?"
Zenitsu couldn't help but retort, "Really? How did you even fall asleep last night?"
"Speaking of which, I just realized that a few people were missing last night."
With his two wives in his arms, Yuzui Tengen raised an eyebrow at him: "What do you think?"
While others follow the custom of sleeping separately for men and women, he is different.
He is married, and last night he shared a room with his three wives.
Zenitsu coughed up blood, his finger trembling as he pointed at him: "You're ruthless..."
Yuzui Tengen sneered. He had finally found a way to deal with this fool.
It turns out that if he doesn't care, then the one who gets hurt is this fool.
Suma asked in confusion, "So what happened last night? I have no recollection of it at all?"
Mu Xu immediately retorted, "You slept like a pig, how could you possibly remember anything?"
"What?!" Suma exclaimed angrily. "Then tell me what happened last night!"
Mu Xu stammered, "Who, who knows? I didn't go out."
"See! You still don't know, you're the one who sleeps like a pig."
Hinatsuru, being the eldest sister, quickly stepped forward to mediate: "Well, well, calm down."
Kyojuro patted Uzui Tengen on the shoulder with a regretful look: "What a pity, I missed what happened last night."
Uzui Tengen was completely bewildered. So... what exactly happened?
"What exactly happened?" Uzui Tengen nudged Himejima Gyomei's elbow.
Beimingyu Xingming turned his head and glanced at him, his eyes filled with regret.
Uzui Tengen couldn't help but widen his eyes.
No? What happened last night?
How did they manage to turn Beiming Island into this state?
Beimingyu Xingming clasped his hands together and said, "Nothing happened."
The kids were already asleep last night, but this group of people woke them up with a pillow fight, and then they were full of energy again and went crazy all night.
Why does he look like that?
Uzui Tengen: "..."
"Everyone, lunch is ready!" Shinobu Kocho and Kanao walked over with the food, calling out with smiles.
Kyojuro glanced at it, and his eyes suddenly lit up: "Oh, I just woke up and there's delicious sushi to eat."
Kanroji Mitsuri was practically drooling, but it was only thanks to Iguro Obanai's quick thinking that her already less-than-ideal image was salvaged.
As the saying goes, the greatest enjoyment is having food served to you and clothes put on your plate.
They had just woken up when someone brought them food, including such a delicious sushi platter. Everyone couldn't have been happier.
"Okay, I feel so full..." Mitsuri Kanroji lay on the floor, her hands covering her belly, which was finally starting to rise and fall, her face contorted in pain.
Yu Zi's eyes twitched. "You ate so much and your stomach is only a little bit bloated? Where did you come from, monster?"
Kanroji Mitsuri tugged at Obanai Iguro's sleeve: "Mr. Iguro, let's not go back, let's stay here."
Before Obanai Iguro could speak, Shinobu Kocho said with a dark face, "With you here, I estimate it won't be long before you bankrupt our family."
Kanroji Mitsuri looked aggrieved: "Eh? Is Shinobu really that heartless?"
Kanae couldn't bear to watch her younger sister's misdeeds and said with a smile, "It's okay, Mitsuri can stay as long as she wants."
Kanroji Mitsuri got up and pounced on Kanae, rubbing her face against her like a kitten.
"Kanae is definitely the best!"
As she spoke, she also gave Shinobu Kocho a couple of cold snorts.
Shinobu rolled her eyes, too lazy to bother with this idiot.
"Did you make this sushi?" Uzui Tengen looked at Yuko with a hint of curiosity.
Yu Zi glanced at him coldly: "Spit it out."
Uzui Tengen was dumbfounded: "What did I say that you want me to vomit it up?"
Yuko asked expressionlessly, "What are you trying to say?"
Uzui Tengen smirked, "I have to say this sushi is delicious. You really are a good woman."
Yu Zi waved her hand: "You've got some taste. Get lost."
Uzui Tengen was choked and speechless.
Yuko doesn't have any major conflicts with the Demon Slayer Corps members, but if you're asking whether they've ever argued or exchanged a few sarcastic remarks, then yes, they have.
Sanemi Shinazugawa, Obanai Iguro, and Tengen Uzui all had arguments with Ikuko.
However, for now, everyone has been completely subdued by her, and even when she criticizes them, they dare not refute her.
……
The arrival of everyone made Butterfly's house lively for a long time, and even the clinic temporarily closed, just to spend more time with everyone.
The summer festival celebrations lasted for several days, during which the city was bustling with activity. There were parades almost every day, and the various food and entertainment activities at the fair kept everyone exhausted.
The group reluctantly left only after the summer festival ended.
"Oh right! I almost forgot!" Just as Tanjiro's family was about to leave, Tanjiro suddenly slapped his forehead, remembering something.
"Miss Yuko, your books were left at my house before, and I brought them with me." Tanjiro said, opening his luggage and rummaging through it.
Yu Zi smiled and said, "So it really was left at your house."
Nezuko looked apologetic: "I'm sorry, I forgot to put it back."
Yu Zi waved her hand: "It's okay, we don't need it anymore anyway, it's not important."
Noticing that Tanjiro had been searching for a while, Zenitsu crouched down and asked, "What's wrong? Didn't you find it?"
Tanjiro scratched his head and nodded slightly: "I remember putting it in by hand."
He remembered it clearly; it shouldn't have been missing.
Tanjiro almost turned his luggage over.
Nezuko's eyes widened: "No? I remember putting it in too."
Shinobu Kocho chuckled and teased, "You guys didn't get your things stolen on the train like some idiot did, did you?"
Tanjiro broke out in a cold sweat: "I don't think so."
After all, they didn't lose any money or anything.
Inosuke picked his pig nose: "Um... sorry..."
Everyone turned to look.
"I took it out."
"?"
Why did you take it out?
"I just... wanted to take it out, and then I took it out."
"???"
Tanjiro was quite shocked by this answer.
Yuko stepped in to smooth things over, waving her hand with a smile: "It's alright, it's alright, then the book is for Tanjiro and the others."
"It contains records of things from the past. I wrote them down because I was afraid I wouldn't remember them after a long time."
"It's no longer needed."
Tanjiro hesitated for a moment before nodding, "Alright then."
He actually wanted to ask what those incomprehensible symbols and characters meant.
"Come visit again sometime." Before parting, Yuko patted Tanjiro on the shoulder.
Tanjiro looked deeply moved: "Yes, I will."
"Ms. Yuko, thank you so much..."
“No, that’s not what I meant. I meant…you know what I mean.” Yu Zi, with her back to the crowd, subtly gestured behind her.
Tanjiro looked behind Ikuko with a bit of confusion, then realized what was happening and coughed twice with a slightly flushed face.
"Yes, I will!"
Yu Zi nodded with a satisfied look: "You're a quick learner!"
After Tanjiro's family left, Shinobu Kocho watched them go and sighed, "I wonder when we'll meet again."
Yu Zi retorted, "You said the same thing a month ago."
However, she also knew that what Shinobu Kocho said was true.
Like most students, they will keep in touch with their roommates for a while after leaving school, but as time goes by, very few of them can maintain this contact.
Not to mention that people in this era don't have such convenient ways to communicate.
The reason we were able to get everyone together so easily is because the Demon Slayer Corps had just disbanded, and everyone was still dealing with family matters immediately after leaving.
Just like Uzui Tengen and the others, the message almost didn't reach them.
Shinobu Kocho sighed softly, "After those idiots left, I don't know who to bully anymore."
Kanae rolled her eyes; she was finding it increasingly difficult to control her younger sister.
Upon hearing this, the Shinazugawa brothers, who had accompanied them to see everyone off, instinctively felt a chill run down their spines and glanced around blankly.
Find.
It seems that there's no one else they can bully besides the two of them.
Xuanmi: Fortunately, with my older brother there, we should be fine.
Sanemi: Why the hell?
……
After everyone left the Butterfly family home, the house returned to its usual tranquility.
The clinic spread by word of mouth and gradually gained recognition, attracting more and more patients.
The Shinazugawa brothers haven't found suitable jobs yet, or rather, they don't really need to work to earn money; the wealth left by Ubuyashiki is enough for them to squander.
Or perhaps it was simply because he was pursuing Kanae, Shinazugawa Sanemi was busy around the clinic all day long, his temper had become much milder than before, and even his appearance had become much more amiable.
Yuko had asked Genmi if he wanted her to help improve the scars on his face. Her intention was to make Genmi look less scary, so that he would be more popular with girls.
Unexpectedly, when she asked, Xuanmi shook his head at lightning speed, looking extremely terrified.
No?
Is that scarred face beautiful?
Yuko couldn't help but ask Shinazugawa Sanemi how he felt about having such a youthful and handsome face.
What he received was a long silence from Sanemi Shinazugawa.
Clearly, he should be satisfied.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have tacitly agreed.
Unfortunately, Genmi could not empathize with his brother.
Time seemed to have been fast-forwarded, slipping away unnoticed. Suddenly, it dawned on us that summer had long passed, and everyone had donned thick winter clothes.
Yuko has been living here for half a year.
She felt very at ease living there for the past six months, as if she had the same feeling as when she returned to her hometown and lived with Yoriichi back then, but there was also a subtle difference.
Yuko thought it might be because back then, only Yoriichi was with her, but now she has Shinobu Kocho and everyone else with her.
Well, if I had to say, I'd say it's all about patience.
The experience Shinobu brought her was completely different from that of familial love. Although it was also a kind of benevolent emotion, Ikuko received a different kind of love from Shinobu than from Yoriichi.
"You should wear new clothes for the New Year." Kanae smiled as she dressed the three little ones in their New Year's outfits.
"We're going to the shrine to pray later, so everyone should dress nicely." Kanae was wearing a pink kimono. "That way, the gods will notice us."
Kimonos are often indispensable for important occasions, and they are truly beautiful to wear, especially on good-looking people.
