Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 838

"Okay, no problem. Is there anything that needs to be taken care of during this period?"

Kousaka Kyosuke, pretending to have finished his thorough inspection, looked at Su Yi, who was standing properly.

Dressed in plain, simple clothes, with a slender figure and beautiful face, her overall demeanor was dignified and elegant, making her a very standard noblewoman.

It's hard for Kyosuke Kosaka not to feel excessive desire for her.

"Reporting to Lord Kyosuke, the main problem is that we are short-handed for agricultural work, and there is a high probability that we will be unable to keep up with the farm work in the future..."

"Let's recruit slowly. With so many people fleeing to Kyoto from various countries every day, we're bound to find some better ones."

"I understand. I will ask everyone to try their best to hold on for now."

"Don't overwork yourself in this area. There's still plenty of time for planting. I'll find a group of people before then. You know I'm always traveling around."

"You're too modest..."

"No, I do have a lot of free time," Kousaka Kyosuke said to Su Yi.

Since his fathers-in-law came, he's really been slacking off.

They used to be so attentive, but that's because everyone in the government office had their own agendas and was difficult to deal with.

Now, Kyosuke Kosaka has killed a group of people during the Orochi shrine's rampage, but the remaining group is very obedient and won't cause any trouble, which makes him feel much more at ease.

Even if it's reckless, it's not a big deal.

Kyoto has suffered too many disasters; it's really quite normal to die in an accident.

Kyosuke Kosaka doesn't need to resort to underhanded tactics; simply sending them out to do the work is perfectly fine.

"..."

Seeing that Kyosuke Kosaka's gaze had returned to her, Su Yi felt somewhat uneasy.

A moment later, Kousaka Kyosuke realized that he had been looking at Su Yi while he was thinking.

This is bad; it's caused a misunderstanding.

Let's continue with the misunderstanding then.

Waved.

Knowing what she was about to encounter, Su Yi blushed and stepped forward.

Kyosuke Kousaka continued with his daily routine.

"Suyi, let's have children later. After all, there have been a lot of things going on these past few years. Once I have a child, my attention will be diverted."

"...Lord Kyosuke, you don't need to tell me this. You must have your own plans."

Su Yi said in a flustered manner, looking quite flustered.

Kyosuke Kosaka found it amusing to see Su Yi acting like a little girl, but he knew he shouldn't indulge in such wicked humor too often, so he offered a few words of comfort.

Even though you know I have plans, it's still better to be clear about some things so you don't overthink it.

As Kousaka Kyosuke spoke, his gaze fell upon the delicate little ear in plain clothes, watching the subtle changes in her beautiful face.

"Lord Kyosuke, thank you..."

"You're welcome, it's my pleasure."

Kyosuke Kosaka chatted enthusiastically with Su Yi.

Honestly.

He still prefers older sister types.

Xiangzi, Fujishikibu, and Sue are the most typical examples; they are all very tolerant of him.

Other partners are either younger sisters or childhood sweethearts, which is more in line with traditional scenarios.

Susou, who often clung to Kousaka Kyosuke, just like Kagura.

Kyosuke Kousaka probably just treated her as a playmate.

The kind where you eat, drink, and play together.

Like her older sister Suyi, Kousaka Kyosuke likes to tell them secrets that he's too embarrassed to say.

Suddenly, I realized how reckless I had been.

He's had so many women in less than a year.

In comparison, Kyosuke Kousaka can only be compared to those more powerful sea kings, making him seem quite innocent.

When his weight covered Su Yi's body, he stopped thinking about so many things.

Well……

In response to Kousaka Kyosuke's actions, Su Yi squinted her eyes and leaned her body back as far as possible.

The sound was crisp and clear, like the sound of bamboo joints.

Despite feeling extremely shy, Su Yi managed to maintain a very calm demeanor.

Every time she is with her husband, she still sweetly recalls many of their past and present love stories.

The monotonous life of the previous twenty-odd years turned into a colorful and vibrant life the moment she got married, and she was very happy.

Feeling a little embarrassed to show her true self, Su Yi could only try her best to match Kousaka Kyosuke's style.

Sometimes, Su Yi was very envious of her younger sister.

My younger sister can laugh and joke just like Kyosuke Kousaka.

She herself would never have done such a thing, but fortunately her husband doesn't mind and treats her the same way he treats his sister.

Honestly, shouldn't we pamper her even more?

That's what Su Yi thinks.

I do not know how long it has been.

A bright, crystalline thread created the distance.

The two had essentially finished their conversation.

Kyosuke Kousaka was in a good mood as Su Yi dressed him in plain clothes.

I slacked off again today.

“Suyi, you should talk to Zhenfei occasionally. She’s a very nice person, but she’s just too easily embarrassed.”

"Yes, I understand, Kyosuke-sama."

Su Yi quickly understood.

"Lord Kyosuke wants to hold a banquet, but he's worried about Princess Maki's side..."

This is a very simple matter.

After all, making her husband happy is the most important thing, so she just needs to give him subtle hints.

Invite your younger sister along too, so the atmosphere won't be awkward.

Su Yi was also aware that she was prone to awkward silences when she spoke, but having her younger sister by her side made things much better.

Ultimately, my younger sister always manages to get along well with newcomers...

In the past few days, Su Yi also heard that her younger sister had spoken several words with that stranger who was so afraid to even leave the house.

"Sit with me a little longer."

Kousaka Kyosuke, who understood instantly, felt even more comfortable and decided to spend more time with his wife.

Without further ado, he took her hand and started talking about what had happened during this time.

Shrines, monster markets, the underworld... everything that could be said was mentioned.

It's so good to have a loving wife.

I'll go back later to spend time with Kyoko and Fujishikibu. Perfect!

The perspective shifts to other locations within the Water Department Manor—

Su Chang didn't pay much attention to Kousaka Kyosuke today.

She knows it.

Whenever your husband and sister are alone discussing matters, don't go over to them, otherwise your sister will get very angry.

Although Su Chang didn't try it, she just didn't dare to.

The eldest sister is like a mother.

Su Chang was still afraid of her older sister, Su Yi, from the bottom of her heart.

At this moment, she is with Kikuto Hiroi and several friends and acquaintances she mentioned.

How's this drum?

Su Chang, who had already placed the drum on the ground, asked.

Hiroi Kikuri lightly tapped to test the sound, her eyes lighting up: "Great! A wonderful drum sound. Is someone playing drums here?"

"No, this was left by Lord Kyosuke as decoration."
