This is tacit approval.
It would be too much to refuse again.
Let's see if we can help with poverty alleviation first...
Chenshi.
The snow has emerged, and it looks no different from usual.
Those who know her well know that she gets up very punctually.
Usually, around 5:15 AM, they would do some cleaning work in the nearby outer corridors, ferry halls, or courtyards.
While Shizuko was still enthusiastically sweating and wielding her hoe, she noticed something wonderful beneath the snow.
She felt somewhat relieved and at ease.
They were, after all, friends who often went out together.
It's really nice to be able to be true sisters~
Sometimes Shizuko worries that Yukino might be too reserved.
Looks like there's nothing to worry about!
One has two.
In short, everyone's the same now.
Kyosuke Kousaka, whose poverty alleviation work was proving somewhat difficult, was on the other side.
He bowed his head in submission to the broad and magnanimous mind, and could only admire him.
It took Kousaka Kyosuke a while to return to normal.
“Come on, I’ll write you another poem today. I think this one can express everything.”
"If life were only as beautiful as our first meeting, why would the autumn wind bring sorrow to the painted fan?"
The words, imbued with profound meaning and carrying deep emotions, were written in a simple and straightforward manner.
A faint smile appeared on Fujishikibu's beautiful face.
"Lord Kyosuke, thank you."
"For me, meeting you is my greatest fortune..."
Kousaka Kyosuke made a seemingly sarcastic remark, and then immediately chose to submit.
Fuji Shikibu gently stroked Kousaka Kyosuke's hair.
His other hand was placed on the bright, straightforward Chinese characters on the white paper.
Poetry is good, but it still can't compare to people.
A certain indescribable, intense emotion suddenly surged at an astonishing speed.
A rich, subtle fragrance of orchid and musk wafts through the air…
Kousaka Kyosuke felt a little confused.
The spiritual power within him seemed to have transformed into strings of characters in a special form.
The moment the senses touched them, the characters vanished like illusory rain, disappearing without a trace.
Kousaka Kyosuke, not wanting to think too much, hugged Fuji Shikibu tightly.
The time to express your love has come!
Don't overthink it!
Noon.
It's rare for Kyosuke Kosaka to be with a group of friends.
The spacious mother's room is 50 square meters and can comfortably accommodate dozens of people.
A group of people gathered together in twos and threes, chatting occasionally.
Some people are practicing calligraphy, while others are reading books.
Some people simply fell asleep with soft snoring.
Kyosuke Kosaka stared at Shizuko, who was lying on a soft straw mat covered with a sheet, in the distance, with amusement on his face.
Not long after, a maid came to report on the situation outside.
"Reporting to Lord Kyosuke, a servant from the Daoist's residence has come."
"Okay, I'll go."
Kyosuke Kosaka immediately stood up.
He glanced at the other couples, smiled, nodded, and said hello before leaving.
The Taoist priest is now my superior.
Even if it's just an ordinary servant, Kyosuke Kosaka will go and check on him.
Of course, that kind of thing won't happen.
At this moment, the Taoist priest's retainers and vassals came over, and he would definitely want to meet them.
The positions of household officials, from highest to lowest, are: Household Manager, Household Attendant, Household Servant, and Clerk.
The division of each rank became increasingly detailed as the status of noble families rose.
Kyosuke Kosaka didn't know much about this either.
However, one fact is very clear—the Taoist priest's family support staff can definitely be considered his confidants.
Even if it isn't, it's definitely not simple.
There is only one family order.
The Family Support Center is like the "Second-Rank Official" in the four-rank official system, and there are usually four of them.
The Taoist priest comes from a large and wealthy family.
The so-called "household staff" not only had high status and position, but also held official ranks.
Just like inside the prince's tent.
It's not simple at all.
Soon, Kyosuke Kosaka met the waiting family members at the open-air Watari-den.
"Lord Saori?"
Upon seeing a dignified and solemn man around fifty years old, Kyosuke Kosaka looked surprised.
When the person arrived, Sato Sari's slightly aged and serious face broke into a smile.
"Kyosuke, it's been a while."
"It's been quite a while, Lord Sori."
Kyosuke Kosaka looked on with a sigh.
The one in front of me gave it to me.
Nino also got it from this manor.
There's some kind of deep connection between them.
"I'm not happy."
"Let's go into the main hall first," Kousaka Kyosuke said with a smile, raising his hand in a gesture of respect.
Fujiwara Sari, who was trying to maintain a serious expression, relaxed and chuckled.
"You're not being honest. If I hadn't known from Xingcheng that you're good at calligraphy, how long would you have kept it from me?"
"It's all because you didn't ask, Lord Sori. If you had asked, I would have told you everything."
It was discovered that Fujiwara Sari had no intention of coming inside to talk.
Kyosuke Kosaka immediately realized that the person was about to leave.
His mind was racing, pondering the reason: "Is this the Taoist priest's reward? It seems to have come far too soon."
"His words were just as Xingcheng described, he was very quick-witted."
"I'll say twice as many bad things about me today, Lord Xingcheng."
"Hahaha... You should tell Xingcheng this. I just happened to be passing by today, so I'm delivering something to you on behalf of the Daoist Master."
"Could it be a rare and precious treasure?"
"That's one hundred 'Changdeche' helicopters."
"Changdeqie?" Kousaka Kyosuke felt a strange feeling in his heart, but his face showed doubt.
Secretly, they were fiercely criticizing, "Tch, that's been overused, hasn't it?"
Fujiwara Sari's old face was full of smiles.
"You finally guessed it?"
