After Shizuka parked the car in the private garage next to the house, Tsuna opened the door, took Shoko's hand, and got out of the back seat.
Yaeko unbuckled her seat belt slowly and got out of the passenger seat.
Shizuka waited for them to get out of the car and checked the things inside the car before getting out of the car. After getting out and closing the door, she turned around and said to Yaeko, who was waiting for her:
"Yaeko, go and call Aunt Nishimiya to have lunch. When I came back, I told her not to make lunch."
Yaeko felt that it was too much trouble for Shizuka, who had to pick them up and drop them off at the kindergarten and make lunch by herself. She
quickly waved her hand to refuse: "No! It's too much trouble for you. You and Tsuna can come to my place to eat."
Shizuka raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Yaeko, as if she had already seen through Yaeko's thoughts. She chuckled at first and said nothing.
Yaeko knew that there was no room for negotiation and that she should have done everything. She could only sigh and nod to Shizuka in response, then leave the garage first, go home, and call her mother and Yuzuru to come over.
Shoko held Tsuna's hand with her left hand and ignored her mother's departure, holding the kitten doll lovingly.
Tsuna pulled Shoko out of the garage, and without waiting for Shizuka to lock the door behind him, he turned right and walked to the front door of his house, letting go of Shoko's little fleshy hand.
He squatted down habitually, moved the third bluestone brick in front of the door, took out the spare key from the bottom to open the door, and then buried it to cover it.
After Tsuna put the key back, he stood up and handed the puppy doll to Shoko to hold, and then patted his hands that were covered with dust and dirt from moving bricks.
He pushed open the half-open door and did not choose to hold Shoko's hand. He walked to the entrance and stopped, took out two pairs of children's slippers from the shoe cabinet on the left, put them on himself first, and then put them on for Shoko.
After Tsuna was done, he stood up and clapped his hands, smiled, and looked at Shoko and slowly said, "Let's go, Shoko, I'll get you some candy."
Shoko held the dolls in both hands. Seeing Tsuna helping her take off her shoes, she didn't feel strange or shy. She could hear Tsuna's words through her hearing aid, and Tsuna's pronunciation. She nodded happily and responded, "Yeah... Yeah!"
Tsuna walked quickly on the wooden corridor in slippers and walked towards the restaurant.
Shizuka walked in from outside the house, saw the direction Tsuna was heading, and shouted in a joking tone:
"Don't eat secretly, Tsuna, you have to wait until Aunt Nishimiya and the others arrive before you can eat."
Tsuna didn't reply. He was used to his mother's teasing and raised his right hand to wave, indicating that he knew.
When Tsuna returned to the living room with a bag of milk-flavored lollipops, he saw Shizuka holding Shoko in his arms, making her dare not move, and her left and right hands were still gently rubbing Shoko's face.
Tsuna put the milk candy on the coffee table, unwrapped it, took out a lollipop from it, and rescued Shoko from Shizuka's arms. He didn't forget to complain:
"Mom, why do you always rub Naoko's face?"
Tsuna said, without stopping the action on his hands, skillfully tore open the candy paper wrapped around the lollipop, and gently put the lollipop into Shoko's mouth.
Shoko quickly waved her hand to indicate that Aunt Miyamura was not bullying her, and she was volunteering, so Tsuna could rest assured. She also took out the lollipop from her mouth and handed it to Tsuna's mouth, asking him to eat it and not to be angry.
Tsuna sniffed the milky lollipop, which was covered with Naoko's crystal clear saliva. He swallowed the saliva secreted by nervousness.
It was not that he wanted to eat it, but he couldn't stand the look of the woman behind Shoko with a teasing look.
Tsuna felt that if he bit the lollipop, the woman would take out her mobile phone to take a picture of this scene in an instant.
Shoko held the lollipop and saw that Tsuna didn't react. She thought he despised her and got a little angry. She gently pressed the lollipop against his lips. Shoko was afraid that if she pressed too hard, it would hurt Tsuna.
A "click" sounded, and there was a flash of light.
Out of curiosity, Shoko looked back and found that Aunt Miyamura was holding a cell phone and doing something. She turned around and saw Tsuna, who looked hopeless.
Shoko looked at Tsuna's expression and asked in an unclear tone:
"It's not good... ah... sorry." After she finished speaking, Shoko suddenly thought of another possibility, thinking that Tsuna disliked her.
As soon as this thought came to her mind, Shoko's eyes began to turn red, and tears began to well up in her eyes.
Tsuna watched Shoko from the time she started talking to the time she was about to cry, and the interval was only a few seconds.
Tsuna was shocked by Shoko's appearance before he could recover from the fact that his mother had secretly taken photos.
Tsuna was completely at a loss and spoke incoherently. He hurriedly wanted to explain, but was afraid that Shoko couldn't hear clearly, so he changed his tone to an anxious and slow tone:
"Delicious, delicious, this is the most delicious lollipop I have ever eaten."
After Tsuna finished speaking, he hurriedly took out the lollipop he was holding and stuffed it into Shoko's mouth again, raising his hands to gently wipe away the tears in Shoko's eyes.
Another white flash and a "crack" sound came.
Shoko recovered because of Tsuna's words and actions, but Tsuna's fists hardened because of his mother's speechless action again.
"Excuse me!" At this time, an elderly voice came from the entrance and interrupted the mother and son who were playing.
Shizuka hurriedly stood up from the tatami and walked out of the living room to the corridor to greet the Nishimiya family.
You can still joke with Yaeko and the others, but it's different with the seniors of the Nishimiya family. Even though you are already very familiar with the Nishimiya family, you still have to be polite.
Tsuna saw them and called them politely: "Grandma Nishimiya, Aunt Nishimiya."
Both of them nodded to Tsuna, who called them. Tsuna has been polite for more than one or two years. They are used to it.
Shizuka took Yuzuru from Yaeko's arms, then carried her back to the living room and sat on the tatami, stretched out her left index finger, and began to tease her.
Shoko followed behind Shizuka. She hadn't seen her sister for a long time.
Tsuna didn't follow Shizuka, but walked into the dining room, took out two empty cups, took two cups of water from the filtered tap, and then walked steadily back to the living room and handed them to Aunt Yaeko and Grampma Ito.
This action also earned verbal praise from Yaeko and Ito
After teasing the baby for a while, Shizuka felt that the time was about right, so she stood up from the tatami and handed Yuzuru in her arms to Ito, who was watching a comedy show on TV.
Then she took Yaeko, who was kneeling on the tatami, to the kitchen to process some ingredients.
Shoko moved to tease the baby in Grampa's arms, and Tsuna felt a little bored, so he picked up the orange on the coffee table and started peeling it.
Yuzuru is still young, and Ito doesn't dare to hand her over to Shoko and Tsuna.
