Chapter 471: Blind Date
The following morning, the Miyazaki family was all dressed up. Miyazaki’s mother was dressed in a traditional Japanese kimono of fine fabrics. Miyazaki’s little sister, who didn’t wear makeup or dress up, was also honest about her personal grooming. Miyazaki Ryui is dressed in a suit. He was the main character of the day.
Everyone else in the family was a supporting role. Miyazaki big sister led her two children, together with her family members, each took a cab and drove to the best high-class Japanese cuisine pavilion in Aomori Prefecture.
The Miyazaki elder sister and the others who had never entered such a high-class place naturally looked from left to right. Miyazaki Ryui did not look at it, not pretending, but he did not see how high-class this place was.
How many times have I been in and out of the Kiraku Japanese restaurant in Taito Ward, Tokyo? A higher level of vision would also make the heart calm.
Their family didn’t come here to eat, but to set up a blind date for Miyazaki Ryui. For today’s blind date, Miyazaki’s mother had prepared long ago.
Blind dates are not as casual as sorority events in Japan, they are very formal. The more family members that come, the more importance is attached to it.
The Miyazaki family was led by a waitress into a large private room that had been reserved earlier, where they were seated one by one in a row on the left side.
This kind of large room is mainly used for blind dates. It was basic etiquette for the man to arrive first and wait for the woman to arrive.
“Mom, you’re very expensive here, aren’t you!” Miyazaki’s eldest sister, even after sitting down, was still looking around, saying.
“It’s expensive for a reason. The match for your brother is the daughter of Mayor Kuroishi. Can you honestly sit down for me?” Miyazaki’s mother was perfectly able to understand her eldest daughter’s mood and said.
“Brother, the mayor’s daughter oh!” Miyazaki’s eldest sister sidled up to Miyazaki Ryui and just smiled.
“Not to mention the mayor’s daughter, even the governor’s daughter is still the same.” Miyazaki Ryui said with a normal heart.
“Our Miyazaki family has been teachers for the last three generations. Your great-grandfather was, your grandfather was, and your father is still. It’s always different in your generation.
You are the current president of Hard Gold Denshi, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Hard Gold Group. You’re also in charge of several thousand employees under your hand.” Miyazaki’s mom said in a serious manner.
“What’s wrong with being a teacher? Our family is also considered a bookish family.” Miyazaki’s little sister blurted out.
“How dare you say that. What part of you looks like a girl from a bookish family? Other than your brother, you and your sister are so poorly read that you can’t even get into college.” Miyazaki’s mom instantly became angry and said.
“It’s not that I couldn’t get in, it’s that I don’t care to get into some of those local universities in Aomori Prefecture.” Miyazaki’s little sister spoke stiffly.
“Then you can go and get into the ones in Tokyo!” Miyazaki’s mom said bluntly.
“Tokyo is just too far from home. Besides, I’m not used to Tokyo’s climate.” Miyazaki’s little sister always had her own variety of crooked reasoning to say.
“Mom, didn’t you go to college like your sister-in-law?” One of Miyazaki elder sister’s children suddenly interjected.
“Don’t listen to your sister-in-law’s nonsense.” In order not to lose face in front of her children, Big Sister Miyazaki stoutly said.
“If you didn’t go to college, you didn’t go to college! Could it be that you went to college? How come I didn’t know that? Mom, do you know?” Miyazaki’s little sister disliked her own sister again.
Miyazaki’s mother looked at her grandson and said, “You two shouldn’t learn from the two of them, if you want to learn, learn from your uncle.
Study hard and get into Waseda University in Tokyo in the future. After graduating, you can then enter into a big-handed enterprise and do something as accomplished as your uncle.”
“Mom, you’re wrong. Brother, when he graduated from Waseda, he didn’t enter into a big hand enterprise either.” Miyazaki’s little sister corrected.
“Now, your brother is the president of Otate Enterprises, correct!” Miyazaki’s mother’s gaze shifted from her grandson to her youngest daughter. She had been pleasant earlier, and this moment it turned into an angry glare.
Miyazaki Ryui sat in the center, completely speechless. He did not fail to feel that women were really troublesome. Not only were they arguing inside the home, but they were also arguing outside.
“Mom, what is the woman a from?” Miyazaki’s eldest sister asked curiously.
“Didn’t I tell you everything? She’s the daughter of the current mayor of Kuroishi. Besides her one, there’s a brother above her who also works inside the government.
All three generations of the Kimura family towards the top have also been civil servants. In the past, our family wouldn’t have been able to marry each other. Even if we had, we would have been regarded as high class.
Nowadays, it’s completely different. I rather feel that they are climbing high above us.” Miyazaki’s mother gradually calmed down, showing a confident side and said.
“Kuroishi City’s economy within Aomori Prefecture belongs to the quite back of the pack. The population is around thirty thousand people, all unlike our Aomori City which has three hundred thousand people.” Miyazaki-chan calmly said.
“It’s not like we’re in a group fight, it’s about the number of people.” Miyazaki’s big sister said in disbelief.
“You’re missing my point. I’m afraid that within these 30,000 people in Black Stone City, there are only a few thousand people who truly have the ability to work as young laborers.
The vast majority of people over there are the old, weak, women and children who stay at home. The young people have all gone out to work. Even the nearest place to work is Aomori City or Hachinohe City, which is one of the top economic centers in the prefecture.
Even my brother manages thousands of people under him, so it’s a guarantee that there are more young people working than in that one city of theirs.” Miyazaki’s little sister smirked.
“It’s entirely possible.” Miyazaki Ryui couldn’t help but be amused by his little sister’s remark that wasn’t meant to be a joke and said.
“If you don’t feel good about the one you’re on a blind date with, don’t force yourself. Next, I have two more. One is the daughter of an entrepreneur in Aomori City, and the other is the daughter of a relative on your aunt’s side of the family.
Your aunt says she’s very pretty and a sensible teacher. Only, the family background is very average, definitely no match for the mayor’s daughter, the entrepreneur’s daughter.” Miyazaki’s mom looked at her son and said.
Miyazaki Ryui was not a child, after all, he was a thirty year old man. He and can not be clear that matchmaking is to put all kinds of the most practical conditions are on the stage to speak one by one?
Both sides feel suitable, not unilateral loss, basically this one thing can be finalized. If there are no major problems, the man and woman can get married.
Even in Japan in the 21st century, matchmaking is an important channel for men and women to get married. Especially in the small areas of Japan, the proportion is even greater.
The men in the remote areas of Japan do not have wives to marry, so naturally, they are “imported brides”. In the early days, it was Korea, and Korean brides in some parts of Japan accounted for more than half of the women in the village.
Nowadays, they are mainly from Southeast Asian countries. Japanese women born here don’t want to stay in their hometowns, so they run away, resulting in a loss of women.
