Chapter 673: A New Situation
At noon, Masayoshi Kishimoto sat down at the dining table at Makoto Natsui’s place. He picked up his chopsticks and started to eat, not holding them sideways and saying “I’ll start”.
Natsui Makoto joyfully said, “Today, the teacher of the early childhood education class complimented our family’s truthfulness, saying that he is very smart and has great potential.”
Masayoshi Kishimoto stopped his chopsticks, looked sideways at her and said, “Are you sure? It couldn’t be that you transferred the teacher’s words complimenting Mika to Makoto?”
“I’m sure, very sure. I’m telling the truth, I’m not lying to you.” Natsui Makoto said bluntly.
“Doesn’t make sense. Mika-chan is clearly about to act more active than Makoto.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said thoughtfully.
“Is it bad that our son is smart and has potential? What even the teachers at the early childhood class think is so can’t be wrong.” Natsui Makoto was full of infinite good expectations for her son.
“I’m not saying it’s bad, I just don’t think it makes sense. If the teacher at the early childhood class was all about reading people, then she wouldn’t be working as a kindergarten teacher and getting a poor salary.” Masayoshi Kishimoto blurted out.
Natsui Makoto wasn’t happy about it, “Out of all those kids, why did she only praise us Real alone? It’s a good indication that we, Makoto, are indeed one of the best kids in there.
The teacher at the early childhood education class isn’t as good as you at looking at adults, but she’s certainly better at looking at children than you are. The others aren’t some newbie kindergarten teacher, but someone who’s been working for twenty, thirty years.”
Masayoshi Kishimoto felt that the likelihood of the other person currying favor with Makoto Natsui was almost zero. Unless that person knew his true identity and her relationship with himself.
This to ingratiate himself should also say that both Makoto and Mika are awesome, just saying that Makoto is good and not Mika is not a good strategy for one to ingratiate himself with the other.
“Now, that’s too early for you to say. One only knows if one can be a good person when one grows up?” Justice Kishimoto said calmly.
“Just because a son doesn’t cling to you like a daughter, does that make him less pleasing to you?” Natsui Makoto asked with a sense of purpose.
“Why would you have such a thought?” Although Masayoshi Kishimoto knew that she was a bit patriarchal, it wasn’t as if she didn’t love her daughter. Right at the present time, he clearly felt that she was different from the usual inside the road.
“Real is not only your son, but also your eldest son. It is only natural for a son to inherit his father’s business.” Natsui Makoto said in a serious manner.
“Did anyone say anything to you?” Masayoshi Kishimoto not without beginning to suspect that someone behind her was saving the road.
Natsui Makoto is not good at lying, involuntarily just like a child who has done something wrong is slightly lowered his head, not dare to look directly at his gaze.
Kishimoto Masayoshi took one look at her and concluded that his guess was one hundred percent correct. This must be someone who was saving her to get involved in her own family affairs.
Masayoshi Kishimoto put down the chopsticks in his hand and said seriously, “Honestly, who is that person behind you?”
Natsui Makoto said truthfully, “My mom.”
“Whether it’s a good one or a bad one. You listen to whatever your mom says?” Masaru Kishimoto said nonchalantly.
“At first, I didn’t take my mom’s words seriously. But, she said it over and over again, often, then I began to think that what she said was not unreasonable.
You couldn’t marry me, and I resigned myself to that. However, the real is your biological son. As his real mother, I have to seek a better future for him!” Natsui Makoto said one by one.
“Are you starting to not trust me?” Justice Kishimoto asked seriously.
“It’s not that I can’t trust you, but my mom was right. Rich men are the ones who not only have more women, but just as many children.” Natsui Makoto said truthfully.
Masayoshi Kishimoto understood, although she didn’t compete with other women for favor and never asked if she had other women outside of the house, once it came to the son he had with her, things changed subtly.
Natsui Makoto did not plan for her own future, but for that of her son. She was afraid that her son would not be favored by herself, which meant that he would not be valued.
The result of this not being valued would naturally not be any good. Nine times out of ten, the words of the kindergarten teacher in the early childhood education class who praised her son for being really smart and having great potential was a story that she had made up according to her mother’s intentions.
As for the purpose, it was just to set off the real, so that she could be more attentive to her son. Even if he hated her mom pointing fingers behind his back, he could completely understand.
It was true that he couldn’t do anything to make Natsui Makoto break the mother-daughter relationship with her mom. Mothers and daughters tended to always tend to form a single heart.
In this world, apart from herself and her sons and daughters, Natsui Makoto seemed to have only her mom as her only relative.
Even if there was no such thing as today’s noon, it would appear sooner or later in the future. Although Kishimoto Makoto is not his own legitimate son, but belongs to the real firstborn son.
Whether according to Japanese tradition or Chinese tradition, the status of the eldest son is different from other sons. Not to mention that Japan was deeply influenced by Chinese Confucian culture, and also fully accepted the idea of primogeniture.
“Let’s eat.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said as he picked up the chopsticks he had put down.
Natsui Makoto felt that he did not want to talk about this matter in depth with himself. Even if she didn’t say much, she didn’t completely give up on it in her heart.
If she had only given birth to her daughter Mika, there would not have been this kind of competition in her head.
She could have been content to keep her home and daughter and live a happy life with Masayoshi Kishimoto.
However, God had allowed her to have a son. Her son’s biological father was not an ordinary man. Naturally, she didn’t want to see her son be just a mediocre person in the future.
What Natsui Makoto wanted was to see a situation where the old man was a hero and the son was a good man. Even if she didn’t have a name in her own life and was just an outsider, it didn’t matter.
As long as she has a talented son who can help Kishimoto justice in the future, and get the recognition of other people around her, it will not be in vain to live such a life.
Natsui Makoto accepted his mother’s brainwashing, also not without feeling that should belong to the real, as his biological mother did not take the initiative to actively fight for him, that is worthy of being a mother.
As for her daughter Mika, she really did not pay much attention. Even if the daughter was capable, she was still a daughter. Masayoshi Kishimoto would not have passed the throne to his daughter, but would have chosen one of his many sons from other women to succeed him.
The result of his son’s lack of success would be that he himself would fall out of favor. At that time, it would be particularly difficult for him to see him even once. This was definitely not a result that Natsui Makoto wanted.
