Perfect daughter-in-law

"Welcome, welcome~!" 

Unexpectedly, before Ishigami said anything, his mother welcomed them, seemingly excited about Onodera's coming. 

"Yuu, this is Rei-chan, right?" 

Ishigami Mama looked at Onodera happily and nodded in satisfaction. 

Beautiful, smart, and came from a good family. 

If this wasn't the most suitable daughter-in-law, then what was suitable? 

Or rather, when she heard from her son that his girlfriend wanted to come, naturally, she prepared herself and even told her husband to get ready, giving the best of the best since it was her first time for her son to bring his girlfriend home. 

Naturally, she was nervous, and while her first son was good and obedient, he was more into his job, which made her worry about whether he would marry late. 

As for being unable to have a wife? 

There was no such thing, especially when his first son was so good. 

However, this was her second son, the troublemaker, so when she saw Onodera for the first time with her own eyes, she had made up her mind to make her into her daughter-in-law! 

"...yes, she is." 

However, Ishigami felt a little overwhelmed by his mother's enthusiasm, but Onodera was fine since she didn't have a communication problem. Instead, she was one of the girls who had a lot of friends and was relatively popular.

"Yes, Aunty, my name is Onodera Rei. I am Yuu's girlfriend..." 

Still, Onodera would be lying if she wasn't nervous, but even so, she introduced herself to her future mother-in-law politely. 

"I see! I see! Can I call you Rei-chan? You can also call me Mom if you want." 

"Ah, um..." 

"I was joking. How about we enter now? I have heard that you like white stew, right? I just cooked it. Let's have dinner together." 

"Thank you, Mom. Ah!" Onodera blushed, feeling shy when she called Ishigami Mama a "Mom." 

"Fufufu... it's fine. It's fine." 

Ishigami Mama had always wished to have a good daughter, so she was more than happy when Onodera was so obedient. 

As the two entered the house, Ishigami was ignored, which made him speechless, but he shook his head before he followed and saw his father in the living room. 

Unlike his mother's overflowing enthusiasm, his father was called calm, reading a newspaper, and appeared nonchalant, but Ishigami could see that his father was the newspaper's upside-down state. 

"Dad, can you read the newspaper that way?" 

Ishigami Papa's lips twitched, and he quickly realized that his newspaper was upside down before he glared at Ishigami, who couldn't give him a cue in a subtle way so he wouldn't feel embarrassed, but fortunately, his wife had taken all the attention of Onodera so his dignity and dignity as a father wasn't damaged. 

However, Ishigami's attention was quickly turned to another person inside the living room. 

A familiar face, with shorter hair, but older and wearing a professional suit. 

Naturally, Ishigami felt that he was more handsome, especially when his body was fitter, and he got a "Double Charm," but there was no doubt he was surprised to see this person here. 

"Aniki, why are you here?!" 

"What were you surprised about? Of course, I was going home when I heard that you wanted to bring your girlfriend home." 

In other words, Ishigami's older brother was curious, that's it! 

Nevertheless, unlike Ishigami, who was still a high school student and lived with his parents, his older brother was an adult and worked in their father's company, so probably, that was why he lived alone. 

Frankly, living alone was more convenient, especially when Ishigami had a lot of secrets that he didn't want to expose. 

Meanwhile, while Ishigami thought of many things, he couldn't help but look at his older brother and father, who was looking at his girlfriend, who was together with Ishigami Mama curiously. 

"...to be honest, I am surprised that you can get such a cute girlfriend, but then again... when I see your change... I am not surprised..." 

Unlike the gloomy Ishigami in the past, Ishigami Yuuta (Ishigami's older brother is unnamed in the original story, so I gave him a name for the sake of convenience) looked at his little brother with a complicated mood since he had to admit that this little brother of his that often caused trouble really had changed! 

Handsome, calm, and mature. 

Instead of being embarrassed when Ishigami Mama suddenly stormed forward to Onodera, Ishigami was so chill that he didn't care much about the conversation between the two, which probably related to his embarrassing past. 

Parents are like that; after all, they love to share the happy times they share with their children, but naturally, for children, it is an embarrassing moment since their happy times mean their dark past. 

"What happened?"

Yuuta couldn't help but ask his younger brother about Ishigami's change.

From working out in the gym, studying hard even when he was home, waking up every morning for jogging, and even bringing him a cute girlfriend home! 

This... this... wasn't Ishigami lived to his fullest? 

When Yuuta thought about his past, he felt a bit speechless since he spent all of his time studying, but then again, in the company, there were many cute employees who often seduced him, and frankly, if he wished to, he could become an evil boss, who made a move on his beautiful married subordinates, but he still wished for pure love, and also someone with a matching background, considering his proud nature as the son of a company owner. 

"You should follow Yuu's example and get married fast." 

Ishigami Papa was more straightforward and quickly told his first son to get a woman and then get married quickly, turning his second son into a good example. 

"....." 

Yuuta's lips twitched, but he didn't say much since he was almost in his 30s, so it was normal for his parents to urge him to marry, but then again, he wasn't in a hurry, especially when marriage was a complicated thing. 

Not because he couldn't find his loved one or because of his proud nature but because the essence of marriage was interest, not love. 

Many people said that marriage is a graveyard of love, while many denied it since many were happy with their marriage; many also supported it since many were unhappy and divorced from their partner. 

If love really could conquer everything, it would be all good, but when one enters society and starts to work, they know well that only a few could live with just love alone. 

"What are you three talking about? Let's eat dinner first." 

"Okay." 

With the urging of Ishigami Mama, all of them started their early dinner, and Onodera sat by the side of Ishigami Mama as their relationship became closer after their small talk in the kitchen. 

Whether it was Ishigami, Papa and Yuuta also nodded, thinking that Ishigami had chosen a good partner, especially since they had learned about Onodera's background. 

If Ishigami's family was a nobody's family and just a middle-class family, it probably didn't matter what kind of woman Ishigami wanted to marry since as long as the woman loved him, it was all good, but even if their family only owned a middle-sized toy company, they were still considered a wealthy family, so there was no doubt, they wanted the Ishigami to have a good partner, who matched their identity since when one reached such a status, while it might appear shallow and hypocrite, they thought themselves better than some and thought others had a lower status, especially in this country, which hierarchical position among people was extremely strict. 

Onodera was the perfect choice since her family's status was about the same as theirs and even slightly higher than theirs, considering she was the first daughter of the jewelry company's CEO. 

Even if their conversation didn't lead to a complete decision about which Ishigami would marry Onodera in the future, there was no doubt that their relationship was happily accepted by his parents. 

However, watching the happy conversation between Onodera and his family, Ishigami fell in silence, wondering what he really should do in the future, especially with all the messy relationships that he had made. 

'Is it possible for the law to allow polygamy?' 

As he thought so, he knew that it was hard, especially with the conservative nature of this country, but then again, the dinner ended with a good ending, and everyone was happy, especially Onodera, who had gained the acceptance and affection of her boyfriend's family. 

However, she felt this war was far from enough, and she didn't plan to go home first since there was something that she wanted to do in this place.

"Yuu, can I look at your room?"
