I leaned against the window, enjoying the unique view of the backyard from a superior position for a while.
Yuzuru stretched lazily, then flipped out of the window and magically stepped on the air, walking towards the forest that had just been transplanted not long ago.
This forest is not very large yet; he "invited" it back from the wild during his spare time over the past two days.
With the help of the snake talisman, Yuzuru uprooted the central area of a vast primeval forest, along with the ground, and then, using the invisibility effect, easily airlifted it back.
It must be said that this method is indeed highly efficient.
Compared to buying saplings one by one for transplanting, this method is undoubtedly much more convenient and faster, and there is no need to worry about acclimatization problems, because the original soil and water are brought over together.
The girls in the family are practicing music inside right now.
As for why they don't practice singing in a dedicated karaoke room, according to Reiko Akiba, only by truly connecting with nature can one sing more moving and beautiful songs.
Sonoko and the others didn't understand this, but they were deeply shocked.
After all, these are the words of an expert, so even if you don't understand them, they certainly can't be wrong.
And so, under the guidance of their family music teacher, Reiko Akiba, they enthusiastically began learning to sing in the forest.
"Tap tap drip drip~ Crack crack chirp~"
As soon as they stepped into the forest, a series of wailing and howling sounds immediately reached their ears, and Yuzuru couldn't help but grit his teeth.
Under a large, lush tree with abundant branches and leaves.
Ran, Sonoko, Ai, and Reiko Akiba were sitting around a soft pink blanket. Sonoko was excitedly holding a suona (a traditional Chinese wind instrument), puffing out her cheeks and playing it with all her might, her face turning red.
But the suona music she played was completely irregular; to say it sounded like ghosts wailing and wolves howling would be an understatement.
The suona horn was deafeningly loud, so loud that the leaves hanging on the branches overhead were shaken precariously.
The three women next to the garden were also in different states.
Xiao Lan looked up at the sky in a daze.
Ai covered her ears tightly with both hands.
Reiko Akiba had completely given up resisting, adopting a "what's the use" attitude, helplessly listening to Sonoko's suona playing, and incidentally casting a resentful glance at Nanami Hanyu who had just walked over.
That look in his eyes seemed to say: Look what you've done!
Yuzuru and Akiba Reiko exchanged a glance and shrugged innocently.
It really isn't his fault!
Akiba Reiko then shot another glare at her: "If it's not your fault, who is? Who set the example for Sonoko becoming like this?"
Yuzuru: "emmm..."
Okay, thinking about it carefully, it seems like I really am to blame.
A few days ago, Akiba Reiko prepared herself and came to the villa to fulfill her duties as a music teacher.
The girls in the family naturally gave him a warm welcome.
You know, this is an internationally renowned musician!
Being able to come and be their private music teacher is like using a cannon to kill a mosquito—they couldn't be happier.
By the way, Ai's Teitan School's choir competition concluded successfully a few days ago.
As expected, with the guidance of Akiba Reiko, a super-powerful figure, their class won the final championship with an absolute crushing victory.
According to Akemi, who went to watch, quite a few children cried at the time.
It wasn't tears of joy, because the children from other classes were crying.
The gap was simply too large. You have to understand that Teitan is a prestigious school, and many children in other classes have been learning music since they were young. Yet, Ai and her classmates, who were novices, won by crushing their opponents.
That kind of gap is easier to bridge than crushing an ant.
Who could hold back? The children burst into tears.
Ai was so embarrassed that she didn't dare to go on stage to receive the certificate. In the end, it was Akemi, who doted on her younger sister, who happily went to receive it for her. After returning, she posted the certificate in the most conspicuous place on the wall of the villa's living room.
As for why Sonoko suddenly switched from learning to sing to learning the suona, it was purely an accident.
At that time, Akiba Reiko asked them what they wanted to learn so that she, as their teacher, could do her homework in advance and provide one-on-one professional guidance.
Everything seemed normal up to this point.
Ran and the others were enthusiastically talking about the songs they wanted to learn, such as "Amazing Grace," which Akiba Reiko sang at her previous concert.
Then……
For some unknown reason, Yu Shengnan suddenly had a whim and went over to join in the fun, expressing that he wanted to learn the suona and hoped that the teacher could give him some pointers.
Reiko Akiba was stunned.
She knew about the suona, a rather "rogue" instrument.
The problem is, how could a soprano singer like her possibly play the suona?
If things had ended there, perhaps none of the subsequent events would have occurred.
But... this isn't over yet!
Upon hearing that Akiba Reiko couldn't play the suona, Yu Sheng Nan became interested. He rummaged through the storage room and found a suona. Relying on his memories from his previous life, he played "Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix" in front of several girls.
The suona truly lives up to its reputation as an instrument that can only be heard at the cost of a life.
The stirring melody of "Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix" instantly captivated the girls. Even Bobo and his younger brother peeked out the window, curious to see where the sound was coming from.
The scene was breathtaking, and the garden was captivated.
Indeed, the second young lady of the Suzuki family fell in love with the majestic and extremely "rogue" sound of the suona, feeling that it was a perfect match for her.
However, Akiba Reiko's nightmare... or rather, the nightmare of everyone in the family, also began.
Although Yuzuru Hanyu's suona playing doesn't have particularly high-level skills, it's still listenable thanks to his unique voice.
But what about Sonoko, the young lady...?
That's just pure nonsense.
These past few days, as soon as school is over, the villa automatically starts to emit a series of ghostly wails and howls, and what's more, Sonoko doesn't seem to notice at all, and she's having a really great time.
This is torture...
Yuzuru is now even starting to suspect that Sonoko is taking revenge on them for not telling her that she bought a sea turtle instead of a tortoise.
Yes, the turtles kept in the garden eventually died.
Unaware of the truth, Sonoko, clutching her beloved little fish tank, excitedly ran to the lake in the backyard and threw all the tiny "turtles" into the lake.
The baby sea turtles, naturally unable to adapt to the salt-free lake water, began desperately crawling towards the shore.
When Sonoko saw this, she thought, "Hey, this won't do."
So she blocked the shore, throwing the sea turtles back onto the bank as soon as they came ashore, continuing to do so until no more sea turtles came ashore. Only then did she return to her villa, satisfied and smug.
