"Did Sakura tease you again?"
"Mm..."
Hanamaru Hanabi focused intently on playing with her sisters on the bench, responding softly.
As a mother, Mrs. Uesugi naturally noticed the gentleness and kindness on her daughter-in-law's face. She and Hanabi's mother had been best friends since high school.
Having watched their children grow up together, if she had any expectations for this daughter-in-law, it was that she had none.
Compared to her meek nature, her son undoubtedly dominated in the marriage.
And while marriage should be fair, occasional playful behavior between a couple is no issue, but repeatedly bullying the weaker party is truly problematic.
With this in mind, Mrs. Uesugi had to display her maternal authority in front of Uesugi Sakura.
"Hanabi, wait a moment."
"Huh?"
Thus, seeing Hanamaru Hanabi's behavior, she stopped inquiring, turned around, and dragged Mrs. Hanamaru, who was photographing the snowy pine trees, to hunt down Sakura, who had disappeared.
