Chapter 117: 117: Winter Family Vacation (2)

The Yue Family plus Su Rukia had gathered at the personal airport behind the Moonlight Lake Mansion. Though the Yue Family knew about the charter jet, it was their first time seeing it. This family who had only experience riding a plane in an economy class was dumbfounded by the interior of the charter jet. There are stewardesses and the pilot himself welcoming the Yue family in. As for Yue Xuexia, she was carried on the back of Taiyang and was brought in and placed on the bed in the jet letting her continue her sleep.

The Yue family and Su Rukia were looking around the charter jet enjoying themselves. When the jet was about to lift off, they sat on their seats until the plane was stable in the air. While on air, Mama Yue checked on her eldest daughter who was still asleep and returned to where the others were. As for Su Rukia and Yue Ruxia, they had longed to run around taking pictures here and there. As for Yue Jixia, she leaned on her chair holding a tablet drawing something on it. Digital art is her hobby.

Papa Yue asked, "How is Xue'er?"

"Still asleep. Maybe she was doing some work last night," said Mama Yue.

Papa Yue who was looking through the cabinet where the wines are located pulled out a ten year old wine serving some for him and his wife.

"Let her rest then. Have you arranged our route? Have you found us a hotel to stay in? Where are we going first: Korea or Japan?" Papa Yue asked.

Tan Bingyu who was waiting at the side responded to Papa Yue's questions.

She said, "Lord Yue, our first destination is Japan. There is no need to book hotels as the Mistress bought a manor. We will be staying there while we are in Japan."

The Yue couple were only stunned but weren't surprised about it. Their eldest daughter tends to have assets everywhere without them knowing.

Papa Yue asked, "How about the car?"

"It is already prepared in the manor as well," answered Tan Bingyu.

Mama Yue smiled and said, "Since the house and the car are arranged then I will just have to choose the route. Children come here! Is there any place in Japan you want to go to?"

"Osaka Castle!" said Yue Ruxia.

Su Rukia said, "I want to see the Tokyo Skytree."

"Ma, add Mount Fuji in the list," said Papa Yue. "We can go hiking."

"That's tiring, Papa. Jie will definitely not come," said Yue Jixia.

Papa Yue said, "You guys need so much exercise."

"But isn't it winter, can we even climb up?" said Yue Ruxia.

Mama Yue also recalled the season and immediately removed hiking in the plan.

"Pa, let's go hiking next time in spring," said Mama Yue.

Yue Jixia said, "Ma, I want to go to Universal Studio Japan."

"Okay, I will have it listed down. We will be there for a week. We can at least go to places we truly wanted to go," Mama Yue said.

Yue Xuexia, who just woke up from her nap overheard the family planning the routes and said as she sat down with them.

"Ma, add Akihabara, Ginza and some shrines," said Yue Xuexia while yawning. "Actually, we better go to Ginza or to some malls to buy some clothes and necessities first. The Manor had been left to the servants but it should be empty."

"Akihabara. Sis, you…" Yue Jixia wanted to say that her elder sister wanted to buy some manga. She has always wanted to have her own library full of manga. Though the genre she wanted was something their parents cannot be told.

The family made a list of tourist spots they wanted to go to. It would be arranged by Tan Bingyu into a more appropriate route where they wouldn't have to get lost on the way or waste time driving all over the place. After the routes were planned successfully, the family had their lunch on the plane. The flight to Japan only took a few hours after all.

As soon as they arrived at the airport, the Charter Jet was left in the rented space in the airport. The payment for it lasted for a whole year with one full payment. On their way out, the manor had sent the butler and a black limousine to pick up the Yue Family. The butler was able to speak Chinese and English, so he welcomed them with their own country's language. The name of the Butler is Sebastian.

Butler Sebastian lowered his back and welcomed his master and mistresses. "Welcome to Japan. My Master, Madame, and Young Mistresses! I am Sebastian. Mt. Yoshino Sakura Manor's main Butler at your service."

"Hello, Butler Sebastian! Let's continue the conversation on the way," said Yue Xuexia with a friendly smile. She has always been polite towards the elders. Unless the elder is the kind that doesn't deserve respect or want a beating, she would treat most of them with the politeness they deserve.

"Hoho~ Young Miss Xuexia doesn't need to be polite. Please get in the car. We will head to the manor so the Master and Mistresses can take their rest. There is a fridge inside, please feel free to get anything you want." Butler Sebastian said.

The Yue Family and Su Rukia had a friendly conversation with Butler Sebastian. As he is the one chosen by Yue Xuexia to handle their manor, it's normal that they treated her as an acquaintance that will look after them. Moreover, there is Tan Bingyu who will help them on the way. The journey to the manor took longer than expected as it was located on Mt. Yoshino. It can be said that a part of Mt. Yoshino was bought by their eldest daughter and it's considered the Yue Family private property.

As per the request of Yue Xuexia, aside from elderly people that had been taking care of the manor most of the young maid and servants would only be available in the morning as the Yue Family didn't like strangers much at home. Upon their arrival, the manor had been cleaned through and the rooms were prepared for the arrivals of its owner.

There is also a Chinese styled feast prepared for them as soon as they arrive. The cooks made sure that the taste of their dishes were authentic and would definitely make their master feel home. As soon as the Yue Family and Su Rukia arrived, they were first amazed by the scenery on the way and outside the manor. Numerous blooming sakura trees had welcomed them and it was a beautiful sight to behold.

After settling down in the manor and eating their meals, the Yue Family except for Yue Xuexia had explored their manor, especially the sakura garden outside.

Seeing that Yue Xuexia, the real head of the Yue Family, isn't going out with her family, Butler Sebastian didn't know who to follow first.

Yue Xuexia said, "Grandpa Sebastian, please go ahead and guide my family in the manor. I want to stay here for a while and complete work that needs to be finished before I can enjoy my vacation. I have Sister Bingyu with me. So, please don't worry."

Butler Sebastian bowed his head and understood that his priority wasn't Lady Xuexia but her family while Lady Tan's priority will be their Lady Xuexia instead. After knowing his part, he immediately followed after the Yue Family roaming around the manor. As for Taiyang, he had already raided the kitchen and the cooks happily fed him with everything they could make.

After enjoying the manor and the scenery outside for a while, the Yue Family who finally had their rest started planning their vacation. They can go to the Tourist spot they had listed before tomorrow. For now, they wanted to buy some change of clothes as they only have a few with them. Some basic necessities are prepared in the manor but these are things they aren't used to using so they can only go down the mountain and look around the area.

Moreover, they also wanted to go have a picnic. For that they wanted to buy a few things that they truly wanted to snack on. Butler Sebastian accompanied Master Yue and Madam Yue. So, another butler was sent to guide the three young ladies. Lady Xuexia didn't go with them, but sent some bodyguards that will not only protect them and act as their translators.

As for the Yue couple, Butler Sebastian happily answered all their questions about the manor and its history. It seems this old married couple truly enjoyed having a conversation with him and he himself had enjoyed this conversation as well. Not a while later, the three ladies who went down the mountain excitedly return to the manor and find Yue Xuexia.

Thankfully, at that time, Yue Xuexia had just finished her business conversation with the old men from the CSI Laboratory, who all wanted to personally come over and visit their president. Sadly, Yue Xuexia, who is on vacation, wouldn't accept a visit , especially with her family around. These programmers can only give up meeting her in person.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

Yue Xuexia looked at the door of her room and let the people knocking inside.

"The door is open. Come in!"

As soon as the door was opened Yue Ruxia pulled in Su Rukia while Yue Jixia came after them holding a few things in their hands. There were candied apples in each of their hands and passed their elder sister, Tan Bingyu and two big ones for Taiyang, who happily instantly bit off a part of the candied apple.

"Dajie, this is for you! We already ate one and it's delicious. We already gave some to Ma, Pa and Grandpa Sebas!" said Yue Ruxia.

Yue Xuexia was surprised and tasted the candied apple. "Not bad. To find something like this, did you see a festival?"

"Yes! Butler Yoki told us that there will be fireworks at night." Su Rukia said as she showed an anticipating look of wanting to see fireworks at night especially in a night festival in Japan.

Yue Jixia said, "Can we go together tonight?"

With a smile on her face, Yue Xuexia said, "Okay, let's all go together. Ask Grandpa Sebastian to prepare some clothes for us. We should try wearing kimono for a change."

"I will tell, Ma and Pa!" said Yue Ruxia as she once again pulled Su Rukia with her.

Yue Jixia and Yue Xuexia let out a helpless smile with how excited their youngest is. Their nieces were being pulled over here and there by her energetic little aunt.

---

Evening, as soon as the sun had fallen.

True to their words, Butler Sebastian as a qualified butler upon hearing the plans of his master and mistresses going to a festival prepared some winter kimono for the whole family. The favorite colors of the Yue family members were provided in the kimono prepared for them.

Papa Yue and Mama Yue were given a couple of winter kimonos of the same shade of dark green. Papa Yue's kimono is a plain dark green one with white coat. For Mama Yue, a slightly lighter shade of green kimono with bamboo design was prepared for her. She also wore a thick fur scarf wrapped around her neck. They both look elegant and mature.

As for the four ladies, the two youngest were wearing vibrant color kimonos. Yue Ruxia wore a light pink Kimono with a sakura flower design. Beside her is Su Rukia wearing a light blue kimono with white plum flower design. They two had been taking pictures together after wearing their kimonos. There is also a silent beauty, Yue Jixia, wearing a white kimono with red roses pattern. There is also a casual scarf hanging around her neck and a black gloves.

But what surprised Lady Yue Xuexia was that they didn't expect her to be afraid of the cold. Her black kimono with a white lycoris pattern at the edges was made of the thickest cloth, paired with thick socks, a thick white fur scarf, and a black ear muffler. People would think of her as someone who was fat until they saw her small face and thin wrists, which aren't hidden completely by her clothes.

Mama Yue, Papa Yue, and her siblings plus nieces looked at her (Yue Xuexia), all bundled up in surprise.

Worried, Mama Yue asked, "Xue'er, how about we don't go to the festival? It's cold outside after all!"

With a slight muffled voice, Yue Xuexia responded, "No! I want to eat, play, and watch fireworks too!"

"How about bringing more hot packs instead of bundling up like this?" Papa Yue suggested.

"Dajie! You look like a fat bear! With too many clothes on you!" said Yue Ruxia. Su Rukia, beside her, almost couldn't hold back her laughter and let out a snort after hearing her little aunt's words.

Pfft~

These two brats received a glare from Yue Xuexia and retorted, "You are a fat bear! Your whole family is a fat bear!"

"Jie, you are also included in that family. So, are you accepting that you are a fat bear?" said Yue Jixia.

HAHAHAHA~

In the end, everyone laughs at this scene, including the servants of the manor, the bodyguards, and even the hidden system who was watching the festive scene of the Yue family.
