Chapter 264.2. A Heartwarming Party

"Hahaha, it's great, Birei. Isn't our grandchild's magic adorable? And even my baldness is cured."

"Yeah, I feel better too, no more body aches. Thank you, Miu-chan."

They hold and gently stroke me, so I close my eyes and happily purr like a kitten. 

Grandpa and grandma love Mii-chan very much. They also have great respect for her.

After all, with the help of Takano County, they could have expanded the company many times over, but Grandpa firmly refused.

He's a splendid person who wants to run the company with his strength. He also has foresight in investments and runs a stable business.

So, in terms of support, they mainly receive discounted dungeon soil from Gardo Farm.

"By the way, the soil we bought from Gardo Farm has amazing effects. Could you tell that to Houretsu-kun who recommended it, Miu-chan?"

"Hehe, did you grow delicious vegetables?"

"Oh, yes. A customer who bought strawberries from us called to say they grew in just 7 hours! I want to discuss this in detail."

"Papa, I'll talk to him."

I softly look away and reply energetically. Oops, it seems like the soil with Plant Growth Potion V was a bit too effective.

Well, I want to support my family. I'll use Plant Growth Potion IV next time.

"Miu-chan, the party is coming up. Are you ready?"

"Yes, Ranko-san and Niume did my hair, and I'm wearing a special dress!"

Mii-chan wore a slightly fancy one-piece outfit. She spins around, and her skirt flutters like flowers.

"You look adorable, young lady."

"I thought a goddess had descended. Won't you eat this steamed bun?"

Ranko-san and the others come in from behind Grandpa and praise her. Niume seems a bit interested in the steamed buns on the table and gets her foot stepped on by Ranako-san.

"It's the Baron's party, but since it's in our garden, Miu-chan, you don't need to be too nervous."

Grandpa pats my head with a reassuring look, so I nervously intertwine my fingers and return a worried glance.

"Yeah, I wonder if I can greet everyone properly."

Mii-chan is quiet and shy, so she's worried.

"Don't worry, Miwa-chan. Everyone at the Baron's place is very kind."

"That's right, Mi-chan. Today, let's be well-behaved and overcome our shyness."

Mama is strangely demanding. Well, Mii-chan is always quiet, after all.

"Hahaha, children should be a bit more lively, you know?"

"That's right, Birei. Miu-chan can't even carry a watermelon. She needs to be a bit more active."

Grandma Tobita recalls the time Mii-chan couldn't carry a watermelon during summer vacation. Mii-chan is not very strong.

"Dad and the others are being too lenient with Miu-chan's antics."

Mama narrows her eyes for some reason. Anyway, I'll just be quiet and maybe act a bit shy with teary eyes.

But Grandpa Tobita just laughed it off, saying 'hahaha.'.

"No, no. It's probably because it's the city. In the countryside, Miu-chan's level of excitement is considered pretty mild."

That's right, say more. Mii-chan has been well-behaved. But she still does unexpected things, so mama is often cautious. Even though Mii-chan is this quiet.

"Really, huh? Did you forget that country kids usually play much wilder pranks? Come on, you can eat these steamed buns without reservation."

"Alright, Grandma. I won't hold back then."

In response to Grandma Tobita offering steamed buns, for some reason, Niume nods deeply and starts munching on a steamed bun. As expected of Niume. She's the world's strongest maid who acts the same no matter where she is. Ranko-san is refraining from hitting people because it's someone else's house, but Niume doesn't seem to care. 

She might get scared later.

"I remember. Well, I believe you'll behave today, right?"

"Yes, I'll be quiet and shy."

I'm good at being quiet, after all. If I intertwine my fingers and walk quietly with my head down, I'll be the well-behaved Mi-chan.

"Miu-chan is still so small. Grandpa can carry her."

"Alright, let's go to the party venue."

"Yeah! I wonder if there's delicious food."

The excited Grandpa Tobita lifted Mii-chan with one hand. And she's carried away. I wonder what kind of party it is.

As we leave with excitement, we go out into the garden and widen our eyes in surprise.

The garden, more like an open area with no hedges, is filled with a crowd of people, but we don't know how far it stretches...

[A Warm Welcome to Takano Miu-chan, Our Hometown's Pride, Takano Birei-san]

A banner is displayed.

"Wow, our hometown's pride has come!"

A big, bearded man in a formal kimono who looks like a mountain bandit raises both hands and welcomes with a cheer.

"Hey, it's Takano Miu-chan!"

"Yo, our pride!"

"There's lots of delicious food!"

Everyone welcomes us with smiles.

I understand, I understand. This kind of celebration is common. It's a welcome party where relatives gather to support you.

The dishes are simple simmered dishes and large platters of fried chicken, typical home-cooked feasts, and people are dressed a bit more formally.

I'm excited by the friendly atmosphere. I like this kind of vibe.

And is that a portable shrine? Exciting.
