Chapter 278: After All, It’s Everyone’s First Time to Be a Parent So Please Don’t Complain Too Much
"It seems that this kid has fooled us." Gintoki curled his lips and muttered disdainfully.
"Eh! Really?" Shinpachi was shocked and then turned to look at Tamaru, who was playing with Kagura again.
"Maybe this child also noticed something, so he did that," Keiko smiled bitterly, and then her expression softened a little, "Please don't take it to heart. After all, that child has lost his father since he was a child and basically has no friends. That's why he is a little willful."
"No, no," Shinpachi quickly replied, "After all, Tamaru-kun is just a child, but I still care a little. Why would you lie to Tamaru-kun like that? It must be very distressing for Tamaru-kun."
"Actually..." Keiko began to slowly tell her story...
In the story, a bad girl meets a bad boy and falls in love. Even if they are poor, they still pursue happiness despite the obstacles of others.
Life after marriage was still the same as before. The bad boy and girl became a bad couple until one day... their child was born.
The man decided to turn over a new leaf and be a role model for his child. However, the woman was the same as before. She had not changed at all. Perhaps she had not accepted the fact that she had become a mother. However, the man never blamed the woman. He even comforted her and said: [No need. Keiko, you can do as you used to. You don't have to change yourself deliberately.]
The man found a proper job. Although it was a bit bitter and tiring, the man was very happy every day. He got up early every day to work. At night, even if he were exhausted, he would still open the door of his home with a smile on his face.
As for the woman, she still had nothing to do every day and play pachinko, just like in the past. However, this family did not quarrel because of this. Every day was full of laughter. The woman felt very happy. She even felt that they would continue to be like this.
But... one day, the man did not get up early...
The man was sick. It was very serious. At this moment, the woman really panicked. All the doctors could do nothing about it. From that day on, the woman was muddle-headed all day. She did not know how to face her child and her husband, who was sick all day in bed.
However, on the contrary, the man always had an optimistic smile whether it is towards women or their children. Even at that point, he was still able to smile and say to the woman: [Keiko, it doesn't matter. You can do it as usual. I will get better soon and continue to work! I have decided to be an excellent husband and father!]
At that moment, looking at the man's smile, the woman suddenly woke up. The woman took off her ear piercing and no longer put on the thick smoky makeup. She no longer wore those gaudy clothes. The woman began to learn how to cook and care for the patient and went out to find jobs. She began to learn how to become a wife and how to become a mother. Although she was clumsy at the beginning, she always made the man laugh.
The days passed day by day. The man's body never got better. It even got worse. But on the contrary, in the face of a child who grew up day by day, the man was always smiling. Even though his whole body was in pain and he could not sleep well, he never complained. He could even endure the pain and joke with his child. Thanks to the man, the child was also very cheerful and sensible...
One day, when the woman was ready to go out to work, the child asked: [What kind of work does the mother do?]
The man was about to say something, but the woman laughed loudly and said: [Work? Nothing. A mother's job is to play pachinko every day, while a father is to work hard every day in our house.]
The man couldn't help but laugh. He wanted to explain for his wife, but the woman made a gesture of silence. She bent down, touched her son's little head, and turned to leave.
At night, after the child fell asleep, the man curiously asked the woman why she said that. The woman smiled and replied: [Because didn't you say that you wanted to be an excellent husband and father? Then, I can act as a bad wife and mother who doesn't do her job. Although I can't satisfy your other wishes, I can still do this. ]
The man cried...
The next day, the man left his beloved wife and child forever and left the two forever as an excellent husband and father...
After that, the woman has been playing that role until now...
After listening to Keiko, Kawaki and Gintoki did not speak, but Shinpachi's face was full of silent tears.
"Tamaru, it's time to go back." After Keiko shouted, Tamaru stopped playing with Kagura and ran excitedly to Keiko.
...
Looking at the mother and son pushing the cart further and further away, Shinpachi wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and sighed, "What a great mother."
"She should be an idiot mother," Gintoki curled the corners of his mouth, "For a dead man to do this kind of thing, she is a hopeless big idiot."
"Gin-san, what you said is too much!" Shinpachi was somewhat dissatisfied.
"But... I really admire this kind of idiot." Gintoki gently raised the corner of his mouth, looked up at the sky full of stars, and whispered.
"Parents are sometimes really admirable." Kawaki sighed slightly.
"Aren't you an orphan?" Gintoki casually ridiculed.
"Hey, is it really okay for you to say something like this at a time like this? You should also pay attention to the atmosphere! How can it be repaired now!" Kawaki retorted expressionlessly, "You are an absolute idiot!"
Then, Kawaki and Gintoki started to fight each other again...
(This chapter is over.)

Since there is not enough for one chapter, I will start the content of the next one directly...
--Dividing line--
On a rainy day, Yorozuya.
Looking at Gintoki, lying in bed with a mask on his face and a cooling patch on his forehead, coughing from time to time, Kagura asked curiously, "Mommy said that an idiot would not catch a cold, but why did you catch a cold?"
Gintoki did not want to speak, and he was even too lazy to open his eyes.
Seeing this, Kagura pushed Gintoki and asked, "Hey, why is it-aru?"
"You are very noisy. Get out of the way." Gintoki turned over impatiently and pulled the quilt on his body, "I'm obviously suffering from a cold, so don't bother me. Let me have a good rest...cough cough..."
"Ah----" Kagura suddenly realized something. She reached out her small hand and tugged at the white face mask on Gintoki's face, "What's this? This is really good. That mask is so handsome. I want to wear it too-aru."
"Don't you know how to look at the atmosphere?" Gintoki retorted helplessly.
"Gin-san, the porridge is ready." Holding a pot of porridge, Shinpachi pushed open the bedroom door and walked in.
...
"Alright, this is good." Shinpachi handed the bowl to Gintoki.
"I'm sorry, I don't have any appetite..." Gintoki sat up and replied weakly.
"If you don't eat, your cold won't get better." Shinpachi frowned and reminded him, "Sleep after eating and sweating; that is the most effective for colds."
However, just as he finished speaking, Shinpachi inadvertently glanced at Kagura, who was holding a pot and eating the hot porridge with a head full of sweat.
"Why are you sweating all over while eating!" Shinpachi shouted with bulging veins.
"Shinpachi..." Kagura put down the empty pot and pretended to be weak. She covered her forehead and said weakly, "I feel very uncomfortable. What should I do-aru? I feel that I can't eat without wearing a mask. I really can't do it-aru."
Shinpachi instantly shouted, "Don't lie!"
"What? Gin-chan is the only one who can wear it. He is really too cunning-aru." Kagura folded her arms, puffed her cheeks, and complained, "He can eat porridge, wear a mask, and maybe there's even a party-aru. I also want to catch a cold!"
"Are you an idiot?" Gintoki squinted his eyes with an expressionless face, "You won't catch a cold with your brain!"
"Don't think that you can be arrogant just because you catch a cold. Naturally wavy hair!" Kagura retorted with a face full of disdain, "As long as I want, I can be covered with the influenza virus at any time! Don't underestimate me-aru!"
"Idiot, as expected, this person is an idiot." Gintoki held his forehead and muttered helplessly.
However, right at this moment, the door to Yorozuya's room was suddenly blasted open...
After a loud bang, the sound of footsteps came from Yorozuya's door to Gintoki's bedroom.
Bang!
Kawaki kicked Gintoki's door open and dragged Kagura out with lightning speed, ignoring Gintoki, who was knocked out by the door.
"Are you alright?!" Kawaki, who was wearing a facemask, looked at Kagura in front of him and said with an exaggerated expression, "Did that silver-haired naturally wavy hair infect you with some strange virus? You should know that the easiest one to carry a virus in the biological world is the silver-haired naturally wavy hair!"
"That, that..." All of Kagura's thoughts were attracted by the facemask on Kawaki's face.
"I almost forgot! It would be better for Kagura to wear a facemask in this environment," Kawaki took out a brand new facemask from his bosom and put it on Kagura, "This is a pink facemask with a bear pattern that I specially chose!"
"I also have a mask-aru!" Kagura shouted excitedly. Then she looked at Shinpachi in the room and pointed at the facemask on her face, "Shinpachi, do you see that? I also have a mask-aru!"
"That... although I understand how you feel right now..." Shinpachi asked as he pointed at Gintoki, who had fainted after being knocked out by the door, "Shouldn't you be more concerned about Gin-san now?"
"Eh, isn't he sleeping pretty soundly?" Kawaki glanced at Gintoki, who was lying on the ground and said casually, "He'll be fine after a good sleep. Don't worry."
"He didn't fall asleep but was knocked unconscious, right?" Shinpachi complained loudly.
"Really? There's a door on him!" Kawaki said in surprise, "Speaking of which, did you do this? Shinpachi, in order to make Gintoki fall asleep, you actually did this. What a good child~."
