She seems to have shown zero interest in boys to this point. Now, here comes this homely guy from a wholesome background who puts out super-nonthreatening vibes and has quickly won over his son and wife without making anything resembling a move on his daughter. As a father looking out for said daughter's future, he could hardly ask for a better first-boyfriend candidate. Now he's just gotta convince her. And maybe him. (I really need to read the WN.)Wow. These parents are already prospecting a son-in-law. I didn't expect I'd see both be quite the wingparents. Usually, the dad goes bonkers over any hint at the daughter and the guy getting cozy with each other.
Its true that there is an inherent power imbalance, but the parents are doing practically everything to close the gap.These scenes always rub me the wrong way, since there is such a clear power imbalance between them - he's an employee, they're an employer and the way it's drawn just has this subtle patronizing feel to it that makes it all come across manufactured.
I think most of it is just the mangaka not being skilled enough to make the interaction realistic, but it also just reeks a bit of hierarchies. Like a peasant being welcomed into the noble's house.
Exactly! Imagine a hardworking young man from a poorer family shows up when you were expecting an old lady and surpasses all expectations. Not only that, but when put in a sensitive position where he can easily abuse his position for self gain he just ends up acting as a role model for your impressionable kid son.She seems to have shown zero interest in boys to this point.

Thanks for picking this wholesome thing up!Hey man, thanks for letting me know. I’ll try to get one asap 😊
Hey man, thanks for the advice 😊thanks for the chapters.
little point of advice - try to get a proofreader. you are really inconsistent with your use of punctuation marks. half your sentences end with one, the other half doesn't. half of the time it's "otsuki kun" (wrong), the other half it's "otsuki-kun" (correct). also quite a bunch of missing commas and incorrect hyphenation.
still reads pretty good all in all though
