ぷち・ザ・ビーンズ  “虹の生まれる場所に” by  Yukino Sai
Petit The Beans “The place rainbows are born”

The info is gathered from various Japanese blogs, so I don’t know how accurate it is...

The story takes place when Shuurei temporarily is back from

Kurou as Shuurei's first love when she was young? I've never heard that angle before....

I don't know, but the scene with Kurou spoon-feeding a grown Shuurei is just not right...LOL

Yes..I think Shuurei should marry Seiran XD

[wanlily]

I guess she fell for the nice young man who used to peel and feed her clementines? And grated frozen apples too, apparently. But she should totally marry Seiran! I wish I could read the original, because Seiran's reaction is supposed to be really funny...

Thanks for the summaries!

Both of these cracked me up. XD The idea of Reishin, Yuushin and Honju peering in through one window (how could they all fit? Maybe only Reishin and Honju looked and Yuushin just kept them company) and Seiren and Ryuuki peering in through another...and Seiran getting jealous. Shuurei is surrounded by so many obstacles!

I also like the idea of the three brothers drinking tea and being soothed (Reishin at least) by Shuurei's ehru.

"Kou Shou" probably didn't have any problems becoming an official. ^^; The idea of Ryuuki being married off is too funny. (He looked good as a girl! *remembering the cross-dressing comic* Hard to imagine what Seiran would look like as one...)

She uses her skills (to get money) to keep the Kou family out of the poor house.

That just...sounds wrong. -_-

HAHAHAHA OMG this must be some fan-made crack??! either way I LOVE IT!
thanks for the translations

[wanlily]

Nope, this is genuine Yukino Sai crack!

[toriru4ever]

*giggles* awesomeness!
awww I'd find it hard that she wouldn't at some point have had a crush on Seiran (how can anyone resist? :3)
I love Reishin's reaction lol (hentai no ojisan!!!).
It's sad that the anime doesn't support more seiran x shuurei while the drama cd and crack!novel side story clearly shows he doesn't like sharing Shuurei with others :D

[wanlily]

I know! We definitely need more Seiran x Shuurei stuff in the anime. I can just picture Seiran's shocked face when he finds out that he wasn't her first love. I doubt learning that he was her 2nd love comforted him any... And I can imagine the burning fury Reishin felt upon learning that Kurou was Shuurei's first love =P Hentai no ojisan indeed!

Thank you so much for posting this! I can't wait till someone gets their hands on the pictures so we can see Seiran's face--and Reishin's face--and Ryuuki as a shoujo heroine! That just cracks me up.

I'm so flummoxed, though. Usually I can make at least a reasonable guess at who the author means the heroine to fall in love with, but SaiMono is all over the place. I can't even decide who to root for.

Unfortunately, these aren't illustrated :(

[vesperh]

Ah! I'm crushed! Well, I'll just have to use my imagination. ;-)
