Hajime, being the old fart that he is, still believes in asking for fatherly permission to marry his lover.. Takeo is shocked anyone would WANT to marry his youngest son. ^^;
Second expression of worry/relief not related to the shocked one--it's his reaction to Hyousuke's progress through his rite of passage trial. Stern as he is, he does care for the son that is more like him than either care to admit. D'awww..
