The next day, Shizuo Komemon was woken up by the banging on the door. He opened his eyes in a daze, and it was his room.
In order to avoid accidentally punching or something while dreaming, he had never dared to sleep with Ayako, so he spent most of the night last night and finally went back to his room despite being sleepy.
"It's so late, why aren't you ready yet?" There was a whirring sound from the garden outside.
Ayako quickly motioned for her to lower her voice, "Jing-kun hasn't woken up yet. If he is woken up and is angry about getting up, I won't save you then."
"Huh, Ah Zhen will save me." Yuanzi put his hands on his hips, looking confident.
At this time, Komemon Shizuo pulled on his slippers and opened the door, leaned on the door frame and said lazily: "Can you ask if Kyogoku is sure that he can save you from my hands?"
"..." Yuanzi puffed out his cheeks and muttered, "Just wait, sooner or later Ah Zhen will knock you down, and when the time comes I will give you all those brains out."
"Want to have breakfast together?" Ayako pinched her cheek in a funny way.
"Yes! If you don't want to eat, you won't get it for free!" Yuanzi sat down very enthusiastically.
"Go and call Kyogoku-kun. We've done a lot today. We can set off after eating." Ayako said with a smile.
Sonoko immediately got up and ran to the next door. Shizuo Komemon walked up behind Ayako, gently put his arm around her waist, and smelled the aroma of the food.
"Go and wash up quickly. You'll be fine soon." Ayako patted his arm gently with her backhand.
"Yeah." Shizuo Komemon turned around, yawned, and went into the bathroom.
After breakfast, the four of us set off. Our destination was Shizuoka Prefecture, where Izu Beach we went last time was also there, so we were actually going back to Kyogoku’s real hometown.
But Kyogoku is really a martial arts fanatic. If you ask him about martial arts schools in various places, he can tell you one, two, three.
Ask him about Izu's specialties. Because of his family's business, he can tell you something, but don't expect anything else.
I have never heard of colorful palaces in the water.
"Actually, I visited Grandmaster Aonoki before and stayed here for a while to learn tea ceremony. However, I didn't stay too long and went to visit other masters." Ayako said on the way.
"That's right, my sister is someone who has practiced flower wedding practice! And it's not the ordinary flower wedding practice~" Yuanzi looked proud, as if she had practiced it herself.
Huayuan practice is the practice of the bride. The groom is called Huayuan, and the bride is called Huayuan.
"Speaking of which, what do you need to learn to practice Hanayō?" Shizuo Komemon asked curiously.
Ayako smiled reservedly, "Actually, the main content is also common things, such as tea ceremony, flower arrangement, cooking, housework, calligraphy, etiquette, accounting, tailoring, traditional dance, etc."
"It sounds like a lot." Kyogoku sighed with emotion.
"It's really hard work." Shizuo Komemon also agreed.
"It's okay. I'm very interested in these things, so I enjoy them." Ayako smiled.
"Huh huh huh~" Yuanzi shook her finger mischievously, "You don't know, right? That flower wedding practitioner has the legendary charioteer skills~"
Komemon Shizuo suddenly looked at Ayako with a strange look, and the latter slapped Sonoko on the forehead angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about? Where did you hear the strange words? How can there be such a thing?"
Yuanzi smiled coquettishly, "I read it online, but I remember my mother also mentioned it. I'm not just talking nonsense."
Ayako sighed, shook her head with a smile, and corrected: "It's about caring for a husband and educating his children, assisting his husband, and educating his children.
That course mainly talks about how to take good care of the husband's daily life, provide him with a comfortable environment, help him eliminate the pressure brought back from the outside, and promote family harmony."
Sonoko stuck out her tongue, "It sounds so boring."
Ayako said with a smile: "Then if you marry Kyogoku-kun in the future, don't you plan to learn these things before then?"
Kyogoku blushed immediately, and Sonoko also felt hot. She turned her head and said, "Marry, marry someone, that kind of thing is too early for me, and why should I learn it?"
That kind of thing?”
Kyogoku nodded very sincerely, "It's okay if you don't learn. It's good for Sonoko to remain innocent like this."
Yuanzi blushed even more and said angrily: "I didn't promise to marry you?"
"Ah?" Kyogoku was really stunned.
Seeing this, Yuanzi explained in a low voice, "We just started dating. It's too early to talk about marriage..."
"I will work hard." Kyogoku said seriously.
"Idiot!" Yuanzi's face became even hotter, "What are you talking about?"
The noise didn't stop all the way until we arrived at the door of Aonoki's house, where it was temporarily quiet for a while.
"Welcome everyone, I've been waiting for you for a long time, please come in." The forty-year-old Hanasaki Yoshiko, the housekeeper of the Aonoki family, opened the door.
"Sorry for disturbing you." Ayako took the lead in returning the greeting.
"It's...Miss Ayako, right?" She only mentioned the number of people visiting beforehand, but Hanasaki Yoshiko actually recognized her.
"I still remember something. When you came here, you seemed to be in your teens. But so many years have passed and you have become even more beautiful."
"Thank you for the award. You were taken care of a lot back then." Ayako didn't look down on the other person because she was just a housekeeper. She was still very polite.
"Anyway, this is my job." Hanazaki Yoshiko smiled kindly and led everyone into the courtyard.
Not far from the gate, you can see a pond included in the private courtyard wall.
"It's so beautiful~" Yuanzi had stars in her eyes.
Ayako held Furumon Shizuo's arm and explained with a smile: "This season is the most beautiful. When the sun shines on the water, it will produce five colors due to different angles, so it is called the colorful underwater palace."
Shizuo Komemon looked up and saw a golden pond surrounded by trees under the sun.
Birds and fish, plants and flowers, cultural buildings, rockeries and strange rocks are all there, and it is extremely quiet. It is indeed a rare scenery.
"Jingjun, Grandmaster Aonoki's temper is rather stubborn. If he says something for a while, don't take it to heart, okay?"
Ayako said and leaned into his ear again, "He is very old and will never be able to block Jing-kun's punch, so let me handle it, okay?"
Shizuo Komemon couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this, "I'm not the kind of unreasonable person, am I?"
"But Grandmaster Aonoki is right." Ayako stuck out her tongue playfully, as if returning here made her regain some of her former liveliness.
Shizuo Komemon looked at the small pink tip of the tongue and almost couldn't help but kiss her on the spot, "I won't meet you in that moment, so as not to embarrass you.
Anyway, I mainly came to see the beautiful scenery. Please show me around in a while. Are there any traces of your past here?"
Ayako tilted her head and recalled it, then suddenly covered her mouth and snickered, "It sounds like there are indeed some, but I haven't been here for many years, so I don't know if they are still there, so I can go look for them with Jingjun."
