There is a fragrant aroma wafting from the kitchen, and the rain outside the window becomes lighter.
The sound of a wood saw came from the side room of the living room. It was my father who was processing wooden materials. As the only carpenter in the town, he was making things when he was not working in the fields. This was also the main source of the family's expenses.
My father once wanted to be a swordsman.
When Minamoto norimitsu was forced to practice martial arts by his father as a child, he was taken to the vegetable field in the west of the town. He took two sojin made by his father himself and told himself the family history and the past family history with a serious look on his face.
The former glory of the Wu family was still there, and a sense of solemnity and heaviness hit my face.
The broad and tall back is still very clear in my memory.
The original person in the memory was also a little emotional.
He even secretly made up his mind to become an excellent swordsman.
Until the moment when my father waved Su Zhen.
Minamoto Yorimitsu still couldn't calm down his heart.
But when I followed the memories that had been buried deep in my heart, I saw a tall figure wielding Suzhen in the vegetable field. The sword was awe-inspiring and accompanied by a powerful shout.
He didn't put the sword away until half an hour later.
Under the setting sun, my father's back gradually became lonely.
The broken branches and willows of half an acre of rapeseed flowers showed their miserable condition.
"Honey, I'm hungry!!!"
It wasn't until his father came back from the side room cheerfully and opened his mouth to ask his wife for food that he finally recovered from his memories and realized that a man like a god would also end his life and become an obedient and well-behaved wife slave.
, and at the same time, he heard his mother’s call, asking him to go upstairs and ask Xiao Teng to eat.
Minamoto Yorimitsu rubbed the cat's head angrily.
The round-faced civet cat lying on the sofa meowed twice dissatisfiedly.
Then he lazily licked his pink paws a few times.
He went upstairs and knocked on the door of Sakichu Koto's room, and soon saw a familiar figure with her head drooped. Minamoto no Yorimitsu wanted to say something, but she seemed to be in an inexplicable mood, and for a while she squinted her eyes and said nothing.
And Sakichu Koto just silently followed him downstairs, covering her face with her long bangs as usual, and seemed to have no intention of speaking.
According to Minamoto no Yorimitsu's understanding of this little girl, I'm afraid there's so much going on in his mind, so it's probably the best thing to do if he doesn't explain it himself.
After all, she was also present when Sister Shuangyi came to visit.
Dealing with feelings is really difficult...
Minamoto Yorimitsu suddenly wanted to go to work again.
There is no pressure when you are with good sisters. You don’t need to worry about doing too much, and you can enjoy the ultimate understanding. Don’t worry about what you are thinking, at least you are really good to yourself.
Soon the dishes, bowls and chopsticks were placed on the table again. Today's food was more sumptuous than yesterday, but the atmosphere didn't seem to be as open as when it first arrived. At least Minamoto Yorimitsu and his mother could feel it.
Especially Sakichu and Koto sat there with their little lips pursed and said nothing.
He lowered his head and ate silently, still looking a little gloomy.
The atmosphere was a little awkward.
Until Minamoto no Yorimitsu spoke.
"Are you leaving tomorrow?"
After hearing her son say that he was leaving tomorrow, Chiyo Naoko was stunned for a moment and asked.
"I just received a notice from the school's academic affairs teacher. I have to hand in the proposal report for my graduation thesis tomorrow. I'm afraid I won't be able to help my family."
Minamoto Yorimitsu also received the information just now. The proposal report for the graduation thesis has to be handed in, and this must be done in person.
In fact, I originally planned to stay at home for two days.
I helped my parents do some farm work as a break, but it rained and something unexpected happened, so it was basically delayed.
"What kind of work are you doing? I was just joking with you, why do you kid take it seriously? There is no reason to let students do work."
Chiyo Naoko stared, not quite understanding the so-called proposal report, but since it was a matter within the school, of course she fully supported it.
"He is already twenty-two this year."
Genki Ichiro said in a low voice while holding the rice bowl.
"You're still forty-two!"
Chiyo Naoko immediately refuted her husband, and the family throne was revealed again.
In an instant, my father was so frightened that he buried his face in the basin.
Then she looked at Minamoto Norimitsu, maybe because she was afraid that he would blame himself for this matter, so she explained softly: "Harvesting corn is not like harvesting wheat in summer. You can just use a machine. In fact, it is just some chores."
"You can hire someone if necessary. The family is not short of money, as long as you and your father don't get too tired." Minamoto norimitsu suggested after thinking for a while.
In fact, the income from farming is too meager, and this has not changed even in Japan.
Unless your family has connections with the farmers' association and can apply for special subsidies, it will be in vain.
He once thought about letting his parents stop working.
But this idea quickly disappeared.
When children first become sensible, they will advise their parents not to work because they feel distressed and too tired.
But this distress often comes with compulsion.
If you are more sensible, you will gently persuade your parents to do easy things. Even if you don't like it, as long as it is easy and not tiring, it is still very subjective.
Children who really grow up.
He will only smile and help when his parents want to do something.
Even if you have the ability to change the status quo, as long as the old man is happy, it is much better than being so tired.
It was obvious that his parents were still in their prime, and the power of the family had not been entrusted to him. Soon his father expressed his dissatisfaction.
"Who are you hiring? Did all your money come from the strong wind?"
"Don't you understand that it's not easy to make money? You may have made a lot of money by doing something now, but I don't believe that you didn't work hard! I'm still strong, so I don't need to pity you!"
"Although you say it's easy to make money, you must have suffered a lot!"
Genki Ichiro's expression changed from being angry at first to loudly stating that he was not old. His eyes even showed some sympathy for him. He patted his shoulder with some emotion, as if he said "I understand you best".
However, Minamoto Yorimitsu remained silent.
Because he didn't know how to answer.
This money is really about the same as what a strong wind brings.
Working hard to deal with green tea?
To put it this way, it really cost a lot.
After all, it’s a big business worth over a billion dollars at a time.
To be honest, it's quite laborious.
Compared to Genki Ichiro who started to lose his temper again, Chiyo Naoko was thinking about him going back and said with a concerned expression on her face:
"I'll go down to the fields and break some corn for you later. You can take it back and cook it yourself. The food at home is still better than outside."
After a pause, she looked to the side with a smile: "By the way, I'll bring some back to Xiao Teng."
Sakichu Xiaodeng, who was eating silently, was suddenly called upon. After being stunned for a moment, he raised his head and looked around, whispered his thanks and then buried his head in silence.
This response is obviously not as positive as before.
"Then I'll go with you later."
Minamoto Yorimitsu's gaze moved from her face to the window.
The rain outside has almost stopped.
If he wanted to go to the ground, he would probably have to go barefoot. Of course, he couldn't let his mother go by herself. It happened that he also missed the touch of the soil.
But my mother’s focus was not on corn.
She put down her chopsticks, coughed and suddenly changed the subject and said, "Xiao Teng, you are not young anymore. In fact, you can also decide on your marriage. After all, you are already in your twenties."
"I listened to Mr. Guang..."
Sakichu Xiaoteng was stunned for a moment when he heard this, a blush rose silently on his cheeks, and then he whispered again.
"Is there any problem with the elders in the family?"
Chiyo Naoko quickly asked.
"Grandma respects my decision."
Sakichu Koto hesitated and said.
"That's good, that's good."
Chiyo Naoko moved her gaze to the side: "What about you, Aguang?"
She winked at Minamoto Yorimitsu several times.
It's like saying with your eyes that your mother has done what needs to be done and what needs to be said, and then you have to let you make the final decision and win it while the iron is hot, ending all the last worries she and her husband had about Minamoto Yorimitsu for so many years.
However, the answer given by Minamoto Yorimitsu was not satisfactory.
"Let's wait and see."
Minamoto Yorimitsu pondered for a moment and said: "I feel that the time I have been dating Xiaoteng is too short, and there are still many things we are not familiar with. At least we have to wait until we accept each other's shortcomings before we talk about marriage."
"Ah, yes, I'm a little impatient."
Chiyo Naoko's expression was slightly stagnant for a moment after hearing this. She looked at Koto's eyes that were getting darker, coughed twice and tried to smooth things over with a smile:
"It's true that you have just been dating for a short time, and I'm afraid you are not very familiar with each other. It would be better to learn more and see more."
"You should also exercise more at night to promote your relationship."
Although I said this to adjust the atmosphere.
But Chiyo Naoko clearly felt that Sakichu Koto's mood was even lower. She couldn't help but cast her eyes on her son's face who was eating, and she couldn't help but sigh a little when she looked at that calm face.
Although she could tell that Sakichu and Koto liked Aguang very much.
Likeability and other negative emotions can coexist.
