Just let that postcard never be sent...
Can this selfish wish come true?
After enjoying a sumptuous dinner full of exotic flavors, a special car took them to a hot spring on the outskirts of the city.
Hokkaido's hot springs are the most famous. Legend has it that the spring water here contains a variety of mineral factors, which can not only cure people's fatigue and slow down aging, but also strengthen the body and even extend life.
The car drove all the way to the west. Huanyan saw that the small mountain peaks next to it were covered with snow. She couldn't help but asked worriedly: "It's so cold and it's snowing. Why don't you soak in a hot spring and get frozen?"
"Fool! Little bumpkin, you will know when the time comes!"
He was dubiously held by Situ Chenjue's hand, and Huanyan followed him to an antique, small courtyard.
There are two pine trees and two stone lanterns at the entrance of the courtyard.
Huanyan looked at the house that looked less than a hundred square meters in surprise: "There...is a hot spring here? This house is so small, where is the hot spring hidden?"
"Little fool, follow me, my husband won't lie to you!" Situ Chenjue smiled softly and led her in.
————————————————————————————————————————————
The house is very clean, and although it is not luxurious, it has a quaint atmosphere.
Huanyan looked around and her heart became quiet involuntarily.
There are light yellow paper lanterns hanging on the window lattice, with patterns depicting the scenery of the four seasons on them. Two clay vases are placed at the door.
The plum blossoms in the vase exude a light fragrance.
Next to her, an elderly and elegant woman was quietly playing with her shamisen.
Huanyan knew that this was a unique Japanese women's musical instrument.
The sound was somewhat similar to the Chinese erhu, but it had more of a female pathos flavor, which made Huanyan mesmerized.
The proprietress in her forties came out and said in non-standard Chinese: "Excuse me, are they Mr. and Mrs. Situ?"
"Yes!" Situ Chenjue nodded.
The proprietress smiled attentively and said: "Then, let us change clothes! Then we will take you to the hot spring!"
Huanyan glanced at Situ Chenjue with some reluctance. The two had been holding hands since they came to Japan. Now, even though they were being taken to change clothes, her heart was full of insecurity.
This deer-like look of dependence made Situ Chenjue feel filled with a sense of accomplishment.
He rubbed her hair: "Okay, little thing, my husband won't disappear! See you in the pool later!"
"Ah? Are there no distinctions between men and women in hot springs?" Huanyan was really surprised this time.
When she went to hot springs in China, the higher-end hot springs were divided into men and women.
Next to me, the proprietress who understood a little Chinese smiled and said with gestures: "It's okay, madam, don't you want to soak in the pool with your most beloved person, enjoy the beautiful scenery of the snow-capped mountains, drink wine, and enjoy this moment?
The feeling of life?”
Huanyan smiled shyly, nodded, and walked inside.
A slightly younger girl put her into a bathrobe. After changing her clothes, Huanyan stood in front of the mirror and couldn't help but froze.
I originally thought that this place was not big and would not be very high-end.
Just like a domestic bathtub, it is just made of the simplest towel cloth.
But she didn't expect that what she was wearing was entirely made of silk. The moon-white base had fine silk threads and pieces of cherry blossoms embroidered on it.
