Chapter 9 Sanae's Day
"Saemai Jiang is your salary this week, it's really hard~~" Saemai, who just finished working in a bakery and reorganized his clothes and was about to leave, received an envelope and a plastic bag full of bread from his store manager. "And this is the bread left in the store today. If you don't mind, please take it. "
"Hey? Is it really OK?" It was said that it was the remaining one, but it should be the product I just took off from the shelves. Saeona, who knew this, was full of gratitude for the kindness of his store manager.
"What's wrong with it? Saemai Jiang works so hard and looks so beautiful~~" The shop owner seemed to have expected Saemai's refusal, so he put the bag in his hand slightly tough, "If you mind, please continue to work in the future. I always feel that Saemai Jiang is an indispensable member of my store~~"
"Thank you very much. I will continue to work hard!" Seeing that the other party had made up his mind, Saemi simply stopped refusing to hold the bag the other party stuffed to her and bowed deeply, and then said, "If nothing happens, I will say goodbye first. I will see Miss Fukukawa tomorrow~~"
"Yeah, 1, 2, 3...a total of 15,000 yen~~" Since leaving the place where he worked, Saeh was impatient to withdraw his salary from the envelope and count it carefully, "If this happens, it will be 60,000 yen in a month~~"
This salary is definitely considerable for students who can only use their spare time to work, not to mention that the work in the bakery is very easy. As the store manager, Miss Fukukawa is also quite charming, Saeno felt that she really had nothing to be picky about.`
"And there is also the bread given by Miss Fukukawa~~The bread in the store has always been delicious!" For Miss Saeko, who is currently very tight at the moment, bread is a very luxurious dessert... And for girls, desserts are simply part of their lives, aren't they~~
"But if you get a salary today, it's a rare luxury!" Holding her labor income for the past few days in her hand, Saeko thought happily, "So what should I eat tonight? Make some potato stew. I remember that the potatoes behind the yard are about to be cooked. By the way, should I buy some sugar and come back? If she is dedicated to Lord Suwako, she will definitely like it...or do you want to buy some wine?"
When thinking about this, Miss Saenae can always inadvertently show an enviable and happy smile. Even compared to her peers, she lives a little hard life now. She not only has to run a somewhat abandoned shrine alone, but also has to work on the premise of completing her studies. She doesn’t have many friends. She has almost no chance to go out for a date with a boy... But Saenae feels that she is still very happy and always believes in this!
"But if Lord Kanako doesn't always steal wine, it would be even better if Lord Suwako wouldn't make some incredible food..." When she thought of two gods enshrined by her own Kanshiri for generations, Saena, who was very happy just now, couldn't help but change into a slightly distressed expression. It was a bit like a mother who returned home and saw her child messing up her body.`
But this is just a little complaint. Isn’t it that two gods who always looked after me and my companionship when I was lonely and helpless? They were obviously noble gods, but after getting along well with each other, they unexpectedly got along well. This is something that I... or something that even the witches of the Moya Shrine in the past dynasties had never expected.
"But by the way, I am Feng Zhu now. According to Shintoism, it should be... it's... it's very powerful anyway!" Of course, now that the gods have become extremely weak, Feng Zhu is not much different from ordinary people. For Saena, what she can do now is to condense about a cup of water out of thin air or to allow vegetables grown in her backyard to avoid pests and diseases. Such ability is completely better than nothing. From a certain perspective, it may be less mysterious than those street tricks.
Fortunately, Saeona didn't care about this. Anyway, no matter whether she had these abilities or not, the two gods were her closest family members, right? Although Gods have become less and less worried recently...
Saemi, who was slightly distressed, sighed lightly, then threw away all these meaningless ideas and cheered up to prepare for purchases. By the way, what is the special offer today?
————————————————————
Holding two large bags of things in my hand, Saenae was walking to his own shrine while recalling the products he bought in his mind, "I bought beef. I also bought the special green pepper and celery today. I bought 3 bananas and I could share them with Kanako and the others. If I had wine... I only bought a little one. Fortunately, the uncle who sold the wine knew me..."
In theory, wine cannot be purchased under 20 years old. However, the Saemi family runs a shrine after all. God knows when the tradition of using wine to worship gods has been regarded as a tradition. Therefore, as long as it is a familiar shop, Saemi can still buy some wine from there... but in terms of quantity, it is completely impossible to compare with those adults.
But Saemi doesn't have that much money to buy a lot of money anyway.
He had to climb up the long steps to reach the place where Moya Shrine was located, but this did not seem too laborious for Saeno, who was just 14 years old this year. Perhaps this is also a privilege for the gods. In short, Saeno has never been sick since early and has been in good health.
The shrine is built on the mountain. Although I heard that the influence of the Moya Shrine was quite large many years ago, the shrine of Sanae has never seemed very grand since her memory. It was just an ordinary, small and slightly dilapidated shrine. It was no significant difference from the other ones that Sanae had been to, and it was even worse than the scale... Although it still seemed a bit too empty for the little girl who lived alone.
If the only difference is that Saemi had only seen the gods in her own shrine, and I don’t know if the rest are unwilling to let her see or other reasons. In short, Saemi had never seen the other gods.
According to Lord Kanako, most of them have disappeared... Can even the gods disappear? Originally, Saeko didn't believe it. But when she saw the weakness of her god, she had to worry about it.
"Why did you suddenly think of this?!" Saemi, who was climbing the stairs, shook her head suddenly and tried to drive these unlucky thoughts out of her mind, but the more she did this, the deeper the thought became in her heart, as if she had taken root and became a fact.
The more uneasy, Saeko speeded up her pace, almost trotting over the last few steps, then hurriedly put down what she had in her hand and ran to the place where the gods were worshipped behind the shrine. Then, until she suddenly heard the laughter of Kanako coming from there, this feeling disappeared.
"I'm really stupid too...Don't Lord Kanako and I maintain a connection of faith at all times..." Saeonae, who gradually recovered from her heart, tapped her forehead with a small fist and regarded it as a punishment for making a big deal of herself, but since she's here, just go in and take a look.
There were only three people in the entire shrine including the two gods, so for sure, there was no forbidden area for Saeko, even where the gods lived. So, without even knocking on the door, she pulled the door open. Just based on the smell of wine from inside, the little girl guessed that her god must be there drinking wine and watching TV while doing nothing...
But what I never expected was that Saemiya only guessed halfway. As the door was pulled open, Saemiya was extremely surprised. In addition to the two gods in her family, there was a boy with a head full of gold and delicate appearance that was not like a human...?
