697, summer, four sisters, very beautiful, a house...
...
"You can't repair it! You're careless!"
Nagayama Naoki looked at the newspaper reports and complained very unhappily.
Yesterday when I was doing the interview, I was already taking precautions. When I read the morning paper, I thought it was just a report on the movie.
Naoki Nagayama, who is well aware of the neon media’s exaggeration of urine, won’t pay much attention to things like claiming to win the Palme d’Or at the Oscars...
But I didn't expect that two newspapers would actually focus their attention on other places!
"Flower Naoki responds to airship birthday celebration: The matter is over~", "Romantic Naoki: Isn't it just an airship, it's no big deal!" Both reports intercepted a reply from yesterday's interview, saying that although they did not admit it directly
, but the airship incident has been confirmed with a high probability to be initiated by Naoki Nagayama...
"Sure enough, when facing these media, you can't be careless even for a minute!" Nagayama Naoki complained while viciously biting the sandwich in his hand.
However, Nagayama Naoki is actually not too worried about the impact of this kind of entertainment reports. There are so many entertainment news that are caught in the wind and shadows, and it has been a long time since Akina’s birthday celebration~
After breakfast, Naoki Nagayama stayed at home for the first time in a long time. Tomorrow he would start shooting for more than a month, and he wanted to take advantage of this last weekend to be decadent.
The weather outside has risen to 29℃. After the sun is higher than the office building, the entire environment begins to become hot and dry...
Even Taro no longer played around in the yard, and huddled in the living room to escape the summer heat with his owner. As for Meow Taro... this orange cat was very comfortable, lying on the marble windowsill, cool and comfortable.
xYou can enjoy the beautiful scenery outside.....
"Don't lean against me...it's very hot...and it's blocking the electric fan."
The air conditioner hadn't been turned on yet, and a big dog weighing 50 to 60 pounds was just like a stove. Naoki Nagayama moved the dog to the side with his feet in disgust, and finally let the desktop fan placed on the ground blow the air.
A gust of lukewarm wind.
He had finished reading the thick "One Hundred Years of Solitude" before. Naoki Nagayama was leaning on the sofa with Chekhov's "The Cherry Orchard" and reading how comedy should be created, even though he had "The Summer of Kikujiro" in his head.
All the pictures still need to be precipitated before they can be truly photographed.
I don’t know when it started, but several cicada chirps came from far outside the window, seeming to announce the arrival of midsummer to the world...
Under the blazing sunshine, there were several children on summer vacation, wearing sandals and shorts, running quickly across the street.
Beads of sweat fell from time to time on the already darkened cheeks and shoulders, but they were just wiped off with hands, and the cheerful laughter seemed as if the hot weather did not exist at all.
Only in childhood can we have such pure joy.
Yotaro seemed to be attracted by the movement outside. He raised his head and looked outside... Naoki Nagayama also raised his eyes from the book.
"It's summer vacation...the hottest month...Children are on vacation on such a hot day, but I have to work under the sun from tomorrow..." Nagayama Naoki sighed
After taking a breath, I suddenly saw Yutaro looking at me...and then I discovered something important!
"By the way, Yotaro, what are you going to do!" He turned around and looked at Meowtaro again, "There's Meowtaro too!"
The filming period is almost over a month, and I definitely can’t keep an eye on the cats and dogs all the time, and the weather is so hot... I wouldn’t worry if I asked someone to watch or foster them...
"Woof woof!"
Taro didn't understand what his master was worried about, so he just came over and stuck out his tongue, his square face full of concern for his master.
Nagayama Naoki touched the dog's head and thought for a moment...
Why not let mother take care of it?!
Anyway, the eldest brother in my hometown has moved out now, so the house should be very cold!
Mother also likes Taro Taro~
After thinking of the method, Naoki Nagayama didn't worry too much and called his home directly, but no one answered...
"Forget it, we'll talk about it after we get back~"
Seeing that it was almost noon, and if he delayed any longer, he would not be able to come back in the evening, Naoki Nagayama quickly packed the food for the cat and the dog, and then put Mew Taro into the cat bag, while Taro sat directly in the passenger seat of the Toyota Century.
.
Then he stepped on the accelerator and drove towards Shizuoka.
........
The sun is high in the sky, the sun is shining brightly...
At this time, all the cars on the road were passing by in a hurry, and the entire highway seemed dull and boring.
Yotaro didn't have a chance to stick his head out of the window, because Nagayama Naoki turned on the air conditioner, and the car was cool and comfortable inside, and the Beatles records were still playing.
"Yingtaro, let's have KFC for lunch."
When passing the Aoyama section of the national highway, Nagayama Naoki happened to see the earliest KFC Aoyama store in Tokyo, so he made a move and bought a FamilyMart bucket.
When Taro Taro ate fried chicken, he didn't spit out the bones, but chewed them up and swallowed them in two bites. Naoki Nagayama was like the driver in "Green Book", he was so unhygienic that he threw the bones out of the window.
....
After more than two hours of journey, Nagayama Naoki finally saw the familiar buildings of the seaside town at around 2 p.m.
After the car parked next to the house in a familiar manner, Tarang, who had been eager to try it out, slipped out as soon as the door opened and ran towards the courtyard gate. He had already recognized this place.
Naoki Nagayama, on the other hand, slowly walked over with Nyaotaro's cat bag and two large bags of dog food.
After pushing open the courtyard door, Nagayama Naoki had already seen Yotaro standing next to a lean woman, jumping and rubbing... and making a noise that he hadn't heard for a long time~
"Hey, yo, yo, long time no see, Taro!" Mother Nanako also happily rubbed her dog's head, "You recognize me, right? You miss me too, don't you?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "嘤嘤嘤~嘤嘤~" The dog rubbed his nose against Nagayama Nanako's hand, and was so excited that his stubby tail flicked out the afterimage.
"Mother~" Nagayama Naoki called out and said with a smile, "Yutaro is more excited to see you than to see me~"
"Of course, I am so good to Taro Ying!"
Nanako Nagayama answered matter-of-factly, Naoki Nagayama had kept his dog in his hometown several times, and every time he brought him back, he had gained a lot of weight.
Seeing Naoki Nagayama still carrying a few bags, Nanako Nagayama quickly let him into the house while still saying:
"I just heard the message when I came back from Aoki at noon. I want to leave Nyaotarou at home this time, right?"
"Hey, it's really troublesome~" Naoki Nagayama put away his bag and took the lemonade from his mother with a smile, "Because I have to shoot outside for more than a month in August..."
"Stay with the tape, I just feel like the house is a little quieter..."
Even the youngest daughter has left home to study in college, and her father, Takeru Nagayama, usually doesn't come back until after nine o'clock in the evening. The house where a family of five originally lived is indeed a bit empty.
"Now that I have some free time, mother can also keep a pet or something." Nagayama Naoki suggested.
"Let's talk about it..." Nagayama Nanako seemed to be a little moved, "Now I often go to see the weeds, but I might not be completely free."
The convenience of raising children in neon comes after the decline in birthrates. For now, taking care of children still relies on relatives. As a grandmother, it is also a responsibility of the mother to help take care of her eldest grandson.
"How are the weeds doing now?" Naoki Nagayama asked.
"Ah, the weeds are so lively now!" Mother Nanako showed a smile on her face, "Now you can call me mom and dad..."
"Haha, you should be able to walk soon, right?"
"That will probably have to wait until the end of the year." My mother said, "But now I can crawl everywhere, always crawling on the floor."
"Sure enough, children grow up fast~"
I was born in November last year and am now 8 months old.
Nagayama Nanako also talked about the current situation of her father Nagayama Takeru and her eldest brother Nagayama Aoki who are staying in their hometown. Her father runs the izakaya with all his heart. After the child was born, the eldest brother worked more seriously in the izakaya...
The family had previously taken out a loan to buy an apartment in Tokyo and still needed to repay the loan. The eldest brother Aoki also had to earn money for milk powder for his children, which made the financial situation a bit tense.
"Mom, if there is any difficulty at home, I..." Naoki Nagayama was about to say that he could help subsidize the family.
"No! No need! Your father and your eldest brother are both adults, the backbone of the family... they can still endure this hard work." Nagayama Nanako firmly refused, "You are already living independently.
, helping my underage sister pay her tuition and rent for living in Tokyo, which is already a great help to the family."
"Actually, there is no need to be so polite... Mother... I can say that I am very rich now..."
"Your money is all your own!" Mother Nanako said, "Your father and eldest brother are healthy adults and can make their own money... If Tsuruko was not still in school, you shouldn't have anything to do with her.
of!"
Naoki Nagayama lamented that some people's family members always want to suck blood, but their own people don't even need help.
Looking at his mother's very serious expression, Nagayama Naoki could only nod: "...Okay."
However, I still have an idea planted in my mind. It will take two or three years for the value of apartments in Tokyo to increase. During this period, the family should generate more income.
Overlooking these things, her mother Nanako suddenly laughed:
"Naoki, there have been a lot of things about you recently! Airships and other things..."
"...Does mother also know..." Naoki Nagayama felt a little embarrassed.
"Yes, I saw the newspaper again this morning." Nagayama Nanako was like an ordinary curious old lady at this time, "But she is always secretive..."
"Haha, underground love...that's what celebrity love is like~" Nagayama Naoki smiled awkwardly, and quickly diverted the trouble, "Mom, did you know? Tsuruko is also in love!"
"Eh?!"
Sure enough, the mother's interest suddenly shifted from Naoki Nagayama to her daughter. After all, one was an adult and independent boy, while the other was a little daughter who was still studying. What surprised her even more was that Naoki Nagayama was actually better than Naoki Nagayama.
It’s too early to know!!!
"When? With whom?"
My daughter has grown up! She is no longer considerate!
"My boyfriend is one of her seniors," Naoki Nagayama said, "from the same school."
"Naoki, how did you know?!"
"I met him when I went to see Tsuruko~"
"They actually already live together?!!"
"...This should not happen yet..."
At this moment, Tsuruko Nagayama, who was shopping in Ikebukuro, Tokyo, couldn't help but sneeze several times!
Ishii Junsui next to him asked with concern: "Tsuruko-chan, do you have a cold?"
"No..." Tsuruko wiped his nose, "I always feel like someone is talking about me. Someone must be talking bad about me!"
"..."
........
After chatting with her mother for more than two hours in her hometown, Nanako Nagayama thought about quickly making dinner for Naoki Nagayama after learning that she would start filming tomorrow and then rush back to Tokyo tonight.
Let’s talk about it later.
"Mom, no need... I ate a lot of fried chicken on the road at noon, and I'm still full!"
"But isn't that for lunch? At your age, aren't you hungry now?"
"High fat, difficult to digest..." Nagayama Naoki said with a smile, "I can just eat some fruit at night."
Speaking of this, Nagayama Nanako suddenly thought of it: "Ah, by the way, the neighbor just sent over the freshly picked fruit..."
As he spoke, he took out a basket from the kitchen, which contained a variety of red and green vegetables and fruits:
"The cucumber is very refreshing and crisp, and the tomatoes are also sour and sweet... Do you want to eat Naoki?"
I ate something heavy with oil at noon, and now when I heard the crisp cucumber and the sweet and sour tomato, Nagayama Naoki suddenly felt that his mouth was very dry, and he wanted to eat some of this.
So I stood up immediately and walked to the kitchen. My mother happened to take a plastic basin and wash vegetables under the faucet on the window sill...
"Naoki, why are you here?" Mother Nanako was a little surprised to see Naoki Nagayama enter the kitchen, "I'll wash it and bring it in for you later."
"It's okay...I feel like eating it after I heard it." Naoki Nagayama said while looking at the fruits and vegetables in the pool.
"Yes, my neighbor picked it from the farm in the suburbs. I heard that her relatives' three sisters are in the farm..." the mother said nonchalantly.
"Are girls growing vegetables?"
"Of course not, I came here to escape the heat!"
"That's it..." Nagayama Naoki picked up the cucumber in the basin and took a bite. Sure enough, the cold and refreshing feeling rushed from his mouth to his stomach, and then spread throughout his head, "It's really crispy and refreshing."
~”
“It’s very fresh~”
Mother is still washing other fruits and vegetables.
The clear and transparent water washes away the fruits and vegetables in the basin, washing away the dust on the surface. Under the bright skylight outside the window, the green ones appear blue and the red ones are more brilliant. The water droplets on the fruits and vegetables seem to reflect light and are sparkling~
“The cucumbers and tomatoes are very fresh~”
The colors are so bright that they look like something you see in an anime...
A tomato was placed on the cutting board. The stainless steel kitchen knife skillfully cut off the hard stems and cut the tomato into several small pieces...
In summer, bright fruits and vegetables, washed, tomatoes, sliced... Such a familiar scene suddenly reminded Nagayama Naoki of the animation scenes that impressed him deeply in his previous life...
The memory images surging in the subconscious are vague, people picking fruits and vegetables, cleaning in the kitchen... Hayao Miyazaki's animation...
Nagayama Naoki has almost remembered the name of this movie...it should be My Neighbor Totoro!
But at this moment, her mother Nanako suddenly said something: "The three daughters of the neighbor's relatives are all adults. It seems that Naoki has seen..."
"See it?"
Nagayama Naoki subconsciously answered, and suddenly recalled that he seemed to have seen them here visiting neighbors during the Chinese New Year...a mature elder sister, an urban girl, and a school girl.
My little sister...
For a moment, the memory of "My Neighbor Totoro" dissipated, and the subconscious surge mixed with the newly emerged picture, making my head a little confused...
Once the recollection begins, there is always something to remember.
Just like searching for similar keywords, similar pictures begin to appear...
Summer, hot, three sisters...
Several particularly impressive faces began to emerge from my memory...
In summer, four very good-looking sisters gathered in a house dressed in cool clothes...
Which man who has watched a movie like this is not impressed?!
In addition to the four beauties, Naoki Nagayama also had the plot of "Umijie Diary" in his mind, the beautiful pictures, the beauty of Kamakura...the beautiful movie was completely recalled like a picture scroll!
But that’s not right. Didn’t I recall this movie before?! Why did it pop up again this time?
Nagayama Naoki felt that his head was very heavy, and for a while he couldn't think carefully about the difference between the memories that poured into his mind.
"Naoki?" Mother Nanako asked a little worriedly, "What's wrong with you?"
"Huh?" Naoki Nagayama looked at his mother in confusion.
"It seemed like I suddenly lost my mind just now. I called twice but didn't answer..."
"Ah...I just suddenly got some movie inspiration..."
Having had so many experiences, Naoki Nagayama also had some control over the memories that suddenly appeared. He took a few deep breaths to calm down and tried not to touch the memories in his mind.
After speaking, he took some fruits and vegetables and said to his mother:
"Mom, I ate these on the road...I suddenly thought of something and I have to go back to Tokyo to deal with it."
"Huh? Are you in such a hurry?" Nagayama Nanako said in shock, "Why don't you go back after you finish eating?"
"No, we have to shoot tomorrow." Nagayama Naoki knew that the script of the movie had to be written and he might have to stay up late tonight. "If I go back and deal with it now, I can barely catch up."
"I see..." Seeing her second son's anxious look, Nanako Nagayama said nothing more, "Be careful on the road."
"Hi... say hello to my father and brother for me." Nagayama Naoki hurriedly put on his shoes and walked towards the parked car, preparing to rush back to Tokyo. "By the way, during this filming,
We will pass by Shizuoka for filming...
When the time comes, I will come over to see Taro and the others... Mother can also come over to visit the class!"
"That's great~"
"Then, mother, I will take my leave now~"
In the eyes of Taro Taro and his mother, the black Toyota Century quickly drove away from the small coastal town.
Nagayama Nanako looked at Taro Taro and touched his square head:
"Yingtaro, you and I are the only ones left..."
"Woof!" The dog wagged its tail and grinned, looking very happy.
"What do you want for dinner? Dog food or meat bones?" Nagayama Nanako said fondly, "I still have some big bones I bought before."
"Meow!!!"
At this moment, a shrill cat howl came from inside the cat bag...
In order to avoid Meowtaro's stress, the catnip Naoki Nagayama fed has finally expired!
