A quite young woman, probably in her twenties, with a Shengshan bun, which means she is already married. In modern times, Japanese women, except for some students, get married very early, so she may
Already a mother of several children.
He looks ordinary.
In general sento, the women who do back rubs are not very good-looking. But this hotel is considered mid-range, so the quality of the back rubs is not too bad.
The three of them looked around each other.
Some people are ready to make a move, but don't dare to speak.
"No, thanks."
Although Bai Gui is younger than the two of them, he has definitely experienced more things in the world than the two of them. He has almost reached a state of "nothing outside his heart". He is calmer than the two of them and immediately stopped.
You know, there is a wall between the women's soup area and here.
Whatever you do, you can hear it.
If he comes to the sento alone, that's fine. It's just a matter of how many people are called...
"If you guys have any instructions, just call Ajun, I'll be outside."
The young woman gathered her clothes and bowed, and withdrew without looking unhappy at all.
After getting out of the bath, go to the changing room, where clean robes are available for guests to use.
The three of them also put on their outer robes and walked to a Japanese room.
There is brewed tea in the room for drinking.
Drink tea.
After a while, Mrs. Bai and Bai Xiuzhu also walked in.
After the two of them took a bath, they looked like lotuses emerging from the water, adding a bit of beauty.
"Meihe, I wonder if your family has made an engagement for you?"
Seeing Bai Xiuzhu come in, Bai Xiongqi pondered for a while and asked this question.
Before most people study abroad, their families will prepare for the marriage and make an engagement early. This kind of thing is very common, and he knows about it.
As for his, his parents were doing business in Amei and Ken, so they had no time to make an engagement for him. Anyway, he didn't have to worry about getting married, so they delayed it...
Then I went to Germany and met Mrs. Bai.
Hearing these words, Brother Xun sighed secretly. He was deceived by his mother into returning home last year and completed the engagement.
"I came from a poor family and studied hard, and my family didn't have any spare money for an engagement... so there was no engagement."
Bai Gui replied.
This sentence is half true and half false. Ever since he started the gourd chicken business in Bailu Village, his family has not been short of money. Not to mention that he has been selected as a scholar and has a small three yuan. The threshold is almost crossed by the matchmaker who proposes marriage.
But he never let go.
This is just an excuse. He has never been engaged. He knows about his family affairs, but others may mistakenly think that he has a physical problem.
In fact, he wouldn't be too resistant to things like marriage.
Where can there be any vigorous love? Those are all written in story novels!
Most of them are trivial matters such as firewood, rice, oil, and salt...
The bastard looked right at Mung Bean, and after asking about his family background, character, appearance, etc..., they got married!
The reason why he was unwilling to let go in Bailu Village was that most of the daughters of wealthy families in the countryside had bound feet. Although he would not discriminate against women with bound feet, he was still reluctant to marry her. The second reason was that they had different experiences.
If you don't get together, even if you hire a teacher to teach the Four Books and Five Classics, you can only be regarded as a proficient in writing, and talented women are still very rare...
If they really were childhood sweethearts, they would be nothing more than childhood sweethearts!
Speaking of utilitarianism, Bai Meihe is considered a well-known handsome young man from all over the country. If he wants to marry, he should marry a girl from a well-known family!
"Never engaged?"
Bai Xiongqi smiled and nodded when he heard this. He still admired Bai Gui very much.
However, regarding his sister's marriage, he cannot just settle it casually. Since Bai Meihe has not made an engagement yet, there is no rush. Anyway, he still needs to study abroad for a few years. It is also good to observe for some time.
Don't make a hasty decision.
The conversation was interrupted and the innkeeper served the meal.
One eel rice, one miso soup, and one plate of snacks per person.
The snack is minnow-yaki, which is actually not made from real minnows, but made from flour, sugar, and milk, and is made into minnow-like wagashi, with red bean paste mixed in.
After finishing the meal, it was already approaching dusk.
At this time, when I returned to Tokyo from Minami Izu, I could no longer catch up with the return ferry.
So I stopped at the hotel by the way.
Bai Gui read a book cross-legged for a while, and there was a knock on the door.
"Is this Mr. Bai?"
The young woman named Ajun shouted softly.
"Please come in."
Bai Gui frowned slightly, not knowing what happened to this young woman named Ajun, but out of politeness, he still let her in.
He closed the book.
"When I was in Sentang, I felt that your husband looked like the person my sister mentioned. But Mr. Bai, you kept talking, so I didn't dare to come forward and disturb you. Please forgive me, Mr. Bai..."
Ajun knelt down and sat across from him, quickly bowed and apologized.
"Your sister?"
Bai Gui was surprised. When he came to Japan, he saw a lot of women, but he didn't know many of them. How could he be involved with a young woman from a hotel he stayed in everywhere.
"Yes, it's my sister. Her name is Xunzi. When we were at the Sweet Tea House, she performed the shamisen for you... Later, you gave her ten days of yen, and she told me this story. Her surname is Shiro.
People like this are rare in Japan..."
"What's more, Mr. Bai doesn't have many words..."
"That's why I recognized you."
Ajun explained.
Bai Gui and Bai Xiongqi both have the surname Bai, but there are probably not many people named Bai Meihe in Japan. She has also read the newspaper, but she doesn't usually read newspapers because she doesn't know a few words.
But this is the newspaper Xunzi bought, and he happily showed her the contents in the newspaper...
I didn't read many reports, so I just jotted them down at a glance.
It's also easy to remember.
Ten days' yen was not much, but it was enough for her to go out and grab medicine dozens of times. At this time, the spinning women only had one point and three yen a month. Geishas could have more, but they also had to be exploited by home owners and teahouses.
There aren't many on it.
The ten-day yen was a special gift, so it fell into Xunzi's hands intact.
"So this is ah……"
Bai Gui still had a deep impression on that geisha girl, and it was impossible not to.
His expression softened.
"Xunzi said that you were her benefactor, and she will remember you all her life. Now she is studying at a geisha school in Kyoto. If Mr. Bai has a chance, can he go to Kyoto to meet her..."
"So that she can thank you in person."
Ajun asked cautiously.
Although it is not difficult to find out Bai Gui's residence, it is undoubtedly inappropriate for a geisha to search for it. It will easily damage Bai Gui's reputation, so Ajun wants to ask Bai Gui to go see Xunzi.
one side……
This request was very abrupt. Geisha's status was not high, let alone compared with famous writers.
"If I have time, I will go and ask her to wait for me at the geisha school."
Bai Gui nodded and agreed.
He will go to Kyoto in a few days, and it would be nice to take a look at it along the way.
It is not difficult to understand that Xunzi is in the Kyoto Geisha School. Kyoto's housing and geisha industry are second to none in Japan, and only there will be a geisha school.
