After walking for a while, we arrived at the Japanese-style house rented by Rongji.
The Japanese-style house is somewhat dilapidated and in disrepair.
After entering, you can smell some stale smell in the air.
After lighting the lamp, I saw some mold spots everywhere on the floor.
Japan has an oceanic climate and is very humid, so the Japanese-style house must be cleaned frequently. If it is not cleaned for a long time, mold may appear in a month or two within a few years.
"I'm sorry, this is rude..."
"I invited Mr. Bai home, but there is no good house for Mr. Bai to live in..."
Rongji gave up the largest and best room in the house and apologized profusely.
Bai Gui did not shirk this time.
If he didn't live in the best room, Rongji's family would probably feel uneasy. If the neighbors knew about it, they would also dislike them, thinking that they were uneducated and were being negligent in allowing distinguished guests to stay overnight.
In Japan, this may be the death of society.
Especially in the profession of geisha, one needs to be cautious in every step, otherwise if there is a slight mistake, it will be doomed.
In the evening, supper was also prepared.
Common miso soup, basically miso soup is a must-have for Japanese meals.
There is also soy sauce rice mixed with pickled radish.
In the living room, in addition to Bai Gui, Rongji, and Xunzi, there is also Rongji's wife, another female geisha from the Amami Tea House. She is about 20 years old, a little older than last time, and her temples are already mixed with
Wearing white silk stockings, her name is Chiyoko.
There was also a little girl at the table, who looked a few years old.
Chiyoko made a marinated beef dish, not much, just a small plate.
It is specially used to entertain guests.
Everyone at the dinner table obeyed the rules and did not eat beef, including the little girl.
Bai Gui moved his chopsticks, smiled, and invited the little girl to eat together.
A plate of beef is not enough for everyone.
If he invites everyone to eat together, then no one will eat and will refuse. Instead of doing this, it is better to invite the youngest person in the family to eat together. This will show his love and generosity, and it will not lose the hospitality of the host.
road.
When Rong Ji saw this, he wanted to scold him, but after seeing Bai Gui wave his hand, he didn't dare to say any more.
In the evening, go to bed.
There are only three Japanese-style houses to rent, two bedrooms and one utility room.
The dining area is also the dormitory.
Originally, Eiji and Chiyoko shared a room, while Xunzi and the little girl shared a room, but now the large room was given to Bai Gui, so they could only squeeze into one room.
But they are all members of the same family, sleeping in their clothes, and surviving the night is not a big deal.
There is no etiquette that poor people would avoid.
Some people only have two words: survival.
Bai Gui originally had the habit of reading and practicing Qigong at night. After reading for a while, at midnight, he practiced the Ziwu Body Purification Kung Fu taught by Master Ma for a while. The first time he practiced this technique, the effect was OK, but later on
, only inch forward.
But over time, the effect is significant.
With the talent of subtlety, you will be more at ease when you wash away all your mistakes.
However, we were renting accommodation at the moment, and kerosene lamps also cost money. He didn't care about this penny, but Rongji's family had worked hard to save. Therefore, in order to consider Rongji's family, he took a rest early.
The crows of crows outside the house could be heard in my ears, which was a bit harsh, but bearable.
After sleeping for about an hour, he was about to turn over when he suddenly heard the soft sound of the paper partition door.
The footsteps were very soft, and he must be wearing white socks and wraps.
He should be able to walk without making any noise, but his ears have been developed and his hearing and vision are very good.
"Stealing something? Probably not."
Bai Gui subconsciously thought of this. He was probably the only one who could secretly break into the dormitory. But he shook his head again. With his status, the Rongji family would not take such risks. He could also see the character of the Rongji family.
.
Once the theft is discovered by him and identified by his identity, the Rongji family will not be able to escape.
"Could it be..."
Bai Gui took a deep breath and thought about Tanabe Ryuko's "generosity". Could it be that this family is also from Kyushu? No, they are from Kofu City, and they should not be as open-minded as the people in Satsuma Domain.
But that’s not necessarily the case…
Before he could figure out what the woman who entered the room was doing, he felt the quilt being quickly lifted up, and a hot and smooth body came in close.
Very fragrant and soft.
It smells like flowers. Bai Gui remembers this floral smell.
It's the smell of Xunzi.
"gentlemen……"
Her words were trembling, filled with fear, and a trace of uneasiness.
When she and Rongji were resting in another dormitory just now, Rongji told her the reason why he deliberately asked Bai Gui to stay overnight. People like Bai Gui, with such a personality, are not very good at rejecting people.
Very polite in dealing with others.
Rong Ji has not studied for a few years, which is a way for a gentleman to bully him.
Bai Gui has always pretended to be a handsome gentleman from Bailu Village to Japan. He has a good reputation and has many benefits for his future career.
But if the hypocrite pretends to be so, others will believe him...
"Xunzi?"
Bai Gui was a little surprised.
He had already guessed it was Xunzi before she said anything.
So this sentence is just a question, why did she come?
There should be no doubt, in fact, when he nodded a little at the sweet tea house, he would probably fall into the beauty's arms by then, but he refused.
Xunzi didn't answer, just hugged him tightly.
…
Early the next morning.
When Bai Gui woke up, Xunzi had already put on a plain white kimono, with black hair falling on her shaved shoulders, and was sitting in front of the mirror stroking her eyebrows.
Her pink face was still a little rosy.
"Xunzi, I know a few girls' schools or private schools in Tokyo. When the time comes, you can come with me to Tokyo."
Bai Gui came closer, looked at Xunzi's beauty, still so moved, and traced her eyebrows.
Everything will fall into place.
He may not have any love for Xunzi, or it can be said to be a kind of private possessiveness. But love may be like this, and the love between different people is different.
As for whether she owes Bai Xiuzhu anything, they haven't made an engagement yet.
And it is obviously impossible for Xunzi to become his wife...
Thinking like this, Bai Gui felt a little guilty inexplicably.
Xunzi quickly put on her makeup, but her bun changed to Katsuyama's bun.
Same as Ajun.
This means that she is already married.
"This is the jade cicada my husband gave me when I was a disciple. The jade cicada symbolizes emergence, so when ancient people died, they often held cicadas in their mouths, which also symbolized nobility, optimism, and perseverance..."
Bai Gui looked at the bright and charming Xunzi and took a deep breath. He took out the jade cicada given by Mr. Zhu from his neck. The jade cicada's compound eyes were tied with a red silk rope. He walked closer and tied them for her.
"Thank you sir..."
Xunzi smiled sweetly and agreed to study in Tokyo.
