Living a similar life every day, Xia Zhi's concept of time has gradually become thinner. For him, there are only twenty-four hours in a day. If it weren't for this call from a far away place, he would have lost all time.
I don’t know that today is already the 31st. Yes, it happens. During a long holiday, I only know what time it is, but I don’t know what day it is.
Xia Zhi entered such a wonderful state during these repeated days. Therefore, when the call from Tachibana Aya was answered and he heard the words "Happy New Year", Xia Zhi was stunned on the spot, and deliberately started from himself.
I walked out of the room and looked at the calendar. OK, December 31st.
Moreover, it is still half past six in the morning, and Xia Zhi is buying the materials needed for breakfast. Recently, he has been spending his mornings like this. Although he got up very early, he still has something to do in the morning, so he can be regarded as enjoying it.
.However, it was only half past seven in Japan at this time. For someone like Tachibana Aya, the time to wake up was really too early.
...As for the so-called Happy New Year, it is even more nonsense. At this time, Japan is at least twelve and a half hours away from 2019. From this, it can be inferred...
"You guys, are you confused by your sleep so early in the morning?"
Xia Zhi said while selecting ingredients at the stall. Of course, she spoke to Tachibana Aya in a language other than Chinese. The aunt who set up the stall looked like she had seen a ghost, which made Xia Zhi feel uncomfortable, so she just picked and paid.
left.
"Huh? Isn't it?"
"It's a ghost. It's only December 31st, and it's still six o'clock in the morning... No, it should be half past seven at your place. There's still half a day before the next year. Did you eat me?"
"It's too much. What's wrong with celebrating a grand festival in advance? Everyone in Japan is already preparing for the New Year."
Xia Zhi got angry when he heard this. As a man who lives in a crack, he shouldn't think about the New Year. In China, turning over the New Year is not considered celebrating the New Year. This should be understood clearly.
"Then, is there anything else? If not, I'll hang up. International phone calls are very expensive..."
This guy obviously has a communication method that can perfectly replace the phone, but she just doesn't use it. If she uses chat software, even if she chats for a day, it will probably not exceed ten yuan of life coins. This phone call will probably cost more than ten yuan in a short time.
It was twenty yuan, and Xia Zhi felt that he couldn't bear it.
Its intentions were so sinister that Xia Zhi had to guard against it.
"Oh, actually it's nothing. I just wanted to ask you when you will come back. I miss my kotatsu."
"That's mine. I bought it."
"It doesn't matter, it's all the same."
"Everything is the same."
Sometimes it is not so easy to understand, and it is indeed a characteristic of Tachibana color itself.
Xia Zhi did the math. If today was already December 31st, then half of his rest time when he went home would have passed. If he also counted the time spent in cars and planes...
There were only four days to stay at home. Xia Zhi suddenly became melancholy.
"If today is the 31st, then it's Monday, right? Then I should leave this Saturday. If I arrive on Sunday, I can also clean up... There seems to be a lot to do."
With a little calculation, you can get a rough idea. It was probably noon when I went to my own apartment in Chiba. The things I needed to do were cleaning and purchasing food. By the way, I had to borrow one month's rent from the store manager, because the rent was not available.
It's not expensive, so it's easy to pay it back, but there's no way to delay it, because it's also part of the bargain in exchange for cheaper rent.
Coupled with some other things, I might have to fill up the whole day in the past day. I hope the weather in Chiba is not bad, at least it won't rain, otherwise Xia Zhi doesn't know if he can endure half a day.
Beds and quilts that haven't been used in months are likely to be covered in dust.
"This weekend? When? Do you want me to pick you up?"
"No, don't come over."
"...Why do I feel like you dislike me?"
Because I just disliked it, Xia Zhi didn't say this out loud. The weekend was already busy enough, and if Tachibana Aya was added to the already busy weekend, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Okay, if there is nothing else, I will hang up." Xia Zhi was deeply worried about the cost of international long-distance calls. It has been nearly a few minutes since he first connected the phone, and the cost of long-distance calls is...
Six seconds is calculated, and although the call charges will vary depending on the operator, if the domestic long distance is 7 cents, the international long distance will definitely be ten times as much. Xia Zhi is not afraid to calculate it.
How much money did I lose in just these few minutes?
"What a heartless man. I finally thought about calling you and you still want to hang up on me."
"As I said, international long distance is very expensive. In just these few minutes, I have lost dozens of dollars... If converted into Japanese yen, it would be five or six hundred yen. Please be considerate of the poor people who have no money."
A phone call that lasted only a few minutes cost a quarter of a day's salary. The phone call was too expensive, and Xia Zhi didn't dare to make it.
"...Isn't this very cheap?"
"You're so cheap! I'm dead."
Before Tachibana Aya could say the next sentence, Xia Zhi hung up the phone. He looked at the call time, three minutes and twenty-five seconds. If calculated at seven yuan per minute... that's almost twenty-five yuan.
It's about time. Xia Zhi felt heartache and toothache.
Although this is just news that Tachibana Aya suddenly had a problem with her brain, half of her short half-month vacation has indeed passed. I thought about what I have done since I got home...
"Isn't this basically the same as doing nothing?" Xia Zhi sighed.
So far, apart from cleaning the house twice out of boredom and providing breakfast and lunch for Xia Meng and himself, Xia Zhi has not done anything special. And even if these things are not done by himself, there is no problem at all.
In other words... Xia Zhi has no meaning in existing here at this moment.
Is there anything more frustrating than this?
Forget it, I didn't plan to do anything when I returned home this time. Seeing that Xia Meng and her parents were in good health, and nothing bad happened at home, I should be very happy.
The phone in her hand vibrated again. This was a text message from someone she had just spoken to: Read the message! It was a simple sentence. Xia Zhi thought about it for a while but still didn't understand what she wanted to express.
With the mentality of giving it a try, Xia Zhi opened the chat software that he had not opened for a long time because he was home for vacation. He did receive a lot of messages from there, and the largest number was because it was being updated frequently.
The top one is the Tachibana color.
It is a social rule that when humans choose their avatars, they will invariably use the heads of cats and dogs. Tachibana Aya's avatar was taken from a nearby photo of Xiao Xi's sleeping face.
For some well-known reasons, although the news from Tachibana Aya has been refreshing, Xia Zhi cannot accept it well... There are too many pictures. Compared with text, the speed and time of receiving pictures will be slower.
It increased significantly, so Xia Zhi could only see the countless pictures being read and the explanatory text mixed in them. The teacher said that it was like reading a novel at the same time. He knew exactly what she was talking about, but
But you have no idea what the specific content is.
Judging from the text, Tachibana Aya seems to have been to a lot of places and eaten a lot of delicious food in the past few days. And judging from the fact that she took the initiative to share so many pictures, she should be very happy herself.
However, Xia Zhi couldn't see it at all.
Ah...that's too bad.
Although Xia Zhi disdains this kind of showing off, this kind of behavior that even shows off without letting you know the full content is even more irritating. Give her some roasted mice to buy online and go there... maybe she will be very
Happy (laughing).
Xia Zhi put the phone back into his pocket and let it load on its own. Xia Zhi continued walking towards home.
After finishing Xia Meng's breakfast, it might be time to think about how to spend this period of time in a more meaningful way. These are the few days of vacation. But Xia Zhi didn't think of what he should do all the way home.
something.
Except for improving the breakfast food for Xia Meng, or cleaning the house, which was slightly meaningful, Xia Zhi felt that nothing he did was of much significance. After he left home, Xia Zhi
Meng will probably sleep until he wakes up naturally as before. If he wakes up early, he goes out to buy breakfast. If he wakes up late, he waits for lunch. The environment at home is not very easy to get dirty. The effect of regular cleaning by parents is the same as that of oneself.
Cleaning twice in a row for four days will achieve the same effect.
Xia Zhi, who had been doing useless work for a few days, probably the biggest change in the past few days after returning home was that he had to cook more rice for one person. Helpless, Xia Zhi became frustrated. But he has long been used to this.
Xia Zhi, who faced such a level of difficulty that could not even be considered a setback, would not change at all.
I slightly want to go there in advance and go to Chiba.
Although I live alone, I do everything by myself, and I don’t even have time to rest when I’m a little busy. Recently, some people even cheated me of my rest time, but - it’s better than
I'm so bored at home that I don't know what to do.
Xia Meng is very good. She doesn't need to worry at all except that she doesn't know how to take care of herself. And even this is supervised by her mother who is more experienced in this. Her future may be even more glorious than she can even imagine.
level. My parents are also very healthy. Although they are busy now, this is proof that their work is going smoothly. They don't need to worry and take care of themselves.
Although it's a little late to think about it now, but...
