After simply finishing breakfast, Xia Zhi started to put away the tableware. Although Shiraishi Rika said she wanted to help, Xia Zhi didn't even ask Shiraishi Rika to take a sip of hot water, so Xia Zhi still took it all. However,
Shiraishi Rika could always find something to do in her free time. She found the electric kettle that Xia Zhi brought with her when she moved and boiled water, saying she wanted to make tea.
On the other hand, Tachibana Aya shouted, "You can drink tea when you come back. The most important thing now is to buy a mat." She didn't know why she was so excited, but Natsuki still poured her a glass of juice to calm her down. This juice was from yesterday.
I bought it while buying shampoo for Xia Meng, so I bought the right thing.
It's just that Tachibana Aya, who has never been satisfied, shouted that she didn't want apple juice but watermelon juice. When Natsuki was about to confiscate her juice, she drank it all in one go.
"In my cup, everything is mine!" she said like a robber.
As for tea, Tachibana Aya doesn't like drinking tea. When Shiraishi Rika asked her if she wanted tea, she shook her head, so she only made three cups. After finishing washing the dishes, Natsuki planned to go back to the living room to rest for a while.
, As soon as Natsuki sat down, he was attacked by Tachibana Aya's gaze, and he couldn't even taste the tea in his mouth.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
"I'm looking to see if you've had enough rest."
Although these words sound very much like what the evil bourgeoisie would say when they want to squeeze the last bit of surplus value from the glorious proletariat, Xia Zhi will not give in.
Sitting with the tea cup, Natsuki was ready to slowly enjoy the cup of tea, ignoring Tachibana Aya's gaze. Shiraishi Reika specially sent the tea. Even if she didn't say how much it cost, even if Natsuki didn't understand tea at all, he could still do it.
He guessed that this kind of tea must be extremely expensive. If he didn't taste it carefully, Xia Zhi would feel heartbroken even if he got the tea for free.
"Hurry up." Tachibana Aya pursed her lips in dissatisfaction.
"Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Go buy a mat, and then you can continue using the kotatsu when you come back."
"...Spring is almost over. Do you still want to buy a mat to use the kotatsu?"
"I don't care! I want it!" Tachibana Aya put her hand on her waist and pulled Xia Meng to the same front as herself: "Mengmeng also said that she wanted to sit in the kotatsu to keep warm."
Xia Zhi looked at Xia Meng, who blinked, as if he didn't expect that Tachibana Aya would drag him into trouble at this time, but Xia Meng still nodded, looked at Xia Zhi and said: "You can indeed buy it, although
Spring is almost over, but the wooden floor here is not like a tatami, it is quite cold when you step on it, so you can find something to put on it."
Xia Zhi lowered his head and looked at the wooden floor, which seemed to be of good quality, and nodded: "It seems you can buy it. But if you want to buy it, just cover it all over the apartment. After all, Mengmeng, you are not very good at it."
Wear shoes, not even socks now.”
Hearing this, Xia Meng put her feet back and glared at Xia Zhi: "You have to take care of it. It's not particularly cold anyway, but it's better to step on the wooden floor than on the tiles."
"I think they are all the same." Xia Zhi put down the cup in his hand and looked around the apartment, feeling a little worried: "If you want to buy one, just buy that kind of foam floor mat. At least you won't feel cold when you step on it, but
I don’t know how much I will buy, and I don’t have a tape measure or anything like that at home.”
"It's not necessary to cover them all, right?" Xia Meng gave a different opinion, and then pointed to the ground: "Just pave it in the living room. It's enough to buy one square meter. Put it in the living room for 16 yuan.
You can keep four more pieces as spares, or you can cut them off and use them for wall coverings. Buying this much is almost enough."
"Yes." Xia Zhi nodded: "Then just go and buy it for twenty yuan. I remember it should be sold at the department store, right?"
"I forgot which floor it is on, but I also bought it there. Let's go take a look together later." Tachibana Aya held her chin: "However, the two of us just went there once yesterday, and we went there again today.
Going?"
"I didn't expect this to happen yesterday. I still put the kotatsu in the box and haven't taken it out yet." Xia Zhi spread his hands, picked up the tea cup again and took a sip of tea: "Where is Lihua? Do you want to come with us?
go?"
"Me? Let me think about it..."
"Xiao Lihua, please come with us. I don't think anyone will come to pick you up at least before you finish dinner." Tachibana Aya winked at her, and Shiraishi Lihua's face turned slightly rosy.
, but she did not refute Tachibana Aya's words. She knew that things would probably be like this. As for being teased by Tachibana Aya, she just told Tachibana-san the reason why she appeared here.
"Okay then, will Mengmeng come with us?" Baishi Lihua looked at Xia Meng next to her, but Xia Meng shook her head.
"I won't go," Xia Meng glared at Xia Zhi: "I don't even want to wear socks, so I won't go out today. However, since you are going out later, let's decide what to eat and write about for lunch.
Then buy the ingredients as well."
"There are still a few eggs in the refrigerator..."
"Just eat it once a day." Xia Meng said to Xia Zhi without leaving any room.
Although it is urgent to correct Xia Meng's minor problem of partial eclipse, Xia Zhi thinks it is better to take it step by step. If you want to ask why, it is that Xia Zhi is generally soft-hearted towards Xia Meng. If Xia Meng makes up her mind not to eat, Xia Zhi will end up with it.
There was no way to get her to eat. Xia Zhi knew this very well, so there was no need to make any more useless attempts.
"In that case, should we go?" Tachibana Aya asked tentatively again. Natsuki and Shiraishi Rika glanced at each other, couldn't help but chuckle, and put the tea in their teacups under Tachibana Aya's puzzled gaze.
He drank all the tea in one gulp and then stood up: "Let's go then. As for what to eat for lunch, just think about it while walking."
"Mengmeng, is there anything you want to eat?"
"Fried baby potatoes."
"I asked Mengmeng."
"Fried baby potatoes."
Xia Zhi put one hand against Tachibana Aya's face, which was quickly approaching her: "I know, I know, I'll just buy some back later. Where's Mengmeng?"
"I'm free to do whatever I want, except for eggs." Xia Meng started to have a very specific eclipse.
"Then let's set off." Shiraishi Lihua also stood up.
