Hitomi Konoe received a good beating, mainly because her village was based on blood ties. The rows of bamboo and wooden houses in this area were all her relatives. When they heard that she was back, they all rushed over to visit her, including all kinds of uncles, aunts and uncles.
Cousin and cousin, no matter how many generations behind her, everyone would scold her and scold her for why she refused to go home - their impression of Hitomi Konoe was still more than three years ago.
I don't think she has grown up, I still treat her as the girl who loves to daydream.
She was directly depressed. She tried her best to emphasize how prosperous she was in Tokyo, but it was no use. She was still pulled around by the ears and slapped on the head from time to time - this was completely different from what she thought. She originally thought she would come back.
It will become the focus of the eyes and the whole family will bow to it.
Of course, she is indeed the center of attention now, but no one intends to worship her, so they are very enthusiastic.
This was her family matter, and Qianhara Rinto had nothing to do with it. He stood by with a smile and got to know her family. After she was beaten, he took the initiative to bring his girlfriend and three disciples with gifts in line with the guest's consciousness.
I visited Hitomi Konoe's great-grandmother - she lived not far away, just a few hundred meters away, at Konoe Hitomi's grandmother's house. Takako Konoe and many other people also accompanied her there.
Hitomi Konoe's mother-in-law is very old, already in her nineties, but she doesn't look like an old man. Her hair is not all white, and she is quite energetic. Chihara Rinto originally thought she had injured her arm and shoulder, but she didn't.
I was supposed to be lying in bed to recuperate, but instead I went to someone's house with the dog to feed the chickens. Nothing happened.
This is of course a good thing. Chihara Rinto immediately extended his sincere greetings and expressed his admiration for her physical and mental state. Konoe Hitomi's grandmother is indeed a woman who faces the sea all year round. She has a very forthright and cheerful personality.
She bluntly said that there was no need to worry. She wouldn't be dead for a while. Not all the hundred-year-old people in the village were dead. It was not her turn for the time being. She directly blocked Chihara Rinto and had nothing to say. She felt like she had met the elderly version of Hitomi Konoe.
Feel.
Hitomi Konoe also knelt down obediently and greeted her for a long time. Her great-grandmother really felt sorry for her great-granddaughter. She didn't give her a second to help her remember, but instead touched her head and asked her if she had suffered any hardships in Tokyo.
, whether he was wronged or not. Hitomi Konoe quickly went into bragging mode, talking about his history of struggle and detailing how he went from a passerby actor to a movie star.
Of course, she didn't forget Chihara Rinto, saying that on the one hand, she worked hard, but on the other hand, the master taught her well and gave her too many opportunities. As a result, Konoe Hitomi's mother-in-law held Chihara Rinto's hand again.
I thanked him for a while, especially when I heard that Hitomi Konoe was his disciple and lived in his house, and immediately gave him the Sword of Shangfang - this child has been growing up since he was a child, and he is extremely skinny. If he does anything wrong, he should use all his strength.
If you beat me, it's my fault. Don't be polite.
They were saying polite words, but they couldn't take it seriously. Chihara Rinto quickly praised Hitomi Konoe and spoke in great detail. He gave examples of some interesting and difficult things at work, such as Hitomi Konoe's work during the day.
Listening to classes in the evening, desperately trying to save her during an earthquake, etc., were all described in detail to highlight the difficulty of Hitomi Konoe's success and the majesty of her personal image.
His eloquence was quite good, and what he said was fresh here. For a while, Konoe Hitomi's relatives listened with interest, and they couldn't help but start to look at Konoe Hitomi with admiration. They even heard that Konoe Hitomi had hurt her face, and many people started to look at her with admiration.
I gave Hitomi Konoe a few words - Hitomi Konoe never reported good news but not bad news. He didn't tell his family at all about the injuries sustained during the earthquake in the four prefectures.
Ning Zi also smiled and echoed, Michiko and Seiko also said good things, anyway, she tried her best to help Konoe Hitomi to hold up her stand, which made Konoe Takako look more and more pleased - the female traveler Qianli Mu was worried, even if she could be seen on TV from time to time
I saw my daughter's name later in the program and knew that she had not gone astray and was living a good life, but nothing could compare to the reassurance of seeing it with my own eyes.
My daughter actually made a difference...
The visit lasted more than an hour, and the guests and hosts were enjoying themselves. Hitomi Konoe's grandmother-in-law gave an order to entertain her great-granddaughter's master and fellow disciples, and called all the relatives for a meal - dozens of people, but
There are more women than men. Many of the men here are crew members and can only come back once in a while. For example, Hitomi Konoe’s father works on a squid fishing boat and he doesn’t know where he is now!
Fortunately, women have a high status here, and they are served directly on the table. They are no different from men. They are still very lively, and the welcome banquet is very rich and contemporary. It is Tokushima's famous "pirate cuisine" - the name is very domineering, and it probably means
It is a special dish for pirates, but the cooking method is not as extensive as usual, just one word: steaming.
Various large fish and ginseng, steamed;
Various shrimps, shellfish, snails, steamed;
Large taro, small taro, and konjac are also steamed;
Anyway, everything was steamed. The two-foot-long wooden plate couldn't fit the huge fat fish. The fish head and tail were all outside the plate. The internal organs were removed, the scales were removed and they were still moving, so they were steamed in the pot.
The basin where children can bathe is filled with oysters, scallops, snails and other shellfish. They are also steamed alive on the fire; shrimps cannot escape, and there are strange and strange varieties, so they are piled in
The big plate is still steaming, and it is steaming and jumping at the same time - when it is steamed, the sauce mixed with fish oil, salt, sauce, spices, vegetable cubes, and taro powder is poured directly on it, making the mist roll in and the freshness is fragrant.
, and then you can start eating.
It's really wild, the bowl is big and the plate is big, and it's thick with oil and sauce. You eat it directly with your hands, and suck up the juice on your hands casually. It's so wild, and it doesn't look like Japanese food at all.
Of course, there are also local specialties of Tokushima, such as taro pickled with golden sugar and sea salt (sugar cane is also grown here, and the sugar is yellow due to local craftsmanship), and bamboo tube fish cakes (cooked fish meat is skimmed off the fish oil, without any added
Seasonings, mashed and put into bamboo tubes to shape and then cut into rice cake slices), raw abalone (large fresh abalone cut alive and eaten with coarse salt) and other side dishes to accompany wine, at least not steamed all the way.
As for the wine, it's "taro-yaki" - sweet potatoes are also considered taro here, but they are actually brewed using sweet potato methods. It's a little turbid, but the taste is very refreshing. There are absolutely no additives. It is a pure, natural and original wine.
One of the categories, Hui Gan is pretty good.
Ningzi and Seiko don't drink very much, they only touch their lips. Michiko is not old enough and drinks sugar cane juice. That leaves only Chihara Rinto who can drink. The people here are relatively simple in temperament, stupid in mouth, and very respectful.
As a social celebrity, Chihara Rinto did not dare to talk to him, but he took turns to toast without stopping.
The other party had a large number of people and was very affectionate. The toast came from the bottom of his heart. Qianhara Rinto couldn't help but make people's hearts cold. After all, he was the second disciple's family. He could only drink as much as he could, even if he used a shot to get more birds, he raised his glass.
A tribute to a group of Chinese wine-drinking experts. As a result, the wine was already a little too much before the pirate cuisine was fully experienced.
He quickly winked at Konoe Hitomi, hoping that the alcoholic second disciple would help him block the gun, but when Konoe Hitomi picked up the wine glass, he no longer saw him as his master, and was still bragging and frothing at the mouth.
I don’t want my family to know that I am so awesome and I don’t care about my master’s life or death.
Fortunately, Konoe Hitomi's family members didn't want to drink him too much. Several older senior ama's eyes lit up when they saw him drinking, and they quickly told him to just do whatever he wanted. Everyone should talk more, don't force it, and wine is between people.
The best props to get acquainted with each other. Once everyone was a little drunk, the restraints were reduced and their mouths opened up. Many people were very interested in Tokyo and the TV station, and began to inquire curiously.
Chihara Rinto talked about everything he knew, and gave these people a detailed science education, focusing on the work that Konoe Hitomi was responsible for, so as to further reassure them.
After that, he came and went, not wanting the topic to always revolve around people like himself, so he asked people about the history of the village. The Konoe family did not treat him as an outsider, and talked about the long history of Kogiri Town.
I said the same thing, even the bad history of my ancestors was brought up - their village can be traced back to the Warring States Period, and they fought with the Awaji Pirates at that time, but it is not clear which force they fought, anyway, it was occasionally
The people who came ashore to rob the Kinki area were not just for money, but mainly for rice.
The surname was chosen blindly. In the past, there were no surnames, and they could be called whatever they wanted. Later, they were all required to have surnames. They had many families, and the people in the village couldn't compete with them, so they took the sword mountain Konoe Peak near the village as their surname, and Kyoto's
The Konoe family has no connections and is basically a pure savage family.
Qianyuan Rinto was also a little dizzy after drinking. He picked up a piece of fresh abalone and threw it into his mouth. He chewed it and felt the original freshness. He nodded slowly - it turns out that your ancestors really were pirates!
No, you have to drink less, be careful this is a den of thieves!
…………
That was Qianhara Rinto’s last memory. Whatever happened later, it was broken. It seemed that he had been dreaming on and off for a long time. He dreamed that pirates took him to the sea. He said he didn’t want to eat fish and asked him for a hundred tons.
Rice. Where can he get a hundred tons of rice? He has no choice but to survive and resort to persuasion. He wants to accept a group of pirates as his followers and become the pirate king. However, the pirates don't accept that trick.
A knife was placed on his neck and he was asked whether he wanted to eat wonton noodles or flat noodles.
Then his memory blurred again. He felt as if he had chosen wonton noodles and fell into the sea. He was drowned. The sea water was freezing cold and he couldn't breathe. But he could faintly hear Hitomi Konoe asking: "Master, are you feeling better?"
?"
Really out of breath, he sat up immediately, stretched out his hand to scratch his face, and grabbed a cold wet towel. In his ears, he heard Hitomi Konoe complaining: "Why are you so excited? I'm just
Wipe your face!"
"I'll do it myself." Chihara Rinto was stunned for a while, covered his face with a cold towel, and then asked: "Am I drunk?"
Hitomi Konoe said embarrassedly: "I forgot to remind you, the wine tasted pretty good. The more I drank, the more I wanted to drink, but the stamina was a little strong. You were fine at the time, but you were a little drunk when you came back."
Qianhara Rinto was speechless. Why didn't you tell me earlier? I was still controlling the volume at the time and felt nothing was wrong. No wonder the film was discontinued later and I almost became the Pirate King... Maybe I should have changed the method of persuasion at that time. I controlled that
A ship may be a symbol of great ambition and hegemony.
Pity……
His mind was not fully awake yet, and he was distracted for a while before he realized something was wrong.
He had a big secret in his heart, and he must never get drunk. He had always been vigilant after arriving in this world. If he felt something was wrong, he would immediately kill him and not drink. Unexpectedly, he had to be careful and the boat capsized once, so he quickly tested: "
I didn’t say anything weird when I was drunk, right?”
If you get drunk and tell the truth to the boss, it will be all over!
Hitomi Konoe was surprised, but immediately replied: "No, your wine is quite good. When you are drunk, you just shake your head and don't say a word. You just sleep all night. It's almost ten o'clock in the morning now."
"You really didn't say anything?"
"No, senior sister secretly asked you who you think is the most important in your heart, but you just shook your head." Hitomi Konoe came to his senses as he spoke, stretched out his head, and asked mysteriously: "Master, are you there?
What are you afraid of? Is there any ulterior secret? Is it something that cannot be handled? We are our own people, tell me and I will help you!"
I will never drink taro soju again, no, I won’t drink soju either!
Qianhara Rinto felt reassured and quickly reflected, then pushed Konoe Hitomi's head away and said disgustedly: "Who is with your own people, I have no secrets, don't make wild guesses."
Konoe Hitomi's eyes were full of doubts, and she carefully recalled whether her master might have had a mistress, or whether there was a period of time where it was more suspicious, and he had a one-night stand after staying out all night. However, Chihara Rinto didn't want to continue this topic, looked around, and asked
: "Where is your sister Ningzi?"
Hitomi Konoe was still reminiscing. It felt like Rinto Chihara didn't have time. He was either at the TV station or on the set, or at home. He probably didn't keep a mistress secretly, but it was hard to say whether he slept with a female anchor or something like that. After all, he
Often staying up late at night - this kind of thing is too common in Japanese TV stations. Most of the female anchors have some problems. It is difficult for her not to suspect.
She was thinking about something in her mind and said casually: "They went to change clothes. Let me wake you up to eat."
Qianhara Rinto was confused: "They are changing clothes together? What clothes are they changing into?"
"They want to experience the life of Ama as I am." Hitomi Konoe has already started to eliminate the female anchors in Kanto. She is very good at gossiping. Anyone who doesn't clean themselves up has probably heard of it.
He made some gossip, and while dismissing it, he casually gestured to himself, "Gong Wu, aren't you particularly ugly, Master?"
Qianhara Rinto took a closer look at her. Her upper body was in a white pullover, which was still fluttering. It was enough for pretending to be a female ghost at night. Her lower body was in white shorts, but she had a long, nondescript tie around her waist.
With its wide white belt, I immediately felt that this Ama-specific costume was indeed quite classy.
He was not polite and told the truth: "It's ugly. You look fatter. You've gained a lot of weight."
Hitomi Konoe was speechless, Master, this is too insulting! Why am I fat? I have a standard figure, okay? If you think I am fat, it is because I have seen too many actresses with skeletons...
Can that be the same?!
Before she could protest, Ningzi opened the door and came in, smiling and asking: "Rinren, do you feel better?"
Qianhara Rinto turned around to look at his girlfriend, and found that he was wearing the same clothes as Hitomi Konoe, and her long legs were so white. He couldn't help but said quickly: "It's nothing. The drink was a bit strong, but it didn't get to the head."
.”
Ning Zi noticed that his eyes were moving downwards, but she didn't mind. Instead, she turned around slightly, showing him the profile and waist of the water snake, and asked with a smile: "Does this dress look good? Does it fit me well?"
"It looks good! It's very suitable!" Qianhara Rinto nodded directly.
If you want to be pretty, you should dress in filial piety. This is true. Ning Zi originally had a rather elegant temperament, but now she is wearing this white outfit, and she looks really pretty and delicate. This is not a desire for survival or trying to flatter her girlfriend.
, it’s so beautiful and unique that people can’t help but...
Well, it really adds fun to wearing it anyway.
Ningzi pursed her lips and chuckled, squinting her eyes very happily, while Konoe Hitomi was depressed, and dared not say anything in anger: Master, you are so inhumane, the same clothes, Ningzi's sister looks good in them.
, I look fat when I wear it!
If you engage in this kind of differential treatment all day long, do you still have a conscience?
