Chapter 77 The most gentle bowing

According to national regulations, the meteorological stations in Japan's capitals, provinces, prefectures, counties, and cities will see the flowers of plum blossoms, apricots, and cherry blossoms, and the red leaves of maple trees, ginkgoes, etc., and you can hear yellow warblers, tits, etc. Carry out long-term "biological seasonal observation" on the day of birdsong, and then gather the data in the Japan Meteorological Administration. Released as "XX Frontline".

This kind of activity began in 1925 and has a history of nearly 70 years in Japan. Among them, the "Sakura Front" is the most concerned by the public. Every year, newspapers and TV stations will actively report on it. Starting from Okinawa in mid-to-late January, through The Kanto region in late March, the Tohoku region in early April, and the northern part of Hokkaido in early and mid-May.

Today is the day when the "Cherry Blossom Front" arrives in Hirano, which is also the "Hanami Day" of the Hirano cherry blossoms, which means that although spring is not too late, it finally arrives slowly.

But spring is the best time to sleep, which is the best time of the year to sleep in. When Qing Jian Liuli's alarm clock rang, it was very bright. Da Yizhi rolled out of bed, sat on the floor in a daze for a while, and then managed to wake up.

Four catties of fat in half a month, and nearly a hundred catties a year. It is impossible to be really fat. Her ideal is to become a smart and elegant woman like Miss Liulimoss. Before that, she also wants to be a Tibetan fox. A cute and beautiful girl absolutely cannot accept being a glazed ball, so since she can't control her mouth, she has to work hard.

She yawned and changed into her tracksuit, tied a sandbag, tied her hair up indiscriminately, and went out for a run. She jogged three times around the town area. After seeing sweat on her forehead, she returned to her backyard and started practicing against the rising sun. Tang Shou kuishou, put on iron clogs and practiced kicking repeatedly, and finally fell down on the corridor in the backyard and did not move.

It's over, I haven't done so much exercise for more than a year, and I feel sore and numb after training, and I paid a very heavy price for eating a few pig's feet.

Qingjian Xiangzi stretched out her head and glanced at her, saw that she was still panting and ignored her, went to make breakfast by herself, dragged her out of the bathroom when breakfast was ready, helped her put on beautiful clothes, combed her hair— ——Although Xiaowen Wufu is an everyday Wufu, it is still difficult for a novice like Qingjian Liuli to put it on by himself, so someone needs to help.

When everything was ready, Qingjian Xiangzi took the noisy little daughter who wanted beautiful clothes and left, and asked the eldest daughter to wait for the time to go to Qiyuan Takeshi, and the young man went to play by himself.

Qing saw that Liuli was at home until after nine o'clock before she felt relieved, but her legs were still weak like noodles, and now there were more pedestrians on the street, and they were all excited to go out together, so she went out to find Wu Qiyuan .

She shouted for a long time on the first floor before coming down from Qiyuan Takeshi, and when she came down, she said sullenly, "What are you going crazy so early in the morning?"

Qingjian Liuli was also very dissatisfied: "Didn't you agree to go to the Hanami Ritual Festival together? Why did you get up so late, and are you deaf? I've been calling you for a long time!"

Takeshi Qiyuan realized that he said last night that we would go for a walk together today, that’s right, he slept so soundly in his special bed—equivalent to a soundproof coffin—that he forgot about it.

Realizing that he was wrong, he immediately laughed like a big gray wolf, as if nothing happened just now, and said softly: "No wonder you are dressed so beautifully today."

Qing Jian Liuli is indeed very beautiful today. The overall blue and small pattern Wufu makes her look very delicate and gentle, but the fine peony flower buds on it can make people's eyes shine, and it looks lively.The hair is simply rolled up, revealing the slender and fair neck, and the hair hangs down around the ears to modify the shape of the face, which can give +90 to the appearance of 2 points, plus a small peony made of silk inserted obliquely in the bun to draw the finishing touch , nearly perfect.

Especially when she was praised all of a sudden, now her little face was slightly flushed, and she bowed her head, which really meant what Xu Zhimo said - the gentleness of bowing her head was the shyness like a water lotus flower that could not withstand the cool breeze.

Qing was really happy to see Liuli. This set of clothes was extremely troublesome to put on. It took almost an hour to comb her hair and change clothes, but even a super picky guy like Takeshi Qiyuan can boast that she is beautiful, so she must be really beautiful. It didn't take that much time in vain.

She was happy, and pretended to be a lady with her head down, but she couldn't help turning the small bag-shaped handbag like a small windmill in her hand. His eyes were falling on the "little windmill", and he realized it. He quickly put his sleeves together, exposing only white and tender fingertips, gently pinched the small handbag, and placed it in front of his lower abdomen.

Yes, a lady should hold a small handbag like this, instead of swinging it around.

Humph, this is perfect!

Qiyuan Wu was speechless. This Tibetan fox can be beautiful for 2 minutes. After 2 minutes, the fox's tail must be exposed, but he didn't say anything. Anyway, he fooled him with the unreasonable thing. He went to wash up directly, and didn't eat breakfast. Then set off to visit the festival and experience folk customs.

Qingjian Liuli followed him out the door, stepping on the small wooden clogs "click click", and pointed to the distance happily: "The festival is in the park over there. There are more than 200 cherry blossom trees there. Pretty."

Qiyuan Wu took a look, and found that the pedestrians on the street were basically heading in that direction, and couldn't help being more interested: "Then let's go too."

He still prefers to join in the fun, so he brought Qingjian Liuli to this small promenade park with the flow of people, and the Spring Festival is actually a temple fair, there are already many small stalls here, neatly lined up two times There are everything from play, use to food, for people to have fun after visiting.

There is also a "performance" at one end of the square, which is voluntarily performed by some older residents for free. At the moment, the "Spring Festival" is being held, with drums and chant, accompanied by an old man in priestly costume and two witches. Next, divination by the size and color of cherry blossom petals to determine whether this year is a good year or a bad year.

There are a lot of people around here, all watching with a smile on their faces, and the priest... I don't know if it is a real priest, put the cherry petals in a shallow bowl filled with clear water for a while, and then shouted excitedly to the people around Announcing that this year is a year of good harvest, great abundance, sows give birth, old cows give birth, sheep are full of pens and baskets of rice are full, the catch is endless, the population is prosperous, everything is going well, and the best can't be better!
The acting skills are pretty good, you should be able to add chicken legs to dinner, and the crowd around applauds together, everyone is smiling.Qing Jian Liuli was also very happy to see Liuli swinging the small handbag, and said to Qiyuan Wule: "This year is another good year, and it has been a good year for 11 consecutive years."

Takeshi Qiyuan also applauded, but couldn't help laughing and said, "It turns out that you fell into the river right now 12 years ago."

Qing Jian Liuli was surprised: "How do you know?"

"You have such a character that loves to join in the fun. If it weren't for falling into the water and being sick and unable to go out, how could you not come." Qiyuan Wu said with a smile, "You obviously didn't watch the spring festival 12 years ago. How could this kind of performance predict the famine year? Surely If you want a good reputation, you must have Dafeng Special Feng, so even if it runs for 50 years, it will continue to grow for 50 years, and there will be no interruption in the middle.”

It seemed to make sense, but Qing Jian Liuli refused to accept it and said: "This is a folk custom. If every year is said to be a good year, then what's the point of holding this kind of activity? Is it just for psychological comfort? You must judge before you can draw a conclusion, yes There may be divination in famine years, how could it be the same for 50 years.”

At this moment, the divination activity has ended, and the Kagura dance has been replaced. The local residents have started to flatter the ghosts and gods again and pay special protection fees. I hope that the ghosts and gods will continue to take care of them this year.

Takeshi Qiyuan took her to see the cherry blossoms, and said with a smile: "It was meaningful in ancient times. According to the cherry blossoms blooming sooner or later, and the signs of the flowers, experienced old people can roughly guess the length of summer and the shortness of summer, and the situation of rain, and they can naturally divination. Whether there is a bumper harvest or whether to prepare for the shortage in advance has certain accuracy and practicality, but in modern times, there are meteorological stations, and everyone can predict the weather next year, so this kind of activity is only a good thing. Whoever is crazy will be disappointed."

Qingjian Liuli suddenly realized, no wonder the spring festivals are the same every year, and they are about to be changed to garden parties. It turns out that they have been eliminated by scientific development, and everyone is engaging in formalism, so they coax themselves to play.

But it doesn’t matter, as long as it’s fun, she’s still interested, and she accompanied Takeshi Qihara to the Cherry Blossom Avenue to see the cherry blossoms—the cherry blossom avenue in this park is only composed of more than 200 cherry blossom trees, which can’t be compared with places like Tokyo. Thousands of plants, thousands of plants, but still very beautiful.

And both sides of the avenue are full of big mountain cherry blossoms with the same species and the same flowering period. At this moment, they are all in full bloom. It can barely be said that there is no end at a glance. The cherry blossoms are all pure white and fine powder. It is very spectacular, and occasionally the breeze caresses However, a few scattered cherry blossom petals float down sadly, which can add some romantic and mournful atmosphere.

"It's so beautiful..." Qing saw that the glass girl's heart broke out, and as soon as she walked to the cherry blossom avenue, she began to stare at the cherry blossom tree in a daze.

"It's really good." Takeshi Qihara also thought it was okay. Japan is obsessed with cherry blossoms, and it has indeed put a lot of effort into cultivating cherry blossoms and building cherry blossom attractions. This kind of cherry blossom avenue is also considered a small wonder.

They watched from a distance for a while, feeling good, and walked through the cherry blossom avenue together. Qing Jian Liuli also picked up a few pieces of first cherry blossom petals and put them in a small handbag, planning to turn around and make bookmarks as a souvenir. There are more and more people, and many people come early with their families to occupy a place to prepare for a picnic, and some companies organize a "cherry blossom viewing party" to read poems and drink wine, which is very speechless-this group of people arrived at ten o'clock in the morning. After drinking it, it can be regarded as team building in the 90s.

Qingjian Liuli chatted with Qiyuan Takeshi along the way, and after passing through the neat cherry blossom avenue, he began to discuss the varieties of scattered cherry blossom trees on the roadside, which kind of flowering period is the most beautiful, which kind of leaves can be pickled to make cherry cakes, which kind of cherry blossoms can After eating, I quickly turned around and went around the entrance of the park.

At this time, she was a little hungry, and when she saw a small stall selling soba noodles, she asked Qiyuan Wu, "Do you want to eat?"

She has "holiday expenses" today, and her mother sent her extra pocket money, which she put in her small handbag. It was a small stall, and I found that Obasan, who was frying noodles on the iron plate, was a clean person, and the ingredients of the stall were also okay, so you can try it.

There are a lot of people at the moment, and they need to queue up, and they are not in a hurry. Qing Jian Liuli is there talking about some interesting things about her childhood, Qi Yuanwu keeps making fun of her, and when they are about to queue up, a little girl in her early ten years in front of her has finished shopping. For soba noodles, you have to pay for a 260-yen bill—ordinary soba fried noodles cost only [-] yen per serving.

Obasan didn't care, he only thought that the child had no change, and even if he was very busy, he quickly gave her change, but just as she found a lot of change and put it on the cart, the little girl fumbled in her pocket and found the change. Smiling, he hurriedly paid for the soba noodles, hesitated for a while, and pushed back a lot of small change and [-] yen, and asked obediently, "Can you change it all into [-]-yen change for me? I'll wait a while." I might have to buy a lot of little dolls..."

"Of course." Obasan looked easy-going and gentle, and immediately took out ten thousand-yen banknotes and handed them to her so that she could continue shopping while she was playing, and told her to be careful.

"Thank you!" The little girl bowed obediently after receiving it, turned around and left, but turned around a little hastily, and accidentally bumped into Qingjian Liuli.

Qiyuan Wu hurriedly stretched out his hand to support him, and said with a smile, "Be careful."

"Thank you big brother." The little girl was really well-behaved, she immediately raised her head and gave a big smile, then apologized obediently to Qing Jian Liuli, and then disappeared into the crowd.

This little episode didn't attract anyone's attention, and Qing Jian Liuli didn't take it seriously, boasting a few words, "This child is so cute", and then directly said to Obasan: "We want two eggs to pour buckwheat... um, One serving of soba noodles with eggs, one serving of stir-fried vegetarian noodles, more bean sprouts... No, not too many bean sprouts, please."

She took out her small handbag while she was talking, but she didn't take out the money after two times. It was obvious that her mother put [-] yen in it before, and she had seen it when she put cherry blossom petals in it. up?
She rummaged through paper towels, small mirrors, headbands and other miscellaneous items, but Qiyuan Wu pushed her aside with his buttocks, took out a huge black wallet, which was messily stuffed with banknotes, and said with a generous smile: " Don't take out your little pockets, come out to play today and I'll treat you, all expenses will be mine!"

While talking, he bent down, picked up a [-]-yen banknote from the ground, and handed it to Obasan, who sells fried noodles, and said with a smile: "You dropped [-]-yen just now, keep it carefully, and don't lose it." gone."
