Ome Quartet of Snow Country

Chapter 302

Hearing that he was going to Mori Jian's barbecue, Shang Zi hesitated for a moment.

This Hana Sawako understands her daughter's concerns.

"Shangzi and Chunhai go together. Dad and I just plan to go to Tsumae Castle to see the cherry blossoms at night, and we'll find a place for dinner there by the way. We won't be back until after ten o'clock. Don't worry about us."

Shangzi thought about it for a while, then nodded.

Seeing Naruse coming on a motorcycle, Konohana Sawako asked him to ride around the door twice while talking about driving without a license.

"Chun Hai is already very skilled."

He stopped, "Otherwise I wouldn't dare to bring Shangzi."

"This child has a heart, and now he knows what to say to make us happy." She turned to her husband.

"..."

Naruse laughed dryly.

This Huache also looked at the super cub under him, without saying too much, "Be careful on the road."

"Ok."

Shangzi sat behind him and waved to his parents.

"We're off."

"Go."

At the intersection, Shangzi moved forward and hugged Naruse's waist tightly.

"Has everyone passed?"

"They're on their way, let Shangzi and I go to the supermarket to buy ingredients."

"Uh-huh."

Shangzi lay behind him, sniffing the sweat on his body... and the vague smell of a girl.

"On the way back, was it the light brought by Chunhai's bicycle?"

"Hmm. How does Shangzi know?"

"...Guess."

"She's eating, so let me ride the bike."

"Oh."

When they arrived at the supermarket, the two went in to pick out ingredients, Naruse took a few boxes of beef and pork, and Naoko took some vegetables.

"Nutritional balance."

"It's self-comforting...it hurts."

Picking and picking, Naruse looked at the ingredients in the shopping basket, "Six people, these should be almost the same."

Shangzi took a look, "Take a little more, it's not too much to eat."

"That's right, after all, there is light and starfish."

"When we get there, Chun Hai won't be able to say such things."

"Yes."

"What 'is'..."

After paying the bill, the two got into the car and rode to Mori Jian's house.

Shangzi leaned forward and hugged his waist.

The evening wind was blowing, neither hot nor cold, and it was very comfortable to blow.The setting sun hangs in the sky, the farmland on both sides recedes, and the original lushness is dyed golden.

Shangzi moved forward again, resting his chin on his boyfriend's shoulder, looking forward.

"It's like going to a friend's house as a guest."

"Just visiting a friend's house."

"I mean……"

She paused.

Naruse tilted his head slightly, "As a couple, shall we go to a friend's house together?"

Shangzi's face turned red all of a sudden.

"Um……"

He turned around again.

"Almost there."

With the setting sun shining, his ears were also a little red, which made her want to take a bite.

"Don't move..."

It took some time for Naruse to pick up people at home and go to the supermarket to buy ingredients. By the time they rode to Morimi's house, the people who were walking had already arrived.

"Wow, I bought a lot of meat."

Takigawa Hikaru took a large bag of ingredients from Naoko, "Are you finished?"

"There are six people." Shangzi said, and greeted Takikawa Tsuki again.

"Sister Yue."

"Long time no see, Shangzi."

Takigawa Tsuki looked back and forth between her and Naruse, and then blinked at her again.

"Congratulations."

Shang Zi pursed his lips and smiled.

Morimi and Haixing lifted the barbecue grill out of the warehouse together.

"Naruse, can you make a fire?"

"Yes."

"The charcoal is in the warehouse."

"it is good."

Naoko carried the ingredients and went to the kitchen of Morimi's house, and Takikawa Tsuki also came in to help.

"I really bought a lot of meat, is the wallet okay?"

Shangzi smiled, "It's from Chunhai."

"That kid is really rich..."

Shangzi looked at her and smiled again.

"Sister Yue has been in college for a month, and she has really changed a lot... her tone of voice is also different from before."

"Really, does it feel more mature?"

"I think Sister Yue has always been very mature."

"Thank you~" she was very happy.

After a while, Takikawa Yue suddenly realized that he had been coaxed.

Who is more mature...

Putting the bought beef and pork on the plates respectively, she looked at the vegetables that Shangzi was processing in front of her.

"When I was living alone, I realized that the cost of being independent was really high. I didn't dare to eat meat every day over there. I felt that if I bought anything, I would run out of money."

"Yes."

Shangzi laughed, "Rent, water and electricity, transportation... Food, clothing, housing and transportation, everything costs money, and you can't save it."

She said casually, obviously thinking about this kind of thing.

"Is Shangzi also thinking about going to university... No, I heard from Guang that both you and Chunhai are planning to go to university in Jinqian."

"Hmm... Even if I go to college at my doorstep, I still think about being independent from home a little bit."

Takikawa Tsuki looked at her for a while, then suddenly asked:
"Is Shangzi still thinking about becoming independent from home, working to earn money, and paying back to adoptive parents?"

"..."

Shangzi was stunned for a moment.

After a while, she finally said, "What is Sister Yue talking about?"

"Isn't that so?"

"no……"

"Sorry, that's just my memory."

"fine……"

She remembered correctly.

Takikawa Tsuki looked down at the meat on the plate and thought to himself.

She still clearly remembers that when she was just in middle school, Shangzi, who was still a primary school student, suddenly came to ask herself how much money she could earn a year after working.

At that time, Shangzi was not as difficult to deal with as he is now. With a little trick, she got the reason out of her mouth:

She wants to make money back to her adoptive parents, then leave the family and live alone.

Takikawa Tsuki recalled that her younger sister had inadvertently mentioned that Shangzi now has the habit of keeping receipts when buying things.

Is she still calculating how much she spent on adopting her parents...

"Shangzi."

Shang Zi looked over, and she was also paying attention to the expression of the big sister beside her.

Takikawa Tsuki took a slow breath, and when the words came to his lips, he omitted most of them.

"Don't tire yourself out too much."

"..."

Shangzi opened his mouth and chose to smile.

"Ok."

When the two came out of the kitchen with the processed ingredients, Naruse had already started the fire, but it wasn't particularly hot, and he was standing beside him fanning the wind.

Takikawa Tsuki put down her things, looked around, and found that her sister and her car were gone.

"What about the light?"

"I went to buy a drink." Mori said, "I just remembered that there is no drink at home."

She looked at the ingredients that the two of them had brought out.

"So much, can we really finish it?"

There should be no problem with six people...

Haixing also took a look, and when he looked away, he realized that Naruse was looking at him.

"...what are you doing?"

"It's okay." Naruse shook his head, "My hands are sore, you can fan the wind for a while."

"Oh."

Haixing took the old magazine in his hand and continued to fan it against the charcoal in the grill.

"I feel like I need a table for cups and plates and stuff."

"Let me find it."

Several people continued to be busy, and after a while, Hikaru Takikawa came back on a motorcycle.

"Is the fire already lit? It's fast."

"You've been there for a while. What did you buy? It took so long."

"Nothing, just a few bottles of juice, soda and beer."

"...you wait a minute."

Naruse looked at the bag in her hand, "Beer?"

"Could it be that Harumi hasn't had a drop of wine yet?" Takikawa Hikaru asked.

"No." He said without changing his face.

"..."

Shangzi, Morimi and Haixing all looked over.

"Then you can try it today." Hikaru Takikawa said with a smile, "It's just beer, almost like soda."

"It's not against the law to drink soda."

"It won't be discovered."

"The people in the supermarket...how could they sell it to you at the supermarket?"

"I said I bought it for Dad."

"really……"

Naruse opened the bag and looked. She didn't miss anyone. She bought a total of six cans of beer. Fortunately, they were all in 350ml bottles, which wasn't too much.

Seeing him staring at the beer without speaking, Takikawa asked, "What is Harumi thinking about?"

"I'm thinking, if I take a picture now and report you, will I be safe in the next few years?"

"Hahaha, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Naruse sighed, and Shangzi said, "Since I bought it, let's forget it... Actually, I want to taste the wine too."

"That's what Shangzi said..."

Naruse didn't say any more, "It's almost time to start the barbecue."

"Let's get started, the charcoal fire is already very hot!"

When the sun was about to set, the barbecue party in the yard of Morimi's house finally started.

First, they picked up a few slices of fresh beef and put them on the grill to roast. They opened the beer and clinked glasses.

"cheers--"

The cans collided with just a little muffled sound, and the girls reacted much louder when they drank their beer.

"Ugh..."

Takikawa Tsuki made a bitter face.

"So beer tastes like this... I suddenly don't look forward to it at the age of 20."

"This is the first time I drink beer." Hikaru Takikawa said with a smile, "Just get used to it."

"..."

She turned her head to look at her younger sister who seemed very skilled, "How many times has Guang secretly drunk?"

"Not many times."

"I'm going to tell Mom and Dad."

"Only two or three times!"

"Only two or three times?"

"Well... less than ten times."

"..."

On the other side, Shangzi sipped his beer and frowned slightly.

"It's a bit bitter..."

"It's fine if you can't drink it." Naruse said, "Give it to me."

"I will try again……"

Shangzi took another sip, but sure enough, he still couldn't accept the bitter taste.

Seeing her frown tightened, Naruse smiled and brought her beer over.

The same expression also appeared on Haixing's face, but her acceptance of beer was obviously higher than that of Shangzi and Takikawa Tsuki. After taking a sip, she frowned slightly and continued to drink.

Morimi next to him was much calmer, took a sip, and pushed his glasses again.

"The meat should be turned over."

Naruse picked up the tongs and turned over several slices of beef on the grill.

After turning back and forth for a while, the beef gradually changed color amidst the sizzling sound.

"It's ready." Naruse picked up a piece, looked at it, and put it in Shangzi's bowl.

"Thank you~"

He took another slice for himself.

The rest of the people looked at him, but he put down the clip.

"You're welcome, everyone, come on your own."

"..."

Sen Jian glanced at him and picked up the clip.

"this is my house."

"This is the meat I bought."

She ignored him, picked up a piece of meat for Hai Xing, then the Takikawa sisters, and finally herself, and then picked up some raw meat and put it on the grill to continue roasting.

"Well—it tastes really good."

Hikaru Takikawa bit the meat in his mouth, "Sure enough, the best way to cook beef is to roast it."

"The thinly sliced ​​beef tastes good when eaten raw."

"That has to be sliced ​​very thin."

While eating and talking, Naruse picked up the beer again and took a sip.

Naoko and Takikawa Tsuki had already switched to soft drinks. Morimi looked at Haixing and said, "Stop drinking, Haixing, and drink juice."

"I can drink..."

"You don't like drinking either, you'll have a sad face after taking a sip."

"Well……"

Mori Jian took the beer from her and gave her a can of soda.

"Can Yiye drink that much, give it to me." Takikawa Hikaru said.

"It's okay, just beer."

She put Starfish's can of beer in front of her, picked up the tongs again, and continued to flip the barbecue on the shelf.

"Can vegetables be grilled too?"

"Let's just wrap it in barbecue and eat it."

Eat and drink, the darker the twilight.

At a certain moment, Hikaru Takikawa suddenly got up, stood to the edge, and looked at the sky to the west.

"The sun is setting...the setting sun is so beautiful."

The color of the sky is also changing, from light yellow to light blue, and the color gradually deepens until it becomes a complete black.

Several people were sitting in the yard, surrounded by the hot grill.

All the lights in the living room have been turned on, and the light is shining outside, not too bright.

"Want to light a bonfire in the yard?" Takikawa Hikari had a whim.

"..."

Sen Jian raised his head, his gaze straightened a little.

Before she could say anything, Naruse said, "Do you want to burn her house down?"

"It's a bonfire, not a house."

"This kind of old house with pure wooden structure will be destroyed at one point, and it is beyond your control."

"It's such an exaggeration again... Okay."

Naruse glanced at the beer in front of her. Originally, the can had already been drunk, but what she was drinking now was her sister's beer.

"You're not already drunk, are you?"

"What nonsense is Chunhai talking about? It's only two cans."

"How many times have I had a drink... I really need to tell my parents." Takikawa said.

"Not much...Didn't Chunhai and Yiye also drink two cans?"

The two took Shangzi's and Haixing's beer respectively, and they had already drank more than half of it at this time.

"We haven't started talking nonsense yet."

"Let's eat more barbecue."

The person who grilled the meat has been replaced by Shang Zi, who turned over all the pork on the grill, and she picked up two pieces and put them in the Takikawa Hikari bowl.

"Thank you~"

Wrapped in a piece of fresh lettuce, she bit it down and let out a satisfied sigh.

"Eating meat is really blissful..."

"Eat more, it depends on light and starfish."

"Ok?"

"No... nothing."

Hikaru Takikawa picked up another piece of lettuce, wrapped the roast meat in it, and said:
"Shangzi and Harumi are actually going to Morioka. I'm quite familiar with it... If I go next time, I'll take you with me."

It wasn't until this afternoon that she learned that the two were going to Morioka for a few days. Naruse declined her to follow on the grounds that it was a date.Although regrettable, she didn't say much.

Shangzi smiled, "Okay."

She looked at Takikawa Yue again, "Harukai said, Sister Yue is going to leave with us tomorrow morning?"

"Yes, from here to Morioka, we should take the same route. Dad will drive us to the station tomorrow."

"Great."

Listening to the chat between the two, Naruse took another sip of beer and stood up.

"I'll go to the bathroom."

"Ah good."

After leaving the hot charcoal fire and returning to the house, he still felt a little hot on his body.

Although the concentration was very low, the alcohol still played a role after the two cans of beer went down.

After finding the bathroom and closing the door, Naruse heaved a sigh of relief.

Opening the door again, he shuddered and took half a step back.

"..."

Morimi lowered his head and leaned against the door silently.

"Want to scare people?"

"too slow……"

Clinging to his body, she squeezed into the bathroom, and suddenly grabbed him again.

"wait for me."

"..."

She closed the door, and Naruse stood outside, hearing the faint sound of water flowing inside, and walked a few steps to the side.

She came out quickly.

"What are you doing standing here?"

Naruse was taken aback.

She took a half step back with an exaggerated expression.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo."

"..."

Naruse rolled his eyes, turned and walked out.

She quickly followed, "Are you angry? I was joking."

"Drinking so much alcohol for the first time, it's normal to be a little drunk."

"If I'm really drunk..."

Her voice lowered, and her footsteps also stopped.

When Naruse turned his head, she suddenly came up to him.

"..."

Her face was so close that he could even see himself in the pair of pupils behind the lens.

The girl was slightly drunk and closed her eyes slightly.

She thought again...

Just as Naruse raised his hand, his eyes suddenly widened.

"Is Chun Hai looking forward to something?"

"..."

Taking half a step back and opening the distance, he went out without looking back.

Senjian stayed where he was, suddenly shook, and hurriedly supported the wall next to him, and touched his cheek that was heating up with the other hand.

Consciousness is still clear, and she clearly understands what she is doing.

And the voice in her heart reminding her of the consequences of doing so was suppressed to a minimum by the alcohol.

At the distance just now, she should have kissed him directly...

Morimi shook his head.

"..."

After drinking two bottles of beer, she was indeed a little drunk.

After a while, when Sen Jian returned to sit outside, Hai Xing looked at her and found some water droplets on her face.

"My head was a little dizzy, I washed my face with cold water..."

"Are you okay?"

"fine."

She smiled at her, then glanced at Naruse who was sitting across from him, he was grilling meat without looking at her.

"My stomach is a little full..." Takikawa Hikaru said.

Naruse gestured to the plate next to him, "There's still so much meat."

"You can't let me finish eating alone."

"I'm counting on you and...you guys."

"I can't take it anymore." Hikaru Takikawa picked up the beer, only to realize that he had drank not a single drop.

"Take a break."

She glanced at her companions beside her.

"Let's play something casually, and eat when we are tired."
