I Loaded the Love Game

Chapter 207: New Year's Day in Iwate Prefecture: Parents' Views (4)

After visiting the house, the three returned to the living room.

   Kiyino Rin loses interest in the game and sits in the furnace reading a book.

   Toru Watanabe plugs in "Contra" to the red and white machine and breaks through the level with Miki Kujo.

   "Let's walk in the water."

   "Miki, do you want this S bullet?"

   "There is an invincible here. Can you eat it? Ah, I ran."

   "Contra" was cleared, and after playing "Teenage Ninja Turtles 2" and "Blood Fighting", Kujo Miki was sleepy and lay on her side to sleep.

   Watanabe Toru plays "The Heavy Soldier" alone.

   About two hours later, Akane began to appear on the horizon, and Watanabe’s mother came back.

  Mizawa Village is far from the nearest town.

   "Little Toru, come and help mom peel the peas!"

"Great!"

   "I'll help." Kiyono Rin prepares to get up.

   "No need, Rin, you sit down."

   "Come here quickly." Watanabe's mother confessed Watanabe Toru and went to the kitchen.

   After a while, Watanabe's mother shouted again without seeing Toru Watanabe.

   "Kotoru——?"

"I'm coming!"

   After a while, Watanabe’s mother rushed over from the kitchen.

   "Toru, what are you doing?" Mom scolded.

   The two beautiful girls also looked at Watanabe Toru.

   "It's coming soon." Watanabe Toru manipulated the handle with a focused expression, "I'll get the Red Wolf tank soon!"

   "......"

   Mom Watanabe walked over and turned off the TV directly.

   "Ah-my tank! My lifelong dream! Mom, what are you doing?"

   "Guests from home, I don't know how to be more diligent! Come and help!"

   Watanabe Toru put down the handle and stood up from the quilt helplessly.

   He followed Watanabe out of the living room and walked towards the kitchen.

   "Didn't Kiyano say she did it? You just let her do it."

   "Let the guests do it? Lay there and play games by yourself? How can I teach you?"

   "That won't let them eat for nothing, right?"

   "What do you kid think all day? Are you planning to collect money from them? By the way, after peeling the peas, go to the field and pull some carrots back."

   "Carrot, white radish?"

   "Which one Rin and Miki like to eat..."

   The two people in the living room can hear the conversation between mother and son.

   When dinner was almost ready, Toru Watanabe's father returned.

   A man who was taciturn, but drank with a man in the village, and likes to brag loudly, always wearing a pair of old rubber shoes, called Watanabe Tsuneo.

   "Dad, did you go delivery?"

   "Hmm." Watanabe Tsuneo nodded.

   He took off his rubber shoes on his own, and had no response to his son who had been to Tokyo for more than half a year.

   "I brought my girlfriend back this time."

"Ok."

   "There is another classmate."

   Tsuneo Watanabe didn't even say anything, and nodded ‘I got it’.

   "You two, come and help serve the food!" Watanabe's mother's voice came from the kitchen.

   "Got it!" Watanabe replied thoroughly.

   Tsuneo Watanabe didn't say a word, but went to the kitchen with Toru Watanabe.

   Watanabe's father is such a taciturn person.

   But even so, he will raise rice paddy ducks for his son and send them to Tokyo specially.

   At dinner, Toru Watanabe introduced the two beautiful girls again, but he didn't respond.

   Compared with Rin Kiyano, he said one more thing to Miki Kujo:

   "Archer is causing you trouble."

   Toru Watanabe wanted to tell his father that Miki Kujo had caused him more trouble than he had added to her.

   "Alright, alright," Watanabe's mother said with a smile, "Hurry up and eat."

   A long wooden table, Watanabe's father sits on the head, Watanabe's mother and Rin Kiyano sit on the side, Watanabe Toru and Miki Kujo sit on the side.

   Two beautiful girls face each other.

   Before saying "I started", Kujo Miki looked at the tableware in front of her.

   "Is this new?" she asked.

   Watanabe's mother looked at her questioningly, and subconsciously replied, "No."

   Kujo Miki turned to Watanabe Toru.

   "I just prepared to give you mine." Watanabe Toru exchanged the tableware and dishes of the two, "This is for my exclusive use. No one has used it."

   Kujo Miki glanced at the bowls and chopsticks in Watanabe's parents' hands. They were indeed different in color, and she nodded in satisfaction.

   Watanabe Kee looked at this scene, looking at Watanabe's father with a vague look.

   Watanabe's father did not see it.

"I'm gonna start now."

   After expressing gratitude for the food, I started to have dinner.

   Watanabe took a bite of the meal and ate two bites of food, and asked the two of them, "Are you eating habits?"

   "It's okay." Kujo Miki said.

   Qing Ye Rin drank a sip of radish stew, and ate fried mushrooms, and said contentedly:

   "Fresh vegetables, tender and delicious, I like them very much."

   "Eat more if you like, there is still in the kitchen." Watanabe's mother said happily.

   "Thank you, Auntie, maybe you really want to add food." After that, she was a little bit distressed, "But I will gain weight, so forget it."

   "You are so thin, I think at least another ten kilograms of fat will be considered normal." Watanabe Toru said.

   "Watanabe-san, you don't understand girls' weight... so smelly!" Kiyano Rinxue wrinkled her small face, covering her nose.

   Father Watanabe, who was stirring natto, was there in a daze.

   Watanabe's mother patted the table and laughed, full of the boldness of country women.

   "This..." Watanabe's father didn't know what to do, so he said without thinking carefully, "I made it at home, it's delicious, do you want it?"

   Kiyano Rin shook his head vigorously: "Sorry, I can't stand natto."

   "That..." Watanabe's father hesitated, preparing to abandon the natto that he had at every meal for forty years.

   "Please don't care, uncle." Rin Kiyano pinched his nose and said in a strange voice, "I'll just get used to it."

   Watanabe's father hesitated for three seconds, continued to stir the natto, and then poured it into the rice bowl.

   "Ahahaha!" Watanabe's mother couldn't smile, "Rin is so cute!"

   "Auntie, I didn't pretend to be cute on purpose, but I am really cute."

   "I understand, I understand, I can't stand natto for so many years with his father! It's too stinky!"

   Saying that the vegetables are fresh and delicious, Rin Kiyano is not trying to please; natto smells unpleasant, nor is she deliberately picking things up, she only tells the truth.

   But with her etiquette, she shouldn’t just say “it smells good”, but the Natto made by Watanabe’s is really too stinky.

   Kujo Miki also frowned and warned Toru Watanabe: "You are not allowed to eat that thing."

   "Why?" Watanabe Toru does not eat natto, but is curious about the reason.

   "Why do you ask so much? This is an order."

   "Well, listen to you."

   Watanabe's father was eating natto bowls in silence. No matter what the three women said, he ate it very well.

   The only pity is that his son did not inherit this tradition.

   Watanabe's technique of making natto will be lost from his generation.

   "That's right," Watanabe's father remembered something, "Do you still plan to do the postman job?"

   "Do it." Watanabe drank the soup and said to his mother, ‘add another bowl’-Rin Kiyono hesitated and ordered a bowl, "It’s okay in the morning anyway."

   "Yeah." Watanabe's father stopped talking.

   After eating, two beautiful girls took a shower in the bathroom upstairs.

   It was that Watanabe Toru was not used to soaking in a bathtub with his family and asked his parents to help build it.

   Although the little girl is a little smaller, thanks to it, the bathing problem of the two eldest ladies has been solved.

   "I'm very tired today, you guys rest early, and tomorrow you sleep late, I will take you around the village."

"OK, good night."

   Toru Watanabe went downstairs and wanted to talk to his parents for a while and then go to bed later.

   Afraid of making noise to the two upstairs, he stepped lightly and when he went to the living room, he heard the conversation between his parents.

   "His father, how do you feel about Miki's kid?"

   Watanabe Toru did not go in, hiding outside the living room.

   "How about what?" Watanabe's father asked.

   "That kid seems to despise us very much," Watanabe's mother said.

   "Where do you look down?"

   "Can't you see? She didn't touch the things we used, towels and chopsticks. I helped Xiao Che clean up the room today. When I came back to see, the quilts on the stove were replaced with new ones."

   "Do you care if she dislikes or dislikes her? She lives with Archer, as long as she doesn't dislike Archer."

   "But we are Toru's parents."

   "Will Archer live with us in this country in the future?" Watanabe's father asked.

   "Definitely not, how is this possible? Toru can't learn from Reiko."

   Reiko, an older young woman in the village.

   After going to university, I didn't find a job, so I ran back from Osaka to work.

   After the school teacher retired, she only came on the bench and got a formal job. She was lazy every day and didn't get married.

  I can't blame her for getting married.

   There are no young men in the village. If she wants to get married, besides marrying an old man, only Toru Watanabe, who is a teenager, is left.

   Watanabe's mother didn't look down on Reiko, and the relationship between the two was even very good. She just didn't want Watanabe Toru to be like her.

   Today, with a declining birthrate, Mizawa Village may have no young people living here since Watanabe Toru’s generation.

  Since she has to leave, she hopes Watanabe Toru can go to Tokyo and find a comfortable and high-paying job.

"That's all right?" Watanabe's father's voice was steady, not rushing, "The people in the city look down on the country folks, and it's not Maki's child alone, but she can accept Archer, doesn't it mean that she likes him very much? Isn’t it enough to like each other when the two are together?"

   "But I watched that kid and drank to Xiao Che."

   Watanabe’s father didn’t deny it, saying, “It’s okay if Archer is in charge of someone.”

   "But that's too much control, right? Didn't you listen to her tone of voice? It's like ordering a servant."

   "Archer is handsome and excellent in all aspects. He is not a strong wife, and I don't know what to do in the future."

   "How could my son do that kind of thing!"

  ‘I’m sorry, mom. Toru Watanabe, who overheard outside the living room, apologized silently.

   He didn't want to do that kind of thing at first. He wanted to be a dedicated person. For this reason, he rejected Mai Mai several times, but in the end, he still couldn't help it.

   "He doesn't do anything, but women will do it. Can he reject one and two, but can he promise to reject all women?" Watanabe Tsuneo said.

   "That's true." Watanabe echoed unwillingly.

   The living room was silent for a while.

   Toru Watanabe prepared to pretend to have just arrived and walked in.

   "His father, how do you feel about Xiao Rin's child?"

   The mother's words in a low voice made Watanabe Toru stop again.

   "Very cute kid." Watanabe's father replied perfunctorily.

   Watanabe’s mother was very interested and said in a slightly excited tone:

   "I think that kid is very nice, polite, cute, quiet, and can chat with Toru very well."

"Ok."

   "And I think she can control Kotoru."

   "You still blame Miki's murderous Archer, I think that should be done." Watanabe's father said.

   "Do you feel that Rin is not good?" Watanabe lowered his voice, "I would rather let her be a daughter-in-law."

   After speaking, Watanabe laughed happily as if he had seen Rin Kiyano calling her mother.

   "Archer's own business will be his own in the days to come." This is Watanabe's father's view on this matter.

   "I'll find an opportunity to ask Xiao Toru and see what he thinks of Xiao Rin."

  The conversation about two beautiful girls ends here.

   Watanabe asked about her husband's delivery during the day, and then talked about preparations for the New Year, and discussed buying more expensive ingredients to entertain Kujo Miki and Kiyano Rin.

   Until Watanabe Toru married, Watanabe did not ask him about Rin Kiyano.

   Maybe her husband’s previous words didn’t make her know what kind of answer she wanted to hear from Watanabe Toru.

   December 26, the first day Watanabe returned to Iwate Prefecture.

   He got up early and took up a part-time job as a postman.

   This job started after he was in junior high school in order to buy a very expensive tutoring book.

   Before doing this, after he quit, the postman in Mizawamura has always been his father.

  I will continue to do it now, just to let his parents know that he is a hard-working child, and there is no need to worry about him too much.

   Besides, he got used to getting up early, so he could find something to do.

Before dawn.

   The Honda Coyote crossed the field road and crossed the small bridge over the creek. On both sides were mountain roads with towering trees. The cold wind blew on Watanabe's face.

   "My love has gone with the south wind——"

  ◇

   After changing the pillows, Rin Kiyono fell asleep late and woke up early in the morning.

   After opening his eyes, I didn't hear Tokyo's voice. There was a bird's song outside the window, and the steady breathing of Nine Miki beside me could be heard.

   She woke up softly, changed her clothes, and went downstairs.

   Watanabe’s mother is cooking breakfast in the kitchen.

   "Rin?" At the sound of footsteps, Watanabe's mother raised her head, "Why don't you get up so early, why don't you sleep a little longer?"

   "Good morning, Auntie." After greeting, Rin Kiyano explained, "I am not used to sleeping after changing my pillow."

   "What should I do then?" Watanabe's mother was very worried, and her work stopped.

   "It doesn't matter, it only takes one night, and the next day will be fine." This is the experience gained from the summer vacation of the wind club.

   "That's good." Watanabe's mother nodded comfortably, and continued to process the cooking.

   Kiyino Rin walked over, rolled up his sleeves, exposed white wrists, and helped wash the vegetables.

   After a while, she asked, "Where is Watanabe-san?"

   For some reason, Watanabe’s mother seemed very happy that she asked.

   "The kid went to deliver the letter."

   "Send a letter?"

   "Well, the postman works part-time. The reference books used by Kotoru junior high school are all he bought for this job and saved money."

   Kiyino Rin nodded.

   "Auntie Ed, what kind of kid was Watanabe-san when he was a kid?"

   "He..."

  ◇

   There is a melodious flute sound in the distance.

   On the tall Tianlong, a bob-headed girl is practicing in front of the rising sun.

   "So hardworking?" Watanabe Toru stopped the Honda Wolf in front of the girl.

   Ayako Honma put down the flute and glanced at him suspiciously: "Watanabe?"

   "It's my uncle." Watanabe Toru took off his helmet and put his elbows on the handlebars of the car.

   "When did you come back!" Ayako Honma patted Watanabe's shoulder vigorously.

   If it had been a year ago, Toru Watanabe would have hugged his shoulder and cried out for pain.

   "Yesterday." Watanabe looked at the silver flute in her hand, "What's the situation?"

   "What else can happen? I will be in my third year of high school next year. It is the last semester. I must enter the national competition, so I don't leave any regrets for my youth."

   "Ah." Watanabe looked bored at the blue sky, "I dominated the country in the first grade, what should I do next."

   "Do you want to die?!"

   "Isn't this Archer?" From the direction of Ayako Honma's house, a middle-aged man carrying a **** came.

   "Uncle Honma," Watanabe turned to take out a letter from the bag, "I have your letter."

   Uncle Honma took the letter, muttered, ‘It’s the utility bill again,’ raised his head and said to Toru Watanabe:

   "Archer, I heard that in what competition you are playing, you won first place?"

   "It's not the first, it's just the gold medal." Ayako Honma corrected.

   "The gold medal is not the first!" Uncle Honma retorted in a tone of "daughter, don't talk foolishly".

   "Yes, I am the number one." Watanabe Toru said with a smile.

   Ayako Honma pouted her lips.

   Uncle Honma put the letter in his pocket, patted Toru Watanabe on the shoulder, and praised:

   "True smart people are different. Even if you go to Tokyo, you can get ahead. I have long seen you as a genius."

   "There, there."

   "Come to my house later, the persimmons your aunt made this year are very sweet."

   "You must go." Watanabe Toru put on his helmet, "Uncle Honma, I sent the letter."

"Great!"

   "Ayako, come on, don't leave any regrets for youth~"

   Ayako Honma kicked the rear wheel of the Honda Wolf.

   After sending the letter, Watanabe Toru returned home and smelled the aroma of breakfast.

   "Mom, I'm starving to death, are you okay?" Watanabe Toru yelled and took off his helmet.

   "It's almost done~www.ltnovel.com~ Watanabe replied without lifting his branch, "Is it cold to ride? "

   "Fortunately, the feet are a bit cold."

   Toru Watanabe put on indoor shoes and walked into the kitchen.

   Kiyino Rin rolled his sleeves, helping to stir the stew.

   She wore a light pink loose sweater, a beige dress that reached her ankles, and her hair was loosely tied into a bunch and attached to her back.

   looks gentle and relaxed, very beautiful.

   "Get up so early? By the way," Watanabe remembered something, "Mom, Kiyano only eats half-boiled eggs. Don't fry them all."

   After finishing speaking, he looked at Kiyano Rin, ready to ask her why she got up so early.

   As a result, Kiyano Rin was smiling and looking at him. It was a gentle smile like a spring breeze.

   "What's wrong?" Watanabe asked her strangely, "My hair is messed up?"

   "It's a bit messy." Rin Kiyano said with a smile.

   "Then I have to sort it out."

   Watanabe tore out of the kitchen, Watanabe asked with a low smile and asked Kiyano Rin:

   "How did Toru know that you only eat half-boiled eggs?"

   "I knew that I had breakfast together on a school trip." Rin Kiyono remembered the scene at the time and couldn't help but smiled and said, "At that time, we were still quarreling about being fully cooked or half cooked."

   "Fight?"

"Ok."

   Watanabe Kee looked at the smile on Kiyano Rin's face, and didn't ask any more, just followed with a smile.
