Chapter 1371: The Gift That Didn't Be Given

Like most people, Yamamoto's birthday celebration was uncomplicated, with everyone eating, drinking, playing and playing games together, and the morning passed.

After singing the birthday song and eating the cake, under the instigation of everyone, the most favorite part came, which was to open the gift.

In fact, Japanese people don't give gifts because of how expensive they are, but if they are just right and popular with the owner, it is undoubtedly the best. Moreover, it is best to give gifts in private, not in public.

Similarly, the same is true for opening gifts, which should be opened in private rather than in public, but because of everyone's instigation, Yamamoto is not rude.

The gifts were gathered and piled up all over the coffee table, and the packaging boxes were large and small, but without exception, they were all very delicately and beautifully packaged, which after all, was a material manifestation of the other party's heart, and no one would treat it casually.

"Let's get started. Fukuyuan Naomi encouraged on the side.

"Hmm. Yamamoto, who was a little nervous and expectant, answered, and reached out to pick up a palm-sized gift box piled on top.

Unwrap the outside, inside is a cardboard box, and then open the carton, the gift finally shows its true face.

It is a crystal ball, the size of a fist, and inside the ball, a colorful underwater world is presented in front of everyone's eyes, fish, shrimp, crabs, turtles...... There are all kinds of creatures, and they come to life. With a slight shake, all the creatures under the sea moved, as if they were swimming in real life.

"It was so cute, I loved it. Yamamoto Takene picked up the crystal ball and said excitedly, although this is just an ordinary handicraft, it is very delicate, and it has a certain attraction for girls, and it is undoubtedly a pleasing thing to put on the bedside.

"It's good if you like it. It was one of her classmates who answered, and she was equally happy that the gift she had given was praised by the owner, which showed that she had done it properly.

Yamamoto carefully put away the crystal ball and opened the second gift box, which was a picture scroll.

The picture scroll is not long, only more than 70 centimeters, about 30 centimeters wide, the content is a landscape map, at the foot of a lonely mountain, there is a big tree, under the tree is an old man who is fishing, in front of the old man is a stream flowing through the lonely mountain.

The whole painting looks very elegant, there is a sense of tranquility, in the upper right corner of the painting, there are also a few lines of poetry, the poem is written in Chinese characters, the people present can not understand, but they do not know the sense.

Yamamoto also didn't know the kanji on it, but for the gift, of course, she wouldn't dislike it, and expressed her satisfaction.

A girl next to her also took the initiative to introduce: "This is called "Fishing Map", which was painted by a very famous painter in ancient China. She seems to have a half-understood understanding of China, and has a vague explanation of the origin of the painting, which is clearly a gift from her.

"Thank you, Tomoko. Yamamoto thanked her.

Only Li Xuehao on the side had a strange gaze and forced a smile, this is not a painting painted by a famous painter in ancient times, in fact, it is just a "copy", not even a handicraft, I don't know if the girl who gave the gift was fooled by someone, or she relied on a little "Chinese" knowledge to get it from.

Seeing this, Li Xuehao couldn't help but think of a big joke on TV some time ago, a treasure appreciation program identified a tea bowl, said to be an antique in the Southern Song Dynasty, and was listed as a Japanese national treasure tea bowl, worth 25 million yen, but was slapped in the face a year later, a Chinese aunt was shocked when she saw it, and felt incredible, because the tea bowl she made was worth so much money......

Of course, Li Xuehao will not expose similar jokes in front of him, after all, in that case, it will not only be the girl who gives the gift, but even Yamamoto will be embarrassed.

Skipping this, Yamamoto opened the third gift, which was a rectangular box more than a foot long, and when opened, it was a black brush.

In Japan, writing with a brush is called "calligraphy", and "calligraphy" is a compulsory course in schools, and children learn to write with a brush from an early age, which proves that writing calligraphy is very popular in Japan, such as the New Year's calligraphy competition, and such as the New Year's pen test and so on.

Therefore, in Japan, it is not shabby to give a brush, which is also a blessing and encouragement.

"Thank you, Milie. Yamamoto also expressed his gratitude to the author for sending him.

Next, the gifts were presented to everyone one by one, and there was basically nothing too out of the ordinary, even Ryota Yamamoto gave a cute doll in a proper manner, instead of the box of strawberry-flavored drinks he was going to give at the beginning.

To be honest, Li Xuehao would like to see that kind of coke picture, it will be very exciting, of course, for Yamamoto Ryota, it may be a very bad memory.

"Like...... I didn't see someone's gift. After all the gifts were opened, Naomi Fukuyuan on the side looked at someone thoughtfully and said.

Li Xuehao was a little uncomfortable with her, his gift had not been given yet, and he was originally going to wait until he went out with Yamamoto Ina, but Fukuyuan Naomi seemed to want to see his gift, and she was the first to instigate Yamamoto Akine to open the gift, otherwise everyone would not dare to make such a suggestion in front of her, the head of the third-year senior kendo club.

"Who didn't give a gift?" Ryota Yamamoto asked loudly like a fool, how could anyone not give a gift on his sister's birthday? But after asking, he suddenly reacted, among the many gifts his sister received, none of the gifts were very valuable, which was not in line with someone's behavior, and after being stunned for a moment, he looked over, "Manaka, is it you?"

"Ahem......" Li Xuehao was asked directly, a little embarrassed, he didn't want to take it out in public, mainly because it was too eye-catching. But at this time, he couldn't stay until he was alone with Yamamoto Ina, especially since Yamamoto was still looking at him expectantly.

Taking out a delicate small box from his pocket, not very large enough for a person to wrap with his hands, he handed it to Yamamoto Akine.

"Xuanyin, open it up and take a look, what is it?" Her classmates and friends on the side were a little impatient, after all, this was given by her lover, although it didn't seem to be a big gift, but it seemed to be very precious.

Naomi Fukuenya also stared at the delicate and small gift box slightly, and Ryota Yamamoto looked excited, finally seeing the precious gift that Manaka gave to her sister.
