When Shanyou spoke, Satoko kept smiling and watching her husband not speak, and her face was full of affection.

Xiao Hai heard this and said, "It turns out that the wasabi I ate today is so precious, it seems that I have to eat it very cherished."

Thank you very much for your hospitality. ”

After listening to this, Ying Ying realized that today Lizi and his wife took out such a valuable thing to entertain them, and she was even more grateful and moved.

is so sincere, I don't know how to repay it in the future.

At this time, Tinglizi smiled and said: "Actually, I took out this wasabi tree that I have never been willing to eat today, because my son will be back in a few days."

We have half of us left for him today. ”

After that, her eyes narrowed into a slit, and her eyes revealed full of love for her son.

"It turns out that you have a son, is he working now?" asked Xiaohai politely.

"He's still in college, and he's just in his second year of college.

However, it's already an adult, and you'll see it in a few days. ”

With pride in her eyes, Lizi casually glanced at Yingying, and the corners of her mouth seemed to be smiling, with deep meaning.

Ying Ying was glanced at like this, although she didn't understand the meaning of Lizi, but she was still a little confused.

Satoko's family is so good to her, so she takes everything and every action of Satoko to heart, and always wants to find an opportunity to repay their kindness.

This night, after dinner, Lizi brought out the cake bought by Xiaohai and used it as a dessert for everyone, and everyone ate it with laughter.

That night, Xiaohai left, Yingying sent each other on crutches, and under Xiaohai's strong persuasion, she had to stop at the door.

The moonlight was bright, and the outside was silvery white.

Xiao Hai looked at Yingying, who was silently leaning against the wall admiring the moonlight.

He suddenly opened his mouth and said, "I heard Mrs. Ito say that you will go to the local high school in a few days. ”

Ying Ying nodded.

Xiaohai said again: "When you arrive in a new environment, you must not be able to adapt to it, so send me a text message in time if you have something."

I'm right across the street from your high school, so I can go over at any time. ”

Ying Ying nodded again and smiled.

"That'...... I'm leaving. Xiao Hai said and glanced at Yingying.

Ying Ying still nodded, did not speak, but there seemed to be some reluctance in her eyes.

Xiao Hai was most afraid of seeing Yingying's eyes.

The big clear and transparent eyes, floating with melancholy, hidden stubbornness, like magnets, firmly attracted his gaze.

He suddenly shook his whole body, mustered up all his courage, kissed Yingying lightly on the cheek, and then turned around and ran away.

Ying Ying showed a surprised expression, and when she reacted, Xiao Hai had already run away.

She stretched out her right hand and stroked the cheek that had been kissed, now hot as a boiling kettle.

For a moment, her heart swelled with countless sweetness, as if she was surrounded by flowers.

But the joy passed quickly, and she looked up at the moon in the distance, and sighed slightly.

She hid too many secrets in her heart and didn't tell Xiaohai.

The lost jade pendant, the grandfather's serious illness, and his mysterious and unknown life experience......

She didn't know if this sunny boy should bear these secrets, these heavy burdens with her.

A burden that shouldn't have been borne by a young girl like her......

Ying Ying stood quietly in the moonlight for a moment, and then walked slowly back to the house on crutches.

Xiao Hai was standing in the distance at the moment, and when he saw Ying Ying entering the house safely, he left with confidence.

He didn't know what was going on in Yingying's mind.

At this time, a sweet smile hung on the corner of his mouth, as if his heart was suddenly filled with sunshine.

****

After three days, Yingying's leg injury is basically healed, and Satoko wants to take her to the town shopping street to buy some supplies for school.

Ying Ying saw the colorful flags fluttering on both sides of the street and asked Lizi why.

Satoko replied with a smile, "This is set up for the Kashima Festival, which will be held at the end of May.

It's still a little over a month away, but it's the biggest event in the town every year, so it was set up early.

There are a lot of people participating, girls and boys wearing beautiful kimonos, and there is a contest to choose the best kimono lady. ”

With that, she looked at Yingying, winked at her, and said:

"By the way, today I just stopped by and took you to the kimono master's house to measure your figure, so that I can also make you a kimono to participate in the Kashima Festival. ”

Ying Ying listened, her eyes widened, and she thought that a kimono must be very expensive.

I'm only here for a while, so there's no need to waste this money on me.

She shook her hand vigorously and said to Riko in English, "Thank you, but don't ...... it."

Satoko pursed her lips and smiled: "You are a good age, you look and are outstanding, you have to have a beautiful kimono to be perfect." Think of it as a souvenir. ”

No matter how Ying Ying excused herself, it was useless, so she had to arrange it with her heart, and she was grateful and uneasy in her heart.

Early in the morning, Bian San and Inu Feng casually caught a few voles to satisfy their hunger, and then went on the road.

These days, as the crows are rampant during the day, they are cautious and walk in the barren and abandoned fields.

"Next, we will arrive at Okuyugawa, which is the terminus of the train I was on. Bian San said, and Inu Feng understood.

It will also be the last town they search.

There are no roads beyond that, only mountains.
