The First Arrival: Chapter 482: Newlyweds' Honeymoon Journey (5)
Next chapter
Early in the morning, after Chi Shang and his nine wives enjoyed the breakfast entertained by Daitokuji Temple, the ten husband and wife left and drove towards the next city, Osaka.
Osaka has been the busiest commercial capital of Japan since ancient times, and even Japan's ongoing foreign wars have not quieted the city over the years, and it is still the place with the highest concentration of merchants, even Tokyo and Kyoto Prefecture, so it is a lively city that is perfect for honeymoons.
Kyoto Prefecture is not far from Osaka, about a few tens of kilometers, and it was enough to travel for an hour, but because of the road between the two places, Ikesho drove for nearly three hours before entering Osaka.
As soon as they entered the city, Mr. and Mrs. Chi Shang were attracted by the atmosphere, which was not as strict as other places in Japan, and the streets and alleys were full of merchants selling goods.
In this city, Ji Shang Zhenyi can't see the appearance of just ending the war, the people here are very optimistic, and they feel very relaxed here.
"It's no wonder that the military has always hated the Osaka soldiers, but the people here are indeed different from other places in Japan, and the people here don't have that kind of fanatical war heart, and they all focus on business." Ji Shang Zhenyi said softly to himself while driving.
Xingmei on the side listened to her husband's words, and thought about responding: "What my husband said is really right, the city of Osaka is completely different from other places in Japan, the people in this place have no sense of war at all, and even Hokkaido is stronger than here." ”
"Isn't that great, at least the people here live happily, and the pain of people in other cities is much smaller than that of people in other cities, who have suffered from the war." After replying to Xingmei's wife's words, Chi Shang Zhenyi slowly parked the car outside a house, which was the destination of their husband and wife's trip, Caobi's house.
As a member of the five Shinto families, the ancestral home of the Kusaka family is located in Osaka City, and Ikesho should visit it anyway.
Like the He Mao family and the Tuyumen family, it was Caobi Lanxi who came to greet Chi Shang's true intentions, but this eldest lady looked at Chi Shang Zhenyi's eyes and was not too friendly, thinking that she was still feeling the atmosphere that she had not been able to be the hostess of the Chi Shang family.
However, Chi Shang really didn't pay any attention to this, he was not in the mood to fight for the eldest lady, he was like having a happy time when he went out this time, but he couldn't stay for a long time when he opened the grass wall house like this.
As with the previous visits, Kusakabe Tadamoto greeted Chi Shang in front of the main house, and then the two entered the room to talk.
However, it seems that because he didn't marry his daughter, Kusakabe Tadashi and Chi Shang's sincere conversation this time was not as enthusiastic as before, and it became a general formal conversation.
For this change of Kusakabe Tadamoto, Chi Shang Zhenyi himself feels pretty good, and now this is the normal attitude relationship between the two parties, and it was a little too enthusiastic before.
The two sides chatted for a while, and seeing that it was getting close to noon, the conversation ended, and then Kusakabe Tadamoto entertained a sumptuous and special lunch.
For this lunch, Ji Shang Zhenyi felt quite satisfied, because it was the most distinctive meal he had eaten since his honeymoon.
The dishes served by Tadamoto Kusakabe are all local snacks such as takoyaki, crab hot pot, omnivorous skewers, okonomiyaki, eel tempura, seafood udon, and sashimi and sushi, which are essential for Japanese dinner.
(Takoyaki, which is now popular all over the world, is actually an Osaka specialty, and was first produced by Ruyoshi Endo, the founder of the Osaka takoyaki specialty store "Aizuya".) At first, Endo Ruyoshi added meat and konjac to mixed wheat flour batter and fried it and sold it at food stalls. In 1935, he began using octopus as an ingredient and adding flavor to the batter, and the takoyaki balls were very popular. Known for its crispy skin and tender meat, delicious taste and low price, it has become a well-known national quintessential snack in Japan. )
(Crab hot pot is a very special dish in Japan, this dish is different in each city, some cities like to use king crab, some like to use flying crab, different crab roe make hot pot taste is not the same, plus different ingredients, which causes each place to have local characteristics of crab hot pot.) )
(Omnivorous skewers, a famous snack in the Osaka area, are made by wrapping beef tendon, eggplant, prawns, etc. in potato flour, boiling it with white miso, and then frying it in hot oil.) It has the characteristics of crisp but not oily, sweet and tender, and is a very special snack. )
(Okonomiyaki, also known as okonomiyaki, is a casual vegetable pancake that mixes the batter, puts your favorite vegetables in it, and then puts it in a frying pan and drizzles it with a special sauce when it is golden brown, so it is an authentic okonomiyaki.) )
(Tempura, the most common side dish for a light Japanese meal.) Shrimp, fish, vegetables, etc. are swirled in a circle in a flour batter and then fried in oil to make a steaming tempura with different flavors. )
(Udon, an important staple dish in Japan, is famous in Japan and is loved by all walks of life.) )
For this characteristic lunch, not only Chi Shang really ate it coolly, but the nine girls also ate it very well, and after the meal, the ten husband and wife all had a round belly.
For Chi Shang Zhenyi's good appetite for his wife, as a single Miss Caobi, she felt quite uncomfortable in her heart, and in her eyes, none of the ten people in front of her were good people.
The man lived up to her true feelings, and the women were all little vixens, and they would only be flattering, especially the one from the Huakaiyuan family, who actually became someone's inner wife in order to marry into the Chi Shang family, which is really bottomless.
What made Miss Caobi even more angry was that the ten couples were actually quite affectionate, and this scene directly ignited the small flame in her heart.
In order to let Chi Shang Zhenyi see clearly what kind of excellent girl she is, Miss Caobi proposed a competition of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting to Xingmei after dinner.
Japan, as a country that has long been influenced by China, has embraced all those ancient traditions.
As the eldest lady of the Caobi family and Xingmei, who was born in the Huakaiyuan family, the two daughters are very familiar with the poetry and painting of Qinqi and chess, but as a family of onmyoji, the poetry and painting of Qinqi that they want to compare are very different from the traditional.
The poems and paintings of the onmyoji are not only important to each other, but more importantly, the word 'fight', compared with the two, only the other party can be regarded as winning, otherwise it can only be regarded as losing.
Miss Caobi, who opened her mouth to propose the competition, although there was a small flame in her heart, she still did not forget the basic etiquette, Chi Shang Zhenyi and his wife came to the door as guests, and the guests naturally came first.
The two women were five meters apart, and a guqin was placed on the low table in front of each of them, and Caobi Lanxi said politely to Chi Shangxingmei opposite: "The guests start first." ”
For Caobi Lanxi's desire, Chi Shang Xingmei did not refuse, and directly plucked the strings in front of him, and suddenly a beautiful note came out from between his ten fingers.
At the same time
When Chi Shang Xingmei started fifteen seconds, Miss Caobi fluctuated the guqin in front of her, and suddenly a sound different from the other party came out of the guqin, which was also mixed with energy in the sound.
And the strange thing is that when the two piano sounds are mixed together, the people sitting in the room don't feel a trace of chaos and quarrel, the two piano sounds are like two streams of water, and they actually magically and slowly blend together, and slowly the piano sound in the room disappears strangely.
The vanishing sound did not surprise everyone in the room, and everyone seemed to be still listening to the music, and their eyes closed slightly, so that after nearly five minutes, the two women pressed their hands on the strings at the same time, and stopped the silent fight.
Chi Shang Xingmei wiped the fine sweat on her forehead slightly, looked at Caobi Lanxi on the opposite side and said: "Miss Caobi's piano skills are really strong, Xingmei is not an opponent when she takes the lead, and in the end, my piano sound has been completely swallowed by my sister's piano sound, and I am willing to bow down in this game." ”
Hearing Chi Shangxing's beauty say the words of bowing to the wind, Caobi Lanxi **** said with a smug look: "Mrs. Chi Shang is polite, after all, people have strengths, everyone has different advantages, maybe Mrs. Xingmei will win the next three games, hehe~"
Chi Shang Zhenyi, who was sitting behind his wife, looked at the proud Miss Caobi who looked like a little peacock on the opposite side, he had to admit that the other party was qualified to be proud, just now his wife was fighting the piano with the other party, and in the end, his mind had completely become the other party's tune, and there was no Xingmei's voice at all.
What's more important is that after listening to a song by this Miss Caobi, Chi Shang Zhenyi felt that his spiritual power had been slightly condensed, and this change was obviously the credit of this Miss Caobi.
In the past, when I saw the introduction of the battle between qin, chess, poetry and painting in the family inheritance, I always thought it was a boring competition between cultivators, but today I saw it differently. Chi Shang Zhenyi said secretly in his heart, and then his eyes fell on the two girls who were fighting again.
The Go board that the subordinate replaced was placed between the two women, and the two glanced at each other, and finally Ji Shang Xingmei took the lead and occupied the Tianyuan position. Then Miss Caobi followed closely and occupied the eight stars.
Next, the fall between the two women became faster and faster, and from the perspective of ordinary people, it seemed to be an ordinary Go fight, but from the eyes of a cultivator, it was different.
In Chi Shang's eyes, all the chess pieces of the two women have a layer of misty energy light, and the energy light on these chess pieces is constantly eroding towards each other's chess pieces, and the chess pieces between the two sides seem to be really like soldiers on the town, attacking and killing each other, as long as someone is a little careless, the chess pieces will end up broken and shattered.
The two girls are not just playing chess now, but more in Doubi to cultivate each other's endurance, and they have their own energy control, this chess game is far from being as simple as it seems.
For Go Chi Shang Zhenyi can be said to be Bai Ding, he can only be regarded as a beginner, not proficient at all, he can't see the situation of the two women, but he can see the situation of the energy battle between the two sides on the field.
'This time Xingmei has a big chance. ’
As soon as the idea in Chi Shang Zhenyi's heart fell, there was a change on the chessboard, and the white son of the single Miss Caobi suddenly broke three pieces one after another, and each of these three chess pieces was very important, and the chess game that the two sides could not hold each other suddenly had a huge change, and the overall form fell in the direction of Xingmei.
Seeing that the three chess pieces were broken one after another, the fine sweat on Caobi Lanxi's forehead immediately increased and began to save it immediately, but there were three gaps in the dam, and it was impossible to block it again, and Xingmei would not give her this chance at all.
The chess game took less than twenty moves, and Miss Kusakabe's chess was strangled to death by Xingmei, and the whole chess game was lost.
Without the pride of winning before, Caobi Lanxi stared at Chi Shang Xingmei opposite at this time, as if he wanted to see the other party clearly, and his eyes did not blink.
For Miss Caobi's gaze, Chi Shang Xingmei didn't feel uncomfortable, and said with a slight smile on her face: "Thank you Miss Caobi just now for wanting to let me." ”
"I didn't want to let it, but I was not as good as you in that game of chess just now, I didn't expect you to be so strong in subtle control, I didn't lose unjustly, but you have to pay attention to this next game." For Chi Shang Xingmei's politeness, Caobi Lanxi did not continue, although he was arrogant, he could still afford to lose.
After a while, the subordinates of the Caobi family placed the pen, ink, paper and inkstone in front of the two girls.
"The first two times were all Xingmei's first moves, and the last two times will be Miss Kusakabe's first, and the title of this writing will be written by Miss Kusakabe." Ji Shang Xingmei stretched out his hand to make way.
Reaching out to grind the grass wall, Lanxi, hearing Chi Shang Xingmei's words, his eyebrows jumped slightly, and he did not postpone and said: "Since this is the case, then the two of us will each write a flying bird fu." ”
After Caobi Lanxi's voice fell, the two women lowered their heads at the same time and began to write, each with extremely focused expressions, writing every word as if a lot of strength had been wasted.
Under Chi Shang's sincere gaze, every word written by the two women had a thick layer of energy on it, as if they were writing a depicting talisman.
After about half an hour, the two women stopped the brush in their hands at the same time, and then each reached into his arms and took out his seal letter and stamped it under the calligraphy, and then got up and handed his work to the other party for sealing.
After retrieving her calligraphy, a slight smile appeared at the corner of Chi Shang Xingmei's mouth, under her gaze, under her calligraphy, the mark covered by the grass wall Lanxi, the handwriting was almost invisible, which meant that the energy in the flying bird fu she had just written had repelled the other party's xenogeneous energy.
And the mark she just stamped on the other party's calligraphy was much clearer than that, which showed that the energy in the other party's calligraphy just now did not contain much, and it was not enough to expel her mark at all.
In this way, the outcome of this game is naturally clear.
