Chapter 108: Preview
"Tsukika-sama, tomorrow is the official competition, can you take a break today?" Natsume walked in with a cup of hot tea and said quietly. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Now the population of the Qingwan family is as high as five, so the chores at home basically don't have to worry about Yuehua, Bai and Natsume are both very good at housework, Xiang Phosphorus and Azusa are hands-on, Yuehua can devote herself to cultivation.
"It's okay, it's really hard to develop a new ninjutsu, but just studying the scroll won't be so tiring, how is your white thunder mastery?" Yuehua took the hot tea and took a sip gently, suddenly feeling a kind of comfort from the inside out.
"The white thunder has been mastered, but the success rate is not yet 100 percent, and the diffusivity of the thunder and lightning is difficult to completely restrict. Natsume replied cautiously.
"In this way, don't worry, as long as you can successfully perform it, the rest depends on the water mill to practice the form change, this is not in a hurry. Yuehua put down the teacup, and the table was full of all kinds of scrolls, not only all kinds of escape scrolls, but also illusions, physical arts, and miscellaneous arts, and there were many categories, anyway, Tuan Zang didn't care, and Yuehua brought them all back.
"Is tomorrow the official competition?" "Yuehua muttered, her eyes suddenly became fierce, "Natsume, go and find Bai and Zi and Xiang Phosphorus, we are going to meet someone." ”
Soon everyone gathered in the study, looking at Yuehua's serious expression, Bai spoke first: "Lord Yuehua, what happened?"
"Let's go see Aunt Reiko. Yuehua said very blandly.
"Huh?"
Not only Bai was stunned, but Azusa was also stunned, is this necessary to make a big fuss? I thought something was going on with such a big movement, as for Xiang Phosphorus and Natsume, they were confused, what kind of person is this "Aunt Reiko", which makes Lord Yuehua so solemn.
A bustling commercial street.
Sitting behind the counter, Reiko looked boredly at the few customers in the store, she opened a ready-to-wear store, although sometimes she would take orders to help regular customers design clothes, but because it was too troublesome, she rarely did it.
"What has that little ghost been doing lately, I feel like I rarely see him, it's really boring. With a grumble in her mouth, Reiko glanced at the scorching sun outside the house, and immediately lay on the table again, "It feels a little early to drink now, why hasn't the sun set yet!"
"Aunt Reiko. ”
"Who called me?" Reiko got up instantly, and then saw Yuehua standing in front of her, a man and three women behind her staring at her in a daze.
"Boy, it's you!Say, what's the matter?" Reiko lay on the table again, looking at Yuehua.
"That Aunt Reiko is going to participate in the middle ninja competition tomorrow, so you can go and see it then. Yuehua looked at Reiko, but Reiko was still lazy.
"Hah, I'm not interested in the Zhongnin competition, I still have to open the door to do business, how can I have the time to watch the excitement. Reiko decisively rejected Yuehua's proposal.
Speechlessly, he glanced at the empty shop, on this hot day, there are very few customers, where is there any business, Yuehua looked at Aunt Reiko lying on the table, and couldn't help sighing.
"Aunt Reiko, please, it's only tomorrow, how about it?
Xiang Phosphorus and Natsume showed a look of surprise at Yuehua's appearance, but they were very smart and didn't squeak, but they became more and more curious about who Aunt Reiko was.
Worn out the skin of the mouth, but Reiko was still unmoved, Yuehua held the counter weakly, and finally released the killer feature. "Aunt Reiko, let's be straight, why did you agree to watch my game? ”
"Really?"
"Really. ”
Reiko, who was lying lazily on the table, sat up straight slowly, stared at Yuehua with a smug smile, coughed lightly, and then said the conditions, "It's very simple, first of all, you help me settle the accounts that have been piled up before." ”
The corners of her mouth twitched, Yuehua remembered the last tragic experience, it was only a month's accounts, this time the so-called accounts that had been piled up before, I am afraid it is not so simple to solve.
"Then, accompany me to the bar tonight, since Ah Hui died, it's really boring to drink alone. Reiko looked at Yuehua with a lonely smile.
"But I don't know how to drink! Aunt Reiko, you don't know. Yuehua smiled bitterly.
"I didn't ask you to drink, you're a ninja, I know what the three prohibitions you have, you just accompany me to drink, you can drink juice and milk as you like, how about it?"
Looking at Reiko's expression, Yuehua's heart moved, thinking about some of his plans for the future, and finally nodded, although it felt a little unserious to go to an izakaya the night before the game, but it didn't matter.
Seeing Yuehua nodding, Reiko showed a reassuring smile, and then closed the door of the store very quickly, led the five people to the room in the store, and took out a thick stack of account books, which was really a thick stack.
"This is an account that has not been settled in the past two years, so you can help solve it. Smoothly threw the burden to Yuehua, Reiko sat very easily and leisurely drinking tea, watching Yuehua's five people settle the accounts.
Fortunately, because Bai is in control of the economy of the Qingwan family, he is quite good at this kind of thing, with Bai in charge, plus the help of Yuehua's four people, it only took one afternoon to get it done.
"I'm so tired, I'm tired, it's finally resolved. Xiang Phosphorus stretched and slammed on the table.
"Thank you for your hard work, then Yuehua will take a break and we will go to the bar. Reiko's eyes lit up, obviously the alcohol addiction was about to run out of patience.
Nodding helplessly, Yuehua also rested on the table, there were too many numbers, he had a headache, the most important thing was that he was not interested, if it was a matter of studying ninjutsu, he would definitely not be tired.
Night falls.
A not very prosperous izakaya, the location here is not very good, but it is also within the commercial street, and there are basically some regular customers who come here, such as Reiko.
"Wine is a good thing. Reiko drank the sake in her cup intoxicated, and laughed with a confused look in her eyes.
"Now, Yuehua, do you have a favorite of the girl who was with you today?" Reiko asked as she looked at Yuehua and was full of alcohol.
Taking a sip of juice, Yuehua looked at the drunken Aunt Reiko, rolled her eyes helplessly, and didn't bother to pay attention to her.
"Have you done it?" Reiko didn't get the answer she wanted, and instead of stopping, she intensified.
"Poof!"
The juice in her mouth squirted out, Yuehua looked at Aunt Reiko in amazement, crying and laughing, what the hell is this!
Carrying the drunk Reiko on her back, Yuehua stared at the road under her feet, "Aunt Reiko, I may have to leave the village for a while recently, just like the previous two years, I ran away without saying anything last time, and I want to talk to you this time, well, although you are drunk and don't know it..."
In the dimly lit alley, the boy's whisper dissipated in the night wind.
