Nakajima was not welcome, Muto and Tanabe followed, stood in the house for a while, felt bored and walked out again,. Qb(5) and COM\nv people sent boiling water, and the nv people were a little embarrassed to tell them that there was no tea at home, so they could only drink boiled water. Nakajima Yasuken didn't care, Tanabe hurriedly opened his box, took out a bag of tea from it, and gave it to the NV people.

"Wow, that's so good." The NV people couldn't help but scream in surprise when they smelled the tea leaves, and Muto Zhang only glanced at the NV people with attention at this time, the NV people were not tall, the black hair was coiled on the head, the white neck was out, the face was the goose egg face of the traditional Japanese NV people, and the old kimono on her body explained her current economic situation.

"This nv person is still tǐng pleasing to the eye, and this guy is still a little yàn blessed." Muto Akira's gaze was full of ambiguity for a moment, Tanabe didn't care about this, and he politely instructed the NV people, "I'm sorry for you." ”

"Soon." The NV man carefully washed the teapot with boiling water, then knelt down on the small coffee table, scooped out two spoonfuls of tea leaves from the tea bag with a bamboo teaspoon and put them into the teapot, and then slowly poured the boiling water into the teapot while gently stirring with the teaspoon; While stirring, he paid attention to the face of the tea, and felt that the face of the water was suitable, so he stopped stirring, poured the tea into the teacup, and respectfully offered it to the three of Nakajima in turn with both hands.

The three of Nakajima also took the teacup with both hands solemnly, and the skillful tea ceremony movements of the NV people made them put away their contempt. The tea ceremony is very popular in Japan, but it is not familiar to the lower classes, especially its complicated set of procedures, which is only familiar to well-educated upper-class nvists, even Muto Akira, the best-born of the three Nakajima.

"Thank you very much." Muto Zhang took a slight sip of saliva and bowed slightly.

The NV man smiled lightly: "You're welcome, it's this gentleman's tea." ”

"Are you familiar with the tea ceremony?" Tanabe asked tentatively.

"I used to learn it in school, but I haven't done it for a long time, and I'm unfamiliar." The NV people seemed to be a little ashamed, but there was regret in their eyes, as if they were thinking back to the good old days.

Muto Zhang's expression became more solemn, Japan is a society where men are respected and inferior, before the Meiji Restoration, only aristocratic nv people had the opportunity to be educated, after the Meiji Restoration, the government fǔ popularized education, and the commoners had the opportunity to study, but only a few nv children had the opportunity to go to college, and the cost of sub-university was expensive, and those who could afford to go to such a school were either rich or expensive. "Do you know where Ligao-kun has gone?" Nakajima interrupts Akira Muto's temptation, he is not very interested in these, and he is only polite to the NV people.

"He said he went looking for a house." The expression of the NV people was a little gloomy, and it was updated rapidly

"Looking for a house? He wants to move out? Tanabe was stunned for a moment, and the NV people nodded: "He said that the bombing of China, this is just the beginning, there will be more large-scale bombing in the future, it is very dangerous here, let us move, where can we move?" ”

The NV man sighed and looked at the courtyard around him: "This house was left to me by my father. ”

"That's your child?" Akira Muto looked at several children playing in the yard, and he noticed the love and pity in the eyes of the NV people looking at the children.

"The older boy is mine, and the two younger ones next to me are Mrs. Nakamura's, she went to work, and that one is her mother-in-law, Mrs. Nakamura, and the other three are neighbors." According to the NV people, Mrs. Nakamura, who was doing laundry, vaguely heard them mentioning their names, looked up this way, and continued to scrub the clothes in the basin when she saw that there was nothing wrong.

"I'm sorry, I haven't asked you what to call it?" Tanabe apologized for saluting the NV people.

"My husband's surname is Ishikawa, so you can call me Mrs. Ishikawa." NV people's answer was decent: "I have known Ligaojun for several years, when the clumsy husband and Ligaojun worked together in Manchuria, and the clumsy husband was killed on the battlefield of Soviet Russia two years ago, and I returned to China." ”

"Then why didn't you take the child back to your mother-in-law's house?" Tanabe asked a little puzzled.

"Mother-in-law?" Mrs. Ishikawa smiled bitterly: "The three brothers of the humble husband family were all conscripted into the army, the eldest uncle died in Myanmar three years ago, the younger uncle died in Hubei two years ago, and the father-in-law also passed away under sadness. ”

Listening to Mrs. Ishikawa's words, the three people who were drinking tea were silent for a moment, the Seven Years' War, or the Fourteen Years' War, the whole country of Japan did their best, and the adult Japanese alone died nearly four million in China, not counting the losses on the Nanyang Islands. Japan's total population is only 80 million, and its industrial capacity is only enough to meet 3 million troops, that is, almost all the soldiers of seven years ago were killed, and all the soldiers and officers were theoretically replaced.

The huge casualties have almost exhausted Japan's human resources, and many factories that used to be done by men are now doing the heavy work by NV people, and the situation in the countryside is even worse, and some villages do not have a single man in their prime. "Why don't you have a job?" Tanabe asked as he broke the silence.

"Yes, I'm on the night shift, six to twelve o'clock in the evening." Mrs. Ishikawa replied, "Now the factory works three shifts, two shifts at night and one shift during the day, and I do the evening shift. ”

Tanabe sighed softly, remembering that his wife was dragging three children in her hometown, and life was also very difficult. Just as he was thinking about it, a shout came from outside the mén: "Ishikawa's! Mrs. Nakamura! There's rice in the grain store, hurry up! Hurry up! It's too late and it's gone! ”

With the voice came in an old NV man in his fifties with white hair, the NV man was carrying a rice bag on his shoulder, and after coming in, he saw the three people of Nakajima sitting under the eaves, and he was a little embarrassed. Mrs. Ishikawa apologized to the three of them, and Mrs. Nakamura also put down her work and trotted into her house, and in a blink of an eye the two ran out with their pockets and food books.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry to disturb you for tea." The old NV man who came to call people apologized and explained: "The rice in the grain store comes and goes, and if you don't hurry up, it will be gone." ”

When he saw Mrs. Ishikawa and Mrs. Nakamura coming out, he hurried away with them. The three NV people left, only a few children were still playing games in the yard, the children were playing war games, three boys pretended to be the imperial army, and the rest pretended to be a captured Zhina soldier, and the two NV children were looking at the boys with envy, clapping their hands and shouting: "Zhina chalk pig!" Chalky pigs! Kill the chalky pigs! Kill the chalky pigs! ”

Mrs. Ishikawa left, but the three people who were sitting and drinking tea were silent, they felt very depressed, Japan is now in trouble in all aspects, Japan has been preaching that as a Japanese citizen to be tough, to endure what others can't bear, so the Japanese have been enduring and lack of materials.

With the loss of North China, the sea transportation was frequently attacked by US submarines, and the losses were extremely huge, and the grain brought back from China and the South China Sea became less and less, and the grain output at home dropped rapidly due to the large number of conscripts in the army, and it was no longer able to meet domestic needs. "Nakajima-kun, Tanabe-kun, Muto-kun, why are you together?"

Tachitakanosuke walked into the courtyard sweating profusely, and when he saw the three people sitting leisurely under the eaves, he first bowed down and then greeted the three happily. Tatsunosuke was wearing an old summer military uniform, with no collar badge or cockade on it, the shoulders and back of the military uniform were soaked with sweat, and he was carrying a washed and white-washed military bag on his shoulder, and the whole person looked very down.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, you sit down first, I'll clean up." After Tachitakanosuke finished speaking, he hurried into the house, hung up his satchel, and then carried the basin to the courtyard, and after receiving the basin of water, he scrubbed his body with a máo towel naked.

"It's really hot on this hellish day, it's only June and it's so hot, how can you spend this summer!" Tachitakanosuke said as he washed.

Nakajima patted the big tuǐ, stood up and said: "Ligaojun is still so free and easy, now I am relieved." As a samurai, you should be like this, not discouraged, not retreating, and if you are good, you should be a high king. ”

"Nakajima-kun, don't taunt me, I didn't let you see it when I was uncomfortable, otherwise you wouldn't have said that." As he spoke, he poured the water from the basin over his head, letting the cold water run down his body and eliminate the smell of sweat all over his body.

After flushing three basins of water in succession, Tachitakanosuke put the basin down. Only then did Tatetakanosuke feel more comfortable, he wiped his body with a máo towel, the large tuǐlù of máo velvet was on the outside, and the soaked inner kù was clinging to his body, making the male xìng characteristics very obvious.

"Ligaojun, it's not like you entertaining guests like this." Tanabe shook his head and said.

"That's how the miscellaneous courtyard is, I'm following the local customs, besides, you're not outsiders," Tatsutakanosuke said nonchalantly: "The landlord here is the wife of my former subordinates, we have known each other in Manchuria, Ishikawa is a good guy, but unfortunately he died on the battlefield of Soviet Russia." ”

Tatsunosuke went back to the house and changed into a loose kimono, and Muto Akira poured him a cup of tea, and then jokingly said, "Mrs. Ishikawa is just as beautiful, but it's a pity that she has become a widow." ”

Yasuken Nakajima glanced at him with disdain, Tanabe pretended not to hear, Tatsunosuke calmly picked up the teacup, he felt smoke in his throat, and after taking a long sip of water, he put the cup down contentedly.

"Now Japan is full of such widows, and if this war continues like this, Japan will seriously lack young adults after the war, and many NV people will not be able to find a husband." Tatsutakanosuke looked at Muto Akira and said.

Muto Akira was stunned for a moment, feeling the unhappiness in Tachitakanosuke's tone, and his expression was a little stunned, and Nakajima Yasuken said at this time: "Ritakaka-kun, do you know, the Anglo-American coalition has landed in France. ”

Tatetakanosuke frowned, his expression became serious, he thought for a while and said, "It's better for the Kwantung Army to withdraw immediately. ”

Muto Akira was stunned for a moment, the corners of Nakajima's mouth were contemptuous, and Tatsunosuke explained: "When Britain and the United States landed in France, the pressure on Soviet Russia must be reduced, and Soviet Russia will have the strength to increase troops to the east. ”

"So they are going to attack Manchuria soon," said Nakajima, who took the words of Takanosuke, "besides, almost four months have passed since the Battle of North China, and according to the habit of the generals of China, after each battle, there must be a rest of three to four months, and the calculation is enough; In addition, the summer grain in Manchuria is also about to mature, and the Chinese army can immediately obtain military rations when it enters Manchuria, and it can also alleviate the serious food crisis in North China. ”

"In addition, the rebellion in Xinjiang was about to be quelled, and China and the Soviet Union signed the Chongqing Declaration, which resolved the dispute between the two sides in Ménggu, at least temporarily, which relieved both sides' worries, and this change indicates that the offensive on Manchuria is about to begin." Tatsunosuke added.

The two sang and harmonized, leaving Muto Akira dumbfounded, and he looked at Yasuken Nakajima and Tatsunosuke blankly, not knowing what to say.
