Chapter 25 After moving to a new home, the first meal must be cooked at home
He bought two medium-sized bags of flour and came back with a bag on his arm, with a shopping bag with the supermarket logo on his wrist.
He still bought bottled spices.
Because condiments such as soy sauce and vinegar are very troublesome if they are not bottled, and now you can not see them in bulk as before.
He didn't buy the bagged one, because if he did, he would have to buy a bottle separately, which was more cost-effective in comparison.
He looks like a slender and not very beautiful young man, but his strength is really not small.
"Thank you so much for today......!" I first thanked the uncle of the vegetable store, and then put the things I bought back into the cart little by little, during which the uncle also came to help, and I said that I could come, but it was useless.
There was everything in the supermarket, and when he saw that he was holding two bags of flour to check out, the clerk immediately had a clear expression on his face and asked him if he was introduced by the vegetable store next door.
Hiraku replied a little embarrassed yes.
The clerk chatted with him while scanning the code for him to check out, saying that the uncle of the vegetable shop is always very enthusiastic, and the amount of large bags of flour and medium bags of flour is only a little different, so ordinary people will choose to buy a big bag directly, and only the owner of the vegetable store will try his best to help his customers save money-
Two medium bags are more expensive than one big bag, and the amount is only a little more, but according to the kilogram weight, it is indeed more cost-effective to have two parts of the middle bag, but most people will not be so calculating.
And because he learned that the owner of the restaurant introduced him and that he had only recently moved here, the supermarket clerk gave him a slight discount, and said with a smile that this time it was a special offer, don't tell anyone - whatever, let the restaurant feel like he has really received a lot of help from everyone......
I don't want to go.
But he also knows that he ...... In fact, there is nothing to repay everyone's kindness.
"I'm going to come back more often in the future!" The uncle of the vegetable shop smiled happily and helped them put everything away, and then sent them out.
"Yes, I will, thanks again ......! Goodbye, uncleβ" Hiraku replied shyly as she carried Yu into the cart.
The uncle watched them walk half the way down the street and took off the curtain at the entrance of the store.
- "I'm going to close the store today." β
As if talking to himself.
-
Yuzheng, who sat back on the cart, rummaged through the bags he had brought out of the supermarket to see what was inside.
Large bottles of dark soy sauce, small bottles of light soy sauce, small bottles of light sushi vinegar, large bottles of ordinary flavored vinegar, and what looks medium in comparison and seems to be oyster sauce, plastic barrels of cooking wine with handles, two different bottles of oil, vacuum-packed sachets of raw rice, mayonnaise and ketchup salad dressings, and many other things that are common in the home.
ββ¦β¦ Brother, what did you do before? β
Yu was surprised that she could hold so many things and look relaxed......
It's said to be easy, but in fact, it's the same as not holding it, it's very normal, and it doesn't seem to be bothered by the weight of these things at all.
"Hmm...... I guess it's the kind of thing that helps deliver goods, and this cart was also delivered from the place where I used to work. β
Hiraku slowly pushed the cart down the street of Konoha.
It was getting late, and in winter it had already darkened around 5 p.m., and the sky was already visible with stars and a half-round moon.
"Sounds hard, but is it really okay? ...... your age."
Yu carefully checked his face.
He looks like he's only a teenager.
"I'm fine, and it's just a delivery, it's not very difficult, and it's more than a ninja...... I don't think I'm particularly hard. β
He patted Yu's shoulder with one hand, still pushing his cart with ease.
"According to your teachers, after graduating as ninjas, students over the years have become busy as soon as they graduate, and there have been cases of people who have had to fight before they were ten years old...... Maybe I'm a little scared, so I don't want to be a ninja, even though we're family now, but ...... Anyway, I'm not trying to stop you, after all, your wish is to become a ninja, but that's really not very safe...... But I can't help it, and if I've always been an ordinary person, as long as nothing special happens, at least I can always be ...... As your brother, do whatever you want, and I will always support you. β
Hirashi looked into Yu's eyes and showed her his attitude.
ββ¦β¦ Well, thanks. β
Yu lowered his head.
[After dinner, steam some potatoes and make a salad......]
-
Yu watched as Yu locked the door after pushing the cart into the courtyard, and then he was carried to the door of the house, he opened the door lock and signaled Yu to go in first, and then he carried the things on the cart to the house little by little.
"Don't you go into the house? It's a little cold outside at night, and you'll catch a cold if you stay for a long time. β
After moving the flour, he was putting the rest of his things together and carrying them into the house.
Some things are fragile.
He's going to take those in one last time.
"Okay, I'd like to see how you move things."
Yu crumbled the lollipop given by the teacher into small pieces while squatting in the doorway and observing.
I have to say that the action is quite professional, and it looks like a professional move......
Although the reason why she didn't go in was actually that the lights weren't turned on in the house, there had been incidents of black shadows popping out before, so Yu didn't dare to enter the house by himself.
"Well, I don't have a lot of stuff anyway......" Tsuki took out a bag of things that would be fine even if they fell to the floor, carried them into the hallway of the house, and then walked over to the cart to continue sorting out the rest of the things.
"Why don't you push the cart to the door?" Yu carried the plastic stick that had lost the candy ball, gnawed on the candy and raised his hand suspiciously.
She lowered the cart to a small cistern in the courtyard, some distance from the doorway where Yu was squatting.
She couldn't understand why she had put the cart so far away and walked so far back and forth to carry things, instead of putting it directly at the door to shorten the distance to be walked......
ββ¦β¦ Ahem, because I've been lying down for too long, so I thought I'd walk more to move my body......" I coughed, picked up a bunch of glass bottle bags with one hand, and held the other hand under the bag to relieve the pressure on the bag......
"That's right."
Yu bit the candy cube in his mouth a little more, and held his cheeks to see as he continued to carry things.
[I guess I didn't expect that.] ]
-
After putting the last thing away, he locked the cart in the place where the white-eyed old brother was tethered to the cart before, and when he returned to the door, he wanted to take Yu into the house together, but it seemed that he thought of something, and the outstretched hand took it back.
Yu saw a shoe rack in the hallway with an equally strange aesthetic, and next to it were a pair of larger slippers and a pair of small slippers that she could wear.
"Let's go in, can we sit in the living room first? It took a bit of a long time to make noodles, and the gentleman bought some snacks on the coffee table, and you can eat some of them first, but if you eat too much, you won't be able to eat at night, so that's not good. β
As he spoke, he changed his shoes, picked up the bag containing vegetables, walked to the living room and turned on the light, and then went to the kitchen.
When Yu changed his shoes and ran to the cleaned wooden floor, Hiraku came out again and carried the noodles and the like to the kitchen.
The furniture is quite old, but it is still usable, and the interior of the house has become much cleaner after cleaning.
When Yu entered the current living room, he suddenly felt that he was 'home'.
I've just moved in, but I feel like I've been living here for a long time.
β¦β¦ Warm?
It doesn't seem to be.
β¦β¦ It felt like home.
Probably.
The sofa is old, but the cushions and cushions on the sofa are relatively new, so they should have been replaced.
Yu saw something on the small cabinet next to the sofa that looked like a family photo.
- A couple who appeared to be husband and wife, with gray hair, and a round stool in front of them, and a ...... on the stool A black ...... Cat?
The ears are round, like those of a curly-eared cat, with long hair, but also black......
However, when she thought that this was a world where people and water were one, she thought that there might also be a solid-colored black cat with curly ears like this......
Its coat color is really dark.
It was so dark that only its outer outline and its golden eyes could be seen.
[Is this the psychic beast that the eldest sister said before that was rescued...... It's a cat, right? ]
Yu thought back to the dark shadow he had seen outside the bathroom.
The movement is fast, and when you move, you can't see what it is at all, which is very consistent with the characteristics of cats.
[If it's a cat, don't be afraid......]
When Yugang thought so, a layer of goosebumps suddenly appeared on his arm.
She shrunk her shoulders and felt a chilling gaze coming from the window with her back to her......
Yu leaned over to the couch cushion and turned his head warily.
It wasn't an illusion, but when she turned her head, she saw only a light passing through the window, and then there was nothing.
ββ¦β¦β
[Well, even a cat actually does it in this case...... It's scary. ]
Yu decides to go to the kitchen and stay with Hiraku.
-
"It's boring to be alone, is there anything I can do to help? Why don't I say I want to help out so I can finish dinner earlier? β
Yu gave himself a reasonable excuse to go into the kitchen.
"Ah, is it?" Her sleeves were rolled up to her elbows, and her exposed little arms were now stained with a lot of flour, "...... Well, but it doesn't seem to be a ...... Well, let's see for yourself and find something to do, right? But don't mess with the knives, it's still too early for you to chop vegetables or something. β
After turning around to his upper body and head, and after confirming that the knives that were dangerous for children were on the counter of the cupboard that Yu couldn't reach, he smiled at her again and turned back to continue kneading his dough.
"Hmm."
Yu agreed as he opened the cupboard and rummaged through it, looking for a place where the tools in his impression might be there.
Five minutes later, she managed to find a roller knife, then picked up a large potato, crouched down next to the trash can and began peeling it.
-
She found out that Yu had the knife when she had cut half of the carrot after she had finished peeling two potatoes.
