Twenty-three - Kendo in the alley
On this day, after eating outside, the bored Ji Yuehua wandered outside again.
Originally, in the beginning, except for buying ingredients and daily necessities, or going out to eat, Ji Yuehua basically only stayed at home and would not spend any extra time outside.
After cleaning the house, they stared at the door of the house, maybe the two sisters might come back early one day.
Once upon a time, with such an idea, I gradually learned from the life rules of Yakumo Zi and Ruoxi Wan that the time to go to work is fixed, and even if it is a holiday, it is a good thing to tell the boss in advance, and the possibility of this sudden early return is as low as finding a needle in the sand.
Sisters, from the very beginning he was not forbidden to go out.
Giving up unrealistic fantasies, the affairs entrusted to him by his family became the only reason why Ji Yuehua had to stay in the house from morning to afternoon.
It's just that housework is limited after all
In the past, it took a lot of time to prepare a meal for three people and wash the dishes for three after eating. However, when a servings of three become servings of one, cooking and washing dishes are just a matter of an eye. Other than that, just cleaning the place is like washing a piece of clothing that is already clean, and it doesn't take much effort to do it. Not to mention, recently, for some reason, the two sisters also forbade him to wash their clothes, and the workload has been reduced a lot
By the end of the evening, he was left alone in his home, and there wasn't much to do.
It was also from that time that Ji Yuehua developed the habit of walking.
The reason why he takes a walk is simply that since his sisters are worried about living expenses and go to work for this reason, then as long as he also finds a job, his sisters don't have to worry about this problem anymore, right? Anyway, I have nothing to do at home, and I just go out to find something to do, just to pass the time, if only I could help my two sisters. Both of my sisters were walking outside and suddenly found a job by chance, so if you want to find a job yourself, let's go outside first, and so on.
Of course, what Ji Yuehua didn't realize was that the reason why Yakumo Zi and the others encountered the opportunity to perform was entirely because they desperately ran to a store where there were job opportunities. Although they both walk on the street, the former walks aimlessly, and often arrives at the place where the house is located, while the latter has a clear purpose and only seeks employment in the area where it is possible, and the two are not the same as the sun and the moon.
Because of this, Yakumo Zi and the two found jobs on the first day, while Ji Yuehua walked around for more than a month without encountering a work incident falling from the sky.
Although it is not that they have not asked the two sisters what to do, but the two obviously do not want their young baby brother to go out to work so soon and suffer hardships, every time they use some excuses to push the past The result, more than a month has passed, Ji Yuehua still doesn't know what to do to get a job.
The sisters didn't want to tell themselves that in short, they could only continue shopping.
With such an idea, this time, Ji Yuehua walked into a narrow back alley.
Why did you end up here? Speaking of which, even Ji Yuehua herself couldn't say why she was walking, she was already here when she noticed it, and the whole thing was so simple.
At the end of the alley, there is a big wooden door standing in the middle, the door is open, through the open door, it can be seen that a rectangular house is far larger than Ji Yuehua's cognition of the house is located in the center, from both sides of the door, all the way to the extension of the house on all sides are isolated by wooden fences, impressively in this concentration of houses, demarcating a small world belonging to the owner himself.
Attracted by this strange building, I have walked to the door before I know it.
"Excuse me, anyone?"
Sister Yun: Before entering someone's house, you must knock on the door, this is polite.
Ji Yuehua knocked twice on the wooden door that had already been opened, which was the first time since he had developed the habit of loitering that he knocked on the door of a place other than a restaurant.
He raised his voice several times to open the door in a row, but received no response.
The inside of the door, how peaceful it is. In a huge yard, there are trees, stones, rockeries, and small ponds, but there are no figures.
It's like a haunted house
I was subconsciously a little frightened by the silence that seemed to have no living creatures, but in the next moment, the child's curiosity about the room overcame this instinctive timidity.
Maybe I just didn't hear it
As if I wanted to comfort myself, I came up with such an excuse.
Walking in from the open wooden door, Ji Yuehua walked to the edge of the house, climbed up the wooden open corridor with her hands on the floor, and then walked lightly along the corridor to the front of a paper door.
The wooden corridor seems to have been some years, Rao is Ji Yuehua's weight is lighter than that of men of the same age, and there is a squeaky sound when she walks above.
Gently opened the paper door a little, about the length of a hand, Ji Yuehua probed in through the door
Then, he saw it.
A wooden plaque with the words "Broken Heart, Innocent" hangs directly above the wall.
It was a strong and powerful word, and it revealed a sense of sharpness.
Underneath the wooden plaque, on the wooden floor, a white-haired old man wearing a white blouse, a belt around his waist, and a dark black hakama below his waist was kneeling motionless with his back to Ji Yuehua.
The old man's hair is not as bright silver as Ji Yuehua, but the years have washed away the gray of the years. The hair at the back of the head was tied haphazardly with a hairband that looked a little old, and a long ponytail hung down from there.
Impeccable
For some reason, the first moment she saw the white-haired old man, such words flashed in Ji Yuehua's mind.
The well-groomed posture without a single blemish seems to be one with the place.
Obviously, he was just kneeling here casually, and it was not necessarily a convenient posture to stand up, and he didn't even cast his gaze, just turned his back to his side, however, even with so many factors, the old man sitting there gave him a kind of heavy pressure like a mountain.
As long as you take a step in, it is the back of the old man who is dead, as if it speaks like this.
This is a warning that is almost instinctively perceived.
What a great old man
Looking at the old man's back, Ji Yuehua unconsciously became distracted, one of them sat and the other watched, there was no communication between each other, and the house was silent after all.
The tranquility of forgetting time indulges in this, and before you know it, the sun has gradually set in the west, and when Ji Yuehua notices it, it is already dusk and sunset.
Worst!! I have to go back and prepare dinner for my sisters!!
Anxious and annoyed that he had actually left time behind, just as Ji Yuehua turned around and was about to leave, an old and boundless majestic voice happened to sound behind him at this time.
"The old man Nangong Longfei, since his retirement, has inherited this dojo for many years, except for an old friend, it has been a long time since he has seen others come to this kind of place where birds do not lay eggs. Since the children have been standing outside for so long, why don't they come in and talk about it?"
