Chapter Seventy-Seven: Obon

Speaking of the Obon Festival, this festival is probably the result of the export of **** culture, but after a short evolution, the Obon Festival in District 11 has undergone considerable changes compared to the **** Zhongyuan Festival, whether in terms of time or some other aspects, and the only thing that remains is probably only left around this day to worship ancestors and sweep the tomb.

However, for young people like Haha, the only meaning of Obon is the grand festival held that night and the large-scale fireworks display, which is said to be the only way to strengthen the relationship between lovers...... As for the specifics, Ye Yu said that he didn't know too much. However, since it is a festival, it is inevitable that there will be yukata fans, various food stalls, and other inherent items such as visiting the shrine, so it can be regarded as a culture that has been admired by people since ancient times.

And it just so happens that the time of the Obon Festival is around mid-August every year, and for the summer comic that has just ended, it is only two or three days after that, so it is no wonder that Ye Yu chose such a time point as a time for reconciliation between Kirino and Ayase.

But after all, it is completely unknown whether someone wants to take the opportunity to see the girls' yukata......

"Is it okay to dress like this in real white? If it's the first time you wear a yukata, won't you get used to it? After standing downstairs and waiting for 40 minutes, Ye Yu finally saw Zhenbai who walked down from the upstairs, and of course Boss Ming walked down with her behind her. To be honest, if it weren't for her, Ye Yu really didn't know how to fulfill Mashiro's wish to wear a yukata to attend the festival.

At this moment, the girl in front of her had already changed into a light blue bathrobe, and her hair was also pulled up high with a hairpin, which at first glance would inevitably give Ye Yu an unreal illusion. However, I have to say that a light-colored hair color like true white and a body that is not very angry are really suitable for yukata.

"It's okay...... Won't it be uncomfortable......" was asked by Ye Yu Zhenbai, she curled up her arms slightly and subconsciously looked left and right, as if she was looking for an inopportune place. And her actions like this provoked Ye Yu even more with a smile in his heart.

"Hey, I'm talking about you, it's rare for a girl to wear a yukata, is that all you want to say?" For Ye Yu's incomprehension, the boss couldn't help but question him dissatisfiedly.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry......" was said by Boss Ming, Ye Yu also apologized a little embarrassed to Zhenbai, "The yukata is indeed very suitable for you, Zhenbai, I think if you draw your current self into the comics, it will definitely sell well~~"

"Thank you~~" Although Zhenbai, who was praised, did not show how happy she looked, Ye Yu could still tell from the corners of her slightly upturned eyes that the girl was indeed very happy at the moment. And just as he was thinking this, Mashiro walked up to him from the opposite side. At the same time, he also stuffed his little hand into Ye Yu's palm.

"Ahh......h Forget it...... Ye Yu and Zhenbai's intimacy in the eyes of Boss Ming, I don't know what she thought, and after waving at Ye Yu and them, she planned to turn around and go back to the store.

"Then let's go too, the time is about the same~~" Ye Yu raised his hand and looked at his watch, and then said to Zhenbai, the girl naturally had no opinion on his decision, and after nodding and agreeing, she would not express any more opinions. Seeing her like this, Ye Yu simply took her little hand and began to take steps without hurrying, and at the same time did not forget to say a word as if talking to herself in this slightly deserted night sky,

"Boss Ming, if it's closed, why don't you come to the festival too. I think if it was your invitation, Brother Hong would definitely make time for it. After finishing speaking, Ye Yu didn't explain much, and left as if nothing had happened, but he believed that Boss Ming should have heard it.

―――――――――― Dividing Line――――――――――

On the corner of the street shrouded in night, the crisp sound of clogs stepping on the ground reverberates incessantly on this quiet street, making people feel relaxed and unavoidably sigh at the unique refreshment of summer nights...... Probably because it was too hot during the day, it was only at night that he could experience the comfort of this kind of temperature dropping, and it was understandable that the summer night became Ye Yu's favorite time period in July and August.

And speaking of yukata, this kind of thing Ye Yu has always thought that it is enough for girls to wear it. After all, compared to women's styles, men's yukata is only a few styles over and over, and they are all plain to death, plus Ye Yu, who has worn a kimono for many years, will inevitably get tired of the same kind of clothing. Therefore, he was wearing nothing more than ordinary casual clothes tonight.

The combination of the two is naturally easy to attract the attention of passers-by in normal times, but it seems nothing special today, and most of the pedestrians along the way are like this, and from the direction of the process, it should be the team that goes to the festival.

"Ah, here, here, Ye Jun~~" The festival is naturally the more people who participate, the better, and on the way to the festival, Ye Yu naturally deliberately took a long detour to meet with Xuecai, who was better in advance. In order to thank Yukina for taking care of Mashiro for the time being a few days ago. When he also mentioned to Ayase about going to the festival, he also thought of inviting Yukina.

By the way, in order to explain his farewell two days ago, after calming Ayase a little, Ye Yu also called the girls one by one to explain all the causes and consequences of the incident. As for why he didn't know what happened between Ayase and Kirino before the prophet, Ye Yu thought about it and finally just made an excuse to mention it. Anyway, the excuse he used was very lame, and it was perfunctory when people heard it...... But this also shows from another angle that he doesn't want the girls to delve into it, and after figuring this out, no one will go to the bottom of it.

"Yukina, did you arrive so early?" Ye Yu felt that it was not too late for him to go out with Zhenbai. But who knew that they were still a little later than Yukina, as the party who sent the invitation and the self-esteem of being a man, it inevitably made him feel a little embarrassed, "And the yukata is beautiful......

"Since Ye Jundu said so, it seems that it is really worth taking the time to change the yukata~~" Xuecai, who was praised by Ye Yu, raised her arm and then turned around in place like this, the wide sleeves of the yukata were completely stretched out, and the delicate patterns embroidered on it were all displayed in front of Ye Yu's eyes.

"But I rarely saw you wearing a yukata before, did you buy a new one?" Yukina's performance made Ye Yu's eyes light up, and then asked casually......

"This is what my mother used to wear, and I thought it would be good to wear normal clothes, but my mother insisted that I wear one...... But now it seems that it has indeed been said~~" Yukina explained to Ye Yu with a smile, and although she doesn't always wear a yukata, looking at her current comfortable appearance, I don't know that I think she has always liked this traditional costume.

"What's the point?" Ye Yu continued to ask with interest......

"That is...... Boys like yukata and the like~~" The fan in the girl's hand was also gently shaking as she spoke, and when she said this, she naturally stood beside the two, but this time because Mahaku occupied Ye Yu's left hand in advance, Yukina stood on the side of Mahaku a little unusually, "Also, Mahaku is also suitable for wearing yukata." Ye Jun helped pick it? ”

"Actually, this one was sent by Alice, hey, if I could, I would like her to come to the festival for a visit......" When it comes to this Ye Yu, she always hangs on her lips, but Xue Cai, who has never seen the landlady Ye Yu once, will inevitably show a helpless look, and some girls who are used to this state did not ask much, but took Zhenbai's other hand and said to Ye Yu,

"I think if Ye Jun is a little stronger, that Miss Alice will more or less listen to Ye Jun's advice~~ But now...... The festival is about to begin~~" (To be continued.) )
