Chapter Ninety-Nine: Buried Together
"Oh, those three cemeteries, I didn't buy them wrong. Nana Hoshino took out her phone and opened the map to show Naoto Yoshiwara, "It's right next to the residential area, it's close to here." I took a closer look as I passed by, and it was a nice place to live. ”
Naoto Yoshiwara glanced at the electronic map, which looked about a kilometer away - a residential area with a cemetery, which is common in Toei. Shinto believes that corpses are unclean and do not care about funerals, while Christianity was introduced to Toei relatively late, and the background is equivalent to nothing, and there is not much land, so the Toei cemetery is basically run by temples that occupy a large amount of land for historical reasons.
Don't underestimate it, it's very, very profitable, and it's hard for ordinary people to imagine.
Specifically, in Tokyo, the government and the temple reached an agreement that the total amount of land remained unchanged, and a cemetery was formed in the residential area and the residential area.
Dongying people are also accustomed to it, they are deeply influenced by Buddhism, "living to die" is rooted in the belief in the bottom of their hearts, even if a family member dies, they rarely cry loudly, often only calm mourning. At the same time, they also believe that people become Buddhas and gods after death, and the closer they are to the cemetery, the more the soul will be blessed by the gods and Buddhas - the cemetery is like a park, with elegant Buddha statues and people often strolling around.
They may even see death as a kind of romance, as in "Norwegian Wood": death is not the other pole of life, but exists as a part of life.
Naoto Yoshiwara is not surprised that the residential area is next to the cemetery, and it is strange why Nana Hoshino wants to buy three cemeteries? It is easy to understand that there is a process of human suffering-sadness, refusal to accept reality, gradually calm down, and slowly face it up-she probably gradually accepted the reality, and wanted to prepare a cemetery for Uesugi Xiang, but three ...... Isn't it necessary to build a super-large and luxurious tomb? Not to mention whether the temple allows it or not, in this situation, even if you build a pyramid for Uesugi incense, it doesn't make much sense, right?
So he carefully confirmed: "It's for you...... Did Mom prepare it?"
Nana Hoshino was stunned for a moment, her eyes turned into the distance, and she said blankly: "I have to prepare a place for my mother to rest, and there must be a place to see her." ”
"Are all three?" Naoto Yoshihara also sighed secretly, if Nana Hoshino wanted her mother to "live" better, he could understand, and he didn't mind running two legs to deal with the monks and "convince" them to agree to build a unique tomb.
Money can make ghosts push and grind, and it should be possible to let monks push it.
"How can that be?" Nana Hoshino glanced at Naoto Yoshiwara strangely, "The cemeteries are all specified, four feet per person, my mother didn't like it too eye-catching before, how could it be three pieces for one person, how could you have such a strange idea? There are two more pieces for you and mine, you are so stupid that people can't stand it." ”
"Who? me and yours?"
Nana Hoshino didn't quite understand Naoto Yoshihara's suspicion, and tilted her head to look at him: "Of course, I have made a reservation first so as not to be occupied by others, and then I will be buried next to my mother, and you will be buried next to me, is there anything wrong? ”
Yoshiwara Nao's face is about to crack, what is the situation? The other person is not yet middle-aged, and Nana Hoshino can't wait to bury him. He was surprised: "I didn't want to be buried in a foreign country, why didn't you buy it without asking?"
Nana Hoshino said in confusion: "Didn't we have an agreement? You have to protect me forever! As a reciprocal, then I also have the obligation to consider for you, I am responsible for your life, old age, sickness and death, I can't just let you pay unilaterally...... What the hell are you wondering about?"
She rolled her eyes a few times, and suddenly her fox eyes narrowed, revealing a dangerous light: "Are you going to break your oath?
Naoto Yoshihara hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Then how can it be, although I am not promising, I can still do what I say." He lowered his head and frowned as he spoke, when did he promise to protect this guy for the rest of his life, he didn't have any impression, but this guy can't lie, so sure there must be a ...... Could it be that he coaxed her in front of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, took care of her until Uesugi came back......? At the time, I didn't know that Uesugi Xiang was so unlucky that she would capsize!
Nanako Hoshino was suspicious for a moment, considering that Naoto Yoshihara has been working very hard lately, and he has always been honest and trustworthy, he felt that he was thinking too much, and the expression on his little face slowly loosened, "That's good, I'm willing to believe you." She was silent for a moment and whispered, "Also, thank you for not being able to ...... my mother I didn't come back and insisted on accompanying ...... After being with me and busy for me, I will remember it in ...... Keep it in mind. ”
Her voice was low and seemed to be difficult to phrase, and Naoto Yoshiwara was desperately recalling what he had said nearly two months ago, and he didn't hear the second half of the sentence for a while, and looked up and asked, "What did you say?"
Nana Hoshino's face flushed, her eyebrows pulled together, she glared at him in shame, raised her two feet and kicked him angrily, "I said...... I said you go down for me, it's polluting the air here!
Naoto Yoshihara looked stunned and was kicked out of the half-floor by Nana Hoshino. He rolled over and fell into the living room, scolding in his stomach: This is really a thing with a dog's face, talking well, and turning over when his face is turned over!
After scolding, he raised his head and looked at the half-layer and sighed, coaxing the child to put himself in, this is unprecedented, right? It's just that this kind of thing of breaking her promise and fattening herself is a bit undoable, forget it, she is still a child, and her mind will naturally change when she is older, anyway, she can't leave for a while, take a look, look again.
He was just about to turn around when he saw that Satsuki Yayoi was already holding the steel pipe and began to climb up - Satsuki Yayoi was already waiting impatiently below, and she made up the picture of Naoto Yoshihara reprimanding Nana Hoshino, and hurried up to comfort her.
Toei's machismo is prevalent, and Naoto Yoshihara, as the head of the family, beats Nana Hoshino, and no one else can say anything.
Naoto Yoshihara looked at Yayoi Satsuki crawling slightly awkwardly, and couldn't help but smile - the relationship between these two children is getting better and better, not bad.
He shook his head and turned around with a smile, finding that the living room had been cleaned up by Miki Momomiya. He smiled slightly apologetically at Miki Momomiya, went over and sat in the kotatsu, Miki Momonomiya peeled an orange for him and asked softly, "Is the sauce okay?"
"It's okay!" he took the orange petal as he spoke, Momomiya Miki is a super careful girl, even the white orange lattice on the orange petal was peeled off, and carefully put it in a small box, ready to use when cooking soup, "We reconciled, Hoshino has a bad temper, but he is still reasonable." ”
Momomiya Miki smiled softly, covered her mouth and said, "Yoshihara-kun will definitely be a good father in the future." She didn't yell rudely at Naoto Yoshihara, showing her manly spirit, and she had a good impression of her.
Naoto Yoshihara's face turned red, is it a father who fought with his daughter? A father who smashed his daughter into a unicorn? He felt quite embarrassed for a while, and quickly changed the subject-this panda girl's brain frequency is different from that of normal people, and they can't get stuck together.
"Miki, Hoshino said that he would prepare an office for you, and it is being renovated for a while, do you have any requirements? ”
"Huh?" Miki Momomiya's apricot eyes suddenly widened, and she forgot to pretend to be a lady. However, he reacted immediately, gently covered his mouth, and asked in confusion: "Why did Cai-chan prepare an office for me, am I not good at home?"
She regarded this rare cohabitation life as a bride's practice, smiled without showing her teeth, walked without exceeding her inches, presided over the kitchen, took care of the housework, and did her best to show her excellent side perfectly in front of Naoto Yoshiwara. Seriously, she is very satisfied with her current life, she has no plans to change, and she has no opinion on living like this for the rest of her life.
Naoto Yoshihara didn't know what Nana Hoshino thought, there was always some messy thoughts in her head, and he said casually: "Maybe she doesn't trust the new recruits in the company, so let you be the head of the stock investment department." You are also one of the shareholders, and it is only natural for you to work in the company. ”
After speaking, he joked again: "Miki will be a senior white-collar worker in the future." ”
Miki Momonomiya shook her head again and again: "No, no, I graduated from a short college, and I learned housekeeping, how can I be qualified to manage others? I won't do that, I just knock a few numbers according to the requirements of the vegetable sauce, I don't understand at all...... As for shares, that's not true. ”
Naoto Yoshihara ate oranges and said indifferently: "I think it's good, don't stay at home all day, go out for a walk." ”
Miki Momomiya looked embarrassed - it was okay to let her be a cook, but it would be a little difficult for her to do something else, but she couldn't say anything if she refused strongly. She thinks that she is an "employee" of Nana Hoshino, and it is reasonable to obey the boss's assignment, and if Naoto Yoshihara doesn't object for her, she probably won't be able to object.
She touched the silver bracelet on her wrist, a little distressed, and realized that her new job turned out to be a big challenge, not just a matter of typing a few numbers at home to cook rice - she looked around and thought about whether it was too late to learn.
Naoto Yoshihara has already turned on the TV to watch it, and the topic of the recent kidnapping case is still hot, and he has even changed a few channels to discuss it, and he can't find what he wants to watch, and he's a little unhappy.
The Dongying police are really a rare waste, and they can't even catch a few kidnappers for so long.
