Chapter 130: A Traditional Japanese Inn
Mt. Fuji is an active volcano located in the middle of Toei Honshu Island. Beneath the ass is the Kanto Plain, close to the Pacific Ocean, and there are no other mountains nearby, and it looks particularly spectacular above the Ichima Flat River.
Naoto Yoshiwara got off the tour bus with three girls, one big, two young, and looked at the high Mt. Fuji and the snow caps that sparkled like diamonds in the morning sun.
After a long time, Miki Momonomiya praised Rourou: "The only Kaolin is indeed worthy of its name. Mt. Fuji is one of the three major scenic spots that symbolize the nature, history, and modernity of Toei, and she has been to Kyoto and Ginza, but when she was about to travel, she first thought of Mt. Fuji, which represents the natural wonders of Toei.
Now she hasn't gone up the mountain yet, just standing at the foot of the mountain and looking at it makes her feel like it's worth the trip.
Naoto Yoshihara stood beside her with several bags on his back, and said with a smile: "It's quite tall!"
Nana Hoshino was also a little dizzy, guessing that this was the Fuji view known as the 'Diamond Top', and thought it was really good-looking, but she listened to Naoto Yoshihara's words in her ears, and muttered in a disdainful voice: "The altitude is only 3,700 meters, but it looks high here......"
Yayoi Satsuki picked up the camera and took a long shot first-Nana Hoshino squinted at the 80 prime lens on the camera again, and endured it without saying anything.
She is more tolerant of Yayoi Satsuki and Miki Momomiya, and is not the same as Naoto Yoshihara.
After the three girls stood there stupidly for a while, Naoto Yoshiwara planned to take them to the bus up the mountain. Mt. Fuji is divided into 10 stations from the base to the summit. From the foot of the mountain to the mountainside is the 5th station, and then from the mountainside up is the 6th station, the 7th station...... There is a place to rest at each station.
The 5th station can be reached by car from the base of the mountain, where there is a very large platform with many restaurants, shops and inns, and further up there is only a foot. The Toei government had thought about building a cable car for the sake of tourism, but Asami Shrine did not agree, the reason was that it was disrespectful to the gods, and the government begged several times but couldn't do it, and then the matter was gone - Mt. Fuji is not state-owned land, but belongs to the private ownership of Asami Shrine, and it would be good if the shrine was open to the public, and then let the people sit and enter the shrine, which is impossible.
Naoto Yoshihara was just about to leave, but saw that Nana Hoshino had already begun to greet Miki Momonomiya and Yayoi Satsuki, and said, "Sister Miki, Yayoi, let's go and settle down first, it's almost noon!"
With that, she grabbed her own large backpack and walked down the street.
Naoto Yoshihara looked at the mountain, a little strange, don't you go to live in the 5th station, but Nana Hoshino has always been a person with ideas, and he didn't object, so he took Satsuki Yayoi's bag and followed behind.
Nana Hoshino took her mobile phone all the way to find her way, and when she arrived at a place, she breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "It's here." ”
The three of them looked up, but it was a traditional Japanese inn with the word "soup" on it. Miki Momomiya knew a little bit about it, and said hesitantly, "Cai-chan, do you want to live here?" I heard that this kind of shop is so expensive......
Nana Hoshino didn't care, took Miki Momonomiya's hand and said, "Sister Miki, the first time we go out to play together, we must leave good memories, compared to this, money is not important at all! Besides, it's not time for us to save money, right?"
In the end, she was asking Naoto Yoshiwara, and Naoto Yoshiwara was very supportive, "That's the truth! There are three major shareholders and one president of SPM, where can't you live, go in quickly, it's so cold outside!"
As he spoke, Naoto Yoshihara pushed the three of them forward.
Traditional ryokans emerged in the Edo period, and were generally family-style, and in the past, they did not even accept new guests, but only served old guests, who needed to stay and were introduced by at least two old guests.
And the decoration is also simple and elegant, seeking the beauty of simplicity, and the service is to ask for warmth, I can't warm the quilt for you, and I try my best to make the guests feel as comfortable and relaxed as at home.
However, in the 21st century, with the rise of the hotel industry, this traditional hotel was immediately hit hard, and it was very difficult to operate, and gradually it began to open its doors to the outside world - no way, always have to eat.
Nana Hoshino checked the recommended ratings on the Internet and chose this large ryokan with excellent environment, hot springs, exquisite food, and impeccable service. Similarly, this price generally costs the middle-class to stop beating for three seconds.
As soon as a group of four people entered the door, there were suddenly five or six women in kimono with their heads wrapped, with a smile on their faces, bowing and welcoming them, and the white footwear stepped on small steps, bending down to ask everyone to take off their shoes, and someone immediately took it aside to remove the dust and maintain, and someone led them in, and the luggage was picked up early.
Nana Hoshino showed her mobile phone reservation voucher, and the four of them were escorted to a large room by a group of warm and friendly maids. Clean tatami mats, boxy kotatsu, soft cushions, snow-white lattice sticker sliding doors, tea sets on the Hakugo shelves, and ukiyo-e imitations of "Black Fuji" are hung on the walls.
It's simple, it's elegant, and it's more homely.
The maids put the luggage of the four of them in the closet, some took out the cotton bathrobes from the closet, some brought clogs to put at the door of the room, and some took thick cotton socks and sat down on their knees to change their socks.
Miki Momonomiya has basically been blinded, it is common for her to grow so big and serve others, and it is the first time to be served by others. She didn't know whether to push it off, and she was afraid that she would be punished if she didn't accept the service, but she blushed in embarrassment, and also reached out to help—as soon as someone knelt down and held her double-toed socks for her to choose, she was already scrambling to pull her own socks. They had just lifted one of her feet to put on her socks, and she had already put one on herself.
Satsuki Yayoi didn't feel anything, she had always been quite honest, and she was just cheerful in front of Miki and Nana, and now she was at the mercy of others like a big doll, just kept whispering thank you.
Nana Hoshino is small-faced, rejected the maids around her, and picked a pair to change by herself, but on the side of her face, she saw Naoto Yoshihara looking at the maids around her who were only wearing thin yukata - her perspective was hard to see the color squinting - she was picking up socks and preparing to let someone change them for him, and she was suddenly very unhappy.
I can't say why it's unhappy, but I always feel that a group of women surrounding Naoto Yoshihara makes her feel extremely uncomfortable. She immediately narrowed her fox eyes, pointed at Naoto Yoshihara and said angrily: "You are such a big person, can't you wear it yourself?"
Naoto Yoshiwara was stunned, this ...... Isn't that one of the services offered by the hostel? you have to wear clogs here, and it's winter, so you have to provide special thick cotton socks, and these services are paid for, what's wrong?
This thing has encountered a lot of things recently, and it's understandable that she is not happy, but why do you always have to be angry with yourself? Is it because I am too good to her?
Being found fault all the time, Naoto Yoshihara was also a little unhappy, and stretched out his feet and smiled: "I won't wear it, why don't you come and help me put it on?"
Nana Hoshino was even more annoyed, grabbed her socks and put them on Naoto Yoshihara's feet: "Okay, I'll wear it for you!"
The socks she was holding were intended for her own wear, small sizes, which were Naoto Yoshihara's feet...... Naoto Yoshihara's big-footed girl has been wronged! Ma Dan, it hurts, is this to split me? You can't treat me like this!
Naoto Yoshihara also took it, and I don't know which nerve Nana Hoshino is pumping again. After all, this is not at home, he was embarrassed to guard a room of people to fight with a child, snatched the socks and threw them back to Hoshino Nana, and said stupidly: "Count you ruthless!"
After all, he put on his own socks.
Nana Hoshino looked at him, unconvinced, put on the socks and felt soft and warm and comfortable, stretched out her little feet to look at it carefully, and moved her thumb again, then nodded with satisfaction.
At this time, the hostess of the inn, the maîtress who manages the maids and handymen, usually the hostess herself, came to thank the guests and presented them with a pair of hanging doors with the hotel's signboard and Mt. Fuji as a souvenir of their stay.
This is a tradition, Yoshihara Naoto is still waiting for Hoshino Nana to come forward, seeing that she didn't move, then I remembered that I was the "head of the family", although it is a puppet nature, but it is in line with etiquette to speak to the outside world, and quickly got up to return the salute, took the souvenir and thanked the female general for her hospitality. Then the maid and the maids exited the door, allowing the guests to rest for a while.
Satsuki Yayoi and the others were gone, so he regained his cheerfulness, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Wow, it's amazing, so many people help me change my socks, it's the first time I've encountered it." ”
Naoto Yoshihara looked at Yayoi Satsuki a little speechlessly - there are four people in this room, and her money is not spent in vain.
Satsuki Yayoi walked around the room again and asked, "Nana-ko, do we all sleep here at night?"
Nana Hoshino was looking at the hanging door and said casually, "Yes, it's the same as at home." After speaking, she put the hanging door on the table, took out her mobile phone and looked at it and said, "Let's rest for fifteen minutes, tidy up our things, and then set off." ”
Naoto Yoshiwara asked, "What are you going to do?" "Aren't you planning to set off to climb the mountain at this point?" He said as he looked through the hotel brochure on the table, followed the table of contents and found the wine room and smoking room, and immediately refreshed himself, and immediately said: "I won't be able to play for long today, so why don't you stay here and have a good rest! There is a hot spring, so it's good for you to go and take a dip...... You can have skin care and beauty. ”
These traditional inns have good wines, and he plans to take a look.
Hoshino Nana just saw that his saliva was about to flow out, and she knew that he was not at ease, and said angrily: "This is a group outing, we have to act according to the plan!
She looked down at the itinerary on her phone and said, "Thirteen minutes later, we will set off to taste the local food, and by the way, we can buy some souvenirs! Come back at five o'clock in the afternoon, dine here, then soak in the hot springs to wash off the fatigue, go to bed early, and leave for the mountains at five o'clock tomorrow morning." ”
Naoto Yoshihara listened for a while, then stretched out his hand and said, "Show me the itinerary." ”
Nana Hoshino didn't doubt him, handed it over, and said, "Don't worry, I've planned it carefully, there won't be any problems, as long as I do what I say, we will definitely ...... this time"
Before she finished speaking, she saw that Naoto Yoshihara had already deleted the schedule, and said with a smile: "To come out to play is to be free, what timetable you make, what you want to do, everyone votes, you don't want to have the final say!"
Nana Hoshino was stunned, this guy actually ruined her hard work for one night, this is a blatant rebellion! Now that he admits his identity as a guardian, does he want to ride on his head?
