Chapter Eighty-Six: Miss's New Clothes V
The moon is as bright as water, pouring down from the nine heavens and sprinkling all over the garden. The exquisite courtyard is as dreamy as a fairyland against the backdrop of the moonlight.
In the courtyard, among the many rooms, there seems to be one room that is particularly favored by the moonlight. If one could look down from the sky, they would see that the room seemed to be surrounded by moonlight, shining brightly in the night. If it weren't for the fact that the entire Oda house was lit up and down, this room would have been particularly conspicuous.
In this room, filled with moonlight, Dylan was sitting cross-legged, carefully absorbing the essence of moonlight. Traces and wisps of moonlight were slowly absorbed by the bat's wings. Then bit by bit, the blood energy of the city was refined. With such a slow cultivation speed, it is not much different from the ordinary baron-level blood clan. If Dylan continued to cultivate at this rate, it would probably take a year to recover to his heyday.
Slowly retracted the bat wings and exhaled deeply. Dylan couldn't help but sigh: "Being in the enemy camp, you have to be careful even to recover your blood energy. For a whole day, I absorbed only enough energy to meet my basic needs. If my blood can not be restored, my safety will not be guaranteed. If Keiji Oda or the samurai who saw me that night were discovered, would I have to run again?"
Dylan walked to the entrance, one hand pressed the door and knocked on the door, he thought to himself: "If you want to find out about the family martial arts of the Oda family, I'm afraid it won't be something you can do in a day or two." Do I have to wait until I have regained my strength to come to the Oda family. ”
Dylan hesitated. "I'm afraid that such an opportunity doesn't happen often, the Oda family is a couple, and there has always been less contact with the outside world, if you give up this time, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to get in next time. ”
Dylan was struggling when he suddenly heard two crisp footsteps outside the yard. The footsteps came from far and near, and soon they were in front of the courtyard where Dylan was. At such a close distance, Dylan could already hear the other party's speech.
I only heard the two women talking as they walked, and it was Dylan who was talking about it.
"Hey!" Do you know who the guests in this courtyard are?"
Tamaya replied in a crisp voice, "Of course I do. You don't know, "Ren" is said to be a ready-to-wear master from Osaka who lives in the garden, and Oda-sama specially invited him to Shima just to make a set of twelve orders for Chizuru-sama. ”
Lian said in a surprised tone: "Ahhh You must be able to make a lot of money every year. ”
Tamaya replied, "That's right." Such a master can eat two meals a day, one in the morning and one in the evening, which is so happy. ”
"yes! yes! And it's haute cuisine. It's nice to be able to make clothes·······"
The two of them talked all the way to Dylan's house. When they came outside, they suppressed their voices, took off their clogs under the porch, knelt down at the door and knocked on it.
Knock knock!
The maid named Tamaya whispered, "Your sir! With that, he opened the shoji door and walked in.
Entering the room were two thirteen or fourteen-year-old girls, who bowed respectfully to Dylan when they entered the room, then placed their lunch boxes on the tatami mats and took out the food in the same way.
The Oda family is worthy of being a strong party in the Sanwa Plain, and the meals sent show the temperament of local tyrants.
I saw that the food that the maid took out from the food box included a grilled fish, a rice or two, a plate of radish, a bowl of miso soup, and three fried shrimps····· There are actually three pears. Yes, this is really haute cuisine.
At this point, Dylan couldn't help but start thinking about England. Although British meals are simple, there is always a lot of fruit and meat. How do you think now······ Ay!
Looking at the plate full of exquisite food, Dylan sighed secretly in his heart, then waved his hand and said, "If you are not hungry tonight, you can eat these." With that, he closed his eyes and began to recuperate.
Hearing Dylan say that he was not hungry and that he had given him food, the two maids had expressions of surprise on their faces. After bowing to Dylan, they quickly packed the food into the food box and walked out of the courtyard to the beat of the brisk drum.
Along the way, he said:
"Oh! Tonight is our lucky day. They are much luckier than Lantian, who is in charge of serving Miss Chizuru. ”
"In other words, Miss Chizuru is not eating today, but the rest of the food is only eaten by the old women and adults, and we Imperial Masters can't even lick the plate. ”
"Tamaya, why don't you say Miss Chizuru and the master dressmaker don't eat? Is there anyone who doesn't like such a happy thing as eating?"
"I don't know. Maybe they eat twice a day and feel guilty."
"Not really. Tamaya, don't talk nonsense. It is said that the lady sat in the lotus pond for a day. Maybe she's sitting in zazen. Isn't the head of the family, Keiji-sama, also a lot of zazen? Maybe the master garment maker is also zazen. ”
"Yes, yes, yes, they're probably all sitting in zazen. ····· What is zazen? ”
"I don't know, it's a good thing anyway. Keiji-sama often sat in meditation, and when he didn't see anyone, he didn't eat. It must be a great thing. ”
"But I think it's good to eat. ·······."
Dylan closed his eyes and listened to the two maids from afar. He said to himself, "Zazen! Oda Keiji zazen, it should be for practice, and what Chizuru is doing. If you don't eat, it's because you're getting married, so you're depressed before marriage?"
Dylan covered his chin with one hand: "Perhaps, I can use Chizuru as a breakthrough ·······." ”
··········
In the Oda house and backyard, Chizuru sat alone under the verandah, watching a white lotus flower in the garden swaying in the wind, and was silent for a while. Looking from afar, from her back, it seems that you can feel a deep sense of melancholy.
Dylan stood at the corner of more than thirty meters away from Qianhe, looked at her back coldly, and thought to himself: "I came here in the morning until the sun went down, and she was still sitting in the yard. Ten hours in a row, the saddest time has passed. At this point, she must have been very tired, both physically and mentally. So now, I need to uncover the scars in her heart again in order to take advantage of the void and make a deep impression on her heart. ”
Dylan glanced around the yard. "There was nothing in the yard that could be used as a musical instrument, except for a few decorative bamboos. I can't cut down the bamboo in the yard and make a flute on the spot. ”
After lowering his head and thinking quietly for a moment, a flash of inspiration flashed in Dylan's mind············
