Although it is currently in Hokkaido, it is necessary to have a New Year's atmosphere.

The hot spring inn where I stayed was decorated with a bamboo rake, a festive item to congratulate the prosperity of business and wealth.

This thing is a bamboo rake with three gods who attract fortune and a large pile of gold paper coins. Write a few more words of "prosperity in the family".

In addition, a small ornament called "mirror cake" is placed on the shrine where it is enshrined.

This is a round pastry made from mochi, usually two mochi stacked on top of each other.

The inn is generous and has these items for every guest who stays at their hotel for the New Year.

There are also some delicate Japanese sweets made by the hostess herself.

When he received these things, he even doubted for a while that he had gone to purchase a lonely thing with July this morning?

But my mother said that it was okay, saying that it happened that six gods of wealth would come to the house this year, which was a good intention.

Why six?

Ruri and July are also officially adults in October of the new year, and Sakakihara Raku suspects that his mother is hinting at himself.

But let's be honest, even in Japan, these New Year's items are basically those used by the older generation.

Almost no one in the Heisei generation would worship shrines at home. Not to mention arranging bamboo rakes and mirror cakes, which cost money and energy.

According to Suzu Sakakihara's words, what to do mirror cakes! Feed it directly to my mouth and give it to me!

Stupid sister, only people who become fat pigs in the future will talk like this.

Sakakihara followed her mother's instructions and hung her freshly made door loose outside the guest rooms of everyone in the family at the specified time. After doing these things, when I went back to the room and pushed the door open, I happened to run into Tianhai Jiu Liuli, who came back from the kitchen to get the ingredients.

Ruri is always busy, even when it comes to the New Year.

Since yesterday, she has been accompanying her mother to complete the decoration for New Year's Day.

Today's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner on New Year's Eve was also cooked by her and her mother. They asked the innkeeper to borrow the kitchen.

Sakakihara saw her hair tied up and wearing a traditional yukata, and at the same time, he thought she was cute and good-looking, but he was a little worried about whether it would be bad for her to be so busy.

"Wouldn't it be nice for me to help out in the kitchen?"

"This can't be done," Tianhai Jiu Liuli refused without thinking about it, "It's all said, Lejun has been cooking for everyone for a year, no matter what you say this time, I can't keep you busy." ”

"Oops," In the guest room, Suzu Sakakihara was lying on the floor, lazily watching the New Year's program on TV, she waved her hand outward, "Brother, you can take a break, just let Sister Ruri and Mom be busy, they want you to take a break." ”

Sakakihara glared at the old girl who had been lazy in the room with half-hanging eyes, "Why didn't you come to help?" ”

"I want to too, but everyone doesn't let me work, why do I have to do it, and my mother dislikes me for being clumsy, so I can only rest."

Suzu Sakakihara's voice became more and more lazy the more she spoke, lying on her side with her face crossed and her legs crossed, and her slightly closed eyes also revealed a kind of lazy transparency.

"There's really no way, life, sometimes it's so happy~"

For a person like Ah Ling, who was born happy and enjoys his success, Sakakihara Le can only complain that this girl is really a good baby.

"Liuli, are you usually too used to Ah Ling?"

"No, isn't it that Lejun always likes to get used to bells?"

"I've not been used to her lately, and if I dare to take the countdown next exam, I'll open her ass."

"Hey, hey! Dude, don't speak ill of me! Be careful that I tell you about you and Sister July the day before yesterday! ”

"Ah Ling!" Sakakihara immediately turned back.

"The day before yesterday. Lejun and July? What's the matter? Tianhai Jiu Liuli's gentle face immediately showed doubts.

Glaring at the old girl, after reaping one of her grimaces, Sakakihara quickly turned around and explained to Ruri with a smile, "The day before yesterday, it was just that you were looking for me to be coquettish on July night." ”

"At night? Coquetry? ”

Hearing this, Tianhai Jiuliuli was even more puzzled.

"Didn't we stay in the mountains the day before yesterday and spent most of the night in that natural hot spring. If I was looking for Lejun to be coquettish in July, why didn't I see it. ”

"That's why I said that my brother is bad~" Sakakihara Suzu's words floated into Ruri's ears like a ghost.

"Ah Ling! Shut up!! Sakakihara glared back with a vicious look.

Seeing that the old brother was really going to be angry, Sakakihara Suzu quickly retracted her head into the quilt, and her movements were not chic, but lay on the ground. She clutched the pillow in her hand, leaving only her eyes to sneak into the door.

Tianhai Jiu Liuli naturally wouldn't be angry because of this kind of thing, she was just curious, curious about what Qi Mingyue was coquettish with Sakakihara Le that night.

She began to ask.

Sakakihara Le's explanation of this matter is not good, and it is not good not to explain it.

It's not easy to explain because Ah Ling, the girl, is eavesdropping here, and wants him to describe what happened the day before yesterday in front of his sister, what face does he have in front of his sister?

It's not good to explain because I don't want to hide the glass.

Liuli is a sincere heart to herself.

"Lejun?" Tianhai Jiuliuli's curious appearance is very cute, and his head is slightly tilted.

"Let's go out first, I'll explain to you when I go out." Sakakihara said and pushed the girl's back.

"Why go out and talk about it?"

"Because my brother has a weak heart!"

"Suzu——!!

Sakakihara Suzu quickly shrunk her head into the quilt, like a turtle.

Sakakihara Le turned his head again to face the Tianhai Jiu Ruri who turned back, and patiently explained: "Because this kind of thing is not easy to say now." ”

has been together for so long, and Tianhai Jiuliuli is not the big girl who didn't know anything at the beginning.

As soon as he heard it, he was embarrassed to hear it, and instantly understood what Ah Ling just said about going to Sakakihara Lesajiao the night before yesterday.

It just so happened that she was soaking in the hot spring that day and taking a nap, and she was in a daze and sensed something unusual.

It turned out to be that "coquettish".

Tianhai Jiu Liuli realized that he didn't know about it, and he was angry and blushing.

She pulled Sakakihara out of the room first, closed the door to the room and spoke in the hallway.

"Excessive."

Tianhai Jiuliuli faced him and muttered in such a complaining tone.

This.

Sakakihara turned his head to the side, not knowing what he should say at the moment.

He feels like the kind of man who has been caught by his wife, and he is currently being forced into a corner by his wife for careful interrogation, and he has a feeling of pressure in his heart unconsciously.

"Lejun~" Tianhai Jiuliuli stretched out his voice, learning to half-close his eyes like July, "Is there anything Lejun wants to say?" ”

"My bad!"

"What's wrong?"

"It's wrong that you shouldn't be carrying Liuli on your back."

"Got it."

"Understood, next time I'll let Liuli know before acting."

"But not this."

"Not this?"

Sakakihara thought about it carefully, and really couldn't think of anything wrong.

Tianhai Jiu Liuli sighed lightly before continuing: "Don't you think that kind of time is inappropriate? Suzu and no Yuki are right across from you, what if they see it? It's going to teach them badly. ”

It turns out that Ruri is worried about this.

Liuli's idea is really the simplest.

But Ah Ling, this girl still needs me to take it bad? I'm afraid she'll show you something weird!

"But Liuli, they seem to have seen it."

“.”

There was inexplicable silence for a while.

"They. See? ”

"Well, probably Ah Ling is absolutely aware of it anyway, and I only found out about it after the fact."

"July knows?"

She was so attentive, I think she should have known about it at the time."

"That's July, she."

Tianhai Jiuliuli didn't dare to think about that picture, and became serious while blushing, "That's not good!" No matter what July thinks, if she does something wrong, Lejun shouldn't get used to her! ”

"What Ruri said is, I was wrong."

"And," Tianhai Jiu Liuli lengthened his tone again, "Le Jun doesn't have to worry about what happened between you and July now, aren't you all like that every day?" What more could I say?"

Liuli's words seemed a little rusty and polite.

Although the two sisters are currently harmonious, not to mention, they are both vinegar jars.

Usually they say that "after all, they are disgusted by their brother, and they are not as handsome as other sisters", and they have to think about it.

"Ruri"

"What's wrong?" Tianhai Jiuliuli muttered.

"Just"

Sakakihara is still a little hard to say.

For July's cold face, Sakakihara Le can still laugh and tease her.

But in the face of Liuli, who will be shy and simple in nature, he really can't pull his face to tease her, and say something embarrassing to her.

"Lejun has something to say, I'll listen to it."

"Just"

How should this be said?

Straight to say, don't you want to be with Liuli like that and that? Rather, for other reasons

If you don't want to talk to me, don't tell me, I'm not as good as July."

Ruri's tone tickled Sakakihara's heart anxiously.

"Okay. What I want to say is, Liuli, don't you value the agreement between us very much? So that kind of thing, I still want to put it at the time we agreed before, when you are ready. ”

When Tianhai Jiuliuli heard this, his tone was inexplicably low and lost:

"Didn't Lejun understand my words before?"

"Of course I understand, but the agreement is still the agreement."

"The agreement is the agreement, but the kind of thing that Lejun and July can do again. There is no agreement. In the end, Lejun has been in July, more coquettish than me, and happier than Lejun."

Oops, oops, oops, Liuli said this

Sakakihara was anxious, and he especially wanted to coax her well.

"Don't get me wrong, I didn't mean that."

"I know that Lejun is coaxing me to be happy again, Lejun will find July, and I will cook you a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner."

"Huh! Don't go. ”

I saw the back of Liuli turning around and leaving.

Sakakihara tried to hold her hand, but couldn't. He froze where he was, anxious and a little empty.

How can this be?

Looking sideways, the culprit, Suzu Sakakihara, a bastard girl, was still holding the crack in the door, and secretly laughed and overheard the conversation between the two.

Still laughing?!

You're still smiling?!

As soon as she saw Sakakihara catch a glimpse of her, she immediately retracted her head and shrank her head.

"Suzu!!"

Sakakihara forced open the wooden door, and Sakakihara immediately curled up into the quilt on the floor in a panic.

"Look how I clean you up!"

"Ahhh Dude! You can't coax Sister Liuli! Can't blame me! ”

"It's not you talking nonsense! Can she be jealous! ”

"It's a fact that you're jealous! It's something that will have to be fixed sooner or later! Other! Don't pull my quilt! It's going to be bad!! ”

The mess was messy, and it also alarmed the seven bright moons of Tianhai who taught Tianhai Snow to make tea next door.

She rushed over when she heard the sound, and just happened to bump into the brother and sister who were scuffling together.

“.”

"July! Sister July! Sakakihara Suzu tugged at the quilt, as if she had found a savior, "Help me!" ”

Tianhai Qi Mingyue first watched and watched the two fight with great interest, standing at the door with his hands on his chest: "What's the matter?" ”

"Dude! Ahh Brother he. If he can't coax Sister Liuli, he will blame me!! Suzu Sakakihara tore the sheets with all her might.

"It's not like you bastard girl is arching the fire next to you! Apologize to me! And your feet! Don't kick me in the face! Stinks to death! ”

"Then stink you!"

Seeing such a situation, Tianhai Qimingyue couldn't help but press her swollen temples.

Sometimes these two siblings are like that.

I'm almost in the third year of high school, and I'm no different from elementary school students.

Maybe the same will be true when you go to college in the future.

"Give me peace first! Tell me one by one! ”

It took about another ten minutes for the situation to calm down.

This also attracted the snow of the heavenly sea waiting for the seven bright moons of the heavenly sea next door.

The two brothers and sisters sat cross-legged on their sides, facing the two of them.

After seeing them look at each other, they still have a look of "hum! ignore you", Tianhai Qimingyue is no longer able to complain.

"It's quite a blessing to have a fight on New Year's Eve."

"Anyway, it's my brother's own problem!"

"Ah Ling, you're embarrassed to say! It's been over there! ”

"I'm just telling the truth!"

"Alright, alright."

Tianhai Qi Mingyue sighed helplessly, "Brother too, what are you doing with your sister sauce." My sister has already made it very clear. ”

That's right

There's only one reason why Liuli didn't coax you - you haven't been looking for July and haven't come to me.

"What the hell does my brother think?"

Sakakihara became serious and explained, "It's actually very simple, I don't want to be so casual. ”

"Brother wants to be formal?"

That's pretty much what it means. In addition, I'm embarrassed to ask Liuli for what to do.,Since the last time I made Liuli so embarrassed.。 ”

When Tianhai Qi Mingyue heard this, she glanced at him, "The faceless brother is still embarrassed." ”

"That's it!"

"Ah Ling, shut up!"

"Slightly!"

"Since things are all in this place, isn't it very simple to solve them? The elder brother took the initiative to find his sister. ”

“.”

Sakakihara understands this truth, but he is inexplicably a little struggling in his heart.

He would think about facing the shy Liuli, and ask her if she wanted to come to the love plot with him, which can really recall the embarrassing scene in the living room, and his heart is a little overstepping.

Tianhai Qi Mingyue sensed his thoughts and asked again:

"Why don't I have so many ideas then?"

Sakakihara Le suddenly became serious, and glanced obliquely at the seven bright moons of the heavenly sea, "July you?" Anyway, in July, you often talk with a cold face, and it is more comfortable for me to be more straightforward with you. ”

"Then wouldn't it be nice for you to be so straightforward with your sister?"

"You don't understand in July, getting along with you, getting along with Liuli feels different."

"Brother just said try it."

“.”

"It's all said, last time-"

"Try it."
