404 Kyoto's son-in-law

Not only does Kyoto not have an airport, but even the subway is not very developed, so I wonder if there are more cultural relics in the city that need to be protected, or if the slow and rickety buses are more in line with the taste of the people of Kyoto.

In terms of the construction of transportation routes, Tokyo has a unique advantage, a major road can be repaired wherever it wants, and there are no nail houses or cultural relics protection, because well-wishers have already helped him complete the demolition work.

The Kamogawa River is not a small stream, but a body of water that runs through the whole of Kyoto, and the Kamo River and the Koya River are located in the Kamogawa Delta River at the Kamo Bridge.

Each section of the Kamogawa River has a different view, but the most popular is the Kamogawa Delta area and the lower area.

As a local, Sakura knows the way and knows that although someone has been used to running since childhood, he is lazy to take a single step when he goes to a running place, and he can ride a car when he can, and he can ride a bicycle when he can. Therefore, the bus route I chose was to get off the bus in three minutes to reach the Kamogawa River.

But although it has been sung in countless literary works, audio, video and film, how beautiful can a river be? The scenery of the magnificent Qijun may be able to amaze people for a while, but what really makes people forget to return is the cultural heritage hidden in the scenery, and the Duck River is such a river.

Kamogawa is the Kamogawa of Kyoto, and Kyoto is the Kyoto of Kamogawa.

Adjacent to the three and four most prosperous streets in Kyoto, and going back two hundred years, it can be said that the people of Kyoto have gone from life to business, washing clothes by the Kamogawa River, introducing running water for fire prevention, dyeing cloth, and merchants from all over the country gather along the river, and the goods are transported to the whole country; From babies to adults, when I was a child, I fished in the Kamogawa River, and when I grew up, I held hands next to the Kamogawa River, and everything was closely related to the Kamogawa River.

Even now, on spring nights, the people of Kyoto are accustomed to filling their stomachs in the dazzling snack street of "Pontocho", and then leaving a take-out snack with a take-out snack along the Kamogawa River, feeling the cool breeze blowing on the river, listening to the laughter and whispers of passers-by, and throwing the tiredness and worries of the day into the water.

From the time he stepped on Kyoto soil, Sakura Yamauchi automatically switched to the Kyoto dialect, which is Kyoto dialect. Because there are many people in the family, and his hometown is almost all over the country, Kyosuke Hojo has a relatively good understanding of the dialects of several major regions of neon. One of my favorites is Sakura's Kyoto dialect, which is very elegant and gentle, soft, even if Sakura is such a vigorous (impatient) girl, she is forced to lower her speed when she speaks Kyoto, and it sounds like a bully.

In fact, each sentence will end with a variety of endings. For example, thank you wow~~ What are you doing~~ I really like you wow~~

On the other hand, Osaka, which is next door to Kyoto, is very close, but it feels like it's two places apart. Osaka dialect is generally louder and faster.

When a Kyoto person talks to an Osaka person, people who don't know why will think that the Osaka people are bullying the Kyoto people. Well, Osaka dialect is quite suitable for British pears, obviously very weak, but they just pretend to be very powerful and raise the pitch. It will make people more like bullying her, and the fun of bullying will be doubled.

After the two got on the bus, what Kyosuke Hojo didn't expect was that Sakura actually met two old men he knew in the car. He said that he was an old man, but in fact, he was seventy years old after introducing himself, and he looked like a young man of fifty.

Well, the reason why I said it was a young man in his fifties was because Sakura didn't know what to say, and the two old men who actually said it were holding Kyosuke Hojo's arm and giving up their seats to him. He refused, but the kindness of the two old men was very resolute:

"This is the treatment that a son-in-law in Kyoto should have!"

It was Sakura Yamauchi himself, still standing firmly holding on to the railing, which would be squeezed in the middle by the two old ladies, chatting about various things, and the most he said was to "insult" Tokyo and praise Kyoto, not only the two old ladies, but also the other passengers in the car laughed very happily.

During the interval of talking, Sakura quietly glanced at Kyosuke Hojo, meaning I'm amazing~~

Kyosuke Hojo, who seemed to have a needle in his butt sitting on the seat, smiled helplessly, only feeling that this favor from his beloved wife was really a bit heavy.

Sakura's contagion seems to be innate, whether it is facing peers or elders, she can find the perfect way to get along, and the younger generations will regard her as a respectable senior, her peers will introduce her as a confidant, and the elders will be happy to have such a smart and well-behaved junior.

Her voice is melodious, even if it is just three bytes, it can be called elegant, but it has to be a little patient, and impatient people are afraid that they will get angry if they can't finish a sentence, but it is more likely

Her cheerfulness and vitality seem out of place with the slow, soothing pace of life in Kyoto, but in a wonderful way it unifies.

Kyosuke Hojo sat on the chair that Sakura had snatched from the hands of the two seventy-year-old grandmothers, silently watching Sakura at this moment.

Now she is smiling and smiling, even the people of Kyoto who are extremely measured, have released full enthusiasm under her infection, and even Kyosuke Hojo has been greatly taken care of, and a few people who have just finished shopping even shared some food with him, and gave him a small fan from the mall, telling him that he can fan casually if he has nothing to do.

No one praised Sakura for being full of vitality, but the two old men asked her to be a little angry, but Hojo Kyosuke knew that this was not really to blame, if these Kyoto people really praised Sakura's vitality, they would think she was noisy, and when they said that they were blaming, they would block other people's mouths in advance.

The only thing that makes Kyosuke Hojo a little jealous is that Sakura, who speaks Kyoto dialect, even if he just speaks very ordinary words, seems to be coquettish, but fortunately, the person of the conversation is already in his seventies.

After listening to it for a long time, he also understood, it turned out that these two old men were colleagues of Sakura's grandparents, although they are now retired.

Sakura in the introduction in addition to saying that this is my boyfriend,Of course, he also mentioned the identity of Hojo Kyosuke's family and the manga artist,Although the two old men were reserved,But still let out a few exclamations,When I was about to get off the car, I couldn't help but let Sakura make sure to bring Hojo Kyosuke to the house to play.,Just like when I was a child.。

"Hee-hee, wow~~ I'll go next time~~"

Sakura smiled and waved her hands vigorously, her eight neat teeth glittering white.

"Ah, it's been a long time since I've seen my grandparents, and it's great to be so energetic."

As the girl said this, she naturally hugged Kyosuke Hojo's arm, and then raised a small face full of smiles, and said with a smile:

"How! Wouldn't it be nice to come out with me! ”

As if Momotaro possessed her, she begged for rewards one by one.

Although the fact that the old man gave up his seat was not honorable, it was as Sakura said, very happy!

Other boyfriends have to give up their seats to their girlfriends, and my Sakura punches them directly...... Swindle...... Well, coax the old man to give me a seat.

"Next time I'll take a step and sit on me!" Kyosuke Hojo was embarrassed to say that he was indeed happy, but he turned his face away from Sakura's gaze and said so.

"Hey~~ Kyosuke is shy wow~"

Sakura grabbed Kyosuke's arm and came to him, with a small face on his back, and said a cute and tactful Kyoto accent.

This kind of slow, gentle and gentle tone will indeed make people swoon. Kyosuke Hojo was equally overwhelmed, so he put his right hand around the girl's back and wrapped his arms around her waist.

After getting out of the car, the two waited for the green light and followed the crowd across the two roads to the Kamo Bridge, which is a great place to see Kyoto. Mt. Hiei to the north and Higashiyama to the east are clearly visible, and farther away is the legendary Mt. Ruyi, on which the word "big" can also be seen clearly.

"This is the best place to watch the "Big Characters Send Fire" (Five Mountains Send Fire) conference."

Sakura was lying on the railing of the bridge, her upper body almost sticking out of the bridge, but she only needed to help her, her hands in front of her forehead to form a pergola and look into the distance, looking not worried about falling at all.

If you're still worried with Kyosuke by your side, it's useless to worry.

"Let's take a look this year."

Kyosuke Hojo gently caressed Sakura's back with one hand, and also looked out at the lush mountains in the distance, and as evening approached, the steaming water vapor that had risen during the day seemed to settle down slightly, and the forest and mountains became deeper and deeper.

"Daimon Sending Fire" is a huge bonfire in the shape of a character that is lit on the six mountains that surround Kyoto Castle, and the fire is so large that you can clearly see the words from dozens of kilometers away, so that if you see it, environmentalists may immediately commit suicide in shame. However, there is no need to worry about fire safety, because there are countless people around each small fire, and one person can extinguish the fire with a single spit.

The meaning of this ritual is to send the ghosts of the ancestors back to the Yellow Springs during the Obon Festival. It's a bit similar to the Day of the Dead in the West, in short, it's about worshipping the deceased.

"It's very crowded, and it is said that every year people who are squeezed off the Shigega Bridge are able to block the Kamogawa River." Sakura looked back.

"It's okay, I'll throw them all down before they squeeze in."

"Hey, that's good~"

The sparkling waters of the Kamogawa River under the bridge are not very current, but the sound of the murmuring water can be heard clearly even in the chaotic daytime, making people wonder if they are in the middle of the city or have entered a warp realm.

The left and right sides of the river are not the same height, with water on one side and a stone riverbed exposed on the other.

"Let's go, I'll take you to the Jumping Turtle." Sakura jumped down from the foot of the guardrail, took Kyosuke Hojo's hand and trotted impatiently.

She really doesn't fit in with the slow city of Kyoto.

Descending from the side path, the two soon came to the river.

Osaka, which is next door, is the real "city of water", and its water area is far more developed than Kyoto's, but its river is separated by guardrails and appears simply as a waterway, so the river is not close to people. On the other hand, the Kamogawa River runs through the entire Kyoto without any guardrails, and there are many people walking and fishing on the shore. On a clear summer day, you can often see groups of kindergarten children picnicking on the banks of the Kamogawa River. Even if they don't fall into the water, they are afraid that before the child can call for help, the swimmers in the river will already rescue the person.

Not far below the bridge is the Kamogawa Delta, where the Takaya River and Kamogawa River rivers meet, and the river is the widest and the longest in the river. As the name suggests, the "Jumping Rock Bridge" is a bridge that jumps over stones, and instead of arching bridges, the two sides of the river are connected by stones placed on the riverbed and raised above the water.

"When we were in kindergarten, we often came here and used jumping over stones as a test of courage."

Sakura stepped on a square stone and whispered in his mouth.

She was clearly stepping steadily, but her left hand was fanning as if she was out of balance, and her right hand was still tightly pulling Kyosuke Hojo behind her, looking like she was about to forcibly drag the other person into the water.

"Hmph, if you're here, we'll be the most powerful couple!"

The girl said vividly, I want to know that kindergarten children, broken arms and legs, even a jumping stone that will be close to each other is enough to be called a huge challenge.

The corners of Kyosuke Hojo's mouth were slightly hooked, and he listened to Sakura talk about things when he was a child.

I heard her say that the first time she just jumped on the side of the rock and almost fell into the water, leaving a shadow. Listening to her say that she was teased by her friends, she jumped five stones in a row to the middle of the water in a fit of anger, and when it was difficult to ride a tiger, she heard the exclamations of her friends, so she continued to jump forward for dignity; Listen to her say how to become the king of children with her increasingly exquisite jumping and flying stone skills......

Like other Kyoto people, it seems that the girl's childhood is inseparable from this river, the Kamogawa River.

Suddenly, the little hand holding Kyosuke Hojo stopped.

"Hmm......"

Yamauchi Sakura let out a deep groan full of wisdom, stopped jumping stones, and slowly squatted down.

Kyosuke Hojo, who was being pulled tightly, also had to squat down, and then he saw Sakura gently stroke the jumping stone under his feet with his hand.

It is a turtle-shaped jumping stone, the shape is very cute, there are not only square jumping stones here, but also turtles, starfish, etc., so children will like to play this game so much.

Sakura, who was squatting down, looked very seriously, and Kyosuke Hojo looked from the side and saw the girl's bright amber eyes full of concentration and thought.

So he also stepped forward, squatted on a turtle with Sakura, and stretched out his hand to stroke the huge stone turtle together, and together understood the mystery.

At this time, there are many people who come to walk by the river, and there are also some people who want to cross the jumping stone bridge, but fortunately, there are two stones side by side where there are special-shaped jumping stones, so in the face of people coming and going, Hojo Kyosuke just raised his head and gave an apologetic smile to explain. Sakura didn't care, and Hojo Kyosuke suspected that if someone really wanted to talk to her, they would be dragged down by this guy to study the stone together.

Pedestrians walked five, and small fish swam seven. Yes, there are a lot of fish in Kamogawa, and it's quite large, so there are quite a lot of people fishing.

Sakura seemed to have finally finished her research, and turned her head to look at Kyosuke Hojo, and that cute little face was full of excitement:

"Naa! Kyosuke, is this turtle similar to me!? ”

The girl's tone was so excited that it was as if she had suddenly discovered that she was a human being, and she didn't know that she had solved the unsolved mysteries of the world.

"Turtle? You? ”

Kyosuke Hojo blinked, Rao has been a childhood sweetheart for so many years, and he has not been able to keep up with Sakura's train of thought.

However, his invincible brain still quickly gave an answer, but he was immediately vetoed, although he taught Sakura a lot of knowledge brought by his previous life, but there was nothing about turtles, this guy wouldn't be talking about that kind of thing!

"Where's the like?"

Hojo Kyosuke said unabashedly, then lowered his head and looked at the stone turtle, guessing:

"All the same cute?"

"Hey~~"

Sakura smiled coquettishly:

"I know I'm cute, but I'm not~"

When the two of them spoke, passers-by would stop and look at them curiously, give a kind smile and move on.

"Where?"

Sakura Yamauchi muttered, and Kyosuke Hojo guessed that this guy didn't know what it looked like, and she would say this mostly just a nerve.

The girl stood up, patted the dust on her hands on her buttocks, and said casually:

"I don't know where it's like, it's not like it~"

She said it very freely without a little reluctance, and then stepped on the stone and pulled Hojo Kyosuke strode forward.

As soon as this sentence came out, Kyosuke Hojo felt like it.

I don't know how long the turtle has been washed by the river in the Kamogawa River, and how many generations have stepped on it, but it doesn't care and doesn't care at all.

What about Sakura?

"If you think everything I say has a lot of meaning, you're very wrong, stupid Kyosuke!"
