Going downstairs to pour Naoko a cup of barley tea, Hikaru Takikawa went back to the room upstairs, where she had already sat down next to Naruse.

Naoko's face is really bad today......

Hikaru Takikawa looked at her eyes that were still a little tired, and when she looked over, he changed his smile again, "It's only barley tea." ”

"Barley tea will do." Naoko smiled at her and took the cup, "Thank you." ”

She took a sip of barley tea, and Naruse looked at her from the side and asked, "Has Naoko really slept enough?" ”

"I've been asleep for seven or eight hours." Naoko put down the cup, "I can't sleep anymore." ”

"Okay."

Naruse also knew that since she had come over, it was impossible for her to go back to catch up on sleep, so she didn't say much, "Are you hungry?" ”

"It's okay......"

"Naoko probably hasn't eaten since she got up." Hikaru Takikawa didn't sit down after he came up, and turned around and walked out, "I'll go get some snacks." ”

"Ah, no need to ......"

"Don't take too much." Naruse raised, "I'm going to have lunch later." ”

"I know." Hikaru Takikawa raised his hand and didn't look back.

Watching her go down, Naoko looked at her boyfriend again, "Has Harumi eaten in the morning?" ”

"Well, eat whatever you want."

Hikaru Takikawa quickly came up with a few packets of small biscuits, and as he sat down, he said, "Mom is already beating the pork chops, and if you start preparing them, it won't take long to eat them." ”

Naoko nodded and opened a pack of cookies.

"Thanks to the pork sent by Naoko, we have something to eat, thank you~"

Hikaru Takikawa thanked her, and both Morimi and Starfish joined in and thanked her.

"No, you're welcome......"

Naoko shook her head, and put down the biscuits she had just picked up, "Those meats were sent back by my parents, and I said I wanted to give them to you at the beginning." ”

Hikaru Takikawa smiled at her, "Then again, I really gave a lot of meat, and I feel like I won't be able to finish it for a few days." ”

"And I'm tired of eating meat all the time." Morimi said.

She shook her head, "You won't get tired of eating high-grade meat, even if you eat it at noon, you still want to eat it at night." ”

"Yes. The meat that Naoko's parents brought from the farm at the institute was similar to the high-end beef and pork that could be bought on the market...... With so much at once, I really don't know how to thank Naoko. ”

"Put it in the refrigerator and eat it slowly."

Naoko smiled at them, her hands suddenly empty, and when she turned her head again, Naruse was already holding the biscuit and bringing it to her mouth.

"It's really anxious to look at it if you don't eat it."

“……”

She smiled and opened her mouth to take the biscuit.

One feeds, the other eats, the two are so close that no one is around, Mori saw his eyes on their faces, and suddenly proposed: "Since there is so much meat, why don't you go to my house for a barbecue at night." ”

"Okay." Hikaru Takikawa also responded.

Starfish nodded, and Naruse and Naoko had no opinion, so the matter was finalized.

"Do you need me to bring some more meat?"

"No, the meat that Naoko sent is enough."

Naoko only ate a small packet of biscuits, and the few people sat and chatted for a while, when Mrs. Takikawa's voice came from below, telling them to go downstairs and prepare for lunch.

"Let's go down."

A few people went downstairs and came to the kitchen, where a freshly fried pork chop was being fished out of the oil pan.

Wrapped in egg wash and breadcrumbs, the pork chops were fried golden brown and exuded an enticing aroma, and the starfish, which had been a little low since before Naoko came, also temporarily lifted her spirits, her eyes fixed on the golden pieces of meat that were being cut into the plate.

"Sit down first." Hikaru Takikawa smiled at a few people and went in to help.

Naoko also followed, and before she waited long, the two came out with plates, and the sliced pork chops and shredded cabbage were placed together, and the color and fragrance were so fragrant that it was difficult to take your eyes off.

"Wait a minute, there's also Mommy's special tonkatsu sauce."

Hikaru Takikawa brought small bowls to several people, and poured Mrs. Takikawa's proud work into them.

When she came out of the kitchen and sat down at the table, the few began to enjoy the delicious pork chops.

"I'm moving!"

"I started ......"

Naruse picks up a piece of tonkatsu, and with a little bit of chopsticks, you can see the faintly overflowing delicious gravy, then dip it in the sauce, put it in your mouth, and bite into it, the outer coat is fried crispy, and the inside is tender and the taste is layered. With a slight bite, the juice overflows, and the aroma instantly fills the mouth.

"Hmm...... It's delicious! Starfish's eyes widened.

"I'll just say that my mother's tonkatsu is delicious." Hikaru Takikawa smiled at her.

"Yes." Morimi covered his mouth, "The flavor of the sauce is also unique. ”

"Thank you." Mrs. Takigawa smiled at the children, "If it's delicious, eat more." ”

Naoko has eaten a few biscuits since she woke up, and her appetite has long been aroused, so she is not polite at this time, she picks up the pork chops and dips them in the sauce, and then picks up some shredded vegetables and sends them to her mouth together.

"Hmm......"

Naruse looked at her and continued to put the pork chops in his mouth.

Mrs. Takikawa prepared a large piece of pork chop for each child, which was served with fragrant and glutinous rice, and everyone was satisfied.

"That's a lot...... Well fed and ......"

Coming down from the table, Starfish slumped on the couch and let out a sigh of contentment.

The other four felt the same way.

"It's delicious~ Come back next time." Hikaru Takikawa said to his companions, "Mom welcomes everyone too." ”

"Hmm." Naruse answered, and Naoko looked at him and leaned on his shoulder.

Because they were so satisfied, they didn't have much to think about other things for the time being.

After relaxing on the couch for a while, Naruse got up again and went to the kitchen.

And after a while, he came out again.

"I want to help with the dishes......"

He sat down again, "Kicked out." ”

"I'll go." Naoko got up and was also pulled by him, "It's the same for whoever goes, let's let my daughter go." ”

Hikaru Takikawa smiled and got up and went to the kitchen.

There were only a few dishes to wash, and she quickly washed them out, and asked, "Do you have any plans for the afternoon?" ”

Starfish looked at Naruse.

He sat up straight, and when he didn't see it, "Aren't you going to Morimi's house to barbecue, then let's go early." Toss it early, go home early, and go to school tomorrow. ”

"Ah, I almost thought it was Saturday...... Okay, let's get over early. Hikaru Takikawa nodded.

"Now that the barbecue meat is here, do you need to prepare something else?"

"If you want vegetables, you can pick them at the back of my yard."

"Then that's all that's left is beer......"

"It's a drink."

"Aha."

After discussing for a while, they said goodbye to Mrs. Takikawa and left Takigawa's house together.

Hikaru Takikawa got into his car and took the starfish home first, then turned back to pick up Morimi.

The main ingredients are ready, but there are still some things to buy, so Naruse and Naoko go to the supermarket.

"I've eaten too much and feel a little sleepy again......"

"I'll go to Morimi's house later, and Naoko will find a room to lie down for a while."

"Is Chunhai with me?"

"Okay."

The two of them bought some things and went straight to Morimi's house.

The other three had already arrived first, and by the time Naruse stopped in the yard, they had already moved the grill out.

"Prepare first." Hikaru Takikawa said.

It was just after noon, and the afternoon was still very long, and a few people sat on the edge and chatted for a while, and Naoko couldn't help but yawn.

"Which room is more convenient, let Naoko lie down for a while." Naruse asks Morimi.

"Do you want to sleep, then go straight to my room." Morimi said, "It's quieter up there, too. ”

Naoko thought about it for a moment and agreed.

And seeing that Naruse was going up with her, Morimi stopped him, "What are you doing up there?" ”

"Sleep together."

“……”

She glanced at him a few times, "Don't do anything strange in my bed, it's a hassle to wash the sheets, I only washed them once a while ago." ”

"It won't!"

Naoko blushed slightly, and Naruse knew exactly what she called "some time ago".

"Just lie down for a while."
