The day when a bathhouse was opened in Japan

As soon as he said it, Zhao Wei took a piece of paper, cut it in half, wrote Xiaoying's name on one, and wrote Xiaolin's name on the other, crumpled them into two small paper balls, put them in a pen holder and shook them for a long time , and poured out.Zhao Wei raised his head and said to the clone, "Choose one."

The clone hesitated for a moment, picked up the one on the left, and Zhao Wei took the one on the right.

The two looked at each other and unwrapped their paper balls.

The doppelganger is Sakura, and Zhao Wei's is Xiao Lin.

"Ah... I got Xiao Lin..." Zhao Wei was a little dazed, feeling very complicated, both happy and disappointed.

The avatar patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, don't think too much, you will accompany Xiaolin well tomorrow, remember, if you don't succeed, you will succeed, and you will complete the great career of losing your virginity. Don't worry about Sakura, I Sure to give her a merry Christmas."

Zhao Wei smiled: "These words should have been said by me."

Just after finalizing the appointment, Zhao Wei urged the nine-character mantra and withdrew his avatar.

He sat in front of the computer, furtively, and with excitement, entered "what to pay attention to for the first time" into the search engine, then clicked on a few interesting search results, and looked them up.

At this time, Yuewei pushed the door open and entered: "Brother, you are up!"

Zhao Wei closed the browser in a panic, pretending to be calm and replied: "Yes, Xiaowei, what do you need from me?"

"Well, I want to discuss it with you." Yue Wei sat down, "I'm going back to celebrate Christmas Eve today, and my mother said that she would like to invite you to our family dinner."

"Ah? But, He Jinmei has already been preparing for today's dinner." Zhao Wei said awkwardly.

"Well, brother, don't go." Yue Wei said suddenly, "My grandfather will attend this dinner, and other relatives will also go. To put it bluntly, it is the gathering of the Sopranos...I don't want you to go..."

When Zhao Wei heard "The Sopranos Gathering", he remembered the scene in "The Godfather". He knew that Yuewei didn't want him to get involved in the underworld.

"I understand what you mean, I won't go." Zhao Wei nodded.

"Haha, this is the best way. Mom will call to invite you later, so be sure to decline." Yue Weiqian urged Wan Wan.

"Okay, I see." Zhao Wei looked at his sister with a smile.

finally finalized

Chapter 3 Christmas Eve

"Well, I'm off to work then."

Zhao Wei waited for Yuewei to leave the room, opened the webpage that was closed just now, and read it intently.

Ah, so that's the case, as expected, just looking at Ivy is the rhythm of death...

……

Today's Christmas Eve, many people went to celebrate the festival, and there were very few people who came to take a bath. It was just after six o'clock, and He Jinmei simply put up a sign saying that it was closed early because of the festival.

Yue Wei was taken away, Zhao Wei politely declined Shiina Qianyue's invitation, Shiina understood his thoughts and did not force her.

Nobuko also went home, and now only Watsumi, Akane, Sakura, and Zhao Wei are left in the Hattori Sento.

Everyone gathered in the dining room on the second floor, and Tsumi had been busy for a long time, and finally began a feast of carefully crafted meals.

"cheers!"

Zhao Wei drank champagne, looked at the turkey on the table, and finally expressed the question in his heart: "Isn't Japan a country dominated by Shintoism? Do you believe in Christianity? Why do you celebrate Christmas Eve?"

Xiaoqian said with a smile: "The main thing is to create a lively and festive atmosphere, don't care what kind of festival it is!"

"That's right." Zhao Wei nodded.

"Japan is the most westernized Asian country, but at the same time it still stubbornly preserves its own traditions. In a few days until New Year's Day, Oni-chan will go to the shrine with us!"

"Okay, I also really want to see how Japan celebrates the New Year." Zhao Wei couldn't help being curious when he remembered that Japanese girls would wear gorgeous kimonos and go to shrines to pray for the New Year in comics. , would love to see what it would look like in reality.

At this time, Zhao Wei suddenly thought of a question: "By the way, countries like South Korea, Vietnam, and Mongolia that belong to the Chinese cultural circle all celebrate the Spring Festival. Why does Japan, which also belongs to the Chinese cultural circle, not celebrate the Spring Festival? What about New Year's Day in the West?"

"Let me tell you, Oni-chan, as I said just now, Japan is the most Westernized Asian country, and some of the original customs have changed during the process of Westernization. In fact, Japan used to celebrate the Spring Festival. After the Meiji Restoration , the whole country was rapidly westernized and learned from the West. At that time, the Western New Year’s Day began to be celebrated, and the original Spring Festival was abandoned. However, in the Wakayama area and Okinawa, people there are still used to celebrating the Lunar New Year. Also, Festivals like Tanabata and Double Ninth Festival are celebrated in Japan on the Gregorian calendar. Tanabata is July 7, and Chongyang is September 7. However, the 9 solar terms in the old calendar are still used in the news. Interestingly, many people in Japan are now calling for the resumption of the Spring Festival, because many Chinese and Korean tourists will come to Japan during the long Spring Festival holiday.” Sakura patiently explained.

Zhao Wei understood, and nodded again and again: "So that's how it is!"

"Oh, it's okay, Sakura, I'm almost falling asleep because of your talking about it." Xiaoqian said, "Hurry up and eat, why do you have to tell this history lesson at the dinner table?"

"That's true." Sakura cut off a piece of meat from the turkey leg, and gnawed it beautifully.

"cheers!"

After drinking and eating, everyone began to help He Tsumi clean up the mess.

Zhao Wei praised: "As expected of Watsumi, if I were you, I would have opened a restaurant a long time ago, and I would definitely make more money than opening a bathhouse!"

He Jinmei smiled and shook her head: "My craftsmanship can only deceive you."

Xiao Ying smiled and said, "I heard that my father's cooking skills are very good, much better than that of my mother..."

"Hush!" Zhao Wei quickly put his index finger to his mouth, and winked at Sakura, but Xiaoqian had already heard it, and she turned cold, put down the things she was packing, and walked out.

Sakura was extremely annoyed: "It's all my fault, I said something I shouldn't have said at this time!"

Zhao Wei comforted her and said, "It's okay, I'll go and persuade her."

"Oni-chan, please, the atmosphere was good tonight, everyone was very happy, and they all blamed me..." Sakura's tears rolled in her eyes.

"Don't worry, I'll persuade her right away." Zhao Wei comforted Sakura a few words, and then chased her out.

I saw Xiaoqian thumping down the stairs, came to the entrance, changed her shoes, and was about to go out.

"Xiaoqian, wait for me!" Seeing that Xiaoqian was about to go out, Zhao Wei easily jumped from the stairs to Xiaoqian's side.

Zhao Wei thinks that his movements are chic and elegant, and Xiaoqian will definitely blush and say "so handsome", but she just curls her lips: "It's best not to show off in front of me with the skills of a three-legged cat."

"Hey, why did you teach me? Are you so unconfident in your teaching level?" Zhao Wei joked after changing his shoes.

"I'm a clever woman, but I can't cook without rice." Xiaoqian responded bluntly, "Why do you want to come out with me?"

"That's wrong. I just had a full meal. I went out for a walk to digest my food. I met you just to say hello. How can I follow you?" Zhao Wei said with a playful smile.

"Okay, then don't follow me." After speaking, Xiaoqian's figure flashed, and she was already a foot away, running away along the alley.

Zhao Wei was surprised: "So fast!"

He pulled himself together, used the technique of shrinking the ground, and followed out.

Xiaoqian ran in front of her at a high speed, but she seemed to control her speed intentionally, making Zhao Weineng confuse her, but she couldn't catch up.

Zhao Wei knew that Xiaoqian was trying to test his strength, so he gritted his teeth, took big strides, and chased after her fiercely.
