The Trickster's Ninth Episode

"Hey!" No matter how free Yu Gonglian is at home, she will be restrained by her mother's orders. After obediently responding, she ran to get tea leaves skillfully.

"Well, don't be so troublesome." Seeing this, Sae Niijima deliberately refused.

"No trouble, you can't just let the guests sit around like this, just pass the time, I hope you don't feel bored." Yu Gonglian replied with a light smile, and then walked back to her room.

After a while, when Ren Amamiya reappeared, Sae Niijima and Futaba's eyes lit up.

Ren Amamiya took her father and put it away alone to keep the tea she drank. She changed into a black Japanese-style bathrobe, her messy curly hair was pulled back and tied into short braids, and her glasses were taken off. , came to the front of the two with a smile.

"Come with me to the tea room, please."

"You know how to play tea?" Sae Niijima parted his red lips slightly, unable to tell whether it was surprise or surprise.

"The son of a tea farmer must know a little bit."

Ren Amamiya led the way, Sae Niijima followed, and Futaba followed behind in a daze, looking stunned.It's like discovering a shocking treasure by accident.

Naturally, there is a special tea room in Ren Amamiya's house. The traditional four-and-a-half-fold tatami mats are small and elegant.

It's May, and the bed in the tea room is hung with "Quiet Zhiyuan", and a bamboo vase is hung next to it, with a bouquet of peonies that Yugong's mother prefers.

Whether in China or Japan, the tea ceremony is just a performance, which does not add to the quality of the tea itself.It is more of a spiritual pursuit and artistic expression, presenting the tradition and flavor accumulated by tea lovers over the long years.

Sae Niijima never imagined that it would be the first time in his life that he would experience a tea ceremony on such an occasion.

With a vigorous and resolute professionalism, Sae Niijima is not enthusiastic about tea art, which is more formalistic culture in her opinion.She's the kind of person who probably won't attend a professional tea party in her life unless it's necessary for her work one day.

But sitting in the elegant tea room at this moment, the breeze in the afternoon carries the mist of the tea fragrance to create a faint mist, and the handsome young man is performing ancient rituals in the thin clouds.

At this moment Sae Niijima felt as if he understood why so many people like to steal half a day's leisure in the midst of their busy schedules to watch those lively and fragrant tea girls serving tea to themselves.

Ren Amamiya prepared thin tea for Sae Niijima and Futaba.

Matcha is delicious in Japan, and strong tea is better among them.But for those who are not interested in drinking tea, no matter how well this kind of tea is brewed, they will not like it.Moreover, drinking strong tea is tea addiction, while thin tea is more healthy.Some people say that drinking tea is the bitter taste, but Yu Gonglian does not agree with this statement, the tea is mainly clear and turbid, with a long aftertaste.

Therefore, it is more suitable for them to remove its bitterness and reveal its tea fragrance.

Sae Niijima and Futaba recovered from the slightly sinking state when Ren Amamiya passed the tea in front of them.Looking at the smiling face of the young man in front of them, both of them felt a little embarrassed, and hurriedly took the tea bowl to avoid sight.

"That's right, I went to a big city to stay for a month, at least I didn't forget about the tea ceremony."

At this time, a heavy male voice came from the door and attracted everyone's attention. Looking for the reputation, they saw a man who was also wearing a bathrobe, with a natural curly head, and the length of the hair was much longer than that of Amamiya Ren. A samurai-like ponytail, a man who looks very similar to Ren Amamiya but has matured a lot, with a smile on his face with thin stubble, is looking at Ren Amamiya.

"Dad? When did you come back?"

"I've been standing here for quite a while, and you guys are quite focused." Father Yugong smiled casually.

When Sae Niijima and Futaba heard the words, although they knew that the other party was mainly speaking to Ren Amamiya, they each felt a little inexplicably guilty.

"Come on, continue." While speaking, Yugong's father threw a bag into Yugonglian's hand.

"This is the tea I just picked from the factory today. Now that you are back, I just want to send it to the neighbors and folks."

"Now?"

"Otherwise? Since it's your first time to bring guests back, I won't bother to talk about you stealing my tea. Now go to deliver the tea, and come back just to eat, hurry up!"

Chapter 42 The Most Beautiful Boy in the Village

Wearing wooden clogs and walking on the street, Ren Amamiya couldn't help but sighed as the crowd around her gradually gathered.

"As for being so anxious to let me out? At least let me change clothes!"

Although it is [countryside], this is not ancient times!Wearing a bathrobe to go out at night during the non-festival period is something that only the elderly will do.

Thanks to this, Ren Amameiya is now quite eye-catching.

For the native Izu people, Ren Amamiya is probably a relatively well-known character.However, the so-called [countryside] actually has a particularly large population of outsiders—students who came to study abroad, office workers who obeyed the transfer and went to the countryside, freelancers who moved here to live here, and tourists who came to travel because the place is famous. , and even the romanticism of reading "The Dancing Girl of Izu" and running over to try his luck to find a marriage.

Most of the young people in Izu are outsiders like this. For them, such things as "a good local boy who grows up to commit a crime of injury" have either never heard of it, or they have never heard of it. It's just old people's gossip, not something worth studying.

Therefore, under the circumstance that Ren Yugongren's reputation is not big enough to make these people feel bad for him, his existence is very dreamy to the passers-by on the street.

On the modern-style street, a beautiful boy in a kimono clatters on clogs, looking like a young master from an ancient family. Just one glance makes people travel back to the Edo period in a daze, looking handsome And the rebellious Wujiazi visited the market at night.

If Yu Gonglian had a knife on his waist, then some people would really think that he appeared here through time travel.

But the sight of these people has nothing to do with Yugong Lian. Yugong's father asked him to deliver tea. The so-called neighbors and folks refer to people from his father's generation, and some are even from his grandfather's generation. .These people have lived in Izu for a long time. Because of the crime of hurting, Amamiya Ren has completely broken off the relationship with some guys who have been in contact with them on the surface. Therefore, those who Amamiya Ren is going to visit today have a good relationship with the Amamiya family.

Some of them even helped Ren Yugong when she was in the lawsuit.

Father Yugong went to his tea factory early this morning to get some tea, just to let Yugonglian deliver the tea. On the one hand, let him express his gratitude in person, and on the other hand, let him inherit this part of the interpersonal relationship.

Whether it is an elder or a peer, there must always be reciprocity.From Amamiya's father's point of view, no matter whether he graduated from high school or entered a higher school, Ren Amamiya will return to Izu to spend the rest of his life sooner or later, whether he inherits his tea industry and becomes a tea farmer, or throws it away. Going to be an innkeeper with Amamiya Ren's grandfather, the local interpersonal relationship must be good.

In particular, Yu Gonglian still has some gossip, which requires him to use actions to change others' views.

But then again, Yugong's father still hopes that Yugonglian can become a tea farmer like him. These days, being a tea farmer has a lot of subsidies from the government, and the market is good, so he can live a more relaxed life.You can't be called rich, but you can live comfortably.As far as the hot spring industry is concerned, there are too many hot springs here in Izu. Not far from there is Hakone, which is known as the "hometown of hot springs". Faced with the bad faces of the guests, Yugong's father ran away from Yugong's grandpa to start his own business because he couldn't stand it.

Back to the topic, the people Amamiya Ren is going to visit this time are middle-aged and even elderly people, so this dress is also suitable.However, chatting with the elderly is quite a labor-intensive task, which is why Amamiya's father clearly asked him to go out at 14:[-] noon, but he was very sure that he should have dinner when he came back.

Originally, Ren Amamiya had his own bicycle, at least he didn't have to walk by himself.But biking in a bathrobe...forget it.

Ren Amamiya stepped on the wooden clogs and visited each family, and it was half of Izu as soon as she left.It was not until the sun was about to set that we came to the last place.

This is a place called [Grand blue] by the sea, which is both a store and a residence.

Because it's a store, it's not closed yet, so there's no need to knock on the door, just go in.

Ren Amamiya pushed the door open, walked into the shop on clogs, and...

I saw a group of naked strong men.

And those naked strong men in the store, because someone walked into the store, they all cast their eyes on the door by coincidence.

It was supposed to be a moment of silence, but Amamiya Ren was not affected at all, holding the last bag of tea in her hand, smiling and ignoring the hunks with obviously wrong styles, and directly standing at the cash register with the innermost one The beautiful woman behind said hello: "Long time no see, Miss Nanahua, where's Uncle?"

"Eh?" The woman called Nanahua still didn't realize it.

"Oh oh oh! Amamiya! Are you finally willing to come drink with us?!" Among the group of burly men, the one who looked older, with a black cropped head, was called Tokita Shinji, and at this moment there was an exaggerated expression on his face. With a ferocious smile, she stared at Yu Gonglian.

"What are you talking about in your sleep! It's three years too early for me to drink." Ren Amamiya said with a smile, turning a blind eye to Tokita Shinji's scary expression. "Wine can't accompany you to drink, but you can fight with you. Want to come?"

Japan's prohibition on alcohol for minors is very strong, and it is a crime. Let alone drinking alcohol for minors, even selling alcohol to minors, if they are reported, they will be brought into the police.

"Cut! Why are you guys still underage for so many years!" Tokita Shinji said very disappointed. "Hey! Ah Shou, where's that? Take that out."

"Ah? That... who knows where it is... oh, it's here." Next to him was a golden-haired, equally strong guy named Juryu Jiro.After hearing Tokita Shinji's words, he took out a small bottle from somewhere and threw it to Tokita Shinji.

Tokita Shinji handed the small bottle to Amamiya Ren.

"Here, Amazake."

To add, alcohol is strictly prohibited for minors in Japan, except amazake.

As for what Ganjiu is, it can be understood as glutinous rice wine, which is lower than wine with the lowest alcohol content.

"You stinky alcoholics who don't treat wine as wine under 50°, why do you still carry amazake with you?" Amamiya Ren took the small bottle of wine in front of her eyes, dumbfounded.

"Hahahaha, if you don't do this, wouldn't it be impossible to fill you with this bottle?!" Tokita Shinji said with a hearty smile.

"I said, Amamiya, you have wine now, do you want to punch?" Juryu Jiro walked up and said.

"There's no need to punch. I'm quite busy when I come back this time. Let's keep it simple." Facing the approaching strong men, Amemiya Ren felt a little uncomfortable due to the oppression of her height and body shape, and retreated halfway with a calm smile. Stepping forward, leaning against the door, raising the wine bottle, he greeted them with a smile.

Although Yu Gonglian doesn't smoke and drink, it is different from cigarettes. Although he doesn't like to drink alcohol, it is necessary to know how to drink.

Even in Umiya Ren's own plans for the future, there is no such option as entertainment and receptions that require drinking to please others.But if one of his friends wants to drink to relieve his worries one day, he hopes to drink with him.

Drinking with friends when necessary is the only reason for him to learn to drink.

But that being said, things like drinking capacity will not follow time travel.In this country where alcohol prohibition is too strict, Ren Amamiya still drinks amazake. Although her body is strong, her adaptability to alcohol has not been honed.

Of course, the talk about drinking capacity is just an inference. After all, she only drinks amazake, and Amamiya Ren has never been drunk so far.

"Speaking of Yugong, don't you take it off?"

After drinking a bottle with this group of naked strong men, Tokita Shinji looked at him strangely and said.

"No punching, no wrist-wrestling, drinking low-alcohol alcohol, there is no intention of getting rid of it. For such a thing, it is better to rely on pleasure." Yu Gonglian followed the other party's logic and cleverly refused.

"Well! It's true." Tokita Shinji and Kotobuki Ryujiro thought about it for a while, and deeply agreed.

Having dealt with the bunch of naked men who became simple-minded after drinking, Ren Amamiya walked to the counter and pushed the tea in her hand over the table.

"Since Deng Zhifu is not here, please pass it on to me, Miss Nanahua, this is the tea that my father just brought today."

"Alian, you... have you come back?" Nanahua didn't take care of the tea leaves in front of her, and asked Amemiya Ren in surprise.

"It's only two days since I came back during the vacation. After all, there is only one school that accepts me now. I will return to Tokyo after the Golden Week." Ren Amamiya said with a smile.

"That's it! Then how are you doing now? That incident...you didn't have any influence over there, right?" Nana Kawate Furuto asked worriedly.

"There is a little bit of influence, but it's okay, I've made new friends, thank you Nana Hua for your concern." Amamiya Ren responded decently. "Since Dad's tea has been delivered, I'll go back first, please ask Sister Qiansha and me."

"Hey~ It's so rare to come back, you only think about Chisa-chan and Nanahua, but you forgot about me?" Just as he was talking, a woman with a very good figure, wearing only plain purple underwear, hugged her tightly. neck.

"Stop making trouble, sister Zi, didn't I drink a bottle with you just now?" Yu Gonglian struggled helplessly, but to no avail, she let her go.

"The drink with everyone can't satisfy my sister~" Azusa Hamaoka moved her face very close, and there was a strong smell of alcohol in her breath.

"I really have something to do today, please forgive me." Ren Amamiya smiled bitterly and looked at Furutegawa Nanahua. "Sister Nanahua, can you do me a favor and pull her away?"

"Well! Azusa still likes you so much!" Nanahua said gloatingly.

"I think Sister Zi should like any boy with good looks or good looks." Yu Gonglian replied without any hesitation.

"I'll let you go today." Nanahua coaxed Azusa Hamaoka aside while talking.

After Ren Amamiya thanked Nanahua as if she was rescued, she left with a bottle of amazake that the drunkards stuffed again.

After a while, Furategawa Nanahua's father and younger sisters - Furategawa Toshio and Furategawa Chisa also returned to GrandBlue.

"Father, Alian came here before and brought you a bag of tea." Nanahua said to her father.

"Eh? Is A-Lian back?" Qian Sha was taken aback when she heard this.

"You said you came back for two days during the holiday, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I suddenly thought of something and wanted to ask, it's not an important matter, let's talk about it when I have a chance." Furatekawa Chisa said lightly, and returned to her room.
