The days of being a cat in Japan

In order to welcome the guests who were about to come to the door, the Fujimoto family was really busy for a while. After everything was arranged, Grandma Fujimoto stood in front of the French window in the living room, leaning on the wall next to the window, looking forward to her daughter's arrival.

It didn't take long for Grandma Fujimoto, who had maintained good eyesight, to see the SUV of her daughter Etsuko in the moonlight.

Grandma Fujimoto straightened her clothes, sat in the living room and waited. Sure enough, the doorbell rang after a while.

The whole family was very curious about the boyfriend that Etsuko brought back, and when he opened the door to see, the little fat man said in surprise, "Why is it you, Mr. Ishikawa?"

The young man standing behind Etsuko outside the gate said with some embarrassment, "I'm really sorry that I came here without saying hello in advance. My name is Ishikawa Katsura, and I'm Kenta's physical education teacher."

"He's still my boyfriend now." This sentence was added by Etsuko.

Grandma Fujimoto didn't care about her grandson's teacher. For her, the most important thing in her daughter's life is now, and I'll talk about the rest later.

So she said in the room: "Guangyang, don't talk to guests at the entrance, invite them in first."

After hearing this, Mr. Fujimoto said: "I'm happy to be patronizing, Mr. Ishikawa, please come in."

Saying that, let Etsuko and Ishikawa into the room.

Ishikawa Katsura came in with big bags and small bags. He brought a gift to every member of the Fujimoto family when he visited this time. Even Xu Jie got a black and gray imitation mouse toy from him.

In the living room, the Fujimoto family and Ishikawa and Etsuko sat kneeling at the two ends of the long table. Grandma Fujimoto carefully looked at the young and handsome boy opposite, and nodded in satisfaction.

She sent a plate of tangerines not far away to Ishikawa and said kindly: "Young man, I am Etsuko's mother. I will ask you to call you Ogui today. I heard that you are our Jiantai's physical education teacher, this job is good, and there are not many things about stability, but I don't know how old you are this year, and who else is in the family?"

Ishikawa Katsura, who came to his girlfriend's house for the first time, seemed a little cautious, but when he heard Grandma Fujimoto's question, he straightened up and said: "I am 25 years old, and there are parents and an older brother at home. My older brother is The dentist is married and works with his sister-in-law in Kanto, my father is a doctor and my mother is a nurse, but they are both retired and currently live in Kanto.”

Grandma Fujimoto was clearly satisfied with this answer, as evidenced by the wider smile on her face.

In her perception, such a family can be regarded as a well-behaved family, and the children who come out should be well-educated.

However, from Ishikawa's answer, Grandma Fujimoto still picked out one thing that made her a little worried, so she said: "25 years old, 5 years younger than our Etsuko."

As soon as Fujimoto Etsuko heard her mother's tone, she knew what she was worried about, so she quickly said, "It's a 4-year-old mother, and I'm only 29 this year."

Regarding her daughter's interjection, Grandma Fujimoto gave her a hard look, and then continued to ask with a pleasant face: "Young man, how did you and our Etsuko know each other?"

Ishikawa Katsura lowered his head slightly but said yearningly: "I saw Etsuko-senpai for the first time on the field. At that time, she was holding the trophy and standing in the center of the field. She was so energetic that her whole body seemed to be glowing." , I remembered Etsuko-senpai at that time."

I've seen my daughter's fierce appearance, so I won't be afraid of being scared away in the future, which is really great.

Grandma Fujimoto, who was so satisfied, put a big checkmark on Ishikawa again in her heart.

Compared with her mother's problems, Dr. Fujimoto paid more attention to the things they got along with in the future, so this man, who has always been quiet, rarely asked: "The focus of Etsuko's life now is on Kyoto, and Since you are a teacher of a comprehensive middle school, the time in the future must be mainly in the county. Although our place is not too far from Kyoto, it is only a two-hour drive, but this distance still exists after all. Yes, what's your opinion?"

Ishikawa was stunned when he heard the words, and then he said: "The work of a physical education teacher is actually not cumbersome. I used to go to the gym opened by my friend to work as a part-time fitness coach on every rest day, but I probably won't do it in the future. , because I have to go to Kyoto every weekend, 2 hours is not a distance for me.”

Out of concern for her sister-in-law, the gentle Mrs. Fujimoto couldn't help asking a question at this time: "Mr. Ishikawa, if, I mean, if Etsuko is not willing to give up her career in the future, even after marriage, she still chooses If you work hard outside, she will probably not care about things at home, and she may even make you spend more time at home, do you mind this?"

Ishikawa Katsura was taken aback when he heard the words, and then his wheat-colored skin turned red.

He turned sideways and glanced at his girlfriend sitting next to him, and found that she had no intention of obstructing the question his sister-in-law had assumed.

So Ishikawa Katsura mustered up the courage to say: "If Etsuko is really with me in the future, I won't stop her from doing anything she wants to do. I have already bought a house in the county. Although it is still being renovated, it will definitely be ready by the end of the year." Check in. It doesn’t matter if Etsuko wants to live in Kyoto. Our school has a cooperative relationship with the Third High School Attached to Kyoto. I can ask you to transfer to work there. It doesn’t matter who does more things at home, and I am now too It feels good to live alone and do everything by myself, especially since it's my home with Etsuko."

It can be seen that Mrs. Fujimoto's statement made Ishikawa Gui very excited, and his body began to shake when he was kneeling on the ground.

Seeing this, Etsuko Fujimoto patted her boyfriend's thigh, signaling him to remain calm.

Ishikawa Katsura, who was hinted by his girlfriend, hurriedly began to restrain his emotions.

However, from the Fujimoto family's increasingly enthusiastic attitude towards Mr. Ishikawa, it can be seen that his words satisfied everyone in the Fujimoto family.

After seeing off Mr. Ishikawa that night, Grandma Fujimoto called her daughter in and had a long talk. The main idea was that this young man was very good, and she agreed with her daughter's vision this time.I hope that my daughter can continue to make persistent efforts and strive to win him down sooner.

Of course, this is very polite. Grandma Fujimoto said when her daughter went out: "This time, you chose it yourself. If it doesn't work again, hum."

When it comes to marriage, she doesn't feel like her own Etsuko, so she goes back to her room to rest helplessly.

Looking at the time, it was past ten o'clock. In the past, Jiantai and Junko had already fallen asleep at this time.

Today is a special situation, so they are allowed to go to bed late, but it will not work any later, so Mrs. Fujimoto is busy driving the two of them back to the room to rest.

Seeing this, Mo also wanted to leave, but Xu Jie was very reluctant to let it go, so he swept the tip of his tail under the black cat's neck and said, "You have come to me so many times, but you have never seen my black cat." Wo, or don't go back tonight, you can use half of my nest, okay?"

Mo's eyes sparkled after hearing this, but he didn't answer in a hurry, instead he sat there with his tail crossed.

Seeing that Mo didn't agree, Xu Jie became a little anxious. He put Mo on his head and walked to Jiantai's room, saying that he was inviting him to visit his nest.

In the main room of the house, the Fujimoto couple who had been busy all day were getting ready to rest. Mrs. Fujimoto who had just taken a shower said to her husband while drying her hair, "I think the boy Etsuko brought here this time looks pretty good." Not bad, I hope she can find her own happiness this time."

Hearing this, Mr. Fujimoto took the towel from his wife, and while wiping her hair, he said: "People in our Fujimoto family are very blessed in marriage. You can see from the fact that I can marry such a virtuous woman." I figured it out. I believe Etsuko's luck will not be worse than mine."

Mrs. Fujimoto thumped her husband shyly when she heard the words, but Mrs. Fujimoto still enjoyed his sweet words.

In another room, Jiantai, who had just changed into her pajamas and was talking to her sister, found that their family's Lihua had brought the big black cat into the room.

It seemed that the Great Sage wanted to keep the big black cat here today, and Jiantai, who felt a little stuffy in his heart, had to think about something that would make him happy.

So due to overweight, the little fat pier, whose sports performance has been hovering around the passing line, asked his sister seriously: "If Mr. Ishikawa becomes our uncle, will I no longer have to worry about myself?" sports performance?"

Fujimoto Junko glanced at her innocent younger brother, touched his big head and said, "Teacher Ishikawa is a person, if you fail in physical education, he should practice alone with you until your Until the grades are passed. So stop thinking about it, wash up and sleep quickly."

Feeling that her heart has turned into a blockage, Jiantai clutched her chest and silently climbed onto her crib.

In the guest room, Grandma Fujimoto is holding a photo album and slowly flipping through it. The characters in the photos have changed from young to old, from children to adults, and even the photos themselves have changed from black and white to color. of.

Grandma Fujimoto quietly stroked the middle-aged man in the photo with her fingers, and said softly: "Old man, time flies, and in a blink of an eye, our Etsuko also has a sweetheart. Originally, Guangyang was capable, and Etsuko was also up to date." , I'm not going to use the insurance money you left behind. But now the one in Etsuko's picture is a little younger than our daughter. What I like to say, our daughter can't let people say that. So if that young man can really become our son-in-law, I must buy the dowry for Etsuko when she gets married, and tell her to straighten up Back out."

As she said that, she touched the photo reluctantly, and then put away the album.

Mo at the cat's nest has agreed to stay overnight, and Xu Jie is happily covering him with a blanket in his mouth, completely forgetting that it's summer, and a furry cat doesn't need a blanket to keep it warm when it's resting s things.

Mo didn't say a word and let Xu Jie cover his body with the blanket. Even though he felt that his body was very hot from the warm thing, he still obediently lay there without moving.

Soon the lights in each room of Fujimoto's house began to go out one by one, and Mo lay on the side of Xu Jie's nest with his eyes closed and rested.

When everything was quiet and Xu Jie's sleeping little snorer beside him started to snort, Mo opened his eyes.

I saw it moving its body carefully, and sent its body into the cat's nest without waking Xu Jie up, while I was outside the cat's nest, near the door.

Although he knew that this was the residence of human beings and there would be no danger, Mo was still used to leaving the safest place to Xu Jie.

After arching his body a few times, Mo piled the blankets to the windows of the nest, so that the rising sun tomorrow morning would not disturb the sleep of his little raccoon.

After finishing everything, the satisfied big black cat lay beside his sweetheart and fell into a deep sleep.
