Thirty Mulberry

Do it every morning! Saito said.

"It's a 'square dance'." Xiaochun corrected politely, "Everyone dance together, accompanied by the 'most dazzling national style' of our Qing Dynasty songstress group Phoenix Legend, the uniform movements are very spectacular. Not only can you relax your mind, but also Can keep fit."

"Yes, it's 'square dance', not martial arts. I misremembered, I'm really sorry." Saito nodded at Xiaochun.

He was a little courteous to Xiaochun, and Okita was very nervous: "Aren't you going to be on duty in the 'Yuyuan' team today? Why did you run out? What do you want to do?"

Saito glanced at him: "There are other teams on duty during the day. I want to catch some small fish and give them to Suisan."

"What?" Okita jumped up, "You want to go to the 'garden' with us?"

Xiaochun said: "Saito-kun really has a heart. Giving the fish he caught as a gift to the other party can better reflect his heart. Let's go together!"

Saito walked side by side with Xiaochun, and Okita "splitting" the two of them to get in between them, cursing bitterly: "Craft candy."

Saito mocked, "It sounds like you've eaten it before."

Okita snorted coldly: "Nougat is a kind of snack in the Qing Dynasty. It's sticky and sticky, and it gets longer and longer. It's like someone's face..."

Saito smiled: "To Miss Xiaochun, you are more like 'candy'!"

Seeing that they were about to fight again, Xiaochun pressed his fan against Okita's chest, while leaning towards his face, "hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm" lowered his voice, and signaled with his eyes that enough is enough.Taking this opportunity, Okita quickly kissed her approaching mouth.

"Thick skin." Xiao Chun hit him with a fan.

"Brother Okita, you have a nosebleed." Saito said.

Okita wiped his nose with his hand, looked at it, and there was a streak of blood on the back of his hand. "Why did you suddenly have a nosebleed?" Xiaochun impatiently wiped him with a handkerchief, "Don't look up, keep your head down, keep it down."

"Maybe the weather is too dry recently!" Okita said, "It's okay, it will be fine in a while."

"I heard that 'boy boy' is easy to get angry, and he can't control it after a little stimulation." Saito said.

"Do you want to fight? Brother Saito." Okita gritted his teeth and rolled up his sleeves.

Xiaochun hugged his waist, turned to Saito and said: "Saito-kun, don't talk about it. He is just childish." She guarded Okita, and she felt sorry for him.

Summer festivals are like Chinese temple fairs.Both sides of the street are crowded with stalls set up by hawkers, with two rows of long lanterns hanging above their heads.The crowds coming and going are dressed in colorful summer kimonos, the voices of chirping people, and the sound of clogs knocking on the ground are intertwined.Every octopus stall is full of people.

There are novelty gadgets everywhere.Xiaochun and Okita looked around, passing a stall selling wind chimes, Xiaochun used a round fan to guide the wind, and various wind chimes collided lightly, "Dingling, Dingling—" rang happily.Each chubby glass wind chime is hung with a paper stick, swinging in the wind.

"Buy it if you like it!" Okita said while touching the purse in his sleeve.

"Don't worry, let's have a look again." Xiaochun looked around and came to a stall selling masks.She took down a cat face mask, the cat's ears and whiskers were painted with black ink patterns, very sharp.

Put the mask on his face, "Meow, meow—" Xiaochun squinted like a cat, "Is it cute?"

"Cute, of course cute," Okita searched for compliments, "You look cute in anything you wear! So I bought it!"

"Look again!" Xiao Chun picked up another "Fox Face".It has a long round mask, red fox ears, three flame patterns on the forehead, and a red tassel on each side of the cheek.This is also an antique more than 100 years ago.Xiao Chun thought to herself.

"Boss, how much is this?" Xiaochun stroked the white shell of the mask, which was as thin as an eggshell.

The boss made a "two" gesture: "Twenty Wen."

Xiaochun laughed: "Boss, I want the mask, but in addition, I have to eat at your house for three days, and three meals a day can't be missed. It's not for big fish." After she finished speaking, she hung the mask back and turned around. gone.

"What's the matter? Just buy it if you like it!" Okita said after Xiaochun.

Xiaochun slapped the fan vigorously twice, and said, "It's a blackmail! It's faster for him to grab it."

Okita held her back and said, "Only once a year's 'garden tour', the more expensive it is, the more expensive it is, and it's not like buying it every day. Besides, once you miss something you like, you may not see it again."

Xiaochun threw away his hand, and hit him twice with a fan in anger: "Is it easy for you to make money? Is it easy? You fight and kill all day long, but you earn it with your life."

Okita's heart seemed to be blown by gusts of warm wind, he pulled Xiaochun into his arms: "So you love me so much."

"Hey, hey, this is on the street," Xiaochun patted him on the back, "Many people are watching!"

"I don't care, I just want it." Okita said.

Okita and Xiaochun have been together for more than a year, and the dream in the early stage of their relationship has long since faded, but there is still such romance from time to time.Okita likes to hug Xiaochun, likes to kiss her, no amount of physical intimacy is enough.The two of them are like mortise and tenon structure furniture. After years of peeling and decay, the paint and color have faded, but they are still as strong as ever.

"Where's Saito-kun? Xiaochun suddenly remembered, "Why is Saito-kun gone? "She looked around, and there was a sea of ​​people, like a garden, and everyone was like a bamboo pole covered with flowers and vines.

"He's not a child, how could he lose it!" Okita laughed and said, "It's best not to follow us."

"Miss Chun, come and eat fish balls!" Saito did not know when he stood beside the two of them, holding two greased paper boxes with two bamboo sticks inserted diagonally inside, "It is a pity if you miss the fish balls when you visit the garden." Woolen cloth!"

"Saito-kun, we are looking for you!" Xiaochun glanced at the oil-paper box in his hand, "Have you gone to buy fish balls? There are so many people, you must have queued for a long time! Thank you very much. "

Saito handed Okita an oil-paper box, and Okita took it and said, "This is more or less the same."

"Miss Chun, let's eat mine together!" Saito inserted a fish ball with a bamboo stick and carefully poked the small hole in the middle.

"Be careful! This kind of meatball is like tofu, it's cold on the outside and hot on the inside. When it's cold, it's hot when it's cold." Xiaochun fanned the fish balls with a fan, and then fanned the red ones.

"So I poked the hole in the middle to make the heat dissipate." Saito said, and then handed the stick with the fish balls to Xiaochun, "Miss Chun, it's not hot anymore."

Suddenly, Okita inserted a hand diagonally, grabbed the bamboo stick, put the fish ball into his mouth, pulled Xiao Chun's arm towards him, and fed her the fish ball mouth to mouth.Okita let go of Xiaochun, and pressed her flushed into his arms.Pedestrians who came and went looked this way one after another, and the girls covered their mouths, laughing "cheating".

"Oh, the fish balls that Saito-kun bought are really delicious." Okita gave Saito a sideways look, his face full of complacency.

"Brother Okita still protects food as he did when he was a child!" Saito responded to all changes without changing, "'Little Pig' Soujiro Okita."

"That seems to be Miss Takei!" Saito raised his chin forward.A person emerged from the crowd, Takei Kumiko's eyes were bright, shining with admiration, and she said to Okita: "Okita-kun, we are really destined, we also met in the crowd." Her face was red Nodding to Saito: "Saito-kun." Then he said to Xiaochun in Okita's arms: "Miss Xiaochun, you are really with Okita-kun! A fiancé like Okita-kun really needs to be carefully watched .”

Xiaochun raised her head from Okita's embrace, and said in a long voice, "My surname is Zhang." She pushed away Okita, looked into Saito's oil paper box, and changed into a gentle In a pleasant voice: "The fish balls Saito-kun bought are really delicious, please give me some more skewers!"

Okita grabbed Xiaochun's wrist, and hurriedly said to Kumiko, "Miss Takei, I'm very sorry, I'm sorry."

Xiaochun couldn't shake off Okita's hand, so he had to drag him forward.Kumiko just started, and met many young ladies along the way, who greeted Okita shyly.Xiaochun thought to herself, this is not to visit the garden, but to "inspect" rivals in love.

The "fishing stall" was surrounded by couples, and the girls screamed one after another, "Ah, it's dropped, it's dropped, it's broken, it's broken..."

Okita found a gap and pulled Xiaochun to squeeze in. Saito squatted beside Xiaochun.They took the dredge and the little china bowl from the boss.Groups of small goldfish gathered in the long wooden basin, swimming around with their mouths open.Xiaochun took a net to catch a small black fish with bulging eyes. Just as he touched it, the alert one jumped and escaped.The paper net was broken, and Xiaochun pouted in frustration: "Hey, it ran away, it's so smart."

"Does Miss Chun like black goldfish?" Saito said, "Then let me do it for you!" As soon as he finished speaking, he scooped up a small black fish and put it into Xiaochun's porcelain bowl.

"Oh my god, Saito-kun, you are so powerful." Xiaochun opened her eyes wide, "I didn't even see how you got it."

Saito said: "It's because of practicing swordsmanship! The speed and strength of the wrist are very demanding, and it will be developed over time." With quick eyesight and quick hands, he scooped up a small red and white fish for Xiaochun.

Okita turned Saito far away with an elbow. He stepped on Xiaochun's skirt and said with gusto, "Are you still angry? I didn't say much to Ms. Takei!"

Xiaochun's skirt was trampled and she couldn't stand up. She shook the fishing net towards Okita's face and watered his face: "Don't make me sound like you."

"I'll fish for you whichever one you like, and I'll fish as much as you want. If I don't fish enough, I'll buy it. Buy what you like, and buy as much as you want. Okay.
