Be Dazai's mother

When Aji came back, Akutagawa-kun put down the hot tea after finishing his snacks, and said politely, "Thank you, madam."

I smiled and said, "You don't have to be so polite."

Then I looked at Xiaoyin at the side, and asked softly: "There are still a lot of snacks in the kitchen, you are welcome to eat whatever you want."

Xiaoyin blushed shyly, wiped the corners of her mouth stained with crumbs with a tissue, and said in a soft voice, "Thank you Ma'am."

It's really cute!

Being so cute by the girl, I held my face and screamed silently in my heart. I couldn't help standing up and wanting to go to the kitchen to get more snacks.

I don’t know if it’s because both of them were born in the slums, and sweets are very rare in the slums. Both Akutagawa-kun and Xiaoyin seem to like sweets very much. It's bright.

Just when I stood up, I suddenly heard the slight sound of the door being opened. After looking at the door, I saw Azhi in a black suit and holding the key to go home.

"Azhi, are you back?" I said to him, "Take off your shoes and wash your hands. I bought some snacks and came back to eat. I also bought the jelly you said was delicious last time."

"Ah." After saying that, I paused.

Most mothers probably have similar distress.That's right, that is, I really don't know what to feed the child, so that after the child says which food is delicious, he/she will start buying it in large quantities for him/her.

And now I'm in such a trouble - after Aji said that the jelly in that store is delicious, I just couldn't help but bought a lot of it back.

Anyway, buying so much is too exaggerated and eating too much jelly is not good for your health.

Actually, it's not the first or second time I've done this, it's been many times.Last time Aji ate the omelet rice I made and said it was delicious, I made omelet rice for a week in a row. Last time Aji ate the porridge I took home and said it was delicious, I also bought it for a week Come back with porridge.

Of course, it's the same this time.Because Azhi said that the jelly in that store was delicious, I couldn't help but bought a lot of it and wanted to give it to him.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help showing a somewhat embarrassed expression.After seeing my expression, Aji also realized something, and said helplessly, "If you bought too much, give it to Akutagawa-kun and Xiaoyin. Anyway, they also like sweets."

Akutagawa-kun and Xiaoyin, who tensed up after Aji walked in, didn't quite know what we were talking about, but after Azhi said that, they subconsciously said in unison: "Yes, I understand."

Facing the respectful attitude of the two, Aji didn't say anything, just nodded coldly, and then walked to the seat next to me and sat down - opposite to Akutagawa-kun and Xiaoyin.

Almost the moment Azhi sat down, both of them became like stones, not to mention their stiff bodies, they seemed to be holding their breath because of it.

Seeing the appearance of the two of them, my mood is a little delicate.But Aji, who was still thin and small and needed my careful care, became someone else's "senior" at this time, which also made me feel that time flies.

"Do you want to get along well?" I said a little worried.

Aji smiled and said, "Don't worry, Sachiko."

Having said that, when I came out of the kitchen with the snacks, the atmosphere on the table was even more rigid than before I left, as if even the air had been frozen.

I hesitated and thought: Could it be that Akutagawa brothers and sisters are not good at getting along with Aji, and at the same time Aji doesn't know how to get along with them?Especially Akutagawa-kun, he should be the type that Aji has a headache.

I don't think Aji will hate Akutagawa-kun, on the contrary, he should appreciate him quite a lot.Will it become the current stiff atmosphere? In addition to Aji's educational methods, Aji is not very good at getting along with Akutagawa-kun, right?

For some reason, I suddenly remembered the incident when Aji and Aji were swept into another world by the black mud a few years ago.If there is "Osamu Dazai" in that world, will there also be "Ryunosuke Akutagawa"?I don't know how the two of them get along in that world.

After walking for a while, I put the snacks I brought into the packaging bag and gave them to Akutagawa-kun and Xiaoyin, and said, "Here, Akutagawa-kun and Xiaoyin, you seem to like dim sum very much, so please accept it if you don't mind." Take these back and eat."

Akutagawa-kun frowned, while Xiaoyin waved his hands in a panic and said, "How is this possible?"

"You're welcome, the dim sum in this shop is really delicious, even Azhi is full of praise after eating it." I said with a smile.

Xiaoyin showed a hesitant expression, she seemed to really like the dim sum in this shop.

Azhi waved his hand and said, "Xingzi has said so, so you can accept it?"

Now that Aji has said so, Akutagawa-kun and Xiaoyin naturally have no reason not to accept.After the two accepted it, they chatted with me for a while, and Azhi drove him back not long after saying "go back to training soon".

After sending Akutagawa-kun and Xiaoyin off, I walked back to the living room and found that Aji was sitting on a chair, poking the jelly with his fingers in every possible way, looking not in a good mood.

I smiled helplessly and sat beside Azhi.

He has really grown up now, he used to be only up to my waist, but now he is a little taller than me.He was wearing a straight black suit, his body was still wrapped in bandages as before, and he calmly looked down at the brutally murdered jelly on the table.Although there is no expression on Azhi's face, for some reason I can feel that he is in a bad mood, even angry?

I asked, "Are you worried about Akutagawa-kun?"

Aji also complained to me before, although Akutagawa-kun is really strong and talented, but his character is too straightforward and he doesn’t know how to turn a corner. No matter what he faces, he likes to use simple and rude force to solve it. .

I don't understand why Aji is so strict with Akutagawa-kun.After all, they are in the world of the mafia, and the dangers they face every day will exceed ordinary people's imagination. If Aji doesn't strictly demand Akutagawa-kun, the other party will be more likely to encounter danger in the future, right?

"No." Azhi said coldly, "I'm not worrying."

Why do you feel like you're at odds?

I was silent for a while, and an extremely unlikely possibility suddenly appeared in my mind: "...Could it be that I'm too warm to them to make you unhappy?"

After I finished speaking, I was amused by myself, covered my mouth and laughed several times, and said, "Oh, I said such a strange thing hahahahaha."

Smiling and laughing, I suddenly stopped, because Aji's obviously hit and very unhappy expression was reflected in my eyes.

"..."

"..."

"..."

"Huh?" I said in a daze when I came back to my senses.

Shouldn't it?Aji has been very precocious since he was a child. Although he will gradually start to act like a baby to me later, it will not happen to him like a child who is a few years old because his mother is nice to others... Maybe?

Seeing Azhi turning his face away and not looking at me anymore, I thought uncertainly.

Perhaps to cover up something, Azhi took a deep breath and said in an unnatural tone: "I'm not upset, just a little uncomfortable."

"After all, Sachiko, you've been a little 'love miserably' since before, right? You have been unable to ignore unfortunate people since you have a very gentle heart." Aji's fingers almost smashed the jelly , he sighed, and said: "You may not be able to let go of children like Akutagawa-kun and Xiaoyin who are incredibly thin, born in a slum, and now have to struggle in the dark world with scars, or you may say that they One is the type that you can't help feeling affection for?"

He poked the poor jelly while supporting his face, and said, "I don't mean to complain, after all, it is because of your gentleness that we can become a family."

"..."

I was silent for a while, and then looked at the awkward Azhi with some dumbfounding.

Still say you're not upset?What happened to the jelly on the table?

I poked his forehead with my finger and said, "What are you talking about?"

Azhi, who was poked by me, covered his forehead and gave me a dissatisfied look.

And I said with a smile: "I will treat Akutagawa-kun and Xiaoyin well, essentially because you brought them back."

"But you obviously have an extraordinary affection for them." Azhi continued.

"Okay, I admit it." I raised my hands in surrender and said, "I do have an extraordinary fondness for people who are in misfortune." I paused, and suddenly the faces of those people in the past flashed through my mind, like It's Sayuri, Mei, Meihui, the tavern proprietress, her own mother, and so on.

"Probably because I have suffered misfortune myself, and I know what kind of pain it is. At the same time, I have also seen a lot of misfortune, and I know how powerless those people are in misfortune." I couldn't help but soften my voice, and said: "But Anyway, this kind of emotion is still different. My emotion towards others is more sympathetic, which is different from yours.”

"What's the difference?" Aji asked.

I laughed again, and grabbed his hand that was still on the jelly. His hand is now bigger than mine, but no matter how big he has grown, he is still the same in front of me. that little kid.

"You are unique, my most important child, and of course you are different from others in my heart."

"Don't be angry? Mom assures you, my child is only you." I said with a smile while holding his hand tightly.

"..." Azhi didn't speak, but I saw the corners of his mouth raised a little.

This stupid boy.

"Don't waste food, you have to eat the jelly." I glanced at the poor jelly, covered my mouth and said with a smile.

Azhi's rare awkwardness made me a little novel, and I even teased him at night: "Do you want me to tell you a bedtime story?"

Naturally, what responded to me was the sound of the back door being closed when Azhi plunged into his room.

I couldn't help but chuckle thinking about it the next day when I was working in the restaurant.

The child who thought he had grown up and was independent enough to not need me would get upset because my eyes stayed on other children... How could Ah Zhi be so cute?

I continued to chuckle as I thought about it.

"Sachiko!" Suddenly, Rena-san, who was working with me in the restaurant, called out to me.

"Hey!" I responded.

Ms. Rena came in from the counter, and said to me with a smile, "Mr. Sato is here again."

Mr. Sato is a frequent customer of this store, and he has a good relationship with the store manager and his wife. He is a gentle and gentleman gentleman, and he has a good relationship with the people in the store.I heard that I divorced my wife a few years ago, and now I am raising my daughter alone.

I smiled and said, "Mr. Sato is here again? He must be ordering omelet rice again? I'll go in and talk to the chef."

Miss Reina suddenly showed a dumbfounding expression. She stamped her feet and said, "Oh! Mr. Sato is here, Sachiko, please help him out."

Why did you ask me to greet Mr. Sato?

I thought blankly, but didn't ask any more questions, just said gently: "Okay, I see." Then I walked out.

When I went outside, I immediately saw Mr. Sato sitting on a soft chair flipping through the menu.He looked gentle and charming with his downcast eyes in a coat.

Seeing me walking past, Mr. Sato greeted me with a smile.

"Miss Sachiko." Sato-san's eyes were slightly wrinkled when he smiled, which made him look even more attractive.

"Good morning, Mr. Sato." I greeted him with the order book, and casually chatted with Mr. Sato: "Today is also very early."

Mr. Sato sighed helplessly, and said: "After all, I have been poisoned by the omelet rice in this store, and I feel uncomfortable if I don't come to eat a few bites every day."

I covered my mouth and laughed a few times, and said, "Then it's still the usual omelet rice?"

Mr. Sato nodded, and then said: "Miss Sachiko has to get up so early every day and come to work, it is really hard."

"I still have holidays, I don't come every day, and the store manager is not a black-hearted businessman, be careful if he finds out and hit you." I joked: "But not everyone can live a leisure life every day like Mr. Sato .”

"I'm not free at all, and I have to attend the company's meeting in the afternoon." Mr. Sato rubbed his temples with a headache, and said: "There is also Xiaoye who has to pick up school, oops, it is said that boys are noisy, and girls The child is quiet and quiet, but my Xiaoye is so noisy that even boys can't compare."

"This also means that Xiaoye is much healthier and happier than other children." I shook my head and said.

Mr. Sato also took his daughter Xiaoye to this restaurant to eat. As he said, she was a very noisy child. The husband can certainly afford to pay, but it is also very troublesome to pack things.

Surprisingly, Xiaoye seems to like me very much, and every time she sees me, she will sit obediently and look at me with those bright eyes full of joy.

When I was distracted, Mr. Sato looked at me quietly with a smile on his face.I noticed his gaze and said with some doubts: "What's wrong?"

Mr. Sato was silent for a while, and said, "Maybe it's a bit sudden to say that..."

"Huh?" I replied blankly.

"I was thinking." Mr. Sato said, "If you don't mind, would you like to try with me, Ms. Sachiko?"

try what?try?
