After becoming a chaotic daughter

"Affected by the cold wave, Yokohama will usher in a sharp drop in temperature from next week, and the highest temperature is expected to drop below [-] degrees. The warm weather in Yokohama reminds citizens to keep warm when traveling. In autumn and winter, flu is easy. hair……"

The train rumbled on the track and passed the long sea-crossing bridge. The vast sea surface reflected sparkling waves in the sun. The dazzling sunlight and waves mixed together, shot in from the window of the train, and landed on the hand of the passengers.

Sitting on the seat, Nanako hugged her small bag, lowered her head to play with the little bear doll on the zipper, and listened to the radio program being played on the train without saying a word.Sitting beside her, crossing a pair of slender legs with Xie Ye, checked the shopping list in the memo on the phone again, then looked up at the site displayed above the car door.

"The next stop is the shopping mall, I'm about to get off the bus." She reminded Nanako.

Today is the weekend, Nanako changed out of Aigaku's green uniform and put on a warm and light autumn outfit, and was taken out by Yosano for shopping.Originally, Xie Ye and Xie Ye wanted to ask one or two male members to carry their bags with them, but early in the morning, the members of the club were very diligent and took all kinds of tasks that required going out, and they all ran away without a trace. When Yosano and Yosano came out of the infirmary, there was only Oda left in the office area who was dying and finishing his manuscript.

Although he said he wanted Oda to be a coolie, standing next to him was the editor-in-chief who had already come to the detective agency to urge the manuscript. Tian stared at him, and Xie Ye could only take Nanako out with great regret.

Hearing Yosano's reminder, Nanako raised her head, said "Oh", turned her head to look left and right, today is the weekend, although the car is not crowded, but the seats are almost full, Nanako sat in a On the far side of the row of seats, on the left is the baffle, and on the right is Yu Xie Ye who helped her block other strange passengers.

"What are you going to buy today?" Nanako scratched her head and asked Yosano.

"Purchase some bandages, and various winter skin care products." Yu Xie Ye answered her, leaning on the back of the chair leisurely, "Then go to the clothing store to buy you some new winter clothes, next month It’s Christmas, and after Christmas comes New Year’s and New Year’s, so it’s time to buy some new clothes.”

"I have winter clothes." Nanako said, trying to dispel Yosano's idea of ​​buying her new clothes. "Last year, I bought a lot of new clothes, some of which I haven't worn yet."

Yosano would take her out to buy new clothes every year when the seasons change. The closet in Nanako’s bedroom is already full of new clothes. It’s okay in summer, T-shirts and skirts can be bought cheaper, but winter clothes Just very expensive.

Moreover, changing clothes in winter is not as frequent as in summer, and Nanako herself is very lazy. She changes several sets of clothes back and forth throughout the winter, and wears whichever she gets up by the bed every day.Several of the new clothes bought last winter are still in the closet, and she has never worn them.

"Then buy it and wear it next year." Yu Xie Ye waved his hand indifferently, "I didn't buy clothes for wearing."

Nanako:?

Nanako felt that Yu Xieye might have accidentally reversed the words, but she didn't say it, but said to Yu Xieye: "Then buy it for Dad and Guoguoli."

"Don't worry about them." Yu Xie Ye said casually, "Since men can't think of buying clothes themselves, let them wear old clothes that have been washed until they turn white. Buying clothes for men is not for women Responsibility... Sigh, it's okay, at least Mr. Ranpo will remember it occasionally, remember to ask me to take you to buy clothes together."

Just in between a few words of conversation between them, the train arrived at the station.Accompanied by the sound of the announcement in the car, the door slowly opened, and Xie Ye got up, took Nanako's hand, and led her out of the car along the flow of people.

The shopping center and the station are connected. It's the weekend, and the pedestrians are bustling. The traffic in the station is very heavy. Nanako has to hold hands with Yosano so that she won't get separated from her.

Although Nanako felt that she didn't need to spend more money on winter clothes, Yosano still bought her a coat and two woolen skirts after shopping for an hour in the shopping mall, and bought some clothes for herself.

Carrying troublesome shopping bags, together with the two dozen bandages he bought, they were all stored in the luggage storage point at the station, and Yosano turned around and took Nanako into a drug store in the shopping center, and cleaned them up neatly After looking around the cosmeceuticals on the shelves, after checking out and going out, I found a nearby coffee shop to rest.

I ordered a cup of black tea for myself, and a cup of honey water for Nanako, and I picked through the bag with Yosano, then put several small bottles and cans on the table, and showed Nanako one by one.

"This is a skin cream for winter." Yosano pointed to the small and simple jar, and patiently said to Nanako, "It's the same as the children's skin cream you used before. You are in middle school now. I don’t use children’s face cream anymore, I use this in winter... If you feel pain on your face after using it, tell me to use another brand.”

"This is sunscreen, you should apply it when you go out in the sun."

"You are young now, you can use facial cleanser once in a week or two."

"Just like before, I wear lip balm every day in winter."

"..."

Like Yosano, Nanako explained the uses of these skin care products to Nanako. Nanako listened honestly. She is not a child, and she knows what these things are and how to use them, but she was not very good at them before. use.

In winter, I can only apply a bottle of 9.9 big ○ at most, and I rarely use facial cleanser, so I only use it when I think about it. Sunscreen is a bit expensive, and she only bought a small bottle when she was in military training in middle school.

All she wears in winter is children's face cream, which Xie Ye bought for her before. Not only herself, but also Luanbu and Gogol use her children's face cream every day. When winter comes, the three of them It's all the milky flavor of children's face cream.

Yosano opened the jar of simple-looking skin cream, dabbed a little with his fingertips, and applied it to the back of Nanako's hand.Nanako smelled it, and it was a bit more "high-end" than the children's face cream. It was not as milky as the children's face cream, and only had a little pleasant smell.

It feels a little bit like the fragrance on Yosano's body.

"I've grown up a bit, and the things I usually use can't be so 'children' anymore." Yosano put the cream on the lid and screwed it, and then put away the bottles and jars on the table, "When you grow up a bit, when you are in high school, if you want to learn makeup, I will teach you makeup at that time."

Nanako was still smelling the delicious scent on the back of her hand, when she heard what she said to Yosano, she gave an obedient "Oh".

She doesn't know how to make up. When she died before, she was just in the second year of high school. Students are not allowed to make up in school. Even if they secretly put on lipstick, they will be arrested. Nanako herself doesn't care about her dress. What is the difference between foundation and loose powder? I don't know, and I can't tell the lipstick numbers that seem to be similar.

The waiter in the store delivered the black tea and honey water they ordered.Holding the glass, Nanako took a sip of the honey water with a straw in her mouth. The warm and sweet liquid flowed into her stomach, making people feel comfortable and relaxed.

Yosano and Yosano added a cube of sugar to the black tea, picked up the teacup and took a sip with his head down. When he raised his head, he saw Nanako who was sitting across from her with a serious face, with a serious expression as if she was doing an experiment, Put your head down and play with the lemon slices at the bottom of the cup with a straw.

She stared at Nanako's small face, that expressionless face looked stiff and serious, but with obvious childishness, obviously she was still a child.

After watching for a while without saying a word, Yu Xie Ye suddenly asked:

"Does Nanako want 'Mom'?"

"Well?"

Nana raised her expressionless face, and Nanako looked at Yosano without turning her black eyes.

"Just like Ranpo-san is the 'father', does Nanako want to have a 'mother'?" Yosano said in a calm tone, "Even when Ranpo-san is not around, there is still a 'mother' who will accompany you .If there is a 'mother', Nanako can go shopping with the 'mother', just like now. There are some things that you can't ask Mr. Ranpo for help, but you can also talk to the 'mother'."

Nanako didn't know why Yosano suddenly mentioned this.She doesn't have a "mother", she has lost it a long time ago, and she has long been used to this kind of life without a "mother".Whether there is a "mother" or not doesn't seem to be very important to Nanako, at least Nanako herself doesn't care at all.She also doesn't have a "mother" now, and she lives her life step by step.

So Nanako answered Yosano honestly: "I don't know... I haven't thought about it."

"If there is a 'mother', would you feel disgusted?" Yosano put down the teacup in his hand, "Or you feel unhappy, and don't want someone else to be your 'mother'."

Nanako thought about it, but she didn't think so.

The main reason is probably because she can't imagine what it would be like to have a mother.My mind is so empty that I can't think of such a scene after eating the leftover bag of potato chips. Of course, I can't say whether I like it or hate it.

She hesitated for a while, then shook her head at Xie Ye.

"Without a mother, I don't know." Nanako scratched her cheek, bit the straw, and said vaguely, "I don't know what it's like to have a mother."

Yu Xieye's expression froze slightly, she was stunned for a moment, but she quickly came to her senses and understood the logic between Nanako's two sentences.But Yosano didn't speak, just stretched out his hand and touched Nanako's head.

She didn't want to ask Nanako what she thought about "if there was another mother to take care of her".

Nanako's dark round eyes blinked, she looked at Yosano intently, still wondering why Yosano asked her such a strange question.

Do you want to have a "mother".

If there is a "mother", would you find it annoying?

Nanako "read and understood" what Xie Ye had just said to her in her head several times, and there were only a few short sentences.

Associating a bunch of messy words together, Nanako felt that she understood the "unspoken meaning" that Yosano did not explain.

"Sister Akiko." Nanako called out in a calm tone, sipping honey water.

"What?" Yosano Akiko was still thinking "Isn't it better for Nanako to have a mother?" when she heard Nanako call her, she subconsciously raised her eyes and looked at Nanako again.

"Do you want to be my godmother?"

Nanako asked her.

And Xie Ye: "...?"

Nanako: "●.●?"
