[Black Basket] Winter Cherry Blossoms

After the elementary school festival, the final exams also came. The competition between Akashi and Naoki never stopped. On the day when the results were announced, the first graders were all impressed by the pair of powerful cousins, regardless of their appearance, mind, and physical fitness. They are all ranked at the top of the grade. Although Naoki's grades are very good, under Akashi's light, his grades can only be ranked second. The competition between the two did not come to an end until the summer vacation officially started.

"Miss Hashimoto, see you in Tokyo during the summer vacation."

This is the last day at school, Naoki provoked Akashi, but unfortunately the opposite effect appeared, Akashi didn't get angry and didn't say anything, but also made a big change in Saya's summer vacation. Originally, she went to Tokyo to participate in the national gymnastics competition. Summer vacation She will stay at the second uncle's house and help out at the family branch in Tokyo. As a result, the night before her departure, her grandparents said to her seriously——

"You're going to spend this summer vacation at Akashi's house, so go on."

Why?Saya's heart was instantly filled with doubts. It was strange enough to live in the second house of the Akashi family when he was in Kyoto. Why did he even live in the Akashi family during the summer vacation, and he was also the head of the Akashi family?

"Saya, you have to remember that all places other than Hashimoto's are battlefields, you can't disgrace the Hashimoto's in front of outsiders, if someone wants to provoke you, let them see, Hashimoto's snake beauty is also very poisonous. "It's rare to put on a cold patriarch in front of his granddaughter, and Hashimoto Takashi also scolded Saya with a straight face.

"The Akashi family is different from our Hashimoto family. There is a bottomless abyss, and many unexpected things will happen. If you encounter a rival in love during the period, remember the method I taught you, and kill the opponent without hesitation. "Madam Qiandai smiled and scratched her neck with her hand, signaling that Sha Yi must not keep her hand.

Facing the admonition of the two elders in the family, Saya was shivering from the cold. She only went to Tokyo for a month, but it felt like she was going to fight in groups. The pressure was so huge, how could she survive her summer vacation?

The answer is, of course, yes and no. Sitting on the Shinkansen train to Tokyo, Saya jumped off the train more than once*, remembering the list of rules that her grandmother made before departure, she suffered from insomnia that night, and the next day she was on the Shinkansen. I barely fell asleep on the train.

Compared with Saya's nervousness, Akashi is as comfortable as usual. He didn't like to go back to that oppressive mansion before, but now with Saya by his side, he won't feel lonely when he goes back. Even his strict father is also right. She praised her so much, it can be seen that the most important hurdle has been resolved, leaving only the troublesome relatives of the Akashi family and the troublemakers in the alliance.

"Saya, wake up, go to sleep after lunch, or I will eat up all the mackerel." Akashi pinched Saya's cheek lightly, waking her up from her sleep.

"Sorry... Seijuro, are your shoulders sore?" Realizing that he had slept too deeply, Saya left Akashi's shoulders and patted his face with his hands, trying to wake himself up completely.

"My shoulder is fine, but you forgot what you said before getting on the train, who said you want to experience the ekiben with me?" For Akashi, eating bento on the Shinkansen was the first time, and he had never done this before. Because the speed of the Shinkansen is very fast, you can reach your destination after taking a nap, and there is no need to eat in the car.

This time I will have this idea, it is entirely Saya's suggestion, I heard that Hashimoto's hobbies after retirement are to travel around Japan by train, eat all the delicacies along the way, and wrote a book related to food, as the granddaughter's Saya also liked this kind of fun, and dragged him into the water by the way, and he also found it interesting after hearing it. Anyway, he was happy to experience it with someone else.

"Seijuro, you like Kyoto's home-cooked food very much." One of the ekibento bought by the two at the Kyoto train station is Kyoto simple cuisine. The correct term is the home-cooked dish that Kyoto people usually eat. It consists of 15 kinds of ingredients The taste is light and healthy, and it is very popular among travelers. The other is mackerel bento, which is a taste that both of them like. With lunch time, they will not be bored during the two-hour journey.

"Personally, I prefer what you cook yourself, and I will trouble you to cook when I get to my house." After eating the mackerel that Saya brought to her mouth, Akashi also picked up the pickles and fed them into her mouth.

"No, I can't be presumptuous with elders around, I'll be very rude." Thinking of the list of rules, Saya started to have a headache again. In order not to lose face of the Hashimoto family, she must be cautious in her words and deeds.

"My house is not a dragon's lake and a tiger's den, it's just relatively deserted." Saya's worry was as early as Akashi's expectation, and it was indeed as she imagined. The big family has many rules, and the Akashi's family is no exception. Except for the family gathering every year, it will be more lively. The big house with only father and son is really deserted.

"Then did you feel lonely before?"

Unexpectedly, Saya would ask this question, Akashi shook his head, "I'm used to those days, now with you by my side, I will never feel lonely again."

"Ah, my shrimp meat."

"Didn't you eat my fried tofu?"

One of the joys of the two having a common taste is that they can grab food when they eat. Either Akashi eats Saya’s favorite shrimp, or Saya empties his favorite tofu dishes. You come and go, you take one bite, two The bento is all eaten and nothing is wasted.

"Confused, I got some rice." Akashi moved his head to eat the rice left on her lips. He likes her. In front of elders and outsiders, she always behaved generously and behaved dignifiedly Elegant, but her little confusion is only shown in front of him, and only he can see her truest side.

"No, it will be seen by other people..." Saya blushed and looked around. Fortunately, there were empty seats around them and no one saw it.

"Don't seduce me if you are afraid of being seen. The closer to the agreed date, the worse my endurance will be." Akashi currently puts the national competition first. He may not have much time to get along with Saya in Tokyo, so he is very happy. Cherish the current two-person world, and hope that the two hours can be extended, he wants to spend more time with her.

After lunch, Akashi and Saya chatted about their past, and in a certain seat not far away, Masao Nakamura was secretly observing everything in front of him, feeling relieved that the relationship between the two was developing smoothly, so the young master's father should rest assured Alright.

*****

The Akashi family's mansion is located in a busy and quiet place in Tokyo. It has been a high-end residential area since the Edo period. In the noisy Tokyo, it is a place suitable for long-term residence. Find a rare peace.

Not long after Akashi and Saya arrived in Tokyo, there was already a car waiting outside the train station, and they were taken to the location of the Akashi family mansion.On the way, the bustling scenery of Tokyo came into view again. Saya couldn't help but think that she spent three years in this bustling city in middle school. The irony is that she never looked at this city seriously. She spent all three years in the family During training and gymnastics activities, she did not realize the happy life that ordinary girls should have. When she returns to Tokyo this time, she must find an opportunity to go out for a walk.

"Master, Ms. Hashimoto, we have arrived." Time passed quickly, and the car had arrived at the quiet residential area. After another 5 minutes' drive, the car drove right into a wide and unoccupied driveway, and finally arrived at a road with traffic lights. He stopped in front of the mansion guarded by private guards.

An old man with white hair and wearing a black suit had come to the car, opened the door carefully, and said respectfully to Akashi in the car: "Welcome back, Master Zheng."

"Thank you, Grandpa Moshi." After getting out of the car, Akashi held out his hand to Saya, "This is Ms. Hashimoto, I think father should have told you her true identity."

"It's the first time I've met you. I'm Saya Hashimoto. Please give me your advice." Saya greeted the old man politely after getting off the car.

"Miss Hashimoto, you are welcome. The owner of the house told you to treat this place as your own home. I am Shigeru Nakamura, the head deacon of the Akashi family. If you have any questions during your stay, miss, feel free to ask me."

"Saya, you can just call him Grandpa Moshi, it's more kind." Akashi held Saya's hand to ease her uneasiness, and then he continued to ask Nakamura Shigeru, "Where's father? Is he still in the company?"

"No, the Patriarch is chatting with your uncle, and they are waiting for you in the living room."

"Eldest Uncle is here too?" It's very rare for Father to be at home, and it was purely accidental that even Eldest Uncle came to join in the fun, and Akashi suddenly had an ominous premonition that Eldest Uncle would appear in the house, which meant that another troublesome person would also come. come here.

"Yes, please go in immediately, young master, and don't let the two elders wait."

A group of people followed the old housekeeper towards the main house. They walked through the beautiful European-style garden and came to the door of the main house. Suddenly, the door of the main house was opened, and a beautiful woman with long wavy hair ran from inside. She came out and embraced Akashi passionately, kissing and refusing to let go. This scene made everyone dumbfounded, especially Saya. She was completely stunned by the beauty's excessive enthusiasm, and she didn't know how to react for a while. .

"Dear Seijuro, I miss you so much, I've been abroad for so long, do you miss me?"

"Cousin, please don't create misunderstandings in front of Saya, I will be very troubled." Akashi stared coldly at the beauty in front of him, and kept a distance from her, lest his face be poisoned by lipstick again.

"Saya?" The beauty immediately shifted her gaze when she heard the name, she walked up to Saya, her beautiful rose-colored eyes looked at Saya's whole body, and after a while, a satisfied smile appeared on her face.

"It's pretty good, Seijuro. Compared to the dozens of candidates on the fiancée list, this one is even better. You have a pretty face, hot measurements, and a good brain from the Hashimoto family. Your vision is really poisonous."

"Excuse me...what do dozens of candidates mean?" Sha Ye knew that it was not good to interrupt the conversation between her cousins, but she still felt uncomfortable when she heard the words of that beautiful cousin.

"Well, it's the fiancée my uncle arranged for Seijuro... Uh, no, now you're the only one left. Welcome to Akashi's house, Ms. Saya, I'm Seijuro's cousin Akashi Reina, very happy I know you." Receiving the murderous gaze from her cousin, Lina quickly changed her words with a smile and swallowed the joke back.
