To the eternal you

The tea room is bright, with light-transmitting paper windows with a hazy texture, a teapot with three or four painted gray cups, and several novels on the table.

Qi sat down around the table with them, and the girl asked proactively, "Sister Yae, are these novels published by Yae Hall?"

The name "sister" is what Yae Miko wanted to add, saying that it is relatively close, and there is no sense of generation gap. In addition, he uses cunning lines to ask Qi if he hates her, so the follow-up will become Qi vs. Yae Gongji official title.

Considering that sister Yae helped her out, and she didn't dislike her, instead she felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, Qi quickly got used to it.

Although during this process, the jealousy in Ying's mother's eyes was about to burn out, but fortunately she was really persuaded.

As for the question of addressing Zhen Zhen, of course it is still proper to call her Auntie, although she insists that she can also be called Zhen Sister, after all, she and Ying Mama have done that.

There's nothing wrong with calling you really my sister, but maybe you'll be happier if you call me like this. After all, from the name of the big aunt, she looks old, doesn't she? !

Her appearance is that of a young girl!Of course, so is the mentality!

Right now, she is chatting with Ying, occasionally whispering something in her ear, every time after asking Ying's mother's face will turn very red, and the sight of her will become evasive, and she can't help but look at her again. Looking at it, especially the number of falls on the waist and legs has increased significantly.

Under such circumstances, what kind of unhealthy topic will arise next, the girl knows whether the pillow bought by the general is sure to be too shy to make people want to get under the bed, so she chooses to take the initiative.

"That's right, but strictly speaking it's actually a shortlist for a stage play."

Yae Miko rubbed the cover of the book lightly. The fine sand seems to be soft to the touch. It was taken from a creature called land eel. Land eel is a slender amphibian fish with a special habit of gaining heat on land in shallows and sandbars. .

Such creatures are widely distributed in Inazuma, and even regional varieties are quite good food materials. For example, the eel meat used in Kabayaki eel and eel ochazuke are all derived from it.

This can also be regarded as a specialty of Inazuma. Every other island has similar but different varieties, such as rattan eel and red fin eel. Scholars are also very impressed by this phenomenon. interest, but there is currently no theory that systematically explains all land eels.

"stage show?"

After thinking for a while, Qi asked curiously.

"Is it used for cultural performances later?"

"Hmm~ That's right, since we want to form an alliance, showing off our respective cultural characteristics and charms is a good way to strengthen the public's confidence."

The arc of the corners of Yae Miko's mouth became wider, making the girl inexplicably reminiscent of a fox in the afternoon sun, unexpectedly decent and...cute?

"I see. No wonder the general has been asking me about Liyue recently."

The girl obviously thought about it, but looking at her, Yae Miko couldn't help but teased.

"Speaking of which, do you want to guess? There are also themes from the film selection."

This made the image who hadn't spoken much all this time feel like being stepped on the tail, and couldn't help but coquettishly said: "Wait! I'm just, just helping to choose! Don't listen to what the Son of God says!"

"Hehe~ You see, she is anxious because her hobbies are going to be known."

The charming Yae Miko winked at the girl, and got very close to the girl, even breathing on the girl's neck. The fragrance of cherry blossoms that Miko had mixed with a strange scent of ointment made it even more impressive. Qi's brain was a little flustered.

Danger!Great danger!Miss Qi is being targeted by a bad woman again!

"Cough cough!" Ying started to cough pretendingly. Seeing this, Yae Kamiko also smiled coquettishly, and sat back in his seat swayingly. After all, Ying really pissed him off. I'm afraid after sending the girl back, She was about to suffer.

Why pursue and fight fiercely under the current good situation?If it was hundreds of years ago, maybe she still had that idea, but now it seems that the little guy has been bullied a lot. Through the gaps in the clothes, she saw the hickey on the girl's collarbone.

Was it the shadow or the general who did it?This is worse than what her little fox did.

She was really eating melons happily, and her smiling face made people feel like she didn't know what she was thinking, but everyone's eyes were still on Ying, and she was pretending to be reserved at the moment.

I probably thought in my heart that if Qi Qi saw the novels she had selected, and even started to read the contents, the dignity of being a mother and the dignity of a lover would definitely be swept away like dust in the future!

She didn't want to see Qi say to her with a pitiful and doting expression: "Is that why mom wants to stay with me? It's so cute."

That way, no matter what your identity is, you'll feel like you've lost!

For this reason, it was decided not to let the situation turn out like that, and Ying quietly gathered his strength to prepare for the girl's next question and answer.

"...So, what are the stories that Mom picked out for the stage play?"

Qi has developed some interests. If she can start with hobbies, she may be able to persuade Mother Ying to stand on the same front with her in the future.

In this way, there is no need to be one-sidedly persuaded by the general every time.

"These stories made me cry yesterday~ If I hadn't touched up her makeup this morning, her swollen eyes would have been exposed all at once."

He pointed at the corners of Ying's eyes jokingly, the crane red eye shadow was indeed heavier than usual.

"Huh—?! Is it so obvious...?!"

Lian Ying couldn't help touching her face and muttering softly.

"It's obvious that the general's body is very strong..."

"You can't relax taking care of your body because of this. Even if you are healthy and strong, if you don't cherish your body, it will be bad if you fall ill."

The girl looked at it carefully for a while, but the pure and concerned eyes made Ying even more hypocritical.

"Okay...okay...I will listen, and I won't stay up late to read it in the future."

"Then, do you want to talk about it?" Yae Kamiko propped her cheeks, her charming eyebrows and eyes were slightly sly, "After all, it would be a pity not to share the story I like so much."

Zhenzhen secretly laughed a few times, which made Ying a little embarrassed. She knew what it meant, because of her dull personality in the past, whenever she told a story like this, she would tell it quite boring, the most powerful one After the record was finished, everyone fell asleep.

"Do you really want to say it... Qi will also go to see it when the time comes. If you say it in advance, it might be a thunderbolt."

Shadow put it another way.

"No, if it's my mother's story, I will listen to it very seriously, and maybe I won't be able to go when the time comes."

Qi smiled reassuringly.

"Yes, yes, then..." Ying closed his eyes and cleared his throat, adjusted his voice, and said in a calm and soft tone.

"This is a story about self-seeking... There is a girl who lost her memory because of a shipwreck. Her relatives and friends are very concerned about her, and many people come to visit her..."

The girl listened very carefully, and perhaps it was the first time she saw a different side of Yingmama, and seeing this, everyone tacitly agreed not to disturb her.

"In the eyes of friends in the industry, she is excellent, friendly and kind to others, always actively helping everyone, just a smile can give people strength, and she can be called a perfect person."

"This made her, who had lost her memory, feel secretly happy, and then her sister, in the eyes of her sister, worked too hard, always rushing to various things every day."

"There are very few times when I get along well with my family, and even many things are hidden in my heart and I don't want to tell my family. She doesn't want such a sister to come back...she hopes to start from now..."

Ying stared straight into Qi's eyes, looking at himself reflected in those dark eyes.

"My sister can be more intimate with her family, and she can no longer be in such a hurry. She can share sad things with each other, and she can speak out when she needs help."

"In order to maintain her superficial perfection, she neglected her family... Just acting as the self in the impression of her friends, she felt very hard, and her smile was not liked by her family, so she restrained her attitude and got along with her younger sister Try to be as indifferent as possible, and don't take the initiative to talk to her, hoping to wait until I find my true self before apologizing to my sister."

In the story, apart from friends and family, girls also have their own lovers.

"The girl in the lover's eyes is a very persistent person. She strives with all her strength for her lover's dream, and finally loses her memory because of the shipwreck on the way to her dream. She doesn't want the girl to work so hard again, even if It doesn't matter if you can't finish it, what's really important...is always in each other's eyes, isn't it?"

Ying narrated with all her heart, and the girl gradually tasted the true meaning of her words.

"At the end of the story, who will the girl choose to be?"

she asked.

"Is it the perfect self in the eyes of friends, or the indifferent self in the eyes of my sister, or the self who is doing my best for my dreams in the eyes of lovers?"

"I don't know..." Ying's voice became low for a moment, "I haven't seen the ending yet...but I hope that the girl can become her in the eyes of her lover, at least her lover has understood the mistake, no matter what the dream It’s beautiful, but it’s not worth the people who really exist here.”

"That's right... the real self that exists here."

Qi's voice was a little confused, like a child who had been separated from his family unknowingly, standing alone at the crossroads.

"But what if the girl is just playing? Playing what others want to see."

"With her like that, what would her true self be..."
