[Gintama] The first tenderness

Teacher Songyang took everyone to an autumn outing.Eighteen radish heads lined up in a row, followed the teacher in twos and threes, and went for an outing in the mountain they were all familiar with.

There is no way, there are too many radish heads, and there is only one teacher, no matter how capable you are, you can't take it too far.

But no one cares about that.It was the first time for everyone to go out with so many people of the same age, and even their own paddy field looked fresh and interesting, let alone a whole green hill.Everyone was as excited as a fledgling just out of the nest, and even a sparrow flew by could cause them to marvel.

Hatsuha and the three boys from the private school walked together, and gradually it became Takasugi and Gintoki who walked in front, and she and Gui walked behind.The same is true when entering the mountains.

They paid homage to Ksitigarbha at the entrance and put a few rice balls as tribute.Yinshi muttered that these tributes were eaten by small animals in the mountains in the end, why waste them?Might as well let him eat it.

"Hey... Yinshi, you don't really intend to eat the tribute, do you?" Gao Shan stared at him suspiciously.

Yinshi yawned, and said lazily: "If sugar is added, Ah Yin, I'll go get it and eat it now. In the future. When Ah Yin is so hungry that he can't eat, he might as well eat other people's food." Tribute."

"You'd better just starve to death." Gao Shan sneered, turned his head to seek Gui's support, but saw him and Hatsue Ye crouching next to Jizo to study something.

Yinshi pointed at them, full of ambition: "Look at Ai Shan, someone is already one step ahead of me, Ah Yin!"

Hang a crossroads on Gaoshan's head, take a deep breath, and move Qi to Dantian.

"Wig! What are you doing sneaking around with Sakurai!"

As soon as the words fell, Gao Shan felt that something was wrong.Looking left and right, it really attracted the eyes of all the fellow students, including Teacher Songyang.He stood stiffly in place, at this moment he wished so much that he had Yinshi's ability to make jokes, so that he could easily turn the situation around.

The two parties were unaware of the subtle psychology of the young man Gaoshan, and they didn't feel embarrassed at all.Teacher Songyang came over and asked them what they were doing, and they stood up happily.

"San Tian said that the rice balls will attract small animals, so I just want to see if there are any little squirrels or hares." It was the first time for Chu Ye to participate in a group activity, and she was so excited that she forgot to maintain her usual restraint, her eyes sparkled, and she looked up. His little face was also flushed, and two small balls of baby fat swelled up when he smiled.

Gui was dizzy from this wave of cheek ball attacks, and he was several seconds late to answer Teacher Songyang, but he didn't know what he was talking about.

Teacher Songyang listened to them with a smile, patted their heads lovingly, and told them to keep up with the team.

Today their goal is the maple forest on the mountain.There is a relatively flat place there, as well as small waterfalls and mountain streams. It is just right to have lunch there, and you can pick up some leaves and go back to make bookmarks.

Chu Ye has always been exercising and has good physical strength. There is not much difference in physical fitness between twelve and thirteen-year-old boys and girls, so she is not slower than others at all.However, if you want to be like Gintoki, you still have extra energy to quarrel with Takasugi, joke with other classmates, go to Mrs. Songyang to help a little, or see something interesting. Take a couple of steps to see what's going on...she's going to die.

"Gintoki's energy is really good, he doesn't seem to be dozing off in class at all." Hatsuha was surprised and envious, "Gao Sugi also helped Mr. Songyang pick flowers—Gaoshan really likes Mr. Songyang. "

She turned to look at Gui, her amber eyes were still so bright.

"Gui, why don't you go with them? You have such a good relationship." She smacked a small smile, "I can keep up with everyone's speed. Gui, go and play with your friends."

Gui never knew that his name could be called so nicely.He was almost stupid, and wanted to say "it's not Gui, it's the wig"—luckily he didn't say it, otherwise Ah Chu would think he was stupid.

He straightened his back even more and straightened his expression. "For those who achieve great things, the most important thing is to be calm." He looked upright and spoke deeply, "For a samurai, going out is also a practice, and he must resist all temptations to play and concentrate on the road under his feet..."

"Wig, what nonsense are you talking about?" Gintoki came out of nowhere, strangled the black-haired boy's neck, and waved to Chu Ye again, "Hey Chu Ye-chan, don't be fooled by the wig guy's nonsense The language is scary. We normal people can't care about the brains from the meatball planet."

"No...it's not a wig, it's Gui!" Gui tried hard to break Yinshi's arm, "Yinshi, when did you get so familiar with Ah Chu that you could be called 'Chuye Jiang'?"

"Ah, ah, what you want to ask is when we started calling each other by name, right? Wig you also have such inaccurate words." Gintoki mercilessly exposed, with a smirk vigorously Patting Gui on the shoulder, "If you are willing to serve Uncle Yinshi all the refreshments for the next week, how about Uncle Yinshi reluctantly telling you?"

"It happened two days ago. Because Teacher Songyang said, you can try to get closer to your classmates."

The two boys looked at her together.

Chu Ye put her hands behind her back, trying her best not to blush too much.She changed the subject: "Where is... Takasugi?"

"Short cedar, you're going to be Teacher Songyang's little tail in front." Yin Shi pouted at the front, showing disdain, "What kind of flowers, maple leaves, hazelnuts, like a little squirrel, keep offering treasures to the teacher... Ouch, what?"

A ball of bright green thorns tumbled from his silvery curly head and fell to the ground.Gui picked it up and looked at it, while Chuye was busy asking Yinshi if he was injured.

"It's okay." Yin Shi rubbed his head, and leaned over to look at the green thorn ball, "What is this?"

"This is a chestnut... ah, there is a chestnut tree over there." Gui looked up, and quickly pulled Chu Ye a few steps away, "Don't look at it, Ah Chu, the thorns of chestnuts are very sharp, and it is easy to hurt people when they fall down."

Yinshi rubbed his head and looked at him in disbelief: "Hey, wig, what about me? Ayin, me? I was hit by a chestnut just now, and the one who survived was obviously Ayin, right? This is Seeing sex and forgetting righteousness, is this really a living seeing sex and forgetting righteousness?"

Gui looked at him intently and shook his head slowly. "No, Yinshi, you'll be fine." Pointing at Yinshi's curly hair, he said seriously, "Curly hair is the existence that can bounce chestnuts up, just like meatballs."

"What kind of misunderstanding do you guys have about curly hair and meatballs!!"

Yinshi jumped and chased after him, and Gui took the road and fled.They rushed from the end of the line to Teacher Songyang and Gao Shan at the head of the line, and then ran back to the end of the line under the teacher's smiling eyes and Gao Shan's contemptuous eyes.But by this time, everyone had already arrived at their destination, and it was time for lunch.

In the mountains in September, the red leaves are not fully dyed, only mixed with the green and yellow leaves, and the colors are reflected in the blue sky.Chu Ye was tiptoeing to pick a red leaf from a branch, but it was still a little short.When Gui came over, he handed him the kettle.

"Eh? Thank you Chu, but I have..."

"Didn't you just say you finished drinking?" Chu Ye tilted his head, "I still have half of mine left. Just help me fetch water later."

Gui nodded in bewilderment, raised the kettle, and carefully poured some into his mouth.Just after exercising, there is cool water to moisten the throat, which is really pleasant.Turning his head, Gui saw Yinshi kept fanning the air with his hands.

"Silver, what are you doing?"

"Isn't it obvious, of course it's the sour smell of love." Yinshi drooped his dead fish eyes, "Ayin, I'm about to be smoked to death. Damn, Ah Yin is also very thirsty, and it seems that someone handed it to Ah Yin. Kettle, say honey, are you thirsty? Open your mouth and I will feed you~"

Chu Ye and Gui's faces instantly turned red and smoldering.

"W-How could you say that?" Chu Ye stammered, stammeringly retorted, "If Yin Shi is thirsty, you can drink it too."

"Heh——Ah Yin, I don't want to join in the fun... Woohoo!"

A fist landed on the silver curly head.The next moment, the silver curly hair became the silver curly hair growing from the ground.

Gui silently stared at Yinshi who had been pounded into the ground, then silently raised his head to see Teacher Songyang's gentle and elegant smile as always, silently swallowed his saliva, and showed a stiff smile.

"Hello, Teacher Songyang." Chu Ye said obediently.

Teacher Songyang nodded to them, and lightly took out Yinshi. "Yinshi, don't bully your classmates." He said nonchalantly, "Next time, I will plant you under the cherry blossom tree in the courtyard of the private school."

"Why is it a cherry blossom tree?" Chu Ye thought for a while, and suddenly realized, "Oh, is it because of that legend? The reason why the cherry blossoms are so red is because a dead person was buried under the tree?"

As soon as these words came out, Yinshi immediately shivered in Lingling, and begged for mercy with a bitter face: "Mr. Songyang, I was wrong... Ah Yin, don't stay with the ghost!!"

Teacher Songyang's exclusive little tail - Gao Shan - expressed disdain for this: "It's really timid."

"You're so bold, you go!!"

Smiling and watching them bicker for a few words, Teacher Songyang put Yinshi down and rubbed his curly head again.

"Just now everyone decided to have a fish-catching competition. Gintoki, Kotaro, and Hatsuba, you all should come too." Teacher Songyang waved his hand, motioning for a few people to come to his side, "By the way, we can hold a fish-grilling competition."

Barbecue - this must be one of the most irresistible things for children this age.Everyone gave a "wow", and immediately put the matter behind them, surrounded the teacher excitedly and began to chatter.

After walking a few steps, Gui suddenly remembered something, and quietly asked Chu Ye: "Ah Chu, can you grill fish?"

Chu Ye recalled it seriously, and said uncertainly: "I know how to roast corn and potatoes. If it's a well-killed fish, it should be similar to roasting... right?"

"It doesn't matter." The boy Gui said solemnly, "I know how to grill fish, so just give me the share from Ah Chu."

"I want to learn too..."

Hatsuba looked away embarrassedly.

Yinshi whispered to Takasugi with emotion, saying "Oh, I didn't expect that the wig would be the first to marry. I'm so relieved to be Kasan, and you should work hard, Aosugi."

The little boy Takasugi was very unhappy, but because he was in front of the teacher, he could only twist his face and squeeze out a smile.

—Silver hour!Go back and wait!

Yin Shi turned his eyes provocatively: come, come, who is afraid of you!Look at Ah Yin, I will teach you how to be a man with a wooden knife!

The world is full of petty quarrels and laughter of little radishheads, almost shaking the color of the forest off.The teacher at the Matsushita Private School only smiles all the time, and the green eyes full of smiles are gentler and clearer than the sky.

When they returned to the village in the evening, Teacher Songyang sent the radish heads home one by one.When he finally returned to the private school, he suddenly asked a few children: "Did you have a good day today?"

The children nodded like pounding garlic.

"Teacher." Chu Ye asked, "Is Mr. Songyang happy today?"

The long-haired man in kimono held a bouquet of half-wilted wild flowers and nodded with a smile.

"You are all happy, and the teacher is also very happy."

That night, everyone curled up in their respective quilts, having an exceptionally peaceful and beautiful dream.
