My daily life in a tavern

"If I have a chance to come over next time, I can still make butter cookies for you, but you can't steal whipped cream anymore." Uesugi Hideichi made a small joke.

Although Shinnosuke stole the whipped cream, it caused him some trouble.

But in the end, it was self-defeating, and it actually improved my dessert level by a small level.

The result is still very satisfactory.

When Shinnosuke heard his words, he immediately looked delighted.

He scratched his head and said with some embarrassment.

"It's okay, big brother, you don't have to thank me."

When Guangzhi heard this, he immediately roared angrily.

"People are not praising you!"

"Hey." Xiaoxin still looked happy, not looking like he was being scolded at all.

Meiya looked at her husband and son with some disgust.

She then pulled the two of them, thanked Shan Shanxiu first, then turned and left the tavern.

"It's so good~"

Uesugi Hideichi looked at the figures of the three members of the Nohara family fading away under the street lights, with a little envy in his eyes.

In his memory, it seems that there has never been a memory about his family.

In my previous life, I grew up in an orphanage.

Although my current body didn't grow up in an orphanage, it has been taken turns to live in the homes of relatives who are not close to me since I was a child.

After the age of 16, he dropped out of school to run a tavern.

So deep in Uesugi Shuichi's heart, he longs for family affection very much.

He also wanted to live in a family similar to Nohara since he was a child, noisy every day, but warm and peaceful.

No matter what happens to the family, they will face it side by side, and finally hold hands, overcome all difficulties, and reach the other shore of happiness.

but.

Uesugi Shuichi knew very well in his heart that this was impossible.

He has never met his parents, let alone have a happy family.

"Wow~"

Just when Uesugi Shuichi's face was a little downcast, Nezuko, who was wearing a maid outfit, suddenly came to her side.

Her pink pupils were like jewels, and she looked at Xiuyi with calm eyes.

There is a touch of warmth in his eyes.

"Thank you, Nezuko."

Feeling the gaze of the girl in front of him, Uesugi Shuichi's body and mind, which was a bit cold, suddenly felt warm.

There was a warm smile on his handsome face.

It seems that I am not a complete loner, at least in this tavern, there are still friends.

At this moment.

Wearing a white dress, the innocent and lovely face came to the two of them unknowingly.

She turned sideways and looked at Uesugi Shuichi's face very intently.

Suddenly asked.

"Xiuyi, are you crying?"

"what?"

When Uesugi Hideo heard the sudden voice, he was taken aback for a moment, and then he came back to his senses.

He reached out to wipe the corners of his eyes and found that there was a little moisture there.

really cry?

Just when Xiuyi thought so, dense raindrops fell from the distant and dim sky.

He put on a smile on his face and said.

"I'm not crying, it's raining."*

Chapter 54 Tanjiro Returns! (Seek collection, ask monthly pass!)

08:30 in the evening.

The lights of thousands of houses gradually lit up, putting on a mysterious and charming new dress for the bustling city of Tokyo.

On the street where the Wangyou Museum is located, there are bustling voices from various custom shops and izakayas.

Business is at its peak.

After all, Tokyo is a city with a very high population density. Even in the chaotic Adachi District, the nightlife is equally rich and colorful.

After get off work, in order to relieve the pressure of working during the day, many corporate social animals will choose to go to the izakaya to drink and drink, or go to the custom shop to chat with the ladies and sisters about life.

This kind of situation is very common, causing this street to be very lively every night after eight o'clock.

but.

Shuichi Uesugi's Wangyoukan is a strange place on this street.

His current business hours are from nine o'clock in the morning to nine o'clock in the evening.

It doesn't run overnight like other izakayas.

Rather, it is similar to a normal tavern.

The reason why Uesugi Shuichi did this is simple, he wants to sleep well every day.

have to say.

This reason is really capricious.

Because on this street, only the business at night is the best, and the business during the day is often very bleak.

Choosing to operate during the day is like playing a game, the reverse version.

It is very irrational behavior.

The bosses of several nearby shops also persuaded Uesugi Shuichi to change to operating at night.

But he turned it down.

For the same reason, I want to sleep well.

"Xiuyi, the shops outside are doing well." Next to her, Mianma showed a worried look on her face. She just walked around the streets outside.

I found that other stores are basically full at this time.

There is only Wangyou Pavilion, which is the prime time at 08:30 in the evening, but there is not even a single guest.

This made her really anxious.

"What should we do, Xiuyi, won't our store go bankrupt?"

"Don't worry, it won't go bankrupt."

When Uesugi Shuu heard the words, he had a confident expression on his face.

He believes that with his winemaking skills and cooking skills, he is absolutely capable of running a good tavern.

After all, the few customers during the day had very good comments on the drinks and food in the store.

It's just because it's only been in business for more than half a month, and it hasn't formed more repeat customers.

Now in the entire store, there are only about a dozen repeat customers.

In the future, as long as there are more people, the business will naturally improve.

Listening to his confident words, Mianma also recalled the few guests who had been here.

They all liked the drinks and food in Wangyou Pavilion very much.

So she stopped worrying, and the relaxed expression returned to her face.

"Xiuichi, sister Nezuko, why can't you talk?"

Then, she asked a more concerned question.

"I'm not too sure about this, Tanjiro may know, but he's not here now." Uesugi Hideo noticed Nezuko's strange behavior early on.

I also guessed her identity, whether she is human or not.

But there is no final confirmation, so I can only bury this doubt in my heart for the time being.

I plan to wait for Tanjiro to come back, and then ask him.

At this moment.

The wind chime at the door rang again, and another customer entered the store.

It was none other than Tanjiro that Uesugi Hideichi had just mentioned.

He was still dressed the same as last time, with a bamboo basket on his back.

"Boss, my sister..."

Tanjiro was about to ask about Nezuko's whereabouts, when suddenly he saw Nezuko standing quietly aside, wearing a black and white gothic maid outfit.

"Eh? Nezuko!"

He froze for a moment, and then realized, "Why, Nezuko is dressed like this?"

With such doubts, Tanjiro looked at Uesugi Shuichi with his gaze.

he asked aloud.

"Uesugi-kun, Nezuko's dress...why is it so strange."

In Tanjiro's world, although the level of technology is not low, suits and maid uniforms have also been invented.

But he grew up in a small village and didn't know much about this kind of clothes.

Hence the question.

Uesugi Hideichi also felt a little embarrassed when he heard the qualified question.

He pondered for a while before opening his mouth slowly.

"I said Nezuko chose the clothes herself, do you believe it?"

Tanjiro shook his head directly, with a disbelieving expression on his face.

He knew that his sister was a ghost now, and it was impossible for her to have the aesthetics of a human being.

"Then...the misunderstanding is huge." Uesugi Shuichi felt that he couldn't explain this matter clearly.

He didn't answer at all, just kept his mouth shut.

He planned not to answer no matter how Tanjiro asked.

but.

"Although the style of the clothes is a bit strange, Nezuko is still very cute in it."

Tanjiro didn't show any anger, but looked at his sister with doting eyes.

He looked up and down at Nezuko who was wearing a maid outfit, and felt from the bottom of his heart that his sister was very beautiful in this outfit. *

When Uesugi Shuichi heard this, he smiled in agreement.

He then asked Tanjiro about it.
