Ome Quartet of Snow Country

Chapter 387 Soy Sauce Dumplings
Ding-dong-

Ringing the doorbell, Hai Xing waited at the door for a while, and soon there was a sound of footsteps inside.

"Who?"

"Hello, Ms. Nakamura, the real wood hotel delivers wine to your door."

"Ah, the wine ordered in the morning has arrived."

Wow, the door opened, and a middle-aged woman came out.

"The wine you want."

"Thank you, it's really early."

Ms. Nakamura took the two bottles of wine and looked at Haixing again, "Are you Mr. Maki's daughter?"

"Yes."

"It's so beautiful." She smiled at her, "Wait a minute, I'll get you money."

Starfish obediently responded, "Okay."

And Ms. Nakamura walked a few steps, then suddenly turned her head and looked at another girl waiting behind Hai Xing.

"Are you... looking for Hitomi?"

"No, I came here with Ms. Maki." Morimi lowered his head slightly, "Excuse me."

"I see."

Ms. Nakamura nodded, turned around and went in without saying much.

Watching her disappear, Morimi looked left and right again, this place was relatively unfamiliar to her.

"I didn't expect people from Kurotaki's side to buy wine at Hai Xing's hotel."

"Well... they are all people my father knows."

Hai Xing also looked around, the Nakamura house was on the side of the road, and behind the house was a large apple orchard, which was also the landmark for her to find this house, and she was actually quite unfamiliar with this place.

"When I was in the first grade, there seemed to be a girl in class E who lived here." Morimi said.

"Ah, yes." Haixing nodded, "But she goes out very early, so it's hard to meet her usually."

"Does Haixing know the Renmei that aunt mentioned just now?"

"I don't know..."

"I've been waiting for a long time." The two chatted in low voices, and Ms. Nakamura came out quickly, handing over the money for the wine and the cost of delivering the wine to Hai Xing.

"Thank you for your patronage."

Saying goodbye to the guests, Hai Xing got on his bicycle and left with Mori Jian.

"There is the last bottle left." Mori Jian looked at the wine box on the back seat of the bicycle, "Where is it from?"

"Let me see……"

Hai Xing stopped by the side of the road and took out the delivery slip, "It's on Kurotaki's side, it's...'Narita's house next to Inari Shrine'."

"Inari Shrine? It's on the other side of the intersection you just came over, let's go."

There was no car on the road, and the two rode side by side, looking for the last house.

Hai Xing was a little behind, looking forward and also at Sen Jian.

Running around all afternoon, the distance of the furthest orders is almost ten kilometers, and she has been with her all the time, delivering the last order now.

She often rides a bicycle to deliver wine, and she feels a little tired, let alone a frail top student.

But she followed all the way down.

And in her own words, it's "rest" and "relaxation."

Is it really just for the so-called mental rest?

Starfish couldn't be sure.

Between them, there is another conversation that should have started long ago, but is constantly being postponed.

Maybe Yiye was waiting for her to speak?
Haixing couldn't understand.

"Turn this way." Mori Jian said suddenly.

"Ah... um."

She followed immediately.

Turning a corner at the intersection, and continuing to ride forward for a while, the two of them saw the vermilion torii gate on the side of the road at the same time.

"arrive."

"Ah."

It's just that the shrine is not the final destination, they still have to find the Narita family here.

"Let me ask." Morimi stopped in front of the shop next to the shrine.

Sitting inside was an old woman wearing glasses, also looking at them.

"Hello……"

Hai Xing was waiting outside, but Mori Jian quickly came out and pointed to the front, "That's the yard."

"Oh oh."

"Starfish, let's go."

Through the hem of the skirt, Mori Jian pressed his crotch and smiled at her.

"I've been riding for too long, and it's a bit painful here... I'll take a little rest here."

"it is good."

With a kick, Hai Xing came to Narita's house ahead and handed over the last bottle of wine to the guest.

"Thank you for your patronage."

The car turned around, and then went back to the store. Morimi was standing at the door, holding something in his hand.

"Want to eat?"

Hai Xing stopped in the past, only to see that what she was holding in her hand was a plate of soy sauce dumplings.

"Is it sold here?"

"Yes." Morimi pointed to the conspicuous handwritten sign outside the store, "Forty yen a bunch, it's cheap, but it tastes good."

There are four dumplings on a string, not too big and not too small, just enough to be eaten in one bite, but not too small.

She had one bunch in her hand and four more on the plate.

"Try it."

"Thank you."

"You can also add soybean powder in it. I would choke on this kind of powder, so I didn't add it. Do you want to add some to Starfish?"

"Eh, good."

Sen Jian turned around, "Grandma, sprinkle some soy flour on her."

The grandma of the store simply brought another small plate for Haixing, and Mori gave her three skewers of dumplings.

Starfish licked his lower lip as he watched the soy flour sprinkled down, part of it melted into the sweet and salty sauce, and most of it was sprinkled on the caramel-colored dumplings.

Pick up a bunch of dumpling, bite down one, the soybean powder melts into the long-awaited body fluid, melts in the mouth, the hot dumpling is fluffy and soft, and the taste is surprisingly good.

"Well!"

Seeing the surprise on her face, Sen Jian smiled, swallowed the dumpling in his mouth, and said, "This is wheat dumpling, not glutinous rice dumpling."

"Mmmm."

Starfish nodded, probably because she had eaten it.

Standing at the door of the store, she ate several dumplings one after another, and then looked back inside.

There are two rice cookers on the counter, one of which is used to keep the gnocchi warm and the other filled with sauce.

"The taste of the sauce is just right." Morimi said, "The degree of sweetness and saltiness is just right."

"Yeah." Starfish nodded, agreeing.

After finishing the soy sauce dumplings and returning the small plate to the grandma in the store, Morimi bought two more bottles of drinks.

"Give."

"thanks……"

After eating and drinking, the fatigue of riding more than ten kilometers seems to have dissipated a lot.

"It's all here, let's pay a visit by the way." Mori Jian pointed to the nearby Inari Shrine.

"Okay."

Although it is a small shrine that can be seen everywhere, the vermilion torii on the outside is brightly painted, and the inside is fairly tidy. Obviously, it is often taken care of by people. This alone is much better than most small shrines.

The two went in and turned around, and paid homage.Next to it was a cemetery, and they did not continue to approach it.

"You can see the end at a glance." Starfish looked at the torii gate outside and said, "There is nowhere to stay. Probably only wild cats and crows will come here."

"It's really bold for Hai Xing to say such things in the shrine."

"..."

She turned her head, clasped her hands together, and bowed to the closed temple.

Sen Jian smiled, "Do you want to go back?"

"Ah."

Before returning to the store, the two of them got on their bicycles, said goodbye to the grandma inside, and rode back.

"There are no other orders this afternoon." Mori Jian asked.

"Nothing."

"Then ride slowly, it's still early."

Hai Xing looked at her, "Hmm..."

Slowly pedaling, the two rode forward unsteadily, but there was still no one on the way back.

"Actually, I didn't do anything..." Senjian said suddenly.

Starfish was taken aback, "Huh?"

"But I feel much better." She continued, looking forward, "Sure enough, I should exercise more."

"Um……"

Starfish responded, not knowing what to say.

"When I'm tired, I don't have the energy to think about it."

"..."

"Ah." She seemed to think of something suddenly, "That guy might have paralyzed himself like this."

Hai Xing subconsciously thought she was talking about Naruse, but after thinking about it, she felt something was wrong.

"Light?"

Sen Jian turned his head away, didn't speak, just smiled at her.

Hai Xing pursed her lower lip, her thoughts wandering.

Light is paralyzing myself...

Does light like him too?

No, it's strange just not liking him.

But on Yiye's side, do you mean to talk to her about that topic?

Should I answer the call?

What should I say after receiving it?
What can two failed competitors talk about?
so annoying...

"Car." Senjian suddenly reminded.

Hai Xing came back to her senses, a small truck was driving on the road ahead, she slowed down and followed her.

The small truck quickly passed by, looking at the back in front, Hai Xing subconsciously gave up the plan to speed up and ride on it.

Mori slowed down.

"..."

The front of the car turned to avoid her car, but Hai Xing rode beside her.

"Soy sauce dumplings are so delicious." Mori Jian said suddenly.

"Eh?"

She smiled at her, "Come again next time."

"it is good……"

She looked forward again.

Half a head behind, Haixing looked at her for a while, then kicked twice to keep up.

"I'll treat you next time."

"Okay."

　Thanks to the leader of the book friend [Jiangye Zhinan], let's add more slowly and remember first.
