As a general, she cannot be a good daughter of Kage.

"Why are you helping him? Just because you want to buy silk?"

Unexpectedly, the other party asked this question.

"..."

Linghua lowered her eyes and thought for a while, then raised her eyes to look at her again, with a hint of complexity in her icy eyes.

"I just did what anyone would do..."

During this period, the general just stared at her.

"From my position, it is indeed a bit strange to help him, but this has nothing to do with status or class... I am just myself, helping an ordinary person who encounters difficulties."

He looked up at the silk on the general's hand and reached out to touch the soft and smooth texture, which seemed not like cloth but like running water.

"I think... maybe this is because... deep down in my heart, I don't think a society where people's livelihood is hindered can be called absolutely 'right'."

clatter...

"?"

I saw the purple-haired woman in front of me walking over and gently pulling her hair back from her ears.

"You've really grown up... Ayaka."

She was very pleased that she had matured both mentally and internally.

"...Ayaka will always be a child in front of the General."

Linghua reached out and took the hand beside her ear and took the initiative to put it on her face and said to her lustfully.

Yes...she will always be a child. Even if she grows old, the woman in front of her will be as young as she is today, right?

100 years is a long time for her, but it is very short for the general. The time she spends with him is also very short and limited, so she must cherish every time.

Chapter of the Snow Crane ~ Narration of the Crane and the White Rabbit ~ : Chapter 65 Is all this what you expected?

After taking the silk from the general's hand, Ogura Mio carefully inspected its surface, and then nodded with satisfaction... her blue eyes glowed with joy.

"Great...this is the silk!"

Then she checked the materials in her store.

"Well...except for silk, our store should have all other accessories..."

He turned around and looked at the two people in front of him again.

"I'm going to check out the materials. They'll be ready soon. You two, please wait here for a moment."

After saying that, she left towards the warehouse at the back.

"...It's been quite a twist."

The general exhaled slightly when he saw this. He didn't expect that making clothes would be so complicated.

"I hope there is nothing missing this time..."

Ayaka smiled in agreement.

"By the way... General, I actually ordered a new set of clothes for you before. Although I used ready-made data, considering that it may not fit, I will ask you to try it on yourself."

She thought of what she had told Ogura before and turned to the purple-haired woman beside her and said.

"...You bought me clothes?"

The general was stunned for a moment and then asked with some trouble.

"Yeah... you always wear this set of clothes, it's time for a change."

My eyes looked at the plain kimono that the other party wears for daily wear. Although it is very beautiful,...you can't always wear one, right?

In her impression, the general in front of her had only worn two sets of clothes. One was the purple gentian flower kimono he wore as the Raiden General, and the other was the current one.

"You don't have to pay for it."

The general felt warm and troubled when he saw that the other party was spending money on him like this... Although the Kamisato family was very well-funded, it looked like the price of this kimono must be very expensive.

"Isn't this different? You have given so many things to Shenlifu, and now Linghua also wants to express your gratitude."

"Huh... these are two different things, that's all... I will pay for the clothes then."

She didn't compromise.

"Well, what do you mean by this? How can I ask you to pay for it? Besides, this dress is also my heart and is given to you!"

Ayaka pursed her lips with a rare dissatisfaction...

"..."

She was silent.

"Huh...you are very kind to the Kamisato family. I just want to express my feelings today. Besides, you always wear this set of clothes. It's time for a change. I originally wanted to make a set for Kage-sama. Yes, but...the fabric is limited and there’s nothing we can do.”

"She won't mind."

The general finally compromised. Since the other party was so firm, she would lose face if she continued to refute. She still had these emotional intelligence.

As for the shadow...the two of them originally share the same body, so whoever wears it also wears it. Of course, if she takes the form of an object, that's a different matter.

By the way...could this be what the child whispered to Ogura before?

"Pfft, um...that's good."

Linghua nodded with satisfaction, as if if the other party didn't agree, she would still give him a hard time.

Her shogun has a slender figure, a perfect figure, and an alluring face... No matter what clothes he wears, he looks good. Of course, the kimono can better reflect the softness of his body, but she wants to change to a different style. After all, it gives Buying clothes is a pleasure for her.

As for herself...she just doesn't lack clothes.

"You two have been waiting for a long time."

A few minutes later——Ogura Rei came to the two of them again.

"How's it going?"

Ayaka asked.

"Good news, all materials are available! Are the dimensions...according to the picture?"

Ogura placed the drawings that Ayaka had given her before on the table.

"Yes."

"Okay...the total price is...this amount!"

Ogura made a sign with the number 'five'.

"Well... please accept it. If you can... I hope it can be expedited and I want both."

Ayaka just glanced at the other party's gesture and then handed a bag of mola into the other person's hand. The noise in the bag must be very expensive.

"..."

Seeing this, the general subconsciously wanted to use his money belt, but unexpectedly, the girl predicted it... and took the first step to hold her hand that was about to move.

"Sir General~?"

Linghua raised her eyebrows slightly, as if asking, 'What did I say before? '.

She didn't move after seeing it... she compromised and asked Ayaka to pay.

"Okay...it just so happens that there are no other orders recently, so I will start making them right now, but...it will take a certain amount of time to make the clothes. You two can come and pick them up in a few days."

Ogura bowed.

"Well...thank you."

After Ayaka nodded, she directly took her hand and pulled her out of the small warehouse.

Walking to the street... Linghua let go of her hand and looked at her fondly and helplessly.

"Sir General, would it be better to leave your money to Master Kage?"

Ayaka could guess that Kage-sama must be penniless.

"She's too lazy to go out."

She was a little embarrassed by what the other party said...but she was indeed right, but she didn't give that person a chance to spend money.

"Haha... This is the first time I see the General looking worried about someone."

She looked at the girl next to her... The other person took her into a restaurant in Hanamizaka. The sign above the restaurant said 'Kinan Ryotei'.

"Are you hungry?"

she asked.

"A bit, and it's time to have dinner now. General, will you come too? Is this something I carefully selected for you?"

Ayaka winked at her sweetly.

She shook her head silently and then looked at the 'Mu Nan Restaurant' in front of her. Speaking of which, she had never tasted this shop before. Maybe she could give it a try?

Kinan Ryotei is a famous small restaurant in Hanamizaka. It is an open shop on the street. It is very convenient for people passing by to eat here. They can order food just by sitting at the bar.

"Welcome, you two!"

The owner of the restaurant, Miss Anna Kinami, greeted the two of them happily when they arrived.

"Hello, Miss Munan."

Ayaka walked to the round stool in front of the bar.

"Oh...Miss Kamisato, you came on time. This is almost the time we agreed."

Miss Munan smiled and replied.

--Appointed time?

The general who was sitting on his seat looked suspiciously at the girl next to him.

"um, yes."

Ayaka felt no movement at all after feeling the general's gaze, and continued to communicate with him as usual.

"When ordering, just follow what I made the reservation before. In addition... please do the things I promised you... too."

Ayaka pointedly reminded her, not wanting to avoid her at all, as if she had already shown her cards.
