My girlfriend is a bad lady

"Okay, try your bike." Toru Watanabe picked up Xiaolian and put her on the children's bike.

Xiaolian sat on it, holding the handlebars with both hands, and it took her a long time to come back to her senses.

"Archer, photos! Photos! We need to show them!"

"Look here, we're going to shoot!"

"Hmm!" Xiaolian frowned and straightened her little back.

After taking the photos, the five people, plus the impatient Xiaolian, left the villa.

On both sides are the main roads of the forest, with small paths extending out, and at the end of each path is a villa.

To Xiaolian, who was riding a bicycle, the structure before her was full of mystery. It was a world she had never imagined.

Everything was sparkling, the wind blew her hair, her young face was slightly dazed, only her feet subconsciously stepped on the pedals.

The other five followed behind her.

If they rode bicycles together with Xiaolian's children's bicycle, the speed would be so slow that they might not even be able to stand up on the bicycle.

The air was cool and Toru Watanabe stretched lazily.

"It's more comfortable to be in a place with fewer people like this. When I picked up Xiaolian just now, everyone thought I was an idol, or they treated me like the Tokyo Tower and wanted to take pictures with me."

"Have you considered making your debut?" Mrs. Kujo said with a smile, "I will personally make you a big star."

“Not interested in being famous.”

"If you become a star, can't you just play Ultraman?" Kujo Miki laughed.

"What else is 555?" Qingye Rin agreed.

"Come on, you two, stop it. I've graduated from my chuunibyou!"

"Altman has heard of it, what is 555?" Mrs. Kiyono asked curiously, holding her daughter's hand.

Qingye Rin raised her chin slightly to Watanabe Toru and said, "Put on a show."

"I'm seventeen years old," Toru Watanabe firmly refused, "If I were one or two years younger, I might still be able to perform and be proud of it."

Qingye Rin smiled.

She wasn't laughing at him for lying or for suddenly being shy at this moment, but because these words came from "The Great Gatsby", which was the first book Toru Watanabe borrowed from her.

A little tacit understanding known only to the two of them.

"I want to see it, too." Mrs. Kujo put her hands on her daughter's shoulders, poked her head out from behind her, and looked at Watanabe Toru expectantly, "Watanabe-kun, please show me a performance."

"Mei Ji..."

"If your mother wants to see it, just perform for her, dear." Miki Kujo said with a smile.

"..."

"I'm going to leave you here!" Xiaolian, who had ridden far away, turned back and shouted loudly.

"I'm coming!" Watanabe Toru walked up quickly, "Xiao Lian, I'll push the cart for you."

"So fast! So fast!"

"Captain, please keep the direction and don't crash into the forest!"

"We are the captain?"

"Yes, you are the Captain!"

"We are the captain!"

The two of them shouted and ran towards the commercial street.

"We've graduated from chuunibyou, but we're still kids." The two young ladies said at the same time as they watched the two people walking away.

"..." The two of them stared at each other with a piercing gaze.

The two ladies looked at each other and laughed.

Qingye Rin pulled her arms out of her mother's arms.

Miki Kujo shook her shoulders and shook off her mother's hands.

Chapter 307: Karuizawa in August (2)

The lush green forests on both sides do not look like an island country, but rather a bit like Europe, with a slightly dim tone.

In the forests of fir and larch, weeds grow extremely lush and moss covers the edges of the roads.

From time to time, cyclists pass by in pairs.

When more and more tourists came, we arrived at the shopping street, which is the most lively old street in Karuizawa.

The old European-style churches along the street;

The pedestrians coming and going are dressed fashionably and exquisitely;

There are many shops full of art, antique shops and Western restaurants;

The retro red bus has a square cabin and square glass, just like a large candy jar.

Xiaolian rode on a cute children's bicycle, her eyes sparkling, staring at everything in front of her for a long time.

She felt that she must have come to a magical world.

Toru Watanabe captured this scene on his mobile phone.

They walked along the street, and almost every time they entered a store, the merchandise on display captivated Xiaolian.

"Archer!" She raised her little face, pulled Watanabe Toru's sleeve, turned her head and said to him as if she had found a treasure, "The hat is so cute."

"Do you want it?" Toru Watanabe squatted on one knee and looked at the hat with her.

A children's sun hat with a beautiful blue ribbon bow.

"Hmm!" Xiaolian's eyes widened, "Want to buy it for us?"

"How about trying it on first? If it looks good, buy it."

Xiaolian stared at the hat for a long time, shook her head, and said childishly:

"Forget it, Mom told me not to spend Archer's money carelessly."

"Be good, auntie will buy it for you, okay?" Mrs. Qingye couldn't help but rub Xiaolian's head.

Xiaolian still shook her head.

"It's not a waste of money," said Toru Watanabe. "Hats are necessary in summer. Otherwise, you will get sunburned."

"Is that so?!" Xiaolian looked at him in surprise, "I've never worn it in summer!"

"That's because you were little before, but now you're grown up, so you get sunburned. Does Grandpa Tansho wear a hat like this every time he goes to the fields?"

Xiaolian opened her mouth wide, and suddenly she said with sudden enlightenment: "It is indeed a must-have in summer!"

Watanabe Toru stood up and asked the clerk: "Can I try it?"

"Of course!" the clerk said quickly, "This model is very popular with children and is the best-selling children's model in the store!"

Xiaolian put on the hat, looked at herself in the mirror, and let out a surprised and satisfied sound of "Oh".

"The sun hat and dress are a classic combination. Let's buy a dress next," said Rin Kiyono.

"Dress?!" Xiaolian turned her head to look at her.

"Let's go." Qingye Rin took Xiaolian's hand and they walked out of the store.

"Xiao Lian, your brother just lied to you. Getting sunburned has nothing to do with age, and it's not that easy to get sunburned in Karuizawa."

"..." Xiaolian stared at her blankly, "Do you want to return the hat?"

"I'll ask you a question. If you answer it correctly, you don't have to pay it back."

"We will answer it correctly!"

The two of them walked out of the hat shop like an older sister leading her younger sister.

The remaining four people looked at them. Kujo Miki hugged her elbows and sneered, "She's like her sister."

"Is Miki jealous?" asked Kiyono Yuko with a smile.

"Jealous?"

"Rin's sister, there was only Miki before."

"Is that so?" Mrs. Kujo looked at her daughter with a smile.

Miki Kujo stared at the two of them coldly.

"Don't make my Meiji angry!" Toru Watanabe hooked Kujo Meiji's shoulders and walked out of the store to chase his sisters.

"Are you kidding me?" Miki Kujo turned her head and stared at him.

"It's called making you happy."

"Watanabe Toru, you are becoming more and more presumptuous, Miss..."

The ladies looked at the two men's disappearing backs, glanced at each other, and laughed at the same time.

Two young women who looked to be in their twenties followed, arm in arm.

Buying a dress at a clothing store;

Enjoy the aroma of tea in a special tea restaurant and eat cake while watching the rushing stream;

Find the oldest taste of Karuizawa brewed with centuries-old craftsmanship at the Jam Shop.

Xiaolian found everything new and exciting. She followed Watanabe Toru closely at first, but eventually became familiar with her sisters and aunts and only discussed things with them.

"Xiao Lian, it's almost time to go. You will be staying here for a month, so you will have plenty of time to come and visit." Mrs. Kujo said.

Xiaolian leaned over the window with her hands, taking a last reluctant look at the half-man-high beehive.

Next to the beehive, there is a small hill made of honey jars.

After Mrs. Kujo's persuasion, Xiaolian finally walked out of the store.

She held Qingye Rin with one hand and held the dragonfly doll with the other: "Sister Rin, there was a bee nest in our house."

"Really?" Qingye Rin asked knowingly.

"Yeah! But not this big, only as big as mom's fist. We picked the flowers and wanted them to collect honey, but mom destroyed the bees' home the next day."

"Xiaolian's mother is doing this for Xiaolian's own good."

"Yeah." Xiaolian nodded.

After leaving the honey shop, they went to the supermarket.

Xiaolian was amazed and said intoxicatedly, "Is this a supermarket?"

"This is considered small. When we return to Tokyo, auntie will take you to a real shopping mall," said Mrs. Kiyono.

"Ok!"

"Xiao Lian," Watanabe Toru took a shopping cart, "Do you want to push it?"

"Let's push!" Xiaolian raised her hand.

Xiaolian struggled to push the large shopping cart, and Watanabe Toru helped her carry the dolls.

"Let's have pork shabu-shabu tonight!" Mrs. Kiyono happily selected the ingredients.

We only bought enough for dinner - which is not a small amount for six people. Moreover, the ladies obviously did not have the concept of "almost enough to eat" when buying things. Although it was only dinner, they put the ingredients they wanted into the shopping cart when they saw them.

The ingredients for the day are bought on the same day, including the bread for the morning.

I don’t know if I can sustain the life of buying ingredients and cooking every day, but it’s totally fine to try it occasionally, like this August.

After buying the ingredients, Xiaolian was already tired.

We had originally planned to go to a coffee shop called "Maruyama" to buy coffee beans, but the two ladies had to go by themselves.

Watanabe Toru, the two young ladies, and Xiaolian, the four of them sat on a bench under the shade of a tree, eating ice cream cones and waiting for them.

There was a pile of shopping bags around Toru Watanabe, and at Xiaolian's feet was her children's bicycle. She was wearing a sun hat and holding a big-eyed dragonfly doll in her arms.

In front of us is a small forest park with some children's facilities arranged among the tall trees.
