As the sun sets, the house takes on a whole new look.
Mrs. Butterfly and the other two ladies went into the house to prepare dinner. The food smelled delicious, there was a sizzling sound as it was put into the pot, the lights were lit, and they sounded very busy.
Squeak! Squeak!
The homemade rattan chair was shaking, and grandpa, with his eyes half closed and wrapped in a thick cotton coat, was watching quietly from a place where he could have a panoramic view of the courtyard.
The wind was a little cold between dusk and late night. The two men sat on the wooden benches in the courtyard and played chess leisurely.
Rustling!
clap clap!
A nimble red light flashed by, and the red lantern gently fell from the tree trunk. Butterfly Shinobu clapped her hands crisply, put her hands on her hips, looked at her masterpiece, and nodded with satisfaction.
Now, this job is easy for her to do alone.
“It’s really something that couldn’t be simpler”
card!
Before he could finish his words, the red lantern rustled and fell down.
Shinobu Kocho, frozen in the wind, found herself in a lot of trouble.
However, all in all, it was a warm and peaceful year.
Of course, there is still some gap, because some people have not returned yet.
After finishing her work, Shinobu Kocho looked back at the wide open door. There were several wooden stakes supporting wooden boards, forming an open-air corridor.
Sitting on it, Tou Mingfei was leaning against a pillar with his left leg hanging in the air. He was drinking tea cup by cup with a book open in his right hand. This was a habit he had developed in the past three months.
But he did not stay on the words but shifted his gaze towards the door, revealing all the boy's thoughts.
"Don't worry, sister will come back safely." Kocho Shinobu came forward and patted Shi Mingfei's shoulder comfortingly.
"It's just a mission. It will absolutely be fine. After all, she is my best sister."
"No, please don't say that." Shi Mingming rolled his eyes, thinking back to what he had seen and heard today, and complained unhappily.
"You just said that sweeping the roof would be fine, but you almost fell. It's an ancient building, right? I don't know if the fallen tiles will be worth several years of your pocket money in a few years." Ignoring Hudie's frozen face, Shi Mingfei opened half of the firepower.
"I didn't have time to show off after hanging the lanterns before the tree branch was broken. Xiaonin, I have a very forward-looking suggestion for you." Shi Mingming was very serious.
"Before tonight is over, you'd better shut up. I feel like you are just a reverse crow's mouth, just like you are poisonous."
"I hope the new year and new atmosphere can wash away the bad luck that has accumulated on you like coal briquettes, Amitabha." Shi Minghong imitated Uncle Beimingyu and clasped his hands together devoutly, but the book sandwiched between them exposed his identity as a pseudo-believer.
"You! Shi Ming Ming Fei! What are you talking about?!" Kocho Shinobu gritted her teeth, stretched out her little fist, and was about to hit him.
But the boy suddenly disappeared in front of him, leaving only a book flying in the air and falling.
Shinobu Kocho suddenly turned around and looked in the direction he was running towards - the gate of the courtyard.
Obviously, she was not as confident as she said, and she was not worried about her sister's safety at all.
The setting sun completely sank below the horizon, taking away all the light of the world. Two figures stood at the door, looking forward to the shadow coming towards them from afar.
The black color gradually faded away and the face became clearer.
At that time, the expressions of Tomoyuki and Shinobu Kocho changed from expectation to surprise.
It's like an angler who wants to catch a big fish in the sea, but when he pulls the rod hard, he realizes that what he is wrestling with is just a broken boot.
"Happy New Year," Tomioka Giyu nodded to the two of them. Seeing that they didn't respond, he pursed his lips and glanced at Shi Mingfei.
"Happy birthday!"
There were some pauses and no further news.
Well, now they felt that the fishing line that was entangled with the broken boot had broken, and they had lost a good fish hook in vain.

Chapter 131 No one cheats like you! Brother Yaoya!
"I thought it was my sister, but I saw Giyuu instead?"
In the warm room, Shinkomo blinked, sipped his tea, looked at the depressed Shinobu Kocho in his arms, and rubbed her head.
"Yes, it's not that I don't welcome you. I'm very happy that you are here. But the scene just now was like you climbed up a mountain with great effort. You wanted to see the warm morning sun, but you encountered a cold ice cube. You can imagine how it feels, Zhengu!"
Shinobu Kocho hugged the petite girl's small waist and buried her face in the soft and warm belly of the kneeling girl, rubbing it and muttering incoherently.
Not far away, Mr. Urokodaki, who was of similar age, and Grandpa Tokito, hit it off immediately and chatted about the well-known events of their time.
The two men who are already fathers listened with great interest as if they were children, as if it were bringing back their childhood memories.
Giyu Tomioka followed his sister like a follower, with a knife on his waist, and didn't say a word.
Looking at Miss Tsutako's helpless expression, if you didn't know, you would think that she was being threatened by the kid with a knife behind her. She didn't look like a sibling at all.
My younger brother is even less talkative! What does he usually do? Is he just staring at the river?
I used to be a bit dull, but after practicing for a year, I have regressed and feel a bit stupid.
Next to Xuantu was a square wooden box. He still wore that familiar warm smile, and he linked arms with Shi Mingming, sharing their gains of the year. He also curiously asked Shi Mingming about his progress. When he learned that he had mastered all five breathing techniques, he couldn't help but sincerely praised, "You are worthy of being me, Mingfei!"
Shi Ming Toufei responded intermittently, but his ears pricked up and all his attention was focused on the tightly closed sliding door.
Until the sound of knocking was heard, Shi Ming Tou Fei and Kocho Shinobu were startled again and looked towards the door.
With a click!
The door is opened,
A big owl led two little owls and a beautiful woman pushed the door open.
"Long time no see, Happy New Year, everyone!" Uncle Purgatory waved and greeted, looking at Shi Mingfei,
"Happy birthday, Mingfei? What's that expression on your face?"
"You owe me eleven years, no!" Shi Mingming shook his head and looked at Uncle Purgatory unhappily.
"How dare you, the uncle who owed me birthday presents for twelve years, say something like that?"
"Haha, you already owe so much, it doesn't matter if you owe it for another year." Uncle Purgatory scratched the back of his head and laughed heartily. After chatting for a few words, he took Senjuro's hand and moved closer to the group of adults.
Aunt Liuhuo came into the kitchen, wanting to help a few people. Seeing how familiar she seemed, it was obviously not her first visit.
But she didn't know why. After a whisper, she was driven out by several people, with a helpless look on her face.
Rengoku Kyojuro was not shy at all, and soon became good friends with Santo. While exchanging their thoughts on training, he generously said to Tomoyuki who was grateful to him for saving Kanae, "Friendship, righteousness of colleagues, a small effort, it's nothing to mention!"
After not seeing him for many days, he has become a little more refined, which is definitely due to Aunt Liuhuo.
After all, Uncle Purgatory, who allowed his son, who had not yet learned the Flame Breathing Sword Form, to directly take the team entrance examination, did not look like a reliable person.
Just as Ming was thinking this, there was a polite knock on the door.
Just when he was wondering whether the ones coming this time were Mr. Kuwashima and his friends, or Brother Yaoya.
The door was pushed open with great effort by the tiny Chijuro, revealing his unexpected figure.
"Happy New Year," Fushigawa Shigeya, contrary to his usual behavior, was stunned at first, then gave Senjuro a smile that almost scared him to tears.
With a face full of scars, he bent over and bowed to the man carrying a basket, demonstrating the utmost etiquette.
"I'm sorry to bother you with your visit."
"What are you looking at!"
When Busei-san sat down, he gave a wild smile to Shi Ming-tou.
Shi Ming rolled his eyes and threw an orange to the madman.
You can't go wrong.
Seeing the white-haired hedgehog peeling an orange and putting it into his mouth without any precautions, and then his face twisted with sourness and he wanted to chop it with a knife on the spot, Shi Ming was secretly happy in his heart.
This is the familiar Shiya.
"No! No! Stay away from me!"
Agatsuma Zenitsu's terrified roar could be heard far and wide, and he was the loudest visitor.
He rushed into the door and knocked the little owl, who was struggling to close the door, to the ground, with a confused look on his face.
My wife Zenitsu hid in the corner timidly with his butt sticking up. Upon closer inspection, it was found that the one bullying him was just a sparrow that made a chirping sound.
"It's really lively," followed Mr. Kuwashima, looking to the right with emotion.
"Urokotaki, long time no see. You're still wearing that ridiculous mask? What's wrong with showing your face? Of those old guys back then, I'm the only one left alive. Don't you want to show me?"
"Hmph! I really don't know why it was your leg that was broken instead of your mouth." Urokotaki said this and took off Hantengu's mask. He looked at Kuwashima unhappily, but that gentle and kind face did not have any power at all.
It was obvious from their conversation that the two old men had known each other for a long time.
This is not surprising, after all, they are two pillars of the same period.
They were arguing with each other and neither of them gave in, but there was a deep friendship behind them. Perhaps this was the friendship that came from fighting side by side and slaying evil spirits together.
Ka——!
The sound of crows was heard, and a black shadow with golden eyes came in and rubbed against Shi Ming's face affectionately.
"Okay, okay, so many people are watching."
At that time, Tou Ming pushed the child to death without resistance.
For some reason, this kid is most attached to Shinobu Kocho who gave him herbs, not him, who is useless in naming.
"It seems that I am a little late."
Ubuyashiki Yoya arrived late and stopped the pillars from kneeling. Instead, he sat down with Rock Pillar Beimei Islet and started talking happily to everyone.
Ubuyashiki Amane wanted to go into the kitchen to help, but was driven out again.
She was already pregnant, so she had no choice but to chat with Aunt Liuhuo about family matters and ask for advice on how to educate a child.
After all, she has only been a mother for a short time and still has a lot to learn.
Shinobu Kocho stood with her back bent, while Shinkomo curled up and squatted, stretching out her fingers to tease the two little white-haired creatures lying in front of her.
Chijuro stood aside, watching with his head tilted, blinking his eyes, looking more like an owl.
"Ming Fei, how is it?"
It's unknown when Ubuyashiki Yoya came to Tokito Konosuba who was leaning against a corner of the room. Just now, he made up an excuse to Busuigawa and the others that he was a little tired and shrank into this small corner.
Like him, Ubuyashiki Yoya had one leg stretched out and the other leg curled up, no longer having his usual aristocratic posture.
He and the boy were in a small corner together, pointing to the spacious classroom in front of him and smiling with satisfaction.
"Are you satisfied with the gift I gave you?"
"Brother Yaoya, you are cheating a bit now."
Third update,
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 132 The lonely ice hidden in Ming Fei's heart,
Shi Mingfei frowned and muttered, but he couldn't help but look forward.
Those scenes lit up the warm light in my heart, like an illusory dream in my mind.
But there was a thick layer of frosted glass between us, so we could only see but not touch.
The cottage is swaying in warm light, with green tatami mats one after another and black wooden walls supporting the bright ceiling. All decorations have been moved out, leaving only flower arrangements and ink paintings hanging on the walls.
It is obviously more spacious than the original old house, but at this moment, it seems extremely crowded.
Not far away in the kitchen on the right side of the living room, Mom, Mrs. Butterfly, and Miss Tsuta were busy as hell. The hot oil was boiling, the fire was simmering, the aroma of the seasonings was faint, and there were smiles in between the busy work.
A strong smell of fireworks.
Now Shi Mingfei understood why dinner was prepared so early.
Because the number of people attending the banquet this time exceeded that of any previous time.
In a corner of the living room near the kitchen, Sister Tianyin and Aunt Liuhuo were talking with their hands covering their mouths, glancing towards the kitchen, always ready for any emergency.
