Crossover Anime: Randomly Setting Up a Stall with Binchotan Charcoal

go home,

It feels so good to go home with someone.

"Okay, brother, let's go home."

"Okay, I'll go buy some things and then go home."

Since we've all closed up shop, of course I'll go buy some shoes for Xiao Binchotan first.

Xia Tian, ​​who had money in hand, rode her tricycle directly to the nearby shopping mall without any worries.

Park your car in the parking space.

Summer held Xiao Binchotan's little hand and said, "Charcoal, hold your brother's hand, don't get lost."

The bright and spacious shopping mall filled Xiaobinchotan with curiosity.

The town didn't have such a big shopping mall, and the little girl's face was full of surprise.

Kaxilan's big eyes looked around.

Xiao Binchotan had never seen such a lively place before.

When Xiao Binchotan set up his stall at the town festival, he had never seen so many people.

The lively atmosphere excited Xiao Binchangtan. She liked the lively atmosphere, especially the sense of security that came from having someone hold her hand.

Summer was the day he was walking hand-in-hand with such a cute little girl, and she attracted a lot of attention wherever she went.

The little Binchotan's adorable and innocent appearance is like something out of an anime.

"Kawaii! This little girl is so cute and adorable!" a girl said to her best friend next to her.

"Yeah! She's so cute with that charcoal hair accessory on her head..."

"That hair ornament is so realistic, it looks exactly like binchotan charcoal..."

summer:"......"

This isn't a hair ornament; it's binchotan charcoal!

A few cosplayers even dared to come over for a photo op, saying, "Little sister, what character are you cosplaying? You're so cute!"

Summer ignored everyone else and pulled Xiao Binchangtan along to head to the third floor.

Chapter 6 Buying Rabbit Shoes for Little Tanner

"Brother, what are we doing here?"

"Charcoal, things are different here than in town. You need to wear shoes to work. Let's go buy you a pair first~"

Xiao Beichangtan suddenly looked embarrassed and said shyly, "Brother, I only have 500 pills. I don't know if that's enough."

This is all she has left; it's not even enough to buy the smallest bag of rice. It's only because this job provides three meals a day that she's willing to spend so much money on shoes.

"You don't need to pay for it, it's a work benefit. There are also employee uniforms, but you'll only get them after Tan Tan has worked there for a full month."

With an excited expression, the young Binchotan said, "Really? Thank you, brother. I will definitely work hard."

Summer smiled and said, "Yeah, Charcoal is the best!"

He had originally intended to take Binchotan to buy a pair of sneakers, but Binchotan suddenly stopped.

I ran to the glass window of a branded general store.

I looked up and stared intently at a row of fluffy slippers.

Pink bunny shoes, yellow tiger shoes, and even giraffe shoes.

Various animals, various colors, covering an entire wall.

Xiao Binchotan turned to Xia Tian, ​​"Brother~ are those shoes too~"

It's clear the little guy really likes it.

"Charcoal, these are plush slippers."

"Let's go in and have a look!"

The shop assistant saw Xia Tian and Xiao Binchangtan looking around outside, so she came out. She was charmed by the little guy's cuteness, but he was a bit absent-minded and had even lost his shoes.

Little Binchotan looked at Summer with longing in his eyes.

What else can we do in the summer? Of course, we'll spoil her! "Charcoal, let's go inside and take a look."

"Mmm~"

Little Binchotan pulled Summer eagerly into the general store. Inside, the little guy was dazzled by all sorts of adorable slippers.

Little Binchotan had never seen so many lovely shoes before; the town she visited mostly only had straw sandals and cloth shoes.

Seeing so many different kinds of shoes feels like discovering a treasure trove.

"Wow~"

The expression on Xiao Binchotan's face was quite interesting.

"Brother, these are all so cute~" Little Binchotan opened her little hands, overjoyed. She could never have dreamed of such a scene.

You can tell the little guy is very happy and likes it a lot.

"Tan Tan, which one do you like?" Xia Tian asked with a smile. As long as the child likes it, that's fine. Compared to sneakers, perhaps the plush slippers are more suitable for her.

Little Binchotan didn't say anything; his eyes were dazzled by all the cute and adorable ones, and he didn't know which one to choose.

Finally, the little guy's gaze settled on a pair of pink bunny shoes.

"Charcoal, do you like this?"

Seeing the pink slippers, Xiao Binchotan was excited and stared at them intently, but at the same time, she hesitated because she noticed the price tag said 1500 dan yen.

Seeing this, the shop assistant took the shoes down and asked, "Little sister, would you like to try these shoes on?"

Xiao Binchotan shook his head, but Xia Tian encouraged him, "Give it a try."

The shop assistant brought over a small stool for Tan Tan to sit on, and also held a wet towel to wipe the little guy's feet.

"Little sister, why don't you walk a few steps and see?"

Looking at the shoes on her feet, Xiao Binchotan couldn't help but reach out and touch them. They were soft, warm, and very comfortable to touch.

"These shoes will definitely keep my feet warm in winter," thought Xiao Binchotan.

Do you like it?

"Porridge~"

"Do they fit?"

The young Binchotan nodded, looking left and right at his feet, clearly showing that he really liked it.

What else can you say in the summer? Of course, you pay!

After leaving the shop,

Little Binchotan was a little reluctant to wear the shoes; he felt they were too precious to wear.

It's so beautiful.

It's white and fluffy, and it feels warm and cozy in your arms, just like a plush toy, even warmer than the clothes you're wearing.

Summer shook her head helplessly, feeling even more heartbroken as she looked at the reluctant little Binchotan charcoal.

He reached out and patted the little guy's big head. "Tan Tan, you have to wear the shoes you bought. Otherwise, people will think I'm mistreating you, my little employee."

Little Binchotan's big eyes darted around. "That won't do. The boss is a good person. We can't let him be misunderstood. Even at such a young age, he knows that a bad reputation makes it hard to do business."

"Brother, I'll put it on right away."

Little Binchotan decisively and carefully placed the slippers on the ground and stretched out his little feet to put them on.

In an instant, I was enveloped in warmth again.

On the few steps from the mall to the parking space, Xiao Binchangtan's steps were a little unsteady. He didn't know if it was because his shoes were soft or because he was in a good mood, but his feet felt like they were walking on cotton, and he hopped all the way.

To Xia Tian's dismay, the little guy suddenly looked melancholy as he walked.

"These shoes are so expensive! That money could buy two... no, three bags of rice, enough to last me a long, long time! Working in a big city is so hard..."

Whenever Xiao Beichangtan happily jumps around for a while, she remembers that she is standing on several bags of rice, and then she starts to feel regretful. Before long, she jumps around again.

And so it goes...

Until I got in the car and went home,

The little one, wearing fluffy shoes, hummed a song with joy, her little feet swinging back and forth in the passenger seat. Even a street lamp by the roadside seemed wonderful to her.

She figured it out. She'd already bought the shoes, so she'd just work harder to repay her brother, and maybe even skip a meal a day.

With her burden lifted, she liked the rabbit shoes on her feet more and more, and Xiao Binchotan felt she could be happy for a whole year.

"Charcoal, what do you want to eat for lunch? Let's eat our fill before we go back?"

Hearing Xia Tian's question, Xiao Beichangtan was taken aback. After a three-second silence, he shook his head, touched his stomach, and said, "Brother, I'm not hungry. I don't need to eat lunch."

She usually doesn't eat lunch. When there's enough rice, she eats breakfast and dinner. If there isn't enough rice, she only eats breakfast.

"How can this be, Tan Tan? You've forgotten that your brother eats three meals a day, not a single one can be missed."

"You still want to eat this? The same as this morning?" Xiao Beichangtan blushed and scratched his head sheepishly. "Why don't we go back and cook some porridge? We haven't finished the pickled vegetables from this morning!"

As for eating out, Xiao Binchangtan would never dare to. She was a little shocked by the prices here. Her brother's shumai cost 500 dan. How much money would it cost to eat a meal like that?

It's more economical to cook at home. Anyway, she's not a picky eater, and she's happy as long as she has rice to eat.

As she spoke, Xiao You looked conflicted again and added, "Actually, I'm not hungry right now, so there's no need to waste rice."

"..."

Summer ignored her. Since that's the case, let's go back and eat.

After half an hour,

The two street vendors chugged back to the villa on their tricycle.

As soon as he got home, Xiao Binchangtan, wearing new shoes, rushed out of Xia Tian's room and went back to the cabin.

Looking at his house, now missing a wall, Little Binchotan shouted excitedly.

“Aida Nashi”.

(Grandma, I'm back! Look at my new shoes, the shop owner gave them to me as a gift.)

Xia Tian smiled slightly behind her. She knew this was the little one's habit. She would say it every time she went out and came home. Although she vaguely knew that she could no longer get a response from her mother-in-law, the little one still did it every day.

Perhaps all she was hoping for was a response.

My mother-in-law isn't here, so I'll take her place.

"Welcome back~"

Hearing Xia Tian's words, Xiao Beichangtan was stunned. She realized that she was not alone anymore; her brother was still in this family.

After so long, today... we finally received a response.

This feeling is so good.

Turning around, Xiao Beichangtan burst into laughter through his tears and happily repeated, "Brother, I'm back."

"Welcome back," Xia Tian replied gently.

Chapter 7 Under the Snow, Conquered by Shumai

11:30 a.m.

After a busy morning, Hiratsuka Shizuka finally had her lunch break.

Looking around at my colleagues, I saw that the teachers were eating lunch boxes or bread in twos and threes.

She's different; she also has delicious shumai.

I bought 11 in the morning. She ate five for breakfast and had six left, which was enough for her to have a full lunch.

Remembering her shumai, Hiratsuka Shizuka took out a lunchbox, packed it in, and put it in the microwave to heat it up.
