After enjoying the watermelon from the Central Plains, Kasumigaoka Shiyu wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and asked Yan Kai: "Junior, why do you suddenly think of eating watermelon? Summer is almost over!"
Yan Kai couldn't answer. He saw the tweeter and thought of selling watermelon, and then thought of eating watermelon. He could only ask: "Is it delicious?"
"tasty!"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu nodded vigorously, this was really delicious, not the Japanese watermelon that "must be delicious" with the blessing of metaphysics.
"Isn't it delicious?"
Yan Kai said with a smile.
"Right."
Kasumigaoka Shiyu nodded, why should he care about bicycles when he can eat such delicious watermelon!
"By the way, I have two more watermelons here. You and Saeko can take them with you one by one when you go back."
Yan Kai said to Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu.
"Well, no, this kind of watermelon should be very expensive..."
Kasumigaoka Shiyu refused, but her attitude of refusal was not very firm. After all, it was such a good watermelon, so her attitude of refusal was really not firm.
Well, the main reason is that she is too familiar with Yan Kai. If the person is a stranger, then her attitude can be very firm.
Yan Kai said nonchalantly: "Two watermelons, how expensive are they? In this season, you can buy them locally for up to ten yuan each!"
And I received about fifty, so it makes no sense not to give one to you and Saeko each...
"Wait, how many did you just say?"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu was stunned. Did she hear it wrong just now or something happened?
"Ten yuan each, Chinese currency, equivalent to about 178 Japanese yen, if the exchange rate doesn't change drastically!"
Yan Kai replied, and thoughtfully gave the price in RMB.
No way, now is not the cheapest season for watermelons. One piece per pound is a bit expensive.
"I..." Kasumigaoka Shiyu's hand holding the watermelon rind was trembling. She really wanted to smash the watermelon rind on the heads of JA and those politicians who colluded with JA.
Get your money back! Give me back the money I spent eating watermelon over the years, you bastard!
Kasumigaoka Shiyu took a deep breath, and then said: "But, this watermelon was shipped from the Central Plains. You also said that it is difficult to transport this kind of watermelon, so the freight should be expensive, right? After all this, it is still very expensive!"
"It's okay. Sister Xingyi asked her brother to help with the shipment. It didn't cost a penny for shipping." Yan Kai said with a smile.
Haha, for the sake of the current head of the Beishan family, will it cost a penny to ask the shipping company under the name of the Sanji faction to add a few boxes of watermelons?
"Well, I didn't pay any tariffs either." After a pause, Yan Kai continued.
This is the key point. Every time I look at Japan’s tariffs on agricultural products, I feel that in this era, robbing money is really a very low-level thing.
"Well done!"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
For those bastards who fully explained what "Japanese people only try to trick Japanese people", even Kasumigaoka Shiyu felt resentful if he gave them an extra penny.
"In this case, I'm ashamed to receive it!"
A watermelon that was less than two hundred yen, Kasumigaoka Shiyu wanted to respond to Yan Kai's kindness with a smile, but for some reason tears flowed down her face.
It got hard, her fist got hard, and she wanted to hit JA on the head again!
After wiping out all the watermelons, Yan Kai's meal was prepared. After eating the watermelon and then eating Yan Kai's meal, it was a double enjoyment. Kasumigaoka Shiyu felt that her day was so beautiful that she could ascend to heaven. The only thing she had to worry about was her. own weight.
Autumn is coming, and this is a time when it is easy to gain weight. If she continues to not control her diet like this, she, Kasumigaoka Shiyu, will probably become "fat" Kasumigaoka Shiyu in the future! Or maybe Kasumigaoka "Fat Wings"?
Eh... I feel so disgusted just thinking about it! Absolutely not!
Whenever she thinks about the weight issue, Kasumigaoka Shiyu will feel like "people from the Central Plains are harming me", but thinking about it carefully, Yan Kai has a mouth on her body, except for the piece of watermelon just now, Yan Kai did not put other food into her mouth Rise, this seems to be a problem with her weak will, and cannot be blamed on Yan Kai. However, if Yan Kai's dishes weren't so delicious, why would her will have to go through such a severe test? And the test failed!
So, is this a strange appearance or not?
Kasumigaoka Shiyu fell into a dilemma.
…………………………
"President Yan Kai, the school festival is coming soon. Have you planned your performance at the school festival?"
During the club activity time after school, Natsukawa Zhenliang arrived on time again. She asked with a smile on her face, looking very concerned about the club activities.
Yan Kai was not writing a book at this time, but painting.
It's not that he has finished writing. He has written dozens of books intermittently these days, filling most of the bookshelves in the activity room. But compared with the books Yan Kai has read, they are just the tip of the iceberg. He doesn't want to read them. It’s easy to tell when I can write it all out silently.
"Already thought about it."
There is a scroll unfolded in front of Yan Kai. The painting has been completed and Yan Kai is writing in the blank space.
The painting shows a dilapidated temple in the mountains. The dilapidated temple is very dilapidated. The wind and snow are pouring in along the dilapidated doors and windows. In front of the fire, a scholar and an old man are leaning side by side to resist the severe cold. The old man holds a puppet in his arms and asks the scholar. Tell something.
In this painting, the most attractive thing about Natsukawa Masuo is not the scholar with the protagonist's face, nor the old man with a face full of vicissitudes of life, but the puppet held in the old man's arms. Although the puppet is mostly covered, it cannot be seen. People saw a straight face, but Natsukawa Zhenliang still felt a faint aura from the puppet from "still holding the pipa, half-hiding the face". She was a puppet, but she seemed to be alive, silently listening to the old man's words. Discourse.
A very powerful painting!
Whether it is the coldness of the wind and snow, the decay of the ruined temple, the warmth of the bonfire, the elegance of the scholar, the vicissitudes of the old man, or the agility of the puppet, this painting is vividly reflected. Looking at this painting, Natsu Chuanzhenliang actually has his own She also felt like standing in front of the fire and listening to the old man's story. She could even feel that what the old man was talking about was the puppet in his arms.
Xia Chuanzhenliang's heart moved slightly. This inexplicable Central Plains person, although strange and rustic, is really very talented. Not only is he good at calligraphy, he makes delicious snacks, he is also so good at painting!
Natsukawa Masuo has participated in several high-end art exhibitions with her father. In order not to make a fool of herself, she also spent some time appreciating art. But to be honest, she is not very interested in the works of any master, especially abstract art and floating world. Paintings, all these things, gave me a headache just looking at them. However, in order to maintain the persona of "a well-educated lady", when she looked at those paintings, she had to show that she was moved by the master's works. You also need to read out the art terminology that you know, some and some, to prove that you understand those paintings very well.
And she is not worried that what she says will be exposed by others. Everyone pretends to understand anyway. Most people don't understand the professional terms she speaks, so how can they expose her?
Oh, upper class society...
But Yan Kai's paintings are different. You don't need to analyze his painting from professional perspectives such as composition and technique. Just a glance, this painting seems to print a very touching story in people's minds. This feeling, Natsukawa Zhenliang has never been like this.
After reading the painting, Xia Chuanzhenliang saw that Yan Kai was still writing in the blank space. She thought that Yan Kai had finished writing in a few strokes, but this time Yan Kai's writing speed was not fast, but appeared to be very meticulous. , in the past, Yan Kai often wrote dozens or dozens of calligraphy characters per second, and his hands were so fast that he could see the afterimages, but this time, Yan Kai took several minutes to write hundreds of characters. Unlike other people, it took him several minutes to write. It seems to be very fast, but compared with before, this is still slow.
Natsukawa Masuo doesn't know many Chinese characters, and he doesn't have a good understanding of the meanings of Chinese characters. After all, in Japanese and Chinese, many times "the words have different meanings, but the meanings are different." It is very difficult to use the Chinese characters learned in Japanese to guess the meaning of Chinese characters. Easy to make jokes.
"call……"
When Xia Chuanzhenliang was about to ask Yan Kai what the Chinese characters meant, Yan Kai finally finished writing, and he breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that Yan Kai had finished writing, Kasumigaoka Shiyu also hurriedly came over to read, and even Natsukawa Zhenliang squeezed out a little space.
Natsukawa Maryo doesn't know Chinese, but Kasumigaoka Shiyu was "forced" by Yan Kai to become a Chinese "level 8" (the highest level of Chinese language test for foreigners is level 6). After watching Dream of Red Mansions, he even became interested in developing "red studies" , her level of Chinese, especially classical Chinese, was even higher than that of the average Central Plains person. She could understand at a glance the classical Chinese text written by Yan Kai in the blank space of the scroll, and read it out softly in Chinese: "Young Master Yu can see ghosts and taste snow." I met a puppet figure in Yeye Temple. He had ragged hair and only held one extremely finely made puppet. He looked like a charming girl, with eyelashes full of tears and painted with beads, which made people feel pity..."
Natsukawa Maryo listened carefully to the Chinese that Kasumigaoka Shiha read...
Well, Natsukawa Mareyo not only couldn't read Chinese characters, but she couldn't understand Chinese either, but she could tell that Kasumigaoka Shiyu became more and more emotional the more she read it, and at the end, there was a hint of trembling in her voice.
After finishing reading for a long time, Kasumigaoka Shiyu came back to his senses and wiped the corners of his eyes without leaving a trace.
"Junior, what is this?"
Yan Kaikai started writing, and after Kasumigaoka Shiyu asked a question, he picked up the scroll and hung it on the wall. Then he said to Kasumigaoka Shiyu: "The background story of an ancient song that was popular in the Central Plains a few years ago. Later someone based it on this There are many dances included in the story, and I picked one of them and plan to perform it during the school festival. Do you think it’s okay, senior?”
Kasumigaoka Shiyu's eyes followed the painting: "Although I haven't seen it yet, I believe it must be beautiful!"
This dance must be beautiful, otherwise I will be sorry for such a story, and I will be sorry for the painting Yan Kai drew based on the story.
Yan Kai took out his mobile phone, called up a song and dance video and put it on the table. At the same time, he called Chitong who was eating snacks and Eve who was reading a book to come over.
"Come and take a look! If you can, decide this is it."
Yan Kai clicked on the video and said to the four members.
"good!"
The four of them agreed in unison, but when they gathered around the table, Kasumigaoka Shiu and Natsukawa Masuo actually showed seriousness, while Eve and Akahomi were both uninterested.
Neither of them was interested in singing or dancing.
The song and dance video is very short, only about four minutes, but Kasumigaoka Shiu and Natsukawa Masuo exclaimed more than once in these short four minutes, especially at the end of the video, the dance plot evolved into the old man throwing the puppet into the fire. After being burned to the ground, the soul of the puppet flew out and gently hugged the old man. This episode even made the two people have tears in their eyes.
On the other hand, Eve and Chitong... Eve just wants to go back and read a book quickly. She just read a paragraph and didn't understand it. She wants to read it a few more times and chew it over and over again. The same goes for Chitong. She hasn't finished her snack yet. She has a training mission in the evening. It's very heavy. If you don't eat well, how can you train for strength?
Unlike Kasumigaoka Shiu and Natsukawa Masuo, who have encountered setbacks in life, but have not suffered much in essence, these two people have faced the darkness of the world head-on, and have suffered enough to make ordinary people despair. It's impossible to impress them with just a song and dance video.
"It's great. This dance is so well choreographed. Junior, don't hesitate, just choose this one!"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu said a little excitedly.
Natsukawa Masuo wanted to pretend to be elegant and calm, but he couldn't help but nodded vigorously and said: "President, I also agree with Kasumigaoka-senpai!"
After Kasumigaoka Shiu and Natsukawa Masuo, who really took the school festival seriously, agreed, Eve and Akahitomi, who only wanted to follow the trend and take advantage of the situation, of course nodded.
As long as it doesn't bother them, it doesn't matter to them.
It seems that the dance is a duet, a matter of two people. If Kasumigaoka Shiu and Natsukawa Masuo are so interested, then they shouldn’t have to worry about it. It’s perfect!
"Very good, you all like it after all!"
Yan Kai clapped his hands, and then asked one more question: "Are you really sure?"
Kasumigaoka Shiu and Natsukawa Masuo both nodded firmly, while Eve and Akahomi nodded indifferently.
Yan Kai nodded with satisfaction, "Then let me ask, which of you has a foundation in dance?"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu froze. She just thought that the artistic conception and movements of this dance were very beautiful, but she never thought that she seemed to have no dance foundation.
"I have learned some dance, but I don't know if I can do it..." Natsukawa Zhenliang said hesitantly.
This summer, dance was one of the courses her father arranged for her. Although it was different from what was shown in the video, Natsukawa Malyo thought it was not a big problem.
She is also very good at motor skills.
"Uh... can I study now?"
Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu asked Yan Kaidao weakly.
"Okay, it's very simple anyway, so it should be easy to learn."
Yan Kai nodded.
When you say this, I feel even more flustered...
Kasumigaoka Shiyu felt that she had a toothache, because she felt that Yan Kai's simple things might not be the same for her, no, for most people.
"Xia Chuan has the basics, so he will be responsible for the more difficult part, which is the puppet dance." Yan Kai assigned the work, "Eve and Chitong..."
The two shook their heads wildly.
"I'm not tall enough!" Eve, who has always been very concerned about her figure, took the initiative to expose her shortcomings this time.
"My body is stiff!" Chitong seemed to be suddenly possessed by a robot and made a set of very stiff movements.
"..." Yan Kai.
Do you really not want to dance that much...
Since both of them had good reasons, Yan Kai could only turn his attention to Kasumigaoka Shiyu.
"Well...if it's an old man, I think I can do it..."
Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu felt a little guilty.
She remembered that in the video, "Old Man" had relatively simple dance moves.
"Well, the old man's part is indeed relatively simple, but..."
Yan Kai suddenly took a few steps up, almost touching Kasumigaoka Shiyu's face.
"What, what are you doing..."
Suddenly being slapped in the face by Yan Kai, Kasumigaoka Shiyu said in a panic. The breath exhaled by Yan Kai could even hit Kasumigaoka Shiyu's face.
"ah?"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu became even more panicked, and just when she was at a loss, Yan Kai gently touched her feet, and Kasumigaoka Shiyu's legs suddenly slid forward and back...
"...Anyway, let's do a split first and see!"
"ah!"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu, who spread her legs into a standard one-horse position, suddenly let out a scream...
