Standalone Tokyo

Chapter 108 Daily Life

Time flies by like blue smoke, disappearing in the blink of an eye, and soon it’s December 31st, the New Year’s Eve time.

In the morning, Masato Fujiwara opened her eyes. After getting up and washing herself, she began to take out the new clothes she had just bought two days ago from the closet and prepared to change into them.

Throughout Asia, houses are cleaned before the New Year, and Japan is no exception. In the past few days, Masato Fujiwara also led several NPC subordinates to clean the house carefully, inside and out.

After finishing these chores, Fujiwara Masato went to the vehicle on the first floor and drove the hatchback out.

Because Masato Fujiwara was the only one left in the Fujiwara family, the New Year would be very lonely. Therefore, Keiko Inoshita and Asami Inoshita warmly invited the former to their home to celebrate the New Year.

Fujiwara Masato did not refuse, because this was indeed the case. He was now the only official member of the so-called Fujiwara family. He stayed at home alone during the Chinese New Year. Apart from controlling Huang Mao to go out to work, he had nothing else to do.

And continuing to commit murder and arson during the Chinese New Year is unlucky no matter how you look at it.

Therefore, after carefully considering the matter, I decided to go to Inoshita's house to celebrate the New Year. At the same time, this is also my first time to visit Inoshita Keiko's home, so I need to be more cautious in my personal etiquette.

Although it has been almost a year, Masato Fujiwara is still like a Chinese who came to Japan to study and has only a vague understanding of the customs here.

After thinking about it for a while, Fujiwara Masato went to a high-end Japanese confectionery shop last night and bought three boxes of high-end dessert gift packages. Then he went to the fruit shop and bought a watermelon and three boxes of strawberries.

Masato Fujiwara just checked it out on the Internet, and then gave up the idea of ​​learning it due to a headache, and decided to do it according to his own habits and ideas.

Because of Japan’s distorted and abnormal agricultural environment, the price of fruits in this country is very expensive, and watermelon and strawberry are the best among them. Generally, Japanese people buy watermelon by the slice and strawberry in a small box.

Fujiwara Masato was welcomed in with a smile, and then changed his shoes at the entrance.

"Masato-kun, come in quickly!"

There seem to be a lot of rules in Japanese souvenir etiquette, and the type, value, and packaging of gifts are all particular. Masato Fujiwara couldn't pay attention to these, and it was still the same reason that he didn't understand.

Putting on new clothes and carrying two large bags of gifts, when Fujiwara Masato rang the doorbell of Inoshita's house "again", he could hear the rapid footsteps inside from far to near.

What's even worse is that I don't know if it's because Japan has too many feudal habits left over, or because they just like small gifts. The Japanese have a myriad of little rules when it comes to visiting guests and receiving hosts.

Therefore, Fujiwara Masato felt that even if he did not do well in some etiquette, the members of the Inshita family would forgive him for the sake of a big watermelon and nearly a pound of strawberries.

Therefore, in some Japanese animations, the male and female protagonists use sticks to blow up a watermelon on the beach, which is actually an act of showing off their wealth.

For some reason that cannot be explained, Fujiwara Masato is actually very familiar with the Inoshita family members, but he cannot show this familiarity.

First time visiting to buy something.

The door was forcefully opened, revealing Keiko Inoshita's face with a bright smile.

Therefore, when Inoshita Keiko took him into the house and introduced him to the members of the Inoshita family one by one in the guest room, Fujiwara Masato tried his best to use his acting skills and show his restraint and shyness.

"This is my father."

"Hello, uncle, I am Masato Fujiwara." "Hello, hello..." Daisuke Inoshita quickly stood up from the sofa, grabbed Masato Fujiwara's hand, and smiled more flatteringly at the latter than he did. .

"I am very honored to meet you."

Well, Masato Fujiwara suddenly fell silent. Your reaction made me at a loss.

But this seems to be a normal thing, don't worry about it, but in this way, your preparation seems a bit redundant... Forget it, don't worry about it.

Inoshita Keiko was a little surprised by her father's performance, but she thought it was a good thing, so she ignored it and continued to introduce the last person in the hall.

"This is my sister..."

"Hi, Brother Fujiwara, I am Ryoka Inoshita!" A young and beautiful girl jumped over, squeezed in between Masato Fujiwara and Keiko Inoshita, hugged Masato Fujiwara's arm, and shook her vigorously.

"I am a JC now, please give me some advice!"

"Please give me some advice!" Masato Fujiwara looked at Keiko Inoshita with a little embarrassment and asked her for help because his arm already felt soft.

And whether Inoshita Ryoka was too naive or a little cautious, during the process, she also deliberately rubbed Fujiwara Masato's arm, making the softness rub against her repeatedly.

This is a bit fatal. As a young and energetic young man, Masato Fujiwara has also been deliberately exercising his body recently, so that his anger is not as strong as usual.

In just a few moments, Fujiwara Masato's second brother became energetic.

When Inoshita Keiko saw Fujiwara Masato's gaze, she seemed unable to understand the emotion in the latter's eyes. Instead, she smiled cheerfully, took the gift bag from his hand and ran to the kitchen, letting him continue to be... Ryoka Ishita harasses.

However, Asami Inoshita, who was watching TV, noticed Ryoka's behavior and Masato Fujiwara's embarrassment, so she rushed over, grabbed Ryoka and dragged her to sit on the sofa.

"Stop messing around..."

Well, that's good. As expected, the experienced Asami Inoshita is more understanding.

Fujiwara Masato stayed at the Inoshita family for a while, and after getting acquainted with the other two members of the Inoshita family, he and Daisuke Inoshita watched TV together.

Inoshita Keiko and Inoshita Asami were working in the kitchen. Inoshita Ryoka seemed to be very interested in Fujiwara Masato. While watching TV, she found an excuse to sit next to the latter and kept chatting with him, asking him about his daily life. and hobbies.

Time flew by and it soon came to night. Dinner was New Year's Eve soba noodles. After eating, the Inoshita family turned on the TV and waited until the unique Japanese red and white song show started.

Watching TV and chatting, the atmosphere at Jingxia's home is warm and harmonious, and there is no problem at all in the family.

However, Daisuke Inoshita still received a call before the Kohaku Song Festival started, and then he got dressed and went out, citing work needs as an excuse.

Asami Inoshita seemed to have expected this, and she did not persuade her husband to go out. Masato Fujiwara also saw Ryoka Inoshita, who was not deep in the city, showing an expected expression. Only Keiko Inoshita was a little hard to understand, and blocked her father's exit. Leave, but it doesn't work.

The New Year's Eve at the Jingxia family had a slightly more disharmonious atmosphere because of this episode.
