This thing about me becoming a girl

Hearing this, Mariko Sawamura looked at her youthful face, and she didn't have any ill feeling towards the offspring of the granddaughter of Mr. Furuya's former wife's second marriage, and in her eyes, this was a flawed but still pure soul.

"Well, I'll wait for you."

She said this lightly, and then looked at Grandma Huaze who was at the side.

As for Grandma Huaze, her old wrinkled face was also full of kind and kind smiles.

"Be careful all the way, if you have time, you can also come and play."

Hearing this, Mariko Sawamura remained silent, and she didn't know what she was thinking in her penetrating blue eyes.

Perhaps, this is the last side. After all, Mari Aoi Sawamura can see it, and Grandma Hanazawa will die soon.

After a moment, she bowed.

"Thank you for your care during this time, treasure."

Scattered snowflakes were floating in the sky, and when a gust of wind blew, the fluffy snowflakes seemed to be swirling, and it was unknown where they would go.

The bus started, and Grandma Hanazawa and Murono Komachi, who stayed where they were, were waving their hands until the figure of the bus gradually faded away.

In the car, Sawamura Mari Aoi sat on the seat, with a cold and delicate face, neither happy nor sad.

From the beginning when I came here, I just planned to bring the ashes of Mr. Furuya back to my hometown, and after I heard that praying for those who died in great pain and sorrow at the shrine, the deceased will be happy in the next life, Mari Aoi Sawamura stayed until Now, two months later, it's time for her to leave too.

She also has a reason to go back.

When sweeping the fallen leaves at the shrine, she also seemed to be sweeping the dusty heart. Now, she also knows what she should do.

The bus was driving straight on the road, bringing back fish and geese, and high-flying eagles.

In the residential area of ​​Sawamura, in the kendo field, several young children were holding bamboo swords and doing "suzhen" intently.

There are still many kendo halls like this in the residential area of ​​Sawamura. After all, Sawamura itself is a family of samurai. For every child, kendo is a compulsory course.

It's just that this sword dojo is different. Those who can practice here are all direct children of Sawamura.

Sawamura's contemporary imperial palace has more than ten children. Odaisho Sho, the first wife of the imperial palace, of course, is not so fertile. Except for Sawamura Isuzu and Sawamura Koko, who are both parents and children of Odaisho Sho, the rest, They were all born of the Imperial Household and other women.

And this sword dojo is also a dojo for the children of the direct line to practice, including these children who are not much different in age at this time, and they are also grandchildren of Sawamura Homi.

Similarly, this is also the dojo where Sawamura Mari Aoi once practiced.

After a long Suzhen, the strict master finally gave these children some short rest time.

But even if it's a break, you have to sit upright, and you can't just lie on the floor casually, otherwise the master will be punished for extra training if he sees it.

At this time, these children sat in a row and discussed quietly.

"I heard that Sister Makoto seems to be back."

"Hey! Really, it is said that she has disappeared for more than two months, and no one has said where she went."

"Really, my brother saw her return to the residential area with his own eyes in the morning."

"That's it, I don't know where Sister Zhenkui has been in the past two months. Ever since I lost to that big killing stone, there has been no news..."

At the mention of this, several children couldn't help but fell silent. After all, the former Mari Aoi Sawamura was the benchmark of kendo in their opinion. They never thought that that invincible sister would lose to a contemporary...

At that time, watching TV Yulong Banner Nakazawamura Mariko's embarrassed appearance, they seemed to have seen the idol's distress from time to time, and they felt very uncomfortable from the bottom of their hearts.

It is precisely because of this incident that many young people in the clan are determined to practice kendo in anger, and they target the Daguo Killing Stone, and they are bound to avenge Sawamura Mariko.

It's just a pity that in the end, for some unknown reason, Dagu's killing stone died.

At this time, a child who was relatively calm said suddenly.

"However, I heard that Sister Zhenkui seemed to have a fight with Dagu Killing Stone, and I also heard about it.

Do you remember the forest fire in Taito District? At that time, a certain girl from Isuzu rushed to the scene to organize the fire fighting, and mobilized a lot of people, because it was said that Sister Makoto was also in the forest at that time. Fortunately, she came out safely later, but the search and rescue is waiting When the personnel entered the scene of the fire, they also found another half-dead person, that is, Dagu Killing Stone. His chest was cut open at that time, exposing his ribs. "

Hearing this, several children quickly asked.

"Really? Are you sure."

And the person who said this was also very helpless.

"I just heard it, I don't know if it's true."

After the short rest period ended, several children re-entered the boring practice of swordsmanship, and this dojo did not know how many traces of children's practice existed.

In the inner circle of the residential area, in front of a manor villa, Mari Aoi Sawamura stopped in front of the door.

She looked at the manor in front of her, although she was familiar with it, it was also unfamiliar.

She didn't know how long she hadn't been to this manor that she had watched and looked forward to countless times during her childhood.

This is the residence of her biological mother, Sawamura Kokoto.

Because the small caged bird in Sawamura has been abroad all year round, it has been vacant for a long time.

And Sawamura Mari Aoi lived here when she was a child.

It wasn't until she grew up a little bit and gained some autonomy that the clan assigned her a new residence and moved away from here.

It can be said that this place contains the entire childhood of Mari Aoi Sawamura, even though they are all bad memories.

Similarly, it was here that she met Shangshan for the first time.

Sawamura Mariko looked at the manor in front of her, and recalled that she hadn't been here for a long, long time, and she hadn't been here since she moved away.

And this time, she came here only because her mother returned to the country, but she only stayed for a short period of time, and she would probably leave soon.

So Sawamura Mari Aoi wanted to meet her.

She rang the doorbell, and soon there was a surprised voice from the pager above the doorbell, presumably she saw the face of Sawamura Mariko from the screen.

"Miss...Miss?"

---

Sawamura Mari Aoi was led into the manor by the hurried maid. After seeing her, the maid said respectfully and happily.

"Miss, you haven't come back for a long time. This time, you came here because you heard the news that a certain Jiyang is coming back, so you came here specially to see her."

The maid in front of me is the head maid who is in charge of a series of daily tasks in the manor, so she has naturally come into contact with Sawamura Mari Aoi.

Hearing this, Mari Aoi Sawamura nodded.

"Well, I'm here to see my mother."

Just when the head maid was about to continue to say something with a smile, she suddenly froze, wait, is there something wrong.

! !

The eldest lady has spoken! ! !

In the villa, the head maid was still in shock when Mariko Sawamura spoke, and at this time, Mariko Sawamura finally saw her mother.

Sawamura Xiaolongniao was sitting on the sofa decently, sipping black tea and spending the long afternoon with the books in front of him.

She was dressed in pure white clothes, her thick long hair was tied up loosely by light black lace, and her elegant eyes were as pure and ethereal as water, but also slightly arrogant.

It seems that just by looking at her, one can feel the sense of layering that belongs to the word "beautiful".

Although Sawamura's caged bird is not tall, her innate temperament seems to make you have to bend over to talk to her.

After seeing Sawamura Mari Aoi approaching, she said softly.

"Have you come back? I heard that you went to Shigang before."

Hearing this, there is another sense of exquisiteness and flawlessness, even though Sawamura Xiaocage Bird has been so well-dressed, Sawamura Mari Aoi, who has never been overwhelmed in front of her, opened her mouth and said.

"Well, I have some things to deal with in Shigang, so I went there."

Sawamura Xiaocage Bird froze for a moment, blinked his eyes, and stopped holding the black tea.

She glanced at Sawamura Mari Aoi, and then again.

Can this child speak smoothly?

"Has the speech disease recovered?"

Sawamura Mari Aoi nodded.

Seeing this, Sawamura Xiaocageniao didn't ask any more questions, and it was a good thing that he recovered.

So she said again.

"Then what are you going to do next, and shouldn't you still have a lot of things to do? You will see me when you come back."

Sawamura Xiaolongniao asked like this, picked up the black tea and was about to take a sip and continued to look at the books on the table, but the next second, Sawamura Mari Aoi's answer made her hand holding the black tea stop again.

"I want to see you again."

Sawamura Mari Aoi said with a cold voice, without any fluctuations.

And Sawamura Xiaocangniao also understood something when she heard the words. She put down the black tea cup, pondered for a while, and said.

"Have you thought about it?"

Sawamura Mari Aoi nodded, showing that she had thought it through.

Immediately, Sawamura Xiaocagedori did not speak any more, and the atmosphere was silent for a long time.

The mother and daughter, who hadn't seen each other for a long time, or the number of times they had met for so many years, could be counted on one hand. No matter how long it had been since they met, they only talked with each other for a few words, and then they ushered in silence.

Perhaps for this mother and daughter, the other party is just the most familiar, but very strange person, and they only meet because of blood ties.

After such a silent atmosphere lasted for a long time, it finally came to an end with the appearance of the previous head maid.

"Master Jiyang, do you need to make any changes to the lunch plan you originally prepared?"

Because of Mari Aoi Sawamura's visit today, the head maid came here to ask Sawamura Kokoto if he needed to add any dishes.

Hearing this, Sawamura Xiaocagedori also remained silent.

Speaking of which, she doesn't even know what Zhenzhen Kui likes to eat the most.

After a while, she said.

"Just follow the original plan."

But just after she finished speaking, and the head maid was about to step down, Sawamura Xiaocage bird thought about it, but suddenly said again.

"Forget it, I'll do it myself."
