Tokyo female publicist

Hmph~ Sayuri narrowed her eyes after scanning the words, as cunning as a fox.

Faintly, she said to herself.

"It's you who should be ready, Ms. Karagawa."

Chapter 11. Is your girlfriend Pickled Pepper Chicken Feet?

In addition to socializing at night, Sayuri also has to take care of her personal relationships during the day.

Usually, I am friendly with the neighbors in the neighborhood. From time to time, I go to Aunt Masako’s house as a guest for lunch, but on weekends, I am relatively busy, and I have to play with cute girls.

Miki is still visiting relatives in the Celestial Dynasty. The remaining two girls who have a good relationship with Sayuri are cousin Haruna and eldest daughter Xiaolushan Qianxiang. These two are younger sisters who are much younger than her. They are cute and very close to her. They don't need to be tense and think about how to please them like they do with guests, so Sayuri always relaxes and feels more comfortable when interacting with them.

To a certain extent, these two people can be said to be the white moonlight in Sayuri's heart, enough to make her temporarily forget all kinds of worries about debts, colleagues, and customers' business.

It's the time when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom in Tokyo, the chief of all things, even the elementary school students have to have a spring opportunity, Haruna has to participate in the Spring Festival held by the school for two days this weekend and can't come to play, so she relieved Sayuri's worries The heavy responsibility fell on Xiaolushan Qianxiang.

Ringing the doorbell of Sayuri's house at ten o'clock in the morning, being a guest at Sayuri's house, playing with the future for a while, and finally got the cat's intimacy as he wished, and was licked even though there was a layer of medical gloves in between, This year's [-]th, the appearance is elegant and well-developed, and the inner heart may be simpler than Haruna's girl, who is still happy and full of beauty.

And after getting joy from the future, Chika Fawn immediately returned to her master Sayuri.

"Wow, that cherry tree in the yard is really beautiful! It's so big! It's so beautiful!"

Fulfilling last week's agreement, Xiaolushan Qianxiang took Sayuri to eat high-end cuisine, and it was Miss Qianjin who came from a traditional big family, and what she took Sayuri to eat was the neon and elegant kaiseki cuisine.

The location is in Shizuoka County in the suburbs. When you walk into an antique two-story wooden building, you will be greeted in kimono in front of you, followed by two burly bodyguards in black. Walking along the aisle, you will be ushered into the box that Qianxiang of Xiaolushan has reserved. As soon as she entered it, Sayuri's eyes were blurred by the spring light in the courtyard outside the house.

The sliding door on the balcony of the room is wide open, and a few cherry petals fall on the tatami. Following the traces of the petals, the branches are like umbrellas, and the cherry trees that completely bring the entire courtyard into its shade are in full bloom, and the sky is full of cherry blossoms. It's like a fairyland.

I have never seen such a blooming cherry tree, and for a moment I forgot all the gorgeous rhetoric, and the most vulgar admiration kept popping out of Sayuri's mouth.

"Hehe, this is one of the largest cherry blossom trees in the Tokyo area. It is said that it has a history of more than 300 years."

While talking, Xiaolu Shanqianxiang had already entered the compartment, knelt down on the cushion, looked at the cherry tree with a bit of nostalgia, and smiled.

"At that time, I fell from this tree and was admitted to the hospital."

"Huh? Then there will be no problem coming here?"

Hearing Xiaolushan Qianxiang's words, Sayuri was startled, she fell into a coma in the hospital for more than ten years, and after waking up, she was able to return to this old place to eat, this young lady is really open-minded.

"Of course not. I was able to save my life when I fell from a tree when I was young. It was all thanks to the protection of God Sakura. In the following years, my mother often came here to pray for me. Everyone said that it was my mother's sincerity that moved me. Lord Kami Sakura, this is how I wake up again."

"It is precisely because your mother never gave up on you that we have the present time."

Even after undergoing transformation once, Sayuri believed in the power of people even more, she softened her expression, and she preached to Xiaolushan Qianxiang.

Dazed for a moment, there was a bit of water in his eyes, Xiaolushan Qianxiang also said.

"Indeed, it's all thanks to my mother."

Even if there is a reservation, the kaiseki cuisine will not be made until the customer orders. After watching the cherry trees in the courtyard with Xiaolushan Qianshan for a while, Sayuri's long-awaited "I'm sorry" finally came from the paper door. sounded from the other side.

After sitting down again, the appetizers were served first, they were all served in very small dishes, and the contents were only a few mouthfuls. Just as she was about to praise the delicacy, Sayuri raised her head and moved her lips to move her words but stayed on her lips.

Food aside, the well-educated eldest lady took up her "airframe" again.

Last week, it took only a few minutes to eat noodles at home, and Sayuri could barely bear it, but if she wanted to follow this rule in the kaiseki cuisine, which had [-] steps from serving to finishing, she absolutely couldn't do it.

Because the person in front of her is not a guest, Sayuri wants to tell Xiaolushan Qianxiang: she is at fault.

"Miss Xiaolushan, how about chatting with me during meal time?"

"..."

Stopping the chopsticks, looking straight at Sayuri, Chika Fawn showed a bit of panic on her face.

"Perhaps it is necessary to appear elegant and virtuous in front of your eldest lady friends, but I am just your ordinary friend, and I hope Miss Xiaolushan at this time can also be my ordinary friend.

You should have watched TV, right? Eating is the time when you can’t stop talking. There are so many delicious and delicate dishes. If you can’t comment on them in real time, the taste will be greatly reduced. "

"But grandpa taught me not to talk when I eat and not to talk when I sleep."

The old man in the big family nodded, and Sayuri expressed her understanding.

It has only been nine months since she woke up from a vegetative state, and her childhood experiences are too numerous to count. Xiaolu Shanqianxiang's understanding of the current world was all established during those nine months.

Rehabilitation, how to use daily necessities, how to communicate with people, and various etiquettes that need to be followed in daily life, all such complicated things have been filled in Xiaolu Shanqianxiang's mind in nine months, and she doesn't know how to adapt It's a natural thing, and when the education of most old men is carried out in a rigid way, it will make them even more rigid, and they only know how to follow the etiquette taught rigidly.

"But what happened on TV and in daily life is different from what your grandpa said, isn't it? I guess your grandpa can't use a smartphone, and I guess you saw other young ladies talking and laughing in the academy Yan Yan must be very envious of eating."

"Some people talk when they eat, but the ladies around me don't talk."

There are also differences between the eldest ladies, some are fashionable and some are elegant, which is why Xiaolushan Qianxiang can still follow the rules of eating without speaking.

"But ordinary people can talk when they eat, Xiaolushan, you also want to talk to me, right?"

"But......"

With the idea of ​​developing into close friends with Sayuri in her heart, Xiaolushan Qianxiang was obviously moved after hearing the words, but she was still a little scruples, thinking that it would be too forceful for her to give up the behavioral norms she had insisted on for several months in a short time. Sayuri gave further relief.

"Then it's like this, when the waiters come in to serve the food, we will stop talking tacitly, and we will talk after they leave, and treat this as a secret between the two of us, and it is not a violation of the rules not to let others know. "

"secret!"

For children, the "common secret" is the best means and method to get closer.

No matter how elegant etiquette is used to cover up the childishness in her heart, Xiaolu Shanqianxiang is still an immature child in essence, and she is immediately excited after hearing the word "secret".

Strike while the iron is hot, put her hand on her lips and winked playfully, Sayuri said softly.

"Yes, a secret that only belongs to the two of us, a proof of our friendship."

"it is good!"

Talking in a soft voice that was no longer the same as before, she leaned forward excitedly leaning on the table, and this time Chika Chika, the little deer, spoke in such a way that she was almost shouting.

Inexplicably, Sayuri felt guilty again that she was deceiving an "older girl", and a doubt arose in her heart.

At the same time, he has a well-developed body and an immature mind. If we say that he has a relationship with the current Xiaolushan Qianxiang, is it considered copper smelting or not?

In doubt, Xiaolu Shanqian, who finally realized that she was too excited, quickly withdrew her body and sat back on the cushion, her plain face blushed and buried in her chest with shame, showing an astonishing obsession.

If people who don't know, for example, two bodyguards are guarding the door at the moment, if they come in and see the appearance of the eldest lady, they will think that she is in love.

But no, what Sayuri knew in her heart, everything was just that this immature girl who used standard etiquette to cover up her loneliness and desire to seek friends was just happy for the beautiful friendship.

Xiaolushan Qianxiang is not that precocious girl of Haruna, how could she have feelings other than friendship for her?

No, no.

If you can talk, you won't be bored during the dinner, and the extremely delicious dishes make Sayuri happy from ear to ear. From time to time, it flashes in her heart that she might marry Xiaolushan...well, just marry Mei Ms. Ji's depraved idea of ​​being a pig in captivity.

"Well, this sashimi is so tender that it melts my tongue."

He didn't know the correct way to eat kaiseki cuisine, Xiao Lushan was too busy chatting with Sayuri about other topics and didn't teach, all the grilled food was served on Sayuri's table, the sashimi only moved a few chopsticks, and he was sighing, The deep voice of the bodyguard came from outside the house asking if he could enter the house now.

Putting down the bowls and chopsticks, taking a few deep breaths to calm down the excitement of speaking at the banquet for the first time since waking up, Xiaolushan Qianxiang allowed the bodyguards to enter.

"It's Madam's call."

"Miss Fukada, let me leave the table for a moment."

On what occasion, what happened and what to say, these Xiaolu Shanqianxiang had received quite formulaic teachings. After seeing Sayuri nodding, this overly polite young lady got up and went out of the room.

Did not go far, through the paper sliding door Sayuri can clearly see Xiaolushan Qianxiang standing in front of the door, slim and tall, but the voice is not very audible because Xiaolushan Qianxiang is used to speaking softly clear.

The room became deserted for a while, Sayuri looked at the cherry trees in full bloom in the courtyard, and raised her chopsticks to take a mouthful of the smooth sashimi, and immediately frightened by Xiaolu Shan Qianxiang's sudden cry, she swallowed it in a panic, thanks to the slippery fish Tender and thorn-free so she didn't choke on it.

"I can only see you once a week. This side is more important. I won't go back!"

I don't know what unpleasant things I talked on the phone with my mother, and it was several times louder than the previous "good", and the record of Xiaolushan Qianxiang's voice in Sayuri's heart was greatly refreshed again.

Once a week, here... is obviously referring to her, that is to say, did Chika deer give up another important thing in order to come to see her?

I was cared about by this lovely and innocent eldest lady, and the warmth of Xiu suddenly fell into Sayuri's heart.

Really, it's obviously public relations, but it's about to be subconsciously and slowly captured by Xiaolushan Qianxiang. Thinking, Sayuri smiled and tilted her head, and at this time Xiaolushan Qianxiang also opened the door and returned to the house after finishing the phone call.

"Sorry, I was a little emotional just now, which made you see an inappropriate side."

"Ordinary, children as old as you often yell at their parents, maybe this is a good thing, it proves that you are becoming ordinary, of course, don't do it too much, after all, the other party is such a good mother to you .”

"Well, I just couldn't hold back for a while."

Chewing the steamed tea bowl in her mouth, Xiaolu Shanqian said.

This eldest lady is really easy to be taught badly, and she just broke the precept of not talking, and now she can talk to Sayuri naturally by chewing food in her mouth.

"What do you seem to be putting off for my sake?"

"......Um."

Lowering her eyes, Chika Xiaolushan nodded.

"It's the time to enjoy the flowers. In fact, the students in the class organized a spring outing today, but I declined it. My mother who knew about it called me now to ask me why, and asked me to go back immediately to participate."

"You lied to your mother?"

"No, it's just that mother only knows now."

"Then you didn't tell her last night?"

"She didn't come home last night."

The small sadness that is unique to a big family, because of the busy business, parents and children may not meet once in a long time, nodded, Sayuri expressed understanding, and then asked other questions.

"Your relationship with your family is actually not good?"

Just now when Xiao Lushan Qianxiang heard that it was her mother's call, her expression immediately stiffened and she was not clear. It was obviously a sign of a rift between her and her mother, and recalled that during the dinner, this young lady did not mention anything other than her grandfather and mother. Relatives, this made Sayuri more convinced of her guess.

After all, she has been lying in bed for ten years, and things have changed and people have changed for ten years. Perhaps Xiaolushan Qianxiang has not been well integrated into the current family.

Regarding this, Xiaolushan Qianxiang did not hide it, and after hesitating for a moment, she told the truth.

"It's not bad, it's just that I always feel that I can't get close to them."

Biting her lower lip, she confided.

"Actually, my surname was not Xiaolushan. When I was about three years old, my mother, who was also from a famous family, took me to remarry to Xiaolushan's family. Half a year after I was admitted to the hospital, my mother gave birth to me. My sister, without me, my father, mother, and sister had a pretty good ten years until I woke up.

I think I stole most of my mother's attention, my sister doesn't like me, and my father doesn't know what to do with my daughter who is not his own and has been lying in the hospital for more than ten years without much emotional foundation. , although they treat me mildly, it always makes me feel embarrassed, and seeing the three of them enjoying themselves, I feel that I am not superfluous......

In fact, my mother originally hoped that I could go to school, but I chose to live on campus and wanted to escape, and because of this reason, my relationship with my mother became estranged again. "

However, she longed for the warmth of her mother in her heart, so she probably yelled on the phone.

Subconsciously, Xiaolushan Qianxiang might want to use this method to attract more attention from her mother.

Blinking her eyes, she analyzed Xiaolushan Qianxiang's family environment and heart in her heart. Sayuri wanted to persuade her to face all this, but she thought that she didn't know too much about the specific situation, and the other party was too naive, so she rashly pushed her away. If she went home to deal with family relations, it might be counterproductive, so she only advised her that it would be better to speak her mind frankly, and then diverted the topic to other topics.

In this way, talking and laughing, until 01:30, the kaiseki cuisine is finally eaten cleanly. Although the amount of each dish is small, the variety of ingredients is rich and delicious. For the current Sayuri who does not eat much After all, he ate well and satiated, and returned to Tokyo in a luxurious Toyota Century.

And although Sayuri was satisfied, but after getting off the car, Xiaolushan Qianxiang, who was clamoring for Sayuri to take her to the supermarket after getting off the car, became sad after receiving another call from her mother.

"I'm sorry, a sister who has had a good relationship with me since I was a child came back from overseas today, and my mother asked me to accompany her to the party tonight, and now I'm going back home to prepare."

"It doesn't matter. We will meet again next Sunday. I will be taking a break that day. I will play with you all day. If Haruna allows, I will bring her to see you too."

"Really? I'm looking forward to meeting your lovely sister, Ms. Fukada, so see you next week."

"Then, please spend the next week with great anticipation~"

The end of a promise is always accompanied by the next promise. A few words coaxed the lost Chika Yama to smile, and watched Toyota Century disappear on the street corner and returned to the apartment. Take out the phone.

It's time for Miki to call.

My heart feels sorry for Meiji, a girl like a little white rabbit. Even during the period when Meiji went to visit relatives in China, Sayuri had daily contact with her, and because she knew the reason why Sayuri worked night shift at night, during this period, Mei Ji Du advances the call time, and will video chat with her for a while at about two o'clock every day, talk about the recent situation, talk about what interesting things happened, and express his affection to her.

Of course, Meiji didn't know that Sayuri worked in a public relations shop.

In this regard, Sayuri is not yet ready to confess, because Meiji is such a girl who loves the original owner so deeply, even if she is as smart as Sayuri, she doesn't know how to face the situation that may arise after confessing, and she has spoken countless times. He comforted himself that Meiji hadn't come back yet, so he waited until now.

[Those who once 栄えし are でも, must ずや decline えゆく (even if there is a moment of glory, they will eventually grow old)]

Just as she was thinking about something distressing, the phone rang. It was a passage from Ringo Shiina's "Queen of Kabukicho". As a song she heard on the day she first entered Kabukicho, Sayuri set it as a ringtone to commemorate.

When she heard the lyrics, Sayuri was stunned for a moment, and Sayuri looked at the phone in confusion, wondering why Meiji, who was usually on video, chose to make a call today, was it because she was not good enough to call, or was Meiji finally tired of her favorite Sayuri senior sister.

"Sayuri, guess where I am now~"

After answering the phone, Mikiman's proud and smiling voice came immediately.

Only slight white noise could be heard around Meiji, Sayuri couldn't guess it, so she said coquettishly.

"You don't video with me, how can I guess that the Celestial Dynasty is so big?"

"NONONO~, I am no longer in the Celestial Dynasty! The sky outside is thousands of miles away, and the clouds and the Pacific Ocean are under my feet. Hehe, I have to return to Japan early, but I have to attend the banquet held by my father tonight, and I will not be able to find you until tomorrow. …”
