The Journey of Finding My Mother and Me

For Ning Hai and other girls, there are too many places in this villa that have not been figured out, not to mention the arrangement, even the fried eggs and rice porridge this morning are the recipes that Ning Hai came up with after checking the remaining ingredients himself.

"I have to go out to buy rice today," Ning Hai said to Noshiro, "I used the last bit of rice to make porridge, and now there is no more rice in this villa."

After all, Chitose and Chiyoda only have two ship girls, and their daily food reserves cannot be equivalent to 30 people—according to Ning Hai's estimation, if the remaining rice is only eaten by Chitose and the two of them, they should be able to eat it for a week .

But if 30 people eat, they can only cook porridge.

After thinking about it for a while, Noshiro said, "It's not just rice, you should also buy a few more servings of other ingredients."

"Yes... But what to buy, you have to go to shopping malls, supermarkets and open-air markets on the island to have a look, and then make a decision."

"Huh?" Noshiro blinked.

The ingredients are very important, unless you decide to eat in restaurants outside during this time, otherwise, it is better to prepare this kind of thing as soon as possible.

After all, with the current level of excitement in Ouyu City, if you wait too long, some rare ingredients may be out of stock.

"But you still have to shop around to see how you can save money," Ning Hai said seriously, "You can't spend any wronged money."

This is thrifty housekeeping.

Ning Hai is very serious about this.

This……

Noshiro is a little puzzled by Ninghai's diligence and thrift. The port area is not short of the money now... Compared with saving the money, Noshiro values ​​the quality of the ingredients more. As long as the food is fresh enough and good enough, even if it is a little expensive, he can accept it.

After all, among the people who enjoy these things, there is the commander... I don't want the commander to eat bad things.

But Noshiro didn't refute Ning Hai. After all, Ning Hai's starting point was essentially for the port area, so she changed the topic very delicately and said, "Speaking of which, when do you plan to buy ingredients?"

"Huh? It's fine if we go in the morning."

"But in the morning, the commander will take you to a nearby yukata specialty store to order yukatas... The work of buying ingredients may have to be handed over to someone else."

When eating and drinking last night, Chen Su mentioned that neither he nor Feiju Sakura Jianniang had bathrobes, and after hearing what Chen Su said, Chitose immediately patted his chest, saying that he could just leave this matter to himself.

"I know several owners of yukata specialty stores," Chitose said seriously, "Tomorrow morning I will take Commander and you guys to buy yukatas!"

This was also the reason why Chen Su kept emphasizing that there were still things to do during the day last night—even though Chitose was a guarantee, it was better to go to the yukata shop earlier.

After all, besides my group, there must be many people in Ouyu City who want to buy yukatas, and there are so many people in my group, if I go late, I may not be able to come back until evening.

"Well," Ning Hai sighed when Noyo mentioned this matter, and said weakly, "Actually, I don't want to buy a yukata... It's just to attend a festival, and it's fine to wear ordinary clothes, so why buy a yukata Ah, isn't this a waste of money..."

For Ninghai, which upholds the concept of diligence and frugality, saving money is not as important as the atmosphere.

Noshiro, who listened to Ning Hai's thoughts, shook his head, smiled lightly and sighed. Although everyone in the port area has their own ideas, in the final analysis, only the commander can make the decision.

Among other things, Ning Hai had already thought about it to such an extent, and he didn't choose to refuse to buy a bathrobe.

After all, this was Chen Su's arrangement.

Thinking of this, Noshiro's thoughts couldn't help drifting to the scene when the festival officially started a few days later. He was wearing a red yukata, holding hands with the commander, eating apple candy while walking on the street under the night...

Thinking about it makes people look forward to and shy.

The corner of Noshiro's mouth raised unconsciously.

And at this moment, the kitchen door was slammed open again.

Ping Hai rubbed his sleepy eyes, and walked in expressionlessly: "Sister, I'm here..."

…………

After breakfast and a series of preparations, Chen Su took his daughter out.

Of course, it was not that there were no girls left in the villa. Girls who already had bathrobes like Canglong, Feilong, Zhuifeng and Ruoye naturally stayed in the villa and did not go out with them.

Noshiro, Chikuma, Mikasa, and Kashino took on the heavy responsibility of purchasing ingredients.

"The owner of this yukata shop is a free ship girl," Chiyoda smiled and introduced to Chen Su who was walking beside her as she led the way. "The training level is around 20, and she was helped by Chitose and me before... If we buy yukata from her, we can definitely get a discount."

"Of course, if this yukata shop doesn't work, we can take a few more steps and go to another one... The owner of that yukata shop is also Jian Niang, and I have a pretty good relationship with me."

"In addition, there is a yukata brand store nearby. The person in charge of the store is a very friendly human girl... Commander, if you want to buy famous brands, you can go there directly."

"In addition, there is a small shop here. The owner is an old lady... I think the quality of her bathrobes is the best in the area, but the overall store is too small, and it certainly cannot meet the needs of so many of us..."

Chitose babbled and introduced it to Chen Su for a long time, while Chen Su nodded while listening, expressing that he remembered it.

There are enough yukata shops in Ou City.

Chitose just introduced a yukata shop that his group can walk to.

It can be seen that the Spring Cherry Blossom Festival is really lively.

It's just eight o'clock in the morning, most of the tourists in Ouyu City have just woken up, and there are not many people on the street, so the mighty team of Chen Su and his party are particularly conspicuous in the sunlight.

"commander?"

Passers-by quickly guessed Chen Su's identity, and the way they looked at him gradually changed from curiosity to friendliness and even admiration.

Commander, you are very respected.

Chen Su is now somewhat immune to this kind of gaze. He turned his head, looked at the girls laughing and playing behind him, and said, "Be careful, don't run on the road."

There are a few children here, which is really not reassuring.

The group soon arrived at the first store introduced by Chitose.As Chitose said, the owner of this shop is a ship girl with a training level of around 20.

When she saw Chitose who was walking at the front of the line, she was sitting behind the counter looking silly in the small mirror in her hand, she immediately stood up and greeted her: "Senior Chitose, come... come..."

This is, what is the situation? !

The smile on Jian Niang's face froze, and she didn't realize until she stood up that it wasn't just Chitose who had helped her, but also a huge group of people who came to her small shop at this moment.

Happened together?

Uh, the way they are talking and laughing doesn't look alike... so they really came together? !

The store owner, Jian Niang, who had never received such a large team, froze in place. After a few minutes of stunned, she put on a smiling face, walked forward, greeted Chitose, and said, "Senior Chitose, why did you come to me? What about here?"

Moreover, he brought so many guys with terrifying training speed in one breath...

She could tell at a glance that the ones following Chitose were all ship girls, and they were the kind of ship girls that she couldn't tell how much she had trained—in other words, each one was stronger than herself.

Being able to take so many ship girls in one go... this person should be the commander, right?

The store owner Jian Niang looked at Chen Su who was walking in the front, nodded slightly, and already had a guess in her heart.

I just don't know what kind of relationship he has with Senior Chitose.

Just when she was thinking about how to ask about this matter so as to satisfy her curiosity and not be rude, Chitose suddenly spoke and introduced with a smile: "This is my commander."

She had helped the shopkeeper's wife before, and hoped that she would get a discount today, so she revealed Chen Su's identity from the very beginning.

"Your... Senior Chitose, you said this is... I understand, hello, welcome to the yukata shop here, Mr. Commander, I will give you a [-]% discount for your consumption today!"

The store owner Jian Niang first showed a shocked expression, and after looking carefully at Chen Su for a long time, her face gradually recovered, and even finally, she showed a friendly smile and gestured to warmly invite Chen Su and the people behind him. The girls go into the store.

Um?this reaction...

It's a bit beyond my expectation.

Chen Su raised his eyebrows, he thought this girl would say a famous line like "Senior Chitose, you actually joined the port area" or "Senior Chitose, have you been snatched away?".

Unexpectedly, she was so indifferent.

And she was shocked at the beginning, it seems that she was only shocked by my appearance, not because Chitose had a commander... From this point of view...

Chen Su turned his body sideways to let the girls behind him enter the shop, turned his head to look at Chitose, and asked, "Chitose, have you told the lady owner about me?"

"That's not true," Chitose smiled lightly and shook his head, "It's just that Chiyoda and I didn't hide the identity of the ship girl in Minato... As for the rest, I didn't say anything."

Actually there is nothing to say.

For Chitose and Chiyoda, Chen Su three years ago really didn't have much to say.

It's not impossible to say things like your own commander is the best in the world, and your own commander is the most handsome in the world, but after all, it's just a simple sentence or two, and it can't start any topic.

There is nothing that can really open up the topic, such as [what happened between me and the commander] that is worth talking about.

After all, neither Chitose nor Chiyoda had anything worth remembering with Chen Su three years ago—joined Minato, went out, served as a secretary ship, fell in love with the commander, went out, fell in love with the commander completely, left the secretary ship, and stayed in the dormitory all day doing nothing.

There are many ship girls in the port area, and the process of getting along with the commander is the same. Chitose and Chiyoda compared side by side for a long time, but they didn't find anything special about their two sisters.

But who said that plainness is not true.

My two sisters fell in love with the Commander after getting along with each other over time!

I like his daily silence, I like his liveliness when he pokes; I like his calmness when he arranges an attack, I like his joy when he checks the resources in the port area; I like his cheering when he defeats a powerful enemy, and I like his calmness when he defeats ordinary enemies.

Rain or shine, the commander is there.

My own love is also there.

After three years, the commander reappeared. Although his personality has changed compared to three years ago, no matter how he changes, the commander is still a commander. What I like is the commander himself.

This will not change.

And compared to three years ago, the current commander is likely to leave memories for himself that are worth showing off with others...

For example, the upcoming spring festival.

Although Chitose didn't say anything, he was always looking forward to it in his heart, hoping that he and Chen Su could create unique memories that belonged only to the two of them at this festival.

This is a rare opportunity!

Thinking of this, Chitose smiled lightly, looked at the store owner Jianmao standing in front of him, and said, "You are not kind, why did you get a [-]% discount? There are so many shipmaids in our port area who come to buy yukata... [-]% off, what do you think?"

"...Are you here to buy yukatas?"

The owner of the shop was stunned. She had never joined the port area, and the way of getting along in the port area was only on paper. She never expected that so many ship girls would come to buy bathrobes.

I thought there were only two or three ship girls, or only the commander himself wanted to buy it... I didn't expect so many people to buy it?

The store owner, Jian Niang, was thinking quickly, and she quickly realized that this was a rare and big deal. In addition, she had received help from Chitose before, she made a decisive decision, grinned, and said: "Okay! [-]% off, [-]% off! My No problem!"

"Yeah, that's good!"

Chitose showed a satisfied smile.

She turned to look at Chen Su who was standing beside her, smiled lightly and stretched out her hand, saying, "Commander, it's a [-]% discount, this is a rare opportunity."

Chen Su blinked.

So?

He didn't understand Chitose's meaning.

And Chitose held his hand, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, my yukata just happens to be a bit old, and I need to buy a new one... Commander, it's rare to get [-]% off, and I want to buy a yukata too."

"But I'm not sure what kind of yukata to buy... So, Commander, can you please come with me and help me refer to it?"

Chitose smiled and sent a sincere invitation.

Her eyes were full of anticipation.

229. Dafeng: What Ring of Oath?

Before coming to this world, Chen Su, as a perennial solo Earth OL player, actually had no experience in buying clothes—especially in real stores.

As a single male office worker, he doesn't need too many clothes. A few shirts of ordinary styles are enough for his daily life.

Even if he needs to buy clothes, he is too lazy to go out and directly opens various online shopping apps, searches lightly, checks the prices and reviews, and places an order directly without hesitation.

It wasn't until after coming to this world that Chen Su started to buy clothes in offline stores, and only then did he begin to understand what [shopping] is.

From Cleveland and Quincy at the beginning to Chitose now, Chen Su is almost familiar with this set of procedures... Although she still feels that shopping is a troublesome thing, Chen Su is quite patient about it and never Will complain or write emotions such as irritability on the face.

"Commander, what do you think of this one?"

Chitose wore a purple bathrobe with white butterflies as the main body, walked up to Chen Su, walked around, and asked with a chuckle.

Her long wine-red hair spun along with her body, and a faint fragrance floated into Chen Su's nose quietly.

The scent of this shampoo is quite nice...

After Chen Su was in a trance for a moment, he nodded and said with a smile: "I think it's okay, it's quite suitable for you, Chitose."

"How does that compare to the one just now?"

"It's all good. After all, Chitose, you are so beautiful, you look good in anything you wear."

Chen Su said with a smile.
