Chapter 30 fourth quarter

In the end, Ayu finally compromised and decided to go to Ichimoya, because Kodaira told everything frankly. "So far I have sent a few girls to Shimao House, but, Miss Ayu, this is the first time I have met someone as stubborn as you." Xiaoping scratched his neck for the first time, complaining to Ayu.Afterwards, he took Ayu to a teahouse, ordered tea and glutinous rice dumplings, and persuaded Ayu to eat. "I'm not hungry." "Oh, don't say such stubborn words. I'm a little hungry, and I like the glutinous rice balls here very much. But, I'm embarrassed to eat it alone, so I want you to eat with me."

Xiaoping didn't lie the first time, he ate all the glutinous rice balls with relish.From what he said to the stern-faced Ayu, it turned out that Koheiji preferred desserts even though he could drink some wine.Ayu cursed in his heart, as far as bad guys are concerned, this is really outrageous. "I have to go to the agency." "Then you treat me as an agency, just listen to me." After Xiaoping finished speaking the first time, he told Ayu some inside information. "I am definitely not the kind of person who only does things with a clear conscience. I told you at that time that I can only live today by relying on my three-inch tongue. But, Miss Ayu, just like a smart What you said at that time, it is impossible for you to pretend to deceive Shimaoya, I am also very clear about this. However, in front of the owner of Sakuraya and his wife, I think it is better to say that, so that they are convinced that this is the case. It's a shame, or they'll go around shouting about it. That's not good."

"And then?" Ayu asked with a little interest. "What's the inside story? It's also fabricated, right?" Xiaoping laughed so hard that he almost choked. "You're a rough girl. Well, never mind." According to Koheiji, it was Kihei's idea to find someone to impersonate Suzu. "What did you say?" Ayou almost got angry. "Don't be kidding. How can there be such absurd things in the world?" "Oh, wait. Oh, wait." Xiaoping stretched out his hands for the first time to stop Ayu who was about to stand up. "You're really short-tempered. Listen to me carefully, and it's never too late to get angry afterwards."

He asked Ayu to sit down, ordered tea again, then said "Listen well", then leaned out and said: "The owner of Ichimoya, Kihei, came up with this idea to appease the proprietress, Asong. She has gone crazy since Ah Ling disappeared. For the past ten years, she has been living in a haze that we can't see. In the clouds and mist, occasionally it will suddenly return to normal, but it is very short-lived, and it will become abnormal immediately. Maybe it is better to live in the clouds and mist; in that world, you can forget about the death of your beloved only child."

Ayu reached out to pick up the teacup, drinking the cold tea. "How? Don't you feel very pitiful?" "I don't know." Ayu still turned his face away and said. "You don't need to work, and you can live just daydreaming every day. Isn't that kind of life like a paradise? I've never lived that kind of luxurious life, so I don't know." This time Xiaoping frowned and said: "You, you probably have a cruel nature." "That Mrs. Asong, if you have to work hard to make money today and have food tomorrow, that kind of leisure disease will be cured soon."

Ayu not only said this with his mouth, he was really angry.The other party is a rich lady boss, even if she is a little out of her wits, it doesn't matter, anyway, everyone will be rushing to ask for help. Xiaoping sighed again, and continued: "Oh, forget it. You listen to me first. Well, Mrs. A Song is fine when she lives in the mist. As I said just now, she will occasionally return to normal. At this time, it will be very troublesome; she will start looking for A Ling , When she can't find A-Ling, remembering that A-Ling has passed away, she will go crazy and want to die, I heard that she has stopped it in time at critical moments several times."

Xiaoping said "the result" for the first time, then adjusted his sitting posture, and said: "Ichimoya Kihei, who was at a loss, finally came up with an idea: if Ling was still alive, she should be about this age... In other words, find a girl who is about the same age as Ling and let her stay at home. Ah Song, how about it? Anyway, it only took two or three days for Ah Song to return to normal. During this period, he can always get away with it. Of course, in order not to make Ah Song feel that Ah Ling’s hands are so thick, or why she is wearing the same clothes. Wearing the same shabby clothes as a concubine, the girl must live the same life as Ah-Ling in her lifetime. Moreover, in order to deal with Ah-Song saying "A-Ling, let me practice the guzheng for me", even if it is a temporary cramming, she must to learn the full art."

What a jaw-dropping idea. "Then, the owner of Shimao House keeps repeating such things?" "Well, yes. Tried about three girls so far." "Won't that cost a lot of money?" "This money is nothing. They have a lot of property." In order to make the proprietress normal, doesn't it matter how much money is spent?Ayu was very disgusted with the owner of the city wool house who he would not meet. "Then, you don't need to find me at all, just let those girls continue to pretend?" Xiaoping shook his head once and said: "Those girls have their own parents and brothers and sisters. We can't keep them tied up in the hairy house in the city. The girl who pretended to be Ah Ling a few days ago was the daughter of a paper shop in Bakurocho. I was embarrassed to let her Stay in Shimaoya."

Ayu snickered and said: "Then why not just find a girl who has no relatives? Let her stay forever." Xiao Ping once clapped his hands with a bang. "That's right! You're right. But Miss Ayu, even though A Song's brain is abnormal, she hasn't completely forgotten her daughter's appearance. Find a girl with a completely different appearance, even if she is called A Song's mother. Useful. So, first of all, you need to find a girl with at least a similar appearance, but this kind of girl is not everywhere, and it is impossible to meet a girl who has no relatives by chance. No, seriously, Miss Ayu, you are a headache A girl who can meet both conditions at the same time."

Ayu remained silent, thinking to himself, so what? "Oh, Miss Ayu." Xiaoping said in a flattering tone. "Think about it, okay? Although it's a scam, the other party is happier after being cheated. If you cheat Ah Song, you're helping her. And it's not difficult. You can treat her as a different girl." Work, come to the city and work in a hairy house, okay? Boss Xibingwei has no intention of tying you up for the rest of his life. As long as you don't want to do it, you can resign at any time. At that time, he will give you a large gift money. In addition, Boss Kihei even said that if you have been staying in Shimaoya pretending to be Ah Ling, and someone comes to propose a marriage, he will be more than happy to help you get a dowry."

Ayu didn't respond.She silently considered the future. Going to be the only daughter of a tabi shop?To learn guzheng and flower arrangement?If the dead father heard this, what expression would he have? Ayu drank a big sip of tea, then bit into sticky glutinous rice balls, and when he barely swallowed the somewhat dry balls, Xiao Ping once laughed. "Promised? You promised to do it?" Ayu glared at him.The glutinous rice balls are not sweet at all.
