The Wonderful Daily Life of Nogizaka

Ikuta's mother is a standard image of a noble lady. Her speech is gentle and kind. She always smiles when she meets everyone, giving people a feeling of spring breeze. This is obviously different from her daughter who is a little natural and has a slightly strange world view.

Differently, at first glance, Baiyunshan had to wonder if there was something wrong with the genes, or was it inherited from Ikuta's father, whom he had never met before?

But these doubts were easily solved when the mother in front of her was talking about some complicated questions to her daughter. Judging from her attitude of breaking the casserole and asking the truth, she was indeed her biological child.

Afterwards, President Hua himself answered this question, claiming that the reason why he was like this was because he had been taught since he was a child to ask questions when he had questions, and these were undoubtedly influenced by his mother.

After sending away Huahua, who was extremely energetic at night, the atmosphere in the car became noticeably quieter.

Xiao Asuka did not deliberately return to the back seat, but lay on the car window and watched Baiyunshan send Erika Ikuta home, and then return and start again.

The familiar sound of the engine sounded again.

It could be seen that the child was indeed tired, so Baiyunshan did not intend to disturb her, but wanted her to take advantage of this time to have a good rest, so she kept silent and even made careful movements to avoid making any unnecessary noise.

He sent it out to avoid disturbing her, but little Feiniao took the initiative to talk to him.

"Baiyun, where are you going later?"

"Me? I'll take you back later. If there's nothing unexpected, I'll go home." Baiyunshan looked ahead and didn't correct the little bird who ran out again and forgot the honorific. He concentrated on driving the car and answered.

her inquiry.

"Baiyun will have to clean up the house when he gets back later. Aren't you tired?" Xiao Feiniao said abruptly.

"It's okay. I'm not like you. I'm not a child. It's okay to move around. I don't get tired so easily."

Xiao Feiniao hesitated for a moment, turned to the car window, and quietly observed Baiyunshan's expression through the glass window with clear reflection in the dark night, and whispered: "I'm sorry, Baiyun...Sang, I'll give you a little extra today."

After going through so much trouble, not only did I have a barbecue, I even promised to help with the cleaning but didn’t do it. It’s really bad——”

Baiyunshan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then chuckled, and took the time to rub her little head, and said: "Forget it, what is there to apologize for? It's not a big deal, I'm very happy that you can come.

Besides, Fukawa, Takayama, and Hashimoto have already said similar things before you, so there is no need to apologize again."

Xiao Feiniao was startled and turned to look at him in surprise: "Hey, Nanamin and the others have already apologized?"

Baiyunshan nodded lightly, and silently raised the corner of his mouth on the side that Xiao Feiniao could not see, and said: "Yes, although everyone seems not to care, they actually keep it in their hearts. Well, they are all very gentle.

Where are people! Haha, of course, you are too, Asuka."

Although Xiao Feiniao still pretended not to care on her face, her heart was as sweet as honey, and she whispered in a low voice: "Isn't Baiyun Sang the same?"

Talking to himself, he couldn't help but smile on his face.

Baiyunshan didn't hear her murmur clearly. He tilted his head slightly and asked in confusion: "What did you say?"

"No, no."

Xiao Feiniao quickly waved her hands in denial shyly, then changed the topic and talked about other things.

"What movies do you like to watch, Baiyun-san?"

"Well... I like watching the "Saw" series recently. I find it very interesting."

"Hey~ But didn't you hear that it was very bloody? My classmates in the class used to talk about it. It is said that we are not allowed to watch it at our age!"

"Well, Baiyun-san is an adult! Of course you are much more receptive than Asuka. It's best not to watch at your age. If you watch too much, you won't even be able to eat dinner."

"What, is it that powerful? I don't believe it!"

"What's so unconvincing about this? Oh, I forgot. As for food, you should be able to eat it even if you watch the most horrific movie. The bloody scenes are already a meal, so you do have the right to be unconvinced."

"Hmph~ I can't watch it anyway. What kind of idol is he who likes to watch bloody movies, right? You've never heard of this kind of idol, right?"

"Haha, who knows what will happen in the future..."

...

The two of them chatted all the way, the atmosphere was relaxed and happy, and Xiao Feiniao's spirit seemed to be much better, and he no longer yawned frequently.

Ten minutes later, the Saito family also arrived.

After sending the jumping little bird off the bus, Baiyunshan once again saw the distinctive mother of the bird. Since the little bird was injured, he came more frequently and often brought other members to visit her.

, so the relationship with the parents has become relatively familiar, and is no longer as strange and polite as before - of course, Asuka's mother is a very cheerful person, and most people don't feel too much ordinary in front of her. Born and raised in Japan

People are polite.

Mother Feiniao took her daughter back, thanked Baiyunshan, and then lovingly said some gentle words to her daughter, and then led her into the house.

Before leaving, I did not forget to remind my daughter to say goodbye.

"Goodbye Baiyun-san——" Little Asuka waved her little hand cutely.

"Ah, see you tomorrow, Asuka."

Baiyunshan said goodbye to the little flying bird, then politely nodded and waved to the smiling mother flying bird, and got into the car again.

But he was not in a hurry to leave.

The cold street lights hanging high next to the alley are much brighter than the bright moon in the sky. The lazy brilliance shines on the windshield above Baiyun Mountain like a frost shadow, making his shadow blurry and imprinted on it.

On the seats in the back row, the refracted light seemed to have a slight chill of early spring.

One or two people could not be seen on the road, but subtle voices could be heard coming from the houses on both sides. Occasionally, one or two laughters and dogs barking, playing and talking in the courtyard were heard, which was extremely ordinary.

Baiyunshan closed his eyes slightly and listened for a while. Among these voices, there were those of the elderly and those of children, as well as the nagging of housewives and the deep complaints of working fathers. They were not complicated but very real, with a strong flavor of life.

Every word and every sentence is ordinary.

But these ordinary words seem to have a strange magic power. The sound seems to be wrapped in the smell of steamed rice that has just been opened, the faint smell of oil smoke wafting from the kitchen, and the smell of shampoo after taking a bath, lingering.

By his ears and the tip of his nose, he was in trance for a long time.

He pressed his arms quietly on the steering wheel, lowered his head slightly, feeling the atmosphere, seeming to be longing for something, but also seeming to be escaping.

A smile appeared on his face unconsciously.

"Bah!"

A few minutes later, he was awakened when his elbow accidentally pressed on the horn and a whistle sounded. He came to his senses and silently fastened his seat belt, then started the engine.

He took one last look at the closed door of Saito's house. On one side of the door, golden light shone from the window edge. Although it was not clear through the glass, it was bright enough.

He stepped on the accelerator and drove away.

This is the smell of home. Although it is warm, it does not belong to him.

And he was about to go home.
