Travel through the world of Hayao Miyazaki anime

Martha is gone after all, Sophie, as the eldest daughter, is going to inherit the hat shop after all, and then it will be Leddy’s turn.

Leddy seemed much calmer, and he didn’t have to go through the dangerous moving castle of Hal, and the place she was going was in the town of Ziping.

The Ceselli cake shop is flat in the central market square of the town, and Sophie’s hat shop is also on a street near the market square, and the two sides are so close that there is no need to hire a car.

After Leddy had prepared his luggage, he hired a porter, who put all of Leddy’s luggage on the wheelbarrow he was pushing and transported it to Cecilli’s cake shop for Leddy, which was not expensive, only for sixpence.

As for Leddy himself, he calmly followed the porter and set off towards the Cecilly cake shop together.

After arriving at Cecilly Cake Shop, Leddy’s heart was still apprehensive, and he immediately relaxed, Mrs. Ceselli is very friendly, his cake shop is very large, there are many apprentice employees in the shop, after learning that Leddy will arrive today, the organization of a warm welcome, so that Leddy felt flattered for a while.

Originally, she was slightly more dissatisfied with her mother arranging for him to come here as a labor cake apprentice.

Especially the male employees in the Ceselli cake shop, their eyes lit up and they were happy about Leddy’s arrival.

Because Leddy’s appearance is very outstanding, in the entire Ziping Town, it is definitely the top kind, and these rough fat gouaches in the cake shop are simply not comparable.

Some male apprentices had been pursuing some female apprentices in the shop, and when he saw Leddy coming, he made up his mind to give up the female apprentices he had been pursuing and set himself a new goal.

Leddy and everyone thanked each other, introduced each other, and under the leadership of Mrs. Cecilly, came to their own dormitory, and then immediately wrote a short letter for the porter waiting at the door to bring back when he returned, which was nothing more than to say goodbye.

On the other hand, Stephen Jones felt that he was really lucky, originally thought that he would need to rely on his own to hike to Howl’s Moving Castle, but he didn’t expect to let himself encounter a hitchhiker, coupled with the pleasant scenery around, Stephen Jones couldn’t help but hum a song.

The driver who rushed the car kept frowning, looking around nervously, and his eyes did not even dare to blink, which caused him to be tired all the time, and the blood in his eyes came out.

Sitting in the carriage, Martha usually quarrels with her second sister Leddy, but she is a shy girl, and when she meets strangers, Martha always behaves very introverted, just like a good girl.

Her heart was also very nervous, and she pursed her mouth and was silent all the way, although she was curious about Stephen Jones, but did not take the initiative to speak.

The coachman, and Martha, after hearing the song hummed by Stephen Jones, they all subconsciously relaxed, and the coachman’s eyes blinked a few times, and covered his eye surface with a layer of tears again, easing the fatigue of his eyes.

Martha also let out a soft breath.

Hurrying in silence while listening to songs to odd tunes hummed by Stephen Jones.

At first, the coachman and Martha listened to these strange tunes from another world hummed by Stephen Jones, and felt very uncomfortable, like people who have been listening to opera all the time suddenly hearing modern pop music.

But gradually, they felt that Stephen Jones hummed, and the melody of the song was very characteristic, and there was a feeling that the more they listened, the better it sounded.

“Who the hell is he, and how come I’ve never heard this song?” Martha thought strangely in her heart.

The coachman asked directly curiously: “This little young master, what song are you humming?” I’ve never heard it before, and it feels weird. ”

“Yes, it’s normal that I haven’t heard it, because I wrote this song.” Stephen Jones replied shamelessly.

“It turned out to be so, I didn’t expect that the little young master still has this kind of talent, if the little young master goes to the Kingsbury Grand Opera House to hold a concert, it will definitely civilize the entire English Kingdom.” The coachman said with a smile.

“Huh? Kingsbury Grand Opera? Stephen Jones was stunned for a moment and asked rhetorically.

This is still the first fresh word Stephen Jones heard, I didn’t expect that this world also has an opera house, and I will spread my songs from another world, see this world spread, I didn’t expect that there was this kind of operation, it was quite six.

“Yes, all the princes and nobles who go to the Kingsbury Grand Opera House or some wealthy people, if the young master’s song is recognized by them, it is indeed easy to become famous in the entire English kingdom and even the whole world.”

The coachman said that, he just thought that Stephen Jones was indeed very good, but she had not been to the Grand Opera House herself, and she did not think that Stephen Jones would be successful after really entering the Grand Opera House, just a casual nice word.

If Stephen Jones actually went to the Kingsbury Opera one day and it was a huge success, the coachman himself would be the first to be shocked.

Martha sitting in the carriage heard the conversation between the coachman and Stephen Jones, and thought of Stephen Jones wearing gorgeous clothes, standing on the podium and singing, and then the princes and nobles on the seats below fell for it one by one, and Stephen Jones’s whole image suddenly became tall.

The simple Martha did not hear the coachman’s words as daily good words that should not be sinned, because she also felt that the song hummed by Stephen Jones was indeed very good, and maybe one day it would really develop.

Thinking of this, Martha has a more favorable impression of Stephen Jones, and he secretly made up his mind that before separating, he must talk to Stephen Jones, so that he can leave a good impression in his heart and lay a foundation for his future self.

However, the introverted Martha did not speak after all, and after Stephen Jones arrived at his destination, after saying goodbye to the coachman and Martha sitting in the carriage, he was about to walk towards his destination.

For the coachman and Martha, their luck was simply too good, because they did not encounter Howl’s moving castle, presumably went elsewhere.

Howl’s Moving Castle walks around the Ferding Valley all day, and the people of Ziping Town once thought that the final destination of the Moving Castle was to invade Qiping Town, but the Moving Castle never went down, and the bottom position, that is, halfway up the mountain, would go back again, and so on.

The coachman looked at Stephen Jones, who was leaving, and kindly reminded: “Little young master, where are you going?” The direction you are going is near the moving castle of the evil wizard Hal, it’s too dangerous, don’t go there. ”

“It’s okay, don’t worry, I’ll just take a look around and leave here soon.” Stephen Jones waved his hand and said without replying.

“This… Well, take care. “The coachman whipped the horse, and the horse cried out in pain, and immediately ran along the mountain road, because the coachman was afraid and did not know when Howl’s moving castle appeared, he just wanted to leave as soon as possible and reach his destination as quickly as possible.

Martha lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at Stephen Jones, who was fading away, and secretly made up a certain determination in her heart.

Sophie and Stephen Jones’ family situation, to some extent, is similar, staying in the hat shop since childhood, so they are very familiar with the business of the hat shop, such as where the raw materials for making hats are purchased, how the hats are made, and the workers in the store also know each other, and they stay to inherit the hat shop and say that they want to be a hat apprentice, but in fact, parents have nothing to hand over to Sophie.

Making hats is not a particularly difficult skill, and Sophie only took a day to get started.

Sophie, as the lady of the hat shop, did not work as a shopping guide in the store like his mother Fanny, introducing hats to customers who came to buy hats, and being a shopping guide was obviously much more interesting than sitting in the back of the store all day long.

It’s not that Sophie doesn’t want to, but Sophie, really not very good at selling hats, even if her mother told Sophie some trading skills, such as Fanny said, if you sell hats, you must first try on a hat that is obviously not suitable for the customer, and then try on a suitable hat for the customer, so that it is a sharp contrast, the customer can quickly make up his mind about what hat he wants to buy, otherwise, if you put the right hat on the customer at the beginning, After choosing a hat with a similar style, there will not be so much surprise, and there will be hesitation to choose it, and both sides will lose time.

Sophie is a very honest person, it is easy to talk to customers who buy hats and say something from the heart, and some defects in hats will truthfully show that this is really not a quality that a business person should have.

Therefore, the most suitable for Sophie is that most of the employees in the store are now sitting at the back of the store making hats, but most of the workers who make hats in the store are elderly middle-aged women, young girls, and young people can’t bear this boring life.

Sophie could endure loneliness at that time, and staying in the back of the store all day to make her own hats did not make her feel that it was a torture, but because the people in the store were all elderly middle-aged women, there was an obvious generation gap with Sophie’s age, plus these hat-making employees in the store would not say anything because of the identity of the future heir of Sophie’s hat shop, so Sophie usually did not talk to them.

It’s silently making hats all day long, which is very lonely.

The only thing that Sophie found interesting was that her hat shop was separated from the workshop behind it by a wooden wall, and the sound insulation was poor, and Sophie could always hear the customers gossip about each other as they chatted.

For example, where did Hal’s moving castle go, how amorous the mayor was when he was young, but when it comes to Hal, everyone will subconsciously suppress their voices as if Hal will be invisible, just around them, obviously, people’s fear of Hal has not dissipated.

“You say, the Wasteland Witch is the most evil witch in our English Kingdom, and the Hal Wizard is the most evil male witch in our English Kingdom, the two of them are simply a pair made in heaven, and if they are mixed together, it will be simply terrible.”

“You can pull down! Hal wizards love young girls’ hearts, as well as souls, Wasteland witches to their age, how old do you say? You can be your grandmother, how can a Hal wizard look at it? ”

“Hahahaha.”

“By the way, Jane Farrell heard that she had done a very exaggerated hairstyle, like boar hair, and heard that she was going to Kingsbury recently, but she was worried that she would be favored by the Hal wizard, so she found a lot of mercenaries and planned to let them escort her.”

“Hahaha, this is really laughing to death, Jane Farrell also does not look at what virtue she has? Seeing her appearance, I felt that Hharus would definitely not look at him squarely, and what mercenaries should he find to protect. ”

Jane Farrell this person, Sophie has also heard of it, is also a relatively famous woman in the town, this person is a widow, and she looks quite beautiful, which is bad, I don’t know how many men in the town are worried about Jane Farrell, or they may be jealous of Jane Farrell’s beauty

Anyway, the women in Qiping Town, especially those with families, hate Jane Farrell the most, including Sophie’s mother Fanny.

Sophie’s heart silently mourned for her, and then there was a cranky thought, Sophie thought of his sister Martha, and did not know whether it was safe along the way.

After that, Sophie thought of Stephen Jones again, wondering what happened to him now?

On the other side, after getting down from the carriage for a while, Stephen Jones soon saw Howl’s moving castle standing quietly on the top of a certain hill not far away, his feet firmly grasping the top of the mountain.

But to see is to see, to visually measure the distance, and then compare the rugged mountain road, it is estimated that it will take at least half an hour to get there.

Stephen Jones looked at the sky and decided to hurry up and act quickly.

The mountain road taken by Stephen Jones is the most rugged section of the entire Ferding Valley, this road Stephen Jones has never walked, originally thought it would be difficult to walk, but as time passed, he actually felt not tired at all, walking feet are not tired, but occasionally need to grasp the rock wall of the hand is tired.

Every time he walked and lifted his feet, Stephen Jones felt that someone had lifted him, so he didn’t have the slightest effort to get up.

Stephen Jones didn’t know why, thinking that his feet were more muscular, so he was suitable for long journeys.
