446 Fa's Parent's Birthday ① ~ Preparation below ~

From the day of the raid by the hungry Gibba until the end of the tea moon, the task of paving the way by the woods was to be stopped once.

As a result, as many as thirty people were injured, and they were once again to be discussed in terms of safety.

In the first place, they were going to steam back to that point wondering if dangerous places could be used as streets like that.

Regarding that, a settlement should have been reached "if you were in Totos' luggage truck, there would be no problem". If Totos, who pulled the luggage car, can make sure that the road is wide enough to run, it's a distance he can tread in three or four hours, so if he runs through without taking a break in between, he doesn't risk being attacked by Gibba.

So the problem was still regarding the continuation of the work.

This was also a tragedy because the frightened guards had irritated Giva to the point of oblivion, so if we had settled down and dealt with it, it would not have been such a commotion. Gibba can't leap higher than his own head, so if he retreats on a carrier, lumber, etc., and successfully uses the Gibba exclusion fruit given to him by the Sauti family, he should have gotten nothing.

Thus, the focus was on the mood of the guards.

For the first time, they encountered a fearful Gibba in the woods, completely captivated by fear.

Fortunately, although it was the dead who did not answer, as many as thirty human beings were to be hurt by just one giva. That fact shook them up.

Of course, if the noble side orders the continuation of the work, it is unacceptable to defy the guards. but if the same tragedy is repeated again, now it may be time to let the dead out. And when the guards panic, they can also allow the people of the North to escape without fulfilling their watch duties.

The people of the north were not disturbed, even in a place of disturbance.

On the contrary, it was they who eventually put Gibba to rest.

Such reports seemed to disturb the nobles so much.

So, it's a conclusion.

After five days of consultation, the site of the construction was also to be driven out by hunters by the woods.

He is neither a worker nor a watchman, but an escort who protects them.

If a hungry Gibba shows up, defeat it by whatever means you can. With that as his only job, it was decided that a hunter by the woods would be invited to the construction site.

"But if all those people were making a pretty noise, you wouldn't normally come by for a giva. In the meantime, it just so happens that the hungry Gibbs are losing their sanity and approaching, but I don't know if they're going to be the escorts."

Rudd-Lou and others were reputed as such.

But what they wanted was a sense of peace of mind. The noblemen offered him a great deal of gratuity to help the humans in the field get to work in peace.

"You have to stand in the rain from morning to night, right? I don't have a job like that. If I were you, I would never forgive you!

I guess many hunters felt the same way about Rudd-Lou, but this is a request for a job officially delivered by the name of Lord Marstein of Genos. As the people of the forest at the end of the people, I had no choice but to obey whenever possible.

"But we can't put the hunter's work behind us. I guess I'll have to assign that job to my family in the rest period."

The chiefs so decided.

So, which clan was now the period of rest - what three clans with Ravitz as their parent muscle.

Until the head of the Tea Moon, the northern clan was in the period of rest. Shortly after that, the Sung family became a period of rest, and the Ravits entered a period of rest for a few days.

"Well, if you can just stand there and get a bronze coin, there's no such easy story...... nonetheless, that's a stupid job"

The servant Day-Ravitz also said so, apparently.

Either way, this allowed all the personnel from the 10th to the half-month. It was expected that if it was midway through the red moon and the period of their rest was over, the order would turn around this time around Sauti.

"At this point, a copper coin or something like gratuity should be given to the entire family who did the job. People from other families don't do anything."

At Donda-Lou's suggestion, the honorarium was arranged as such.

I'm sure he insisted that if the Lew family were to take the job, it should be a shared property of the people by the woods.

Whatever, so everything finally fits in.

We were able to hear the progress of those stories sequentially from the people of Luu and Fou as we worked on our work in Accommodation Town as before.

"Damn, you've done me a lot of trouble. It's really annoying that we've been so busy preparing for the feast."

Rarely, Mother Meer Ray was so blurred.

In the last five days the chiefs have been very busy inviting themselves to the castle town or consulting with each other, but within that period included the birthdays of Donda-Lou, Rudd-Lou and Kota-Lou.

Donda-Lou in particular is the head of Luu's main house. That birthday had to be celebrated more than any other family.

But it is also now in the middle of the rainy season.

If it was meant to be, the feast would be executed using the square, but this is also difficult. Dinner was started early in the evening or so, and an anomalous style was adopted whereby family members and family members came to state their words of celebration at the after-dinner banquet.

"In a year when there is a Golden Moon, what's wrong? The end of the Tea Moon will be in the middle of the rainy season. Normally, you can use the Rigiri Square."

Speaking of which, this was the year the moon existed every three years. Otherwise, the story was that the rainy season would usually come after the red moon.

The main house of Lew was built, among other things, but still has a limited number of humans who can accommodate it at the very top. So I guess the Guests don't stay long, they come instead of going in. As for the Mia Ray mothers who entertain it, it was thought that they would bear a different hardship than the feast in the square.

But it is also a problem between the Lew family and their families.

This is Lew's home, where five birthdays have been set to continue standing recently, but I just listened to it based on people.

I was once invited as a guest on the birthday of Lara-Luu and Grandma Tito Min, but since then, the Luu family has been able to cook their own festive dishes. It's a little rusty, but the birthday is only celebrated among humans with blood edges.

Other than that, I was invited to Dan-Rutim's birthday party.

Dan-Rutim said, "We're looking forward to it next year! I laughed a lot, but I guess that was because of Dan-Rutim's big razor. In the months that followed, Gazran-Rutim and Ama Min-Rutim and others had also aged one by one, but I was never invited to the feast, and the kind of lesson that judged it" water-smelling "did not exist by the woods.

Close to home, Tool-Din and Mida and Zwei were also secretly finishing their birthdays. It also just so happens to be learned from public discourse and so on, it's not the kind of story that actively communicates to people in the other house in the first place.

Therefore, the only thing I should have weighed in was Ai-Fa and my birthday.

Thus the moon has finally reached the red moon.

At the same time as we celebrated the second half of the rainy season, I finally made it to the stage where I also celebrated the birthday of I-Fa.

◇

Pioneering work resumes, day ten.

The 10th of the Red Moon, raw by this woodland area by Ai-Fa.

Even that day, I was working in boarding town.

Oddly enough, the holidays were the day before that.

Of course it was possible to deviate from the holidays, but Ai-Fa had told me that it was "useless".

"If you could prepare a delicious dinner, that would suffice. Forced off the job, and there's nothing special to be done?

That was the solemn word of the parents.

Well, the birthday by the woods is really being carried out. Prepare a better meal than usual to deliver festive flowers from your family. Tell me, that's all we're talking about. I guess what matters is the feeling, not the form.

And I, as soon as I got into the red moon, had one consultation with Ai-Fa.

A birthday is something that should take place among human beings with blood edges. After thoroughly working on it, I suggested that we invite a guest this time.

"As for I-Fa, which would be preferable? I want to celebrate that day because I want it the most."

By "guests" I meant Limi-Lu and Grandma Ziba.

On his birthday last year, Ai-Fa seemed to regret badly that he had coldly driven Rimi-Lou back. Then I thought that by inviting Limi-Lu and the others, we could heal the hearts of both sides.

To my suggestion, I = fa became greatly annoyed.

"But... last year I drove you back unscathed, but I don't know if I should invite you as a guest or anything this year... wouldn't they think you're too selfish a person...?

"If it were Rimi-Lou, I wouldn't think of it that way. You'll be absolutely delighted."

"Hmmm... maybe that's true..."

I have been an eye-fa for a long time with perseverance lately, but all of that time I was starting to seem anxious like a child.

"So can you pass on that story from Asta to Rimi-Lou...? Still, in case Rimi-Lou looks disgusted, I don't want you to cover it up and tell me..."

"I hope it's okay. I'm worried about you."

Of course, Ey-Fa's worries ended empty-handed. The next day, when I told him that, Limi-Lu, he was surprised, but he was delighted.

"But is that okay? Because you want to spend your birthday alone with Asta, don't you?

"We're alone every night. You don't have to worry about that."

"Then I'll go! Ziva, the lady will be delighted!

That's how Rimi-Lou jumped to my chest, whispering into tears.

"That's what Asta told you, isn't it? That's the kind of personality I can't tell you from myself."

"Yeah. That's right, Rimi-Lou knows the character of Ai-Fa."

"You bet! He's my favorite friend!

That night, I tried not to cover up what I had experienced, but to tell Ai-Fa.

With his hands on his forehead, Ey-Fa snapped, deeply nagging, "Well..."

"If you didn't make Limi-Lu feel bad, I'm really glad.... it's Asta."

"Yeah."

"... I am deeply grateful for your realization"

Ey-Fa's voice was slightly trembling.

Maybe those eyes have tears in them too.

Pretending not to notice that, I just answered "yeah" again.

That is how I welcomed you, on that day.

Commerce itself dared, but just like the study group, we were to take a rest. When it is fixed, we will head to the settlement of Luu, where we will rendezvous with the Limi-Luu.

Only one condition had been granted by Donda-Lou in welcoming the eldest, Grandma Ziva, to Fa's house. It was to be accompanied by one man.

There will no longer be dangerous incidents or anything inside the settlement, but it still seems that involving the oldest and toddlers in the dinner of the extra house without offering is an act that is not in keeping with the forestside lesson. It's that there are some disciplined Ziza-Lou eyes, and I just had to acknowledge all this.

The man thus chosen is Rudd-Lou.

Well, the most fa house and itchy deeply manly in the Luu family is Rud-Luu or Sin-Luu. So Rud-Luu is a family living in the same house as the Limi-Luu people, so this would have been the best choice. Donda-Lou went out of his way to make that day a day of rest and free himself of Rud-Lou, so he couldn't even complain.

"Thanks for today, Asta... my wife is really happy..."

Grandma Ziva, who wrapped her rain gear around her and came out of the house with Rudd-Lou taking her hand, laughed gently at me as she said so.

There's a way back, so they're Lulu's luggage. It would not be painful to travel as much as this, since she was once a grandmother Ziba who had traveled to Dalaim and the town of Inn. Even from my eyes, the footprint felt lighter than before.

"Ma, I'm getting smaller in the corner so I don't get in the way. Expecting good food, Asta?

After stating so, Rudd-Lou settled on your stand.

It is to bring them back to the house of Zazafa.

When I sent the Tour-Dins back to Fa's house, there were many women in between. Those are the people who asked for a look for tomorrow.

"Welcome back, Asta. I've just cleared up my job."

"Thank you. It really helped."

I wanted to spend all of my time preparing dinner, so I asked them for a job earlier than usual.

The cooking work has already been completed and everyone is working on cleaning up after it. Even without the leaders Tour-Din and Yun Sudra, Fou's parents' depths seemed to be at the centre and did their job without delay.

"Sorry to bother you... oh well, it's a busy thing..."

And after a little delay, the old ladies of Ziva arrive at the same time.

People stopped working and looked back at you.

"Are you Ziba-Lou, the eldest of the Lou family? I never thought the day would come."

Fou's parents' wife bows her head in a flattering manner.

Grandma Ziva smiled quietly as Rimi-Lou removed the hood of the rain gear.

"Never mind such old age... please keep up the work..."

Each of the women thanked her and then let her resume her work as she was told.

The young ladies and others are eager to see Grandma Ziva in between. The title of oldest of the Lew family, of course, would have been rare in itself to see an elderly person so far. Tour-Din and Yun-Sudra had similar reactions when they first met Grandma Ziva.

"All right, here's the thing. Bye, Asta. We're going home with this."

"Yes. Thank you so much. Thank you again tomorrow morning."

"When the sun sets, I'll bring you that example."

It was the Ladies of the Run who said so.

They were them, ready for a surprise.

I smiled, "Yes," and dropped them off.

"Come on, then, let's get ready for dinner"

"Yeah! Let's make some delicious food!

Rimi-Lou, who was waiting for me, rushes over.

Dinner for Ai-Fa will be served by both of us. This would also mean that it was worthwhile to invite Limi-Luu.

"It starts with prepping under Hachi-chu! We don't have time, so we need to hurry and simmer Kimmus' bones!

It was now expected to be three and a half hours before sunset. It's a pretty tight schedule when you start where you take bone gala stock.

But all this, I couldn't have borrowed the other hand. We had to complete today's feast dish on our own.

"Ziba-Lou, are you sure you're not resting in your mother's house and you're okay? I don't think it'll get cold because I put fire in the kamado, but it won't be too cozy, will it?

"It's all right... I visited Fa's house because of it, so I want to let you bite that delight to the point of the mistletoe..."

Grandma Ziva was sitting back on a rug laid on the wall. Instead of removing the rain gear, he is weaving a shoulder strap he brought from the Lew family. The offering, Rud-Lew, was biting the yawn to death next to it.

From what I hear, this was the first time Grandma Ziva had visited Fa's house.

However old friends may be, the fact that the elders of the Lew family visit the houses of their youngest families in vain is nothing like a woodland lesson, and there have been some distance problems before. Fa's house and Lew's house take two hours back and forth on foot.

Grandma Ziva and Limi-Luu were only talking about getting to know Ai-Fa as they happened to be walking.

They went north from the house, and Ai-Fa went south from the house, and they said they were going to encounter them at the midpoint of your house.

Since then, when the old ladies of Ziba went for a walk, they have always headed north, and Ai-Fa has always headed south when training for tree crossing, consciously increasing the chances of accidental encounters and secretly spinning the edge.

There's not much to be said about what kind of interaction that was, but just imagining the still young Ey-Fa and Limi-Lu flinching like puppies made my chest warm.

"You said the Ziba-Lou guys only got to know Ai-Fa about six years ago, right?

"Oh......" Granny Ziba nodded when she asked as she knocked out Kimmus' bone gala with Limi-Lu.

"But it's been over six whole years... because I almost turned twelve, Ey-Fa, and I'm turning eighteen..."

"That means Rimi-Lou was two and Ziba-Lou was seventy-nine, right? Wow."

Two, eleven and seventy-nine. Normally, even if I knew him with this rash on his face, I wouldn't have quite built a friendship.

But I, Fa and I, were to enter into friendship, and even now, more than six years later, we care about you in this way.

"But just when I lost my father, I lost my ankle so badly... I couldn't stay with you when I had to be beside you the most..."

"That's all there is to it. I just happen to have overlapping bad luck."

"Yeah... but I've been having a hard time living by the woods since about that time... when I was in pain, I just had to suffer... I knew I couldn't regret it..."

"Because I'm sure Ai-Fa was in the same mood. If Ai-Fa was in good health, I'm sure he would have snuck into the Lou family and rushed to Ziba-Lou."

And it was this Limi-Luu who was coming and going between the house of Fa and the house of Luu instead of the two who couldn't do it.

Rimi-Lou, who was fighting with the ash juice that had just floated on the surface of the pan, looked back at Grandma Ziba with a grin.

"But now that we're better friends than we used to be, you're really glad! For two years of hard feelings, the woods gave us a broom!

"Oh, I might..."

Then Rudd-Lou, who stood looking bored next door, also hammered "So-so".

"Mostly, if you say who's wrong, the Sung family's bad, right? If those guys hadn't put on a funny little mess, I guess I wouldn't have thought about cutting off from the rest of us."

It is also, indeed, true.

And yet, if Ai-Fa hadn't stuck with Diga, he wouldn't have gotten caught in Donda-Lou's eyes, nor would he have been wishing for his dowry into Dalm-Lou. It was a negative chain that all I could say was that bad luck had called for bad luck, because in one case I - Fa - was increasingly feeling like we had to distance ourselves from the Lou family.

"So the Diggas were properly punished, that's enough! Don't say this sad thing about old times, either, Ziva woman!

"Really, Rimi and Rudd are right... I've been showing young people the right way lately..."

Grandma Ziva was grinning with her face sneezed.

I also don't know how many times I've been helped by the innocence and frankness of Limi-Luu or Rud-Luu.

"Speaking of which, when is Ziba-Lou's birthday? You haven't had your birthday since you got to know me, have you?

I tried to change the subject in order to break the moist air, too.

"I'm next month's Zhu Moon... but Raina's with me..."

"Next month, the rainy season is dawning. Will we celebrate grandiose after all?

"Well... last year or before that, I lost my temper to live... because in the first place, it seemed like I couldn't even eat properly..."

"But you were celebrating in the square long ago! Now that the Ziva lady can eat a lot of delicious food, let's all get together again and celebrate!

"... so if everyone enjoys it, the lady's not happy either..."

"You've decided to have fun with that! I couldn't even make my father's birthday grand this year, so let's make a fuss about it until then!

Joining up to Rudd-Lou, the air on the spot was full of energy and vitality at once.

Somehow, it is in the same mood that the large family, the Lou family, is giving us a refreshment on vitality.

Just spending time alone with Ey-Fa, I can get a full feeling, but celebrating Ey-Fa's important day with everyone like this should also be a rare and happy thing.

With that in mind, I decided to start preparing for my next task.
