So, sunset...
Ey-Fa took the second guitar home safely, and we were able to make a celebratory dinner.
Moreover, since Ludo Lou also helped Ai Fa, the demolition work was completed without delay.
I, Grandma Ziba, Limi Lou, Rud-Lou, Sallis Lan-Fow and Aim-Fow - seven people from three houses sit around dinner. Recently, it was a façade house with more opportunities to welcome guests, but today it was still filled with special air.
"Congratulations to Fa's parents, Ey-Fa, on their nineteenth birthday. I hope you will continue to live as a shameless parent to Mr. Fa and guide your family."
This is the second time I have spoken this word, but I am still unfamiliar with such congratulations.
Still, I was able to deliver a congratulatory message with all my thoughts for the most important person in the world.
Ey-Fa nodded, "Mmm", while keeping a solemn look on her face and still seeming to tickle somewhere.
"Now, let's give the blessed flowers to our parents.... congratulations Ey-Fa."
I decorated the blue Mizora Ring picked at the edge of the Lou settlement forest on the temples of Ai-Fa.
After all, Ai Fa has a solemn face, but the blue eyes that stare at me very close are very gentle.
Well, thank you very much, guests.
Grandma Ziva dedicates the red Mizola to Ai-Fa's left chest.
Ludo Lou handed over the white Mizola to Limi Lou because he could not touch her. Limi Lou, along with the yellow misola she prepared herself, threw it around the waist of Ai-Fa.
Later, Sallis Langford pulled Aim-Fow's hand and approached Ai-Fa. She was preparing a blue flower whose name I didn't know, and she put it right under my dedicated Mizola.
"I picked this myself."
Aim-Fow's small hands are adorned with even smaller white watermelon flowers.
Ai-Fa lowered her head towards Aim-Fow, smiling as if she had never seen it.
Aim-Fow was serious and put a small flower right next to the flowers of me and Sarris Lan-Fow.
With the addition of Fow's mother and child, Ai Fa's figure is more ornate than last year.
Giving flowers to someone other than my family was never in line with the customs of the forest - but I couldn't change my mind about doing it this day.
"I am delighted to receive the gifts of my family, Asta, and my friends, Jiba Lou, Ludo Lou, Limi Lou, Sallis Lan Fou and Aim-Fow."
With a soft and natural smile on his face, Ai-Fa answered in thanksgiving.
Eye Fa's dear friends are watching him happy. Of course, I have the same look on my face.
"So... I've prepared a gift for you again this year, so can you take it?
In my words, Ey-Fa's smile turns into a bitter smile.
"You say you don't need any gifts besides flowers, but you can't help it."
"Yeah, I'm sorry. I can't help but suppress my inner impulse."
Last year, Grandma Ziva wrote to me that it was not unusual for men to give decorations to women. Then it shouldn't have forced me to bring my hometown habits.
"Another ornament? Wow, look forward to it! What kind of ornament is it this time?
Limi Lou is watching us with anticipation.
I interpreted Ei Fa's gentle gaze as a sign of understanding, and I wandered around the lumbar compartment.
It was Sallis Langford who looked at what had been taken out of it and shouted with admiration.
"It's beautiful... is it a necklace?
"Yes, they say it's made of Sim silver."
It was connected to a luxurious chain of silver, with several ornaments on the front inspired by small leaves of wood.
"So, this is supposed to be replaced with a jewel of Ai Fa's necklace."
"Hmm? Is that about this blue stone?
"Yeah. Can I borrow that for a second?
It is the first necklace I gave to Ey-Fa. Regardless of his birthday, he bought it from Schmiral-Lillin with daily gratitude to Ai-Fa.
At that time, Ey-Fa was more fierce and avoided decorating herself. However, I was told that this would also help to avert disaster, so I was given a gift in the hope of the healthy life of Ai-Fa, who lives as a hunter.
On the silver foundation, a blue stone like a thumbnail is inserted. I removed it from the leather string and connected it to a new silver chain as a gift.
"When I was wearing a banquet costume in the castle town, Sheila had prepared a silver chain for me, right? Not just for the castle town banquet, I thought I'd be happy if you changed my banquet costume...?
"I don't know, I can't waste anything I've already bought."
Eye Fa said, still smiling.
"I'm gradually trying to solve the problem by leaving the leather laces on even in the banquet costume... good. Whatever you want."
Well then, I'll give you a gift.
I wandered behind Ai-Fa, playing with my shyness in a silly tone. Tie the chain fasteners together as they circle around its elegantly curved nose.
As a matter of fact, Limi Lou played "Wow."
"Amazing! Very well, I'd like to see it in a banquet costume."
"I'm not going to change before dinner."
What Ai Fa is wearing today is a man's long-sleeved outfit. I usually wear the outfit of a crowd, but I wear this outfit because the poncho outfit during the rainy season hinders my hunting work.
Still, the silver ornament that shines blue jewels seemed to suit Eye-Fa for once.
In the first place, the jewelry resembles the color of Eye-Fa's eyes and is a gem that almost at a glance fell in love with it and decided to buy it. Both Grandma Jiba and Sallis Run-Fow were looking at each other with satisfaction, and Aim-Fow also said "Kiki".
"Hmm? I haven't gotten used to it since the beginning."
Waiting for dinner to begin, Rud-Lou shook himself, saying so.
I'll laugh at you with a good feeling.
"Actually, it seems that this decoration was made by the same craftsman. He remembered when Radazid bought it before and recommended it to me."
"Radazid?" said Eye Fa.
I see. I bought this blue stone from Silver Pot in the first place. "
"Yeah, that's right. That's why I asked him if he had a chain that fits the stone."
"But Radazid and the others must have left Genos two months ago."
Is it this thing that falls to talk?
It seemed like I was more than conscious of myself.
"Ah, yeah, well... when Silver Pot arrived on the purple moon, I was immediately consulted."
"Then it would be nearly three months. You've been preparing this stuff for a long time?
"Yeah... from that time on, I wanted to give you a chain that matches that stone."
It was Ludo Lou who shouted "fuhee."
"You've been hiding it for the last three months? Wow. If I were you, I wouldn't be so quiet. I don't know when I should have given you a gift. You don't have to wait for your birthday."
"Yeah, well, that's right... because I wanted Ei Fa to be happy on my birthday."
I didn't mean to put you in such a mood, so as for me, it's reddish.
After all, Ai Fa's face turned red so much that I couldn't beat her.
"Oh, you don't have enough ideas, Aster. I suppose you know that I'm not the kind of person who likes decorations in the first place?
"Well, that's right. I just wanted it to be a happy birthday."
Ey-Fa rubbed her red cheeks in a hurry, as if she could gauge her emotions.
There, Grandma Jiba's relaxed laughter echoes.
"Anyway, what a wonderful gift... I'm looking forward to the day when Ai Fa wears a banquet costume..."
"Yeah, really. I want that day to come soon."
Sallis Langford also smiled and smiled at Ai-Fa's upset.
Well then, let's start dinner. I've been hungry forever! "
"Yeah, that's right. Sorry to keep you waiting. I'll be ready soon."
I took Limi Lou and Sallis Langford back to the cabin. Today, there were many dishes that needed to be kept warm, so the barbecue in the mother's house was not enough.
Fortunately, the rain almost stopped, so I went back and forth without using my coat. Brave, who had already finished eating, was watching us with a decent look.
"Then Limi Lou and the others will ask for soup dishes."
"Ryokai!
I prepare meat dishes that were kept warm in the barbecue of my mother's house. The bees were rounded everywhere near the chestnut, and this one just sent a horizontal gaze with one eye, no matter how close I got.
"All right, we're ready! Parent, please say hello before dinner."
The redness on her cheeks finally subsided, Ey-Fa shouted the prep words with a solemn voice. We repeat that, and at last dinner begins.
"It's the same dedication as last year, but I'm going to refine my hobbies even further."
Ai-Fa looked around at the dishes lined up in front of her and smiled, "I see."
The same dedication as last year was Hamburg's wave-like attack. A small but thick hamburger piled up like a pile to prepare a variety of sauces and toppings.
The sauce of Tarapa, which will soon be unavailable in the stadium town, is accompanied by royal road demi-glace sauce, curry sauce adjusted for hamburgers and, until now, a familiar lineup for regular dinners.
They prepare a freshly tailored dressing-style sauce made with dried oysters from Meyan leaves and plum blossoms to grate Shima from Daikon.
Chit-pickled maromaro in soy sauce was heated by adding coconut in sesame oil and pepper, minced mummy and kel roots and yural pa, and finished with a Chinese spicy sauce.
In addition, the spice powder based on Buchella was also unveiled for the first time today.
In addition to the normal version of Hamburg's patties, we also prepare tongues minced and cropped. Grandma Jiba said she couldn't bite the crown of the tongue, but the crown of the tongue jumped out of the small patty everywhere, so there was no risk of accidental mouth contact.
"And he's finally convinced. Let's name it cheese sauce."
A long time ago, it was an attempt to reproduce the cheese fondue that was mouthed in Dabagu.
First, cook a large amount of milk fat on fire, then melt the fuwano powder, and then add the curron milk. The final finely chopped gamma cheese was melted into a neat sauce.
Originally I liked cheese in berg, so I didn't find much significance in the development of cheese sauce.
However, I thought that these hamburger dedication would give rise to the pleasure of combining with various sauces, and I completed them for this day.
"My recommendation is a tangy patty with a tarapa sauce and cheese sauce. Try it first, if you like."
I finished the plate by hand for my beloved parent.
After receiving the wooden dish, Ai-Fa carries the two kinds of sauce in a patty cut with a spoon and put it in her mouth.
Eventually, the cherry blossom-colored lips gave me a cut breath.
"This also seems to have a completely different flavor with cheese in it.... completely different, but I think it tastes just as good."
So Ey-Fa looked around at the guests with a little shyness.
"Is there a habit that people who are celebrating their births must always keep their mouth shut first? I want everyone to share this joy."
"I mean, wait till Eye-Fa eats it, and the little limi will cum!"
With that word of Ludo Lu, we decided to start dinner too.
Because the meat dishes are full of hamburgers, there are a variety of side dishes that don't use meat. Stir-fried mushrooms and vegetables made with Aria, Tino, Neenon and Onda, Bunashimejimodoki and Kikuragemodoki are lightly seasoned with salt, pico leaves, tau oil and fish sauce. Mixed pellets for cucumber, funa for pine nuts and ripe corn, and creamy sautéed meleze were also added to the flavorful hamburger.
We are also preparing a church salad with a request from Ludo Lou. When I was a cucumber, the pellet also helped me improve my completeness.
After discussions with Limi Lou, the soup was made into a simple soup of tau oil and fish sauce, which was sourced from Gibba meat and Kimus bones. The ingredients and vegetables are plentiful, but the gibbon meat is thrown only for the minimum amount necessary to fetch the stock. If the variation of Hamburg has increased so far, it is a judgment that soup dishes should not be too insistent. The staple food was only plain shasca cooked in pure white.
"Wow. I can't believe how many different flavors I can produce... it seems like I can taste this carved shima with a sweet and sour soot."
"Yeah, yeah! That's delicious too! They're all delicious... but I wonder if Limi is the one who hung the cheese and soy sauce together."
"I feel like I like this spicy one. You bought this from those gelds, right?
"Yeah, it's a maromaro chit-pickle. I use a variety of other ingredients.... ah, I think it's too spicy for Aim-Fow, so be careful."
"Yeah, because I want to."
Both Sallis Langford and Aimford were modest temperaments, but they still seemed to be a big part of the crowd.
While Limi Lou helped me sort out the dishes, Grandma Jiba watched the dance floor with a clear look.
"It's been a year since I rebuilt Fa's house... and I can't believe the smell of Ai Fa and Asa is sticking in here..."
"Hmm? Because I cleanse myself properly every day, I don't think it smells like that...."
"It's not like that... it's something to relieve me... I feel like I'm surrounded by Ey-Fa and Asta..."
I wonder if so, I also unexpectedly looked around the interior of the hall.
Months have passed since the house was rebuilt, making me feel less like this is a new building. The newly installed large shelves, the halls that are slightly wider than before, and the woods of the walls that are twitching to candy are all familiar sights.
"The house is not just an enclosure... this house is growing Ai-Fa and Asa... Ai-Fa and Asa are growing this house... that's what it looks like to me..."
"Hmm. I don't know. Well, I'm sure my house is the most calm."
After eating the church salad, Ludo laughed.
"Speaking of which, the house of Fa is more calm than the house of the northern settlement. After all, it might be easier to relax in someone's home with deep ties."
"The northern settlements?... oh, yeah. Ludo Lou has been with us for days in the northern settlement. When the rainy season comes, will you rent out your family again?
"I wonder. Let's go to another one at that time."
Ludo Roux was active and curious, but he was less interested in lending to his family. I don't know if I'd miss being away from my favorite sister, but I decided to keep my mouth shut because talking about something like that would cause a terrible counterattack.
"Speaking of which, there was a time when Ai Fa and the others lived in the Lou settlement."
In the words of Sallis Langford, "Hmm?" and Ludo Lou leaned his neck.
"Oh, when Aster was exposed to Refraea. I kept it in Lou's empty house until I settled with the aristocrats after I took Asta back."
"Yes, I was relieved to hear that Asta was back safely."
Saying so, Sallis Langford looked towards Ai-Fa. Speaking of which, they were able to get back together with the incident I was exposed to.
"And also for Gazran-Lutim's celebrations! Was it about ten days back then?
When Limi Lou spoke cheerfully, Sallis Langford said, "Huh? I looked back at you.
"When did that happen? Apart from what I just said, I don't remember Eye-Fahs leaving their homes for days...."
"Oh, that was before last year's parents' meeting, so I was still alienated from the neighbors."
As I explained, Sallis Langford looked down and said, "Really..."
"Well, there's no way I'll notice. I kept myself away from Ai-Fa by my own will....."
"But now that you're so close, it's okay! See, Ey-Fa?
Limi Lou looks at Ai Fa in a bit of a hurry.
Ai-Fa put the wooden dish back on the rug and turned her gentle gaze towards Sallis Lan-Fow.
"We once again went the wrong way, but we were able to get back on the right path. You don't have to regret your past now, Sarris Langford."
"But... Isn't Ai Fa wrong about anything?
"That's not true. I didn't try to reconnect with my dear friend, Sallis Langford, so that's not the right path."
Eye Fa, who had a gentle look, said so in a gentle tone.
"Even with the eyes of the Sung family, there should have been as many ways to reconnect. But I stubbornly chose no path and tried to cut off all my friends from myself. I made the same mistake not only against Sarris Langford, but also against Grandma Ziba and Limi Lou."
"Well then, that's a good idea. At that time, the Sung family was a mess. My father was always wondering when to take a sword."
In a faint tone, Ludo Lou said so.
"So you don't have to talk about anything so damp on a festive day? We're here to make Ey-Fa feel good, aren't we?
"That's right," said Sallis Langford, smiling unfortunately.
"I'm sorry I said something funny, Ey-Fa. Today is the birthday celebration of Ai Fa."
"It doesn't matter. I'm happy enough for everyone to come together."
Eye Fa threw a soft smile at her important childhood acquaintance.
"But you can't bring up a dark story like that.... Aster, tell me something bright."
"Eh, me? You're going to pretend like you're really naughty."
"Would it be a family thing to entertain guests? It's not just your job, Kamado."
It is tyrannical to hear only words, but Ai-Fa's expression and tone are warm. I twisted my head to meet the expectations of my parents.
"As for me, I'd like to ask you something about a time I didn't know about... When did Sallis Langford meet Ai-Fa?
"I've been face-to-face with Ai-Fa since I was a kid in the water field, so I think I used to talk to her when I had a heart attack. I started to think of myself as a dear friend... when I was 10 years old or not."
Sallis Langford narrowed his eyes to miss the time.
"I've been looking so good since then... and I've had unusual golden hair around here, so I've been very eye-catching. Many young children, not just me, would have liked Ai Fa."
"Hmm? I'm not supposed to be close to anyone other than Sarris Langford."
"I suppose that's because Ai Fa was always interested in playing with boys to train hunters."
Sallis Langford smiles at Eye Fa with a suspicious face.
"At ten, boys just climb trees, swing sticks, and stop playing with girls, don't they? That's why most girls are just looking at Ai-Fa from afar."
"So, what about the boy?" Limi Lou asked in an interesting way.
"The boy... can't climb a tree, pull a stick, or even meet a stick, so I'm starting to ignore Ai-Fa a little bit. Adults also told Ai Fa to stop imitating hunters... so Ai Fa stopped approaching the Fow and Run settlements."
"I see... even when I first met Limi and I, I was practicing tree crossing... even though I was still an 11-year-old child..."
That's what Grandma Jiba said, looking at her nostalgic eyes.
"So... even though I lost sight of your house, you were able to deepen your ties with me...?
"Yes, I felt lonely that Ai Fa wouldn't come, so I started going to Fa's house myself."
Sallis Langford and Grandma Ziva stared at her from left to right, and Ai Fa shook her shoulders uncomfortably.
"Well, it was only Grandma Ziba and Limi Lou and Sallis Langford who saw strangers like me as friends. Thank you for not abandoning such a biased person."
"I'm not being biased. Eye-Fahs look angry when they're in trouble, so they're just prone to misunderstanding."
"That's right... if I knew who I was, I'd think everyone would like me..."
"Yes! Now there are lots of people who want to get along with Ai-Fa, whether it's Lou's blood or his family around here!
Ai-Fa looks more and more distracted, brutally grinding the remaining few hamburgers. The sexual nature of being bad at words of praise seemed to be alive even at the age of 19.
"I see. Well, I was able to empower myself to live as a hunter without being so shunned by the people around me. I think it's awesome, too."
"... that's all I was."
"Don't worry, it's biased. Even my father and brother Dulm are in the bigotry category. If everyone were Dan Rutim, he wouldn't be too noisy."
Ai-Fa was confused, but the room was filled with warm air. It was a satisfactory result even for me, who offered the topic at Ei Fa's behest.
Moreover, I think that the confusion of Ai-Fa is the reversal of the feeling of happiness.
Eye Fa, who has lived alone for a long time, has become less familiar with being attracted to favors and kindness from a large number of people. That's why I must have left my chest feeling of happiness behind.
Ai-Fa lost her mother at the age of 13 and her father at the age of 15. It was when I was seventeen that I was able to reconnect with everyone else. Then, only two years have passed, so you should slowly create a place of happiness without haste. This was just the beginning, and I believed that Ai Fa would make a lot of people friends from now on.
(Ei = fa himself and the environment surrounding Ei = fa will continue to change. If I could keep watching it all the time, right next to Ey-Fa... that would be the happiest thing for me.)
With such a crush in my heart, I decided to get a warm air filled with the scene.
With a confused face and a sudden look on his head - still, Eye Fa's eyes seemed very happy.
