v8 Chapter 16: Minato Fujiki

"Excuse me, can I come in?"

"Hi!"

Hearing the inquiries from the waitress coming from outside the door, Lin Xiuyi responded immediately. As the sliding door of the room was slowly opened. The waitress sitting outside the house first bowed to Lin Xiuyi and Meiji. He then walked over to Lin Xiuyi and Miki with a lacquered dinner plate. I saw her kneeling down slowly, and then put the dinner plate on the tatami in front of her. Immediately after, he picked up the snacks and tea on the plate and placed them on the table in front of Lin Xiuyi and Miki.

"This is the shop's special Kikyo Shingen cake, and there is also a pot of herbal tea! Please use the two for a while. We have already arranged the cleaning of the bath!"

As the waitress spoke, she bowed to Lin Xiu again, and was about to retire. Lin Xiu nodded and bowed slightly to thank him.

Shingenmochi is a special product of Yamanashi Prefecture, and it is as famous as high-end wagashi such as Yatsubashi in Kyoto and Jinchumochi in Okinawa. The specific method is to wrap the fillings with glutinous rice flour to make rice cakes dipped in soybean flour and black molasses juice to eat. Although it is also possible to buy Shingen cakes in gift boxes in Tokyo, it is obviously not as good as it is now after being stored for a long time.

Lin Xiuyi picked up the Xinxuan cake in the plate with chopsticks, and then followed Miki's way and smeared a thick layer of soy flour on the outside. Immediately afterwards, Lin Xiuyi poured the black molasses juice on it again.

One bite, the aroma of soybean powder, the sweetness of black molasses juice, and the softness of Xinxuan cake itself. Even Lin Xiuyi, who seldom eats wagashi, thought it was a rare delicacy.

"It's delicious. It's really different from the ones I've eaten in Tokyo. It seems that the Xinxuan cakes here are more fragrant, and the brown sugar topping is just right, so there won't be that sweet and greasy feeling!"

After Miki took a sip, she was a little surprised and praised the Xinxuan cake here. Lin Xiu picked up the teapot and added a cup of tea to Miki. After thanking Miki, she immediately put down the plate in her hand and tasted the tea in the cup again. Because it is herbal tea, the tea naturally has the fragrance of flowers, and at the same time, it lacks the bitter taste of the tea itself.

"It's really good!"

Lin Xiuyi and Miki just sat in the room like this, sipping tea and snacks, and waiting for Minato Fujiki to arrive. Just when the two had already drank a pot of tea, another voice came from outside the door. The waitress asked.

"Guest, the master who cleans the bath has arrived, may we come in?"

"Hey, please come in, we've already eaten!"

Miki put down the teacup in her hand and responded to the door. Then, the sliding door was gently pushed open again. I saw that the waitress who brought the refreshments just now sat outside the door together with a lady wearing work clothes with the words "cleaning company", and bowed to Lin Xiuyi and Meiji.

"I'm sorry. We didn't bother you, did we?"

The waitress asked Lin Xiuyi and Miki apologetically. It is not a decent thing for a Japanese-style hotel to take the liberty to disturb the guests when they are having snacks, although there is a reason.

"No, we've eaten all the dim sum, this is the best Xinxuan cake I've ever eaten!"

Miki made no secret of her love for dim sum, and upon hearing Miki's compliment, the waitress saluted Miki again, and then she introduced Lin Xiuyi and Miki about the cleaning lady who came with her.

"This is Master Fujiki who is in charge of cleaning the baths for the two guests. If it is convenient, I might as well ask the two guests to wait in the lounge for a while. Cleaning may take some time."

The waitress bowed her head again and asked Lin Xiuyi and Miki, but Lin Xiuyi obviously wouldn't let go of this rare opportunity for Mina Fujiki.

"I see! But... can we stay in the room?"

"Eh?"

The waitress raised her head in surprise and looked at Lin Xiuyi who played cards out of line, not understanding what he meant.

"Guests, it is inevitable that some special medicines will be used to clean the bath, and the smell may make you uncomfortable!"

The cleaning lady Kudougi, who had been sitting behind the waitress, hurriedly advised Lin Xiuyi. For fear that Lin Xiu would leave a bad impression on Qingyun Pavilion for a while because of the unpleasant smell during the cleaning process.

"Ah, it doesn't matter! In fact, I was just curious how to clean the traditional pure wooden bath. In fact, we are going to get married after returning to Tokyo, and after we get married, we hope to make the bath at home similar to the hot spring bath. So , if it is convenient, please let us have a tour!"

Lin Xiu casually made up an excuse without changing his face, which made the unprepared Miki glance at him in surprise, and then she quickly put on a smiley face and nodded to the waitress and cleaning lady.

"That's it! But..."

The waitress glanced at Master Fujiki with some embarrassment, the female Kudougi nodded, and then replied to Lin Xiuyi:

"I understand what the two of you mean, but there may be some bad smells during the cleaning process, so..."

"It doesn't matter, anyway, if we really decide to have a spa-style bathroom, we'll do the cleaning ourselves later..."

Hearing Lin Xiuyi's determined attitude to stay, the waitress naturally couldn't say anything. After some hesitation, Fujiki Mina finally agreed to Lin Xiuyi's request.

After the female foreman left, Mui Nedu went straight into the bathroom in the suite with the cleaning tools. The bathroom in this suite is semi-open, so if you want to take a shower while enjoying the view from the window, you just need to remove the window. This can be regarded as a bathroom or a courtyard. The bathroom is surrounded by a floor made of various beautiful stones, and in the middle is a semi-sunken bathtub. The water in the bath is introduced through a bamboo tube. It seems to have a feeling of being close to nature.

Lin Xiuyi and Miki followed Fujiki Minato into the bathroom~lightnovelpub.net~ I saw Fujiki crouched down and carefully checked the condition of the wooden bath. Then he poured some white powder from a plastic bucket he carried with him and poured it into the bucket. After finishing this, Fujiki took out some brown powder with a hint of fishy smell from another box and mixed it into it.

"Excuse me, what are these?"

Lin Xiuyi asked Mina Fujiki curiously.

"It is the powder of caustic soda and earthworms. Caustic soda can make the stains infiltrated into the wood to float, but if only caustic soda is used, it may corrode the wood, so it is necessary to add some other chemicals to neutralize it. The ratio of cleaning agents There is no fixed formula, but it depends on the material and condition of the bathtub to determine the final ratio. All this is determined by experience, and there is no certain standard. Therefore, Mr. Guest, are you willing to use wood at home? the bath?"
