Chapter 556: Zhishi's Big House
Weekend, on the bus.
Sakura , wearing an orange-pink skirt, was sitting in the back row, holding a bag in her arms and wearing a round hat of the same color on her head.
Because Zhishi invited her yesterday, she was preparing to take Xiaoke to visit Zhishi's house. Xiaoke was hiding in the bag in her arms at this time.
But because the bag was covered tightly, Xiaoke suddenly rushed out while still in the car, and couldn't help but complain while gasping for breath.
This also attracted the attention of the passengers on the bus, and thanks to Sakura's timely reaction, Xiaoke was not discovered.
After this little episode, they went through several more stops before she and Xiaoke reached their destination.
However, after getting off the car, Sakura turned around several times along the map drawn by Tomoyo, but didn't see the gate. It was not until she was lifted into the sky by Kero that she found Tomoyo's house.
It was a huge manor, and even the iron gate at the entrance was seven or eight meters wide.
After Sakura communicated with the manager of the manor through the doorbell, the door opened automatically.
Only after she walked in did she see clearly how big the manor was. It was equipped with fountains, gardens, lawns, and at the end was a villa that looked warm and comfortable.
“It’s so big.”
Sakura strolled through the manor which was much larger than a football field and could not help but exclaim in amazement. Her house was just an ordinary one-family house and naturally could not be compared with the Chise family.
However, Sakura didn't have any special thoughts in her mind. She was just amazed at how big Tomoyo's house was. This was her first time as a guest at Tomoyo's house.
After walking for a while, she finally arrived at the door of the villa at the end.
But before she went up to knock on the door, the door of the villa suddenly opened from the inside, and Chise, wearing a big pink skirt and a pink bow hairpin, poked her head out from behind the door.
"Sakura!"
After seeing Sakura, Tomoyo smiled happily and trotted to Sakura with cheerful little steps.
"Welcome~"
Sakura smiled and nodded, then said hello: "Good afternoon~"
The bag in her hand suddenly opened, and Xiaoke poked her head out: "Hi, Zhishi."
Hearing Xiaoke's greeting, Zhishi bent down and smiled softly, "Good afternoon, Xiaoke."
"Come in."
After saying hello, Tomoyo naturally took Sakura's hand and led Sakura into the villa.
The interior of the villa was also very large, but it was decorated very warmly, which made Sakura amazed again and again.
"Okay, Sakura, come to my room. Classmate Xia is still waiting for us." Tomoyo said as he pulled Sakura towards his room.
"Huh?"
Sakura was surprised when she heard this: "Is Xia here too?"
"Well, because I have something to ask of you two ."
After saying that, Tomoyo continued to pull Sakura towards her room. On the way, she asked the maid for two cups of tea and prepared to have them delivered to her room.
Click!
Following the sound of the door opening, Sakura poked her head inside and immediately exclaimed, "What a big, beautiful room."
While marveling at the scene, Xiaoying subconsciously pushed open the door and walked in completely. However, after she was completely inside, she was immediately attracted by Xia Yu who was sitting on the sofa.
Because Xia Yu was holding a dazzling elf costume in his hand, which consisted of a milky white skirt and light green leaf-shaped wings, and was decorated with gold wire patterns.
In addition, there were two boxes on the coffee table in front of Xia Yu. One box contained various lace decorations, and the other box was a sewing box filled with fine threads of various colors.
At this time, Xia Yu seemed to be sewing an elf costume, holding a thin needle in his hand, with a thin golden thread connected to the needle.
"Xia classmate, you...what are you doing?"
Looking at Xia Yu sewing clothes stitch by stitch like a good wife and mother, Xiaoying blinked her small eyes and looked a little cute.
As if noticing Xiaoying's confused and surprised look, Xia Yu snorted: "What? Can't I learn some needlework?"
"No...I...that..."
Because the scene was too shocking, Sakura stammered and didn't know how to express her feelings. How should I put it? I didn't expect that classmate Xia was so omnipotent.
She can bake, cook, and even sew clothes. She is as versatile as her father.
"Haha~ Xia-san is also very skillful with his hands. Sakura, I was just discussing your new battle uniform with Xia-san."
Tomoyo pushed Sakura to Xia Yu, then nodded to Xia Yu. Xia Yu also raised the clothes he was sewing in his hands and showed them to Sakura.
"This is the uniform that Sakura will wear next time she seals the Clow Cards. Every stitch and thread of this uniform contains the love and care of Xia and me."
Hearing this, Sakura smiled helplessly, but Xiao Ke beside her was very interested. He circled the clothes twice and praised: "What a fancy dress, it looks gorgeous, quite nice."
Hearing this, Sakura hurriedly waved her hands in embarrassment: "In fact, low-key clothes are very good, and it must be tiring to make a new dress every time."
Facing Sakura's refusal, Tomoyo shook his head gently: "Don't say that. Every time I think of Sakura wearing the new clothes I made, endless power will surge in my body!"
Xia Yu, who had put down the clothes beside him, also nodded and said seriously: "This dress was designed by Chiyo and I. Don't you like it, Xiaoying?"
"No……"
"That's all, next time you seal the Clow Cards, you must wear it. This is our hard work!"
Seeing that Xia Yu said this, Xiaoying could only swallow the excuse she had prepared. In this situation, even if she wanted to refuse, she couldn't say it out loud.
Also, her initial guess came true. Xia, who got along very well with Tomoyo, actually worked with her to help her prepare a new battle uniform.
Although I don't mind it, it would be better if it was less flashy and more low-key.
"Hey, what is this necklace?"
Just when Sakura was about to ask Tomoyo if she had anything to ask her and Xia Yu, she suddenly saw another box on the coffee table, which contained a very beautiful snowflake necklace.
"It's so beautiful, did you buy it for me, Tomoyo?"
Sakura picked up the necklace from the box. The necklace was silver-white and felt as cool as real snowflakes.
"No." Zhishi shook his head gently and said with a smile: "This is a gift given to me by classmate Xia when she visited me."
Hearing this, Sakura slightly widened her eyes and slapped her head in hindsight: "Oh, no, I forgot to bring a gift."
Looking at Sakura's cute and adorable appearance, Tomoyo shook his head gently: "No, Sakura, I'm already very happy that you can come here."
Although Tomoyo didn't care, Sakura still blushed in embarrassment: "Sorry, Tomoyo, I'll make up the gift when I go to school on Monday."
Seeing that Sakura seemed to really care about this matter, Tomoyo stopped trying to dissuade her, but suddenly stepped forward, took Sakura's hand, and brought her to a folded wall.
"Oh, oh, Sakura, look at this."
Tomoyo took out a remote control from somewhere and pressed one of the buttons.
With the pressing of the button, the folding wall opened to both sides in an instant. After opening, Sakura, who was originally feeling a little guilty, was immediately attracted by the layout of the room.
The hidden room seems to be a small home theater with a large sofa in the middle and a large screen that takes up the entire wall opposite the sofa.
"Huh?"
Sakura looked around curiously, and just when she was about to ask Tomoyo what she wanted to see, Tomoyo pressed the remote control in his hand again.
In an instant, the large screen on the wall lit up, and began to play the heroic scene of Sakura fighting the Clow Cards.
“Ah, this…”
Sakura looked at herself on the screen in dumbfoundedness. Seeing herself fighting the Clow Cards on such a big screen, her sense of shame was rising.
"How is it? Sakura, this is a theater just for you."
As Tomoyo spoke, she couldn't help but walk into the room, then pointed to a certain scene and said, "This is it. The scene shot here is simply too perfect. It completely captures Sakura's heroic fighting posture."
"Every time I prepare a new uniform for Sakura, I have to admire her heroic figure. This way I will have a constant source of inspiration."
“Uh, hehe…”
Seeing that Chiyo was in such high spirits, Sakura could only stand behind and smile helplessly. She didn't feel anything during the normal filming, but when it was actually broadcast, she realized how shameful it was.
Especially when it was played on such a big screen, the embarrassment was off the charts and my toes curled up in embarrassment.
Xia Yu came to Xiaoying at some point. He looked at the picture on the big screen and nodded with satisfaction: "How is it? Xiaoying, this is what I took. I have a talent for photography, right? "
“Uh, hehe…”
"Honestly, Sakura, if you were to act in a TV show, you would definitely become a big hit."
Xiaoying, who was originally still embarrassed, heard Xia Yu's suggestion and hurriedly shook her head and said, "No, I'm just an ordinary elementary school student. I don't know how to act."
"Who says elementary school students can't act? Aren't there still child actors?"
"No, no, no, I'd rather be an ordinary elementary school student than a child actor."
"An ordinary elementary school student who can do magic?" Xia Yu couldn't help but complain.
"Well, after all, I'm just suggesting it. If you don't want to, forget it, Sakura."
Seeing that Xia Yu no longer talked about this matter, Xiaoying couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and the blush on her face gradually faded. After Xia Yu's interruption, she was no longer very embarrassed.
"By the way, let me tell you something. I have a home theater like this at home, and it's also you."
Sakura: (⊙д⊙)
I don’t want to know!
When Xiaoying heard that Xia Yu also had a theater at home that played his own movies, her face, which had originally calmed down, turned red again, and she was so embarrassed that she almost fainted.
Boom boom boom!
Just then, there was a hurried knock on the door.
This also made the people in the room react instantly. The video playing on the big screen just now did not have sound, so they all heard the knock on the door.
“Oh no!”
Xiaoke was the first to react. He quickly crawled into the decorative box on the coffee table and hid himself.
Tomoyo reacted quickly by turning off the big screen, then opened the folding wall with the remote control, then pulled Sakura and Xia Yu back to the sofa before speaking.
"Come in."
As soon as Chishio finished speaking, the door was opened impatiently with a click.
Yuan Mei, who had short burgundy hair, pushed open the door and looked inside the house while panting.
Seeing that the person who came in was his mother, Zhishi smiled and said, "Mom, you're back."
Xia Yu and Xiao Ying beside them also bowed slightly and said politely: "Hello, Auntie."
After the anxious panting gradually slowed down, Yuan Mei walked over and nodded repeatedly, "Welcome, welcome, hello!"
While greeting, Yuanmei quickly came to Sakura, squatted down, clasped her hands together, and a gentle look appeared in her eyes.
"I heard you were coming home, so I rushed back from work. If you don't mind, how about we go to the courtyard to chat and drink tea? I bought some delicious cakes."
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Sakura was stunned and couldn't help but glance towards Xiaoke's hiding place.
Xiao Keke loves eating cake the most, but looking at the current situation, it seems that they are going to leave Xiao Ke behind to eat cake alone.
On the other side, when Xiaoke heard the word "cake", he couldn't help but stick his head out from the decorations, but in order not to scare others, he suppressed the idea of rushing out.
I really want to eat it, but I can’t.
"Okay, let's go, let's go."
In order to chat more with Sakura, Yuanmei pushed the children outside.
Just at this moment, the maid who served tea also came in. Seeing the maid, Yuan Mei smiled and said casually: "By the way, please take the tea to the courtyard. We want to chat in the courtyard."
"OK."
The maid didn't think much about it and followed him out with the tea.
Now not only the cake, but even the tea Xiaoke can’t be drunk. It’s so sad.
…
A few minutes later, the water courtyard.
At this time, the three children, led by Yuanmei, had come to an open-air dining table in the water courtyard.
There are many lotus flowers and lotus leaves planted in the lake in the courtyard, and a refreshing scent is everywhere. The lake is surrounded by lush trees, creating an lush green atmosphere.
Yuan Mei was cutting the strawberry cake she bought at the dining table. The cake was simply decorated with strawberries dotted on cream.
However, the taste cannot be judged simply by appearance. Sometimes simple cakes can also taste very good.
"The cakes here are delicious. Do you like cakes?"
Although there were three children sitting at the table, Yuanmei's attention was always on Sakura, the group's favorite, and she even asked questions to Sakura.
"like."
Sakura nodded, and Sonomi couldn't help but stroke her cheek with one hand when she heard that, and began to recall Nadeshiko's past.
"That's great. Nadeshiko used to like sweets too. She even said there was a place in her stomach that was reserved for sweets..."
Once Sonomi started talking about Nadeshiko, she seemed unable to stop. Seeing this, the two real children looked at each other and smiled helplessly.
A certain fake child had his eyes unfocused, obviously distracted again.
