Chapter 208: Home (Repair)

“Since you like fruit so much, then you ate my portion of the fruit assorted platter along with it! Then why don’t you do that when you’re inside your home?” Masayoshi Kishimoto said calmly.

“I can’t really afford to let me spend money on fruit to eat. If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t have bought it! Not to mention that something like fruit is edible or not.” Natsui Makoto replied bluntly.

“You make it sound like the fruits here don’t cost anything. For the same quality of fruit, the ones here are going to be more expensive than the ones you’d buy back home.” Masayoshi Kishimoto chuckled.

Natsui Makoto naturally knew that this one couldn’t be more obvious. However, there would be a different effect on top of the psychology, just like the difference in perception brought about by paying cash and swiping a credit card.

Without being polite, she took his portion with one hand and ate it in front of herself. It was because she knew that the other party was not lacking that she acted in this manner.

She herself was born a bitter child, and could be said to have lacked everything since she was a child. She was the one who grew up in an environment where materials were scarce.

Kishimoto Masayoshi looked at her current look of happiness and intoxication and knew that she was just like what she said, she would not take the initiative to buy fruits for herself to eat.

The fruits stored inside the refrigerator were only taken out and used when he came. Otherwise, Natsui Makoto shouldn’t have behaved this way.

This kind of reaction of hers was just like a lot of China’s post-80s grandparents, who couldn’t afford to spend more money even if they were rich, and still maintained a simple lifestyle. They were people who had really starved for food, and what was rooted in their bones was that spending money indiscriminately was tantamount to committing a crime, and there would be a sense of guilt that arose in their hearts.

“When you’re done eating, shall we go out for a walk, take a look around, or just start soaking in the hot springs?” Masayoshi Kishimoto put the choice in her hands and said.

“Honestly, are you trying to do something bad to me again?” Natsui Makoto blurted out as she looked towards him.

“Am I that kind of person? After soaking in a hot spring and eating kaiseki cuisine, that’s a rare enjoyment in life. For you to be thinking such nonsense, I’m afraid it’s because you want to do shy things to me!” Kishimoto Masayoshi firmly denied while coming up with an Inuyasha playing with a nail rake is to hit a nail rake backwards said.

Natsui Makoto didn’t say anything and continued to eat fruit. In Japan, male and female mixed bathing is regarded as a normal thing, that is all before the Meiji Restoration.

After the Meiji Restoration in Japan, the Japanese people gradually accepted Western thought, and then **** also began to feel that the custom of mixed bathing for men and women was very barbaric and backward.

Therefore, the government issued a series of regulations to reverse this bad tradition of the people, and since then, male and female baths have been set up, and mixed bathing is strictly prohibited.

Mixed bathing between couples, husbands and wives, and family members is a different matter. Mixed bathing between family members is called parent-child bathing.

As for mixed bathing between couples and husbands and wives, it is found in every country and nation in the world. In China, it was called a mandarin duck bath.

Masayoshi Kishimoto took the initiative to stand up and go to another room to change into clothes for bathing. The biggest difference between yukata and kimono is that the former is not as cumbersome and ornate to wear as the latter.

In fact, a yukata was a simplified version of a kimono and belonged to everyday wear. Yukata is easy and light to put on, and even if you take it off, it is still convenient.

The kimono is a formal dress used by the Japanese for formal occasions, and it is troublesome to put on and take off. Without some necessary study and help from others, you will either not be able to put it on, or you will not be able to put it on properly.

A standard traditional Japanese kimono is a set of many pieces that need to be worn at the same time. On top of that, there were a bunch of incidental items.

It was after Masayoshi Kishimoto was dressed that he stepped out. He raised his arms and spun them up in a circle to show them to Natsui Makoto for a glance, cheerfully saying, “How is it, not bad, right?”

Natsui Makoto put the palm of his right hand in front of his mouth and smiled sarcastically, “Stinky.”

“You women always like to talk out of turn. For example, it’s obvious that you want it, but you have to say no.” Masayoshi Kishimoto lowered his arms and laughed more than a little as he said.

“If we women directly state our intentions, you men will again criticize us for not being reserved enough and too casual.” Natsui Makoto retorted.

“That’s why your minds are so hard to guess! Some people find it troublesome to fall in love, so they simply don’t fall in love also stems from that.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said without haste.

“Our minds are hard to guess, as if to say that your minds are easy to guess.” Natsui Makoto pouted a bit and said.

Kishimoto Masayoshi sat cross-legged on top of the tatami mat, drooping his head and said, “Let me ask you a question, why is it that Japanese women are also attracted to the idea that the marriage partner must have a house?

Foreigners who don’t know the situation in Japan still think that you don’t want a house, and only Chinese women and Korean women are so obsessed with this.”

“You’re making a generalization. Although I recognize that it’s the reality of Japan’s situation that most girls also have a house requirement for their marriage partner, but there are exceptions to everything.

For example, me. In the beginning, I didn’t go into a formal relationship with you because you didn’t have a house. In fact, I think girls who want a house have their own practical reasons.

Tokyo’s rent is so expensive, so if you don’t have your own house, you’ll always feel insecure. Since you are a marriage partner, you are planning to spend the rest of your life together.

If you have children in the future, it will be easier to raise them. Even if you don’t want to buy a house, you may be reluctant to give in to your partner’s financial strength.

Bringing up children is a troublesome thing, if the parents are willing to help, that is the best. If the parents are not willing to help, it is basically all left to the housewife to go alone.

How can you live without the financial stability of a family? I know only too well the pain of not having money.” Natsui Makoto analyzed from a woman’s point of view with reason.

Masayoshi Kishimoto knew that although Japanese parents did not help their sons and daughters bring up the next generation in the same high percentage as Chinese parents, there were quite a few who would help. As long as their own children opened their mouths, they were also happy to lend a hand. Not only do they contribute, but they will also contribute money.

He couldn’t help but be reminded of the Japanese drama “Home on the Ramp” with a 9.1 rating on Douban. Although it was only a short six episodes, it reflected how difficult it was for women to bring up children, and the conflicts that arise when families face financial pressure.

“It seems that you women want a low-risk marriage.” Justice Kishimoto certainly knew that love was built on bread, and marriage was even more so Dao.

“Divorce, after all, is not a good thing. People generally aspire to hold hands and grow old with their children.” Natsui Makoto said in a serious manner.

Masayoshi Kishimoto fully recognized this kind of statement of hers. The marriage rate of Japanese people was decreasing year by year, but it wasn’t because the domestic economy was putting too much pressure on young people.

Many of them are afraid to fall in love, afraid to get married, afraid to have children, and even afraid to die (can’t afford to die), after all, the price of cemeteries are rising every year.

Japan is one of those countries where it is very difficult for the average person to survive once they are unemployed. Women’s income is only half or even one-third of men’s income. This leads to a much higher poverty rate for women than for men.

He naturally associated the reason why the birth rate in the eastern provinces of China was lower than Japan and South Korea, and it was still not from the economic pressure.
