Movie Queen Development Plan

Chapter 185: Chapter 181 Reunion Dinner



That night, the Kiryu family of three and Shion went to the hot spring hotel in the village.

Of course they were not going to take a hot spring bath, but to have dinner.

As a host, it would be unacceptable not to entertain guests on the first day they arrive here.

The main course of dinner provided by the hotel is a small hot pot of wild mushrooms, a portion of grilled eggplant, a plate of sashimi, a small dish of pickled vegetables and the hot spring specialty - hot spring eggs.

The dinner was not very sumptuous, but it was all local specialties.

The vegetables and eggs are from the farmers in the village, the fish are caught from the nearby lake, and the mushrooms are all freshly picked from the mountains.

Nanaya finally understood why the boss was not there when he arrived. It turned out that the guy had gone to the mountains to pick mushrooms.

"Haha, I'm so sorry."

While eating, the boss said to Nanaya apologetically, "I didn't expect to have one less room for you. How about this, if you come to soak in the hot springs these few days, I won't charge you. It's considered compensation."

The owner's surname is Zaosu. He is a native local and has been running this hotel for generations.

At first, this place was not a hot spring hotel, but a hot spring bathhouse in the village.

But that was decades ago. Later, when the tourism industry emerged, the Zaosu family saw the business opportunities in hot spring hotels, so they converted the bathhouse into a hot spring hotel.

It's a pity that Matsuo Township is too remote. Even though there are hot springs, few tourists come here.

Of course, there are still guests in the hotel.

There are many photography enthusiasts who visit the village specifically to take pictures of the mountain scenery.

In addition, people from several surrounding villages occasionally come here to soak in the hot springs.

Although it was not as packed as expected, Zaosu still became a wealthy man in the village thanks to the hot spring hotel.

"Isn't it natural for me to get it for free?" Nanaya said, tapping the small table with chopsticks. "I have introduced so many guests to you to show your support, and it's too stingy to just give it to me for free. Shouldn't everyone in my family get it for free?"

"Please forgive me, I just run a small business." The owner of Zaosu said with a wry smile.

Nanaya chuckled: "I think your business is not popular because you are a man. If you were the boss lady of a *** restaurant, I guess there would be a lot of people visiting you, right?"

"Hey! I'm doing serious business!"

The boss directly retorted.

In Japan, sleeping with someone or prostitution is illegal.

Yes, in Japan, where the special culture regarding adults is extremely developed, any financial or physical transactions between men and women will result in the police arresting them and putting them in jail.

Especially in places like hotels and guesthouses, if they are reported for engaging in this kind of flesh trade, it will be considered a very serious violation of the law.

Not only will the business license be revoked, but it's possible that the boss will spend a few years in jail.

Of course, the Japanese, who have extremely active brains, have the habit of playing with the rules.

Stores like those in Ginza nominally do not and should not provide special services.

In the shop's own words, they only provide guests with the opportunity to chat with waiters in a private room.

As for whether the guests and waiters are drinking and chatting or fighting in the room, these are their private behaviors and have nothing to do with the venue.

Of course, it's a different way of playing at the hotel.

Because hotels are strict, basically big hotels do not provide special services.

If guests need anything, they will introduce them to shops that have cooperative relationships with the hotel.

After all, this is safe and risk-free.

As for hot spring hotels, generally speaking, there are very few such services because these places are the most strictly managed.

Only small hotels in remote areas like Matsuo Village, if run by a single female proprietress, will provide some special services that are popular with everyone.

Of course, it certainly wouldn't be called that kind of deal in name.

After all, the female bosses insisted that a single woman like me was having an affair with a customer, and from a legal perspective, there was nothing they could do about it.

Although these plots sound like the book, they are actually just for money.

The place is already very remote, so how can we attract customers without offering some special services?

Nanaya himself had never been to such a hotel, but he heard from Shiki that the mature women there felt more charming than the young ladies in Ginza.

After all, there is a gap in age and experience.

Nanaya felt a little itchy after hearing what this guy said, but unfortunately he didn't have the time to go to the small hotel, so he had to give up.

However, no matter how regretful Nanaya was, Zaosu would never do such a thing. He was the owner of a legitimate hot spring hotel, although he had been to such hotels to get materials.

Nanaya was chatting with the boss of Zaosu, while the others were enjoying their meal.

Especially Shiki, who was screaming from the first bite.

"Wow, it tasted great on the first day! It tastes completely different from what I've eaten before!"

By the way, everyone changed into yukata at this time, even Shion who was leaving from Nanaya's house was no exception.

"Really, it's delicious!"

Illya also praised it highly and she seemed to enjoy the food very much.

"After all, they are made directly from the place of production. This kind of freshness is very rare." Sera nodded in praise. She was also very satisfied with the food.

Rin said with some concern: "It's a bit too much, can you finish it..."

"It's okay!" Shiki said with a laugh, "Give me whatever you can't finish, I'll take care of it all."

"Elder sister."

Ori reminded Shiki coldly: "Have you forgotten that you had a stomachache before? And you can't lose weight! Just finish your portion!"

"Why?"

"If you have any objections, then eat half!"

As he said this, Ori started to touch the things in the bowl.

"Don't! Don't!"

Shiki quickly covered the table in front of her like a child protecting her own.

Lily picked up a piece of pickled vegetable and put it into her mouth. The sweet taste made her eyes narrow. "Hmm~ This pickled vegetable tastes good. It has a very Japanese flavor."

"This should be the unique recipe of Zaozu owner, right?" Ryan said as he picked up a piece of pickled vegetable. "The color is beautiful, and the taste is also unique. It seems that you can't eat it in other places in Japan."

"Oh, this lady is very knowledgeable." Zaosu said proudly, rubbing his chin, "This is our Zaosu's secret recipe passed down from generation to generation."

"Nanaya directly revealed the secret: "It's just vinegar."

"Hey! That's not just any vinegar. It's homemade vinegar made from the spring water in the mountains near our village! You can't get it in other places!" Zaosu said to Nanaya, tempting him, "Boy, you've been away for so many years, don't you miss this vinegar?"

Nanaya rolled his eyes; "It's just so-so. I don't have any special feelings about sour things."

"Hey! Nanaya, give your fellow countrymen some face in front of outsiders!"

The boss of Zaosu's loud shouting made everyone else present laugh.

In a corner a little further away, the Kiryu couple and the Hanai couple were talking in low voices.

Because of Nanaya, they often call each other.

Although it was the first time we met, we were not strangers to each other.

Similarly, because of Nanaya, the two couples have a lot of topics to talk about.

Especially some things about Nanaya's childhood, the Kiryu couple did not give their son any face at all and told everything to the Hanai couple.

"So that kid has been so cocky since he was a kid?" Hanai Ryuichi said, pinching his beard. "I thought it was a bad habit he had from his time at Tokyo University of the Arts."

"That child has been like this since he was young. He thinks everyone is inferior to him. Although he maintains the most basic etiquette when communicating with people other than us, he rarely gets to know them better."

Kiryu Maya said with some distress, "Although his grades have always been good, he is very withdrawn, and I don't see him having friends to play with."

"He stared at the TV screen watching movies all day. If it weren't for that child Sakura later, I would have thought Nanaya had a communication disorder."

As she spoke, Kiryu Maaya held her face with one hand, which made her look very distressed.

"Auntie, is the Sakura you are talking about Nanaya's ex-girlfriend?"

Shion, who had been eavesdropping, immediately became interested. She leaned forward slightly and acted as if she was listening attentively.

"Shion..."

Maya Kiryu seemed a little hesitant. She didn't know whether she should tell the other party about her son's ex-girlfriend.

What if I make this substitute daughter-in-law unhappy?

Shion smiled sweetly: "It's okay, Aunt Maya. I really want to know what kind of person this woman is who made Nanaya look at her differently. Nanaya has always kept silent about this."

"Haha, isn't that a given? What man would discuss another woman he has a close relationship with in front of a pretty girl?"

"Honey!"

Maya Kiryu glared at her husband fiercely, signaling him not to talk too much.

Shion did not comment on what Kenichi Kiryu said. The smart girl just smiled sweetly.

But Maya Kiryu felt an invisible pressure, which made her involuntarily say what she was thinking.

"Sakura, she's a very gentle girl. If I really have to describe her, she's probably the perfect Yamato Nadeshiko. Now that I think about it, I always feel that it's a bit unfair to let that child go with my child."

Having said this, Maya looked at Nanaya who was chatting and laughing with other girls and snorted.

"Did they have a good relationship before?"

"That's very good. We are inseparable. Just like me and your uncle Kenichi...Ah, I shouldn't say these things." Knowing that she had said something wrong, Kiryu Maya quickly waved her hands at Shion.

"It's okay, I don't mind." Shion said very generously, "But Aunt Maya, I want to know one thing. Is that girl named Sakura in love with Nanaya? I want to hear the truth."

"I think so." Maya said awkwardly, "If they hadn't moved away from Odani Village due to their family relationship, I think she would still be with Nanaya."

"I see."

Shion was laughing happily like a little fox, which made Kiryu Maya a little confused about the reason.

"Sister Shion, let's go together!"

Lily, who was originally chatting with everyone, suddenly ran over and hugged Shion's arm.

"Where to go?"

Shion, who had been chatting with the Kiryu couple, didn't pay any attention to what the others were saying.

"Of course we should all go to the hot springs together!"

Lily replied excitedly.
