It snowed all night, and it didn't clear up until early the next morning. Maybe I knew that today was an important day!
Although the streets are covered with thick white snow, people's enthusiasm has not diminished by half because of this. Among the bustling crowds, some are just happy and longing for a better life next year.
There were people coming and going. Either the shouts of people doing business on the street, or the whole family going to the market, and laughter interspersed among the crowds of pedestrians.
Occasionally, I pass by a trolley buying tempura, noodles, fried vegetables, or various meat products. The fragrant smell seduce the appetite of passers-by.
"Boss, bring me tempura, um, I want one of each kind!"
Wearing an orange cotton coat and a light yellow scarf, Yoruichi Shihōin smiled and stretched out his hand to point at the trolley filled with various types of tempura, asking for what he liked.
"Okay! Girl!"
The person who bought the tempura was a woman in her fifties. She agreed and quickly put the tempura into a bag made of brown paper.
"Thank you boss!"
Taking the tempura bag, Yoruichi Shihōin said with a smile, turned around and continued walking forward.
Shadow put down the money in the aunt's hand and followed quickly. She was dressed in a dark purple samurai uniform, with Zanpakutō inserted diagonally on her back waist. Her arms with fingerless gloves were folded in front of her chest. Her angular face showed a consistent indifferent expression.
The winter sunshine shines on the earth, bringing a little bit of warmth to people and melting the snow. Although the weather is still very cold, people who are approaching the new year cannot feel the cold at all in the festive atmosphere.
Yoruichi Shihōin kept digging his fingers into the bag. While eating, Yoruichi Shihōin looked at the stalls on both sides of the street with interest, buying things from time to time. Shadow followed closely behind him, and the items in his arms were increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
However, looking at Yoruichi Shihōin who was in high spirits, Shadow shook his head, bought a carriage and put all his things on it.
"Lady Yoruichi, please slow down!" Shadow said helplessly.
"You should hurry up!" Yoruichi Shihōin turned around and replied unceremoniously.
"Yes, Lady Yoruichi!"
Shadow was weak, and the figure walking forward quickly stopped suddenly when he turned his head inadvertently...
······
At the end of the year, it also means that it is Yoruichi Shihōin's birthday, so at this time, Shadow not only has to prepare sumptuous meals, but also birthday cakes. Although it is a bit hard, as long as Yoruichi Shihōin can be happy, it will be all worth it for Shadow.
The night is extraordinarily dark tonight, and the silver-white moon illuminates the pure white snow as if it were covered with a layer of gauze. It looks very beautiful...
The food was all ready, only the pastries were still steaming. I looked at the time and saw that it was almost New Year's Eve.
Shadow was wearing a dark purple kimono, standing on the corridor in front of the house with his hands behind his back, looking at Yoruichi Shihōin in the yard.
"Lady Yoruichi!"
"Hey! Shadow!" Rubbing his red nose from the cold, Yoruichi Shihōin trotted over; "Is it time for dinner already!"
"Not even close!" Shadow shook his head.
"Really!" Yoruichi Shihōin grinned in displeasure; "Then why did you call me!"
"It's not time to eat yet!" Shadow's mouth curved slightly; "But, another day has arrived!"
"Hey!" Yoruichi Shihōin was stunned for a moment. What did it mean, but she didn't wait for her to ask.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Continuous sounds resounded in the sky, and sudden rays of light of various colors shone in the surrounding area, illuminating the surrounding area.
Yoruichi Shihōin turned around in surprise and looked at the sky. Fireworks all over the sky were constantly rising into the sky and suddenly bursting into brilliant colors. Every time the fireworks exploded, different patterns appeared, including fish and birds...
The explosion of fireworks lasted for a full hour. The last two fireworks exploded in the air, but there were no brilliant colors. Only one firework formed the face of Yoruichi Shihōin in the air, and the other, in the night sky, wrote two big words "Happy Birthday!"
"Lady Yoruichi, happy birthday!"
Taking out the gift box that I saw and bought yesterday, Shadow chuckled and shouted loudly, her eyes gradually filled with tenderness and pampering.
"······"
After inhaling and feeling a bit sore in the nose, Yoruichi Shihōin took the small box and chuckled, "What kind of fireworks are those! They are far worse than those made by Kukaku!"
"This..." Shadow shook his head in distress and whispered; "I have practiced for a long time, but I can only do this level. Sorry, Lady Yoruichi..."
"Big idiot!"
A sudden voice interrupted Shadow's words. Yoruichi Shihōin lowered his head slightly and gently added, "Thank you!"
"Ah!" Shadow was stunned and shrank his head; "If Lady Yoruichi said that, Shadow is really..."
"That's why I said you are a big fool!"
"Yes... is that so?"
"What is this year's gift?"
Curling his lips, Yoruichi Shihōin opened the box and was stunned. He saw two hairbands, one purple and one red, quietly placed at the bottom of the small box.
"Lady Yoruichi's hair is ready for a hair tie!" Shadow said softly; "I think it suits Lady Yoruichi's very well, so..."
"Shadow!" Yoruichi Shihōin suddenly spoke, picked up the purple hair tie and handed it over; "Tie it on for me!"
"Ah! Hmm!"
Shadow nodded, took the hair tie, moved two steps to the right behind Yoruichi Shihōin, gently held up the purple hair on that end with his hand, and took out a comb with the other hand, combed it carefully and slowly, tied up the high ponytail, wrapped it with a hair tie, then tied the hair tie and tied it up.
"That's it, Lady Yoruichi!"
Hearing Shadow's voice, Yoruichi Shihōin slowly turned around. Her high ponytail and forehead hair were naturally parted on both sides. Her wheat-colored face was even more reflected. Under the silver-white moonlight, she looked mature and charming.
"How's it going! Shadow, does it look good!"
Yoruichi Shihōin opened his mouth with a slight smile, as if even his words were full of temptation.
"Yeah! Yeah!" nodded, Shadow looked away with a slightly red face.
Seeing Shadow's reaction, Yoruichi Shihōin's golden eyes turned in a circle, his hand touched the ponytail behind him, and a sly smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "It turns out it doesn't look good! Then you might as well cut your hair short!"
"No... no need!" Hearing this, Shadow turned around immediately, put his hand into a fist to his mouth, coughed twice, and said in a low voice, "Lady Yoruichi, that one, it's beautiful! Ah! I'm going to see if the pastries are ready."
With that said, Shadow ran out quickly, as eagerly as if something terrible was chasing him afterwards.
"Super idiot!"
Seeing Shadow running away in embarrassment, Yoruichi Shihōin couldn't help but muttered, with a hint of joy and a hint of shyness in his golden eyes.
