Naruto: I, who didn't want to be hacked to pieces, saved the ninja world.

While having dinner at the Hyuga family home.

At the same time, the house of Baiyun Qingye was also filled with a fragrant aroma.

Uzuki Yugao and Shirakumo Aoba were preparing dinner in the kitchen.

Tenten, Ino, and Sakura huddled together in the living room, whispering among themselves.

They seem to be discussing something, but the atmosphere of the discussion is probably not very good.

After all, the expressions on the faces of the three of them were not very pleasant.

Uzuki Yugao and Shirakumo Aoba, who were in the kitchen, naturally didn't have much time to pay attention to them.

"I didn't expect you to know so much, Xiao Qingye."

Uzuki Yugao skillfully flipped the fish in the pot over and casually took out some seasonings from the cupboard and sprinkled them on top.

She started coming over to take care of Baiyun Qingye when she was around ten years old. It could be said that she was more familiar with this family than Baiyun Yeshan and Baiyun Qingye themselves.

"Haha, I heard all that from those ninjas at the ramen shop."

Shirokumo Aoba offered a slightly embarrassed explanation, but because of the wisps of white smoke rising, Uzuki Yugao didn't notice.

"Is that so? It seems that ramen shops are indeed good places to gather information. I should go there more often in the future."

"Otherwise, after being a ninja for so long, how come I didn't know about the Third Hokage and Elder Danzo..."

Uzuki Yugao paused for a moment, somewhat embarrassed to speak, and changed the subject.

"I wonder who spread the rumor. If the Third Generation Lords find out, they'll be in for a beating."

"Heh, I guess he'll commit suicide with eight shurikens piercing his back."

"Huh?"

The two continued their conversation, back and forth, which had become a regular occurrence in their lives.

While the two were cooking, the three people in the living room also gave up their discussion and stood outside the kitchen, peeking out to observe the scene inside.

Just as Shirokumo Aoba was skillfully scooping the stir-fried green peppers and meat from the pot into a bowl, she noticed them.

It's worth mentioning that while most of the green peppers in Muye are bitter and sour, you can still find some that are spicy, though not very spicy.

What are you doing?

Baiyun Qingye looked at the three people peeking out like kittens with amusement.

"It smells so good!"

Ino was the first to react. She took a deep breath and then ran over with a look of pure bliss.

He stood right next to the stove, leaning on the counter, tiptoeing, and peering into the bowl, trying to see what Baiyun Qingye was cooking.

Because Bai Yun Qingye was standing on a small platform, otherwise, given his current height, it would have been difficult for him to flip the iron pot.

Ino, who was a head shorter than him, could barely see the food in her bowl on the table.

"Wow, what is this? What is this? Is this a green pepper? This is the first time I've ever seen green peppers stir-fried like this."

Ino's eyes were full of curiosity, more like a curious kitten peeking out.

However, Shirakumo Aoba's cooking method of directly stir-frying and tossing food in a wok is quite rare here, especially for a girl like Ino from a large family.

Bai Yunqingye wanted to explain a few more words, but before he could even open his mouth...

Tenten ran over right after and pinned down Ino, who was sticking to him and peeking around.

"Don't disturb Aoba while she's cooking."

"I'm just curious about what Aoba made; it smells so good." Ino started to struggle.

"no!"

Tian Tian increased the pressure, saying, "You're too short. Moving around will affect Qingye. I'll tell you after I've finished looking at it."

puff.

Both Shirokumo Aoba and Uzuki Yugao couldn't help but burst out laughing.

What are you laughing at?

Tian Tian looked at the two of them with puzzlement, while simultaneously suppressing Ino.

"I thought of something happy."

"What is it?"

"Tonight's dinner might be the first you've ever had in your life."

"Really? But I remember green peppers are really hard to eat."

"That's because you're using different green peppers. But green peppers are very nutritious, so you shouldn't be picky about what you eat."

As she spoke, Baiyun Qingye took a spoon, scooped up a little bit, blew on it, and after it cooled down a bit, brought it close to Tiantian's mouth.

"Tian Tian, ​​would you like to try some?"

Tian Tian's big eyes sparkled, and she was about to open her mouth.

She then discovered that she seemed to be being dragged away by something, preventing her from getting closer.

"Ino!"

Tian Tian was a little angry; she hadn't expected this guy to cause trouble at this time.

When Ino saw Tenten stop, she rushed up to try and intercept him, but Tenten stopped her.

Watching the two begin to wrestle, Baiyun Qingye, holding a spatula, was somewhat speechless.

But then he saw Sakura standing at the door, unsure whether to come in.

The two exchanged a glance.

Baiyun Qingye gave her a questioning look.

Then Sakura happily skipped over the two of them and ran in.

With a "whoosh," she ate the slice of meat from Baiyun Qingye's spoon in one bite.

Sakura tasted it carefully, then her eyes lit up.

"It's spicy, salty, and a little bit sweet—it's so delicious!"

Baiyun Qingye was in a very good mood after receiving the praise and said with a smile.

"If Sakura likes it, then you'd better eat two extra bowls of rice later."

"Uh-huh!"

Sakura squinted her eyes, but soon she suddenly felt a chill.

Sakura stiffly turned her head and saw that her best friends Ino and Tenten were already standing behind her, with flames seemingly rising from their backs.

"Sakura!"

"Haruno! Sakura!"

Then Sakura was dragged out by the two men and subjected to a series of "inhumane" tortures.

Sakura's no misfortune!

There was nothing that Shirakumo Aoba could do about it.

Suddenly, only Shirakumo Aoba and Uzuki Yugao were left in the kitchen.

Baiyun Qingye finished plating the stir-fried green peppers and meat, and planned to cook another side dish.

Suddenly I felt a finger tap my cheek.

Bai Yunqingye turned her head curiously, only to find a pair of chopsticks stuffed into her mouth.

"Well!"

Just as he was still wondering, he tasted the fish on his chopsticks.

"Is it tasty?"

"good to eat!"

After swallowing the fish, Baiyun Qingye didn't hold back her praise and gave a thumbs up.

Uzuki Yugao also laughed, but when Shirokumo Aoba turned around and started cooking again, she sighed inwardly and looked at the little boy she had watched grow up with complicated eyes.

Little Green Leaf, you're really popular!

Seeing how close Baiyun Qingye and Tiantian were, sometimes Uzuki Yugao would have the thought of locking them up or kicking them out.

soon.

"The food is ready, let's eat!"

Baiyun Qingye watched the three people fidgeting on the sofa.

"Go wash your hands and get your rice."

But when he saw Sakura's smiling face with tears streaming down her face, he couldn't help but add another sentence.

"Sakura, go wash your face first."
