Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha is not motivated.

Chapter 116 Madam, please respect yourself

At the Uchiha Clan’s market, under a canopy outside a store
"Please enjoy~ah~"

A voluptuous, purple-haired woman stared at the upright Uchiha Gin with her beautiful eyes, ignoring Uchiha Hikari who was about to explode beside her, and brought shaved ice filled with honey syrup to his mouth.

"Gin-san, why aren't you eating today?"

The woman tilted her head in confusion, tucked a strand of her long purple hair behind her ear, and scooped out some shaved ice mixed with syrup from the spoon in her hand.
Blown by the hot air, it melted into a sticky liquid and dripped down the woman's white lotus-like arms into the forward-leaning ravine.

Uchiha Silver Eyes observed his mouth, nose, and heart. His pair of dead fish eyes did not dare to move at all under the invisible pressure of the girl behind him.

No matter how the plump and juicy woman in front of him acted, he still had the expression of an old monk in meditation.

"Ala ala~ What's wrong with Gin-san? Is it too hot? Did he get heatstroke?"

The woman, who exuded a mature and charming aura, saw Uchiha Gin, who was completely different from usual.
She stuck out her pink tongue to lick the syrup dripping from her forearm, and at the same time pressed her entire head against him, trying to measure Uchiha Gin's body temperature with her white forehead.

"Ayin!!!!"

The mercury cloak could barely hold back the fury of Uchiha Hikaru. Countless black air rose from the girl's body. Just as it was about to explode, a familiar voice sounded from behind them, with a tone full of helplessness.
"Mother! Please stop teasing Mr. Yin."

Uchiha Jiji, who also had purple hair, came out of the room, wearing a cute apron for work.
Her long hair was tied into a simple and convenient ponytail and draped behind her. She was holding a plate of cold shaved ice in her hands, her eyes filled with a look of disappointment.

"boom!"

Putting the shaved ice in front of Uchiha Madara and Izuna who were watching the fun, the blue-faced girl turned around and chopped the mature woman's head with a knife, and said in a slightly cold tone,
"Don't do things that would disturb others!"

"Woooooo~~~"

The woman covered her head, her beautiful eyes puffed up with tears in her eyes, and waved her arms, starting to act like a naive little girl.
"Wow, little Zhili has grown up and actually treats Mom like this. Have you forgotten who raised you with so much hardship?"

"Shut up!"

The girl stabbed her mother again without mercy. She was already accustomed to her mother's shameless behavior and did not feel any sympathy at all.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Yin, I didn't take good care of my mother."

The sensible girl Zhizhi bowed to Uchiha Gin with an apologetic look, while holding her mother's head, she continued in a cold tone,

"Mother, if you don't apologize to Mr. Yin and the others, I will be troubled in the future."

After saying that, he was about to press the purple-haired woman's head to bow and apologize to Uchiha Gin.

"No, no, Xiao Zhili, I know Madam Yongmei is joking with me."

The two of them, who had known each other for a long time, naturally would not mind the woman's deliberate prank. Uchiha Gin quickly waved his hand, signaling the Uchiha governance not to make a big deal out of it, and that he and the lady were just close friends.

"Really, Xiaozhi, do you have any thoughts about Gin-san as well?"

The woman who was punished by the knife did not stop. Instead, she looked up with great interest, looked at her daughter and asked excitedly,

"You're actually going to be an enemy of Mom-chan, but Gin-san is going to be your dad-chan's man!"

"boom!!!"

This time, the girl directly picked up the plate of shaved ice in her hand and hit the woman who was talking nonsense on the head. As a puff of green smoke rose, the woman hugged her head in grievance and ran back to the house with tears in her eyes.

"Woo woo woo~ Xiao Zhili is a big idiot!"

"I'm sorry, mother is like this, always talking nonsense."

The girl turned her head and spoke coldly to Uchiha Gin and the others with her back to them, but the sharp-eyed Uchiha Hikaru saw a red earlobe from the side of the girl's ponytail, indicating that the girl's heart was not as calm as her words.

"There is one more. I will go in and make it first."

Uchiha Jiji turned his back to the crowd and walked back into the house without looking back, leaving everyone looking at each other in bewilderment.

"Ayin, who is that woman?"

Uchiha Hikaru, who hadn't figured out the situation yet, saw that everyone present had a look of indifference on their faces, so he couldn't help but ask the victim, Uchiha Ginfa,

"Well, Madam Yongmei is the mother of Xiao Zhili. Since Banjian is familiar with Zhili, our two families have become close friends after a few visits."

Uchiha Gin scratched his curly black hair, his face full of calmness. Yes, my wife and I are innocent. I am unmarried and she is a widow. How could anything shameful happen to us?

"So this is ah!"

Judging from the woman's skilled performance just now, these two people definitely have some unclear relationship. Uchiha Guang squeezed his numb fist and forced himself to comfort himself.
Since the other party is Xiao Zhili's mother, even if Yin is extremely hungry, he will not make a move on a married woman, right?
"Poor little Zhili lost his father when he was born. If it wasn't for his eldest cousin..."

Izuna, who was eating watermelon-flavored shaved ice at the side, couldn't suppress her inner urge to eat more watermelon, and mentioned Uchiha Jiji's life experience intentionally or unintentionally.

???

Uchiha Hikaru's eyes changed instantly, his hawk-like eyes stared at Uchiha Gin who lowered his head. For a moment, the overwhelming pressure overwhelmed him, causing Uchiha Gin, who was showing off his shaved ice, to shiver.

"That's right. I didn't expect that my cousin, who has always been lazy, would help Madam Yongmei fetch water in the middle of the night."

Uchiha Madara, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said something slowly, but it was not known whether it was a deliberate revenge.

Ah? ? ?
I didn't expect that you, a Shura in the ninja world with thick eyebrows and big eyes, would also be petty sometimes.

Uchiha Gin didn't know how to explain for a moment, so he had to cover his head and eat shaved ice, ignoring what the two said. "Haha, I didn't expect Gin to have such a special hobby!"

The girl with a dark face looked at Uchiha Gin, who was lowering his head and pretending to be an ostrich, with a sick look on her face, and her tone of voice seemed like a different person.

"Please don't say such misleading words. Although Mr. Yin seems to be out of tune, he is also an upright and good person."

Lifting the door curtain, the purple-haired girl holding the last portion of strawberry shaved ice said calmly,

Uchiha Jiji placed the strawberry shaved ice in front of the strange-looking "Uchiha Guang", and looked at this girl with a somewhat surprised temperament who was completely different from yesterday, and tilted his head in confusion.

"Senior Guang, are you feeling unwell?"

"Xiao Guang is wearing too much. He might have heat stroke."

Uchiha Gin noticed that something was wrong with the girl, so he temporarily put it aside and explained to her, "Is this the dark personality usurping the throne again?"

"It's really hot today, Senior Guang, please eat quickly. Our shaved ice is famous for its deliciousness on this street."

Uchiha Ji could only see that the color of "Uchiha Guangmian" was not right, so he believed Uchiha Gin's words and began to strongly recommend his own shaved ice.

"Uchiha Hikaru", who was about to explode, looked at the food in front of him that he had never seen before. With the mentality of giving it a try, he immediately scooped up a big spoonful and threw it directly into his mouth.

"No! Eating like that will..."

Seeing the girl's brave operation, Uchiha Jiji, who was well aware of the power of his shaved ice, hurried to stop her, but it was too late.

"Um~~~"

"Uchiha Guang" who had just come out felt a chill running from head to toe. After repeating this several times, the chill finally hit the top of her head, freezing her consciousness instantly, and then she fell back into darkness.

"Um, what happened to me just now?"

Uchiha Hikaru, whose head hurt from the shaved ice, came to her senses. She had no idea what had just happened. She looked at the strawberry shaved ice that had been scooped out of her and asked with a hint of confusion,
"Look, it feels much better now."

Seeing the girl return to the state she had seen yesterday, Zhili smiled and said to the confused Uchiha Hikaru.

"Yes, it was the right decision to recommend your mother to open a cold drink shop."

Seeing the girl return to normal, Uchiha Gin breathed a sigh of relief and picked up the shaved ice in his hand as if to take credit, and explained the reason why the girl's family ran a cold drink shop.

"Yes, thank you Mr. Yin. If it weren't for your help, my mother would still be working hard for others."

Uchiha Jiji recalled the man who suddenly appeared in her house a few years ago.

He helped a mother and daughter who worked hard but received little pay to open this cold drink shop, so that he could have time to do formal training instead of running errands every day to supplement the family income.

"This is what I should do. After all, Xiaozhi works so hard."

While eating the shaved ice in his hand, Uchiha Gin recalled the stubborn figure of the girl in front of him.
In order to reduce the burden on the family, he worked day and night regardless of the weather, doing all kinds of troublesome tasks that others looked down upon.

The small body contained an indomitable strength, which made him unable to help but lend a hand.

Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was a little strange, the sensitive Uchiha Guang sensed something was wrong.

I thought this purple-haired guy wasn't a threat, but I didn't expect that they had such a past, and it was buy one get one free, a mother-daughter meal. In this situation, how could an average man resist?

"Actually~ I have something I want to ask you, Gin-san!"

At some point, the charming purple-haired woman appeared again. When Zhili saw his mother, he thought she was going to do something naughty again, so he stretched out his hand and prepared to punish his mother again.
"Stop making those weird requests!"

"Hehe, I'm talking about serious matters this time."

The woman dodged her daughter's knife with a sweet smile and turned her head, her charming face full of seriousness.

She only spoke to the man who had helped her without asking for anything in return with a sincere tone.
"Xiao Zhili is not young anymore. Her dream has always been to become an excellent ninja, but her father died early, and no one has ever taught her the formal skills of ninja, so."

The woman paused, with a hint of pleading in her seductive eyes.
"I hope Gin-san can take Kojima as his apprentice and train her to be an excellent ninja."

After saying that, she bowed deeply to Uchiha Gin, and her plump waist and buttocks were clearly visible in front of Uchiha Gin.

Uchiha Gin looked at the beautiful scenery in front of him and swallowed subconsciously.

The humble attitude of the woman in front of him made him fall into deep thought. The situation of all the major families was basically like this now.

Although the Uchiha clan has training facilities and has assigned special personnel to provide guidance and training, the deep-level skills of ninjas are still unknown.
For example, physical skills and ninjutsu are mostly passed down through blood ties, and children inheriting their parents' mantle is the normal way of inheritance in this era.

As for Uchiha Jiji, although her father was a ninja, he died early, and her mother was an ordinary person and could not give her any guidance on the path of becoming a ninja.

In this situation, if no one is willing to teach him everything, then Uchiha may not be able to achieve success in his lifetime.

When Uchiha Jiji heard her mother's words, she was also stunned. Being precocious, she had seen through the rules of ninja inheritance long ago. She originally wanted to rely on herself to explore the future path forward.

I didn't expect that my mother, who usually looks out of touch, would humbly beg others for my sake.

All of a sudden, endless warmth surged in her heart. It turned out that her mother was not the kind of superficial woman who only cared about finding a man for herself.

"Quick, Zhili, what are you standing there for? Come over here and kowtow to your new daddy!"
