The women glanced at Ningxia, then at the delicate, doll-like little girl clinging to Ningxia's sleeve.

"Ningxia, she's not the same one as last time..."

"Ahem, anyway, the hermit will be moving into the house."

Ningxia interrupted the question, and the women knew that Ningxia wouldn't do anything reckless, let alone abduct a little girl, so they could only surround and sized up Sheren.

Although he longed for friendship, Sheren hadn't been in contact with others for too long and was very shy, hiding behind Ningxia.

"cut!"

Naruko crossed her arms and turned her face away. She didn't have much affection for this peer who had inexplicably moved in, or rather... she always felt that the other person would steal Ningxia away.

"Welcome, I am Lord Ningxia's tool, you can call me Bai."

Shiro was more sensible than Naruko, and she warmly greeted everyone so that Toneri could feel at home.

Watching Bai assist her, Ningxia silently gave her a thumbs up in her heart. She truly deserved to be her most worry-free little girl.

Because there wasn't time to cook, Ningxia ordered takeout. As for the supplements originally intended for Xiyan, she'll have to treat them as a late-night snack later.

Kakashi went to find Shisui and Danzo to tell them that Ningxia had returned safely, in order to prevent Shisui from going crazy.

"Well……"

Naruko really likes ramen, mainly because before Ningxia came along, a five or six-year-old little girl like her couldn't cook!

In comparison, instant noodles, which can be eaten with just hot water, are relatively more convenient.

Now, however, she prefers Ningxia-style food to ramen or instant noodles, because it tastes like home.

Naruko slurped her noodles while staring at Toneri. This guy... is so suspicious! Ten out of ten, even nine out of ten, suspicious!

"Well……"

Sheren wasn't used to being watched, so she ate her noodles with her head down. Nine-Tails was the loudest protester. Even though she was freeloading, making her eat takeout was torture for a fox!

She wants to eat food made in Ningxia!

"Please don't cause trouble for your older brother..."

Sheren didn't like Kurama's noise and threatened her in a low voice. Kurama, who was still yawning, froze. For a moment, she felt like she was facing the old man of the Six Paths.

After dealing with the situation simply, Ningxia specifically explained things to Naruto and Kurama separately.

When Ningxia told Naruko about Sheren's background, Naruko, who was also an orphan with only one page on her household registration, felt a deep empathy for Sheren's experience.

When they went out, their attitude had changed, and they took the initiative to help their roommates get used to the new home.

"That guy... what's his relationship with the old man Rokudo?"

Kurama was originally a human who liked to shout "shameless!" After his chakra was purified twice, he became human again, and then he became lazy again and turned into a human.

"Oh, Toneri is a descendant of Hamura Otsutsuki, that is, a descendant of the younger brother of the Sage of Six Paths."

"Wh...what!?"

Nine-Tails was dumbfounded. How could a descendant of the Six Paths old man's brother suddenly appear and even move into Ningxia's house?

"Alright, nothing will happen to Sheren, you don't need to worry about me."

As Ningxia spoke, she began to pet the fox. Upon hearing Ningxia's words, the Nine-Tailed Fox denied it somewhat angrily:

"Human! I'm not worried... um... I won't worry about you! Don't touch my stomach..."

When Ningxia left with the limp Nine-Tails in her arms, Naruto and Toneri had gotten along very well, and the two had gone from being at odds to being harmonious.

For Naruko, the thought of her entire family dying was familiar, and she could also somewhat understand Toneri's loneliness.

Having confirmed that the three women were getting along well, Ningxia began preparing nourishing stews for Xiyan.

Nine-tailed fox lay lazily in my arms, its large tail swaying casually, secretly swallowing its saliva as it smelled the fragrance in the air.

She has a chakra body, but she also has a sense of taste and touch, so she can eat a little bit of everything.

After all, she was going to give Naruto chakra, so it was reasonable for her to receive some food and drink as payment.

"Is he/she still not ready...?"

Seeing Ningxia patiently humming a tune, Jiuwei couldn't bear to disturb her. Only after the song ended did she ask a question.

"Haste makes waste, Nine Lama."

Ningxia gently tapped Nine-Tailed Fox's head, but Nine-Tailed Fox was already used to it and complained in a low voice, "Who told you to make it smell so good? Save me a chicken leg later."

"Don't worry, there will be plenty of chicken drumsticks."

Ningxia looked at the medicinal chicken in the pot. He had specially prepared two portions, enough for everyone to share.

After being urged by Nine-Tailed Fox for what seemed like the umpteenth time, Ningxia finally spoke up to greet the women.

The first bowl, of course, was for Xiyan, followed by the three little ones, and then the long-awaited red bean glutinous rice balls.

In a joyful atmosphere, the women ate happily, and amidst laughter and chatter, Sheti experienced a feeling he had never had on the moon.

This is... not bad either.

To prevent Sheren from feeling uncomfortable, Ningxia came to her room, chatted with her, and told her some stories, which quickly lulled Sheren to sleep.

Just as she stepped out the door, Naruko stopped her. Ningxia touched her nose and continued telling her stories.

Looking at the sleeping golden retriever, Ningxia carefully left and went to Bai's room.

"Lord Ning... Lord Ningxia..."

Bai quickly hid under the covers, feeling embarrassed as if he had been caught sneaking snacks.

"Bai, would you like to hear a story?"

Ningxia smiled helplessly. She had already appeased the first two, so naturally there was no way she could leave Bai behind.

"Hmm... I want to hear Lord Ningxia sing 'The Big Family of Dumplings' before..."

Bai felt somewhat ashamed, as he was merely a tool, yet he secretly watched Ningxia and his attendants, as well as Mingzi, interact, and even fantasized about replacing them.

Now she wants Lord Ningxia to sing her a lullaby. She's really... a useless tool, only thinking of herself...

After putting the three little ones to sleep, Xiyan and Kakashi were already eyeing them covetously. Ningxia swallowed hard; a man can't run away at the last minute.

The arrival of the person in charge did not cause much of a stir. If one had to say something, it would be that after Ningxia helped her enroll in school, she developed a strange hostility towards Hinata.

It's like the thought, "You already have a happy and fulfilling family, yet you still want to steal my older brother. How can you be so selfish?!"

Although Hinata was encouraged by Ningxia to step out of her shell, she still had a shy personality. However, she would try her best to fight back every time Toneri provoked her.

June arrived peacefully, and Ningxia enjoyed a leisurely life, playing with visiting little girls, treating injured ninjas, and occasionally giving advice to his fathers, Fugaku and Hiashi.

Besides, Ye Cang succeeded. She was determined to take over Ningxia. She came over for one night and then covered for Kakashi and Yugao.

As for Zhishui... Ningxia doesn't expect her to be very smart, just honest and obedient is enough.

But just when Ningxia thought this kind of life would continue, she received some outrageous news: Itachi had gone blind.

In Konoha, during a time of peace, it's almost impossible to go blind with the Mangekyou Sharingan unless used recklessly, yet Itachi still managed to blind himself.

At the urging of Shisui, Satsuki, and Fugaku, Ningxia had no choice but to go and check on Itachi's condition.
