Chapter 434 Don't cheat children's money like Jiraiya
Leisure time is the easiest thing to make people sleepy. Nara Quini's holiday this year was very comfortable. Nara Miri did not force him to go to the Fire Temple to pray for blessings, and there were no important tasks to do.
Stay at home, occasionally visit Jiraiya in the hospital, and then ask the shadow clone to send red envelopes to his employees. After returning, he makes plans for the new semester, so that every day will be like the same day.
This kind of life is boring, as if I was wasting my time, but Nara Shin-Ming enjoys this boredom and leisure, it is probably hard to find in the ninja world. Even the toads in Miki Mountain may not be as leisure as Nara Shin-Ming.
Until Itachi, the child, came to see him, Nara Kami lying on the sofa, enjoying the drink he brought, took a sip, watched the TV, and asked casually: "Is there anything wrong?"
"Teacher, I want to apply for early graduation and go on a mission with Brother Kai and the others."
Hearing Itachi's words, Nara Qu Ming turned around slightly, looked at Itachi, and asked from the bottom of his heart: "Are you wrong? You are only seven years old after the New Year. Isn't it good to stay in the ninja school?"
Itachi thought about it, then shook his head and said, "But I can't become stronger at Ninja School. I heard that Brother Kakashi had graduated from Ninja School at the age of five and a half. Why did I still have to go to Ninja School when I was seven?"
"Iruka was still in the ninja school until she was thirteen years old. Why didn't you learn from him?"
Nara Tamari retorted, Itachi pursed his lips, as if he was thinking about an adult, then shook his head firmly and said, "Senior Iruka is only a thirteen-year-old, and I am better than him now."
Nara Kazunaga was powerless to refute this reason. Of course, if he really didn't want Itachi to graduate, there were many ways, such as increasing the difficulty of early graduation assessment, and not reaching the level of the way that the Kazunagi could not graduate early.
But that's too deliberate, and graduation is the same as resignation. People who have the idea of resigning cannot work with peace of mind. Nara Kazuna also thinks Itachi may have lost his enthusiasm for studying at the ninja school.
He waved, Itachi walked up to him very sensible. Nara Shimizu rubbed Itachi's head with his hands, and then said, "I can let you graduate, but..."
"But what?"
"Your ninja mission will not be to go out of the village to perform missions. As long as you graduate, you can only receive two tasks, either take care of Sasuke or take care of Naruto."
"Why do you think this is the case?"
Hearing Nara Luming's words, Itachi became a little aggrieved. He was thinking of Kakashi, Maitkai and others, leaving the village to carry out missions, killing the rebel ninjas, saving companions, and at the worst, protecting a grand prince or noble.
But Nara Kazunaga actually said that he would be the nanny of Sasuke and Naruto after graduation. Although Sasuke is indeed very cute, Naruto's silly looks very cute, and he thinks itather Ninja!
Nara Qu Ming looked at Itachi's appearance and began to laugh. In his opinion, Itachi's age should be studying honestly and having fun after school, but the child was too precocious.
Perhaps it was because he had been on the battlefield. Although Itachi did not have the ability to distinguish at that time, he also felt the aura of the battlefield. In addition, the subtle infection of the Uchiha clan's values made him very pursuing ninjas.
Perhaps Itachi graduated early and would be called Konoha/Uchiha, and he thought he was a genius ninja, but Nara Shin-nara did not want to take risks because he became a ninja and it was obviously not capable of avoiding risks.
Even Kakashi and others today only have the ability to avoid risks in Nara Quini's opinion. It is not enough to say how strong they are, at least there are still many people in the ninja world who can defeat them.
Even the fourth generation of Raikage Ai and Riki Tsuki, who were underestimated by Hakumizu and Nara Tatsuma, were much stronger than Kakashi and the others. The ninja world was still dangerous for them, let alone Itachi?
Itachi may have met the standard of graduating from ninja school, and is even stronger than some squinin, but that's it. Perhaps seeing blood will make him grow quickly, but Nara Kame doesn't want him to see blood so early.
The battlefield will change everything about people, strength, cognition, experience, and even their nature. Not everyone can walk for half their lives like Bo Feng Mizuno, and still be able to keep their hearts at the sun.
More ninjas gradually lose their minds and become a machine that only knows how to perform tasks in constant fighting. Why is this happening? It’s very simple. When you become a ninja, your mind is not mature enough.
Even if they stayed in Ninja School for six years, they were only twelve years old, and those who entered the school late were only thirteen years old. Children of twelve and three years old would be thrown onto the battlefield immediately once the war broke out.
In peaceful times, it may not be so urgent, but after one or two years of training, they will also take the Zhongnin exam. After becoming Zhongnin, they are sent out to perform some advanced tasks, involving killing, calculating, undercover, etc.
The mind is in this process. Even in the past, including in some villages today, ninjas whose minds and human nature are destroyed will become excellent ninjas.
What kind of ninja's duty is to complete tasks, and it feels disgusting to say it. Nara Shin-Ming doesn't want Itachi to become such a person. If you want to see the dark side, wouldn't it be enough to see him Nara Shin-Ming?
Nara Shimizu was not dark enough? And seeing that he was not in danger of his life, why did he have to think about graduating early and become a ninja with his head hanging around his waist?
As for becoming stronger... Konoha doesn't need to rely on a child of a few years to show her strength. After puberty, she has had several loves, and she realizes that she will no longer love her anymore and is becoming more mature. Isn't it better to consider becoming stronger?
How old a child has not even opened his body. How much chakra can he have? How strong can he have? What kind of children in childhood can be a salted fish that is open and open, why do they have to fight for their lives?
However, looking at Itachi's depressed look, Nara Shiming still felt a little reluctant. He sat up, pressed Itachi to his side, and said:
"Itachi, the teacher doesn't let you graduate, it's my hard work. Think about it, you are my disciple. If you graduate early, what would others think? What if they think I can't teach my children?
‘Even Nara Lumine’s disciples don’t go to school, it must be because there is a problem with the education system’. Do you hope others will say this to the teacher in the future? Teachers and villages have paid for the reform of the ninja school, don’t you know how much they have done?”
Hearing Nara Shimizu's words, Itachi's grievance gradually subsided and became ashamed. He said, "Sorry, teacher, I didn't think of this, I will continue to go to school."
Nara Shimizu was relieved to see Itachi so sensible. He didn't feel guilty about lying Itachi. You know, this is the darkness of the ninja. If you can't even see these clearly, then Itachi is really not suitable for graduation.
"It's right that you can think so. Okay, the teacher has gone to cook for you. Your teacher's wife and Grandma Miri are not here, so we can only eat simple ones."
Nara Qu Ming rubbed Itachi's head and stood up. However, Itachi did not mean to let Nara Qu Ming cook. He stood up nervously, took out a stack of red envelopes from his arms, and said anxiously:
"Teacher, on the way, many uncles and aunts sent me red envelopes. I'll treat you to lunch today, so don't eat at home."
Nara Quini, who was facing away from Itachi, showed a successful smile. What does Yekura and Nara Miri don’t want to cook by themselves? The days after they went to the Fire Temple, Nara Quini had never even entered the kitchen.
The purpose is to let Itachi pay money. Perhaps no one looks down on this little money, but Nara Shimizu just likes it. Seeing others pay money, it is happier than making money by itself.
"Well, since you are so dedicated, let's go eat ramen."
Nara Qu Ming quickly sorted out his expression, restrained his smile, and looked like "I'm very relieved" and took Itachi out.
The New Year is a holiday for most people, but some people cannot. If everyone really has a holiday, the whole society will fall into a state of disorder.
The chefs in the restaurant are one of them. Many families, in order to reward their wives and mothers who have been busy for a year, choose to have their holidays on some festivals.
The New Year is a very typical festival. Many families choose to go out to eat during the New Year. Therefore, many restaurants will not close during the New Year because they can make a lot of money.
When I arrived at the Yile Ramen Restaurant, it was the meal time. Although it was not as lively as some of the larger restaurants, I still had to queue up. Yile was busy inside. Nara Shiming thought about it, but he didn't go in and asked for a seat.
With Itachi, they lined up in the back of the team. The two of them were still very recognizable. During this period, some people proposed the idea of letting Nara Shizumi line up in front, but Nara Shizumi refused.
After all, those who give up their positions may be willing to do so, but some others may not think so. They may think "a richest man/ninja actually competes for the position with us civilians."
If it were Nara Kamemiya alone, he wouldn't care about these gazes, but it would be different with Itachi. Although the Uchiha clan's reputation has gradually recovered in recent years, stereotyped prejudice is not so easy to break.
If you queue up, you may have to wait for some time, but you can avoid such unnecessary things.
When it was the two of them, Nara Kumai said, "Two servings of char siu turtle bone ramen, the first serving of ramen requires half a portion of noodles, double serving of char siu, and the other serving is not soup, just mix the noodles with char siu sauce."
Hearing Nara Qu Ming’s unique custom menu, he kept lowering his head to cook noodles and finally raised his head, opened a crack in his eyelids, and then said excitedly:
"Mr. Lu Ming, I'm really sorry. I'm too busy to see you. Please sit and wait, and I'll bring it to you later."
Nara Kami nodded, looked at the girl who was sitting on a high stool, staring at the girl who was cooking noodles with her hands, and said, "Is this your daughter? It looks about the same age as Itachi."
He nodded with a smile and said, "Yes, it's called Calamari. Her mother has been hospitalized again these days. I'm not at ease at home, so I brought it."
Nara Qu Ming nodded, reached out to take a red envelope from Itachi's arms, opened it, took out the money and stuffed it back into Itachi's arms, and turned over a bottle of reused potion in his hand appeared in his hands.
After barely putting the potion in the red envelope, Nara Qu Ming put the red envelope on the counter and said, "Happy New Year, you can accept this red envelope, and then I don't plan to pay for the noodles today."
He was silent for a moment, then nodded solemnly. His wife's health had been very poor since she gave birth to calamus. The first time he met Nara Quini, Nara Quini gave him a tube of repair potion.
That made his wife much better, but after several years, he fell ill again. Although he knew that the potion was expensive, he didn't want to lose his wife by hand. He knew that the kindness could not be paid off, but he had to owe the kindness.
After receiving the potion at the counter, Nara Kami nodded with a smile and took Itachi to a table. The little girl who was originally sitting also ran over, holding a rag in her hand.
Nara Quini looked at the hand-kill, and nodded with laughter. Nara Quini did not stop Kasuma from wiping the table for them.
Because the store is small and the profit is low, you can't afford to hire an apprentice now. However, diners also understand that most of them eat buffets, pick up their own meals, and put the bowls in the sink after eating.
But the table is inevitably a bit dirty. Diners usually wipe it with tissues themselves, and they will serve the customer when they are not busy with their hands. But this is the first time I ask my daughter to help.
After wiping the table, Kasu returned to the counter. After a while, she struggled to carry a large meal plate and walked over carefully.
Jianpu's smile looked very good. She put down two bowls of noodles. She was about to bow and say goodbye. Nara Luming looked at the hand and then took out a red envelope and handed it to Jianpu and said:
"Thank you, little girl, put it away, don't let your father know, otherwise you will be confiscated."
Kasu originally wanted to ask about hand-killing, but after Nara Luming said this, she hesitated again. Children from poor families also had very little pocket money, and each of them was extremely precious.
But it is obviously wrong to take other people's money for no reason, so she was very hesitant. Seeing this, Nara Shizumi continued:
"Hold the New Year red envelope with confidence. After spending it, tell your father that it is best to buy a small gift first and give it to your parents, and then tell them about the red envelope so that they won't be angry."
When Jianpu heard this, he was confused for a while, but he still took the red envelope. She wanted to buy flowers for her mother. She thought about it for a long time. Now that she has the red envelope, she can buy it. As for her father... he should be very happy to give him a pair of long chopsticks, right?
Hunt the red envelope, and the calamus thought about it while returning to the counter. Nara Shimizu did not pay attention to the calamus anymore, but pointed to the ramen in front of the Itachi and said, "Eat it, have you changed your taste again?"
"I promised that I'll treat..."
"Let's talk about it when you make money. The teacher is not like you, Master Jiraiya, and you won't cheat children's money."
"...Okay, when I become a ninja, I will definitely be the first to treat you to a meal."
