章 260: Zhang Miao's Business (Part 2)

Zhang Miao did not let Baki and Yashamaru into the house, not because Chiyo did not want to see these two people, but because Zhang Miao did not want to see Yashamaru.

In fact, Zhang Miao was very clear that with the degree of love Chiyo had for him, he only needed a word from him and Chiyo would happily let the two of them in.

But he did not intend to do so.

"People like Yashamaru no longer have the qualifications to stay by Gaara's side. Letting him stay away from me is the best result. This way, I can avoid getting Gaara hurt by him in the future and cut off my fetters. I have to take advantage of this time!"

This was what Zhang Miao decided and did. When Gaara woke up in the evening, Zhang Miao told him that Yashamaru had already gone on a mission.

After hearing Zhang Miao's words, although Gaara looked a little disappointed, he was soon attracted by the sumptuous dinner prepared by Zhang Miao.

After dinner, Zhang Miao played with him for a while and told a few fairy tales before putting him to sleep.

Gaara had a good sleep. he fell asleep after lying on the bed for a while. From the looks of it, he seemed to want to make up for all the sleepless nights he had for the past three years.

It was worth mentioning that although Gaara had slept quite a bit over the past two days, the dark circles under his eyes had not only not disappeared, but even had no signs of fading.

Zhang Miao speculated that these dark circles were not caused by lack of sleep, but by the influence of Shukaku, just like the six whiskers on Naruto's face.

Looking at the black circles on my Gaara's eyes, Zhang Miao could not help but laugh again.

"Actually, it's quite cute. He kinda looks like small pandas."

After Zhang Miao smiled, he climbed onto the bed and fell asleep with Gaara in his arms. However, this time he did not see Shukaku, but slept until dawn.

When the first ray of sunlight shone in through the window in the morning, the system notification rang in Zhang Miao's mind.

"[Ding - Congratulations to the boss for gaining the absolute trust of Gaara. Obtained 7-star Kage-level, Gaara Ninja Fragment x10]"

"[Ding - Congratulations to the boss for obtaining the reverence of Shukaku. Obtained 7-star Kage-level, Shukaku Ninja Fragment x10!]"

Hearing the two consecutive system notifications, Zhang Miao immediately opened his eyes, his eyes filled with doubt.

"It's fine to obtain Gaara's absolute trust, but why would I gain the respect of Shukaku? Could it be because I let Chiyo break the seal yesterday? Or because it thinks that I am Kurama?"

Zhang Miao thought for a while but still could not understand. He simply did not want to, but just as he turned around, he saw Gaara staring at him with wide eyes.

"Brother, morning... good morning!"

Seeing that he was a little nervous, Zhang Miao immediately smiled and rubbed his little head. "Haha, you're early too. Did you sleep well last night?"

"Yeah!" Hearing Zhang Miao's words, Gaara immediately nodded happily. "I slept well. Brother's bed is so warm!"

"Haha, as long as you like it!"

At this point, Zhang Miao got up from the bed and then reached out again to rub Gaara's little head. "Alright, big brother is going to make breakfast. You can sleep for a while longer!"

"No!" Hearing Zhang Miao's words, Gaara immediately shook my little head. "I want to help big brother!"

"Haha, my little panda is really amazing!"

Looking at his determined face, Zhang Miao could not help but laugh again. He smiled and nodded. "Alright, then go sweep the floor and wipe the table!"

Of course, Zhang Miao did not expect Gaara to be of any help, but he did not want to break his enthusiasm, so he gave him a simple errand.

Hearing that there was something to do, Gaara immediately agreed and ran out happily. Looking at his excited appearance, Zhang Miao grinned again.

"This little fellow seems to be in a good state of mind, so I am relieved. Well, I should prepare breakfast too!"

With that, Zhang Miao walked out of the door.

Then he rolled up his sleeves and went into the kitchen, but just as he entered the kitchen, he saw Chiyo cooking inside.

And from the heat coming out of the soup pot, she had been cooking for a long time.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Miao shook his head helplessly, and then went forward to take the spoon in her hand. "Grandma, you consumed a lot of chakra yesterday. You should rest more today!"

"Haha, it's fine!"

Hearing Zhang Miao's words, Chiyo waved at him with a smile, "That little bit of chakra, Granny will recover after sleeping for a while, and Granny also wants to cook for Little Ryu to eat. Quickly give me the spoon, hurry up!"

"Uh... okay!"

Seeing that Chiyo was serious, Zhang Miao did not say anything else. He could only return the spoon in his hand to him and also warned her, "Don't force yourself!"

"It's fine. Alright, don't be so long-winded. Cooking is a woman's business. Hurry up and get out!"

With that, Chiyo pushed Zhang Miao out of the kitchen and closed the kitchen door.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Miao could only shrug his shoulders helplessly.

"Sigh, looks like there is one less activity to pass the time!"

In the past, when he was in Konoha, in order to collect the Ninja Fragments, Zhang Miao always went back and forth between several big families in Konoha. There was always a lack of time, no extra words.

But ever since he came here, he could collect the fragments of Chiyo without leaving the house, and after a meal, he could also collect the fragments of Ebizo.

Although there was one more ninja now (Gaara), he seemed to be similar to Chiyo and the others, so how to spend time every day became a problem for Zhang Miao.

Originally, cooking three meals a day could consume Zhang Miao three to four hours of time, and the rest of the time, he would play chess with Ebizo, or accompany Chiyo to catch fish in the small pond, or carve some wood, and the day would pass.

But now, even the job of cooking had been taken away by Chiyo, and looking at her posture, he was afraid that she would not let him into the kitchen in the future.

This time, Zhang Miao was a little worried.

"What should I do to pass the extra time?"

This question kept hovering in Zhang Miao's mind, but until he finished breakfast, he still could not come up with a specific answer, so he could only sigh helplessly.

"Sigh, if it really doesn't work, just continue to carve wood or sit by the small pool in a daze. Gaara, you can't go out with me to play with sand, can you? Well... maybe playing with sand is also fine..."

Just as Zhang Miao was wondering whether he should carve wood or play with sand, Baki's voice suddenly came from outside the house.

"Advisor Chiyo, Lord Miao, Lord Kazekage is here!"

Hearing this voice, the originally listless Zhang Miao suddenly became spirited, and his eyes lit up.

"Ah, there's my delivery!"
