Chương 45: Home-Cooked Meal
Under the eaves, the old man was drowsy under the sun.
Suddenly, Uchiha Tunan's gentle voice came from the room.
"Grandpa, were you also a ninja before?"
The old man opened his eyes and shook his head. He became a little more awake and subconsciously said,
"Hmph, have you heard of the Sanhe Clan?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he recalled something.
Looking at the flowers and plants in the courtyard, he became slightly absent-minded and said with a slightly lonely expression,
"You probably haven't heard of it, because I'm the only one left now."
"The Sanhe family was a famous warrior family in ancient times."
"Later, the Ninjas flourished, and the Sanhe family became the Ninja Clan."
"However, in the Warring States Era, the only two or three members of the family died."
"When the 1st Hokage established Konoha, I was the only one left in the Sanhe family."
"Not long after, the first Ninja World war broke out, and our family all went to the battlefield."
"It was at that time that my legs were crippled, and my son and wife died."
When he was old, he couldn't stop chatting.
When the old man stopped, he found that he seemed to have said too much.
However, Uchiha Tunan was not surprised at all. Instead, he asked curiously through the wall,
"You should have been very strong back then."
The old man raised his eyebrows and said proudly,
"Of course. I used to be the captain of the Anbu."
He had led a team to carry out an S -rank mission.
It was a pity...
The old man gently patted his paralyzed legs.
"War is just so cruel..."
In the room, Uchiha Tunan put the last piece of junk into the cabinet.
The sunlight streamed into the room through the window behind him, making it impossible to see Uchiha Tunan's current expression.
Uchiha Tunan slowly got up, picked up his handkerchief, and walked towards the toilet.
The sundries had been cleaned up, so all he needed to do now was wipe the dust.
But when Uchiha Tunan opened the toilet door, the scene in front of him made Uchiha Tunan frown slightly.
He saw that the toilet was full of filth, and he didn't know how long the toilet had been blocked.
A pungent smell permeated the air.
Based on the old man's previous behavior, Uchiha Tunan roughly guessed why he was so stingy that he had to hire a ninja to clean it.
At this moment, the old man pushed the wheelchair behind Uchiha Tunan and coughed lightly with a guilty expression.
"Cough cough, little fellow, giving up on the mission will leave a record on the calendar."
Uchiha Tunan turned around and smiled at the old man. "Do you not have a toilet bowl at home?"
"No." The old man shook his head and said.
Uchiha Tunan nodded and bowed. "Please wait for me."
After that, he walked out of the courtyard.
Not long later, Uchiha Tunan came back with a tool under the old man's nervous gaze.
He ignored the filth in the toilet and began to clean it up.
The old man looked at Uchiha Tunan, who was cleaning the toilet, and an apologetic look flashed through his eyes.
After Uchiha Tunan cleaned up the toilet, he got up and began to wipe the dust off the furniture.
Throughout the entire process, Uchiha Tunan kept a focused expression.
Even when he faced those small items, Uchiha Tunan took out a small brush from his shirt pocket and carefully brushed off the dust.
The old man swore that he had never seen anyone do housework so diligently.
It was simply art.
Until noon, Uchiha Tunan wiped the floor for the third time.
After spraying perfume everywhere in the room, he respectfully came to the old man and bowed with his hands on his knees.
"I have already cleaned it up,"
"Please check."
The old man looked at Uchiha Tunan's clean and neat white shirt, which was now wrinkled, and felt even more guilty.
"You... did a good job."
Uchiha Tunan smiled and handed over the mission sheet and pen at the same time.
"Then please sign on the mission list."
The old man signed his name happily and hesitated for a moment.
He took out the two thousand taels that Kakashi had paid before, and a trace of heartache flashed through his eyes.
He stuffed the money and the mission list into Uchiha Tunan's hands.
"These two thousand taels are your small fee. Let's go."
"Grandpa, you are so kind. I thank you on behalf of Kakashi."
Uchiha Tunan's face was filled with a sunny smile. He left the courtyard and went to the Hokage building to hand in the task.
After Uchiha Tunan left, the old man pushed the wheelchair to the bedroom and took out a photo frame from the bedside table.
In the photo frame was a happy family of three.
The old man stretched out his trembling hand and gently stroked the photo frame.
"If my son hadn't died, he should have a great-grandson now, just like this little guy."
The old man let out a long sigh, put the photo frame back in the bedside table, and turned to the kitchen.
When he opened the refrigerator, there were only a few rice balls left in the morning.
Ever since the old man's wife passed away, his personality had become more and more reclusive.
In addition, he was a famous rooster, and the neighbors around him were not willing to interact with him.
The old man reached out and took out the two rice balls from the refrigerator. He held them in his hand and prepared to eat them after the rice balls thawed themselves.
"I have to go out again in the afternoon." The old man sighed and leaned against the back of the wheelchair, thinking about something.
"Coo! Coo!"
At this time, most of the villagers had gone home to eat.
It was quiet outside, with only a few scattered bird cries.
The old man leaned against the back of the wheelchair, his eyes slightly narrowed, and he fell asleep.
Time slowly passed.
Clang clang clang clang clang...
After an unknown period of time, someone knocked on the door.
The old man's eyelids opened and closed a few times. Finally, he woke up and shouted,
"Who is it!"
"Clang clang clang..."
There was still a knock on the door, but no one outside the room answered.
The old man frowned and pushed the wheelchair to the door with one hand.
At this time, the knocking stopped.
The old man frowned, slowly put his hand on the door, and then pulled it away.
The moment he opened the door, the warm sun spilled in.
He saw Uchiha Tunan holding the ingredients in both hands with a warm smile like the early spring sun. He said gently,
"When I was cleaning before, I saw that there was nothing to eat in your fridge."
"I guess it was inconvenient for you to buy vegetables, so I bought some for you."
The old man was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Thank you, little guy. I don't need these things."
After all, his legs were inconvenient. It was very difficult to make a good meal. He usually just ate some rice balls.
If you want to eat meat, wrap some bacon in the rice balls.
Uchiha Tunan glanced at the old man's legs and said gently,
"I've already bought it. It would be a waste if I don't eat it."
"Why don't I make it for you? Afterall, I'm the only one left at home."
"Let's eat together so that I can have a companion."
The old man's expression changed slightly. It was obvious that he was a little moved.
"Up to you."
Uchiha Tunan smiled and walked in. He took the rice balls from the old man and threw them into the trash can.
"These rice balls are not nutritious. It's better not to eat them."
After that, he went to the kitchen, tied the apron around his waist, and began to cook.
Light a fire and put oil on.
"Dada..."
The sound of cutting vegetables rang out in a rhythm.
