Chapter 128: Troubles
After the four masters and apprentices saw Uchiha Fugaoka leave, Hippo Hanyu immediately knocked heavily on Jing's head and scolded: "Don't be complacent, this time the matter is not over." β
Uchiha snorted twice and complained: "I don't blame me for this matter, who told them to restrict my movement since I came back, even if it weren't for the three generations of adults to come forward, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to participate in the middle ninja exam." I think they are discriminating against us women, and I just want to prove to them that I will not be at their mercy. Moreover, why do they look down on people, the teacher injured them last time, and I didn't see that they had the courage to trouble the teacher, so they would use me as a student to get angry, what kind of man is it? β
"Also, you can't get rid of this incident with the teacher, don't think about it, it's all on me, if you want to say that this trouble is caused by you before. You-"
"Stop", seeing that Uchiha Jing was ready to talk to her endlessly about the grievances in his heart, Hippo Hanyu hurriedly shouted to stop, touched the non-existent sweat droplets on his forehead, and said: "The teacher admits that you are not to blame for this matter!" β
Uchiha Jing was relieved when she saw Hippo Hanyu surrender, don't look at her arrogant appearance, her heart is also very stressed. Rebelling against the family with the strength of one person, she knows what a stupid act it is, but she really can't stand it anymore.
When she went home this time, she didn't let her go out casually, her father actually arranged her future husband for her, and the other party was the grandson of the second elder Uchiha who she didn't look down on very much before.
That's why after learning that Hippo Hanyu was back, Uchiha Jing was so excited, because for her, this may be the only help for her to get rid of her father and the family's control, and others are powerless even if they want to help.
Hanyu the hippo, who didn't know about it, thought of Linfeng, who was worried at home, and persuaded: "Okay, the matter is over, go home early!" Don't let your father and your brother worry about you. β
"Home?" As soon as Uchiha Jing saw the courtyard of the Uchiha family, she couldn't help but think of the grandson of that hateful second elder, it was difficult to come out, where would he be willing to go back. Moreover, his father's attitude made it really difficult for her to face.
"I'm not going back." Uchiha Shizune resolutely rejected Hippo Kanyuji's suggestion.
In Hippo Hanyu's ears, this is just a child's anger, pulling his face and saying: "That's not good, your behavior today is already very excessive, you always have to consider your family's feelings, right?" β
"Excessive?" Hearing this, the grievances in Uchiha's heart suddenly swelled up, and tears flowed down, "I'm excessive, am I excessive?" They forced me to marry a guy I didn't like at all, restricted my freedom, and didn't even allow me to meet with Red Bean and Don. They are my father, my brother, the closest person in my world, how can they do this to me. β
Looking at Uchiha Shizu's shoulders, Hippo Hanyu looked at Azuki Kazudo, the three of them were speechless, even Azuki Kazudo only knew that her father didn't allow her to go out, so the last time the middle ninja test was Kakashi asked the three generations to come forward and participate.
"What did I do wrong, is it just because I'm a woman, just because I'm from the Uchiha clan? I know that the talented Uchiha clan has no shortage of female ninjas, and all they need is a wife who can keep the whole family alive. The bitterness, depression and grievances that have been held in my heart for many days are like water bursting from the embankment, and they can't stop it from encroaching on Uchiha Shizu's heart.
Looking at the emotional Jing, Hippo Hanyu moved his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything, patted Jing's shoulder, and said to Hongdou Hetang beside him: "Go back and clean up your room, Jing will live with you for the time being!" Don, if you go to Jing's brother, tell her that Jing will temporarily stay at my house and accept my guidance in order to meet the test of the dark side. β
Watching Hongdou pull Uchiha Jing away, Hippo Hanyu couldn't help but shake his head, this time when he came back, he originally planned to ease the conflict with the Uchiha clan, but now it seems that it is impossible. I really don't know if it's my bad life or the bad luck of the Uchiha clan.
Putting aside these troubles, Hippo Hanyu walked to the Yamanaka flower shop, and saw that Yamanaka Haiyi's wife was chasing his naughty daughter and shuttling through the flower shop, with a smile on his face.
"Miss Liangmei, long time no see." Hippo Hanyu greeted with a smile.
"You are-", Yoshimi Yamanaka is trying to search for her memories, but Hippo Hanyu rarely goes out after the image has changed greatly, plus he has not been in Konoha for the past two years, and he is not very familiar with him, so it is really not easy to recognize him at a glance.
After working hard for a long time to no avail, Yoshimi Yamanaka gave up this brain-draining thinking, covered up her embarrassment with a smile, and said, "I'm sorry, I look at you and feel familiar, but I can't remember it for a while." β
"Hehe-", looking at Yamanaka's beautiful expression, Hippo Hanyu himself was a little embarrassed, and smiled: "My name is Hippo Hanyu, and I know the seniors in the mountains." This is your daughter! It's so cute. Seeing that Yamanaka Yoshimi was still at a loss, Hippo Hanyu simply changed the topic.
"yes!" Hearing Hippo Hanyu praising his daughter, a happy smile immediately appeared on Yamanaka Yoshimi's face, and she grabbed her daughter and said, "Ino, call uncle quickly." β
"Hello uncle", the little girl who was very excited just now suddenly became quiet, and looked at the hippo Hanyu with curiosity and shouted.
"Hehe", Hippo Hanyu looked at the little girl staring at her sunglasses, as if thinking about how to pull it down, and said with a smile: "The first time we met, I will give you a small gift." As if by magic, Hanyu took out a beautiful little doll and handed it to Iono.
The little girl immediately took her eyes off his sunglasses, took the little toy, and happily ran to the side to play.
After stopping for a moment at the Yamanaka flower shop, Hanyu the hippo took a few bouquets of flowers and walked in the direction of the Hero Monument in Konoha.
I stayed in front of the tomb of my father Hippo Long and my teacher Mitarai Zixiao for a while, as if I was reporting, and told me about the family and red beans, which can be regarded as an explanation to my father and my nominal teacher!
When I passed by the Bofeng Shui Gate and the tomb with soil, there was now a bouquet of flowers on it, which looked quite fresh, and I didn't know who sent it. Shaking his head and sighing at Kakashi's persistence, after giving his flowers, Hippo Hanyu continued to move forward, how many familiar names along the way!
Broken, Moonlight Night Mist, Hinata Saita, Taya Hiki, etc., the previous fragments flashed in his mind from time to time, and unconsciously, tears flowed down his face.
In the end, he stopped in front of the tomb of the oil girl Chengori, since that time he heard the oil girl Zhi'an say that she liked the flowers she sent, every time he came here, Hippo Hanyu did not forget to bring a bouquet over.
"This isβ" Hippo Hanyu inadvertently swept to another tombstone next to Nariori, and it turned out to be the oil girl Zhi'an, who was a little quiet and cowardly in his memory, and his heart was even more touched.
I am still alive, and the people around me are still alive, what a great happiness at this time! In this world of the jungle, being alive is a luxury for many people.
He was silent in front of the monument for a long time, combing through what he had done in the past twenty years, sorting out his messy emotions, and only when his mood was completely calmed down did Hippo Hanyu leave this place.
He didn't like it here, and every time he came here, he felt heavy and depressed. Looking back at the monument, Hippo Hanyu swept away the gloom in his heart and made up his mind not to set foot in this place again. Some people, some things are enough to keep in their hearts.
The days passed peacefully, except for reminding Jing of some details, he basically did not interfere too much with Jing's practice, in his opinion, what should be taught, in the past two years, he has already taught.
In terms of ninjutsu, physical arts, illusions, intelligence, strength, degree, mental power, and the comprehensive strength of the seal, Jing is competent enough to work in the shadows, and in terms of individual combat effectiveness, Jing is definitely a bright person in the middle ninja, even if she is bigger than Hong, she may not be able to win her.
Ten days later, three generations sent the property rights of the abandoned house in Houshan, and the land was officially assigned to the Hippo family.
"Hanyu, have you bought all such a big piece of land?" Qi Muling was also a little incredulous.
"Buy? Of course not, it's just three generations of adults who are half selling and half giving away, and that place, for the current Konoha, is a piece of chicken ribs, tasteless to eat, and it's a pity to abandon it. Other families don't look down on that remote place, give it to me, it's a waste reuse! Hippo Hanyu said with a smile, in his memory, this place will still be barren after nine years.
"Yes." Qi Muling also figured out the key to this, "In that case, why do you want to buy it?" "This is also everyone's question, they really can't figure it out, why buy such an enclave to live in such a good land, how inconvenient it is to go back and forth to the village!
"Hehe, the Hyuga clan, the Uchiha clan, and the oil girl clan, these big families of Konoha have their own clans, and our Hippo clan and the Kiki clan, as the former Dawang clan, have such a small foundation, it's not too embarrassing! Maybe we'll be able to reinvigorate our two families on this land. Hippo Hanyu said half-truthfully.
"Slap", Tomoko Hippo slapped it and scolded: "I'm fooling again, you really care so much about the family, why didn't you see you act when I asked you to visit the seniors of those families before." Let's be honest! Don't forget, you are now the head of the family, and as long as you decide, our whole family will support you. β
Hippo Hanyu smiled, although his mother likes to beat herself and like to lose her face in front of outsiders, but in big things, she has always firmly supported herself.
"I'm going to open a dojo, it's best to build it in the village, but if I want to try some new ninjutsu, it's too eye-catching in the village, it's not good, and if you accidentally affect the people around you. Not as spacious as the back mountain, quiet, can be better waved, and there are ready-made buildings in the back mountain, we only need to rebuild and decorate it, and we can also save a lot of money. β
"Ling Ye, what do you think?" Tomoko Hippo has already expressed his position, but he still needs to consult Qimu Lingyede's opinion.
Qi Mu Ling also glanced at Kenzen Yuanzuo, who bowed his head and thought deeply, and said: "I have no opinion, now there are more than a dozen people in the house are a little crowded, and Qingtian also said that he felt that the practice ground was too crowded when he was practicing, if he changed to a bigger place, of course it would be good." It's just that they are all still studying at Konoha School, if they live so far away, will it affect them? β
This is indeed a more realistic problem, and Hippo Hanyu did not take this into account.
Qu Index, the joint family of Hippopotamus-Chesswood is already a huge family, in addition to the Hippo Mother and Son and Chesswood Mother and Son, Kenzen Yuanzuo and his relatives four, Red Bean and Tang, and the 13-year-old Iruka who joined later, 7-year-old Xia Zhiyuan, 6-year-old Yi, 9-year-old Kamikaze, and a 3-year-old guy, Hippo Hanyu also came back this time to know that this little guy who joined later was actually called Li Luo.
Looking at the little guys' eyes staring at him, Hippo Hanyu also felt a little headache.
