"The Yamanaka clan is also the big clan of Konoha anyway, and it has a longer history than the existence of the village." Naruto looked left and right, "Why did your grandmother live here?" ”

"This used to be a piece of land in the clan, and the relationship between my grandmother and my father and mother was not good, so I naturally didn't want to leave the ancestral land."

"When I was a child, my father and mother were very busy with work and had no time to take care of me." Ino explained that the contours of his face were gentle and clean, and that he was incomparably beautiful in the white sunlight.

"So you threw it to your grandmother?" Naruto asked, his mind roughly sketching out the image of a young old lady who didn't smile.

"Hmm." Ino nodded, "My grandmother was very stubborn, and although she finally kept me under my mother's pleading, she was lukewarm to me. ”

"The food I was given when I was a kid was so hard to eat that it was almost hard to swallow. Later, I ate something unclean, and I almost lost my life, and my father took it back to Konoha. ”

Naruto looked up, his eyelids jumping, and asked in a low voice.

"And what's the matter with your grandmother?"

"I later learned that in the year my mother insisted on marrying my father, my grandmother had a serious illness. She didn't tell anyone, and she wouldn't let anyone come back. ”

"My mother thought that my grandmother still hated her, so she always felt guilty. But every time I went back, I was scolded so much that I never came back. ”

"After that incident, they. They won't let me come again. ”

Ino walked forward with his head bored, it had rained about yesterday, and the path was a little muddy. The shoes were covered in mud, but she didn't realize it.

"Actually, my grandmother was sick for many years and spent a lot of money. She can't afford to hire a maid, she can't cook, and she takes medicine every day. ”

"The year I came, my grandmother broke her hand while trying to clean my house. I bought food with the money for medicine, and the food I cooked was not delicious, and I had to cook it for a long time every time. ”

"When I ate the wrong thing, my grandmother panicked and begged someone to take me to heal, and scolded my father when he heard the news."

"Later, when I sneaked back to see her." Ino stopped, his voice choked, "She's going to die, and if I hadn't gone back then, I wouldn't have had a grandmother anymore." ”

Naruto hugged her gently, waiting for Ino to calm down before he spoke comfortingly.

"It's okay, the previous things are in the past. Didn't you come back to see your grandmother? ”

"And. Don't cry later, lest your grandmother think I've bullied you. ”

Ino burst into tears and laughed and pushed him.

"You've been bullying me all the time."

"Don't talk nonsense. What do you mean I keep bullying you? In all fairness, aren't you cool!! Ino, don't do it suddenly! ”

The ancestral house where the old lady lives is very large, and most of the yards are deserted. But the courtyard where the old lady lived was empty, but it was clean.

Outside the courtyard gate, he saw that Ino seemed to be nervous, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously.

"Are you nervous about coming often?"

"My grandmother didn't like outsiders." Ino glanced at him worriedly, biting his lower lip a little apprehensively.

Naruto was stunned for a moment, his mind buzzing.

"You didn't tell the old lady in advance?"

"Nope." She shook her head, and when she saw Naruto gasp, she quickly explained, "Although grandmother doesn't like outsiders, she actually won't as long as someone arrives."

"Tsundere?" Naruto asked tentatively.

"Don't say that." Ino tugged at his sleeve and lowered her voice, and as soon as the spring breeze blew, she nodded quietly again.

"Oh, that's easy to do." He muttered quietly.

Knock on the door.

An old lady with silver hair stood in the doorway, and when she saw Ino's serious face softening slightly, her brow furrowed slightly when she glanced at Naruto next to her again.

"Grandmother, he's." Seeing that the old lady frowned, Ino chuckled in his heart, and hurriedly explained.

"Naruto Uzumaki." He didn't wait for Ino to speak, and took the initiative to speak, "Ino's friend, I specially accompanied me to see my grandmother." ”

He didn't know what to call an old lady, he couldn't really call an old lady. simply shouted with Ino, anyway, sooner or later in the future.

The old lady had a little rickety at the waist, and there were some old age spots on her bark-like face. The silver hair is neat, and the face looks very serious.

"Grandmother," Ino cried out as if pleading.

"Come in, I'll cook for you."; The old lady glanced at Naruto, turned around slowly, and staggered out into the courtyard.

"Don't you mind. My grandmother was like that, she was actually very soft-hearted. Ino lowered his voice and said in Naruto's ear while the old lady was walking in front.

"Got it." He responded.

The first time they met, he was not too enthusiastic, and habitually observed the old lady. Combined with what Ino said, it was estimated that the old lady's personality was also cold, so he directly dispelled the idea of giving gifts.

At the moment of cooking, he pulled over Jing Ye and said, "Coax your old lady out, I'll cook." ”

"Huh? Will it work? My grandmother wouldn't let me cook. Ino was a little surprised, "If I have to do it, she will be angry." ”

"Don't be angry, your old lady is reluctant to call her baby granddaughter, I'm different." Naruto nudged her lightly, "If you don't believe me, let's make a bet." ”

"Bet on what?"

"Come with your ears, I'll tell you."

"No, it's certainly not a good thing." Ino pushed him and said proudly, "I won't gamble, I'll trust you once." ”

"He's going to cook?" The old lady was a little stunned, looked at Ino a few times, and time flew by, obviously it seemed that Ino was only knees high yesterday.

Ino didn't know that the old lady was actually reminiscing about the past, and when he saw the old lady stunned, he thought she was unhappy, and he immediately became nervous.

"What's wrong with you, grandmother?"

"Well, if he wants to do it, let him do it." The old lady didn't have any expression, and seemed a little unhappy, "Xiao Ino, you accompany your grandmother into the room and sit for a while." ”

"Oh, yes, grandmother." Ino smiled brightly, and he really guessed it.

"He really went cooking." Ino took half of his body back from the door and said with a smile, "Grandmother, he took the initiative to say that he wanted to cook because he was afraid that you would have to cook hard." ”

Hearing this, the old lady was a little unhappy. Xindao herself is still here, and she starts to speak for an outsider, but she will not have a temper with Ino either.

"When did you meet?"

"It's been a long time, when did you know each other?" Ino looked up and thought for a moment, "We met when we were very young, but the real contact was in the year I graduated from the ninja school. ”

"Why, you haven't told me much before?" The old lady leaned back in her chair.

"I told you!" Ino's voice lowered a little, "It's just. Just said it while you were asleep, you can't blame me. ”

Old lady: "."

There was the sound of stir-frying at the other end of the kitchen, the sound of fire and the sound of woks colliding, as if it was being renovated.

"Does he know how to cook?" The old lady couldn't hold back, and asked in a stiff tone.

"Yes." Ino Tuk Tuk ran to the door, leaned out half of her body and looked out, listening to the movement, she was also a little unconfident.

She swallowed and threw down a sentence of "I'll take a look."

Old lady: "."

In less than two minutes, Ino hurried back again. The old lady was still leaning back in the chair, not even changing her posture, and looked at her from a distance and asked.

"What did he say?"

He said. Ino's face was a little unpleasant, "He said no problem. ”

In fact, when Ino asked him how to cook and demolish, the guy just turned around and smiled in front of the flames, and said shamelessly.

The movement is not too big, how to brush the sense of presence in front of the old lady.

Although Ino didn't know what Naruto was trying to do, he also knew that he wanted to please his grandmother for his own sake. Although he was disgusted in his mouth, he was still moved in his heart.

"What's his name?"

"Naruto Uzumaki, grandmother." Ino leaned in and combed the old lady's hair, her eyes shining.

"He said he was going to cook?"

"yes!" Ino said, "Actually, he's pretty good, grandmother, do you know?" One time on my birthday, Naruto set off fireworks for me alone"

"He's not bad, then." The old lady cherishes words like gold.

"yes, Naruto is good! It's just that sometimes the mouth is a little cheap, and I like to be angry with me. Halfway through his speech, Ino realized that he had missed his mouth and hurriedly made up for him.

"Actually, I'm not angry, I'm just pretending."

She had completely forgotten about the tears that fell on the steam train, and she only said good and bad in front of the old lady, and she didn't dare to say that there was a Hinata between the two.

"Hmm." The old lady nodded and said no more.

Not long after, the meal is served.

Four dishes and one miso soup, authentic Konoha flavor. Naruto rarely does anything, and he watched Sakura cook more often, so he wrote it down by the way.

It's not too troublesome to reproduce, and the taste is not as good as Sakura's, but it's not bad.

The old lady tasted it and did not speak, but ate it slowly. Naruto raised his eyebrows, and said in his heart that this old lady was really a little arrogant.

However, looking at her elegant eating appearance, as if the food is good or bad, it is a bit of a sense of being pampered and humiliated by the rich and poor.

It's not difficult to guess that before Ino was born, the old lady probably lived an aristocratic life. Later, it was the things that Ino said, but now everyone has betrayed their relatives and left, leaving only a little granddaughter.

Thinking of this, Naruto felt a sense of guilt inexplicably. It was as if he was robbing the old lady of the only relative who could speak, but after thinking about it, he was quickly relieved.

It's not a robbery, Ino was originally his. And the old lady has one more relative of her own, buy one get two free, no, get three free, earn with tears.

Besides, the old lady has this treatment, if he is replaced by Hinata, he will definitely not be so active.

"Delicious!" Ino said unexpectedly.
