Chapter 167 Madam and Children

Kosuke Maruboshi is a very senior ninja in Konoha and has made many achievements, but he has always only wanted to be a genin.

Because he was eager for quick success when he was young, which led to the death of two companions, he swore to the then Second Hokage that he would always be a genin.

He has always adhered to this oath, even if the third generation planned to promote him to jounin, he refused.

In his middle age, he went on missions with the third generation, and unfortunately his left eye was disabled.

During the Third War, he performed a mission with the Fourth Hokage and unfortunately his left leg was disabled. The Fourth Hokage personally bandaged his wound.

Since the second generation, every Hokage has admired him. It can be said that he is the best employee in Konoha who has made meritorious service, works hard and works silently for Konoha.

If possible, the higher-ups in Konoha would like him to be promoted to Jonin.

Not only did she admire his dedication to Konoha, but also because, with his merits, it was a bit outrageous to remain a genin. It seemed as if Konoha was stingy in rewarding its subordinates for their ninja achievements.

Failure to reward meritorious service actually undermines the fairness of Konoha's promotion system.

Orochimaru glanced at his teacher, so the teacher decided and gave an order: From now on, only simple tasks at the genin level will be assigned to Kosuke Maruhoshi.

This is not only pity for this old man who has silently devoted himself to Konoha, but also because Kosuke Maruboshi has always refused to be promoted, so the third generation teacher had no choice but to deal with him coldly.

Don't let him continue to create achievements, let him be silently forgotten, so that he, a counterexample to Konoha's promotion system, will be silently ignored and forgotten.

Of course, if Kosuke Maruhoshi relaxes his attitude and no longer refuses promotion.

Then he must be the best employee in Konoha who deserves publicity!

But he still stubbornly refused to be promoted, so he could only be allowed to take good care of himself in old age.

Of course, after all the credit for creating it, the salary will definitely not be bad, and with Konoha's current splendor, it is not something he can't afford.

In fact, Kosuke Maruboshi is currently working hard in the kitchen ninja system... Although he still refuses to be promoted in the kitchen ninja and only wants to be a genin-level kitchen ninja, he seems to enjoy cooking. .

As for his study of dishes, Konoha also tried its best to support him.

"Ah, these meatballs are so delicious!" Hongdou picked up the meatballs with chopsticks and started eating.

"Glutinous rice, fried, sesame, red bean paste filling, pine, crispy and soft, melts in your mouth, um, so happy!" Red Bean covered her face and chewed.

The crispiness of deep-fried food, the aroma of sesame seeds, and her favorite red bean paste filling completely hit her sweet spot!

“You came to the right time to attend the wedding!”

"..."

Itachi was speechless when he saw Anko, who was still immersed in the delicious food but didn't notice that he was here.

But is it really so delicious? These deep-fried, sesame-coated, red bean-filled glutinous rice balls.

It should be really good, right?

Itachi couldn't help but swallow, picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece, and put it in his mouth to taste.

And his action of picking up the meatballs finally caught Hongdou's attention. Hongdou was excited, "Who?" Who dares to lay hands on my meatballs?

Turning his head sharply, he saw it was Itachi.

Itachi bit it lightly, his eyes lit up, and he quickly continued eating.

Anko immediately smiled.

"How is it? Is it delicious?"

Itachi nodded as he ate.

"correct."

Anko looked around.

"Where's your brother?"

"Sasuke seems to understand that I'm looking for you and doesn't want to come over."

"...Didn't you just play with him a little bit?" Hongdou sweated a little and said, "You're really petty."

Itachi glanced at her, still confused, what did Anko do? This left Sasuke with such a psychological shadow.

On the other side, Uchiha Mikoto held Sasuke.

Sasuke leaned in his mother's arms, looking up at the sky with some melancholy. He missed his brother, but his brother went to find that damn woman, and he really didn't want to follow him.

Why, why is there that woman in this world? The best brother in the world betrayed him because of that woman.

Is there something wrong with this world? Can't the elder brother and the younger brother get along well and intimately without outsiders interfering?

Why do people have to work so hard to live in this world?

so tired.

"Sasuke, do you want to eat? These are meatballs. Your brother must like them very much." Mikoto held a fried glutinous rice and red bean filling meatball with her chopsticks and gestured in front of Sasuke.

Sasuke was shocked.

ball! He is allergic to this word, yes, his brother likes eating meatballs, he knows it, but that damn evil, horrible, horrible woman also likes eating meatballs!

My brother must have followed that woman and betrayed him because of Wanzi!

That’s why I don’t want meatballs or anything like that!

Go away! Go away! You disgusting meatballs, don’t appear in front of me again!

Seeing Sasuke in his arms, he waved his hands, looking very disgusted.

Mikoto smiled helplessly, shook her head, put it in front of her mouth and started eating.

"Mrs. Mikoto, your children are so cute." Such emotion came from the other side.

Mikoto looked over and saw a woman wearing a purple kimono with a gentle smile and narrowed eyes.

Although her eyes were narrowed, Mikoto knew that under those double eyelids were a pair of white eyes.

"Mrs. Hinata, what are you saying? Your child is also very cute. His name is Hinata, right? He will definitely be a great beauty in the future!"

"I accept your good advice."

At this moment, Mikoto felt very strange, after all, she was sitting at the same table with the wife of the head of the Hyuga clan.

After all, the Uchiha clan has always looked down upon the Hyuga clan in the past... In fact, they were a little jealous that they were valued by Konoha.

The Hyuga clan also dislikes the Uchiha clan and is dissatisfied with the so-called No. 1 Jutsu clan.

The two parties rarely come into contact and try to avoid formal occasions.

But now Konoha is very particular about unity. As the patriarch's wife of an important clan in the village, it is normal for them to be arranged to sit together.

Sighing in her heart, Mikoto took a good look at the baby girl in the arms of the Hyuga clan leader's wife.

At this time, he was looking around curiously. He seemed to have noticed her gaze and looked at her curiously.

In response, Mikoto smiled and nodded to the little guy.

Soon, the little guy also nodded. Is he returning the gift? In other words, it is simply imitation.

Afterwards, the little guy looked at Sasuke who was looking at the sky melancholy in Mikoto's arms.

After looking at it for a while, he turned his gaze and looked to the other side. In the arms of a woman with beige hair and glasses, a man with yellow hair and a bearded face was holding chopsticks and smiling cheerfully. A child waving chopsticks.

As if aware of his gaze, the child looked at her and smiled brightly.

Seeing such a bright and cheerful smile that made people happy, the little guy in Mrs. Hinata's arms also started laughing.

Next to the woman with beige hair and glasses, there was another woman with red hair. In her arms was a little guy who also had red hair.

Seeing the blond guy next to him smiling at another person, the red-haired guy seemed a little dissatisfied and poked the blond's bearded face with the chopsticks in his hand.
