To be honest, Lorna is not a sugar addict, but mental work consumes a lot of energy. In addition, Lorna is a person who has an irregular day and night life, so in order to prevent the world from losing a great potion master, she often Bring all kinds of candies to avoid low blood pressure one day and smash a bunch of utensils that need careful maintenance.

Because in this era there were only Kinpei sweets made from Yiluo powder and sugar water, which were one of the traditional Japanese sweets. Not only were they expensive to fake, but each one was only the size of a small fingernail, so Madara Uchiha would only sell them during the holidays. , use the bounty from the mission to buy some Jinpei candy for Izuna or other children of the Uchiha family.

As for the adults...

There are a lot of places to spend money in the clan, but there are only a few young adults who can go on missions. Even considering the support of the elderly and orphans who have lost their only children, one person often supports several families or allows non-combatants in the clan to support them. Go get some other work.

Especially now that winter is approaching, the clan will not accept tasks until spring, so they have to be more careful with their budgets to avoid having any spare money to buy sweets for the children.

So when Lorna handed over the fruit candy, Uchiha Madara stared at the thumb-sized colorful packages in the transparent bag, almost squinting due to the tin foil emission under the candlelight, and looked like he was not to be trifled with.

"What, you don't like eating fruit candies?" Lorna wanted to say, "Are you worried about the poison?", but when she thought that she was still in someone else's clan and had a big meal from someone else, she couldn't stop talking. He said again: "It's very sweet. Don't you really want a bag?"

"Thank you." Uchiha Madara subconsciously met Lorna's eyes, and then took the small bag of fruit candies by accident, unable to get his hands on the sealed package.

"Tear it off from the jagged edge, and then twist open the colorful packaging." Lorna saw Uchiha Madara turning the candy bag over and over several times, as if he was studying some peerless weapon, so she stepped forward to "instruct" him to tear open the bag: "There are many flavors in it. For example, apple, orange, pineapple, grape, and mint..."

Logically speaking, mint should not be counted among fruits, but mint is one of the sugars that Lorna dislikes the least, so in order to buy sugar packaging with mint, Lorna went to many stores. Look. I tried many brands before settling on my favorite candy brand.

"..." This was the first time for Uchiha Madara to be so close to a girl "of the same age".Because of the young clan leader's title and the arrogance of the Uchiha clan, both the girls in the clan and those wealthy ladies who interacted with him for mission reasons were all seduced by the young clan leader's handsome appearance. At the same time, he also stopped under the coldness of the other party.

Corona is no ordinary person.

To be precise, her attitude towards Uchiha Madara was similar to that of an adult looking at a child trying to pretend to be an old man. He would never be really intimidated by the other person's sophistication.

"Thank you." In front of Lorna, Uchiha Madara couldn't continue any further, so he could only choose a candy and eat it.

It turned out that the one he picked was a mint-flavored candy, and he almost lost his temper in public due to the refreshing feeling that hit the sky.

"Is this candy?" Uchiha Madara did taste the same sweetness as Jinping candy, but compared with the refreshing feeling that went straight to the sky, it was completely nonexistent: "You are sure you didn't confuse the candy with the medicine. "

Uchiha Madara half-covered his nose, feeling like he wanted to sneeze.

Like too much mustard.

"Do you think I package the medicine so well?" Lorna felt very speechless: "Normal people know that brightly colored mushrooms cannot be eaten, and the same is true for beautifully packaged things."

Uchiha Madara finally got used to the refreshing feeling. When he put down his hand, he also looked at Lorna with quite complicated eyes, and then said in a difficult sentence: "Are you scolding me?"

"Huh?" Lorna, who didn't react, almost looked at Madara Uchiha like an idiot, but the latter turned his head away the next second to avoid situations that would make him feel embarrassed.

Fortunately, there were only a few female relatives left in the hall at this time and the junior Uchiha who had not finished their meal, and the superior Uchiha Tajima was rushing to visit the clan leader's wife who had just woken up, so Uchiha Madara would not do it in front of his father. Make a fool of yourself.

"I'm tired, can you take me to rest?" Lorna glanced at Madara Uchiha's hair, as if she knew what he was awkward about, so she gave him a step down.

After Lorna left, Uchiha Madara, who breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the half-eaten rice bowl, then looked up and saw some Uchiha juniors sitting opposite, all looking at him with complicated and envious eyes, so he said helplessly : "Do you want to try it?"

After that, Uchiha Madara took out the fruit candies Lorna gave him and let the junior Uchiha choose freely.

"Really?" Although the younger members of the Uchiha family are in awe of Uchiha Madara, the young patriarch, in view of the fact that the family is naturally protective of shortcomings, and Uchiha Madara is not the kind of person who cares about everything, so in a symbolic way After asking, some younger Uchiha divided the fruit candies that Lorna gave to Uchiha Madara, leaving only a few for Izuna.

"It's so sweet!" Xiao Yuzhi, who was the first to get the candy, hurriedly peeled off the colored tin foil and felt the sweetness melting on the tip of his tongue: "It has the fragrance of orange."

"Mine is apple flavored."

"Mine has... a taste that I have never tasted before." A certain Uchiha who was as lucky as Uchiha Madara felt the refreshing feeling that went straight to the Tianling Gai, and almost spit out the candy: "Is this a mustard-flavored candy?"

The Uchiha touched the melted candy with the tip of his tongue. After getting used to the mint flavor, the expression on his face changed from suspicion to slightly sweet enjoyment.

The little Uchihas on the side teased: "How can anyone make candies with wasabi?

After saying that, there was a burst of good-natured laughter in the hall.

…………

On the way home, Uchiha Madara secretly opened a candy that was supposed to be left for Izuna, wondering if he was too unlucky to encounter a "wasabi-flavored" candy.

Fortunately, this time Uchiha Madara did not encounter the white mint candies, or in other words, all the mint candies were picked out by the young Uchihas just now, so when Uchiha Madara threw the red fruit candy into his mouth Finally, as expected, I tasted a pleasant sweetness, followed by a faint strawberry fragrance.

"If I had known it was strawberry flavor, I should have left it for Izuna." Uchiha Madara put the candy in his mouth and let out an indistinct sigh on the way home.

In this cruel world, candy alone is already precious, let alone strawberries that are out of reach.

Is that something that people in this era can enjoy?

Uchiha Madara swallowed the candy that had almost melted before entering the door, leaving only a dry and sweet taste in his mouth.
