Uchiha girl, ignites a group pet war in Konoha

As soon as he finished saying this, Shen Yue realized something was wrong.

That's right, Izuna is an adult, how could he play with children? He is not the child king Zhujian!

But Shen Yue thought about it, even if they don't play together, it's okay to get close to each other. When he was in the clan, didn't Izuna often get along with the five naughty apprentices?

Thinking of this, Shen Yue pulled Izuna's sleeve, took out a bunch of colorful and flavored candies from his pocket, and presented them to Izuna like offering treasures:

"Let's go and give them some candies, children like sweets."

Looking at the candies in Shen Yue's hand and her beautiful big eyes, Izuna couldn't help but smile. No one could refuse such a caring little cotton jacket.

But Quannai still shook his head gently and stuffed all the candies back into Shenyue's pocket. The smile on his face was still gentle and soft, but his expression quickly dimmed, the fire in his eyes extinguished into dead silence, and cold thin ice floated.

"Shenyue, do you know? Children in the past were very likely to die young."

Quannai's voice was hazy as if covered by a veil. He sighed, and there was a slight heaviness and uneasiness in his eyebrows.

Shenyue tilted his head slightly, and a trace of doubt appeared in his eyes.

She had lived in the ninja clan since she was a child. She only knew that children of a certain age had to go to the battlefield. She really knew very little about other things. Now listening to Quannai's words, she realized that the adults deliberately concealed something from her.

Or maybe they just didn't want to mention these shameful past events.

"In the past, medicines were scarce, and it was difficult for children to survive if they got sick."

"We ninjas who have already gone to the battlefield are not allowed to get close to those too young children."

Quannai smiled faintly there, somewhat self-deprecating.

This is not only an unwritten rule within the ninja clan, but even the daimyo nobles and ordinary civilians are also equally taboo.

Everyone hates ninjas with blood on their hands to get close to their young children, fearing that these tender and innocent lives will be hit by their evil spirits, as if ninjas are something filthy.

Whether it is out of the instinct to protect children or the fear of these killing tools, this sense of rejection has long been deeply rooted.

Quannai stared at his white hands quietly, but the hands reflected in the depths of his pupils were stained with blood.

With blood on his hands, he was not qualified to get close to these innocent children. Just looking at them from a distance, Quannai couldn't help but think of his two younger brothers who died young.

If they could be born in this era, they would definitely be as happy as these carefree children, right?

The atmosphere around was unusually heavy, and the sound of insects chirping in the hot and humid air made people feel extremely depressed and bored.

Shen Yue's pupils swayed, and she opened her mouth for a long time but couldn't speak. Quan Na took a deep breath, a little annoyed that she would tell Shen Yue these old stories!

He habitually forced himself to calm down, but the guilt in his heart hit him directly, like a heavy hammer, making him uneasy one by one, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.

"Sorry, let you know such a heavy thing..."

Quan Na squatted down and stretched out his hand, gently rubbing Shen Yue's hair. He smiled attentively, as if he was apologizing, and asked softly:

"Is there anything you want to eat? Let's go eat together later, okay?"

Shen Yue shook her head. Of course, she would not be angry with Quan Na because of this kind of thing. She just stood aside and thought.

After a moment, she suddenly suggested:

"Uncle Izuna, do you want to volunteer at the orphanage?"

"Volunteer?"

Izuna looked at her blankly, looking a little confused and at a loss, but Shenyue had made up his mind, took his hand, and walked towards the Konoha Orphanage.

"They are very short of manpower! If you come, the dean, Chinatsu and the children will definitely be very happy!"

Shenyue added, she turned back and smiled at Izuna, the smile was warm and bright, and people's hearts were no longer gloomy.

Izuna was in a trance for a moment, then nodded slightly, and a soft spot in his heart seemed to be touched.

.....

Izuna, who was brought to the Konoha Orphanage by Shenyue, stood at the gate, opened his eyes wide in surprise, and could hardly believe the scene in front of him.

"Shen Yue, are we really on the right track?"

After receiving Shen Yue's affirmative answer, and with the words "Konoha Orphanage" engraved on the stone tablet at the door, he almost thought that this was a high-rise building in Konoha Village.

Well, it was an illegal building.

It's no wonder that Izuna was so surprised. The Konoha Orphanage has already undergone several renovations and upgrades. It is completelyIt has been completely transformed.

Unfortunately, it has completely grown crooked.

The shabby wooden house in the past has long been replaced by modern buildings. The new building is built with the latest scientific ninja tool materials. Although it is not very beautiful, it is sturdy and durable.

Not only that, the facilities in the orphanage have also been greatly improved-

Each slightly older child can have his own independent small room, and no longer have to squeeze in a crowded bunk bed; the spacious playground has also become a part of the children's daily life.

From a distance, the new house in the orphanage looks like a stack of matchboxes. It is not only ugly, but also very weird, but it is convenient to build a room for the new children anytime and anywhere.

But after doing this, the infinitely high stacked small building looks shaky, just like the Burrow or the Leaning Tower of Pisa.

The great philanthropist Hashirama can't stand this, and he has to come over from time to time to reinforce it himself with Wood Release, but doing so makes the building surrounded by towering trees look even weirder.

Now, looking from the gate, there are many children playing with toys such as slides. Izuna even saw some children doing ninjutsu training on the playground.

"This place is really luxurious, completely different from what I imagined."

Retracting his surprised gaze, Izuna looked at Shenyue with some doubts. In his impression, such a place should not be so rich. Shenyue shrugged easily.

"There are many stores under the name of Konoha Orphanage, and there are also loving assistance from all walks of life. Konoha also gives a lot of subsidies and funds."

Shenyue, who invested a large sum of money in the orphanage, said so. Speaking of which, the reason why Konoha Orphanage is about to become the current Pharmacist Group is that she has made a great contribution.

At the beginning, the small clinic of Pharmacist Chan was quite prosperous.

But with the increase of medical ninjas and the opening of the medical department to the public, Pharmacist Chan's clinic closed down. Although she has superb medical skills, she is still not as good as the magical medical ninjutsu.

However, under Shenyue's advice and investment, Qianxia took her brothers and sisters to start the catering industry.

At first, they sold street snacks such as offal, and later opened hot pot restaurants. Later, there were more and more hot pot restaurants in Konoha.

When Shenyue got a large dividend from Qianxia, ​​she realized that Qianxia had already opened hot pot restaurants all over Konoha. It was really amazing!

Only Yizhen could compare with this level of business acumen. It must be said that the pharmacist is really good!

"Compared to money, they are more short of manpower now, after all, the number of children adopted in the orphanage is increasing."

Speaking of this, Shenyue looked uncomfortable. She scratched her hair subconsciously and took Izuna into the orphanage.

After all, the adoption range of the orphanage has expanded from Konoha to the surrounding areas, and people will abandon children here every day.

Although such unreliable parents would be arrested by the police and thrown into jail afterwards, Yaoshi Chan would never send the child back to such parents.

"Abandon the child? Why?"

Quan Na was very surprised. He absolutely hated such things, and even had red light in his eyes.

It's not that he had never seen such things before. In the past, the children of the ninja clan were sent to the battlefield early, which was a disguised way of eliminating the extra burden that could not be raised.

But this is Konoha, Konoha has so much money and food that it can't be spent. There is no way that there are parents who can't raise children!

"This is very complicated..."

Shen Yue sighed heavily, feeling helpless. Seeing Izuna's angry face, she was depressed and explained sadly:

"Some parents do this because their children are sick, and some do not want children. However, a large number of parents travel thousands of miles from their desolate hometowns to Konoha just to send their children here so that they can stay here forever."

Izuna was stunned. As a ninja in the Warring States Period, he could hardly imagine, but he understood very well why such a thing happened.

Although these parents acted in an extreme way, the motives behind them were difficult to judge simply.

Seeing the red in Izuna's eyes fade away, Shen Yue continued:

"Most of these parents come from small countries around them. They have basically spent all their savings before they can come to Konoha, and they are even in debt. They can't raise their children."

Looking at the smiling, neatly dressed children in the orphanage, who are obviously well raised, Shen Yue sighed worriedly:

"You have seen the life here. They think that if they stay here, their children will have a better life. Some people would rather go to jail than send their children here..."

Izuna was silent for a moment, with a lot of thoughts in his mind. After a long time,He asked, almost knowing the answer:

"Are these parents really so desperate?"

"Yes."

Thinking of the honest parents he had met in the police department who believed that Konoha was heaven, Shen Yue nodded with mixed feelings:

"They really think that as long as their children can live in Konoha, it is worth it even if they are punished."

Izuna fell into deep thought. He thought of his brother and the children he had seen on the battlefield, those innocent lives who had to go to the battlefield.

Which approach is right? He thought, he really didn't understand at all.

Maybe they were all wrong, or maybe they were all right.

In any case, Izuna could only be sure of one thing, that the child was innocent.

Looking at Izuna's gloomy expression, Shen Yue regretted that he had said too much. She quickly pulled Izuna inside and hurriedly changed the subject:

"Let's not talk about this for now, Uncle Izuna, come and help! They really need help now!"

More and more children naturally mean more people are needed to take care of them, and the pressure on the orphanage is of course increasing.

Even if the director, Chinatsu and volunteers are busy, even if the material conditions are met, these children abandoned by their parents need more love and companionship. Izuna, who was touched, no longer refused. He made up his mind to take good care of these poor children.

.....

When Shenyue took Izuna and walked into the orphanage together, the nannies and the children rushed up and surrounded Shenyue, and even Izuna was surrounded by them.

The elderly nanny who led the way was leaning on a cane and struggling to move forward. Shenyue was scared, so she hurried forward to support her. Looking at Shen Yue who had grown up a little bit, the old lady said kindly:

"Shen Yue, you are finally here, the children miss you very much!"

She stared at Shen Yue with her dim eyes, kept looking at Shen Yue, and kept muttering classic phrases of the elderly such as "taller", "thinner", "eat more".

After nagging for a long time, she was willing to let go of the sleepy Shen Yue.

After finally letting Shen Yue go, the nanny turned her eyes to Quan Nai beside her. Just when she was about to start a new string of nagging, she suddenly narrowed her eyes, and her whole momentum changed instantly. From an ordinary old lady that can be seen everywhere, she suddenly became a female ninja who had fought for many years.

Shen Yue was dumbfounded. Together with the shocked child beside her, she stared at her blankly, and then stared at Quan Nai blankly, completely unaware of what had just happened.

After a moment, the nanny's eyes flashed with coldness, and she asked with some doubt:

"Ah, isn't this Uchiha Izuna? Are you resurrected?"

When the old lady recognized her, Izuna also recognized the old lady. In an instant, the hairs on his body exploded!

My god, isn't this the famous old witch of the Senju clan, Senju Anxizi?

For him and people of his generation, this guy is not only a hero of the Senju clan, but also a thorn in the eyes of the Uchiha clan!

She is still active on the battlefield at such an old age. In the battlefield where everyone has a short life span, she has lived until she is old. No one knows how old she is!

When Izuna went to the battlefield for the first time, this old woman was already active on the battlefield; when Izuna was chopped by Tobirama and had to leave sadly, this old woman was not dead yet!

This is not over yet. She has even lived all the way to now. This old woman, is she old and smart? !

"Grandma, you've got the wrong person, I'm not Izuna..."

Izuna gritted his teeth, ignored the alarm bells in his heart, and forced a smile.

Mammy didn't say anything, just stared at his face carefully. After a moment, she suddenly realized:

"Oh, then you must be Izuna's son? Or his grandson?"
