Volume 1 Chapter 163 Love from Mother-in-law
"Qian Yue?"
When Mikoto's mother saw Chitose coming to her house with gifts, she thought she was seeing things.
She put down the teacup in surprise, trotted up to him in her wooden clogs, gave him a big hug, and kept touching his face with her hands.
"You've grown up, you really have. You little brat, you haven't come to see your aunt in all these years."
"It hurts, it hurts!!"
Qianyue, whose face was pinched, cried out, although she didn't really use any strength.
"Stop yelling, it's useless."
He patted Qianyue in annoyance, then took the gift he brought and put it away.
The two of them sat in the yard, and Mikoto's mother looked at Chitsuki who was fidgeting and sighed.
Since childhood, Qianyue has hated kneeling because her knees and feet would hurt after sitting for a long time.
Mikoto's mother didn't expect that even after growing up, Chitose still couldn't adapt.
"My legs hurt."
Smiling, Qianyue still chose to sit cross-legged, as kneeling was really uncomfortable.
"You little brat."
After scolding with a smile, Mikoto's mother carefully observed Qianyue, and the more she watched, the more interested she became.
"Still so handsome."
“Always handsome.”
Facing the familiar elders, Qianyue also started to act naughty.
"Don't give me that."
Mikoto's mother poured him a cup of tea and asked:
"Are you here to look for Mikoto? She's at work at the police department and won't be back until the evening. Because of the war, the work at the police department has become much more stressful."
Whenever war comes, there are always some short-sighted spies who come to cause trouble.
At times like this, the police department was always very busy, and even civilian staff like Uchiha Mikoto had to work overtime every day and could only go home at night.
"no."
Shaking her head, Qianyue said, "I'm here to ask my aunt for help."
"Looking for me?"
She wouldn't be surprised that Chitsuki came to see Uchiha Mikoto because the two had a good relationship since childhood.
Now it is even more of a sensation.
In everyone's eyes, they had gotten it right a long time ago.
But Mikoto's mother didn't expect that Qianyue came to see her.
It looks like I need help.
"right."
Qianyue put down the teacup:
"I'm opening a restaurant with a friend, and I need a familiar and reliable person to work as the cashier to avoid conflicts in the future, so the first person I thought of was my aunt."
"Open a restaurant?"
"Cashier?"
"I?"
Mikoto's mother pointed at herself.
"Yes, in Konoha, apart from my aunt, I don't know who else to ask for help. This kind of thing can't be left to outsiders."
Qianyue wasn't just saying flattering words, she meant it.
If Mikoto's mother doesn't agree, he really can't find any other suitable candidate.
He had even made plans to pry Uchiha Mikoto away.
"Thank you for your hard work, kid."
Thinking of Chitsuki living alone without anyone to rely on, the sentimental mother Mikoto's eyes turned red and she hugged Chitsuki tightly in her arms.
“........”
Auntie, a hug is not what I want!
Could you please let go?
It's so suffocating.
"I promise!!"
In Mikoto's mother's eyes, Chizuki is half her son.
How can a parent shirk responsibility when something happens to their child?
Besides, she has had nothing to do since she became free. She feels idle all day long, so it would be nice to find something to do to kill time.
"Mom, I bought black pork today."
Uchiha Mikoto, who was supposed to go home in the evening, returned home in the afternoon carrying vegetables.
Uchiha Mikoto couldn't wait to take off her shoes and ran into the house barefoot.
Because she found Qianyue's shoes were still at the door, which meant Qianyue had not left yet.
There is also rest time when working in the police department, and you can ask for appropriate leave.
Uchiha Fugaku approved Uchiha Mikoto's request for leave without even thinking about it.
He also told her to go home and spend time with her mother and brother.
This so-called younger brother is Qianyue......
Even though the affair between Chizuki and Uchiha Mikoto had been widely circulated for a long time, it was not easy for Uchiha Fugaku to point it out directly given his personality.
I can only call him younger brother.
After all, when Chitsuki was a child, she was with Uchiha Mikoto, and their relationship was like that of an older sister and a younger brother.
"Look, I knew you were back and I ran in without even having time to put on my slippers."
Seeing her daughter's panic, Mikoto's mother couldn't help but complain to Chizuki.
"Mother!"
Uchiha Mikoto was too anxious and her face turned red, and she stomped her feet in embarrassment.
How could a mother talk about her daughter like this?
"It seems that I, an old woman, talk too much. Well, you young people should chat more and improve your relationship. I will go to cook."
Opening the refrigerator and taking out a bottle of orange juice that Qianyue likes to drink, Uchiha Mikoto blushed:
"Mom likes this sometimes. By the way, when are you going back to the village?"
Uchiha Mikoto remembered that when she went to see Kushina before, Kushina told her that Chitsuki had left the village because of a mission.
As for when to come back, it all depends on God's will.
I didn't expect that Qianyue would come back after just a few days.
"I came back yesterday. I had something to do today, so I came to see my aunt and asked her for help."
Qianyue smiled and briefly told the story of opening a restaurant with Kushina.
If it weren't for this matter, he wouldn't have entered the Uchiha clan's territory at will.
To be honest, most people in Konoha don't like to come here, one is the Uchiha clan's land, and the other is the Hyuga clan's land.
As long as you get close to these two places, you will find that you are being stared at as soon as you walk in.
"That's great. Mom has nothing to do. If I work as a cashier, she won't have to stay at home all day and get bored."
Uchiha Mikoto thought Chitsuki’s idea was good.
It's like killing two birds with one stone. It allows my mother to do something and also provides a reliable person to watch over the store.
If this store only belonged to Kushina, there would be no need to go through so much trouble.
It can be solved by just hiring someone.
But since it involves a lot of people from the Uzumaki clan, we need to be careful.
This is why Qianyue needs to find a trustworthy person to work as the cashier and keep accounts.
Cashiering is secondary, the main thing is bookkeeping.
If one of them is not handled properly, Kushina will be caught in the middle and be torn.
"The police department is busy, right?"
"It's okay. I work as a clerical worker. I am responsible for transcribing the confessions of some prisoners and then organizing them. Sometimes it's very leisurely, and sometimes it's very busy. But it's much better than the patrol team."
Being on patrol is really hard work. No matter whether it is day or night, you have to go on patrol as long as it is your shift. If you have something else, you can also ask someone to take over your shift.
But I have to make up for it later.
The work of the police department is not as easy as it seems.
"Your team should have some time to rest next, right?"
There are relatively few examples of Qianyue who just retired from the battlefield and immediately carried out a special mission. According to Uchiha Mikoto's idea, he will stay in the village for a while.
"Don't mention it. Team Chizuki has changed their names. Minato and Nawaki have also gone to the battlefield of River Country. The Hokage-sama wants me to be a guiding jonin."
Qianyue leaned back in her chair, crossed her legs and complained:
"Give me three weird students."
"Instructing the jonin?"
Uchiha Mikoto's beautiful eyes widened.
