Chapter 72 He really is willing to spend money for a woman.
On the dining table, the fried fish had cooled down a bit, with a slight golden-brown tinge around the edges;
The oil from stir-fried rapeseed solidifies into a translucent film at the bottom of the plate;
Only two or three slices of the fried lean meat remained, lying forlornly on the plate.
With a "snap," Mei Terumi used her chopsticks to pick up the last piece of fried lean meat and put it into her mouth.
Her long, dark brown hair was sticking out in a messy, unruly manner, clearly indicating that she had just gotten out of bed.
The loose, light pink pajamas hung askew on her body, revealing a section of her fair shoulder.
Her bright green eyes were filled with grievance, and she mumbled indistinctly, "They didn't even leave me any good food..."
Just then, the door to the master bedroom creaked open.
Uchiha Mitsumine walked out holding Uzumaki Megumi's hand, both of them with flushed faces from the intense exercise.
Huiyi's long red hair was still a little messy, and the neckline of her light purple loungewear was slightly open, revealing her collarbone.
"Bang!"
Mei Terumi slammed her hand on the table, making the bowls and chopsticks clatter.
Her voice was clearly tinged with jealousy as she angrily shouted, "Why didn't you wait for me to have breakfast together?!"
Uchiha Mitsunori frowned, his gaze sweeping over Mei Terumi: "Who told you to stay up so late? Besides, you're a girl, why don't you dress up a bit? Your long hair is all messy, and you're wearing pajamas, what kind of behavior is that?"
Mei Terumi's eyes reddened, and she twisted the hem of her pajamas in a wronged manner: "Who told you not to come back last night! I stayed up very late with Ei-neechan... waaaah... you guys are bullying me!"
Then, she suddenly pointed at Uzumaki Megumi: "And how could you two do such naughty things so early in the morning!"
Huiyi's face flushed red instantly, and she hurriedly adjusted her collar, trying to cover up the ambiguous marks.
She glared at Uchiha Mitsumine with embarrassment and annoyance, blaming him with her eyes for going too far.
Uchiha Mitsumine, however, remained unfazed, raising an eyebrow at Terumi Mei: "So you peeked?"
Mei Terumi was speechless for a moment, her eyes darting around, her ears turning slightly red: "I-I didn't peek! You guys were shouting too loudly! The whole yard could hear you!"
Huiyi was so embarrassed that she wanted to disappear into the ground; even her neck turned pink.
She secretly pinched Uchiha Mitsunori's arm, earning him a meaningful smile in return.
Uchiha Mitsunori walked to the dining table without changing his expression, poured himself a cup of tea, and said, "You slept so late and made Huiyi make breakfast all by herself, and you still have the nerve to complain?"
He took a sip of tea and pointed to the bowls and plates on the table: "After you finish eating, clean up the dishes and the kitchen."
Mei Terumi's eyes suddenly lit up, like a little fox that had spotted its prey.
She skipped and hopped over to Uchiha Mitsunaga, extending her delicate white hand: "Okay, but you have to give me money!"
Uchiha Mitsunori frowned: "Didn't I just give you 50 ryo a few days ago? You've spent it all so quickly?"
"I'm a girl, it's normal for my expenses to be higher!"
Mei Terumi answered with complete confidence, as if it were the most normal thing in the world.
The air in the restaurant seemed to freeze instantly. Huiyi gasped, nearly dropping her teacup.
Uchiha Mitsunori put down his teacup and looked at the little girl in front of him who was so self-righteously asking for money.
"Mei Terumi, you should know that a typical Chunin works themselves to the bone for a month to earn a little over 40 ryo. I gave you 50 ryo, and you spent it all in just a few days?"
Mei Terumi didn't see anything wrong with it at all, instead arguing confidently, "I just arrived in Konoha, isn't it normal for me to spend a lot of money! Bedding, clothes, shoes, imported skincare products and accessories from the Land of Water..."
She suddenly changed her expression, grabbed Sanfeng's arm, and looked up at him with a pleading expression, "Brother Feng~ please give me another 50 taels! Please!"
Mei Terumi's voice was sickeningly sweet, and she deliberately rubbed her face against his arm, just like a little kitten begging for food.
Uchiha Mitsumine was speechless for a moment: "..."
Uzumaki Megumi sighed, rubbing her forehead. "Mei-chan, you can't waste money like this..."
Mei Terumi immediately turned her attention to Megumi Uzumaki: "Megumi-neechan~ You're the best! Look, my hair clip is all worn out, I want to get a new one! And the dessert shop on the corner has new three-color dumplings, I heard they're super delicious! And..."
Uchiha Mitsunori watched this scene and rubbed his temples.
......
Under the blazing midday sun, familiar shouts echoed from the busiest izakaya on the commercial street.
Tsunade seemed to be in a bad mood. She slammed her hand on the table and shouted, "Another pot!"
With Uchiha Mitsumine holding Uzumaki Megumi's left hand and Terumi Mei's right hand, they arrived at Tsunade's dining table.
Tsunade, her eyes glazed with drunkenness, looked up and glanced between the three of them: "Mitsubin, you really know how to have fun. Why did you bring two girlfriends with you?"
Huiyi's face flushed slightly.
Mei Terumi, on the other hand, puffed out her chest and proudly took the arm of Uchiha Mitsunori.
Uchiha Mitsunori walked slowly over and sat down opposite Tsunade: "I want... to ask you... to teach them the 'Yin Seal'."
Tsunade spat out a mouthful of sake and sized up the two girls.
"I won't teach them. The Yin Seal is an S-rank sealing technique, and it takes a long time to learn. I don't have that much time to teach them."
Uchiha Mitsunori took out a sealing scroll and placed it on the table: "The price of an S-rank ninjutsu is about 6000 million ryo, and an S-rank sealing jutsu is even more expensive, about 8000 million ryo. This scroll contains 1.6 million ryo, which can be considered as their tuition fee."
Upon hearing that there were 1.6 million ryo inside the scroll, Mei Terumi's eyes lit up, and her mouth opened into an "O" shape.
Whirlpool Megumi nervously tugged at Mitsumine's sleeve, signaling with her eyes that it was too expensive.
Upon hearing about the large sum of money, Tsunade's drunkenness dissipated somewhat.
Uchiha Mitsunori said with a serious expression, "Tsunade, don't refuse me. I know you sold the Senju clan's property and are currently living in a Konoha inn. With this money, you can buy back the ancestral home."
Tsunade's eyes flickered, clearly showing some interest.
Uchiha Mitsunori suddenly lowered his voice: "Furthermore, Konoha real estate prices are currently falling, but they'll definitely rise again in the future, so I hope you'll buy more properties... Also, the 20 billion ryo for the cloning center construction has arrived, and you'll need some people to help out!"
Upon hearing this, Tsunade's pupils contracted sharply; she understood, of course, what Mitsumine meant.
To revive Rope Tree, a body needs to be cloned from it, and building a cloning center is the first step in the plan.
He threatened me with the rope tree and even offered me 1.6 million taels of silver just to take on these two 'female disciples'.
It seems he's really willing to spend money on his woman.
Finally, Tsunade tilted her head back and downed the drink in her cup, then grabbed the sealing scroll: "Kid, 8 PM, Konoha Inn..."
