Madara, let's change the world together!

They also knew that Qingjingyuan would visit Lan's home for one or two days every month.

I haven't been able to go this month because of the summer festival and Moon World events, so it's normal to go now.

"Okay, brother, be careful."

Kiyoshi nodded to the three of them, then teleported away.

He needs to go to the kitchen first.

Lan entered her home.

Her home wasn't big, just right for a family of three.

She took off her shoes, changed into casual trousers and a short-sleeved shirt, and then picked up the half-finished sweater she had been knitting for a while.

Lan came to the small living room and sat on the small sofa, knitting to pass the time.

Twenty-four years have passed since I followed Kiyoi Gen to this place to establish Hatsuri Village.

She lived a very ordinary life almost every day.

Tired of the life of a ninja living on the edge, Kiyoi Gen gave her this job.

So she continued knitting for another half hour until she got a little hungry and wanted to cook a simple meal to fill her stomach.

"Dong dong!"

Lan heard the knocking and immediately knew who had come to visit, and her mood involuntarily improved a little.

"Please come in!"

The sound of a lock being opened rang out, and Kiyoshi Gen walked in.

Lan was not surprised; she gave Qingjingyuan a spare key.

Normally, only Kiyoshi Gen and Kiyoshi Ai come here often.

During this time period, only Kiyoshimoto would come.

"Sister Lan, I've come to see you."

Kiyoshi saw the yarn in Ran's hand, which was already a common sight.

Most of the things the other person knitted were as keepsakes.

In memory of her deceased husband and children.

However, she would occasionally knit something as a gift. For example, Kiyoi Gen, Kiyoi Ai, and Miki all received scarves knitted by her.

"Xiao Yuan, what brings you here?"

Lan couldn't help but smile.

"Ah, I just wanted to see my sister."

Kiyoshi picked up what he was carrying.

Let's celebrate the day we met.

Lan's smile deepened.

"You don't need to come every year."

"No, this is a very important day for me."

Kiyoshi took the box out and placed it on the dining table.

Lan first went to get a small knife, and then followed.

Every year around this time, Kiyoyuki would make a small cake, which the two of them would share and have a heart-to-heart talk.

It has to be said that Lan really likes this time of day.

When Lan opened the box, there was a picture drawn on the small cake with cream, depicting a mother handing love to her child.

Lan was stunned for a moment, and then her right hand was firmly grasped.

"Xiao Yuan?"

Kiyoshi sighed.

"Sister Lan, no matter how many times I come, you are the only one in the house."

"Have you never thought about remarrying all these years?"

Lan didn't pull her hand away from being held; she just smiled bitterly.

"Xiao Yuan, I'm almost fifty years old."

"But Sister Lan, you are clearly still a great beauty."

"Sexy, beautiful, and gentle, I've heard that many people want to pursue you."

Kiyoshi Gen wasn't lying; he possessed a [Flowing Law Seal] similar to the [Yin Seal]. Lan's appearance was frozen at twenty-eight years old, an age where maturity and youth coexisted.

Lan shook her head.

She genuinely wasn't in the mood and preferred to remain single.

Moreover, she won't lose her ability to take care of herself just because she's older, so why can't she continue to be single?

"Sister Lan, I don't want to see you continue like this."

"You helped me in the prime of your youth and dedicated everything to Churi Village."

"Then let me take care of you for the rest of your life."

Lan looked up, somewhat surprised.

What does this sentence mean?

"Sister Lan, you must be feeling quite lonely living here all by yourself. Why don't you come stay at my place?"

"It just so happens that I also need your help with something."

Kiyoshi Gen scratched his face; he had come here with a reason in mind beforehand.

"My mother really didn't know how to explain it."

"You know that there are many people living in my house now, and they all sleep in the same bedroom."

"I want to change it, but I can't."

“If you move in with me, I’ll have a reason to renovate the bedroom, and my mom will have another companion.”

“Kaguya knows almost nothing, yet she follows my mother around every day, learning this and that. I’m a little worried about her.”

"If you, Sister Lan, are there for them, I won't have to worry about anything."

Lan covered her mouth and chuckled softly.

So that's what it was about. She knew Miki's childlike nature.

"Sister Lan"

Kiyoshi Gen was serious and held her hand tightly.

"The past cannot be undone, but the present and the future can be changed."

“If Sister Lan doesn’t plan to start a new life, then I’ll take care of you for the rest of your life.”

"Although we call each other brother and sister, I have always regarded Sister Lan as half a mother."

Lan pursed her lips, and she thought of the letter that Qingjing Yuan had written to her.

Many years have passed, and Kiyoshi Gen has completely grown into a tall man, transforming from a child into a reliable adult.

Mom?

She relied on loving little Kiyoi Gen as her own son to fill the void in her heart and get through that most difficult time.

Unexpectedly, their relationship only grew stronger with age, and sometimes they really were no different from an ordinary mother and son.

"I see."

"If Xiaoyuan needs me, I'll agree."

Kiyoshi breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled and said.

"Then I'll go back and tell my mom that you can officially move in tomorrow, Sister Lan."

Therefore, Uchiha Madara, who knew Wood Release, was invited by Kiyoi Gen to come and help.

Their bedroom finally underwent a major renovation.

It's basically divided into many rooms, with a living room connecting all the bedrooms.

Lan successfully integrated into the small group of Miki and Kaguya Otsutsuki, becoming a member of the mothers' group.

That night, Kiyoshi Gen slept soundly all by himself.

Chapter 86 The Kiyoi Family's Holiday Morning

Kiyoshi Gen is enjoying one of his only four short vacations of the year.

As for work, it has been postponed to three days later.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that Kiyoi Gen had made arrangements in advance, as these two days were the final inspection before the summer festival.

In the early morning, Qingjingyuan opened his eyes and climbed out of his soft, large bed.

It's so nice to sleep alone; I can roll around in bed however I want.

Unlike when I was a child, when my mother would hold me to sleep, I was so suffocated that I couldn't move, and I had to be careful that I wouldn't suffocate.

After taking off his pajamas and changing into a casual yukata, Kiyoi Gen stepped out of his small bedroom.

All that could be seen from outside was Kiyoi Aki, the younger sister, who was arranging decorations in the living room.

Xiao Qiu was wearing her usual orange fitted yukata with maple leaf patterns.

At 1.62 meters tall, she is the second tallest among the four sisters. Not only is she beautiful, but she also has a great figure.

Good morning, brother.

"Xiaochun and Xiaodong are preparing breakfast, it will be ready soon."
