A nobleman who had just returned to his mansion was held tightly in his mother's arms and nearly suffocated by the weapon.

Meanwhile, someone who had already accepted the master as a friend saw that things were not going well and quietly left the place, returning to their own villa.

"Not even a single guard! What if they get injured?!"

"How am I supposed to live like this?!"

Miki held her son, tears welling in her eyes.

For the past two weeks, she has been extremely worried every day.

Previously, my son always had bodyguards with him when he went out to do business, and news of his trips was also sent back.

This time she left the village completely alone, and if something happened, she really didn't want to live anymore.

Mom really doesn't need to exaggerate like that.

Kiyoshi didn't say anything in the end, but instead hugged his mother tightly.

Although her mother was very talkative and also quite clumsy, she was good at nothing except dancing and singing.

However, his mother was the first person he met whose affection and trust for him were at their highest level.

He never did anything for her.

"Mom, I'm sorry."

Miki sobbed as she looked up and roughly rubbed Kiyoi Gen's head.

Finally, she couldn't help but kiss her son's forehead to calm herself down.

"It's always like this!"

"Mom knows you're working hard, but you must never disregard your own safety."

"You're forbidden from leaving my side today!"

Kiyoshi nodded with a wry smile.

This mother doesn't seem mature at all.

Never mind, as a child, I should still meet my mother's reasonable needs.

"Mom, will you come with me to the office today?"

Miki's eyes suddenly lit up with delight.

Do you need Mom's help?

No, thank you.

"If Mom helps, the workload today would probably double."

"Waaaaah, Mommy, Mommy, I didn't mean to that time!"

Seeing that his mother looked like she was about to cry, Kiyoshi Gen had no choice but to pat her head and comfort her.

"Mom, just stay by my side."

"With my mom around, my work efficiency will definitely improve a lot."

"Really?"

"It really is! More real than pearls!"

Miki stopped crying and started laughing, revealing a satisfied smile.

Call ~

Finally, they've calmed her down.

Although his mother is impeccable in terms of manners and etiquette in public, she always acts like a child in front of him, especially when they are alone.

However, it doesn't matter. After all, with him around, there's no need to worry about my mother's food, clothing, and safety. He will take good care of her.

As a result, the Mingzhu Mansion office became lively in the afternoon.

"Xiao Yuan, Xiao Yuan, come and rest for a bit. Mom has made you some tea."

"Xiao Yuan, Xiao Yuan, you've been working for half an hour, you should take a break."

"Xiao Yuan, Xiao Yuan, Mom, Xiao Hui, and Xiao Ai will dance for you to relax."

Qingjingyuan picked up his teacup and slowly savored it.

In front of him, his mother Miki and his two younger sisters, Kiyoi Megumi and Kiyoi Aimasa, were dancing a court dance that was widely popular in Daimyo Castle.

The three women, dressed in kimonos of different colors, performed a beautiful dance for Kiyoi Gen with fans adorned with bells.

She smiled sweetly, her beautiful eyes sparkling.

Although there is no string and wind instrument accompaniment, it still has an exquisite charm.

Speaking of which, why did he forget that his own mother couldn't bear to see him working so hard?

Fortunately, Xiao Hui took care of most of the work for him.

Thinking of his mother, Miki, sitting timidly beside him, her expression a mixture of fear of disturbing him and a desire to prevent him from overworking himself, Kiyoi Gen couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle.

He gazed at the three women dancing gracefully, his eyes softening.

Only when he was dancing and playing the piano would his mother be genuinely happy because she was doing what she loved.

It was her love for dance and music that made her a renowned geisha.

However, after becoming the daimyo's concubine, her audience consisted only of the daimyo and his son.

As for now

Kiyoshi Gen temporarily put aside his official duties and enjoyed the beautiful dance.

I'll spend today with my mother and make her happy, as an apology for leaving without saying goodbye.

Well, I should prepare some small gifts for my younger sisters later.

He'll be in charge of cooking dinner tonight.

It's time to put to good use the "Master Chef" qualities he's worked so hard to cultivate.

After all, in order to develop himself as quickly as possible, the first trait he cultivated was "eagerness to learn," and he gradually cultivated some other traits that could be considered useful afterward.

At night, Madara Uchiha, who was cooking and eating for himself, came to the courtyard.

He gazed at the moon appearing in the darkness, letting his ideals race through his mind.

Back in Konoha, he often spent his nights like this.

"spot!"

Madara Uchiha's eyebrows twitched.

"Uncle Ban!"

Good grief, this time two troublesome people have come to bother him together!

There was another unfamiliar presence, that of the girl who often followed Yuan, I think her name was Kiyoi Megumi.

"Squeak."

Kiyoi Gen brought his two younger sisters into Madara's house.

From today onwards, this place belongs entirely to Ban.

Madara Uchiha narrowed his eyes, asking with a probing gaze.

Aren't you going to stay with your mother?

Kiyoshi Gen scratched his face and explained.

“My mother insisted on drinking earlier, but she has now fallen asleep. Xiaochun and the others are taking care of her at home.”

"So, we've come to play with Uncle Ban!"

Kiyoi Ai skipped over to Madara's side and placed a flask of sake on the corridor.

"I'll go get the wine glasses."

After saying that, she ran into the room.

Madara Uchiha looked at the pot of sake and roughly understood.

They came to ask him for a drink.

At this moment, Kiyoi Gen, holding his younger sister Kiyoi Megumi's hand, sat down next to Madara.

I don't drink alcohol.

"Dong dong dong."

Kiyoi Ai ran out and placed four small wine glasses next to the two of them, then sat down next to Madara.

Using the small sake flask as a dividing line, Kiyoi Gen and Kiyoi Megumi were on one side, while Uchiha Madara and Kiyoi Ai were on the other side, making it look like they were about to have a cocktail party.

"This is a wine with very little alcohol; it's just a simple beverage."

Kiyoi Megumi remained kneeling, gracefully picked up the small sake pot, and poured clear, deep red wine into each of the four glasses.

"Uncle Ban, this is a drink carefully brewed by the Palicoes, so even children can drink it."

Well, it seems there's no escaping it this time.

Madara Uchiha picked up the small wine glass and took a sip.

The taste is alright, not too sweet.

It suits his taste quite well.

"Speak, what brings you here?"

Kiyoshi Gen also picked up his glass, smiling and shaking his head.

"How about I come and casually chat with you about our ideals?"

"Let's not talk about work today."

Madara Uchiha glanced at Gen Kiyoi, his eyes seemingly filled with suspicion.
