That's a sand sculpture.

The sand carvings are of true cultivation.

An old man is sleeping in a rocking chair with a cat in his arms.

It looked so peaceful.

Even the wrinkles on the face are extremely detailed.

"Is it made of sand? You have a lot of artistic talent."

Gaara does have artistic talent, otherwise, how could he use moves similar to Shukaku's Shield instantly?

That was a huge sand sculpture created in an instant.

Zhenxiu smiled and picked up the sand sculpture.

The exquisite appearance is truly amazing.

Under the sand sculpture, there is a piece of paper and coins.

"Grandpa, you were asleep, so I didn't disturb you. This money is for food. I don't know if it's enough, but I only have so much, so I'll give it to you. If it's not enough, I'll come over next time

I’ll give it to you when the time comes. I’ll just give this sand sculpture to you, hee hee.”

The child's tone made Zhen Xiu feel warm in his heart.

That feeling is somewhat similar to Tsunade from before.

No, it's a bit like Tsunade who used to beg for her.

Other times, Tsunade is fierce.

"Twelve taels and a bowl of golden fried rice are not enough. But if you add these two pieces together, it's almost enough."

Zhenxiu smiled and placed the sand sculpture somewhere in the store.

A nice decoration, isn't it?

After Zhen Xiu put it away, he sat on the rocking chair again.

The years are quiet and peaceful, and this is probably what it will look like.

The squeaking rocking chair seems to be rocking the traces of time, both sound and tangible.

Time passes day by day.

It has been three days since Gaara left.

On this day, a young man with light yellow hair came.

His name is Yashamaru.

The Fourth Kazekage's brother-in-law and Gaara's uncle.

Yashamaru pushed open the door of the restaurant and saw Shinshu sitting on the rocking chair.

Zhenxiu opened his eyes slightly, smiled, and said, "What would the guest want to eat?"

That lazy look surprised Yashamaru.

Laotou Restaurant is quite famous in Sunagakure.

But Yashamaru never came.

the reason is simple.

He can cook.

People who can cook rarely go out to eat.

What's more, it's a store so far away from where I live.

Yashamaru and this restaurant are located at opposite ends of Sunagakure. Unless I have something to do on weekdays, I wouldn't come here at all.

And the reason why he came here today is also very simple.

Because Gaara mentioned this store.

Yashamaru is the only person in the whole village who is willing to take care of Gaara.

But he won't follow Gaara all the time.

After all, he is a ninja and has his own work to do.

When I am busy on weekdays, I will let Gaara go free.

This gave Gaara a chance to go out and accept the discrimination and beatings from other people in the village.

And these two days, when he saw Gaara, Gaara would always mention this restaurant.

Out of curiosity and concern for Gaara, Yashamaru came here, intending to see what this restaurant that Gaara cared about looked like.

He originally thought it would be a high-end restaurant, but he didn't expect that when he entered, he felt as if he had arrived at an old man's residence.

The casual look is surprising.

Especially when the old man opened his eyes and stood up, Yashamaru was afraid that the old man would fall.

Fortunately, the other party opened his mouth and asked me what food I wanted to eat.

Otherwise, Yashamaru really suspected that he was in the wrong place.

After all, there is no signboard here at all.

"Hello, old gentleman, are you the boss here?"

Yashamaru said respectfully.

He didn't look down on the true cultivator just because he looked weak.

"That's right. I'm the only one here."

After Zhenxiu finished speaking, the meat ball next to him slapped him.

"Haha, no, we need to add this cat."

Zhenxiu showed that kind smile.

Yashamaru was stunned for a moment, looked at the meat ball, and couldn't help but admire it in his heart.

What a beautiful orange cat.

I don’t know if the patterns on the body are natural or imprinted later.

The originally ordinary orange cat has become somewhat mysterious.

"The old gentleman's life is really peaceful."

Feeling the friendly atmosphere, Yashamaru couldn't help but relax.

What's more, in his perception, the true cultivator in front of him did not pose any threat.

Just an ordinary old man.

"It's not bad. Guest, do you still want to order?"

Zhenxiu asked again.

"Yes, sir, what do you have here?"

"The names of commonly used dishes are all there. But if you want to eat something else, I can make it as long as I have the ingredients."

Zhenxiu leaned on the rocking chair, gently caressed the flesh ball, and seemed to say these words while half asleep.

Yashamaru was not surprised when he saw this, and his eyes fell on the menu.

That's a menu written on a wooden board.

There are only a few names for the dishes, such as fried rice, sushi, ramen, etc.

These are extremely broad names for dishes, and I don’t know what specific ingredients are included.

There's not even a price written on it.

“The old man’s menu is really simple.”

Yashamaru smiled helplessly.

"As long as you understand it. As for the price, it won't be more expensive than other restaurants."

"The old gentleman is quite sincere."

"It's not really sincere. It's just that when I was writing this menu, I was halfway through writing it. I didn't want to write the rest, so I just put it there."

Yashamaru was stunned for a moment when he heard this. This reason was a bit too casual.

"Then why not make it up later?"

“I wasn’t even willing to write it at the time, so how could I be willing to make up for it later.”

Yashamaru was speechless for a moment.

That makes sense.

After glancing at the menu, Yashamaru had already made his decision.

"Then let's make fried rice."

"Decided?"

"Um."

After hearing this, Zhenxiu stood up, put the meat ball aside, and walked into the kitchen.

The reason why I chose fried rice was naturally because Gaara mentioned it.

There was only Yashamaru left in the store. He felt a little bored and looked around.

This is really a very simple restaurant.

It was surrounded by wood and looked as if it was about to break.

The only things that were noticeable were the relatively new tables, chairs, dishes and chopsticks.

It seems that these are the only things that the boss has carefully prepared.

"Why would Gaara like a place like this? It's really strange."

Yashamaru thought to himself, thinking of Gaara's expression when he was describing this restaurant.

Yashamaru had rarely seen that happy look on Gaara's face.

Because in the past, after Gaara went out, his face was filled with only loss and sadness.

There will be no happiness at all.

But this time, it's different.

Yashamaru is very curious, what exactly is there?

Is it just because of that old gentleman?
