"Said?"

Naruto showed a puzzled expression, thought for a while and said: "If you have to say something, then please tell the brothers and sisters who are with you for me."

"I will definitely tell you word for word!"

Jie Chengtao looked at Naruto with a serious expression, his mind was highly concentrated, and he didn't want to miss a word.

"Please tell me the truth, just say, this world has given you too much malice and suffering, but no matter when, please don't lose hope."

Naruto looked at Jie Chengtao tenderly, and said softly:

"The world kisses me bitterly and asks me to sing in return."

Jie Chengtao stared blankly at Naruto opposite, and stammered, "Well...and then?"

"Then?"

Naruto looked at Jie Chengtao in surprise and said, "Then it disappeared, that's it."

After saying that, Naruto turned around and left, but Jie Chengtao grabbed Naruto behind him.

"Is there nothing you want us to do?"

Jie Chengtao bit her lower lip, said with red eyes, "No matter what it is, it's fine."

"We orphans only rely on your kindness to continue to live and have our current life."

Jie Chengtao choked up and said, "Such a life-saving grace, even if we are orphans, we will always think of repaying your kindness."

Naruto looked at Yu Chengtao who suddenly burst into tears, sighed deeply and said:

"I probably understand what you mean, so what do you want to do?"

"There are a total of [-] orphans who have received wooden ramen in the past two years. Everyone will keep this kindness in their hearts."

Jie Chengtao looked at Naruto seriously, and said in a serious tone: "As long as you say a word, even if you risk your life, we will repay your kindness——"

"Wait a moment!"

Naruto suddenly interrupted Yu Chengtao, frowned and said, "Miss Yucheng Tao, I think there seems to be some misunderstanding between us."

"Misunderstanding?" Jie Chengtao was taken aback.

"When I helped you all back then, I never thought that I would get something in return someday."

Naruto frowned:

"I don't have anything to ask you to risk your life to do. As long as you live a good life, it is the best reward for me."

"However, it is an indisputable fact that you saved the lives of us orphans!"

Jie Chengtao said anxiously, "If it wasn't for you, I'm afraid we'd already—"

"It's not me who saved you, but countless good people with good intentions."

Naruto sighed softly, pointed to the passers-by around him and said:

"I just put forward an idea, and this idea alone cannot save you.

It is countless good people with good intentions who gather together little by little to truly implement this idea.

So what you have to thank is not me, but countless such ordinary good people. "

Jie Chengtao stared blankly at Naruto, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Although it was night at this time, Jie Chengtao felt that Naruto was as dazzling as the sun, the brilliance shining in his eyes overshadowed even the stars in the sky.

"So, as long as you live a good life, it is the best reward for us."

Naruto gently took Jie Tao's hand: "It's getting late, your younger brothers and sisters should still be at home waiting for you to go back."

"Go back and live a good life."

Naruto waved with a smile, turned and left, and this time, Jie Chengtao didn't stop him.

Just as Naruto was about to walk out of the street, a loud shout came from behind him.

"May I know your name?"

Jie Chengtao stood where he was, and shouted at Naruto with tears streaming down his face: "Can you tell me?"

Naruto turned his head and grinned, stretched out his arms heartily and gave a thumbs up and said:

"Of course it's okay! Remember it, my name is Uzumaki Naruto!" Jie Chengtao returned to his residence in a trance. This is an abandoned house on the edge of the village. It's still dilapidated, but at least it's sheltered from the wind and rain inside.

In the room, a group of plainly dressed children were eagerly guarding in front of a large pot, and the hot porridge in the pot was gurgling and steaming.

In the hot porridge, apart from white rice, there are also some unknown wild vegetables picked from the roadside, and even sporadic shredded pork can be seen in the tumbling hot porridge.

Although the children were all drooling looking at the hot porridge in the cauldron, no one did it without authorization.

Because this pot of porridge is the result of everyone's joint efforts, only the one that Sister Tao personally distributes to her own bowl is considered her share.

With Jie Chengtao's return, many children immediately cheered.

"Sister Tao is back!"

"Yeah, dinner is ready!"

Jie Chengtao smiled and patted the head of a younger sister who ran over, picked up a spoon and began to share the food, and the children also lined up obediently with small bowls.

Thanks to Naruto's wooden brand ramen, the group of Yuchengmomo successfully survived the most difficult period when they first entered the village.

The older children gradually found a job, and went out to work before dawn every day.

The younger children who can't go out to earn money, don't lie down and enjoy the blessings as they should, but try to do what they can.

For example, picking wild vegetables nearby, or cleaning the room, or even picking up dead branches dropped by the roadside as firewood.

Although life is still relatively poor, at least there is a place to stay, and I can eat enough, so I don't have to worry about it anymore.

There is hope in life, which is better than anything else.

"Sister Peach, Sister Peach."

A little girl who received hot porridge approached Jie Chengtao and said curiously:

"Sister Tao, why did you go there before? She came back later than usual."

Jie Chengtao is looking for a job of washing vegetables and cutting meat in the back kitchen of a barbecue restaurant. Apart from being a little tired, there is no other problem. Occasionally, he can bring back some scraps left over from the barbecue restaurant. The shredded pork in the hot porridge just now is Jie Cheng Tao's credit.

"My sister went to visit a great benefactor who should have been thanked long ago."

Jie Chengtao gently touched the little girl's head and said, "That's why I came back a little late."

"I am back!"

At this time, a boy who just came back from part-time work returned to the house, smiled and lifted a carp in his hand and said:

"Look at what I brought back today. The owner of the fish shop sold the rest and gave it to me directly!"

"Brother Longsheng!"

The little girl cheered, hugged the man's leg and said:

"Sister Tao told me just now that she went to meet a great benefactor that she should have met a long time ago. Does Brother Longsheng know who it is?"

"A Tao, what did you say?"

Hearing what the little girl said, Hase Longsheng said excitedly:

"Is it the one you mentioned before, the wooden ramen man—"

"Be quiet!"

Jie Chengtao glared at the other party fiercely: "That benefactor doesn't like to make public!"

"Oh."

Hase Longsheng scratched his head and couldn't help complaining:

"It's not that you have been unwilling to say who it is. Everyone wants to thank that benefactor."

"I already asked today, and the benefactor said that he doesn't want us to do unnecessary things."

Jie Chengtao recalled Naruto's words at that time, and still couldn't help feeling admiration in his heart:

"The benefactor said that as long as we live a good life, that is the greatest repayment to him."

"that's it?"

Chang Gu Longsheng was suddenly dumbfounded: "It's gone?"

Jie Chengtao also said dejectedly, "It's gone."

"A Tao, I didn't mean you."

Hase Longsheng couldn't help but put on a reproachful tone:

"Even if the benefactor says he doesn't want us to speak up, we can't really do nothing. After all, we rely on him to survive."

"I know."

Jie Chengtao said lightly, "So I've already thought about it."

Hase Longsheng showed a questioning expression: "So?"

"Now that we can't even take care of ourselves, it would be a bit too much for our benefactors."

Jie Chengtao calmly analyzed:

"So we should listen to our benefactor, live a good life, accumulate strength, and wait until the benefactor really needs our help, so that we will not be helpless."

"Makes sense!"

Hearing Jie Chengtao's analysis, Zhang Gu Longsheng's eyes lit up, he slapped his thigh suddenly and said:

"It's still A Tao, you are thoughtful, just do as you say! I will inform the other people later."

Having said that, Hase Longsheng only felt comfortable all over, laughed and stood up, held up the carp in his hand and said:

"Come, come, let's have fish soup tonight!"

"Oh! Drink fish soup!"

"Brother Longsheng is the best!"
