after……

The two men chatted relaxedly.

There is no doubt that they have a common language because they are characters standing at the same height. Some scenery can only be seen by them; some problems can only be communicated with each other.

Because of this, they have been fighting each other for a long time, and they have been sympathetic to each other for a long time.

While making tea using the technique taught by her husband, Uchiha listened carefully to the conversation between the two. Then, he pushed two cups of tea with just the right temperature in front of the two men with both hands.

Madara Uchiha picked up the tea and took a sip, raised his eyes to look at the person, and said in a rather gentle tone: "If you feel bored, I will ask my servant to buy you some story books to take home and read." In fact, he originally wanted to let you go home.

The other party went out for a walk by himself, but suddenly he thought that she was pregnant, so she must not run around. Since he was called "brother", he naturally regarded the little girl in front of him as a senior.

"No." Uchiha smiled and shook his head, and said sincerely, "It's quite interesting to listen to Brother Hashirama and Brother Madara talk about things."

"Do you understand?" Uchiha Madara raised his eyebrows.

"Well, it's not difficult to understand, right?" Uchiha replied uncertainly. She felt that she understood, but she was not sure if it was a misunderstanding.

"Oh?" Uchiha Madara became a little more interested. He put down the tea in his hand and asked with interest, "So, if you are the leader of the Tsuruta clan, how should you choose?"

Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara were gossiping about the Craftsman Country, which had nothing to do with them. The Craftsman Country was rumored to be founded by a powerful ninja named "Qingming". It is said that people are still seeking his "

"Resurrection". Of course, this is not the point and has nothing to do with what the two of them are talking about now.

They are talking about the Tsuruta clan living in the country of Takumi. This ninja clan has been trusted by the daimyo of Takumi for generations and can be regarded as the "royal ninja family".

But a few days ago, such a troublesome thing happened——

The boss suddenly fell ill and fell into a coma one day while he was discussing matters in court.

If that were the case, it would be just a normal change of people in power, but the problem is that he had never formally established a successor before.

The eldest son was not born to the first wife, but he was older than the first son; the second son was left by the second wife, and the family was powerful.

The age difference between the two was not very big, and they began to fight. The boss was caught in the middle, and he was very worried, but it was really difficult to make a decision. In the end, his sudden illness directly pushed the entire situation in the worst direction.

go.

During the dispute between the two parties, both parties secretly sent their own gifts to the Tsuruta clan, which had only been loyal to the daimyo for generations, and then waited for the latter's attitude.

This was originally a secret matter, but it could not be hidden from the spies of the Senju and Uchiha, so it was now treated as a "pastime entertainment" by the clan leaders of the two clans.

"Take it." The Uchiha belt replied decisively, "At this time, if you don't accept it, you are offending others, so you must accept it."

"Then who should be accepted?" Senju Hashirama asked with a smile, "The eldest son's or the second son's?"

"Take it all." The Uchiha leader replied seriously, "If someone is rejected, Yatsuichi will suspect that the Tsuruta clan has already sided with the other party, and it is inevitable that he will not hold a grudge."

"What happens after that?" Uchiha Madara asked with raised eyebrows, "When the winner is decided between the two sides, this kind of behavior of two sides will probably be resented as well, right?"

"So the Tsuruta clan must seize the opportunity." Uchiha Oichi smiled and poured tea soup into the tea bowl in front of the two of them again, and continued, "Seeing that the second son is about to lose, he immediately takes action and wins the first prize.

Lord. Vice versa. Anyway, both sides just want an attitude from the Tsuruta clan. They have no intention of really pulling them down. They just want to make sure that they will not favor the other party. Otherwise, they will not just give gifts.

" She put the teapot aside and concluded her speech, "So, the Tsuruta clan only needs to show their most appropriate attitude at the right time, that's enough."

Senju Hashirama: "..."

Uchiha Madara: "..."

The expressions of the two of them were stunned at the same time. It was not that they were surprised by what she said, because of course they could think of things she could think of. They were just amazed that this young girl with an immature face could actually say such a thing, and that it was

After hearing about this incident, I immediately came to a conclusion, and there was almost no time to think about it.

Think about it again...

Well, before Senju Tobirama kneeled down in front of his family in a shocking manner, the Senju family's "Marriage on behalf of others" can now be said to be one of the top gossips in the ninja world. Many people know this Senju Tobirama

The wife's origin is unknown and she is suspected of amnesia.

Originally this was not a strange thing, but...

With such knowledge, it is difficult for people to believe that she comes from an ordinary family. After all, knowledge is often equivalent to status and education. But the question is, if she comes from a good background, why do they have no impression of her and her?

My family has not come to Senju’s door so far?

strangeness.

Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara looked at each other, and the two exchanged a few words with their thoughts:

——Madara, can you guess her origin?

——Can’t guess.

——Hey, what a coincidence, me too.

--……roll.

However, Senju Hashirama wanted to be open-minded. After all, he was a person with a forthright temperament and keen intuition. He knew that his sister-in-law was pure and kind-hearted and had no ill intentions towards the Senju clan. Not to mention, he was naturally suspicious and refused to trust others easily.

My younger brother likes people to the point of almost dying, so what does he have to worry about?

This is a person who can be verified by Tobirama.

As for Uchiha Madara, this is not his family matter, why does he care so much? Moreover, things like fate and goodwill seem to be destined, just as he likes Hashirama and dislikes Senju Tobirama, he thinks

This little girl is quite pleasing to the eye, so there is really no need to assume the worst about her.

So neither of them said anything, but naturally and smoothly brought Uchiha into the conversation.

unconsciously……

It's almost noon.

Uchiha Madara suddenly said: "Hashirama, I should go, otherwise Izuna will be worried, and there are a lot of things happening in my clan recently." After all... well, he just found an excuse to "escape" at random.

came out.

But on the other hand, he was able to still find time to attend Senju Hashirama's appointment despite his busy schedule, which clearly meant that he was very much in his heart.

Senju Hashirama also remembered that he would take his sister-in-law to the bookstore next, so he quickly took out the gift he had prepared for his friend and handed it over with both hands: "Here, Madara, a birthday gift! Happy birthday to you!"

"...There are so many things every year." Uchiha Madara complained (obviously he didn't forget to give Senju Hashirama a gift in the autumn, and then gave it out when he "encountered"). Even so, it was still very...

He happily stretched out his hand to catch the scroll and stuffed it into his arms, "I'll open it when I get back." Hashirama definitely prepared the gift carefully and wanted to see him show an expression similar to surprise. Ha, he

You won't let this guy get his wish easily.

Senju Hashirama: "..." Here we go again, it's Madara as expected!

Well, you can praise me anytime~

Then……

Uchiha Madara silently looked at Uchiha Obi who was still eating the candy balls - her husband had been controlling her daily sugar intake. She was so greedy that she almost regarded this bag of candy as an "elixir".

, one bite is enough to satisfy you~

"...What are you doing?" Uchiha Oichi subconsciously hid the candy bag in his hand behind his back and stammered, "You gave it all to me and you still plan to go back?" The head of the dignified clan wanted to

Don't be so stingy...

Uchiha Madara just wanted to give this cranky little girl a roll of his eyes.

Senju Hashirama laughed out loud. He now understood what his friend meant, so he explained to his sister-in-law: "Madara, Hotaru-chan only found out about your birthday when you came out with me today, so

, it’s impossible to prepare a gift for you~" But I was a little surprised in my heart, because it is indeed rare to see Madara like this.

"Hug, I'm sorry." Uchiha realized what he was doing and said with some embarrassment, "It happened suddenly... otherwise, I will give you two copies of Brother Madara next year?" Brother Hashirama said, Brother Madara's birthday is in December.

On the 24th, she remembered.

"Forget it." Uchiha Madara just asked casually. Since the other party has forgotten, forget it. Don't act as if he wants to be persistent. Seeing that the separation was about to happen, he suddenly remembered something, "By the way, little girl,

How many months are you pregnant?" He remembered hearing Quan Nai mention it before, which seemed to be...

"More than two months, one month younger than Brother Hashirama and Brother Madara's child." Uchiha replied. Then, he subconsciously lowered his head to touch his lower abdomen and said with a smile, "You can't tell at all.

Right?"

"..." Uchiha Madara looked at the other person's expression that turned very motherly for a moment and remained silent.

"Even so, this child already has a fetal heartbeat. If you listen carefully, you can already feel the presence of this child." Uchiha gently stroked his belly back and forth, and then looked up.

The man in front of me, for a moment, felt that he looked like a big cat with a curious face, squatting on the spot and waving its tail randomly, so he asked in a strange way, "Brother Ban, do you want to touch it?"

"...Huh?" Uchiha Madara raised his eyes in surprise and moved his gaze from the opponent's abdomen to the opponent's face.

"Uh... I mean," Ochiha Uchiha didn't know why he asked that question just now, so he explained in a confused manner, "Feel life? Ah, but since Madara, your wife is also pregnant,

Then it must be often... Uh, sorry..." In the end, she didn't know what she was talking about, so she simply shut up and looked at her elder brother for help.

Senju Hashirama: "..." He was about to open his mouth to say something, and then he saw his friend...

Uchiha Madara said: "That would be rude." After saying that, he opened his mouth and bit off the glove on his right hand, and his slender right hand with sharp knuckles slowly reached towards the abdomen of the woman in front of him.

Seeing that she did not show any signs of shrinking, fearing, resisting or even dodging, he safely put his hands on her clothes and carefully touched the life that was gestating in her belly through them, feeling unconsciously in his heart...

…

Well, it turns out that this is what it feels like to touch a growing life...

After a moment, he retracted his hand and commented: "This child is not bad, he will become a great person in the future." After all, both the child's mother and the child himself seem to have a big heart and are not afraid of him at all, right?
