During the Warring States Period, wars were frequent.

Even a big family like Senju cannot escape from the cloud of war. In other words, precisely because of its strength, it has always been at the center of the whirlpool of war.

It is precisely for this reason that it is completely normal to go out to war as soon as you get married.

Senju Hashirama patted his younger brother on the shoulder, and said brightly and a little narrowly, "Tobirama, let the rest of the matter be handled by my elder brother, and go see Shizuki."

Hosokawa Shizuhime, or rather, she should be called "Senju Shizuhime" now, was Senju Tobirama's bride before he went to war. The reason was that it was a common political marriage among the sons of big families in this era.

Senju Tobirama was very calm about this, and had no objection to it, because he had already been mentally prepared. For men like them, marriage was never free. Even the eldest brother, who was the patriarch, chose a political marriage, let alone him.

Not to mention, they really don't have much time or energy to find a woman to have a romantic relationship with again and again. After all, they want to marry a wife and have children. It is legitimate and suitable to marry a wife who is well-matched and can bring benefits to the family.

On the night he married his new wife, there was an urgent news from the clan, so he left his newlywed wife who had just completed the ceremony without saying a word, and went on an expedition with his eldest brother, and did not return until more than a month later.

Guilt, not none, but certainly not too much.

After all, as a ninja's wife, she should endure this. Not today, but also tomorrow and the day after. If she feels sad about this, then she will never feel sad enough.

With such thoughts, Senju Tobirama replied, "No need, brother, I'd better help you handle the follow-up matters first, and then go back."

"But..." Senju Hashirama tried to persuade his younger brother.

Senju Tobirama ended the topic with one sentence: "As my wife, you have to get used to loneliness."

Senju Hashirama "..."

He sighed slightly, but couldn't refute.

He himself is already a husband, and although he has tried very hard to give everything he can to his wife. But, well, he cannot say for sure that "he has never made his wife feel lonely." This may be because of marrying them.

It's the fate of men. They will protect their safety, maintain their dignity, and protect their status... but that's all they can do.

This is probably the fate of political marriage.

But even so, he really hopes that his brother will be compatible with each other. In any case, since getting married is a rare fate, it should be cherished. At least, even if you don't "love", you should try to like the other person and let the other person fully feel it.

feel this kind of caring.

Tobirama, if he wants to, he can definitely do it.

but……

Will he?

Regardless of the worries in Senju Hashirama's heart, Senju Tobirama completed his work conscientiously. It was morning when he returned home, and it was already the afternoon when everything was done. He sorted out all the documents and gave instructions.

After some time, at the urging of his elder brother, he set foot on the road back to his small courtyard.

"Tobirama-sama."

"Tobirama-sama."

…

"Yes." Qianju Tobirama nodded slightly, responded to the servant's salute, and asked, "Where is Madam? Is she in the house?"

"No." A servant kneeling not far from him lowered his head and replied, "Madam took a short rest after lunch and went for a walk as usual. According to usual habits, it will take about half an hour before she returns.

, Lord Tobirama, do you need to invite her back?"

Qianju Tobirama thought for a moment and said to the trembling servant, "No need, I'll go find her." Since the eldest brother got married, the two brothers have occupied a small courtyard alone. Although his courtyard is not small, it is

It's not very big, so it won't take long to find someone.

"……yes."

He raised his eyebrows slightly, feeling very interesting.

He has always been keen, and the servants in the courtyard have been with him for a long time, so he can tell at a glance that these servants are worried about his new wife - worried that her behavior of not waiting to welcome him will anger him

.

Um?

Has it "conquered people's hearts" in just one month?

I don't know if it's because of his nature or because he's good at winning people's hearts, but no matter what, at least it shouldn't make his life uneasy from now on.

This is a good thing.

He doesn't have high requirements for his wife. He respects his eldest brother's family, takes good care of the family, gives birth to a few children with reasonable talents for him, and raises them well, and that's it.

He doesn't even need her to take care of him. Anyway, he is enough on his own.

After that, Qian Shu Tobijian dismissed the servants and took a casual walk in the courtyard while looking for his new wife. Not long after, he found her by the lake.

It was the same extremely petite figure as in my memory.

In fact, on the wedding day, he almost suspected that the Hosokawa family had deceived him. This did not look like the age written in the marriage certificate. She clearly looked like a thirteen-year-old girl who was not yet underage. However, the marriage certificate stated that she was already ten years old.

At eight years old, like his twenty-year-old counterpart, he is considered one of the "elderly married people" of this era.

However, considering that the women in the Hosokawa family are generally not tall, it is not understandable. However, she is really a bit too petite. She should be in her early 150s, about 30 centimeters shorter than him.

Senju Tobirama seriously worried about his future children...especially his son's height for a second, but then he thought that he should be able to solve this problem. Moreover, there are other people in the Senju clan who married Hosokawa girls.

Although the wife and daughter of the tribe are not tall, it does not seem to affect the height of the son. After all, the genes of the Senju family are here.

And this marriage also meant that the Hosokawa family officially turned to Senju, and from then on Senju was regarded as the most respected one.

Against the background of this huge benefit, the shortcomings of a newlywed wife can almost be ignored.

Anyway, he didn't have any special preference for women. When his eldest brother asked him about his requirements before getting married, he thought for a long time and could only come up with "As long as it's a woman", which made his eldest brother speechless. But it was really

To be honest, his wife is not the wife of the Senju clan, she just needs to be able to stay at home, respect her brother and not cause trouble. Of course, if she is really dishonest, he will have his own way to deal with it.

Whether she is a virgin or not, whether she is older or younger, or even whether she can have children... Actually, he doesn't particularly care.

Back to business.

Senju Tobirama saw his newlywed wife with her head full of black hair, and her posture was not very good. This back view made him slightly guilty of "Uchiha Madara tsd", but he quickly reminded himself - this is his wife

, not Madara Uchiha in his teenage years.

Then, he saw her reaching out to reach the fish that were snatching food, and then...

"Whoa!"

Several fish shook their tails vigorously.

He immediately slapped her face with water.

She was like a cat that was thrown out of the water after failing to catch a fish. She trembled all over and looked confused.

"...Pfft." Qianju Feijian couldn't help but laugh.

"Who?!" She immediately turned around.

The next second, the two people's eyes met.

Senju Tobirama thought to himself, well, he's quite smart, and his laughter is by no means loud. Seeing her instantly switch to a guarded posture, she seems to be quite vigilant.

It was not until this moment that he saw his newlywed wife's face clearly.

On the day of the ceremony, her face was smeared with white powder and her head was lowered, so she couldn't really see clearly.

Well, she is a beauty.

I have to say that Qianju Tobirama breathed a sigh of relief.

Don't get me wrong, it's not because of his wife's looks or not, he doesn't care about that, but because her appearance doesn't resemble Madara Uchiha as much as her back. Of course, this is a matter of course. An Uchiha marrying a Senju? It's simply

This is the most ridiculous thing in the world.

Unfortunately, he didn't know that his "wife" was indeed an Uchiha. An Uchiha who accidentally traveled to the Warring States Period, lost his memory, and married into the Senju family for various reasons - Uchiha Otoko.

Senju Tobirama, who was brutally slapped in the face, only thought that the girl in the distance was pretty and cute, with a pair of round, smart and big black eyes - this looked a bit like his elder brother, which, I have to say, aroused some affection in him.

She looked at him blankly, stunned for a moment, then seemed to realize something, stood up quickly, and then ran all the way over with the somewhat complicated multi-layered kimono skirt, until she stopped in front of him, and then

A bow and salute: "Husband, my lord, welcome back!!!"

"Yes." Senshou Tobirama nodded slightly, "I'm back." Then, he saw the girl straighten up and look at him a little at a loss, as if she didn't know what to say or do next.

This made him a little suspicious.

Although he had no interest in her, his eldest brother "naggled" her carefully in his ear - she was a woman trained by the Hosokawa family for marriage. In order to conform to the so-called "noble aesthetics" of this era, she had been accepted since she was a child.

It was the so-called "noble women's education", but now it seems that it doesn't really look like it.

This is not to say that her behavior is vulgar, but she is obviously not used to wearing the complicated kimono, and her posture is definitely not like that of a woman who has fully learned how to serve her husband.

What's going on?

Too nervous?

Or should I say...

"Um..." After she was at a loss for a moment, she whispered, "Husband, sir, you are still wearing your battle armor. Have you just come back from the battlefield? I, I will help you bathe and change clothes?"

Qianju Tobirama was silent for a moment and nodded again, "Okay."

He has a mysophobia and can't force it on the battlefield, but he loves cleanliness at home. If it wasn't to show how much he values ​​her, he would have taken a bath and changed his clothes long ago.

She immediately breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled, "Then, let's go."

Senju Tobirama then turned around, and she followed him step by step, half a body behind him. She looked well-behaved and obedient, and there seemed to be nothing wrong with him.

Soon after, his single...no, their couple's bathroom arrived.
