after a while……

The clean-scrubbed blond child put on the Uchiha children's uniform donated by Sasuke Zaizai for free, and sat on the floor at home obediently, letting others look at him.

"Ah..." Uchiha Mikoto looked at it again and again, and said with a smile in her eyes, "It's so cute."

These words are not false words of praise, but the truth.

After all, Uzumaki Naruto is the child of Namikaze Minato and Uzumaki Kushina. Even if the child born from two incredible-looking characters "grows up casually", it will never be ugly. Especially, Uzumaki Naruto also inherited

In addition to his mother's appearance and his father's blond hair and blue eyes, it is no exaggeration to say that when he was a child, he looked like the little angel with wings on his back and a bow and arrow in the imported picture album.

"It's not bad." Uchiha Sasuke, who had just done his best to help his childhood friend wash his hair and take a bath, reached out and pinched little Naruto's cheek, "It's just a little worse than me." Because he already has a son, so

He is very good at bathing children.

Little Naruto blinked his big blue eyes and didn't resist. He just let "the big brother who doesn't speak nicely but is good-looking and a nice person" pinch his face. He is still young and has lived in ignorance so far. He said

It's not an exaggeration to say that he relies on intuition to survive. Therefore, he can clearly distinguish who is malicious to him and who is really kind to him.

Sasuke reached out and tugged at the hem of his clothes, and asked in a sweet voice, "Hey, Naruto, do you want to read the picture album? There are stories about powerful ninjas in it."

"Yeah, yeah, let's see!" Little Naruto nodded quickly.

Sasuke nodded with satisfaction, thinking: Yes, this guy is quite sensible.

Then he dragged the thick-page, exquisite color picture album that his brother had bought from the side, placed it on the floor in front of the two of them, opened it, and asked sideways, "Do you know how to read?"

Uchiha Shisui's clan brother raised an eyebrow: Itachi, I remember that this set of picture albums is quite expensive. The entire bookstore in Konoha only has a few dozen sets in stock. You won't spend all the rewards from a mission here, will you?

?

Uchiha Itachi blinked, a smile overflowing from his eyes: Is there any more suitable way to use the reward than to buy something for Sasuke? It is worth it if it can make him happy.

Uchiha Shisui: "..." I really belong to you.

Uchiha Sasuke curled his lips: Tsk, here it comes again, here it comes again, is it interesting to make eye contact with each other with eyebrows?

Uchiha Saya stretched out her hand and tugged on her father's clothes, and said with her eyes: Dad, don't be jealous~ Come on, let us father and daughter also make eye contact.

Uchiha Sasuke raised his eyebrows and smiled, raised his hand and touched his daughter's head, then pushed her back and motioned her to play with the two little ones. Since they were about the same age, they would definitely be able to play together.

Uchiha Saya: "..." Hey, my father really doesn't understand that among children of the same age, girls are much more mature than stupid boys. In addition, she is a bit like Uncle Weasel in this aspect, and is naturally precocious.

.But it doesn't matter, she is willing to help take care of her father and uncle Naruto when they were young.

"...I only know a little bit." Naruto replied a little embarrassed, "Not many." Sasuke looked like he knew a lot of words, wouldn't he dislike him?

"That's it..." Little Sasuke didn't dislike it, he just nodded, "Then let's look at the picture album and I'll teach you how to read." After all, in his heart, the person next to him was a stupid little fool who couldn't read.

How normal is that? It definitely can’t be compared with a little genius like him. But it doesn’t matter, he will teach the other person, after all, he is older and is the older brother!

"Can, is it okay?" Little Naruto showed a surprised expression.

"But you have to be obedient and read the story at my pace. You can't get distracted, and you can't damage the picture album. My brother bought this for me. It's very precious!"

"Yeah, okay."

"Saya, do you want to come and see it together?"

"Okay~"

"...Naruto, why are you blushing? No matter how beautiful Saya is, you are not allowed to blush. This is my daughter!"

"……ha?"

…

Uchiha Mikoto looked at this scene with a smile.

Uchiha Fugaku had just watched silently. There was no doubt that from the blond child who could be said to be thin and malnourished, he saw the blond Hokage who died young, and the other person also smiled at him.

Promising a better future. He did not doubt the truth of these words, and he sincerely longed for a better future, but it was a pity that everything in the ninja world was so unpredictable.

But what can he do?

The fourth generation did not break the promise during his lifetime, but those policies could not be maintained after his death. He was a hero who gave his life for the village. Unfortunately, after the death of the hero, he could not even protect his own children, so how could he protect Uchi?

What about the Bo clan?

Thinking of this, Uchiha Fugaku sighed, turned his head and said: "Mikoto, go get them some pens and paper. If you are learning to read, you should learn to write at the same time."

Uchiha Mikoto was stunned for a moment, then showed a surprised smile, nodded and replied: "Okay, Anada." She knew that this proved that Fugaku had officially accepted little Naruto's visit.

In the next time...

The three little ones looked at the picture album together with great interest. Little Sasuke and Uchiha Saya taught little Naruto how to read together. The latter grabbed the pen and wrote awkwardly on the paper. Although it looked a little difficult, he smiled.

Very happy.

Uchiha Sasuke watched for a while, then turned and walked out of the house, sitting cross-legged on the wooden corridor outside, looking at the scenery in the courtyard with some trance. Finally, his eyes unconsciously fell on the cloak swinging in the wind in the courtyard.

On the occasion, she said that compared to the serious Konoha green vest ninja uniform, he looked better in a clan uniform or a samurai uniform with a cape, so he always wore it that way.

There is no other meaning, I just hope that she can love him more.

After a while...

Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Itachi sat down next to him, and in this way watched the scenery in the courtyard with him.

After a while...

"The sun is going down soon..." Uchiha Itachi said, "It's time to prepare dinner in a while. Sasuke, it's a rare visit. What do you want to eat tonight?"

Uchiha Sasuke thought for a while and then started to order rudely: "I want to eat the special croquettes made by my mother, and I want to eat the cold cherry tomatoes you made, brother. As for Shisui brother, you..." He turned his head and looked aside.

The curly-haired boy said, "Saye likes to eat your grilled spring fish, the kind that is full of seeds in one bite."

Uchiha Shisui smiled and replied: "Is that so? Well, the spring fish in this season is indeed the most delicious. Itachi, do you have any at home? If not, I will buy some now."

"Yes." Itachi Uchiha nodded with a smile, "I just happened to accompany my mother to buy vegetables this morning. We have all the ingredients Sasuke wants to eat. We can just make them later."

"That's good." Uchiha Shisui looked at the future clan brother who was stunned again, and asked curiously, "What's wrong? Suddenly I feel that you are not in a very high mood."

"I just suddenly thought..." Since the other party asked, Uchiha Sasuke answered honestly, "My wife has been busy recently. I don't know when she will come to pick us up after receiving the signal."

"Um...are you homesick?"

"No, I miss her." Thinking about it carefully, she hadn't seen her for several hours, and she didn't know how many more hours she would not see her after that. Did she realize that he was gone? Was he on the way here? She would think about it.

Him? Are you worried about him? And...

"..."

Uchiha Shisui Black Line.

As a "single cat", he can understand, but not very well.

"You don't understand." Uchiha Sasuke said with deep heart, "The feeling of longing for someone who is in love."

"...Sooner or later you will understand."

"I'm sorry." Uchiha Sasuke turned his head and showed a meaningful smile, "At least in my world, you are still single even at your age." Then, he lived with them, and his brother did the same, so they were

A big family of six.

My parents don't live together, but they live next door to their parents' house anyway after they get married, so it doesn't make much difference whether they live together or not. Usually when the four of them are not free, Saya and Maya are both retired fathers and mothers.

Helped bring it.

Uchiha Shisui: "..." He fully felt the ruthless ridicule of single people from "Chen Chong", but he didn't care very much, after all, he had no idea of ​​love and marriage so far, and, according to the previous

As a result of our casual chat, Itachi will still be single in the future.

With my clan brothers accompanying me, I won’t be afraid of any age~

Anyway, he doesn't have any other relatives, so he doesn't care whether his bloodline can be passed on; as for Itachi... his younger brother is so ambitious, so the pressure on his shoulders will naturally be less, right?

After that, the three of them didn't speak anymore, they just sat side by side silently and looked at the scene outside.

Soon...

It's time for dinner.

Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Itachi walked out of the kitchen to help Uchiha Mikoto in a familiar manner, and the three cubs also played together as usual. Unknowingly, Uchiha Fugaku blended in without any sense of disobedience.

Holding the picture book in both hands, he read the story in a serious manner, and by the way, he explained and commented on it very reliably as a mature ninja, which earned the cubs a "wow" sound.

"Grandpa is so awesome!" Uchiha Saya was very sweet, and she poured out her praises as if they cost nothing. She discovered that her grandfather seemed a bit face-conscious when he was young, but it didn't matter, she knew how to get along with him~

After all, she is his most beloved granddaughter.

"Cough!" Uchiha Fugaku clasped his fists and coughed. He didn't say anything, but he felt really relieved.

"Yeah, father is so awesome." Although Sasuke didn't know why his father was so amiable today, he was still very happy.

Little Naruto foolishly joined in and praised: "Uncle Fugaku is so awesome."

Then I saw the serious-looking middle-aged cat quietly raising its short fried tail behind it, wagging gently back and forth.

Only Uchiha Sasuke was still sitting alone on the wooden corridor outside the house until the sunset...

"Get ready to wash your hands and eat~" Uchiha Mikoto's voice came from the kitchen.

"Okay, it's time to eat." Uchiha Fugaku came to his senses immediately, closed the picture album in his hand, and said to the three little ghosts around him who were still unfinished, "Children should listen to adults and wash their hands."
