Qianju Tobijian had just finished speaking, and actually felt a little regretful, and secretly despised himself: Look, what stupid things are you saying? How could she be afraid of the cold, how could she let you carry it.

As expected, after the girl was stunned for a moment, she chose to refuse: "No, Tobirama-sama. I'm not cold, and the soles of my shoes won't slip, no problem." Thumb.

Senshou Tobirama looked at the girl's smiling expression and felt relieved. She nodded and said nothing more - even though she was rejected, she really didn't notice anything. At this time, Hoshi... no, this child

His slowness is actually an advantage.

The two of them held an umbrella together and walked toward the Hokage Tower in the snowy sky.

And this umbrella, unconsciously, tilted more towards the direction of the girl.

Jiuwei glanced sideways at a certain white-haired creature and thought: That's quite considerate...

Then he very consciously crawled onto her neck and lay down. From a distance, it looked like a girl was wearing a white and orange fur collar.

Walking, walking, she smiled and stretched out her hand to catch a snowflake falling from the sky. After watching it melt in the palm of her hand, she turned her head and said with a little worry: "Master Tobirama, the snow is so heavy, it really doesn't matter.

Problem?"

"Don't worry." Qianju Tojian replied with a smile, "I have already made all arrangements in the village in advance. Even if it continues for three days, it will not affect the daily life of the villagers."

"What about the Fire Country? Where are the other countries?" she asked subconsciously.

After Senju Tobirama was stunned for a moment, he answered honestly: "The affairs of the Fire Country are still responsible for the daimyo and officials from various places. As for the ninja villages in other countries, the same is naturally true." The ninja world is so big, and Konoha's hands are so big.

How can it reach that far?

original……

Maybe it's possible.

In fact, when the village was first built, the man's proposal was not entirely wrong.

This is indeed the case in terms of rational judgment, but he must and can only stand on his elder brother's side and clearly support all his decisions.

He cannot tolerate the "provocation" of his eldest brother's absolute authority.

Moreover, at that time, the vast majority of villagers did not want another war.

"That's it..." She smiled and said sincerely, "I hope everyone will be okay."

Senju Tobirama thought: It's impossible. People would freeze to death in ordinary winters, let alone such a cold winter. All he can do at the moment is to ensure that this kind of thing will never happen in this village. As for people outside Konoha

Elsewhere…

At least for now, they are out of reach.

However, he couldn't bear to tell her what she would know sooner or later at this moment, so he only said the reality in front of him: "Don't worry, there is an orphanage in the village, which will specially take care of those who have no father, no mother, no relatives or

Orphans supported by the clan can go to ninja schools for free when they reach an age; disabled ninjas and elderly people who have no one to take care of them also have special places to support them, paid for by Konoha's finance..." After talking a lot, he concluded

, "In short, there are no vagrants or beggars in Konoha today. Even the people with the worst life at least have enough food and clothing. Therefore, it is not a problem to spend this winter in good health."

"Yeah." The girl nodded as she listened, then showed a look full of trust and admiration and said, "Hashirama-sama and Tobirama-sama, they are so amazing~"

"……"cough!

It wasn't a big deal at first, but after being praised like this, I suddenly felt at ease, and my feet felt like they were stepping on clouds when they stepped on the ground.

Qianju Tobirama once again despised himself: He really failed to live up to expectations.

Then he added: "If the heavy snow continues, the village will consider distributing cold-repelling medicinal soup for free on many streets."

"I hope it's best not." The girl clasped her hands against her chest and said seriously, "But if the situation is bound to be like this, then, Tobirama-sama, please let me go to other places to help."

"...It's very cold." Senju Tobirama said subconsciously, and there is an old saying - knowing that she is a ninja who is not afraid of the cold, even if she stays outside for a long time in this weather, it will not be a problem. However, as long as she thinks of her standing for a long time,

Giving medicine to her on a snowy cold street, he thought she might get frozen.

"But the villagers who queue up to receive the medicinal soup are even colder, right?" She showed a small smile, "So, please let me help!"

"...If you can open it." Qianju Toijian didn't finish his sentence.

"Yeah!" The girl nodded, rubbed her hands, and asked sideways, "Tobirama-sama, are your hands cold? Can I hold the umbrella instead?"

"No need." Senshou Tobirama said, but he couldn't help but stretched out his other hand and gently pressed her hands down. "Don't show your hands when it's cold. Keep hiding them under your clothes."

Inside." When he asked someone to make clothes for her, he specifically requested that the sleeves be slightly longer so that they would not affect her daily movements. However, he always felt that... for the little girl, when her hands naturally dropped, there was a length hidden in the sleeves.

, really cute.

At that time, the tailor was a little surprised and confirmed with him several times before he was willing to do it.

Of course, he would not tell anyone about this.

The tailor didn't dare to talk nonsense, after all, he and his descendants still had to make a living in Konoha.

"Hey hey hey..." The girl showed an obedient smile, but in the end she raised her hand unobediently and pushed the umbrella that was tilted infinitely towards her body, "Tobirama-sama, if you continue like this,

There will be snow on your left shoulder."

"..."

There was no more words to say along the way.

Soon after, the two arrived near the Hokage Building.

Qianju Tobijian glanced at the girl and said in a deep voice: "Today, honestly come in with me through the front entrance."

"... Ben, I didn't plan to climb out of the window." The latter looked away with a slight guilty conscience - not to mention, once he got used to climbing, he almost... raised his hand and pulled the little fox around his neck.

Pull it down and hold it in your arms.

Senju Tobirama didn't expose someone's little lie, he just led her past the door and walked inside.

"Good day, Tobirama-sama."

"Good day, Lord Hoshi."

Facing the gatekeeper's greetings, the two responded one after another.

"Good day."

"Good day, thank you for your hard work."

Not long after, the two arrived at the Hokage's office.

After Senju Tobirama entered, he started making tea (although this kind of thing could be done by his subordinates, but he always felt that the tea they brewed was still somewhat inferior to what he brewed himself, so when time was not tight,

Under the circumstances, he is more willing to do this kind of thing with his own hands) and said: "Since eldest brother is not here, how about you sit in his place today?"

Having said that, he looked at the momentarily confused girl with interest and a bit of "evil-mindedness", wanting to see what kind of reaction she would make -

After being stunned for a moment, the girl shook her head decisively: "No, let's forget it. Well, if it's inconvenient to put another table in, then, Mr. Tobirama, can I borrow a corner of your table?"

"Why?"

"Because..." The girl standing by the table let go of her hand and allowed Kyuubi to jump around the room freely. Then she raised her hand and gently stroked the big wooden table that belonged to the Hokage, because it was carefully tidied and cleaned every day.

Because of it, it was always kept neat and clean. She said softly, "This is Lord Hashirama's place. I think it must have been waiting for the return of its master every day."

"..." Qianju Tobijian thought, what a coincidence, I thought the same way.

Therefore, sometimes no matter how many things are piled up on the table, he never wants to "get over the edge" at all. That is the position of the eldest brother, and the eldest brother will always come back.

His eyes couldn't help but soften a lot: This is indeed a very, very, very, very good girl... no, child.

But in fact, it’s not about exchanging heart for heart and emotion for emotion.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that if you just want to use this girl as a "weapon", then it is the easiest way to firmly control her and limit her contact with others. She is so kind and innocent, so you can trick her into taking advantage of her.

Her emotions forced her to make a vow... It was really not that difficult. As the head of a large family, both Senju Hashirama and Senju Tobirama were no strangers to this matter.

However, they didn't do this.

They seriously regarded her as a member of the family, accompanying her, teaching her and nurturing her... until she grew into a towering tree that could support the village. During this period, their only selfishness was probably...

I hope she can have the deepest relationship with her family.

However, given that Senju Hashirama is about to pass away and cannot continue to protect his family, this level of selfishness is completely understandable, right?

Therefore, Senshou Tobirama cleared a corner of his table for the girl, and placed a cup of hot tea at the right temperature in her hand.

Not long after.

There was a knock on the office door.

"Come in." Qian Shu Feijian said in a deep voice.

The door was opened, and about a dozen department heads walked in one after another. The moment they saw the girl, they couldn't help but froze. It wasn't that they had never seen her before, but usually Mr. Hashirama was also there. They understood.

——Oh, I came with Mr. Hashirama. But today?

There are a few people who can achieve this position who are not sharp, so almost immediately, they felt that something was different, but they did not dare to say or ask, they just froze for a moment and continued with today's reporting work.

.

"Master Tobirama, this is this month's financial report."

"Sir Tobirama, this is the work schedule of the Construction Department for next month."

"Master Tobirama, this is..."
