Ninja Ice House

It snowed heavily for half a day, thickening the unmelted snow by a few inches, then getting smaller, and falling intermittently until evening.

Having had a good time outside, Xiao Hiiragi and the others acted like leading elder sisters, leading their younger siblings to play.

Of course, she didn't know yet that the two youngest among them, in terms of seniority, were her cousin and uncle.

After sending Qianxia and Yihui home, the three sisters ran home with difficulty stepping on the knee-deep snow. With the help of the maid who had been waiting for a long time at the door, they cleaned off the snowflakes on their bodies, took off their coats, and put on indoor shoes. Just walked into the warm inner hall.

The elder sister who went home first, and the parents who had been waiting for a long time, were preparing to eat. At this time, even the grandparents who didn't come over often were there.

The grandfather Gushan Zhengcheng, who was cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and the loving grandmother Princess Liuli stood up to greet her, and looked at the little granddaughter who was sweating profusely on her forehead.

"It's so hot outside and the weather is cold. I don't think so. When I come in, I'm covered in sweat. Be careful not to get sick. You have to be careful."

"Alright! We ran a long way today, and I won in the end. Many people have seen it."

"Yes, yes, yes! You will be a big kid who is about to go to school soon, so you must pay attention to restraining your mind."

"Ok!"

Grandmother's nagging, grandfather's concern, children of this age may not be able to listen to it, but they understand the sincere concern.

"What's for dinner today? I can smell the prawns and the sauce..."

"Your nose was born for eating!"

Gu Shan Bu Shui wiped the bridge of Xiao Hiiragi's nose with a wet towel, lifted her up, put her on the seat and sat down, and then saw the hard dishes on the table.

"Hey, why are there so many delicious foods today?"

There is definitely no shortage of fish, eggs, and milk. Exquisite soup pots, chopped beef with sauce, brewed milk powder for children, etc. are all available.

It stands to reason that with the wealth of the Gushan family, fish brain tofu, eggplant and other dishes can be eaten at a meal, and it is not a problem even as a snack.

In fact, this stuff may not be so delicious that it makes people dream about it, but it is expensive, the materials are hard to find, the workmanship is complicated, and every process is extremely elegant.

At the level of the Gushan family, there is no need to be different to show superiority, especially family banquets, which are all home-cooked dishes.

Of course, this "homely routine" is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

There is no luxury like killing more than 100 precious seabass to get the ingredients for one dish. The control of taste, nutrition and health is also extremely strict.

Xiao Hiiragi usually likes to eat secretly, and the intake of nutrients and calories is also restricted for dinner, otherwise, she will really eat like a chubby girl.

Today's dinner actually relaxed the restrictions and allowed her to open up to eat.

"In a few days, you are going to go to school. You are far away in Muye Village. It is not as comfortable as at home. Don't play your temper."

"Miss temper, what is that?"

Xiaohiira's unclear question made Hongye couldn't help but smile. He tied a napkin for the little guy and slowly answered for Gusugi:

"It's about getting along well with friends, not just thinking about your own happiness, being too arbitrary, but also considering other people's ideas."

"Got it, I will."

Hiiragi, who answered casually, raised her chopsticks and started to move.

Unlike Xianglin who had a relatively difficult life for a few years when she was a child, Xiao Hiiragi, Xiao Jing, and Xiao Si don't know the sufferings of the people at all. The world they live in every day is arranged by the Gushan family. It is said that they are flowers in the greenhouse. It's not enough to describe how pampered they are.

Of course, this does not mean that they have bad character, but that they are out of touch with the general public and do not know what the world is really like.

It is no exaggeration to say that they are innocent children who can say "why not eat minced meat" as a matter of course, so sending them to Muye Village is not a whim, but a choice after careful consideration .

While several children were eating lively, the mother, Princess Liuli, whispered in her son's ear:

"Inaba country, the people affected by the disaster have been transferred to the resettlement site, but daimyo's side is a bit troublesome, and there is a little shortage of manpower. Even the Konoha ninjas are going to battle, and they work overtime at the New Year's Eve. It's a bit hard to take care of."

"Don't worry, I have considered sending out manpower for support. I'm just waiting for the right time..."

"Where's the support?"

"There is still power left over at Star Ninja Village."

"The Land of Bears? The freezing rain and floods over there are also serious, so they can't take care of themselves..."

"Don't worry, mother, those star ninjas, let them fight and kill, may not be as good as Konoha ninjas. This kind of support mission close to the grassroots may not be worse than other ninja villages. Moreover, I have a secret weapon..."

"It's good to be sure. Your uncle has urged you several times, and the reserves and disaster preparedness reserves have been used. If it continues to deteriorate like this, I'm afraid there will be big trouble."

"The climate is abnormal. I'm afraid it won't end like this. We must prepare for the worst. Moreover, this winter is so abnormal that it is inevitable that there will be continuous drought in spring and summer, and even locust plagues will arise again. We must prepare early."

"Is it that serious?"

"Be prepared! After the spring is warm and the flowers bloom, I will intensify efforts to build water conservancy, reorganize the farm, and increase food production..."

"Do you really want to prepare for the famine?"

"It's the least bad choice. Our family has made so much money. It doesn't matter if we take a break for a year or two and earn a little less. But if there are natural and man-made disasters, we can solve the big problem."

"It also makes sense! For our Gushan family, controlling risks is more important than continuing to grab benefits. You can do it with confidence, and I will also remind you, Uncle Qingfu. Although he wants to be a promising name, in fact, his nature is still He is a little weak, with soft ears, I have to remind him not to be persuaded by some inexplicable people and take unnecessary risks."

"It's good for mother to make up her mind, what's going on with Ryoshige?"

"That bastard has finally grown up and knows how to share the worries of his parents."

In the first half of this year, my little cousin finally agreed to start a family. At the beginning of this year, he met a certain noble girl through a friendship. Soon after, he got married. At the end of March, there was good news that he was going to be a father.

The due date is just a few days away, and it's not too far away. When that time comes, I'm afraid I have to go to Miyagi to see it.

It seems that that guy listened to the private persuasion back then.

Power and obligation are relative. As the heir of a daimyo, if he can't even give birth to an orthodox heir, who will manage other inexplicable demands?

"It's a pity, Xianglin and Xiaoyi, they can't catch up with their newborn little cousin."

"Maybe it's my cousin!"

"In our family, the past few generations are a bit yin and yang, obviously there are many daughters and very few sons. Look at you, four daughters, Liangzhong's side, it should be the son's turn."

"In a few days, I'll send them to Konoha Village. After registering, I'll meet you in Miyagi. You and your father can go there first."

"Let's go see the three little guys enroll together, too!"

"As you wish!"

Gu Shan Bu Shui looked back at Xiao Hiiragi who was immersed in cooking, as well as Xiao Jing and Xiao Si who also had greasy mouths, and smiled knowingly.

"Perhaps, they are eager to go to Muye Village as a family. I'm afraid they think they are going on a trip like before."

Talking and laughing, after dinner, Hongye and Xianglin took the children for a walk to digest food, while mother Princess Liuli and father Gushan Zhengcheng also went to their own business.

Gushan Bushui came to the side hall and received the representatives of Kagenosato who had been waiting for a long time.

"Get up, Chai Zhou, and these children, is that all?"

Kusanagi Shibashu, who has been in charge of secret security, who is in touch with the family in Kagenori, stood up, followed by a dozen or so children around five or six years old, who also stood up one after another.Six women and six men, among them, three women are personal maids and shadow dancers specially prepared by Kagenori for Xiao Hiiragi, Xiao Jing and Xiao Si, to protect the safety of the master, and to act as stand-ins to block the knife at critical moments.

The remaining three women and six men are all related households recommended by the retainers. After a series of selections, the strength, loyalty and background are impeccable, and they will be sent to Gu Shan Bu Shui.

"It's all here, young master, and they are all rare talents."

"According to the usual practice, arrange for them to meet the children!"

There are practical reasons for Xianglin not going through this step. Who knew that Hongye and Xianglin's mother and daughter, who were not favored, could really stand up and call the shots?

Not to mention burning a cold stove, there is no chance of getting close. When she was the right age, Xianglin went to Muye Village to study. There are several family members who are willing to travel thousands of miles to go to Muye with their illegitimate daughters who don’t know if they have a future. Village suffers?

Things are different now. Even if Gushan Bushui's three little daughters do not become heads of the family, they still have a large number of properties that they can inherit, such as the Country of Whirlpool and Whirlpool Village. After all, it is a large country. If it really develops, not bad.

The country of the sea, which is isolated overseas, is actually a good place. It can fully develop seafood, strengthen maritime transportation, and develop tourism resources.

There is even the legendary mermaid clan, Dragon Palace City, which is the private property of Gu Shan Bu Shui, and he can give it to anyone he wants.

A prince of the ocean that is not inferior to the strength of Da Nin Village is more popular than many small countries.

Now, it is no longer a question of whether to burn a cold stove, but a question of whether to grab a place.

Asking Kusanagi to step aside, Gushan Bushui looked at them, and these children who were looking forward to and a little apprehensive, warned slowly.

"This is the first time I've seen you, I don't know which family you are from, I don't know your names, and I'm not even interested in knowing. Time will prove your loyalty and ability, don't worry. I hope that in the future, I will learn from my daughter I heard your names from their mouths, praised your abilities, and regarded you as friends."

After a pause, Gu Shan Bu Shui continued to warn:

"Go to Muye Village. It is a completely different place from the family. There are rewards, unusual emotions, and dangers. These are the tests you need to go through. I hope that after a few years, you can still show up. In front of me."

After waving his hand and asking Kusanagi Shibune to leave with the children, Kosugi Fusui breathed a sigh of relief.

"Humans are social animals. Dealing with interpersonal relationships, especially arranging children's social interaction and creating a good environment for growth, is more troublesome than planting a sacred tree and dealing with Hokage."

"Because I care, I care about it, so I can't let it go. This is the necessity of being a parent. Back then..."

As Otsuki Kaguya said, he seemed to think of the two brothers Otsuki Yuromo and Otsuki Hamura again.

For the two twin sons, Otsutsuki Kaguya was really devoted and deeply affectionate. As a result, they were defeated and sealed by them, which is really painful.

"Do you still hate the Sage of the Six Paths?"

"It doesn't matter whether you hate it or not. In essence, I just choose to be different from them. Moreover, to be honest, a large part of the ninja humans have my blood, but do I need to treat them as descendants? ?”

Otsutsuki Kaguya replied casually,

"Only Yumura and Yuyi, as well as their Chakra reincarnated descendants, are the real descendants. The others... are too far away."

Otsutsuki Kaguya always speaks bluntly when this topic is brought up, but her feelings for her two biological sons are true.

Gu Shan Bu Shui didn't want to entangle too much on this issue, but looked towards the distant sky.

"The other pair of Sharingan is very close. That guy, does he have the intention to wipe out Sanwei, Liuwei and Mist Ninja? I don't care how they want to kill them, as long as they don't make trouble in my territory. gone."

The ancient Shanbu water releases perception, and with the help of the dense enchantment around it, can see all the chakra fluctuations one by one,

“Everyone thought they would be the fishermen who benefited, but who was the snipe and the clam that competed?”

If Nagato hadn't been present in person, it would obviously not be enough to rely on the power of Jue and Uchiha Obito.

"Which side are you going to help?"

"I don't know! This is my home, and there are many unexpected guests, but none of them greeted me, nor did they ask me for help, did they not put the Gushan family down?"

"So, do you want to emphasize your presence and tell them not to cause trouble?"

"Forget it, it's not necessary..."

Gu Shan Bu Shui smiled and rejected the proposal.

"Strictly speaking, the Gushan family has its own high-end combat power. Except for me who is very strong, there are not many other masters who can really meet the S-level standard! If it is decent to rely on personal force, if it is not supported by other masters, in fact It’s also quite hypocritical, I can’t just be a bodyguard or a thug all day long! Blocking Nagato is the limit, we don’t cause trouble, but we are not afraid of trouble, just teach a little lesson, but there is no need to really have a grudge..."

The Gushan family does not control tailed beasts, and there is no irreconcilable conflict with the "Akatsuki" organization, and it is not hostile to the five great ninja villages.

Just when Gushan Shaodu was still thinking about how to drive these uninvited guys outside to fight, Momochi Zabuza and Ganshi Kisame, who were like frightened birds, were taken aback by Lin Yuyuli's appearance. After a big jump, he immediately hired a speedboat at a high price, preparing to escape to the northeast sea.
