Konoha: My Character Card

Chapter 68 Uchiha Mikoto, Invitation

"Spring, spring!"

Sanshui heard someone calling Izumi Uchiha outside the house, and his first reaction was to go upstairs to wake up the girl who was sleeping on the bed.

But he hadn't taken a few steps when he heard the sound of the door lock opening.

crunch.

The door of Quan's house was opened, and Sanshui met the visitor's eyes, which was very embarrassing.

"who are you?"

Uchiha Mikoto was surprised at first, then she frowned and asked sternly.

"Where's the spring?"

"Auntie, Quan is still sleeping upstairs, I'll go and wake her up."

Sanshui lowered his head slightly, then hurried up the stairs.

"stop!"

Uchiha Mikoto took off her shoes and walked in front of Sanshui.

"Why are you at Quan's house?"

"Yesterday, I practiced with Quan, and she applied ointment to me, and then I moved in."

Sanshui explained creakingly, because he himself felt a little embarrassed.

How did you live in it without knowing it?

"Really?"

Uchiha Mikoto stared at Sanshui suspiciously, she had never seen this child before, could it be Izumi's friend?
"Really! Absolutely!"

Sanshui patted his chest and promised.

"Then take me to see the spring."

"okay!"

Sanshui ran up the stairs patteringly as if he had been pardoned.

"Quan, someone is looking for you."

Sanshui gently awakened Quan in his sleep.

"Well, who is it?"

Quan stared at Sanshui sleepily, and asked naturally.

Sanshui was not at all vigilant about breaking into the room without saying hello.

"I don't know anyone in your clan."

Sanshui pointed to the door, and Uchiha Mikoto was looking at the two of them with a scrutinizing gaze.

"Ah! Aunt Mikoto!"

Quan glanced at the person coming from the corner of his eye, and suddenly woke up, completely lost the naturalness and relaxation just now, but quickly started looking for clothes to put on, and tidying his messy hair.

"Then, I'll go out first."

Sanshui felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere, so he slipped away.

Uchiha Mikoto didn't stop her either, and after Izumi finished tidying up her clothes, she walked into the room.

"Aunt Meiqin, why are you here?"

"Quan, your parents asked me to take care of you during this time. I just came back from outside yesterday. I thought it would be inconvenient for you to live alone, so I came to take a look."

Uchiha Mikoto hesitated for a moment, and then asked: "Why don't you come and stay with us for a while, so that I can take care of you conveniently."

Quan was stunned for half a second, then quickly waved his hands.

"No need, Aunt Mikoto, I can take care of myself."

Looking at Izumi who clearly refused, Uchiha Mikoto thought it was true.

Seeing Quan's lack of defense against the boy just now, she knew that Quan would refuse.

However, it is still necessary to ask clearly.

"Quan, who was that boy just now?"

Uchiha Mikoto's tone was gentle, without any persecution or questioning, like a big sister next door, gradually opening Uchiha Izumi's chatterbox.

"He, his name is Sanshui, he is my good friend."

The two upstairs were chatting, while Sanshui downstairs sat quietly on the sofa.

Staying in someone else's house is really easy to cause trouble, it's still sloppy!
If I remember correctly, the person just now should be Uchiha Fugaku's wife, Uchiha Mikoto.

Now the Uchiha clan leads the clan to fight, and there are not many people left in the clan.

Except for the necessary guards, they are ordinary people who don't know Chakra.

The elderly and children also stay in the clan, as do the sick and injured.

Uchiha Mikoto, as the wife of the patriarch, is counted as half the master and stays in the clan to deal with some emergencies.

From today's coincidence, it can be seen that Quan and Mikoto's family knew each other before.

When they finish talking, I'll take my leave.

Sanshui thought so in his heart.

It's still comfortable in your own cabin.

After about half an hour.

Mikoto and Izumi walked down the stairs.

Sanshui withdrew from the state of practicing Chakra and got up to greet him.

"Sanshui, I was sorry before."

Mikoto said with a smile, apologizing for the harsh tone at first.

But at first she didn't know that Sanshui was Quan's "good friend", so it was natural to be strict.

"No, no, I didn't explain clearly."

Sanshui responded with a smile.

"By the way, Sanshui, are you free at noon today? Would you like to come to our house for a meal? My son is Itachi. I heard from Quan that you know each other."

"So you are Itachi's mother."

Sanshui "suddenly realized".

"Well, of course I'm free, thank you for your invitation."

Seeing Quan gesturing behind Miqin to go together, Sanshui didn't want to agree, so he could only agree.

"Okay, I'll go back and prepare the dishes, just come over after you and Quan."

Miqin smiled and waved to the two, put on her shoes and left.

At noon, Sanshui and Izumi went together to Uchiha Mikoto's house.

Because of the start of the war, most of the Uchiha clan's doors are closed, and few people move around.

It's not that I don't want to go, but that no one is going.

Looking at the much deserted clan land, Quan couldn't help shrinking a little.

Normally, I don’t want to think about it, but when I think of my parents participating in the war outside, Quan feels fear and fear.

This is also the reason why she very much hoped that Sanshui would stay with her yesterday, and even used a little trick for this.

Sanshui felt something in his heart, and held Quan's little hand.

"Don't think too much, they will return safely."

Quan didn't struggle, let Sanshui hold his hand tightly, and nodded slightly.

She is lucky, because even in such a difficult time, she has someone to rely on.

Staying by Sanshui's side gave me an inexplicable sense of security, as if being guarded by someone.

Sanshui and Quan came to the front yard and saw Itachi sitting on the wooden steps looking up at the sky alone.

It's rare that I didn't hug my brother.

Sanshui thought to himself.

"Itachi, we meet again."

Sanshui's voice broke Itachi's contemplation.

"Well, we meet again, Sanshui, Quan."

Itachi responded politely.

"Come on, I'll take you in."

Itachi's house is very big, and it is difficult for people who are not familiar with it to find the living room.

After walking through several wooden sliding doors, Itachi took Sanshui and Quan into his living room.

Uchiha Mikoto has already cooked a table full of dishes, but she is still busy in the kitchen.

Itachi poured two cups of tea for the two, and then carried his younger brother Sasuke out of the room.

"Sasuke, we have guests at home."

Itachi looked at his younger brother in his arms and smiled naturally.

"Sasuke seems to have grown up a bit."

Seeing the little baby, Quan said with a smile.

"Well, it's three centimeters longer."

As soon as he talked about his younger brother, Itachi became interested in talking, and chatted with the two of them.

Sanshui looked at Sasuke in Itachi's arms and sighed in his heart.

Is this the second pillar?
It was so cute when I was a child.

It was tightly wrapped up.

He tried to hug Sasuke with his hands for a while, but within a few seconds, little Sasuke wrinkled his face, as if he was about to cry.

Itachi quickly hugged Sasuke back, comforting his younger brother who was about to cry.

Seeing that Sanshui was also disgusted by Sasuke, Izumi covered his mouth and laughed.

"You brothers have such a good relationship."

Sanshui said helplessly.
