[Hokage] Summer Festival

Marriage is such a matter, whether it is big or small.There are only three members of Kato's family, the brothers and sisters of Ajuan and Shinichi's family, and the Hatake family has only Sakumo Hatake alone. marriage.

Sakumo Hatake asked me for my opinion, and I said that we don't even want to hold a wedding banquet, and that the whole family should have a meal together.There is still war outside. Maybe one moment we are still on the battlefield, and the next moment we return to the village to take off our bloody clothes to participate in the wedding banquet. How can we be in the mood.

Hatake Sakumo smiled and said:

"It's so simple, will Lord Duan blame me?"

I also laugh:

"Can't you beat him?"

Ah Duan came out from the back room, looked at me and Hatake Sakumo, then curled the corners of his mouth and said:

"You two, hide in the backyard and speak ill of me."

Immediately, the smile subsided, and he put his arms around my shoulders, but said to Hatake Sakumo word for word:

"Mr. Shuo Mao, I will leave my only sister to you."

Hatake Sakumo glanced at me, then nodded to Duan:

"do not worry."

The voice is soft and firm, like a promise.I suddenly remembered the phrase "I am willing" when the newlyweds swore an oath before God, and I couldn't help feeling warm in my heart.

Aduan talked to us for a while and then went back to the back room. Only then did I remember to ask Sakumo Hatake:

"If we don't hold a wedding, will it hurt your face as a super genius?"

He stared at me helplessly, and smiled:

"You like to run on me more and more."

Then he took my hand and walked slowly to the pond to watch the carp. After a while, he said:

"Besides, the face of a ninja is not supported by a grand wedding."

I smiled at him:

"What do you rely on to support it?"

But as soon as he opened his mouth, I said first:

"I see, rely on guarding the village and companions, right?"

What a corny saying.

It may be that my tone was a little frivolous, he stared at me with his head down, hesitated to speak, and finally said as if considering:

"Do you think ninja experience is more important?"

I thought of the iron laws that were cold and unreasonable, so I couldn't help pursing my lips, let go of his hand, stepped back a few steps away from him, looked directly at his eyes that were not smiling and gentle at the moment, and said softly:

"No, I think you're right."

He seemed to be relieved, his brows relaxed, he came over and embraced me, and said in a low voice:

"Thank you."

I wrapped my arms around his strong waist and said with a smile:

"What's there to thank for that?"

The man suddenly fell silent. After waiting for a long time, I couldn't help poking my head out of his arms to look at the expression on his face. I saw that his eyes were complicated and difficult to understand, and his arm was tightly wrapped around me.

"Thank you for having the same beliefs as I do," he said.

Only then did I suddenly realize that those who fear him do not necessarily agree with everything about him.

The weather was unbelievably sunny that day, and we ate our last meal as "Natsuko Kato" at Kato House.Apart from Hatake Sakumo, Hatake, Shinichi’s family, and even Tsunade, the seven of us gathered around a table, and although there were no delicacies, they talked and laughed happily.

I saw Ah Duan wearing a necklace with a royal blue pendant around his neck. If I remember correctly, Naoki once wore this necklace and clamored to become Hokage.

Ah Duan has always been very fond of children, coaxing his niece Xiao Jingyin to giggle non-stop, waving her little hands in her mother's arms to be hugged by her uncle.Tsunade looked closely at her, and Shizune took advantage of the situation to touch her, slobbering her face and smiling happily.

Ah Duan said to his girlfriend:

"The kid likes you."

Tsunade said while wiping the water marks on his face:

"Then be my student from now on."

"Even the students who are more than ten years later have been booked, and your trip today is really worthwhile." Hatake Sakumo said.

Shinichi hugged his naughty daughter back, turned his gaze from the people around him, and finally settled on Sakumo Hatake's face, and said with a funny expression:

"This place is full of people from the Kato family, but you look like a husband-in-law."

When he said, "This place is all from the Kato family," Tsunade's beautiful face blushed almost imperceptibly.

Ah Duan choked on the drink all of a sudden, coughed a few times, recovered his breath and said with a smile:

"It's kind of like that."

Sakumo Hatake's booth:

"That can't be done. I'm the only one left in the Hatake family. If I become extinct, I'll be a sinner forever."

It is said that although there are few descendants of the Hatake family, all of them are elites selected from thousands of miles.

How can I bear the crime of making this elite family unprecedented.

Before I left, I stood at the door of Xia Zi's bedroom and looked around the room where I had lived for more than four years. Somehow, I felt a sense of sadness.

I still remember seeing golden fields and blue, cloudless skies from my bedroom window when I first arrived.But now, the sky outside the window is still as blue as a big mirror, but the field is white.

It just snowed yesterday.Konoha's first snow in 34 years.

It is said that the auspicious snow heralds a good year, and I hope that the harvest in the coming year will not only be crops, but peace as well.

I don't know if the war will end in the coming year.

His shoulders were grabbed from behind, before he could turn his head, he heard Ah Duan's voice asking with a smile:

"Isn't it reluctant?"

I looked up at his face, which was about six or seven points similar to Xia Zi's, and I didn't speak, just nodded.

I'm really not willing to part with it - this is my only shelter when I encountered absurd changes back then.

"This will always be your home, you can come back anytime."

A Duan also seemed a little sad, but he still had a smile on his face, as if he had let go of a major matter in his heart, and then changed the subject, and said in a relaxed tone:

"You have to come back often to visit my brother."

Even I was gone, he was the only one left in this big house.

I am the only daughter in my family, and I have never enjoyed the love and care of siblings until I met Ah Duan.

Anyway, I have great respect for this good brother.

Clothes and commonly used items have long been moved to Hatake's house. As for the dowry, there are some gold and silver jewelry left by Xia Zi's mother.But Hatake Sakumo was not short of money, so of course he would not plan on his wife's natal dowry.

I only knew that he used to be a young master when he was young, but when it was time to discuss marriage, he handed over the passbook and the key to the safe at home. At first glance, I couldn’t even hide my surprise—this guy is, as expected, a rich people.

I shook the key of the safe at him and said:

"Am I catching a rich man?"

He hugged me and smiled.

After leaving Kato's house, we walked back to Hatake's house together.He held my hand and suddenly called out:

"Xia Zi."

I look up at him.

Slowly and clearly he cried again:

"Natsuko Hatake."

I laughed out loud with a "huh" and nodded heavily in response:

"Yes."

Then he scratched his silver hair embarrassingly, like a child who has done something embarrassing, but his brows and eyes were smiling.

I suddenly felt that this man would be a very good husband.

The wooden door in the front yard of Hatake's house was ajar. I opened the door and went in. Just as I was about to go to the main house, Sakumo Hatake suddenly held my shoulder and said:

"Come on, this way."

I didn't know why for a while, so I was dragged by him to walk around the main house and walk to the backyard.The rockery in the backyard pond is also covered with a layer of crystal clear snow.The sky was clear and clear, but there was not a ray of sunshine.

When he stopped, I took advantage of the opportunity to tidy up the loose scarf that the owner didn't pay attention to.

He said, "Look."

I followed his line of sight, and saw a large area of ​​short green plants planted in the backyard, and I couldn't identify what species they were for a while.But I remember that a few days ago, this was the habitat of chrysanthemums and crabapple flowers.

I don't know how much work and energy it will take to transplant such a large area of ​​plants in winter, not to mention it snowed yesterday.

"It's your wedding present."

He leaned down and kissed the back of my hand lightly.

"Happy wedding."

I couldn't help but smile.

"You too."

"Happy wedding."

When I got closer, I realized that it was a gardenia. I was slightly surprised and said:

"So you like gardenias?"

He asked back:

"Aren't you the favorite?"

And said:

"In summer, the yard will be full of white gardenias."

"It must be as beautiful as the stars in the sky."

After what he said, I can't help looking forward to the arrival of summer.

What a beautiful scene it will be.

Gardenia Rubiaceae - Eternal love, and a lifetime of waiting.

The moonlight at night is like silver yarn, because it is winter, the frogs in the field are hibernating, and the night insects are silent.On the outskirts of Hatake's house, from nightfall, the surrounding area tends to be quiet.

Looking out from the window of the master bedroom, the vast sky and the galaxy are thousands of miles away.

In fact, not only in summer, but also in winter, there are stars all over the sky.

Like tonight, the stars are shining brightly, twinkling and twinkling, so beautiful.

"The last time we saw such a beautiful starry sky together was more than three years ago."

I leaned on Hatake Sakumo's shoulder and said.

"Yeah, on the battlefield against sand ninja." He replied.

"How time flies."

He reached out and put me in his arms and leaned against his chest, his voice was particularly alluring in the quiet night:

"Then let's grow old together."

I curled up into a ball and lay in his arms, raised my eyes to see his smooth chin bathed in silver light, then lowered my eyes and said nothing.

grow old together.

Just thinking about it can't suppress the longing and anticipation - I want to spend my whole life with this man.

But ah, easier said than done.

The night was getting darker, I couldn't fall asleep, and neither did the man beside me, but neither of them spoke.

The thumb rubbed the ring on the ring finger, it was cool, but it was not as cool as people's hearts.

I kissed that hideous centipede-like scar on his back, and for some reason, my heart slowly warmed up, and other troublesome things seemed to be less important.

I think, at least for this moment, we are truly spending together.
