Red sand dust

If it wasn't for Grandfather and Chen's reminder, Daimaru would have almost forgotten that the two of them had communicated on this topic.

The ninja world is constantly at war, and ninjas are also a very dangerous profession, and the average life expectancy is not high.

Many ninjas get married and have children in their early twenties.

If you fail to find your destiny's other half in your best years, it will probably be difficult in the future.

It is actually normal for young people who are growing up to start being urged to get married by their elders.

"You still remember these little things..."

"Little things?"

Grandpa Hechen raised his voice and said,

"Let you make your own decision, not let you push back and forth! I'm still waiting to see my great-grandson..."

"Then you have to take care of yourself and don't get too angry or hurt yourself..."

Snapped……

Daimaru's perfunctory words made the already impatient grandfather slap the table angrily.

"My health is very good. If you don't cause trouble and I worry less, I can at least live to be a hundred years old..."

Daimaru shrank his head and replied with some guilt:

"Please keep your voice down, don't disturb other guests..."

Although it is a private room, the sound insulation is not very good. No, the waiter waiting outside heard the noise and couldn't help but poke his head in.

Grandfather Hechen snorted coldly, realizing that he was too out of character, and turned away to sulk.

Mother Wu Ye, who seems to have long been accustomed to quarrels between grandparents and grandchildren when they meet, advised:

"Today is a happy day, so don't make trouble..."

Daimaru, who rarely went home once, accidentally became a jounin. Now he can barely be regarded as a respectable big shot. In public, it is not good for others to see his haggard appearance after being scolded by his grandfather.

Grandfather He Chen muttered angrily:

"What's wrong with the Jonin? Even if this bastard becomes the Kazekage, he's still my grandson, so I can continue to scold him..."

Daimaru curled his lips and said nothing more.

Grandfather and Chen's idea of ​​teaching Feng Ying a lesson probably won't work. There is still hope of teaching Feng Ying a lesson to his brother-in-law.

Mother Wu Ye was a little helpless and habitually served Daimaru with vegetables, and then helped her grandfather Hechen pour wine to lighten the atmosphere.

When Daimaru is obviously not around, he always looks forward to his grandson coming back to see him often. Family gatherings are always full of stumbling blocks.

Daimaru's father is a civilian ninja, his mother has a gentle personality, and his grandfather is old and has an awkward temper, but he is not easy to fight bravely.

I don’t know how such a family environment allowed Daimaru to develop such a character.

"The bad boy who often caused trouble and was often escorted to other people's homes by me to apologize has now become a big shot in the village..."

The food at "Sunayama E" is quite good. The family enjoyed the rare delicious food and put the little disharmony behind them. Mother Wu Ye said with some emotion.

"It's not that exaggerated..."

Daimaru retorted in a low voice with some embarrassment,

"Those guys are making too much fuss..."

It's just a conflict between children. It's so spineless to invite parents out to suppress them at every turn.

Mother Wu Ye seemed to remember some past events.

"I haven't seen many jounin in so many years. I didn't expect that there is one in my family now! Daimaru always feels a little different from the jonin in my mind..."

Distance produces beauty, mystery produces awe.

The image of the aloof nobles overlapped with Daimaru's face, causing grandfather Kazuma and mother Kureha's awe of the jounin to suddenly drop several notches.

"When I was very young, I lived with my mother in a shrine. Those seemingly arrogant priests and shrine maidens were always afraid of jounin when they mentioned it..."

As he spoke, Wu Ye chuckled and looked at Daimaru carefully.

"People should not be judged by their appearance..."

"How can anyone say that about his own son..."

Daimaru complained dissatisfiedly,

"I am also a majestic and talented ninja outside. I can decide the future fate of many ninjas with just one sentence..."

"That's my son too..."

Mother Wu Ye covered her mouth and smiled,

"I really can't imagine what your face looks like when it's full of majesty..."

"Of course it's majestic and powerful..."

Daimaru glanced at his grandfather who seemed to be a little low on energy.

Sensing her son's gaze, mother Wu Ye said:

"Your grandfather looks like this every day after lunch. He just needs a nap..."

"Um……"

As you get older, it’s natural to be overly happy when something good happens, and to feel a little tired after the excitement.

"I really want your grandma to see what you look like now..."

"I have never seen my grandmother, and I don't even have a photo..."

"A woman who serves the gods does not need to leave too many traces of the world..."

Mother Wu Ye recalled the past and said quietly,

"Actually, the real situation is that hiring a photographer is too expensive..."

The situation of Sunagakure Village more than ten years ago was very bad. It was a common people's home. Extra expenses could be saved as much as possible.

Today's photographic equipment is still in a relatively primitive stage. Films need to be fully exposed. Cameras are still sophisticated equipment. Developing photos is also a technical job. Without trained professionals, they simply can't do it.

At that time, the Kingdom of Wind was in a state of war and chaos. It was not easy for ordinary people to survive, so how could they bother to take pictures?

"Speaking of which, Daimaru, your name was chosen by your grandmother a long time ago..."

"Is this happening?"

For more than ten years, this was the first time Daimaru knew that his name was actually given by his grandmother.

"Before I married your father, your grandmother told me that if I gave birth to a girl in the future, my nickname would be Fumiko, and my boy's name would be Daimaru. Unfortunately, your grandmother passed away before you were born..."

"I see……"

Daimaru's grandfather was just a somewhat simple commoner in Sunagakure Village. His grandmother died young, and his father, who grew up in a single-parent home, was not very attached to these things.

My grandmother grew up in a shrine, served several important people, and had the most experience in the family, so it was okay to listen to her when it came to naming.

but……

"Mother, let me explain. You just said that my grandmother just gave me the nickname 'Daimaru' before I was born, but how did this 'Daimaru' become my nickname now?"

"Well..."

Mother Wu Ye said with a smile,

"Actually, my family also wanted to give you a nice name, but later on, the name Daimaru Daimaru sounded quite smooth, so I kept calling you the same name for many years. When I signed you up for the ninja school, I also thought about it. Change your name, but children around your age know the name 'Daimaru' very well. Your grandfather and I thought it would be too late to change the name..."
