It was dinner time. In the Uchiha clan, Shenyue, Madara and Huohe sat around the table, enjoying a dinner that was not really sumptuous.
Unlike the Senju who liked to eat together, the Uchiha, who was aloof and reserved by nature, preferred to eat separately, and the dining utensils were also very particular. On the low table made of superior Torreya grandis wood, there were three luxurious and dazzling lacquerware food boxes, but the food in such exquisite utensils was extremely shabby.
The Uchiha family's dinner today was a whole piece of tofu covered with sauce, a large and roughly chopped boiled radish, and the side dishes were sticky natto and miso soup. The staple food was a large bowl of rice with plums, and the only meat was fried crispy fish.
Even though the chef's cooking skills were superb and the food he cooked was quite delicious, the thought that even the head of the Uchiha clan could only eat such poor dishes made people want to cry for Konoha's financial situation.
Kneeling at the dining table, Huo He silently removed all the bones from the fish in his food box, and then sent the whole fish to Shen Yue's bowl.
Shen Yue, who was being fed, looked at the two pieces of fish in her food box, and then looked at Huo He's dinner without any meat, and suddenly felt infinite sadness in her heart. She stretched out her chopsticks and divided the fish sent by Huo He into two portions, one large and one small. She only kept a small piece for herself and sent the large portion of fish back to Huo He's bowl.
"Thank you, father, but I'll have enough to eat this."
My daughter is an angel!
Huo He's father was moved to tears. In his eyes, with more than 500 layers of beautification filters, Shen Yue's whole body was coated with a layer of gold, and no matter what she did, she was the purest and most beautiful one.
But soon, Shen Yue personally broke Huo He's unrealistic fantasy.
Under the gaze of Huohe and Madara, Shenyue ate the crispy fish meat with satisfaction. The Uchiha clan, who are good at fire escape, are unexpectedly good at cooking.
She pinched off a large piece of fish meat with chopsticks and put it on the tip of her tongue, feeling the sweetness of the fish meat and the crispness of the fish skin. After Meimei finished eating the whole fish, she sent all the natto that she didn't like to eat to Huohe's bowl.
This scene made Huohe's mouth and eyes twitch together. The so-called being a parent is to experience things like eating the leftovers of your own children.
But the ninja born in the Warring States period knew the preciousness of food, not to mention that the food at the moment was not so much that it could be wasted at will. Shenyue's picky eating habit made him very unhappy. He was determined that he must let her change this bad habit.
With a slight cough, Huohe tried to show the majesty of being a father, but the majesty was insufficient, and the warmth was excessive, and he looked like a silly father. He picked up a large chopstick of natto and tried to put it into Shen Yue's bowl, but Shen Yue quickly pushed her food box aside when she saw this, fearing that the disgusting natto would contaminate her rice.
"Shen Yue, natto is very nutritious, try eating some."
The frustrated Huo He had no choice but to lower his posture and comfort Shen Yue softly. At the same time, he kept reaching for Shen Yue's mouth with the chopsticks in his hand, trying to feed her the evil natto himself.
"But natto is sticky, it's really disgusting!"
Shen Yue's expression was visibly horrified. She had been using her training as a ninja to the extreme, perfectly avoiding all the attacks of Huo He. Uchiha Madara, who was watching from the side, raised his mouth and decided to include natto in Shen Yue's punishment for failing to complete the training.
As a father, his dignity was challenged again and again, and veins popped up on Huohe's forehead. At this moment, he no longer simply wanted to correct Shenyue's picky eating, but to fight for his dignity and ninja way!
"Shenyue, as an Uchiha, how can you be picky about food! Just eat a little, really just eat a little!"
"No, I will definitely vomit if I eat that disgusting thing!"
Staring at the sticky and stringy mysterious food on the chopsticks in horror, Shenyue's face turned pale. When she thought of the thing that smelled like an uncle's foot going to her mouth, she felt her stomach churning uncontrollably. The smell made her want to vomit just by smelling it.
Natto, it's so evil! She absolutely doesn't want to eat this kind of thing!
At the moment when the father-daughter relationship between Shenyue and Huohe was about to break because of a chopstick of natto, Uchiha Madara, who had been eating silently beside him, finally spoke. He put down his chopsticks elegantly and placed them on the empty bowl that had been eaten clean. He raised his eyebrows, his eyes quickly swept over the father and daughter who were chasing each other with food boxes, with a faint smile in his eyes.
"If she doesn't like it, don't force her to eat it."
Shen Yue sat down proudly holding the food box, while Huo He put down his chopsticks helplessly. He understood it. Come on, Shen Yue's picky eating problem is all due to the clan.I grew up with it.
Sitting back next to Shen Yue, Uchiha Huohe was filled with emotion. Before his baby daughter was born, he had never had the experience of eating with the clan leader.
Before that, let alone such private time, whether it was a clan meeting or on the battlefield, the only one who could stand next to Madara-sama was Izuna-sama.
Thinking of Izuna-sama, Huohe felt a pang of grief in his heart. Izuna's death was not only a huge blow to Madara, but in fact, his death was a devastating shock to clan members like Huohe and the Uchiha clan itself.
Madara was aloof and arrogant, and knew nothing about politics. Izuna basically managed all the clan affairs, and was fully responsible for diplomacy. At that time, the warlike Madara could be active on the battlefield, because he knew that his younger brother Izuna would always support the clan behind him and fully support him.
But Izuna died before peace came, on the eve of the establishment of Konoha Village. His death means that Uchiha Madara has lost his limbs, the Uchiha clan has lost its head, and the peace between the Senju and Uchiha clan has become precarious.
Senju Tobirama, the real ruler and person in charge of the Senju and Konoha, is a person full of hatred and prejudice against the Uchiha clan. Under the suppression of Hashirama, he can put these aside and coexist peacefully with the Uchiha clan, but how long can Senju Hashirama suppress him?
How can the Uchiha clan, who has lost their head, fight against the head of the Senju clan?
Once Senju Tobirama becomes the second generation Hokage, he will definitely suppress the Uchiha clan with all his strength. How can they survive in Konoha, which is full of prejudice and hatred?
The future of Uchiha, and even the future of Konoha as a whole, is not as beautiful as Madara and Hashirama imagined.
If Lord Izuna is still alive, how good would it be? He will never let such a thing happen!
Huo He felt a splitting headache. Like most Uchiha, he was not good at intrigue. On the contrary, the young Shen Yue showed talent in this aspect. Compared with the first-class strong, the Uchiha clan now needs a decent smart person. Even a child like Shen Yue cannot ignore her ideas.
"Shen Yue, say again what you said to Madara-sama during the day."
Huo He looked at Uchiha Madara who was sitting on the side holding hot tea. When he found that Madara did not mean to stop him, he let Shen Yue continue talking at ease. Although it was really a funny thing to let two adults listen to a five-year-old child's advice on the survival of the clan, everything made sense when he thought that this was a ninja world where five-year-old children could go to the battlefield and seven-year-old children had the thinking of Hokage.
"How should I say it?"
Shen Yue put down the bowl and chopsticks and closed the food box in front of her. She raised her head, her young face was full of precocious sharpness, and she said solemnly:
"I think it is completely impossible for Uchiha to preside over the ninja school."
"Of course."
Uchiha Madara chuckled, and it was hard to tell whether it was a mockery or a genuine pride for his best friend.
"Such a good idea, Hashirama will not let it go."
When he thought of the elusive and dark Hashirama during the day, cold sweat oozed from Shenyue's forehead. It was so scary and unexpected. Who would have thought that Senju Hashirama would appear there!
"However, we can still participate in it. This not only means letting the children of the family go to school, but also allowing our Uchiha people to serve as teachers."
Shenyue patted his face and tried his best to get rid of Senju Hashirama's face from his mind. Huohe was the first to question it in confusion. He didn't want the children of his clan to stay with those annoying guys of the Senju clan all day. Especially Shen Yue, when he thought of her being surrounded by ill-intentioned Senju, especially a Senju member named Taohua, he wanted to draw his sword and kill all the Senju immediately!
"Since we Uchiha can't take full control, we might as well give up directly. Anyway, our clan has always relied on clan learning for thousands of years."
Shen Yue pursed her lips and shook her head lightly, her dark eyes swept across her father Huohe, completely rejecting his words.
"After the school is established, not only civilians and Senju, but also all the families will go there sooner or later. Instead of resisting this matter, it is better to seize the opportunity as soon as possible."
The Uchiha Fire Core, who was knocked out by one blow, widened his eyes unwillingly, opened his mouth slightly and wanted to say something, but couldn't find a rebuttal for a while. Seeing this, Shen Yue quickly added another knife:
"The Ninja School must be one of the most important power institutions in Konoha in the future. If you want to join the Uchiha forces in it, you can only act now."
"But..."
He understood the truth, but when he thought of Senju MomokaThe possibility of becoming a teacher and contacting Shen Yue made Huo He unwilling.
"Alright, Huo He."
At this moment, Uchiha Madara, who finally drank all the tea, completely ended Huo He's dying struggle. He put down the tea set in his hand and glanced coldly at Uchiha Huo He who was frozen in place.
"This matter will be settled according to Shen Yue's words."
Since even the clan leader has spoken, the matter of joining the ninja school is really settled. Huo He's eyes were dull, and his hands were weakly supported on the tatami. However, before he could completely digest this bad news, Madara made a terrible order that was like losing his parents to Huo He.
"Huo He, after the ninja school is established, you will be a teacher."
