A few days after Uchiha Madara and others left, the Hanbizakura tree, which had already accepted the water and soil, began to bloom. Generally speaking, a cherry blossom tree can last approximately from the first flower blooming to the last flower falling.

About half a month.

However, the ninja clan who sold the cherry blossom tree to Uchiha Izuna also said that since it was out of season and out of their cultivation range, the tree should not bloom for too long, about a week or so.

Therefore, ever since this tree bloomed, Uchiha Yoshi often took his mother to the tree. While looking up at the cherry blossoms that became more and more prosperous every day, he said with worry: "Before the cherry blossoms wither,

Brother, can they come back..."

Uchiha: "..." She doesn't know either, but judging from the recent tense atmosphere within the clan, this war may be a bit troublesome. However, such words must not be said to the second son.

At this time, she couldn't help but think, it would be great if Haichuan-kun was here...

Haichuan-kun is very powerful.

He knows how to make a seed germinate as quickly as possible, how to make a flower bloom longer, and what to use to attract more fireflies...

Haichuanjun seems to know everything.

So, if he were here, he would surely be able to find a way to make this tree bloom longer.

But then again...

If they meet again, how should she explain the fantasy reality? Will Haichuan-kun, who seems to have a strong mental hysteria, still be willing to accept her again? With only her soul left and a cheap husband and two biological sons...she

.

Everything is unknown.

However, this anxiety does not affect her decision and intention. In any case, no matter whether Haichuan Jun can understand or accept it, she will work hard to find him and explain everything clearly.

In the end, she had no choice but to place one hand on the tree, lowered her head slightly and pressed her forehead against the thick trunk of the cherry blossom tree. She closed her eyes and prayed to it silently: Please... just hold on a little longer for the sake of the children...

…

"Mom..." Uchiha Yao, holding his mother's cold hand in one hand, raised his head curiously and asked, "What are you doing?"

Uchiha opened his eyes, smiled and lowered his head and said: "I'm begging this tree, begging it to last until Xiaohui, your father and uncle come back."

"Then I'll come too!"

"Okay...but," Uchiha Ozi said seriously, "even if it fails in the end, you can't hate it, because you see, in this month that violates the season, it has worked so hard to bloom for us.

.right?"

"Yes." Uchiha Yao nodded, "Okay, mom, I promise, I won't blame the big tree that has worked hard and blooms beautifully."

"Be good~"

So, mother and son put their palms and foreheads on the tree trunk seriously and prayed together.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion...

Uchiha Ouzi always felt that something flowed into the tree along her palm, and then, as if she really got a response from it, the tree silently said to her——

Hi, I will try my best.

She didn't tell the children around her about this subtle feeling, because if the result was uncertain, don't give people hope. She just thought seriously... Well, it would be great if it was true.

After that, the two people would still hold hands and look at the big tree every day, and then pray to it very seriously.

One week…

Two weeks…

This tree actually bloomed so strongly that it did not wither until half a month later.

The rest of the clan was secretly surprised when they heard about this. However, because it was opened in the clan leader's courtyard, except for the secret guards who maintained daily security and the servants responsible for cleaning and maintenance, the rest of the people could not enter and could only

Listen to other people's descriptions.

On the seventeenth day when the cherry blossoms bloomed, the Uchiha clan members who went to war returned under the leadership of the clan leader. This time it was still a victory, and it was a big victory, so the overall atmosphere in the clan was joyful.

... Of course, some members of the clan died, but to be honest, everyone has been used to this kind of thing for a long time. How can there be no death in a war?

Simply put, all the men in the patriarch's family are fine.

The first thing they did when they got home was to put on their home kimonos and sit under the "miracle cherry blossom tree" to enjoy the cherry blossoms together before it withered.

Although it sounds a little hasty, but as a ninja family, why bother to stick to some details, not to mention that the current clan leader Uchiha Madara is also used to being wanton and hates following the so-called rules.

Why should we follow the rules set by others?

Since he is powerful enough, he should set all the rules.

Although there must be some "conservatives" who are dissatisfied, under his strong enough suppression, no one should openly make irresponsible remarks. As for those private complaints, Uchiha Madara doesn't take it seriously - just

It's pitiful enough that he dares to say this behind his back, why should he care about these poor people? There is no need to waste precious time on this.

The brothers Uchiha Teru and Uchiha Yoshi were extremely happy. They were allowed to sit closest to the tree trunk by their families. They looked up at a tree full of red cherry blossoms and looked down at the floor full of delicious food. They were also surrounded by the most beautiful scenery.

Favorite relatives.

Cherry blossoms are in full bloom...

Children's moods are also like soap bubbles floating in mid-air, light and colorful, constantly rising... rising... rising...

Madara Uchiha looked at the smiling faces of the children, then looked down at the cherry blossom petals falling in the wine cup, smiled, picked up the wine cup and drank it in one gulp. Then, he handed the wine cup aside.

, motioning to the woman sitting next to him to help him pour wine.

The Uchiha belt silently picked up the wine bottle, and then stared at——

"Huh?" Uchiha Madara, who noticed this gaze, turned to look at the person, raised his eyebrows and said, "Why do you keep looking at me? Could it be that you haven't seen me for a long time and you miss me?" You can say it directly, and he won't be angry.

Uchiha Izuna, who was also drinking, almost squirted out. He thought to himself that he is indeed an elder brother, and he can say such words that are similar to teasing "with integrity". Moreover, in front of his brother-in-law and the children, he didn't do it.

Are you embarrassed to see Hui?

Uchiha said "haha", but she didn't want to take away someone's face in front of other people - because she had discovered before that this person was really narcissistic and good at face, so she answered in a perfunctory way.

: "Yes, yes, I miss you, um, I quite do."

Uchiha Madara: "..." Tsk, she is indeed a boring woman. So he raised the wine cup and "poured the wine."

"Oh." Uchiha Oichi then started to pour the wine, but he couldn't help but told him, "Drink less." Is it an illusion? I always felt that he...

"There are some men who are ninjas who don't drink heavily." Uchiha Madara replied nonchalantly, "Don't do such womanly things." Oh, he didn't want to and wouldn't be controlled by a mere woman.

Uchiha Izuna almost didn't squirt again. He discovered that his brother and sister-in-law had a bad relationship. It was definitely not the latter's problem alone. His brother's mouth... was really a bit irritating.

"That's really embarrassing," Uchiha picked up his chin and replied, "I have been married to you for seven years and have given birth to two children. I am already a woman. If you say it out loud, you will be a 'girl'."

"Words' or 'men's words', that's a weird thing, right?"

Uchiha Izuna: "..." Pfft. I didn't expect that my sister-in-law would deliberately say derogatory words, and she was really no worse than her brother.

Uchiha Madara, who was contradicted in person, smiled and asked: "What are you doing? Are you talking to me?"

"How could it be~" Uchiha Oichi showed a fake smile in the worried eyes of the two children, "I am just discussing text issues with Madara-sama. You are the superior patriarch, how dare I~"

Uchiha Madara chuckled and raised the wine cup in his hand towards an annoying woman: "Then, the equally aloof wife of the patriarch, would you like a drink?" After that, he paused and added, "You

Drink water." His current body cannot drink, but he still knows this.

So Uchiha put down the wine bottle in his hand very happily, raised the wine cup with water in front of him, touched it with his husband, raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.

The boldness of his posture can be said to be no less than that of him just now.

Madara Uchiha raised his eyebrows in appreciation and said, "When you get better, let's have some wine together."

"Let's talk about it later."

"..." Tsk, you dare to answer "Let's talk" in the face of his invitation. It's really becoming more and more lawless.

However, compared to being obedient to a woman who seems to have no desires or demands, she is still a bit petty and more like a "living person".

Not to mention, Uchiha Madara was indeed not a narrow-minded person, so he just shook his head casually, said nothing more, and continued talking to his younger brother who was eating melon happily.

Night falls in the west.

Full of wine and food.

Everyone was ready to disperse.

Uchiha Madara was about to turn around and leave. Unexpectedly, his wife reached out and held his sleeve and said, "Madara-sama, I want to talk to you alone."

Uchiha Madara: "?" He was a little surprised, but he didn't say anything. He just nodded indifferently, "Okay, then come to my room."

"Yes." Uchiha nodded and followed closely.

Uchiha Izuna stretched out her long arms, hugged Uchiha Yoshi who subconsciously wanted to follow him, raised her slender fingers and put them on her beautiful lips, and said "Shh": Dama, you can't disturb your father.

and mother.

Uchiha Yao: "..."

Uchiha Teru, who understood in seconds, stretched out his hand to grab his younger brother with a reddish complexion, and motioned him to go back to their room in his father's courtyard together - yes, since Uchiha Yōya would occasionally stay here for the night, he simply moved in.

Went to my brother's room and both brothers were very satisfied with it.

Not long after.

Madara Uchiha and Ochiha Uchiha walked into the former's room under the gaze of the other three.
