I, the stepfather of the ninja world!

Xiang Xun was very obedient. She didn't insist on seeing him off. She just stood there and watched him leave.

"Goodbye, Uncle Aye!" Xiao Xianglin waved goodbye.

"See you tomorrow!"

Kimura replied with a smile and closed the door.

In a blink of an eye, only the beautiful woman and the ignorant child were left in the huge house.

……

Volume 165: Swimming into the Red Sea of ​​Bonds: Mikoto's Intrigue

Kimura had a very accurate grasp of timing. As soon as he walked out of the yard of Xiangxuan's house, he met Itachi coming towards him.

Itachi saw his father and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He was smart and noticed that his mother was a little upset about his father's visit to Aunt Xiang Xun in the evening.

Now, my father can leave Aunt Xiangxuan's house early without anyone reminding him, which is undoubtedly a big plus.

Itachi was happy from the bottom of his heart.

"Father, mother asked me to call you home for dinner." Itachi said.

"Ah."

Kimura nodded with a smile, patted Itachi's head, and went home with him.

in the living room.

Mikoto sat at the dining table, holding her daughter in her arms, her chopsticks untouched.

Seeing Kimurano enter the room, she smiled softly: "Ano, you're back, did Itachi disturb you?"

In Kimura's opinion, the smile on her face seemed to be a bit dagger-filled.

"How can I disturb you? I was just about to come back! Don't you think so, Itachi?" Kimura said with a smile.

Itachi immediately agreed: "Father is right, I just walked out of my courtyard and I ran into him."

Misaka was immediately satisfied. She tapped her chin and the smile on her face softened. She stood up holding her daughter and said, "Aye, you must be hungry. Come and eat."

He didn't stand up to greet me before, but now he stands up and invites me to sit down. The difference in attitude is undoubtedly subtle.

Kimura easily noticed Mikoto's jealousy. He did not feel unhappy at all, but was very understanding.

After all, if you put yourself in their shoes, if anyone dared to go to Kushina or Xiang Xun's home to express condolences on his behalf, he would definitely punish them severely and would never tolerate them!

"Thank you for your hard work in preparing such a sumptuous dinner."

Kimurano smiled at Mikoto and sat on the chair next to her.

After he sat down and started eating, Mikoto sat down again with her daughter in her arms, and Itachi followed suit.

A family of four started to eat dinner.

After dinner, Itachi took care of his sister. Mikoto washed the dishes and followed Kimura upstairs to wash up and go to bed together.

……

Late at night, both houses were dark. There was still a light on in Mikoto's house, but the thick curtains were drawn and the light barely penetrated the fabric, emitting a faint halo, and nothing could be seen clearly.

In the bedroom, Mikoto, whose skin was as white as jade, sat on the wide black marble windowsill; Kimura sat in a mahogany chair by the window with a majestic look.

The two faced each other.

Mikoto looked down at her, her forehead was slightly wet with some loose hair, her red lips were slightly pursed, and her pair of beautiful legs in black stockings were slender and long. Under the light, she was bright and beautiful, with an alluring glow.

She bent her left leg and placed her foot on Kimura's left knee; her right leg was slightly straightened, and her toes gently stroked the Bagua mark on Kimura's abdomen.

"Ano, why isn't your hexagram seal dyed black anymore recently?" Mikoto asked curiously.

"..."

Of course it’s because there are no new bonds.

However, it was impossible to say this to Mikoto.

Kimura shook his head and sighed, "I don't know either. Although I was born with this mark, I don't understand it and I'm still trying to figure it out. Perhaps I've hit a bottleneck and it will take some time for it to continue to darken."

"Oh."

Mikoto believed it and stopped probing, and asked, "Ano, what clothes did Kushina wear at home today?"

"Uh……"

Kimura recalled and said, "She was wearing a short-sleeved shirt with suspenders and bell-bottom pants."

There was nothing to hide. After all, Itachi sent Naruto home at noon and saw Kushina. However, Itachi only saw the front of Kushina.

Therefore, Kimura didn't say much at this moment and concealed the backless details of the short-sleeved shirt from Mikoto.

Mikoto didn't pay much attention to hearing Kushina wearing a sling, after all, when Kushina was pregnant, she wore something cooler. Ano was used to it.

Mikoto then asked, "Where's Xiang Xun? What did you wear today? Did it look good?"

Kimura's eyes flickered slightly, and he thought that this was the key, and asking Kushina was just a prelude.

Kimura pretended to recall, then answered, "I was wearing a white shirt and a gray skirt."

Mikoto smiled faintly and asked, "Where does the hem of the skirt end?"

"Come here!"

As Kimura spoke, he stroked her calves, all the way to her knees, and pointed at the position to indicate the length of the skirt.

Mikoto's eyes flickered slightly and she tapped her chin, quite satisfied.

Kimura grinned, stroking her fingertips on her stockings, and asked knowingly, "Why do you care about their outfits? Do you want to compete with them in beauty?"

Mikoto would not openly express her jealousy. At least, she would not be too stingy until Kimura's behavior crossed the line. Otherwise, she would lose her virtue and make her husband unhappy. That would be even more troublesome. While being jealous, she must maintain her own excellence.

At this moment, facing Kimura's question, she answered: "Kushina and Xiangqian are so beautiful. I am several years older than them. I am an old woman. How can I have the mind to compete for beauty?"

"I just want to know what beautiful outfits you have seen outside, and then wear them at home for you to see. As a wife, it is my responsibility to satisfy your aesthetic needs!"

These words are perfect and there is nothing wrong with them.

However, there is still a mystery.

To be precise, ever since Kushina and Karenine moved in next door as neighbors, Misaka had gradually shown a whole new side of herself. She was no longer just a good wife, but also a woman in love, far more emotional and thoughtful than when she first fell in love with him.

Obviously, the emergence of potential competitors made her no longer speak her mind freely, and she became more tender and considerate like a woman.

Kimura smiled slightly, gently tickled the sole of her foot, and said in feigned anger: "How are you old? You are so young and beautiful! I won't allow you to mention 'old' all the time!"

When Mikoto heard this, she immediately smiled like a flower and her eyes turned into water.

What Kimura said was not a lie, nor was it an irresponsible comfort.

After defeating Isshiki that day, he took advantage of his unprecedentedly harmonious relationship with Kaguya and asked her to help him perform Yang Release to improve the physical fitness of several female ninjas who were bound to him.

Today, although Mikoto is over 30 years old, she has already maintained her youthful appearance. Even after another ten or a hundred years, she will still be as beautiful as before.

Mikoto was very pleased with Kimura's praise.

"Aye, you're so nice!"

Mikoto's sincere praise contained a sweetness that was even more sickening than the love words spoken by a man in love.

Kimura accepted her compliment without any psychological burden and said with a smile: "Honey, how are you going to reward me?"

Mikoto thought for a moment and said, "I'll wear a short-sleeved camisole for you to see. It will definitely be cooler than Kushina's!"

Kimura smiled and nodded, emphasizing: "I want more than just to watch!"

……

Volume 166: Swimming to the Red Sea of ​​Bonds: Caught Cheating?!

The next day, in the Hokage Building, Uchiha Affairs Office.

The sunlight shines into the office through the floor-to-ceiling windows, bringing warm warmth.

Today, it’s as leisurely as usual.

Xiang Xun sat at her workstation, holding her daughter, reading picture books with her and teaching her to speak and read.

Kimura sat leisurely in the office chair, leaning back comfortably, his eyes empty and the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

Last night, Mikoto changed into a halter short-sleeved shirt, saying it was cooler than Kushina's, but unfortunately, she didn't understand the actual situation and it ended up being slightly warmer than a backless short-sleeved shirt.

However, there is one thing that is better than Kushina.

That is, Kimura can do whatever he wants to her, unlike when she was at Kushina's house, where she could only watch secretly.

Mikoto obeyed with all her might, and Kimura satisfied the urge that she had never been able to satisfy in Kushina's kitchen. She still recalls it with fondness at this moment.

Xiang Xun saw that he couldn't help but raise his mouth, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Aye, what are you so happy about?"

"Uh… nothing."

Kimura smiled and shook his head perfunctorily, otherwise he couldn't talk about the secrets between husband and wife with Xiang Xun, right?

Xiang Xun's eyes flickered slightly, and she roughly guessed the reason why Kimura was happy. After all, Kimura was not so happy when he left last night, and it was obviously Mikoto who made him happy.

Xiang Xun couldn't help but lower her eyes, her gaze slightly dim. Last night, she fell asleep early with her daughter in her arms, and her pillow was empty; while Mikoto next door happily had Aye.

Xiao Xianglin felt her mother's low mood, looked up at her mother's chin, blinked her eyes, and called softly: "Mom~"

"Yeah, mom's here~"

Xiang Xun quickly adjusted her mood and continued to teach her daughter how to read and speak.

After Kimura finished reminiscing alone, he stood up and stood in front of the French window, looking at the Hokage's face rock in the distance.

After a while, Kimura suddenly had an idea and turned back to look at Xiangqian, asking with concern: "Have you had any difficulties in life recently? Do you have enough money?"

As far as I can remember, Xiang Xun has been shopping more frequently in the past few months. She often brings home large and small bags of clothes, shoes, jewelry, and cosmetics. It can be said that she spends money like water.

Kimura was a little worried that she would not be able to make ends meet.

Xiang Xun smiled and said, "The subsidies issued by the village are very generous and can't be spent all. Besides, Ah Ye, you forgot that I used to be an exile, and I could survive even if I was poor."

Kimura smiled and shook his head: "I brought you to Konoha, how could I let you suffer the same hardship as before?"

"Ah."

Xiang Xun had a smile in her eyes. Little Xiang Lin looked up at her again, blinking her big eyes, a little excited. Her mother's mood suddenly became better!

Xiang Xun pursed her red lips, glanced at the calendar on the corner of the table, and said, "Speaking of subsidies, it seems that today happens to be the day when subsidies are distributed this month. When I go back to eat at noon later, I will pick it up on the first floor."

"Ah."

Kimura smiled and nodded. In fact, this was not a coincidence. He suddenly remembered that the subsidy was distributed today, so he asked Xiang Xun whether she was in financial difficulty.

The subsidies for the descendants of the whirlpool are, of course, very generous.

After all, Konoha and Uzumaki have a deep connection, and the descendants of Uzumaki are the reserve Jinchūriki of the Nine-Tails, which is very important and has made outstanding achievements. Moreover, if the Uzumaki clan is destroyed, Konoha, as an ally, should provide assistance and care.

In the entire Konoha Village, only Kushina, Kaoru, Karin, and Naruto can be called descendants of the Uzumaki clan. There are also some ninjas who may have some Uzumaki blood in their bodies, but it is very weak and they do not have the excellent physique of the Uzumaki clan at all.

There are only four of us in total, and the financial pressure is not that great, so the funding is more generous.

Because of this subsidy, Xiang Xun can live an easy life, provide her daughter with abundant material, spiritual and cultural resources, and at the same time have the leisure time to spend a lot of effort on dressing herself up.

……

After learning to speak and read for a while, Xiao Xianglin got bored, so she pouted and said, "Mom, I want to go to the bathroom."

Xiang Xun certainly wouldn't stop her daughter, and said with a smile: "Baby, do you want mom to go with you?"

Xiao Xianglin shook her head and emphasized seriously: "Mom, I'm not a one-year-old child anymore, I can do it myself!"

Xiang Xun couldn't help laughing and nodded: "Then go slowly, be careful of the slippery ground."

"Uh-huh!"

Xiao Xianglin nodded, jumped from her mother's lap to the floor, and slipped out of the office happily.

Kimura looked at the little guy's back, smiled and shook his head: "This child, at such a young age, has already learned how to urinate."

Xiang Xun laughed along, and then she inadvertently caught a glimpse of the photo frame on the corner of the table. In the photo frame was a photo of her holding little Xianglin, and shopping with Kimura and Shion in Tansho Castle.
