Chapter 26: Father and Son Bureau

"Itachi...... You're still busy with your own business, and you can handle it yourself on your mother's side. ”

In the kitchen of the Uchiha Fugaku family,

Uchiha Mikoto looked at her son who was wearing a small apron and helping to chop vegetables with a kitchen knife.

"Mother, the knives used to cut vegetables are dangerous, and you need to be extra careful in your current physical condition!"

Itachi replied with a serious face, the kitchen knife in his hand cutting the ingredients neatly.

The proficiency of his movements surprised Mikoto, and she no longer spoke to stop him, but watched him help with the ingredients.

……

"Itachi, I'll do the laundry thing."

On the balcony, Mai Trin was holding her clothes and trying to dry them, but she was soon stopped by her own son.

"Mother, you are not fit to stand on a high place right now."

Itachi snatched the clothes that his mother was holding, and set them up one by one on the bamboo poles on the balcony with great skill.

……

"Mother, I'll do the cleaning."

"Mother, I'll do the ironing thing, the electric comfort bucket is too dangerous."

"Mother's ......"

……

Time flies, and when night falls,

When Fugaku, who was on duty at the Konoha Security Department, came home, he saw Mikoto sitting on the sofa, stupid.

"Mai Trin, is there anything wrong with you?"

Fu Yue didn't take off his shoes, and hurriedly walked over, "Do you need me to go to the hospital to make another appointment for a physical examination?" ”

Hearing her husband's voice, Mai Koto's eyes turned in his direction blankly, and it took a long time before waving her hand, "No, I just don't know what I should do." ”

At the end of the day, she didn't do anything.

No...... There were still in the morning, but after Itachi came home at noon, she basically couldn't do anything.

Whether it was tidying up the house, cooking, or doing laundry, all these chores that originally belonged to her were vetoed by Itachi.

And this has led to her becoming very relaxed and relaxed.

Since there is no discomfort, why does his wife have such an expression, Fuyue is very puzzled.

"What's going on?"

He asked, confused, and walked over to the couch and sat down, squeezing her hand.

Mai Tamin sighed and explained, "Yesterday I told Itachi about the fact that he was going to be his brother, and he was very happy. ”

Fu Yue nodded, his wife had already said this last night.

"As a result, today, he helped me like a demon."

Mai Trin continued with mixed emotions, "At first, I was quite happy, I felt that this child had grown up and knew how to help me. ”

"But...... When he took all the work that should have been mine on the grounds that I was pregnant, I was a little at a loss. ”

"I feel very wrong, I'm just pregnant, I'm not fragile enough to even cook or do laundry, but I don't know how to refuse that child, after all, this is the first time he actually cares about me."

As she explained, she took her husband's palm and leaned on his shoulder.

"yes......"

Fu Yue roughly understood the meaning, and hesitated for a moment, "Since Itachi wants to help you, that's a good thing." ”

"During this time, I was busy, and I didn't guide his training, maybe he didn't find it boring alone."

"Instead of wasting time doing useless work like a headless fly all the time, let him help you."

"After a while, things in the clan will stabilize, and I will train with him again."

Because the war is coming to an end, the situation in the clan is far more chaotic now than it was during the war.

During the war, everyone sat down together to discuss, and the content was all about how to deal with the offensive of the enemy village, which was relatively relaxed.

And now that the war is over, many people in the clan have different ideas.

These tedious things are far more troublesome than a life-and-death war, and he spends more time pondering and making decisions in this regard, and he can't take care of family affairs.

"Itachi isn't doing useless work."

But Mikoto, who was leaning on his shoulder, shook her head and spoke softly, "He has been doing some training in physical skills and swordsmanship. ”

"And he also spent a lot of money with me to buy the things we needed for training."

"I could feel that the kid's body was getting stronger."

"Especially when he helped me with housework today, I can see some details, his strength control, speed, and endurance are no weaker than those ninjas who specialize in physical arts."

She is also a ninja who has been on the battlefield, so she will not lose the ability of a ninja just because she is now a full-time housewife.

Compared to her husband, who has been busy outside, Mai Trin is very concerned about this son's situation.

Because of this, she didn't want to delay the progress of her child's cultivation because of herself.

"The strength of the body?"

Fu Yue was stunned for a moment, and then interest appeared on his face.

He was very clear about Itachi's practice in swordsmanship, after all, he carried an iron sword out every day.

But the specific content, he was not optimistic about the originally.

In the absence of guidance, a five-year-old child who has only seen swordsmanship can probably only do some basic movements, right?

But now, he's starting to be a little curious.

"Father, the water for the bath is ready."

At this moment, Itachi happened to walk into the house.

In order not to burn his mother in the process of preparing the bath water, he took on this task without hesitation.

"Wait."

Fu Yue glanced at his wife, who was clenching his palm, and gently patted the back of his hand to signal her reassurance.

Then, he stood up and looked at Itachi, "Come out with me first, I have something I want to talk to you about." ”

Itachi didn't know why, but nodded respectfully, "Yes, father." ”

……

Following his father, Itachi came to the courtyard with the doubts in his heart.

Artoria didn't follow, and when she got home, she usually found a place to sit by herself in a daze, and didn't follow her all the time.

After coming to the courtyard, my father did not speak immediately, but opened his writing wheel, and then looked himself up and down carefully.

Immediately, his gaze became subtle.

"Itachi, how do you usually practice?"

Fugaku asked softly.

“…… By using the flow of qi and blood to put a burden on the body, you can feel the changes in your body. ”

Itachi hesitated for a moment, then briefly summarized and explained his behavior.

It was impossible for him to tell Artoria about her existence, let alone explain where those delicate movements and ways of stimulating qi and blood came from.

And for his explanation, Fu Yue's gaze was even more complicated.

However, he didn't ask anything, but beckoned to Itachi, "Now, you attack me." ”

After a pause, Fu Yue added, "Don't spare any hands, do your best to attack me, no matter what way you do." ”
