Chapter 516 Pay back the money
Chapter 516 Pay back the money
Uchiha Station, outside a newly built single-story Japanese-style building.
"Sasuke, why do you have time to come here today?"
Mikoto, who was busy cleaning the house, looked at the melancholy second son and was a little curious as to why he was here today.
"Stop standing outside the door, come in quickly~"
Following his mother through the door, Sasuke's eyes fell on an 18 or 9-year-old girl, or young woman, inside the door.
"Quan...sister."
After saying hello politely, Sasuke's eyes swept through the door, but he didn't see the person he was looking for, and his expression was a little bleak.
"I heard that eldest brother is on vacation today, isn't he at home?"
After politely greeting his 'sister-in-law', Sasuke looked at his mother next to him and asked.
I don’t know why, but after my eldest brother got married, he didn’t like dealing with his eldest sister-in-law very much.
Even when he came to Itachi, he still had the attitude of giving it a try, wanting to see if more advanced illusions would have an effect on Naruto.
However, a voice in his heart told him that his genjutsu would not have much effect on Naruto.
In the Hokage's office, a beaming Jiraiya looked at the pile of information in front of him, and his whole face slowly began to solidify.
Although Tsunade is more rational than those bad gamblers, she has her limits. It is simply impossible to bet on this hole just by relying on Jiraiya alone.
He is still immersed in failure and somewhat unable to extricate himself.
Frowning, Sasuke's eyes swept across Izumi's face.
Izumi knew how much Itachi loved this younger brother. Although she was a little jealous, she still generously expressed her welcome to Sasuke to come to Itachi.
And Sasuke, looking at them side by side and busy together, felt that he was a little unnecessary this time.
"What, do you want to back down?"
He is currently immersed in the excitement of being a father, although he cares about his brother very much. But the son, or Quan, is more important now.
"Sasuke, I know that losing to Naruto in the last Chunin Exam was a big blow to you, and I want Itachi to help you train."
Although he didn't know why, he instinctively knew that this should be the case.
"Ah, it's true!"
"With your strength, there is still hope that you can help Tsunade pay off her loan in your lifetime~"
Seeing Itachi return, the smile on Quan's face was very bright, with a smell called happiness.
Speaking of this, Mikoto smiled at the corners of her eyes, obviously in a very good mood.
"Sasuke comes to find Itachi, I'm happy before it's too late!"
"Although the amount of the loan plus interest is a bit staggering, but..."
"In the future, we must not let Tsunade control money!!"
It’s really true love!
However, as a woman, Mikoto still takes good care of her daughter-in-law.
She was about to become a grandmother, which made the still young Mikoto feel happy on the one hand, but also a little at a loss on the other.
"However, this time is a special situation. Itachi doesn't have much vacation time. Please don't disturb him recently."
"I'll accompany you!"
Could it be that there is something wrong with eldest brother's health?
"It's not what you think."
"I'm going to deal with these medicinal materials first, and I'll find you later."
<divclass="contentadv"> Looking at Sasuke who was hesitant to speak, Itachi roughly knew what the other person wanted to say, and originally planned to poke him in the forehead.
Itachi and Izumi have been married for two or three months, and now that the result is coming, it is a natural thing.
"How about it, do you still want to pay back the money?"
His eyes swept over Quan's belly. Sasuke was just surprised at the news of his sister-in-law's pregnancy, but did not show any happiness.
Having said this, Mikoto looked at her second son with serious eyes.
Then take Tsunade on a romantic trip.
Want to marry Tsunade with some cleverness? How can such an easy thing happen? Toshiro was the first one not to agree.
Afraid that Sasuke would feel uncomfortable, Mikoto explained:
"Pregnant women who are pregnant for the first time will be a little emotionally unstable. Your eldest brother has to spend time with Quan, you know?"
"Besides, you don't have to come here to take care of me. I can do it myself."
"Since you and Tsunade have made huge contributions to the village, I can make the decision and waive the interest for these years. You only need to pay back the principal."
Itachi, dressed in regular clothes, entered the door holding a large bag that exuded a strong herbal smell.
He had seen what kind of species a gambler was in his previous life.
This can't be blamed on Shizune. She only has a vague idea of how much money Tsunade borrowed, and does not have an accurate figure.
Toshiro was not surprised at all when he heard Jiraiya's somewhat unconfident answer.
It's better for Jiraiya to pay back the money first than to have Tsunade take it and give it to the gambling shop for nothing later.
But thinking about the smell of herbs on his hands, Itachi dismissed the thought and turned to the kitchen to process the herbs.
"Yes!"
However, his fantasy was shattered before it even started.
"Can...can you...repay part of the principal first?"
Only when Jiraiya ran out of money could he let him do more work. Otherwise, given this guy's personality, he would probably disappear in a short time.
"I didn't expect that I didn't even get half of what Tsunade owed~"
"I thought that my royalties and the money saved from so many years of work were a huge sum of money."
"No problem! You can pay back as much as you want~"
Walking out of the Hokage's office, Jiraiya felt that his steps were shaky and he was shaking when he walked.
Ignoring the bitter look on Jiraiya's face, Toshiro's answer broke Jiraiya's last illusion.
"Who is sick?"
At the same time, he was also thinking about how he could defeat Naruto.
In the last chuunin exam, Sasuke, who had no cheats, or whose cheats were not strong enough, lost to his old enemy Naruto. At this time, he came to Itachi, already wanting to let Itachi guide him in his training.
I looked at the bankbook and saw that there was not much left in the deposit.
"If you want to find someone to train, then go to dad. After the chunin exams, he should have time to guide you in your training."
"Are these all true?"
"Also, we can't let her sit idle like this, otherwise, Tsunade will definitely go gambling!"
"This is really... a waste of money~"
"How is this possible..."
Jiraiya thought about the consequences of Tsunade's money management and made up his mind.
The words came out of his throat almost in a moan, and his voice couldn't control its trembling.
"Yes Quan, she is pregnant."
In the last battle, the terrifying chakra displayed by the opponent was so amazing that even if he asked his father to help him train, it probably wouldn't have much effect.
After more than 40 years of long-distance love, some light finally appeared this time, and he was excited in his heart.
"It's Sasuke, why do you have time to come here today?"
"What Itachi went over to get was anti-fetal medicine~"
It turned out that Jiraiya planned to help Tsunade pay off the loan, so that he could strike while the iron was hot and directly propose to Tsunade.
"Anyway, you can't disturb Itachi for a while."
"Itachi!"
Jiraiya was obviously misled by Shizune's words.
He followed Itachi into the kitchen.
This also led to her mistakenly believing that the money was enough to repay Tsunade's loan when she saw Jiraiya's wife, and thus misled Jiraiya.
"How about it, do you want to continue to pay Tsunade the money?"
Looking at her youngest son's expression, Mikoto felt a little distressed as she knew where he came from.
Looking back at Izumi who was a little shy, Mikoto revealed the answer.
……
"Medicine?"
Whether Jiraiya still pays back the money, Toshiro doesn't care, or he is happy to see it happen.
His face was rosy, his mouth was smiling, and he looked like he was immersed in happiness. He didn't look like he was sick!
"Mom, don't bother!"
Although Tsunade only agreed to be his girlfriend and did not agree to get married directly, this was the closest he got to a goddess.
Mikoto sternly rejected her daughter-in-law's reaction. However, she was very satisfied with her daughter-in-law's attitude. This was how the family could be harmonious.
Seeing the second son and asking further questions, Mikoto interrupted Sasuke directly.
"Were you just discussing me?"
Different from Jiraiya's bitter expression, Toshiro looked like he was gloating about his misfortune, and he didn't forget to sprinkle salt on Jiraiya's body after all.
As for Sasuke, it wouldn't be a big deal if he delayed it a little.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Sasuke sitting on the sofa and said hello with a smile.
However, there are more important people who need her care now, and she has no time to comfort her second son's injured heart.
"I asked him to go find your Aunt Meixiang and get some medicinal materials. He will be back soon!"
As he walked, Jiraiya planned his and Tsunade's future.
"Well, the best way to keep a woman busy is..."
After thinking about it, Jiraiya slowly came out of the depression just now, his eyes filled with longing.
The staff in the Hokage building thought that he had successfully proposed to Tsunade-sama~
