Chapter 325: Suspecting that he is stupid

Seeing Madara's doubt, which did not seem fake, Uchiha Tajima temporarily gave up the idea of ​​going back to review the documents and leaned on the edge of the table, "Oh? Tell me about it?"

"Uncle Xuanshan, actually..." Madara's expression twisted slightly, but he still said the rest of the sentence, "Actually, he likes Brother very much, right?"

"Oh," Uchiha Tajima smiled, "You've figured it out. It seems that Xuan Shan has indeed neglected the practice of concealing his emotions over the years."

“After all, Uncle Xuan Shan has been comparing my elder brother with me…” Ban sighed, and rolled up the unfinished scroll with a look of silence, “After all, when I made a mistake, the sentence he often said was [Your elder brother was much less troublesome than you were] - I know I am not as good as my elder brother, but even you would not mention my elder brother and praise him so frequently…”

Uchiha Tajima laughed out loud, "There's nothing I can do about it. After all, before I took the position, Xuan Shan and his clan had been clan leaders for five generations. Because of the education he received since childhood, he really devoted all his love to the clan. And because of this feeling for the clan, even though he was full of resentment towards me at the beginning, he still helped me secure my current position. As long as it's good for the clan, he will eventually choose to compromise.

And Ling was indeed much less of a worry than you were at first. No matter what it was, as long as we told him once, he would remember and understand it completely, and he would be able to draw inferences about other situations. After he knew what he should do, he even became very restrained in his coquettish behavior..."

As he spoke, Uchiha Tajima's voice lowered, and his smile was full of helplessness and nostalgia. "To be honest, at that time I even felt that I was useless as a father. Not only did I not have a sense of accomplishment in teaching, but I also made a lot of low-level mistakes as a novice father when raising the children, which caused him, the eldest son, to suffer a lot.

So when I first got the news that he was seriously injured, I even thought for a moment that maybe Hui couldn't bear to see this child struggling so hard and wanted to take him away, but was afraid that we would be sad, so she left him a glimmer of hope..."

"Brother is still the same now - except for fighting with others, he is very restrained in everything he does, and he is always thinking about me and Izuna..." Madara sighed, and his mood was obviously low. He narrowed his eyes a little bit viciously and muttered, "And he always looks like he is easy to be bullied."

Uchiha Tajima turned his head and looked at Madara who was beginning to be angry with him, with unexpressible kindness in his eyes, "Haha, indeed, after all, Ling is sometimes too soft in character. It was fine before, but now he dares to conspire with foreigners... Madara will have a headache in the future."

Madara carefully tied the straps on the scroll and looked up, looking quite shocked, "Conspiring with foreigners?! Brother?!"

"Yeah, the Kurama family said that the Uzumaki kid has been blocking them on the road for several years and asking them to pass on a message..." Uchiha Tajima stroked his chin, "I don't know when Ling and the Uzumaki kid became so close. The few times they met were on the battlefield...hiss - that kid shouldn't have any other thoughts, right?"

"It's that annoying red-haired guy again?! I knew that bastard had been plotting something bad against my brother! Despicable! Shameless! Perverted!"

"Haha, yes, Ling took you with him at that time..." Uchiha Tajima laughed, but this smile could not hide the embarrassment, "But Madara, we two should have different thoughts."

"Why is it different?" Madara looked even angrier. "That bastard always pesters me whenever he sees me! Last time he invited me to a hot spring and drink, but now he's insisting on blocking me at the end of the year?! And the most important thing is, my brother clearly received the news but he didn't tell the family at all and even planned to continue meeting with that bastard in private!"

"That's not the case. After all, those two guys have always been very cautious. Although their friendship is known to the senior members of several clans, there is no evidence at all. So we old guys have no excuse to get angry...

But if he takes you out to meet people again in the future, I can look forward to catching him doing something wrong—" Uchiha Tajima looked at Madara who was completely furious with amusement, "and in my opinion, their friendship can be regarded as a good thing."

Madara's eyes immediately became as if he had seen a traitor, but his mouth opened and closed but in the end no sound came out.

"Hehe... Madara, the relationship between people cannot be simply determined by a good or bad sentence. Otherwise, with the strength of our two clans, it would not be difficult to stagger their missions and cut off their contact.

But as long as this matter can bring benefits to the clan and they can simply guarantee their own personal safety, it is inevitable that the two clans will turn a blind eye and use them to exchange information. "

Uchiha Tajima patted Madara's head with his hand and stood up straight, "Okay, let's go home quickly. I should go back to handle clan affairs. I don't want to be nagged by the elders at the end of the year...

Also, it is a good thing that Ling helped you improve your reputation in the clan this time, but if you don't cooperate, he will just be doing some useless work with little reward. When you get asked about it after you go out, don't be stupid and tell people that you know nothing."

"Oh." Madara stood up and said goodbye obediently. After Uchiha Tajima left, he touched the top of his head with a look of doubt, "Am I usually very stupid? Well - I should finish my homework quickly and go find Huo Heli to ask..."
