Chapter 215: You are willing to take care of me in my old age...right?

“No intention of getting married?” Uzumaki Mito frowned slightly. “If you don’t get married, what will you do when you’re old?”

“At that time, there won’t even be anyone to pour you tea or water.”

No marriage means no children, and no children means no one can take care of Tobirama.

As his sister-in-law, she needed to consider her brother’s future life.

Don’t look at how carefree Tobirama is living alone now; when he gets old and can’t walk, not having children will be a very troublesome thing.

As for Renye, he will still need to start a family and career in the future, so he will naturally choose to move out. It’s impossible for him to always come back to take care of an old Tobirama, right?

Even if Renye is filial, he can’t stand serving Tobirama all the time…

It’s better to get married and have your own child.

This is good for both Tobirama and Renye.

And even if you don’t want children, you should at least have a woman by your side, right?

Without a mistress in the house, there’s no one to cook or clean, and even delivering meals has to be done by Renye.

If she hadn’t come to clean beforehand, Renye would have been busy for who knows how long today.

Renye not only has to cook but also clean. If there was a mistress in the house, the child would be able to relax a bit.

After all, he is Tobirama’s adopted child, not a nanny trained by Tobirama.

Uzumaki Mito always felt that two big men couldn't take good care of themselves, and they still needed to find a good woman who could be thrifty and manage the household.

“Sister-in-law, there’s no rush for marriage.” Senju Tobirama’s expression was serious. “The Village still has many things that need me to handle.”

He had no thoughts of marriage and decided to use the excuse of being busy with Village affairs for now.

Anyway, his elder brother and sister-in-law had urged him to marry more than once or twice, so he was quite experienced in dealing with such matters.

As for future urging marriage, he would deal with it later.

“You’re over forty, and you’re still not in a hurry?” Uzumaki Mito rolled her Byakugan at his words, saying exasperatedly, “Are you going to wait until you’re sixty or seventy before you plan to get married?”

When you reach that age, what young lady would be willing to marry an Old Man?

She could tell Tobirama was making excuses again, and today, no matter what, she had to finalize this matter.

Senju Tobirama saw that his sister-in-law was serious and said helplessly, “Sister-in-law, I really have no interest in marriage.”

He was naturally indifferent to women and had no interest at all; not getting married was the best plan.

No matter how much his sister-in-law pressured him, he would not agree to this matter.

Renye knew that the Old Man’s temper was very stubborn; once he made up his mind, no one could change it.

It seems this Old Man really wants to stay single until he dies.

Not bad, this is what a true strong person should do.

No women in the heart, the sword naturally becomes divine!

Women? They only affect the speed of drawing the sword, that’s all.

He was preparing to emulate Senju Tobirama’s actions and become a true strong person!

Coincidentally, he also wasn’t interested in women.

Senju Tobirama noticed Renye’s “worshipful” gaze...

...and the corner of his mouth subtly curved upwards.

Does this kid agree with my point of view?

Heh heh, as expected of the child I personally raised!

His personality is exactly like mine.

Renye’s gaze met Senju Tobirama’s, and he quickly lowered his head, starting to shovel the rice in his bowl.

Did this Old Man realize that he was the one who threw the blame on him?!

...

Forget it, let’s not gossip anymore, let’s eat first.

Lest the gossip turn on himself, wouldn’t that be asking for trouble?

“If you’re not interested in marriage, then when you get old, who will take care of you until your death?!” Uzumaki Mito was a bit exasperated; Tobirama was truly unyielding.

With Hashirama not in the Village, she really couldn’t persuade Tobirama.

The atmosphere at the table instantly quieted, with only the sound of bowls and chopsticks clashing as Renye and Tsunade ate.

Renye knew the plot had reached its final moment. Now it was up to the Old Man to see what he would say to resolve this marriage urging crisis.

As long as Senju Tobirama successfully resolved the crisis, he could then follow suit and deal with Aunt Mito’s marriage urging in the future.

Anyway, Senju Tobirama isn’t even married yet.

No rush, absolutely no rush.

Even if Aunt Mito urges marriage, she’ll go to Senju Tobirama first. As for him, he can use this Old Man as a shield.

Renye couldn’t help but sigh that he was simply a genius, having so easily solved the century-old problem of elders urging marriage!

Just then, Renye suddenly noticed Senju Tobirama’s gaze subtly falling on him.

A bad premonition arose in his heart; he felt that the Old Man’s gaze was ill-intentioned, as if he was plotting something.

Renye continued to lower his head and eat, pretending not to notice Tobirama’s gaze. When there were no more dishes in his bowl, he ate plain rice, not daring to reach for more food, trying to minimize his presence.

He can't see me, he can't see me...

“Sister-in-law, you’re mistaken.” Senju Tobirama was silent for a moment, then spoke softly, “Isn’t there still that kid?”

His red pupils looked towards Renye, whose head was almost buried under the table.

“That kid is my adopted son. When I get old, he will naturally be the one to take care of me until my death.”

Renye didn’t expect this Old Man to use him as a shield; how hateful!

How can a person be so selfish!

If you don’t want to get married, then don’t, but what’s with using him as an excuse?

The naturally evil Senju Tobirama truly resorted to any means to avoid marriage!

You’re happy now, but what about me?

Am I also supposed to adopt an orphan and have him take care of me in my old age until my death?!

“Tobirama, you can’t make Renye serve you for a lifetime, can you?” Uzumaki Mito frowned, asking, “This child will still need to start a family and career in the future.”

Although she said that, she did think it was a good idea.

She was just worried about burdening Renye, which was why she wanted Tobirama to get married and have children.

If Renye himself was willing, then it was up to Tobirama.

If he doesn’t want to get married, then don’t, as long as Renye takes care of him.

But all of this had to be based on Renye’s own wishes…

Thinking of this, Uzumaki Mito looked at Renye and softly asked, “Renye, are you willing to take care of your Uncle Tobirama in the future?”

She had made up her mind… as long as Renye agreed, she would no longer inquire about Tobirama’s marriage.

If he didn’t agree, she would arrange another marriage for him.

After all, this guy was very stubborn; even she and Hashirama hadn’t been able to persuade him back then.

“Kid, you’re willing to take care of me… right?”

Senju Tobirama narrowed his Byakugan, staring at Renye, the threat in his tone unmistakable.

If this kid dared to refuse, he would make him taste his power!

Renye was stared at by the Old Man’s threatening gaze and subconsciously swallowed.

“Yes, of course, I’m willing to support Uncle.”

He had no resistance to taking care of Senju Tobirama in his old age, so of course, he wouldn’t object to this matter.

After all, he was Senju Tobirama’s adopted son, so there was absolutely no problem with him taking care of him until his death.

What annoyed him was that this Old Man actually used him as a shield; how hateful!

Senju Tobirama nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this.

He turned to look at Uzumaki Mito, feeling a bit smug.

“Sister-in-law, this kid is willing to take care of me, so you don’t need to worry about my marriage…”
