As soon as he appeared, he saw Kushina sitting on the sofa looking at him with a look like I already knew everything, and the smile on the corner of his mouth could not be suppressed no matter what.
"Mom, can you please stop doing such things as stalking?"
"Haha, Naruto did you find out?"
"I don't want to confirm whether Hinata will really become my future daughter-in-law."
"After all, Hinata, this child is too shy. I have to observe it myself to feel at ease." Kushina smiled.
There are ghosts only if you can't find them.
Naruto shook his head helplessly, and just then the doorbell rang again.
He turned around and walked to the door and opened it.
I saw Karin standing outside the door, holding a small cloth bag in his hand.
"Karin You are here."
Naruto turned sideways to let her in.
Karin nodded and followed Naruto and said:
"Tsunade teacher gave me a day off today. I had nothing to do at home, so I wanted to come over and have a look."
When Naruto led Karin through the yard and into the living room, Karin's footsteps stopped as soon as he entered the door.
There was a woman sitting on the sofa with the same red hair as her.
"You are?"
Karin's eyes fell on Kushina, and this inexplicable sense of intimacy made her feel a little dazed for a moment.
"Naruto, who is this?"
Kushina also stood up from the sofa and looked at the red-haired girl in front of him in surprise.
Since Whirlpool Country was destroyed in the war, she has never seen any of Uzumaki clan's clan members.
"Karin You are here."
Minato Namikaze sat on the sofa and smiled slightly at Karin.
"This is Karin Uzumaki, the surviving Uzumaki Clan person."
"Karin, this is my mother, Kushina Uzumaki."
Naruto briefly introduced to the two of them.
Although Karin still didn't understand what was going on, she still bowed to Kushina immediately:
"Hello, Aunt Kushina, my name is Karin Uzumaki."
Karin's voice was very soft, and there was a hint of intimacy in her politeness that she was not even aware of.
Then she straightened up and looked at Kushina, who looked exactly like herself, Red-Hair hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but say:
"When I see you, I feel an inexplicable sense of intimacy."
"Karin, Auntie was just resurrected by Naruto. Didn't it scare you?" Kushina walked forward with a smile.
Karin shook his head.
Kushina heard this and his voice softened unconsciously. "Come, come here, Auntie."
Karin nodded and walked over.
Kushina gently took Karin into his arms. Feeling the warmth, Karin couldn't help but feel sore.
She couldn't remember the last time she was held like this. After her mother was bitten to death by Kusagakure, no one had ever touched her with this kind of warmth.
Kushina hugged Karin, patted her back gently, and asked her how she came here before.
Karin leaned into Kushina's arms, tears falling silently.
She talked about what happened when she was a child. After her mother died, she was locked in a small windowless room. Every day, injured Grass Ninja lined up to bite her arm.
Later, she met Naruto at Forest of Death. Naruto took her out of Kusagakure and brought her to Konoha, giving her a new identity and a home.
Now Lady Tsunade accepts her as a disciple and teaches her Mystical Palm Technique and Chakra Scalpel every day.
Kushina felt more and more distressed the more he listened, and the hand holding Karin tightened tighter.
After Karin finished speaking, Kushina helped Karin wipe the tears on his face. "Karin, this will be your home from now on, you can come to Auntie anytime, anywhere!"
"Well, okay, Aunt Kushina!"
Karin nodded vigorously.
Then Naruto cooked a table of dishes, and the four of them sat around the dining table.
Karin was sitting opposite Naruto, and from time to time he raised his eyes to look at Kushina next to him. It happened that Kushina kept adding vegetables to Karin's bowl, asking her to eat more.
After dinner, Karin and Kushina sat on the sofa and chatted for a while. It wasn't until the moonlight hung high outside the window that Karin reluctantly stood up and said goodbye.
At night, in the bedroom.
Minato Namikaze was lying on the bed with his eyelids almost closed. Kushina was tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. He looked at the ceiling and remembered what happened to Karin.
Kushina The more I think about it, the more distressed I feel, and my eyes are a little sore.
Then I thought of something, sat up from the bed, and pushed Minato next to me:
"Minato, do you think this child Karin also likes our son?"
Minato Namikaze's eyelids moved but he did not open his eyes.
When Kushina saw that Minato didn't answer, he began to think of Karin's cute, sensible and strong look in his mind, and also thought of Hinata's soft and shy look that made people want to protect him.
Both girls have their own strengths, and both have a special bond with Naruto
Just when Minato Namikaze was about to fall asleep, Kushina jumped up from the bed:
"Minato, Karin or Hinata, who will be our daughter-in-law?"
Minato Namikaze rubbed his eyes, looked at Kushina's expression, and sighed silently.
"Kushina, you are too anxious."
"Let the children make their own choices about matters between themselves, and we as elders will not interfere."
"Naruto That kid is more mature than we thought. He will handle his own affairs well."
"I don't really want to choose a wife for Naruto, but everything that happened today was too dreamy."
Minato was resurrected, she was resurrected, her son grew up, and two girls appeared in front of them at the same time.
It was so unreal, she was afraid that when she opened her eyes tomorrow, it would all turn into a dream.
Seeing this, Minato reached out and gently took Kushina into his arms. "Kushina This is not a dream, we are really back."
Kushina leaned into Minato's arms and slowly closed her eyes, her breathing gradually becoming steady and long.
Early the next morning, Tsunade and Jiraiya heard the news and came over.
When Jiraiya saw Kushina who was watering the ground in the yard, he froze in place.
Tsunade walked in and his eyes widened the moment he saw Kushina.
"Teacher Lady Tsunade, Jiraiya, long time no see."
Kushina showed a bright smile to the two of them.
Tsunade strode over and looked around Kushina several times. After confirming that the person in front of him was a living body of flesh and blood, the expression on his face changed from disbelief to genuine joy.
Jiraiya couldn't help but sigh, "What is there that Naruto can't do now?"
Just as a few people were sitting in the yard chatting, a group of people knocked on the door of the villa.
Then Naruto came in with Shikamaru and other Xiaoqiang.
When a group of people saw not only Tsunade and Jiraiya sitting in the living room, but also Fourth Hokage and his wife from the textbook, the air suddenly became lively.
Sakura poked Ino next to him with his elbow. Ino opened his mouth and his eyes bounced back and forth between Fourth Hokage and Kushina.
Hinata and Karin were still calm because of yesterday's experience, and saluted several elders.
"Lord Hokage."
"Fourth Hokage-sama."
"Mrs. Hokage."
All the Xiaoqiang people also said hello in various directions, and their titles were a mess.
Minato Namikaze walked out of the living room and smiled at Xiaoqiang.
"Don't be so polite, just call me Uncle Minato."
Kushina saw so many friends from Naruto visiting, the smile on his face became brighter.
She immediately transformed into enthusiastic mode, brought out tea and snacks from the kitchen, and greeted these energetic young people one by one.
Hinata and Karin volunteered to help arrange the dishes and serve the tea. Ino took out a few lilies with the best blooms from the bouquet and put them into the vase on the stone table.
Ino walked up to Kushina and handed the bouquet with both hands, showing a signature sweet smile:
"Hello, aunt, my name is Ino Yamanaka, and I am a friend of Naruto!"
"Just call me Ino. Congratulations on your safe return with your uncle!"
"You're so welcome Ino!"
