Chapter 186: Mitarashi Family

Humming to myself, I took a deep breath and took in the sweet smell of flowers growing around me as I stood in the greenhouse, the shears in my hand feeling warm both due to my grip as well as the sweltering heat that threatened to consume everything, though that wasn't something that would dissuade me from being outside.

Especially not when I could use my chakra to cool the area around me with a nice, gentle breeze that moved the air around, something that Riku and Yasu both appreciated as they sat on the table, my two daughters watching me closely as I continued to prune the vegetable bush in front of me, the peppers growing wonderfully and further ripening, waiting to be plucked.

"Maybe I should make some stuffed peppers soon..? Or should we wait for a rainy day and make some spicy ramen..? I bet if I do that, that brat'll find his way over somehow..."

Riku and Yasu both stared at me silently as I asked that, and I couldn't help but chuckle as I reached over and pat their pudgy little cheeks, with Riku frowning slightly but remaining still, while Yasu just stared blankly at me, something that made me sigh slightly at how utterly identical she was to Cameia.

Stroking their cheeks for a few seconds, I nodded as I returned to pruning the pepper bush, making sure to leave more than enough leaves for it to continue nurturing itself, but taking away the excess that was overcrowding the greenhouse tables.

A nice summer day with nothing for me to do besides remain at home, living a leisurely life as I spent some time with two of my children, the other two currently tormenting Kurenai and Makoto inside the house.

Though...

"Heya sexy~!"

Feeling a familiar pair of hands grab me by my stomach and pull me back, I rolled my eyes and shook my head even as I smiled, enjoying the way my youngest wife pressed herself against me and flirted with me like I wasn't still recovering from being pregnant; I still had a belly, and even as she stroked it and rubbed herself against my behind, Anko only seemed to find that to be something arousing considering how often she made note of it when she was in the mood...

"We're back~! And we're 400,000 Ryo richer~! How's that sound, hm~?"

Still holding me tight, Anko smirked at me as she awaited praise, only for her smirk to grow heated as I gave her the answer I knew she wanted and she loved the most; I pushed myself against her and gave her a taste of what was to come.

"Sounds like you did a good job~! Where's Cameia?"

"Inside. We bought some high quality beef for dinner tonight, and I may or may not have bought a nice bottle of sake..."

Her voice trailed off, and we shared a smile before she leaned closer and kissed me, slipping her tongue over to mine and finally being able to relax after two days away from the house.

Though, she kept it brief as she released me and looked at the table, where both Riku and Yasu sat, watching us closely and making me cough slightly, feeling slightly embarrassed.

Anko didn't care though as she gave me another deep kiss before reaching forwards and lifting both her daughter - Riku - as well as Yasu off of the table, giving them both a quick kiss to the forehead and taking a step back.

"Hey... I was thinking, why not have another, y'know? Dunno what it is, but uh... seeing you like this is..."

Licking her lips, Anko grinned at me unabashedly even as she held our child and Cameia's child, her eyes hot with lust and only making me blush slightly as I glared at her, hissing "Not in front of the children, Anko!"

"Of course not! Me, you, our room after I give these two to Cameia? Get started on a fourth for you~?"

"No! Not now!"

My cheeks were reddening still, and I felt giddy inside even as I outwardly tried to display my 'dissatisfaction' with her actions, which made her grin and wink at me before heading out of the greenhouse, leaving me alone for a few moments.

Putting down the shears, I rushed after her and made my way into the house as well, Anko speeding off as soon as she heard the door of the greenhouse open again, her laughter making me laugh as well as I went inside.

When I found her again, she was hiding behind Kurenai, who was frowning as she looked between us, only to roll her eyes as she heard Anko whine "Nai-Nai~! Save me~! Koko is being rude!"

"I'm being rude?! You..! Don't let me catch you!"

Glaring at her, I began to stalk around Kurenai, who stood stock still as her frown turned into a smirk as she felt Anko shift around her as well, the Snake Charmer unknowingly placing herself in more danger as Kurenai suddenly grabbed her and held her in place, startling the violet haired woman and making her shout in surprise as I lunged forwards and began to tickle her, making her laugh as Kurenai joined in as well, all while Riku and Yasu blinked and took it all in from up close.

Seeing her Mom being 'attacked', Akari waddled forwards and began to tug on our pants, before grinning as she joined in as well, which made Tomoe join in as well as we all teamed up on Anko, who eventually fell to her knees and let the two babies go, Riku crawling away instantly while Yasu just turned and watched some more.

The house was filled with laughter as we all continued to play around, our lives as Shinobi briefly forgotten as we enjoyed ourselves as a family.
