After the bustle, the streets were scattered, and the makeshift stalls on the left and right were still emitting black smoke that had just been extinguished, but they were empty, except for a few workers and ninjas who were cleaning in the morning, and everyone else was sleeping soundly at home at this time, accumulating energy for the second carnival of the evening.

As a shinobi, Makoto doesn't feel tired, but because of this atmosphere, his steps can't help but become a lot lazy.

As soon as he finished his morning exercise, he was informed that the Great Elder was looking for him, and he didn't know what it was, so he secretly slandered, it wasn't because he sent the world home too late last night, right?

Last night, the Great Elder sent someone to urge him three times, and the world was reluctant to go home, although this girl has become more and more dignified and noble as she grows older, but this playful character is still as boyish as when she was a child.

Although the streets of the family settlement were not small, Makoto walked quickly, and in a few moments he passed through the piles of garbage that had been swept away, and saw the Great Elder's Mansion.

"Makoto, you're here."

Although it is an important holiday, it seems that Tomoo is busier than usual when he looks at the way he is buried in his papers.

"Hmm."

Seeing that Zhifu looked flawless, he answered sincerely absent-mindedly, stayed on the side, and waited for the Great Elder to summon him.

"I didn't expect you to come so early."

Tomoo raised his head, looked at Makoto, and smiled apologetically, it stands to reason that young people will sleep until three poles in the sun today, for example, his son Fugaku, who played with the daughter of the Naoshima family until late yesterday and came back, and has not gotten up yet, considering this, his notice to the Makoto family is "Come here when you get up".

"I'm used to waking up early." Makoto smiled.

Zhifu secretly praised in his heart, Cheng's diligence is counted in the entire family, only to say that this morning exercise, can persevere, cold and summer, the entire Konoha is only a small number of people.

Relatively, these people are all the elite of Konoha.

As a regular ninja village, Konoha has encouraged ninjas to strengthen their exercise since its establishment, and the second generation has improved the training reward mechanism, a wealthy family like Uchiha, and even has a mandatory monthly exercise day quota, but ninjas and ordinary people are the same, like hard work like exercise, there are still a few who are willing to take the initiative to do it.

Quickly finished processing the document in his hand, Tomoo put it in the pile that had been processed on the left hand side, crossed his hands, and said to Makoto who was sitting on the side:

"The Great Elder asked me to inform you to come because he had an important matter to ask you."

Makoto stopped the cultivation of his right hand hidden in his sleeve, focused his attention, and sat up slightly straight.

"The Great Elder wants me to ask you, after so much time, why is there no news about your marriage?"

Cheng was dumbfounded, and even taken aback in his heart, he thought that in the past few years, as his strength gradually improved, the family should no longer have the worry that he would die on the battlefield casually, and the family should not be so anxious about passing on the offspring.

However, it seems that the wealthy family's emphasis on bloodline inheritance has far exceeded their previous expectations.

Seeing Cheng's expression, Zhifu didn't go around in circles with him, although the relationship between Zhifu and Makoto became increasingly close, but treating him is still the family's consistent strategy after all-just four words of openness and honesty:

"The matter of the eldest lady of the world is not something that a subordinate should say, but before the age of fourteen, it is impossible for the eldest elder to agree to the marriage of the eldest lady, and the three-year period is not far away, so you should still put more effort into this regard."

Tomoo said vaguely, but the meaning has been expressed very clearly, Makoto, who originally thought that he could delay for a few years until the world became an adult, frowned, the family's request was above board, and the kindness and sincerity were done sufficiently, and he had no strong reason to refuse.

--The only difficulty is that Makoto himself never thought of giving birth to a child with a woman who has no feelings, but here, to use this difficulty as a reason to say it, it is inevitable that he will be pampered and arrogant, and he will be deliberately against the family.

You must know that the Uchiha clan, which attaches great importance to the inheritance of blood, has always been forced to marry by the family, and Makotomi's nominal father Totoyo is a typical example, which can allow Makoto to choose freely, and also limits the time limit of three years, compared to ordinary members of the family, the upper echelons have treated Makoto to the extreme.

"I see."

Refusal is not knowing how to lift, honest nodding should be, but in my heart I am worried about how to deal with it, is it true to catch a girl casually and let someone else give birth to a child for him......

Zhifu was helpless, and increased his tone, pointing out the true meaning of what he wanted to say: "I heard that your cousin, Miss Guang, is also ...... the right age"

Makoto's first reaction was to hide his suddenly cold eyes: "Huh? Has the family already told Hikari about it? ”

It doesn't matter what you want, to be honest, Makoto doesn't care much about this aspect of things, and it's not a big deal to find a girl who looks pleasing to the eye to marry, but if the family forces to marry him and distorts the girl's mind, Makoto can't just ignore it.

Du Feng's example is in front, whether the forced marriage will make Hikari the next tragedy, Cheng is not interested in gambling.

"Of course not," Zhifu looked solemn, but if he looked closely, he could still see the closeness under his serious expression, and he said calmly: "But Miss Guang is also of the right age, and the family will start to marry the unmarried members of their generation in the near future, so you might as well ask, with your current status, you can already influence the family's decision, if you can let Miss Guang marry a satisfactory husband, it is also a good thing." ”

It seems that Tomoo mentioned it just out of good intentions, Makoto slowly put down the vigilance in his heart, looked at Tomoo's eyes, he nodded, and said, "I'll ask her when I go back, if there is something to ask you about this, please bother more when the time comes." ”

Zhifu smiled: "It's just a matter of seeing the outside world, it's just a gesture, but this matter is only in the past few days, you still have to answer me quickly." ”

Having said that, just 19 years old this year, she has indeed reached the age of being married by the family, and I don't know if she has a promising young man in her eye?

After going back, you must find the light and ask carefully, Cheng secretly decided in his heart.

But the light seems to be very busy on the festival, Makoto didn't see her for a whole day, and after asking Qingxi many times to no avail, seeing that the sky has darkened, Makoto can only go to Qimu's house first.
