Konoha's Bizarre Adventure

Is this bad old man who looks like he's about to die... the holder of the highest power in the Fire Country, the Fire Daimyo Madoka Hidemitsu?

The moment the old man came in, Hinata and Tonegawa immediately stood up from their stools, bowing their heads to wait for the daimyo's arrival, showing very standard subordinate etiquette.

"Excuse me, excuse me, please sit down, both of you."

But after seeing Hinata and Tonegawa, the somewhat feminine old man showed a kind smile, waved his hand very kindly, and motioned them to sit down quickly.

Frankly speaking, if Tonegawa hadn't repeatedly reminded that this daimyo is not a good thing before, Hinata would have been fooled by the kind expression on his face, it was a fake smile as natural as breathing, presumably after dozens of Years of tempering out.

"Thank you, Your Highness Xiuguang."

Before taking a seat, Hinata nodded to him, and then gracefully sat back on the stool, but her gaze was still looking over there without a trace.

"You seem to be...Kazun's granddaughter, right? Your name is Qianhua. She is really good-looking. She has such grace at such a young age. It's so rare."

When he saw that this girl, who was at least years old, showed such a calm and generous attitude in front of him, Yuan Xiuguang couldn't help but look at her a few more times and complimented her casually.

To be honest, Yuan Xiuguang didn't think highly of that uncle Hyoudou Kazun, although the latter could be regarded as the king of the underground in the Fire Kingdom, but the smell of copper all over his body made Xiuguang very displeased.

The reason why I wanted to invite these two guests to dine together on a whim today is simply because the research on the "elixir" has made some progress, and two "distinguished guests" will come to Daming City tomorrow, so It was just a matter of whim, Xiu Guang didn't have much hope at first.

However, Yuan Xiuguang couldn't help showing a "kind" smile when he saw this young lady who was young but had an excellent demeanor and an extremely beautiful appearance.

"Your Highness is overrated. Qianhua is just following the teachings of her grandfather."

Even though she was being stared at by that slightly weird look, Hinata's expression did not change at all, and she still had the smile of a young lady.

This old man seems a bit strange. How should I put it, I always feel that his eyes are not looking at people as people, but at the appearance of certain objects.

"Okay, it's time to serve."

At this moment, Yuan Xiuguang finally turned her head and glanced at the maid aside.

"Yes." As the maid stepped back slowly, after a while, dishes that looked delicious and delicious were brought up.

Yuan Xiuguang is the master of Daming Mansion and the Fire Country, so the dishes that can be put on his table are naturally extraordinary. Almost all of them are made on site by directly inviting the most famous chefs in the entire Fire Country.

In front of Hinata and Tonegawa, wagyu hotpot seasoned with sansho pepper, boiled natural eel from Lake Daimyo, high-grade matsutake soup from the north, ice-cold sashimi of various fresh fish, and desserts were quickly placed. A table filled with water, misi yokan, etc. looked luxurious and gorgeous.

"These dishes are all personally designated by me, including "five flavors, five colors, five methods". The five flavors are spring bitter, summer sour, autumn sweet, and winter sweet. , dim yellow, the five methods refer to steaming, roasting, boiling, frying, and raw, isn’t it very particular.”

When Yuan Xiuguang saw the lady began to slowly taste the delicious food on the table, Yuan Xiuguang slowly explained to her while eating slowly.

With money and power, Yuan Xiuguang has obviously passed the stage of nouveau riche and become a real nobleman for so many years, which can be seen from his choice of cuisine.

Eating is not just for the sake of eating, but it is integrated with the atmosphere of art and becomes a feast for the eyes, tongue and soul. This is Yuan Xiuguang's food philosophy.

"As expected of His Royal Highness, the taste is very elegant."

Hinata also smiled and gave a very positive response when she heard the words, and seemed to enjoy it very much.

Well, the eldest lady doesn’t seem to like the look of this meal. But although Madoka Hidemitsu couldn't tell, Tonegawa sitting next to her could see Hinata's state at this time.

She is using chopsticks made of white jade to pick up a small amount of food into her mouth in small pieces, and then chewing slowly. Although she looks very elegant, it is not difficult to find that her attention is not focused on the food at all superior.

Huh, what is very particular, it is simply a table of luxurious pig food, just suitable for their kind of pampered pigs.

After taking a few mouthfuls slowly, Hinata couldn't help picking up the cup and rinsing her mouth, and at the same time frowned secretly, feeling a bit boring.

Compared with this kind of so-called "feast" where a lot of delicious ingredients are deliberately made into a look that normal people can't afford, Hinata still prefers the oden that he and Didara had before. , the feeling of warmth and fullness is definitely not comparable to these seemingly luxurious things that taste cool.

In this slightly embarrassing atmosphere for Hinata, Madoka Xiuguang, who had been drinking for three rounds and had a few drinks, suddenly asked: "Qianhua, what do you think of this famous mansion?"

"Very good, serious and tidy, clean and generous." Hinata put down the beautiful small teacup in her hand and said with a smile.

A place where filth is hidden, a farm dedicated to raising pigs.But she secretly complained in her heart.

"Very good." Yuan Xiuguang was obviously more satisfied after hearing what this young lady Qianhua said, and he continued: "Then you can live here, and just treat this place as your home from now on."

"Well, Your Highness Xiuguang, this is..."

After listening to the daimyo's words, Hinata didn't have any special reaction, but Tonegawa next to him seemed to stand on end.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Uncle Hezun's granddaughter is equivalent to mine... mine... my niece. In this case, what's the problem with letting her live here? Your Majesty won’t mind.”

This time, Yuan Xiuguang glanced at Tonekawa with a meaningful look, and the latter immediately lowered his head involuntarily, but his legs under the table trembled slightly.

Oops, I remembered that this guy Yuan Xiuguang especially likes to collect some useful "chess pieces" and then use them to win people's hearts.

Thinking of this, Tonegawa immediately understood what this fire name wanted to do.

He had heard from Hyoudou Kazun before that Yuan Xiuguang married all his daughters and granddaughters into families that were beneficial to him, including high-ranking officials from the Land of Fire, famous wealthy families, ninja bosses, etc. Anyway, this seemed to him It is the same act of kindness as giving gold, silver and jewelry.

In this case, none of the daughters or granddaughters can stay at home until adulthood. Almost all of them will be married off when they are twelve or thirteen years old, and the marriage partners are usually middle-aged people in their decades. , even an old man in his seventies or eighties.

This guy wants to keep Hinata here, and most likely he plans to train her as a tool for the next marriage... This is too bad.

"Your Highness Xiuguang, I'm sorry, this matter is really..."

"Tonegawa, go and send a letter to grandpa, saying that I will not go back for the time being."

Just when Tonegawa tried to irritate the Daimyo-sama and refused, Hinata tugged on his sleeves under the table, and then said with a smile: "Since the Daimyo-sama is so loving, then Chika will naturally be here more. Stay for a while.”

"Okay, very knowledgeable about current affairs and very smart." After hearing "Qian Hua", Yuan Xiuguang's face that had been a little downcast suddenly became brighter.

Her appearance and bearing are excellent, if she is cultivated for another four or five years, this girl will definitely become one of the most useful pawns in my hand, hehehe.

"Come here, arrange Miss Qianhua to rest in "Zhuji"'s room."

"Yes."

When Yuan Xiuguang gave the order, the two maids immediately came over to help the eldest lady and brought her to the deepest part of the Daming Mansion.

It's all right, don't worry.When Hinata stood up, she slowly gestured to him, and then walked out leisurely.

The Daimyo of Fire... I don't know what the so-called guy is. He wants to train me to be his tool. This seems to be too small.

If this is the case, then leave him an unforgettable lesson as the price for underestimating Miss Ben.

Before leaving the restaurant, Hinata slowly looked back at Yuan Xiuguang, who was still sitting there chatting with Tonegawa, with a playful look in her eyes.
