In fact, Hanako, as Shinichi Hinata's mother, could not help but notice his absent-mindedness. But it was precisely because of this that she hoped even more that Shinichi Hinata could choose a girl to develop a long-term relationship with.
Hanako knew all too well how strict the Hyuga clan system was. To be honest, she didn't want her son to be the kind of person who pursued "free love," because that would inevitably lead to a fundamental conflict between her son and the main clan system.
This would make things very difficult for her as a mother and for Hiashi Hyuga.
As parents, Hanako naturally hopes her son can find happiness and that he will marry someone he likes. Hiashi Hyuga likely shares the same sentiment.
However... as the main branch of the Hyuga clan, the couple had to uphold the clan's rules in this matter.
Hanako didn't want her son to have an irreconcilable conflict with her; she only hoped that this matter could be resolved peacefully.
It has to be said that Hanako went to great lengths for her son's marriage.
When Hinata Yui jumped out and questioned Hinata Shinichi, Hanako's heart was in her throat. But Hinata Shinichi's calm demeanor at this moment reassured Hanako somewhat.
Thanks to the efforts of many parties, the birthday party did not turn out in the worst possible way.
Hinata Yui's departure was merely a minor incident during the banquet. In fact, some members of her clan felt that her departure was a good thing, as it meant one less competitor.
As the banquet ended, Hiashi and Hanako, having seen off the members of the branch family, returned to the hall to inquire about Shinichi Hyuga's true thoughts:
"Shinichi, which girl do you have a crush on?"
"If it's confirmed... I'll ask her to be Hanabi's tutor. You can also take this opportunity to get to know her and get to know her better?"
Hanako saw the guests off and then, with a smile, inquired about Shinichi's true thoughts. Hiring someone to be Hanabi's tutor was merely a pretext; it was simply a way to give the young man a reason to get to know and interact with her.
Within the Hyuga clan, the women are mostly traditional and care a lot about their reputation.
"To be a fireworks teacher?"
"Haha, Fireworks has become my wingman?"
Shinichi Hyuga chuckled upon hearing this. Having figured out exactly what he wanted, Shinichi was quite at ease and even had the interest to joke about fireworks.
"wingman?"
Although he didn't understand what Shinichi was saying, seeing the smile on Shinichi's face and his light tone, Hiashi already knew that his son had made up his mind and made a decision.
"It's a bit early to say I'm interested."
“Mother, the girls are too young, and I’m not that old either. I think we should wait a few more years and see.”
In the Naruto world, girls in their teens are already of marriageable age, but in Shinichi's eyes, they are no different from little kids. After looking around, to be honest, the girls are all still immature, and none of them can make Hyuga Shinichi fall in love at first sight... no, love at first sight.
If love at first sight isn't possible, then it can only rely on a connection of souls. But these things always require getting to know each other, and right now, Shinichi really can't give a direct answer.
Upon hearing Shinichi's words, Hyuga Hanako's expression visibly changed. She had a feeling that this was just her son trying to brush her off. Just as she was about to speak, Hiashi quietly tugged at Hanako's sleeve and interjected with a smile:
"Is it too early?"
"Well, actually I don't think it's very reliable either."
"In my opinion, girls this age are not mature enough yet. It's not too late to consider this matter after a few years when everyone is more mature."
"but..."
"Shinichi, you should know that there are some things that can't be changed, right?"
"Your mother and I made plans for you early on, actually for your own good. It's easier to cultivate feelings if we set a goal early on, isn't it?"
“That’s how your mother and I got through it, and... there was true love between your mother and me! No one can question that.”
If anyone truly understands a man, it's only another man. Compared to his mother, Hanako, Hiashi Hyuga clearly knows better what Shinichi Hyuga is thinking.
While loosening the reins on Shinichi Hyuga, Hiashi was also subtly warning and reminding Shinichi not to attempt to challenge the clan's rules.
At the same time, she is using her own example to tell Shinichi Hyuga that there is no objective superiority or inferiority between the so-called "freedom" and "love" of today's young people and their traditional marital relationship.
Hiashi may have vaguely guessed that Shinichi Hyuga wanted to find someone he truly loved to marry, and at the same time, he was sharing his life experiences with Shinichi Hyuga without reservation.
Perhaps it's true that two people who fall in love and enter into marriage are truly in love, but who can deny that true love doesn't exist between couples who develop feelings for each other over time?
In essence, there is no inherent superiority or inferiority in the clash between different views on marriage.
Hiashi knew this clearly, and he also hoped that his son would understand and be able to comprehend it.
Hiashi's words did indeed resonate with Shinichi Hyuga. Even he hadn't expected that Hiashi would actually offer some useful guidance or advice on this matter. Even in today's information-saturated world, probably no one could view this matter with such "neutrality" as Hiashi.
In the era when Shinichi Hyuga lived, young men and women had long abandoned so-called traditions and believed in "free love".
While the body is free, whether a marriage based on "free love" is more stable than a traditional marriage, and more deserving of the title "true love," remains to be seen... only time will tell.
However, these things are not what Zhenyi is currently concerned about. As Zhenyi said, he is still young and there is no need to waste his energy on these matters for the time being.
Even his future safety isn't fully guaranteed yet, so Shinichi Hyuga really doesn't have the right to think about such things now.
Although he was reincarnated into the Naruto world during a "greatly oppressive era," Shinichi is not oppressed at all now.doge
The "Hyuga Heir Selection" incident, which generated considerable buzz in Konoha, ended in a way that didn't generate much discussion.
There were no rumors circulating about the Hyuga family, and Shinichi Hyuga's life didn't change much, so the villagers naturally forgot about this "hot topic" very quickly.
Everyone has their own life, and the lives of ninjas are even more fulfilling and busy. Moreover, new events happen every day in the ninja world and Konoha, and people's focus is constantly changing.
Peaceful times flow by in the midst of a peaceful life.
However, a peaceful life cannot always remain peaceful.
.....
Konoha 60 years.
Shinichi Hyuga's peaceful life was disrupted with the arrival of the new year's ninja academy graduation season.
Hmm... Shinichi Hyuga himself wasn't a student at the Ninja Academy. However, with the arrival of graduation season, another young man from his clan officially became a Genin and was assigned to a ninja team by Minato Namikaze.
If it's a distant relative, then it has nothing to do with Shinichi. It's just that this child who became a genin is Shinichi's younger brother, Hyuga Neji from his uncle's family.
Neji Hyuga was assigned to a team known internally as Team 3, led by Might Guy, Shinichi Hyuga's good friend. Neji's classmates also included two other students who had just graduated from the Ninja Academy that year: Rock Lee and Tenten.
Aside from the Jonin leading the team, the squad consists of two men and one woman, maintaining the traditional team formation of Konoha Village.
Neji is a renowned genius ninja among the younger generation of the Hyuga clan. His official becoming a genin and starting to carry out missions is a major event in the Hyuga clan and even in the ninja circles of Konoha.
Might Guy was thrilled to become Neji's Jonin mentor. Being able to become the Jonin teacher of the Hyuga clan's genius young ninja shows that Might Guy's strength has been recognized by the Hokage.
This recognition is the source of Matt Kay's excitement.
After becoming Neji's tutor, Guy thanked Minato for his trust and rushed to the Hyuga clan.
Instead of meeting Neji's father, Hizashi, he sought out the reclusive Shinichi Hyuga, hoping to learn from him what the Hyuga family's plans were for Neji's upbringing.
Although Neji is from the Hyuga branch family, his reputation as a genius has long been established. Moreover, as the clan head's nephew, Neji's status is ultimately different from that of other branch families.
Kai knew how much the Hyuga clan valued Neji. Although he was confident in his own abilities, he wanted to first communicate with the Hyuga clan to understand their "career plan" for Neji, so that he could formulate a targeted training strategy.
The best thing to do in this matter would be to ask Neji's father, but since Guy and Shinichi are acquainted, he would naturally ask Shinichi for information as well.
Kai's arrival also made the reclusive Shinichi Hyuga realize once again the "timeline" he was in.
Neji has become a genin... This also means that the so-called plot year is getting closer and closer.

"Shinichi, the reason I came to see you this time is to talk to you about Neji."
"The Fourth Hokage appointed me as the Jonin instructor of Team 3. Hyuga Neji and two other children were assigned to my team."
"I'd like to know what kind of plans your Hyuga clan has for Neji."
"Which of Neji's abilities should I focus on developing during the Third Squad's mission?"
Inside the tea room, Might Guy and Shinichi Hyuga sat by the window, discussing matters concerning Neji.
Since returning to Konoha from the moon, Shinichi Hyuga has kept a low profile, researching how to use the Tenseigan while also taking over some of the Hyuga clan's daily affairs from Hiashi Hyuga.
Life was ordinary, but it was also fulfilling and busy. As a result, for a long period of time, he spent much less time with his friends.
As everyone grew older, Shinichi Hinata and his companions all had their own careers and missions.
Just like Might Guy in front of us, after many years as a Jonin, he has long since shed his naivety and transformed from a reckless young Jonin into an experienced and steady mature Jonin. He is even trusted by the Fourth Hokage to guide the growth of the younger generation of ninjas.
Uchiha Shisui, who was closely related to Hyuga Shinichi, was also entrusted with an important task by the Fourth Hokage. A few years ago, he went to the southern border as a Jonin and led a 12-person elite team to monitor the movements of the Mist Ninja.
During Shinichi Hyuga's years of silence, Kirigakure was far from stable, with infighting among its leaders leading to several large-scale bloodshed incidents. Minato naturally took note of Kirigakure's internal instability and developed a wary attitude towards the village, thus dispatching his trusted advisor Shisui.
Throughout the history of the ninja world, countless times ninja villages have resorted to war to divert attention from internal conflicts when their internal political situation is unstable.
Once a powerful leader comes to power in Kirigakure, launching a war against other villages under the pretext of consolidating the strength of the various factions within the village and establishing their own authority becomes an excellent political tactic.
Konoha, which is relatively close to Kirigakure, has to be on guard against this.
Another close friend of the Hyuga Shinichi family, Uchiha Itachi, also had his own life. He had become a squad leader of the Anbu in his early years, carrying out secret missions for the Fourth Hokage. Now he was Minato's right-hand man.
Not to mention that Shinichi Hyuga rarely gets to talk to Itachi, even Itachi's younger brother, Uchiha, often needs one or two weeks to see his older brother.
Everyone has grown up, and the opportunities to sit down and chat or practice together like before are becoming increasingly rare.
The meeting with Kai today also has a strong "official nature".
In the tea room, Shinichi Hyuga stared absently at Might Guy, who looked solemn, and felt as if time was flying by.
In his memory, Kai was still the one who would shout about youth and charge straight at the enemy. He never expected that after not seeing him for a while, he would become so mature and composed.
