Chapter 251 The wise man’s character begins
About an hour and a half later, Hinata Hiashi, who was training Hanabi, suddenly heard hurried footsteps approaching from afar, and then the sound came from outside the training room.

"Master Nizuzu!"

"Come in! What happened? Why are you so panicked?" asked Hinata Hiashi.

"Lord Hiashi, Miss Hinata has eaten up all the food piled up in the kitchen. Not only that, she also ate up the 20-minute barbecue that we bought." The visitor said with a slight breath.

"What?!" Hinata Hiashi couldn't help but widen his eyes after hearing this.

"Huh?!" Hua Huo on the side also opened her mouth wide.

"All the food in the kitchen was eaten up? What happened?" The elder beside Hinata Hiashi also asked.

"Well, why don't you go and take a look yourself, Lord Rizu?" the visitor couldn't help but say.

After all, it was difficult for him to describe what had happened, because he himself felt that what had just happened was a little unkind.

"Then go and take a look. Today's training ends here." Hinata Hiashi said immediately.

After all, he would feel uneasy if he didn't go to see her, after all, she is his eldest daughter.

If something really happened, like the eldest daughter of the Hyuga clan gave up on herself and starved to death, that would be extremely embarrassing.

When the group arrived at the kitchen, Hyuga Hinata was still sitting at the dining table near the door.

"Hinata, what are you doing?" Hyuga Hiashi couldn't help but ask as he looked at Hyuga Hinata who was still eating elegantly.

"Father, I'm hungry and am replenishing my energy." Hyuga Hinata put down the cutlery in her hand, stood up and bowed before answering.

"I heard that you ate up all the food in the kitchen?" Hinata Hiashi continued to ask.

"Yes, father, is there something wrong?" Hyuga Hinata asked her cheap old father in front of her.

After Hyuga Hinata finished answering, Hyuga Hiashi immediately rolled his eyes. After confirming that his daughter in front of him was not someone's transformation technique, and that there were indeed no ingredients hidden in the kitchen, he asked again: "Hinata, what happened? Why did you eat so much?"

What Hinata Hiashi wanted to ask the most was why he ate so much but his stomach didn't seem to be bulging at all.

"Father, I should say that I have never been full. So today I want to try what it feels like to be full. Father, can't the Hyuga family afford to support a daughter like me who loves to eat?" Hyuga Hinata asked back to Hyuga Hiashi.

"What nonsense are you talking about? You haven't eaten enough all this time? Why didn't you say that?" Hinata Hiashi asked with a frown.

"Father, I am the eldest daughter of the main family and must always pay attention to etiquette. How can I let you wait in the hall for me to finish my meal?" Hyuga Hinata said lightly.

"Hinata, you have changed!" Hinata Hiashi said after pondering for a moment.

"Yes, father, since you don't like the timid me, and the Hyuga family doesn't need the weak me, I want to try to change. And the change starts with eating enough." Hyuga Hinata touched her forehead with her hand while speaking.

"I'll wait and see!" Hyuga Hiashi, who understood the meaning of Hyuga Hinata's gesture, couldn't help but show a surprised expression, and then said calmly.

As for the meaning of that gesture, many people present understood it.

The position of the forehead means a bird in a cage!
In other words, Hyuga Hinata clearly expressed to Hyuga Hiashi that she did not want to be cursed with the caged bird mark.

"I will try my best not to let my father down. So everyone in the kitchen, go ahead. I'm already 80% full. Please try harder." After saying that, Hyuga Hinata sat back again.

Forehead.
Everyone who heard this couldn't help but look at Hinata Hiashi.

"Let her eat enough, and have someone prepare enough food every day." Hinata Hiashi made the decision immediately.

Although he had already intended to give up his eldest daughter, after seeing Hinata Hyuga at this moment, he felt that he could give it another try.

After all, he has seen changes in his daughter that are different from the past.

For a thousand-year-old family, the inheritance system of the eldest son and eldest daughter will not be shaken unless it is absolutely necessary.

In other words, as long as Hinata Hyuga's performance can satisfy Hiashi Hyuga and the elders around him, she can regain the position of heir to the main family at any time.

However, on the other hand, Hinata Hanabi will also be engraved with a caged bird on that day.

Of course, before confirming Hinata Hyuga's identity as the heir to the main family, the training of Hanabi Hyuga and Hiashi Hyuga will not be neglected. After all, the training of the heir cannot be missed.

After the small farce, the Zong family mansion once again returned to its calm state.

However, rumors about the eldest daughter of the Zong family, whose appetite was comparable to or even greater than that of the Qiu Dao family, slowly spread.

Another hour passed,

When the kitchen staff were almost exhausted, Hinata Hyuga finally put down her chopsticks with satisfaction.

"Miss Hinata, Lord Hiashi is waiting for you in the study." After Hinata Hyuga walked out of the kitchen, a figure came in front of her and spoke.

"Xiaochun, have you been busy these two days? I haven't seen you." Hyuga Hinata asked softly in a soft and cute voice.

"The clan has temporarily arranged a compulsory mission." Hinata Haru replied with a somewhat stiff expression.

"If there is any mission to find you in the future, let the person who notifies you ask me first. Remember?" Hyuga Hinata said lightly.

"Yes, Miss Hinata!" Hinata Haru said loudly. After all, she was the maid who had always served the eldest lady of the main family.

She was very reluctant to be forced back to the branch family by the head of the branch family these two days. She originally thought that she would no longer have the opportunity to serve Miss Hinata, but she did not expect that things would turn around.

"Let's go to the study!" After saying that, Hinata Hyuga walked slowly in front.

After a while, Hyuga Hinata and Hyuga Haru came to the outside of Hyuga Hiashi's study.

"Master Hiashi, Miss Hinata is here." After arriving at the study door, Hyuga Haru stepped forward and spoke.

"Come in!" Hinata Hiashi's voice came from inside.

After getting permission, Hyuga Haru opened the Japanese paper door for Hyuga Hinata, and after Hyuga Hinata entered, he closed it and then stepped back a distance. On the other side, after Hyuga Hinata came in, she found that Hyuga Hiashi was not the only one in the study, but also another old man.

"Father, Grandpa, I wonder what's the matter with calling me here?" Hyuga Hinata took a few steps forward, knelt in front of the two men, and then asked.

"Hinata, your way of speaking and doing things are very different from before. Don't you have anything to say to me?" The old man asked Hyuga Hinata with a serious face.

"What does Grandpa want me to say to you?" Hyuga Hinata asked softly.

"I want to hear why you have become a stranger to others." While the old man was speaking, the veins around his eyes bulged, and for a moment the atmosphere in the entire study became extremely solemn.

"I didn't expect that grandpa could see through this." After opening her Byakugan calmly, Hyuga Hinata replied indifferently.

"Hinata, what do you mean?" Upon hearing this, Hyuga Hiashi's eyebrows twitched for a moment before he asked.

"I am Hyuga Hinata. The blood of the Byakugan can prove this, it is indisputable. But I am not the Hinata you know. Strictly speaking, that Hinata is my interpretation, not my true nature.

"And the me at this moment is the real me. It is precisely because I have never shown you my original self that today's sudden change will make you feel unfamiliar." Hinata Hyuga replied calmly.

"Deduced?!" Hyuga Hiashi understood every word Hyuga Hinata said, but after Lian Cheng's words, he was a little confused about human nature.

Not to mention Hyuga Hiashi, even Hyuga Hiashi's father was surprised after hearing Hyuga Hinata's explanation.

"Why do we have to perform? How could everything that happened in the past be an interpretation?" Hyuga Hiashi asked Hyuga Hinata in an incredulous tone.

"Because I feel that if I hadn't portrayed a cowardly Hinata, I wouldn't have survived until now." Hyuga Hinata replied slowly.

"Who dares to threaten the life of a member of the main family?" Before Hinata Hiashi could speak, the old man next to him couldn't help but lose hope.

After all, if what Hyuga Hinata said is true, it would be terrible.

You should know that until two days ago, Hinata Hyuga was still the eldest daughter of the main family and the future first heir of the Hyuga family.

Anyone who dares to attack Hinata Hyuga is a provocation to the Hyuga family.

"The Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen!" Hyuga Hinata said lightly.

"Uh..." The old man's anger suddenly stopped when he heard this.

"How could it be the Third Hokage?" Hyuga Hiashi asked Hyuga Hinata with a puzzled tone.

"Why couldn't it be that old immortal monkey?" Hyuga Hinata said lightly.

"Hinata, I want to hear an explanation." After hearing his daughter's evaluation of the Third Hokage, Hyuga Hiashi opened his Byakugan and looked around and said.

"Well, the explanation is that I'm too smart. So smart that when I was three years old, after seeing Uncle Hizashi being forced to death by the village, I realized that the family was at a clear disadvantage facing the village.

If I show my talents, given the old monkey's style, one day I might be taken away by his vicious dog named Danzo and disappear without a trace.

Especially after Hua Huo was born, I became more worried about this problem. After all, even if the main family lost one heir, there was still another one, so the inheritance would not be cut off. And since the family had retreated once in front of the village, it might retreat countless times in the future.

So I need a character that can help me grow up safely. So what character can make that monkey feel at ease? A cowardly and kind-hearted young lady is pretty good. After all, I have fooled you guys, so it is impossible that I cannot fool that old monkey."

After hearing what Hyuga Hinata said, an indescribable expression appeared on Hyuga Hiashi's face.

As for the old man beside him, he also had a complicated expression.

After all, the death of his youngest son by the village was not a sorrow that the old man could easily forget.

And that day was also a day of shame for the Hyuga clan.

Once upon a time, the Hyuga clan was famous during the Warring States Period and even before the Warring States Period.

Who could have thought that there would come a day when I would be humiliated like this by a piece of trash from a small family.

But now was not the time to grieve over the past. The old man quickly pulled himself away from the sad memories and asked, "Hinata, you were only three years old at that time. How could you think of so much?"

Both the old man and Hinata Hiashi were a little bit unconvinced of this.

“I didn’t think too deeply about it at first. I just felt that my family couldn’t give me a sense of security, so I instinctively pretended to be weak to be safer. After I learned enough information, I decided to maintain the image of a cowardly and kind person until the last two days.

In fact, if my father and grandfather had not stated that they wanted to deprive me of my status as the heir to the main family, I would have planned to maintain this for a while, until I felt I had enough strength to protect myself, and then I would slowly adjust and reveal my true self.

It's a pity that you are a little impatient, and the attitudes of the family members have changed too quickly in the past two days, and I don't want to be like my cousin Neji, a bird in a cage, with no control over life and death, otherwise I would have to be so anxious to let you see a different me." Hyuga Hinata explained slowly.

After listening to Hinata Hyuga's words, Hiashi Hyuga couldn't help but look at his father. He was a little at a loss at the moment.

Facing his son's gaze, the old man was unable to give any good advice for a moment. After all, he himself felt that what his eldest granddaughter said was a bit mysterious.

But the Hyuga family's bloodline cannot be faked, so as long as there is no problem with the identity, then even the most incredible answer is the only truth.

"Ahem, since Hinata you say you are very smart, it just so happens that there is a problem that I, your grandpa, have not been able to solve. I wonder if you can give me an answer." The old man coughed slightly, adjusted his tone and then spoke.

"Grandpa, please speak." Hyuga Hinata replied obediently.

"The Uchiha clan was suddenly wiped out a few years ago, and your father and I have been worried ever since. I wonder if you have any good ideas?" The old man asked Hyuga Hinata.

"Is it just this question?" Hyuga Hinata asked Hyuga Hiashi and the old man.

"Isn't this question enough to demonstrate your intelligence?" the old man asked.

"Well, how should I put it? Let's talk about the problem of the Uchiha clan first. In fact, the Uchiha clan was destroyed entirely because they were too arrogant and too stupid. If I were the head of the Uchiha clan, I would probably be planning to seize the position of the next Hokage at this moment." Hyuga Hinata answered confidently.

"Hinata, the Uchiha clan has irreconcilable conflicts with the village, otherwise the clan would not have been exterminated." Hinata Hiashi couldn't help but remind.

After all, in his opinion, his eldest daughter seemed a little arrogant.
