It was only after Uzumaki Kushina's reminder that Uchiha Yuzuru remembered.
Fugaku had mentioned to him not long ago that he was getting married.
Thinking of this, Uchiha Yuzuru smiled: "I've been a bit busy lately and completely forgot about it."
"Luckily, Mikoto and I already prepared everything for you in advance."
"Go change quickly."
Uchiha Yuzuru was pushed into the room by Uzumaki Kushina.
Not long after, when Uchiha Yuzuru emerged, dressed in his new clothes, Uzumaki Kushina and Uchiha Mikoto clearly froze.
He looked quite handsome.
Seeing their expressions, Uchiha Yuzuru felt a little self-absorbed.
When it came to looks, he truly hadn't been impressed by anyone, except for those readers who enjoyed novels.
"Alright, let's go quickly."
Uchiha Yuzuru took one hand of each, pulling Uchiha Mikoto and Uzumaki Kushina towards Uchiha Fugaku's house.
Upon arriving at Uchiha Fugaku's home, many people had already gathered in the courtyard.
Third Raikage, Ay, Sakumo Hatake, Dodai, and others were chatting together.
Uchiha Taro was bustling about the yard, looking radiant and full of cheer.
The group immediately gathered around Uchiha Yuzuru upon seeing him.
"Yuzuru, Kushina, Mikoto, welcome, welcome!"
"Old Clan Chief, it's true that good news lifts one's spirits! You look much better than before."
Hearing Uchiha Yuzuru's words, Uchiha Taro stroked his beard and laughed heartily: "Yuzuru, ever since I stopped being Clan Chief, I've had far fewer worries, and my energy is much better."
"This is all thanks to you."
Hearing this, Uchiha Yuzuru shook his head: "You should thank your son instead; he's the one handling all the clan's miscellaneous affairs now."
"Thank him? I still want to hit him!" Uchiha Taro snorted, "That guy dragged his feet until now to get married; he almost drove me mad!"
Uchiha Yuzuru rubbed his nose, not replying.
Third Raikage, however, sighed with a sense of shared feeling: "Clan Chief Taro, I understand your feelings perfectly."
"At least your son is getting married today, but my son doesn't even have a partner yet!"
After saying that, he casually slapped Ay on the back of his head.
Ay ran off to the side, feeling wronged.
He couldn't understand the older generation's thinking; was marriage really that important?
They nagged and nagged all day; it was so annoying!
Seeing Ay run off, Uchiha Taro smiled and said: "Third Hokage, Sakumo, if you ask me, you two should also seize the time while you're still relatively young and find someone, don't wait until you're old men like me and are willing but unable."
"How did this turn to us..."
Uchiha Yuzuru watched with great interest from the side; why did it feel like the atmosphere of Chinese New Year in his previous life?
While they were chatting, Uchiha Fugaku walked over, holding a woman's hand.
The woman's features were delicate, and she looked very serene.
Although she wasn't as beautiful as Mikoto and Kushina, her looks were still very good.
"Third Hokage, Senior Sakumo, Yuzuru... let me introduce you, this is my wife, Uchiha Misa."
"Greetings, esteemed sirs."
Third Raikage waved his hand: "No need to be so formal; we are here today as friends to attend your wedding."
Uchiha Fugaku smiled and nodded, then looked at Uchiha Yuzuru: "Yuzuru, you should be coming of age after this month, right?"
"What do you say? The clan has always encouraged early marriage and childbirth; as Clan Chief, you should set an example!"
Hearing this, everyone began to tease him.
Uchiha Yuzuru wasn't shy at all and laughed openly: "I'll definitely get married before the end of this year; everyone come and drink my wedding wine then."
"Good!"
The more Third Raikage saw Uchiha Yuzuru, the more he liked him, and the more dissatisfied he became with Ay.
He looked around, then turned to find his son for a "heart-to-heart talk."
——

The wedding continued until late into the night, and everyone drank to their heart's content before dispersing.
Uchiha Yuzuru, fueled by the alcohol, went to Uchiha Rika's house for tea.
Inside the room, Uchiha Rika and Uchiha Yuzuru sat facing each other.
Uchiha Mikoto and Uzumaki Kushina waited on their left and right, respectively.
"Yuzuru, tea."
"Godfather, have some tea first."
Uchiha Rika drained his cup of tea, then looked at Uchiha Yuzuru, a hint of drunkenness in his eyes: "Time flies so fast; the little brat from back then can almost drink me under the table now."
Uchiha Yuzuru smiled and refilled Uchiha Rika's cup: "Uncle Rika, you're absolutely right."
"I'm coming of age soon, and today the old Clan Chief was even urging me to get married quickly."
Hearing this, Uchiha Rika chuckled lightly: "I knew you, kid, had no good intentions."
"Don't worry, you just need to set the date, and I'll handle the rest."
Uchiha Yuzuru had lost his parents when he was young, so Uchiha Rika had essentially looked after him.
And now he was marrying his daughter, so Uchiha Rika might as well handle the wedding arrangements himself.
Hearing Uchiha Rika's stance, Uchiha Yuzuru happily took out a red envelope from his pocket and placed it on the table.
"Uncle Rika, this is a small token of my appreciation."
Looking at the red envelope, Uchiha Rika became a little displeased: "Yuzuru, what is the meaning of this?"
"Why are you giving me money? Do you think I'm selling my daughter?"
Uchiha Yuzuru explained: "Don't worry, Uncle Rika, it's not much money; it just represents my sincerity. You have to let me show my appreciation somehow."
After hearing Uchiha Yuzuru's explanation, Uchiha Rika finally nodded: "Alright, then I'll accept it, and I'll return it to you after you get married."
With that, he picked up the red envelope from the table.
But the next second, Uchiha Rika looked a bit confused and rubbed his head: "Yuzuru, why did you take out two red envelopes?"
——

The next day.
Uchiha Yuzuru walked out of Uchiha Rika's house with dark circles under his eyes.
Although tired, Uchiha Yuzuru had a smile on his face.
After a night of effort, he had finally convinced his future father-in-law.
Now, he just had to wait for the wedding, and Uchiha Mikoto and Uzumaki Kushina would both become his wives simultaneously.
Thinking of this, Uchiha Yuzuru couldn't help but wave his hands wildly.
Awesome!!!
After venting for a while, Uchiha Yuzuru felt refreshed.
He went to the breakfast shop owned by Uchiha Yuriko, devoured a meal, and then headed to the dessert shop outside the clan compound.
"Boss, ten skewers of dango, please."
"Coming right up, please wait a moment."
Uchiha Yuzuru paid and prepared to find a seat.
Unfortunately, the dessert shop was bustling, and every seat was taken.
Just as Uchiha Yuzuru was about to stand and wait, a little boy, who looked only four or five years old, waved at him.
"Clan Head Yuzuru, over here."
Uchiha Yuzuru glanced over and couldn't help but freeze.
That garlic nose... why did it feel so strangely familiar?
