However, because of this grand wedding, many people who were originally working or on missions elsewhere returned.

It gave many old friends who hadn't seen each other in a long time a rare opportunity to get together.

Baiyun Qingye also visited the barbecue restaurant Q after a long absence.

After finishing his work for the day, he initially planned to walk there, since it wasn't far from the Hokage Building and he could experience the atmosphere of the village now.

But after walking along the road and feeling the enthusiasm of the villagers, he decisively used the transformation spell.

The transformation spell was only deactivated once they entered the private room of BBQ Q.

"Aoba, you're so slow."

Inside the private room, Sasuke, Naruto, Shikamaru, Choji, Kiba, Sai, and Shino and his group had already arrived.

When Naruto saw that Shirokumo Aoba had arrived, he immediately smiled and waved.

"You came too fast. I came here as soon as I finished my work at the Hokage Building."

Baiyun Qingye sat down next to him, indicating that she had arrived very quickly.

And there are still fifteen minutes until the agreed time.

Today was a long-awaited gathering of friends.

Or perhaps it was a bachelor/bachelorette party, since none of the girls came...

Offering blessings at a wedding is one thing, but as friends, we should definitely celebrate properly in private as well.

"It seems that being Hokage is not easy. In fact, he is so popular that he has to use the Transformation Jutsu to go out."

Kiba Inuzuka couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark upon hearing this.

"The main thing is the wedding. Now the whole village knows about it. We've only walked a few steps and many villagers have come to congratulate us. If we respond to each one, they'll crowd together and it will affect normal passage. So we'll just use a transformation spell."

Baiyun Qingye helplessly shrugged.

Given the current situation, the villagers may not be able to recognize all the brides, but the groom is very easy to recognize.

However, when his gaze shifted to the large dog sitting obediently beside him, sticking its tongue out at him, he paused for a moment.

"Was Akamaru this big a year ago?"

"Haha, it must be puberty. It's grown a little this year."

Kiba Inuzuka chuckled and ruffled Akamaru's hair.

"Woof woof~"

Akamaru immediately called out twice in a coquettish manner.

Baiyun Qingye: "..."

Has he grown up a little?

He remembered that at the pre-New Year's gathering last year, Akamaru was still being held on the head by Kiba Inuzuka.

Kiba Inuzuka can now ride on Akamaru's back.

Perhaps this is indeed how puppies develop.

"Getting married is really troublesome..."

Shikamaru also sighed, saying that just thinking about all the things to prepare for a wedding already felt like a huge hassle.

Then he looked at Bai Yun Qingye and said incredulously, "I just didn't expect that you would decide to get married so soon, Qingye."

He originally thought that someone like Bai Yunqingye would postpone marriage as long as possible.

After all, with so many people, sorting them is a very troublesome thing. If you can't treat everyone equally, the whole family will probably be in chaos.

But to everyone's surprise, the other party would come up with such an outrageous idea as getting married together.

It can only be said that he wants to learn it all, but he finds even dealing with one of them troublesome.

"Yeah, yeah, Aoba, you got married way too early. My mom kept nagging me about getting married every time I went home recently, so I've been hiding at Sasuke's house for days."

Naruto, standing nearby, nodded repeatedly, saying that Shirakumo Aoba's marriage was too early and too sudden.

"..."

Sasuke just rolled his eyes at Naruto's words.

Bai Yun Qingye suddenly realized something.

No wonder Kushina has been saying these past few days that Naruto doesn't go home at night and keeps coming over to stay at her house...

Baiyun Qingye now knows the reason.

However, he felt that Kushina was now somewhat indifferent to fate, and would only occasionally nag about Naruto and Sasuke.

They've already started trying to persuade Hong to lend her the child so she can take care of him.

Baiyun Qingye felt that he definitely wouldn't be able to learn it well.

As for Shikamaru's sentiments, he squinted again.

"Speaking of which, it's somewhat related to you, Shikamaru, and Choji."

"Ok?"

Shikamaru and Choji, who were already preparing to start grilling the meat, were both taken aback. "This has something to do with us?"

"Yes, I heard from Ino that you and Choji are already considering marriage."

This matter is somewhat relevant, at least it made Baiyun Qingye realize that she has actually reached the age for marriage.

After all, he had never considered this matter before.

That's why Mei Terumi readily agreed when she proposed marriage later.

"I knew Ino would tell you... but we've only just started dating, it's not that fast..."

Shikamaru touched his nose, somewhat helplessly.

"Huh?!"

At that moment, Naruto and Kiba both slammed their fists on the table and stood up simultaneously, letting out a gasp.

Sasuke, Sai, and Shino were also somewhat surprised.

Then Naruto and Kiba turned their attention to Shikamaru and Choji.

She accused the two of not telling them about this.

Shikamaru and Choji were also at a loss.

In the end, he punished himself by drinking three large cups of Coke before the matter was dropped.

However, Naruto didn't really care about his girlfriend; he was just a little surprised and simply joined in the teasing.

Sai is quite open-minded about this.

Sasuke, on the other hand, felt that his girlfriend would only slow down his sword-drawing speed.

Kiba Inuzuka, on the other hand, held Akamaru's head and muttered some complaints for a while.

Shino, who remained quiet throughout, looked at the insect in her hand, indicating that having the insect as a companion was enough for her.

"..."

Seeing this scene, Baiyun Qingye couldn't help but smile sincerely.

Many changes have occurred in the ninja world this year, but some things will never change.

None of the group members were big drinkers, so they ate barbecue and drank cola while chatting about things to be aware of when getting married.

Shikamaru and Choji originally wanted to learn from this experience, but after asking around, they realized that learning from it would be completely useless.

After all, Baiyun Qingye wasn't involved much in the wedding arrangements.

It has absolutely no reference value.

They don't have that many girlfriends to help them.

Shikamaru promptly changed the subject.

The time spent enjoying the barbecue passed quickly.

As the sun gradually set, darkness slowly enveloped the long streets of Konoha.

The group parted ways at the entrance of the barbecue restaurant.

There's nothing to be sad about; we'll see each other again at the wedding the next day.

Before leaving, Sasuke punched Shirokumo Aoba in the chest.

"Take good care of my mother!"

After saying that, he turned and left without giving him a chance to reply.

Seeing that Sasuke was about to disappear in just a few steps, Naruto quickly spoke to Shirokumo Aoba.

"Qingye, and my mom too. She must have gone to your house again. Please look after her for me. I'll be going now."

"?"

Chapter 883 The Grand Wedding (The End)

"?"

Even Shirokumo Aoba was momentarily confused by Naruto's easily misunderstood statement.

If someone else had said that, he would definitely have misunderstood something.

But Naruto's words...

He felt that the other person was probably oblivious and hadn't considered much of the implications.

He wanted to say something more, but Naruto had already caught up with Sasuke and they were nowhere to be seen.

Seeing this, Baiyun Qingye could only shake his head helplessly, then flashed back home.

The wedding is the next day, and the house is decorated very festively today.

The walls were covered with many "囍" characters, the four corners of the windows were decorated with paper-cut window decorations, and lanterns were hung at the main entrance.
