As a general, she cannot be a good daughter of Kage.

Xiaomiya, who seemed to be looking at her in a daze, approached her cute tilted head in confusion. The sudden appearance of that pretty face under her sight made her a little confused. She immediately subconsciously took half a step back and used her kimono furisode to make a very feminine gesture. He made a shy gesture of covering his mouth.

"...///"

The moment Xiao Gong saw her seductive gesture, he blushed subconsciously, then smiled awkwardly and coughed a few more times.

"Ahem~ No, I'm sorry, did I scare you just now?"

the girl asked cautiously.

"Nothing...just getting used to it."

She also knew that her reaction was a bit strange, so she moved her furisode away to reveal her stunning beauty again, and explained to her.

"Then... let's go on?"

Xiao Gong changed the topic.

"Um…"

She followed.

After that, they came to a materials store at the end of the street. The person looking after the store was an uncle with a mustache.

"Hello, Morihiko, how is your business lately?"

Xiao Gong walked over to chat as usual.

"Haha~ Xiao Gong, I guess it's you girl. I'm not exchanging pleasantries. Is she looking for fireworks materials? I left a bag for you, the quantity must be enough."

"Really?!"

After hearing Moriyan's words, Xiao Gong's eyes lit up!

"Isn't it true? Every time when the fireworks are approaching, you always ask around to see if there are any ore materials that you need urgently~! They have been prepared for you. You girl always likes to do some unplanned things."

Morihiko held up his arms with a proud look.

"Yeah, but I'm sorry... I bother you every time, I'll give you a discount next time~!"

Xiao Gong felt a little embarrassed at being said so and rubbed his head.

"Look at what you said. There's no need to be polite in our relationship. If I don't do business, you have to help me. Well...this is -"

The other party looked at the general like the previous one.

"Her friend."

This time it was the general who answered for Xiao Gong.

"Oh...well, why haven't I seen it before?"

The other party wondered.

"Just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean it doesn't exist, right?"

the general asked silently.

"Uh... Yeah, that's right... Uh-huh!"

Morihiko smiled awkwardly at what she said.

However, she could tell that this girl was very popular in Hanami Saka, and almost everyone knew her. She could tell it from the tone of voice of several people.

"By the way, Mora gives it to you. I took the materials."

Xiaogong plans to pay.

"Oh no, no, no—! You can take it. I give these to you. You don't have to pay."

Morihiko excused himself.

"Then how?"

Xiao Gong retorted.

"You have helped me so much before, and I haven't repaid the favor I owe you. Don't care about this kind of thing, right?"

Morihiko planned to push back.

"A favor is a favor, and a business is a business. These are two different things~!"

Xiao Gong doesn't appreciate it.

"What does this have to do with it? Just accept it. You guys are in a hurry, aren't you? How time-consuming is it to have sex with me here?"

"Well - then... let's do this for now. You don't have to pay Maura. I'll keep it in the account book. If you come to my place to make fireworks in the future, you can use this discount."

Xiao Gong also knew that he was in a hurry, so he thought of this method.

"you--"

"No more 'bargaining'~!"

Xiao Gong put his hands on his hips and spoke to him in a somewhat dissatisfied tone.

"Look at you girl - oh - okay, this is quite good. Help me bring something good to your father. I wish him good health, all the best, and always be happy. Also, this lady... This girl is very sensible and well-behaved... I ask you to take good care of her together, uncle."

Morihiko looked at the general who was listening to the conversation between the two and asked her to be kind to her.

"Huh... Got it, feel at ease."

The general who came back to his senses nodded when he heard this.

"Oh~ what can happen to me///, don't talk too much...you should also pay attention to your health, don't work so hard, or the problem will recur."

Xiao Gong blushed when he heard this, and then he puffed up his face and gave instructions to Mori Yan who was leaving... and then shrugged with a helpless expression.

"Good popularity."

After seeing the other party leave, the general looked at the people around him who were teasing him with a smile.

"Eh? Uh-huh...nope...it's just an occupational disease. To sell fireworks, you have to be familiar with them, otherwise your business will be affected."

Xiao Gong was embarrassed when she said this, but his face showed the joy of being praised.

In fact, she admires people with skilled social experience, including Xiao Gong, Ayaka, and Xin Hai... Although she knows that the so-called 'social experience' of the other two are forced by fate, Or maybe it has to be done.

She has always believed that such people will become great people in the future... At least having enough connections is a rare good thing.

Of course, she herself was a different story... She had always felt that except for Shin, there were few people in the Raiden family who were really good at socializing.

"What did he mean when he said he owed you a favor?"

But before the two of them arrived at the blacksmith shop, she asked Xiang Xiaogong out of curiosity.

"Favor? Ah - Morihiko had a quarrel with his child before, and I heard it was quite violent. He complained to me about it when he saw me one time."

Xiaogong explained.

"So you reconciled the two of them?"

she guessed.

"Hmm... It's not so much reconciliation as it is that we understand each other, right? The two important people can talk to each other about their emotions."

"Then Morihiko always felt that the credit for this matter belongs to me. Without me, the two of us would not know how long the cold war would last. In fact, that is not the case. I am just playing a matchmaking role in the middle. It mainly depends on both sides. attitude, after all, relatives should understand each other and take care of each other."

Xiao Gong shrugged.

"…rational."

She slightly agreed.

"Are you always this busy?"

Looking at the girl working with a bag in front of her, she asked again.

"Huh? What do you mean?"

Xiao Gong was puzzled.

"Do you run around like this every year for the fireworks show? Going to houses to look for materials?"

She made it a little clearer.

"Yeah - almost. In fact, it is like this every year. Even if the number of fireworks to be prepared has been planned, there will be many orders that come in midway, so I need to make additional orders for these orders."

Xiaogong replied.

"Does that mean the batch you had before was already prepared?"

"Yeah, that's right...half of it was made by my father. He is obviously older but his techniques are several times faster than mine. Not only is it fast, but the quality is also high. Alas, I can't compare."

Xiao Gong spread his hands and smiled.

Afterwards, Yi Xiaogong said that he wanted to go to a blacksmith shop to process the ore on his hands. After processing, he could start making. And the blacksmith shop he was looking for was the 'Tianmu Blacksmithing House' - this The most famous blacksmith shop in the family is none other than Inazuma. It is said that the owner of the shop, Master Tenmu, is a descendant of one of the five thunder and lightning legends in the past. His skills are first-rate. It is not difficult to guess from his last name that he forges the Tenmu series of knives. people.

"A Chuang, Mr. Tianmu, hello~"

Xiao Gong walked to the front of the forging house and greeted the two people inside. His tone showed that they were very familiar with each other.

"Ah, it's Xiaogong. If I'm not mistaken, it's about fireworks materials, right?"

Sure enough, A Chuang, who was blacksmithing, immediately guessed her purpose. He was really used to her running away like this every year.

"Yes, can you please hurry up?"

Xiao Gong nodded and discussed like this.

"Uh, I'm sorry, I also have a large number of weapons orders that haven't been completed yet. Can you wait a moment?"

The opponent was a little embarrassed. During the period, the general glanced at the bucket of unforged weapon prototypes behind the opponent. There were about a dozen of them. It would take about a day to just make the prototypes.

"It doesn't matter - ah... No, it doesn't matter at all. I'm in a hurry..."

Halfway through the sentence, Xiao Gong felt that it wasn't 'no relation' at all, it was very relevant!

"By the way! Do you need help? I'll help you finish the order for these weapons, and then you can help me process the ore, right?"

Xiao Gong came up with an idea that wasn't very good, or he might have said it out loud when his head got hot.

"You know how to forge?"

the general asked.

"Eh? Um...no, no way..."
