Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 77, The Husband's Great Skills! Concubines are Allowed to Join at Will_1



...

Just as Sixth Uncle Wang Dinghai's wife, Mrs. Chen, led a handsome four or five-year-old boy over to pay their respects.

Wang Shihai's heart "thumped" in his chest, a feeling of dread instantly taking over.

Wang Shouzhe stepped forward, taking the initiative to pay his respects first, saying, "Shouzhe pays his respects to Sixth Aunt."

In every prominent family, the hierarchy of seniority is given utmost importance. Even if one is the Family Head or the Young Clan Leader, the necessary etiquette and respect when meeting elders cannot be neglected.

Even being a Family Head and Young Clan Leader, they should set an example for the clan members, maintaining the unity and harmony within the clan, and exhibiting good family traditions.

Think about it, if Wang Shouzhe, relying on his authority as the Family Head, or his significant achievements, disrespected his elders and didn't care for the younger ones, other clan members would naturally follow his example over time. As time passed, such a family would inevitably become divided and would gradually decay and collapse.

Mrs. Chen first paid her respects to the Old Ancestor, then slightly reserved, she made a bow toward Wang Shouzhe: "I pay my respects to Shouzhe." Subsequently, she nudged Wang Shoucheng, urging him, "Aren't you going to hurry up and pay your respects to your fourth brother?"

"I pay my respects to Fourth Brother." Wang Shoucheng's face was pale with nervousness, his voice milkily sounding out his respects.

The reputation of the fourth brother was rather frightening among siblings and younger generations. Especially for the children of the seventh or eighth generation, once caught by him, he would invariably test them...

If one managed to pass his test, rewards were expected. But if one was caught being lazy, that would spell trouble...he would remember you, keep an eye on you, constantly tormenting you... haunting even your dreams.

All of this came from what his older brothers and sisters told him...

"You've grown quite a bit in just the last half year, Little Nine." Wang Shouzhe wore a kind smile, and extending his arm, he lifted Wang Shoucheng and ruffled his hair, asking "You've started learning recently, right? How many characters have you learned? Can you do arithmetic yet?"

Standing beside him, the somewhat reserved Wang Shouming and Wang Luoqing suddenly stiffened, the gentle tone and caring attitude bringing them back to their "warm" childhood.

There had been numerous instances where they hadn't passed Fourth Brother's tests and then got a beating from their father Wang Dinghai when they got home, being greeted with their mother's crying and scolding for several nights.

"I, I've learned several hundred characters..." The young Wang Shoucheng was extremely nervous, swallowing hard as he spoke, "And I know some basic addition and subtraction."

The mention of this roused Wang Shouzhe from his sleepiness.

He proceeded to test Wang Shoucheng, and despite his nervousness, Shoucheng managed to answer every question which revealed the effort he had put into his studies.

"Well done, very good." Wang Shouzhe gave his approval, saying, "it seems that Sixth Aunt has been putting in effort educating you. Shou Ye was taught well in the past, and now Shoucheng is being brought up pretty well too."

While he was speaking, Wang Shouzhe even leaned toward Sixth Aunt Mrs. Chen: "Sixth Aunt, you have worked hard."

"Not at all, not at all, it's Shou Ye and Shoucheng who are diligent." Mrs. Chen's face was radiant, full of pride.

They exchanged a few more words.

Wang Shouming and Wang Luoqing exchanged glances, their faces full of awkwardness. They only praised Shou Ye and Shoucheng, completely ignoring them. The favorite child, the pampered baby, and the ignored majority in the middle.

After praising Shoucheng, Wang Shouzhe started introducing Wang Shihai: "Shihai, this is our family's ninth member of the Shou generation... this is Sixth Grandmother."

Wang Shihai's heart trembled, his nose tingling, he had already sensed trouble and had retreated, but Fourth Grandfather, you actually haven't forgotten about me, I'm so grateful to you!

But that's just how it is in a prominent family.

You can't ignore hierarchy just because someone is younger. Despite the tears welling up in his eyes, he kept a smile on his face, bowing his hand and said: "Shihai pays his respects to Ninth Grandfather, to Sixth Grandmother."

At this moment, Wang Shihai wished he could go home.

He really shouldn't have come alone, now all the attention was focused on him. Stay updated with My Virtual Library Empire

The next hour.

Wang Shihai didn't even know how he got through it, thank goodness prominent families don't have a tradition of kowtowing, otherwise, he would have been banging his head like smashing garlic!

Afterward.

Wang Shouzhe personally arranged for Wang Shihai's accommodation. Considering his young age and love for new experiences, he was lodged in a luxury hotel owned by the Wang family, in a top-floor suite.

This lakeside hotel was originally built for the Celestial Banquet held in honor of Old Ancestor Longyan. It incorporates many of Wang Shouzhe's modern aesthetics from Earth. The top-floor suite, in particular, was furnished with luxury and cleanliness in mind.

Hot water was available round the clock, including ceramic bathtubs, ceramic toilets, a bright Array Illumination System, and large floor-to-ceiling windows offering a panoramic view of Zhuwei Lake.

Even the maids and attendants wore uniform clothing, thoroughly trained for their roles.

Everything was quite different from the traditional architecture and decoration style of Da Qian.

"Fourth Grandfather~" Wang Shihai felt as if he had entered a wonderland, everything felt fresh and new, "Why is this bed so bouncy? This ceramic toilet feels strange and is connected to the floor, how is the chamber pot supposed to be emptied?"

"The bed has springs underneath... as for the toilet and others, you can take your time to experience them." Wang Shouzhe said, "Push this bell, and a maid or servant will come to attend to you, you can ask them for instructions."

"You've had a long journey, rest for now." Wang Shouzhe said, "Later tonight, I've arranged a welcome banquet for you. I need to return to my home for a bit to deal with some affairs."
