C2300 Face and Heart Don't Match

Wang Xiao was a little unhappy with what the Great Elder said. It sounded like he wanted him to stay here for a few days before leaving the family and not staying in the Zhou Family.

Although the Great Elder didn't say it explicitly, that was what he meant.

Madam frowned unhappily. The Great Elder really doesn't know how to speak. Furthermore, Madam was sure that the Great Elder had said those words on purpose to get Wang Xiao to leave.

The patriarch was slightly unhappy as well, but it was just a matter of face. That was why he could not say anything. However, he absolutely wouldn't allow such a thing to happen. If the Great Elder wanted his position as the Patriarch, he could fight for it with him.

However, if the Great Elder wanted to chase Wang Xiao out of the Zhou Family, it was impossible, absolutely impossible. No matter who it was, they couldn't chase Wang Xiao out of the Zhou Family. The other party was his enemy, and he wouldn't hesitate to attack.

Wang Xiao smiled and said, "Great Elder, you are being too polite."

"You are being polite, aren't you? Gang Master Wang, may I ask if I have said something wrong?" The Great Elder looked surprised, as if he didn't know what he said or what he shouldn't have said.

Wang Xiao said, "Great Elder, since I am a member of the Zhou Family, I will naturally stay in the Zhou Family for as long as I want. I will leave whenever I want to. If you want to come, you can come as you wish."

Great Elder said with a smile. "Right, right, look at me, I'm really confused. At such a time, I actually treat you as an outsider."

Many members of the Zhou Family just looked at Wang Xiao quietly. Although the patriarch and the Great Elder were in a heated argument, many members of the Zhou Family still didn't want to get involved in this matter.

They only wanted to live a peaceful life. As for the competition between the patriarch and the Great Elder, they didn't want to interfere or interfere. In their opinion, the most real thing was to live a stable life.

A big family like the Zhou Family. Some people had evil intentions and were unwilling to accept the current situation. There were also some who only wanted to live their own lives and live their own lives. Wang Xiao met Zhou Fuloong in the crowd. He was the son of the Great Elder.

Zhou Fuloong was also a genius of Zhou Family, and he was also a Celestial Rank warrior.

He saw Zhou Fuloong standing behind the Great Elder, looking at him with a dissatisfied expression. Because of his argument with the Great Elder, Zhou Fuloong and Wang Xiao were unhappy.

Of course, even if what happened just now didn't happen, Zhou Fuloong would still be unfriendly to him. Zhou Fuloong raised his eyebrows, not hiding his emotions at all.

Wang Xiao just looked at him casually and then looked away. Although this guy was a genius of the Zhou Family, and also a Celestial Rank warrior, to be honest, Wang Xiao didn't put him in his eyes.

If he was a little more honest, it would be fine. However, if he wasn't honest, Wang Xiao wouldn't mind taking care of him. In any case, it wasn't like he hadn't dealt with Celestial Rank warriors all these years.

A Celestial Rank warrior was a supreme existence in the eyes of others, a very powerful existence. However, in Wang Xiao's eyes, a powerful warrior of this realm wasn't anything special.

Apart from Zhou Fuloong, Wang Xiao also saw Zhou Xian.

Zhou Xian really had a big opinion of him.

Because of Xiao Yun, Zhou Xian must hate him to death.

"Xiao'er."

The madam called out excitedly and walked to Wang Xiao. She looked very excited and lost her composure. Ever since Wang Xiao entered the Zhou Family, she had been wanting to see me for a long time. She didn't even want to wait a minute.

Because of the rules of the Zhou Family, Madam had no choice but to hold back her longing for Wang Xiao. At this moment, her child was standing in front of her. Madam looked at Wang Xiao with a gentle gaze. After reaching out her hand, she held Wang Xiao's hand.

Wang Xiao felt a little awkward about Madam's actions because Madam was holding his hand in front of so many people. Although his wife was his mother, she was still of the opposite sex.

"Xiao'er, you have worked hard outside these years. I have let you down and failed to take good care of you. " But don't worry. From now on, I won't let you suffer. " From now on, I will protect you. No matter who it is, as long as they dare to harm you, they will be offending me. I will punish them severely. " Madam said.

When the madam said these words, it was as if she had promised Wang Xiao. It was as if she was assuring Wang Xiao that she would protect and take care of him in the future. In fact, Wang Xiao had already grown up and become a powerful person. He no longer needed that kind of protection.

When the Great Elder, Second Elder, and the others heard Madam's words, they could see that their expressions were a little unnatural. Because Madam's words were a warning to them in secret that they should not harm Wang Xiao. Otherwise, Madam would not hesitate to attack. However, Great Elder and Second Elder were not afraid of Madam's warning.

It was because they even dared to plot against the position of Patriarch. In other words, if they were not even afraid of the Patriarch, would they be afraid of Madam? They did not feel guilty at all.

The patriarch just stood beside Wang Xiao and looked at Wang Xiao with a smile on his face. He wanted to say something, but for a moment, he did not know what to say or how to say it.

"Patriarch, it's time. Let's go in." At this time, the Great Elder said expressionlessly.

Seeing the patriarch's family reunion, He really didn't feel good. In any case, it was very uncomfortable. If Wang Xiao was not the child of the family head and was just the child of an ordinary member, then it would be fine. Even if he returned to the Zhou Family, it wouldn't be a big deal. At most, it would just increase the population. However, Wang Xiao was the son of the patriarch. The meaning was different.

When he returned to the family, there would definitely be a lot of troubles in the future. Because Wang Xiao came back this time to fight for the position of patriarch with him, how could the Great Elder be happy?

"Everyone, let's enter the Ancestral Hall." The Patriarch said in a clear voice.

The clan chief's voice was like a great bell, resounding through the vicinity of the ancestral hall. Under the orders of the patriarch, the clan members all made their preparations.

The Patriarch was the first to step out. It could be seen that he would be the first to enter the ancestral hall of the family.

"Xiao'er, let's go." The madam held Wang Xiao's hand and walked side by side with Wang Xiao. When Madam held her hand, the warmth in her palm seemed to spread throughout her entire body.

Wang Xiao also seemed to have felt the warmth from Madam's body. It was so familiar. It made people feel at ease and want to rely on others. Over the years, Wang Xiao had never thought about what it felt like to have parents.

It was because he had never had parents over the years. Wang Xiao did not know who his parents were. Finally, he found his parents and returned to his family. He still had to acknowledge his ancestors and return to his family.

Although he had been in the Zhou Family for two or three days, Wang Xiao did not feel like he had returned home. It was as if everything here was so unfamiliar, as if this place did not belong to him at all.

However, it was different now. When Madam held her hand, The moment his mother held his hand, Wang Xiao felt as if he had returned home. His heart was filled with warmth.

Ta, ta, ta.

Ta. Ta, ta, ta, ta.

..

Under the lead of the patriarch and his wife, the members of the Zhou Family entered the scarlet gate one after another. When they entered the scarlet gate, what appeared in front of them was a huge courtyard.

The courtyard was very large. There were birds singing and flowers blooming inside. There were fake mountains, lotus ponds, exotic flowers and so on. The courtyard not only had a beautiful scenery, but it was also extremely quiet. Because there was no one living here, it was very quiet. However, the ground in the courtyard was very clean. Except for a few leaves that occasionally fell, the ground was almost spotless.

It seemed that although this place was very remote and quiet, the Zhou Family would arrange for people to come here and clean it up at any time. After all, this was the ancestral hall of the family, a place to worship the ancestors of the family. Therefore, they had to clean it thoroughly and not cause any trouble.

The ancestral hall of the family. Not every family had a ancestral hall. Not every family had one. For those ordinary families, there wasn't even a place for living people to live in. They didn't even care about ancestral temples or ancestors.

The moment Wang Xiao entered the courtyard, he felt that the air inside was very fresh, comfortable, and refreshing. This was a courtyard house, but it was many times larger than an ordinary courtyard house. The buildings, layout, and scale of the courtyard house were all built according to ancient times. In particular, the man-made scenery inside was even more unique.

The layout of this place, The scenery here was better than any other place in the Zhou Family. It seemed like the Zhou Family viewed this place as an important place to worship the ancestral tablets of their ancestors. This had something to do with superstition. The people of Huaxia Country generally believed in superstition.

From the leaders to the ordinary people, almost all of them believed in superstition. If anyone became rich, they would build their ancestral graves and cultivate their ancestral temples. They would pray that their ancestors would continue to protect them and let their wealth and wealth continue. It would be best if they passed on their wealth to their children and grandchildren.

Even the big families of the Zhou Family were no exception. They also believed in superstition.

The courtyard was huge. Although there were a hundred people, it didn't seem crowded at all.

After the hundred people of the family entered the courtyard, there wasn't any noise. Everyone was very quiet. Except for the sound of footsteps, no other sound could be heard.

Because this was the ancestral hall of the family, the entire Zhou Family would regard this place as their sacred land, the resting place of their ancestors. Therefore, no one was allowed to make any noise here.

Even those who were scheming and scheming, those who had a bad relationship with each other, once they gathered in the ancestral hall and paid their respects to their ancestors, they would let go of their hatred and temporarily let go of all their disputes and grudges. If there was anything wrong, they would go outside to settle it.

If they fought to death outside, not many people would care. After all, the Zhou Family was huge and had many people. It was normal for conflicts to occur. However, fighting in the ancestral hall was an act of disrespect to the ancestors. Not only did the patriarch not agree, but the other clansmen also did not agree.

"Xiao'er, don't be nervous." The madam said to Wang Xiao in a soft voice.

In fact, Wang Xiao wasn't nervous at all. He didn't feel nervous at all. In fact, he didn't need to be nervous at all. What was there to be nervous about? He just needed to return to the Zhou Family. Wasn't it just a ceremony to acknowledge his ancestors? Did he need to be nervous?

If he didn't care about anything, he wouldn't be nervous. Wang Xiao didn't care about acknowledging his ancestors and returning to his family. The reason he returned to his family was because of his parents, so he wouldn't be nervous.

If he really cared about the Zhou Family and really wanted to return to it, he would definitely be nervous under such circumstances. The patriarch lowered his head and walked towards the middle hall with a serious expression.1

The middle hall of the courtyard house, which was the memorial tablet used to worship the ancestors of the family, was used to worship the ancestors of the Zhou Family. However, after the death of ordinary people, the memorial tablet was not qualified to enter the ancestral hall.

After all, the Zhou Family was so big and had such a large population. Almost every month, there would be people dying and dying. If every dead person had a memorial tablet, the ancestral hall would have long been unable to accommodate them.
