C2302 Acknowledge Your Ancestors and Return to the Family
Grandfather must have had high hopes for himself. Therefore, when he learned that he could not cultivate in the future, he could not accept reality and was abandoned.
The patriarch knelt in front of the memorial tablet and said a lot of things. Wang Xiao did not listen much anyway. He just kneeled on the ground in boredom, feeling like he was going to sleep. To be honest, Wang Xiao really wanted to stand up and leave the temple because it was too boring. Especially the gloomy feeling in the temple. It made people feel very uncomfortable and uncomfortable.
Although the ancestral hall was clean, because there was no one living here, it looked gloomy. No matter how luxurious the room was, no matter how clean it was, if no one lived here for a long time, it would still look gloomy.
After the clan head spoke, the Great Elder continued to speak. It was nothing more than welcoming him back to the family. From now on, the Zhou Family would have another member.
When the Great Elder said these words, Wang Xiao could see how fake and fake he was. His sinister face revealed an extremely reluctant expression.
The Great Elder was also in a difficult position to put into words. In fact, he didn't want to return to his family at all. However, in the ancestral temple, when he was paying his respects to his ancestors, he still had to say those words with his conscience. It was easy to imagine how complicated and depressed the Great Elder was feeling.
After the Great Elder finished speaking, some of the higher ups of the Zhou Family also said a few words to each other. This delay lasted for two to three hours. Many of the young people in the ancestral hall were also bored to the point of wanting to leave.
Actually, not only were the young people feeling bored, the other higher ups and elders also felt extremely bored. They also really wanted to leave, but they had to abide by the rules.
After everything was over, it was Wang Xiao's turn.
Wang Xiao had nothing to say about the current spirit position of Zhou Family. After all, those people had died long ago. What was the point of talking to these wood tablets?
He actually had this kind of mentality. He was truly the unfilial descendant of the Zhou Family. However, Wang Xiao didn't feel guilty because he didn't have a good impression of anyone other than his parents in the entire Zhou Family. If it wasn't for his parents, he wouldn't have bothered to come back. He didn't want to return to such a scheming family.
Although Wang Xiao didn't want to say anything, he didn't have anything to say. However, he still had to go through the motions. Even if he had to put on a show, he had to do it. He didn't want to be accused. Furthermore, since he was already a member of the Zhou Family, he had to abide by the rules of the Zhou Family. If he didn't show any respect and seriousness in the temple, his parents would be in a very passive position.
The Great Elder and the others were eager to make a mistake. As long as they made a mistake, they would seize the opportunity to make a big fuss and then find trouble with their parents and condemn them.
After casually saying a few words to these memorial tablets, Wang Xiao was going to officially kneel down in front of the ancestor spirits of the Zhou Family in front of his parents and the elders of his family. There were many rules in a big family. Without rules, there would be no rules. Although what he said was right and very reasonable, if there were too many rules, they would be very rigid and bound by the rules.
The poorer a family was, the fewer rules they had. The more prestigious a family was, the more rules they had. For example, if an ancient emperor wanted to marry a queen, there were so many rules that it gave people a headache. Ritual of heaven and earth, ancestors, rituals, etiquette and so on. There were probably over a hundred of them. And they had to be busy for a few days from start to finish.
If it was just an ordinary family, everyone would meet and have a gathering. They would invite their friends and family to come, and after they finished eating and drinking, they would disperse.
Madam stood in front of Wang Xiao and saw her looking at him with a face full of excitement. Because Wang Xiao was going to kneel down and call her mother. She had been waiting for this day for too long. Even Madam herself could not remember. She had been waiting for this day for a long time. However, Wang Xiao had finally returned to the family and their side.
Therefore, although she had waited for many years and paid a great price, it was all worth it. As long as Wang Xiao could return to their side and return to the family, she would be satisfied.
Wang Xiao hesitated for a moment, then he knelt down on both knees. "Mother."
When Wang Xiao knelt on the ground and called her mother personally, Madame's eyes were filled with tears and excitement. Her eyes were filled with tears.
In her mind, Madame seemed to have seen what had happened in the past. When she recalled the past, she could still clearly remember which night it had happened.
That night was a night that she could never forget in her entire life, nor could she dare to forget. She remembered that when she woke up in a daze, she discovered that the child had disappeared.
The child had actually disappeared. At that time, she was very anxious and afraid, so she looked for her husband. Her husband, the current clan head. However, at that time, her husband was not the clan head.
When Madam found her husband, she received a piece of news. It turned out that under the orders of her father, the child was abandoned. To Madam, this news was like a bolt out of the blue. At that time, she had fainted. After she woke up, the madam had frantically searched for the child. She had searched the entire world for the child, but the world was so big, so where could she go to find the child?
Her wife fell down in anger. From then on, her body became worse and worse. After that, her husband became the patriarch. After that, her husband's father, who was also her father-in-law, Wang Xiao's grandfather, had a problem with his cultivation. She remembered that her father had repented in his heart when he was dying. He should not have treated that child like this.
Madam clearly remembered that her father held her hand tightly when he was dying and kept apologizing to her. I'm sorry, I beg her to bring the child back.
Even if the child was a piece of trash and could not cultivate, he was still a member of the Zhou Family and his grandson. At that time, Madam had promised her father that she would bring the child back. Although the madam knew very well that it was as hard as ascending to the heavens to find the child back. After all, she had spent so much time over the years, yet she was still unable to find the child's whereabouts.
However, seeing that her father was about to die and was about to leave, Madam could not bear to make her father suffer. She did not want her father to leave with endless regret, so she agreed.
After receiving Madam's agreement, her father let go. At that moment, Madam's heart was icy cold. In the past, she hated her old father. If it wasn't for her old father, how could she have lost her child? However, the moment her old father left, the moment his father died, Madam gave up all her hatred. She didn't really care about her old father.
After all, her father had already left. Even if she still hated him, what was the point? Moreover, she knew that her father was the patriarch of the Zhou Family and he was under a lot of pressure.
After his father left, his wife and the patriarch continued to look for the child. However, for many years, they had never been able to find the child's whereabouts. Her body was getting worse and worse, like a candle in the wind, as if it would extinguish at any moment. When Madam lost all hope, when she thought that she would never see a child again in her life, a miracle finally appeared.2
Her child actually managed to get to know her. The world was so big, yet there was such a coincidence. It was too coincidental. It was so coincidental that it made people feel that it was not real. It was as if it was fake.
Hualala!
Tears were still flowing in Madam's beautiful eyes. Drops fell down her cheeks. Only at this moment did she truly put it down.
The clan head saw that his wife was only focused on crying, so he reminded her, "Madam, wake the child up. Since the child has already returned, don't feel too bad."
Under the patriarch's reminder, his wife came back to her senses. She noticed that Wang Xiao was still kneeling on the ground. She had sighed before, so she was actually immersed in the sadness of her memories.
"Xiao'er, get up quickly. You will be mother's child from now on. Mother will protect you with her life and protect you. She will not let you suffer any more. She will feel wronged." Madam held Wang Xiao's hand with both hands and said gently to Wang Xiao. Her voice was filled with great motherly love. A mother's selfless love for her child.
When Wang Xiao heard Madam's words, he was very touched. It was warm, even though he had grown up. Although he was a Celestial Rank warrior, all these years, he had become a Celestial Rank warrior. Due to Wang Xiao's lack of motherly love, he wasn't able to get more care from his parents. Therefore, his heart was empty. What he lacked was too much. Compared to ordinary people, he lacked too much. What Wang Xiao lacked was the care and care he received from his parents.
Although he lacked the care and care of his parents, his achievements far exceeded many people's. Perhaps if Wang Xiao had always been cared for by his parents, if he hadn't been abandoned, he wouldn't have had such accomplishments. However, who could tell the world clearly and who could predict it?
Many things could only be known after it happened.
"Thank you, mother." Wang Xiao thanked her.
"Son, get up. Get up quickly. We are very happy that you can come back to the family and forgive us." Madam supported Wang Xiao and helped him up.
Maybe it was because she was very excited. Wang Xiao saw that Madam's hands seemed to be trembling. His body was also trembling. Wang Xiao wanted to say something more to his wife, but he couldn't.
To be honest, he had never blamed his wife. He knew that his wife was weak back in the Zhou Family. She was weak and had no right to speak. When his grandfather decided to abandon him, his mother also tried her best to oppose him. She wanted to protect him. However, because his mother had no status in the Zhou Family, she was unable to protect him.
If Wang Xiao hated him, then he hated the patriarch even more. After all, his father was a member of the Zhou Family, so he definitely had more say than his wife. His words definitely held more weight than his wife's.
In the past, if his father's attitude had been more unyielding and firm, his grandfather would not have done that. However, these things had already passed. There was no meaning in bringing them up now.
Since these things had already passed, there was no need to continue bringing them up.
Madam looked at Wang Xiao with a smile of joy. Her expression was as calm as water, and her expression was very gentle.
"Xiao'er, quickly pay your respects to your father." The lady's gentle voice sounded.
Wang Xiao knelt down to the patriarch and said, "Father, please accept my bow."
"Good, good, good."
The patriarch said a few good words in a row. His body was trembling slightly. Perhaps it was because of his excitement, Wang Xiao had returned to the Zhou Family and his side. Due to his excitement, the patriarch's body was trembling slightly.
"Xiao'er, please stand up. I promise you that from today onwards, no matter what happens, you will be my son. " Now, in the future, and in the future, forever. As long as we are here, no one will be able to hurt you. "
