jinzhou city, liang family ancestral hall.
at this moment, the courtyard was silent. after all, liang sheng is still the eldest son of the liang family, and cannot be easily humiliated.
the person who had just whispered realized that they had said the wrong thing and did not speak again. for a short while, the courtyard became quiet once more.
as for liang sheng himself, there was no expression on his face at the moment, but there was no anger, only a bitter smile in his heart. after all, the other party was not wrong.
he was an innocent fool with a slow cultivation speed, a waste in their eyes. he could only hope that he would be able to live a life of leisure and wealth in this world.
just then, there was a sudden creaking sound.
the doors of the ancestral hall slowly opened.
walking at the front was the current patriarch of the liang family, liang ping, liang sheng’s birth father. liang ping’s face was expressionless, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
liang sheng was already prepared, but his heart was still somewhat uneasy, as the arrangement of his fate was about to begin.
“sheng’er…”
liang sheng immediately stepped forward and bowed, raising his head to look at liang ping, waiting for him to make the final arrangement for him.
behind liang ping were the influential figures of the liang family, the managerial clan elders. at this moment, their faces were serious, and there was no indication of what they were thinking from their expressions.
just then, liang ping’s voice rang out again, and liang sheng’s heartbeat could not help but accelerate. how he would be arranged, the result would be revealed immediately.
“today is your coming of age. from now on, you will follow your second uncle and learn to take charge of the family’s tavern business.”
as soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of the younger generation of the liang family lit up in an instant. however, they quickly lowered their heads, the flames of desire burning in their eyes.
with the eldest son liang sheng being officially removed from the line of inheritance for the position of patriarch, any of them now had the chance to occupy that position.
their fists were clenched tightly without them realizing it.
“sheng’er obeys father’s arrangement.”
for some reason, upon hearing his exact arrangement, liang sheng felt a sense of relief in his heart. perhaps this was already the best arrangement for him.
taking charge of the liang family’s outer sect tavern may not be that impressive for the main heir of the liang family, but it is still a prominent position in jinzhou city, ensuring a life without any worries of food and clothing.
liang ping looked at liang sheng’s calm demeanor and couldn’t help but take a deep look at his good-for-nothing son. he didn’t expect him to have such a temperament. what a pity…
as the liang family’s patriarch, he had devoted a lot of resources to his son in his early years, but he truly had no talent for cultivation. even an ordinary person would have broken through to the postnatal second realm by now.
however, this was also good. letting him manage the outer sect tavern could be considered to fulfill his father-son affection with him.
at this moment, liang ping turned to his brother, the current manager of the outer sect, liang qiang, and said, “second brother, i will have to trouble you from now on.”
“patriarch, don’t worry. i will teach sheng’er well and ensure a smooth transition of the tavern management.”
liang ping nodded and said nothing else, making his way towards the exit of the ancestral hall. the various managerial clan elders followed behind him.
before leaving, liang qiang specially waved at liang sheng, telling him to come to him when he was free, and that he would hand over the tavern’s affairs to him.
when liang ping left with the managers, the younger generation in the courtyard let out a sigh of relief. they looked at each other, their desires hidden by now.
“big brother, when i go to the tavern to drink in the future, you have to take care of me, your little brother!”
