"Uncle Wu, Leader Chi, and the two leaders are being too polite!"
Faang Cheng smiled.
"No, this is not a courtesy!"
The chief shook his head seriously.
"I know that I do not have the qualifications to replace the people of the entire territory, but here, I want to do something that I overestimated myself. Because I know that what I want to say must be what the people of the wide seas think! I will replace all the people of the land... "Thank you!"
After saying that, the leader drank all the wine in the cup with his head raised.
"Thank you!"
All the Patriarchs also finished drinking their wine!
Faang Cheng knew that they were really thanking him. After knowing that it was possible that these things happened because of him, they still chose to thank him so much. He was a little touched!
"I will... I will do my best to protect everything in the vast ocean! "
Faang Cheng took Yu Yien and Lee Zhaowen and downed the wine in one gulp.
The meal that followed was very enjoyable. Everyone decided that the Master of the Mage and several other Patriarchs would decide on the day of succession. The sooner the better! However, it was a ceremony for the Territory Lord to take over the position, so he had to prepare for it.
Faang Cheng and Uncle Wu agreed that everything regarding the ceremony should be simplified. Faang Cheng's main purpose was to announce this news to everyone!
After discussing these matters, Faang Cheng stood up to bid farewell to the several Patriarchs because he still had to go to the Bai Clan. Since his foster father had died in an accident, he had to take care of a lot of things in front of him!
Since this matter was special, the Master of the Mage and the others naturally understood it. After sending Faang Cheng and the others to the door, they watched as they left!
Arriving at the gate of the house, he saw many white lanterns and white cloths hanging outside the house from a distance. There were also many black, coarse cloths on the ground.
Seeing that Faang Cheng and the others had arrived, many of the servants respectfully called them young master, but … The person they called him today was Young Master Cheng, not the previous Young Master Fang! Come to think of it … It should be because Madame Bai told them to! After Bai Family Head passed away, Faang Cheng, as his foster son, took care of his future affairs. Hearing him call him Young Master Fang always made people feel that it was a bit desolate, not to mention … He had indeed bestowed his surname and inheritance to his adopted son, so it wasn't a problem to call him Young Master Cheng!
"Yes, where's the Madam?"
Faang Cheng didn't care too much about it. He just asked to find out where Madame Bai was.
"Madam is entertaining guests in the main hall. Many relatives have come to offer their condolences!"
Faang Cheng naturally understood the little girl's words.
The Bai Clan was a huge clan. The death of the Bai Clan's Patriarch was the greatest funeral of their clan. Naturally, people from other branches came to offer their condolences!
However, this kind of scene … Faang Cheng didn't really like it. In this Bai Clan, Faang Cheng knew no one other than the Bai Clan Head, Madam Bai, and the Sixth Aunt, who loved to pick a fight! Faang Cheng had only known his foster father for a short while. Plus, his identity as the foster son who could inherit the family's business was a little special. Faang Cheng felt uncomfortable with this.
Actually, Faang Cheng knew clearly in his heart, the reason why no one came out to oppose the Bai family's head was because he was the one that the Bai family's head insisted on being the leader. Now that the master wasn't around, they looked at him … He might not be thinking the same thing in his heart!
Even so, Faang Cheng could only take a deep breath and walk towards the main hall.
From the moment he decided to take over as the Bai Clan's Patriarch, he already knew that he would encounter such a situation. Sooner or later, he would have to face it. It didn't matter!
Faang Cheng led Yu Yien and Lee Zhaowen to the main hall of the Bai Clan. Just as they reached the door, they heard the furious voice of a middle-aged man.
"What?" Let that foster son with another surname become the head of our Bai Clan? "I don't agree!"
The man's voice was immediately followed by a woman's voice.
"Big brother, you better speak properly. Third sister isn't a muddle-headed person. What she did …" It's probably because we have our own considerations, so let's talk it over slowly! "
The woman's voice was relatively softer, but it sounded like she disagreed with Faang Cheng taking over the position of the Bai Family's head!
"Hai, speak slowly? If he continued speaking slowly, then the Bai Clan would have another surname! What's wrong with you, Third Brother, and Third Sister-in-Law? Why did you have to recognize someone with another surname to be our White Family's adopted son? You can also inherit property? "I am truly confused …"
It was the man from before who spoke again. Although his tone was a bit softer, he was still firmly opposed to it!
"Aiya, didn't that Godly Doctor Fang save Third Sister-in-Law and the Bai Family several times?!" He can be considered the benefactor of our Bai Clan! But … Third sister, to make a man with another surname become the head of our Bai Clan … It is indeed a little inappropriate! "
Although the woman acknowledged that Faang Cheng saved the Bai Family, she couldn't agree to let Faang Cheng be the Bai Family's head.
"That's right!"
"Yeah, didn't this Bai family change their surname!"
The rest of the people chimed in.
"I can understand all of your worries!"
Madam Bai finally opened her mouth to speak. Faang Cheng wasn't in a hurry, so he just stood there and listened to what they had to say.
"But Cheng'er has already entered the family tree of my Bai family and is already my child. There is no doubt about this, so there is no need for the Bai family to change their surname. Also … The reason why I let Cheng'er be the Bai Clan Head was definitely not simply because he saved our Bai Clan. If we want to thank him for saving our Bai Clan, we have many ways to choose, using money and the shop to express our gratitude, but … Firstly, Cheng'er did not care about those things, secondly … "I am only thinking that Cheng'er has sufficient ability to take on the position of the Bai Family's Patriarch. This is the main reason why I chose Cheng'er!"
Madame Bai had always been calm and collected. Even with the death of the head of the Bai Clan, she only allowed herself to suffer for a day. At this moment, when Faang Cheng heard what she said, he was in a very wise and clear-headed state!
"This Madame Bai is really not bad!"
Yu Yien said in Faang Cheng's ear. Faang Cheng also nodded.
Speaking of which, he was quite impressed with Madame Bai, so the more Faang Cheng was like this, the more he wanted to help her!
"Sister-in-law, what you mean is …" The children of our Bai family … Isn't there anyone who can compare up to that Fang kid? "
The entire main hall immediately fell silent when he heard what the elder brother of the Bai Clan said. His words seemed to have touched the hearts of all the members of the Bai Clan.
That's right, why didn't he pass it down to the Bai Clan's children? It was as if the hearts of the Bai Clan were filled with loathing for these words!
