Chapter 158: According to Seniority, You Should Call Her Aunt

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Mrs. Hou thought that Jian Xing’er didn’t know who Hou Cheng was, so she quickly went forward and explained, “I forgot to introduce him. He’s Junlai’s cousin, Hou Cheng. You can just call him cousin too.” Jian Xing’er nodded and didn’t say anything else. Hou Cheng could only smile awkwardly. Seeing that there was an awkward silence, Mrs. Hou immediately called everyone to take a seat and instructed the servants to serve the dishes as soon as possible. Jian Xing’er sat at the same table as Mr. Hou and Mrs. Hou, Hou Xiaoyu, and Zhang Changjiu. Hou Cheng sat at the table behind them. Hou Gui was sitting at the master seat at that table. Hou Qiang asked him in a low voice, “All Cheng, did you have any grudges with Jian Xing’er before?” Hou Cheng was puzzled and replied, “How is that possible? We’ve only met a few times in total. Why do you say that?” Hou Qiang replied, “Since she ignored you, it seemed as if you’ve offended her.” Hou Cheng frowned as he said, “I’m baffled as well.”

“All Cheng, you’re the heir of the Hou family’s inner clan, and you’ll become the head of the Hou family in the future. If you want your future to be easier, you have to build a good relationship with Jian Xing’er.” The head of the Hou family, Hou Gui, said earnestly, “Jian Xing’er isn’t an ordinary person. Even President Bai of the Provincial Chamber of Commerce stood up for her! Her abilities are extraordinary!” At this point, Hou Gui reminded his grandson, “You’re about the same age and have a place in the business world, so it’s not difficult for you to get familiar with each other! You have to take the initiative!” Hou Cheng replied, “Got it, Grandpa!” Hou Cheng nodded heavily before walking towards Jian Xing’er. Hou Cheng smiled and said to Jian Xing’er, “Sister-in-law, let me toast you…” Jian Xing’er asked coldly, “Sister-in-law? Who’s your sister-in-law?” Hou Cheng replied, “Of course it’s you! You’re Junlai’s wife, so you’re naturally my sister-in-law!”

Hou Cheng stood beside her awkwardly. Mrs. Hou couldn’t help but panic, since she was worried that Jian Xing’er would say in front of everyone that she wouldn’t remarry Hou Junlai. Once she said that, these Hou family members who were here to curry favor and her Big Brother, Zhang Changjiu… probably wouldn’t treat them so nicely anymore. It wasn’t easy for her to experience such treatment, so Mrs. Hou wasn’t willing to give it up. Mrs. Hou looked at Hou Qiang with a smile as she said, “Hou Cheng, you’re wrong. According to the Hou family’s genealogy, Junlai isn’t your brother, but your uncle, so you should call Jian Xing’er Little Aunt. Am I right?”

“That’s right, that’s right… But the inner clans and outer clans have long stopped categorizing seniority according to the family tree. Moreover, All Cheng is more than ten years older than Junlai. Isn’t it a little unreasonable for him to call Junlai his uncle?” Hou Qiang was a little embarrassed. He didn’t expect Mrs. Hou to use the family tree’s ranking to make a fuss. If it were in the past, she wouldn’t have dared to show off in front of the inner clansmen. How could he tolerate her talking to him like this?! But things were different now7. If they wanted to please Jian Xing’er, they couldn’t offend Mrs. Hou. Hou Qiang braced himself and tried to smooth things over, “Ah Cheng, quickly change your address. This is your aunt! Gu Yao also urged him softly, “No wonder Xing’er ignored you just now. It’s because you made a mistake in seniority and made your aunt unhappy!” Hou Cheng found it difficult to bring himself to call her that and looked at his grandfather.

Hou Gui nodded at him to express his attitude. Hou Cheng was indignant, but when he thought about how as long as he could wdn Jian Xing’er over, the Hou family would have a huge backer in the future, he couldn’t care less about his pride. “Little Aunt… I overstepped my boundaries just now7. I’m sorry,” Hou Cheng stammered. When Jian Xing’er saw Hou Cheng’s exasperated expression, she held in her laughter. Mrs. Hou was the happiest person present. The inner clansmen had always looked down on their outer clan. Now that she saw them suffer such humiliation in front of her, she felt very happy. Seeing that Jian Xing’er w7as indifferent, Hou Cheng could only bite the bullet and call her Little Aunt again. “Yes.” Jian Xing’er finally agreed this time. “Little Aunt, let me toast you. 1 hope you can be of more guidance in the future.” After Hou Cheng finished speaking, he drank all the wane in his cup..
