Chapter 505 Wang Family Rules
It is not unreasonable for the shock of this family. It turns out that although he is dressed as a servant, he is actually a member of the Wang family. He is not just an orthodox. However, he has received a good education since childhood and has some knowledge of all the various religions. As the saying goes, when a leaf falls, he knows that autumn is coming. Just from the military literacy of the more than 300 people led by Du Jia, he feels a strong sense of threat and murderous aura. In comparison, the imperial army I have seen before is like a naughty boy who just learned to walk, and he is compared without fighting.
No wonder Liangshan's fame has spread so quickly in the past or two years. Although the people of the Wang family are arrogant, they are not stupid. They are naturally very impressed by those who are capable. On the one hand, this old man is a little sorry for his previous arrogance, and on the other hand, he also expressed some respect to Du Jia. He hurried in and summoned him, and then more than a dozen boys appeared soon. They brought out many tea, snacks and other things and put them outside the door, and invited these personal soldiers to eat.
Seeing the kindness shown by the Wang family, the captain of the guard looked much better. He stood up and bowed, "Thank you for the hospitality, but we are soldiers. Mr. Jia only asked me to wait here. He did not say that we can disband and eat and drink. Please take back the goods. We appreciate the kindness."
The hometown even sighed that the four words "superior orders and prohibitions" are simple, but they can be spontaneously done and are so rigorous that they are so rigorous. It would be rare if the officers and soldiers did not take the initiative to ask for things. From this, it can be seen that Du Jia's strict governance of the army is enough to be comparable to some famous teams recorded in historical books.
Du Jia didn't know that these things were happening outside the gate. He and Gongsun Sheng and Pei Xuan walked into the gate, then passed through two outer courtyards and then came to the real main courtyard. The so-called central axis of the standard manor was three in and three out, so the Wang family naturally would not miss this rule.
There were already dozens of people waiting here. The leader was about forty years old, with kind-hearted eyebrows and a green essay robe. When Du Jia came over, he bowed slightly and said, "In the Wang family, the current head of the Wang family. We welcomed them very much, but due to the rules of the ancestors, we were unable to come out to welcome him. I hope Du's master would forgive me."
Du Jia and others were puzzled. Judging from the attitude of the old family at the door at the beginning, the Wang family could be said to be extremely arrogant, but he was quite humble when he heard the words of the head of the family. What was going on? It would be understandable if it were an ordinary family. It was very common to treat people with a rude first and then, but as the Wang family, he should not do such a villain with different opinions.
Gongsun Sheng came forward to ask for advice. An old man next to the Wang family patiently explained the various reasons in detail. It turned out that the Wang family in Langya had emerged since the Eastern Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period. His ancestors also had high officials of the three-public level, especially for their good calligraphy. When Wang Xizhi and the King of Xianzhi of the Jin Dynasty reached their peak, they were also humble and concessions. In addition, the Wang family has always been humble and concessions and did not fight with other families. Therefore, it has been passed down for seven or eight hundred years, and has gone through many dynasties. No matter who is in power, he still gives some face to the Wang family. After all, he has also been a famous family of "Sage of Calligraphy".
Therefore, the Wang family is also very strict in the family style, especially forbidding the children of the disciples to curry favor with the powerful and powerful, and they are even more inclined to join various parties. Therefore, the ancestors had a family rule that if guests visited, the whole family would be allowed to go out to greet the gate. The princes and the third princes or other first-rank high-ranking officials or other big-ranking heads of the family are in the second gate, the county princes and the Shangzhu Kingdom and the core elders of the other big-ranking families are in the third gate, and the rest can only be in the third gate at most.
As the eight core family rules of the Wang family are carved in the family ancestral hall, and they can be said to be enforced. In fact, the descendants of the Wang family have taken this to the extreme. Almost officials below the third rank will not send people to greet them when they come. They don’t go out to the three doors, just waiting for the other party to come in. What, do you think our Wang family is arrogant? Then you just leave. Our Wang family is still so arrogant. If you like to come, we will never try to keep them.
So for hundreds of years, people who are familiar with the Wang family have already known the Wang family rules. Those who are not of sufficient level and status will simply stop looking for humiliation. The Wang family can also be purified, so that the children can study with peace of mind. As for whether they are willing to become an official, they only have one thing. Even if the children of the Wang family must strictly abide by this rule. Even if you go out and do well, you are just a child of the Wang family. When you meet the elders, you should be respectful and polite. No matter how great you are, can you still be as good as the "Sage of Calligraphy"? If you have the ability, you should also pass on the world.
Although Du Jia is now considered a figure in Qingzhou, firstly, he is not a court official or a family member, and secondly, he has no fame. What, do you say a scholar? Sorry, you can brag about it outside, and it seems to be a scholar, but this is only the most basic requirement in the Wang family. Even a boy of eleven or twelve years old can easily pass the scholar, and even several servants are there. You are so arrogant in the Wang family that you are a scholar, just like boasting about being a Chinese football team in front of football players in other countries, it is simply a humiliation.
That's why although he was only welcomed by the third sect, the head of the family Wang Familyzhi was able to bring people out in person, which was enough to respect Du Jia. Even when Murong Rongda came to visit the Wang Family, he just sent an elder to greet him casually. Wang Familyzhi even made excuses not to see him.
After hearing these, Du Jia and the others suddenly realized it. All the doubts and slight dissatisfaction in their hearts disappeared. Du Jia clasped his fists and smiled: "So that's it. It seems that we are rude, and we know very little about the family rules of our family. We are really ignorant. Please don't be surprised."
Du Jia’s current mindset is extraordinary, so he doesn’t care about false reputation and face. It’s right or right, and if it’s wrong, apologize immediately. He doesn’t think there is anything to be ashamed.
