As their brother-in-law and sister-in-law, they watched in awe.
Was their brother-in-law so powerful?
Such terrifying power, not to ntion Yuanqiang, even the firstborn of the direct line, Yuanhui wouldn’t match it.
So…
Yuanrui was completely convinced and said with a bitter smile, “Brother-in- law, let Yuanqiang down. He’s still young, don’t scare him.”
“Alright.”
The phrase “he’s still young” caught Wang Shouzhe off guard and nearly deflated him.
With a loosening of his hands, he gently set the burly Yuanqiang on the ground. He handed him a red envelope, and pat his shoulder: “Yuanqiang, go and play.” “Thank you, brother-in-law.”
Yuanqiang happily hugged his stone ball and ran off cheerily, soon disappearing in the distance.
After this round, people’s view of Wang Shouzhe had changed sowhat, now tinted with awe and admiration.
anwhile…
The maid Qiao’er, who had been standing at the end of the corridor, was also flushed with excitent. She imdiately turned and ran back to the courtyard at a rapid pace.
“Miss, the new brother-in-law is amazing! Such great strength, even Young Master Yuanqiang can’t match.” She excitedly recounted what had just happened to Ruolan.
Wang Liuzi, the fourth aunt, joyfully comnted, “Indeed, the finest steed in the Wang family, my nephew Shouzhe, is extraordinary.”
“The new brother-in-law’s strength is so great?” The two middle-aged beauties were slightly taken aback, then smiled suggestively, “Our Ruolan is indeed fortunate.”
At this mont, the bride Ruolan, who was quite smart, had a blank look on her pretty face.
Of course, having a strong husband was great, but how did that connect with being fortunate? She was utterly puzzled.
At this ti, the maid Qiao’er, who had finished reporting, had already run out again to keep watch.
anwhile, in the courtyard…
Wang Shouzhe asked: “Yuanrui, isn’t it about ti? Can I go get your sister now?”
At this point, Yuanrui had recovered from the shock. He continued to smile and said in response: “Brother-in-law, I’d love to let you through, but it depends on whether the younger brothers and sisters agree.”
Speaking, he looked at the brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law standing behind him.
The younger siblings imdiately got energized and shouted in unison: “We disagree! We’re not satisfied! Brother-in-law, take another round!”
“Alright- Whatever moves Yuanrui has, just bring them on. If I can do it, I will. If I can’t, I will admit defeat.”
Wang Shouzhe understood that just one round might not be enough to handle these lively rabbit kids and girls.
“Brother-in-law is so bold!” Yuanrui laughed, “Then don’t bla for being rude.”
“Our prominent Xuanwu family are pioneers. What’s the purpose of our lives? To eat, of course. My sister is marrying into the Wang family, she might as well have so at to eat. Brother-in-law, isn’t that right?”
“You’re right.” Wang Shouzhe agreed.
“And how do we get at? Of course, by hunting. Our ancestors of the Xuanwu family survived by hunting, and archery is most important in hunting. So, brother-in-law, let’s see your archery skills.”
Wang Shouzhe really wanted to say that at could also be obtained by farming, but to comply with Yuanrui he swallowed his words.
“Okay, I would appreciate it if Yuanrui could provide with a bow and arrow.” Wang Shouzhe was quite confident about his archery. His archery had always been excellent, and after awakening his bloodline, it improved rapidly.
This point, not only did he not understand it himself, even the Old Ancestor was a bit stunned. However, his strength was still inferior to that of explosive war bodies and his archery was also not upto the level of so innate godlike archers.
In any case, he was strong in all aspects, but he was not the absolute strongest in any of them.
Unexpectedly, Yuanrui started laughing again: “What’s the point of just demonstrating archery? I have already arranged for a competitor for brother- in-law.”
With that, he clapped his hands twice.
As his applause subsided, a thin figure rolled in from outside the fence.
He stepped in the air several tis, his movents were outstanding. Within a few breaths, he landed in front of Wang Shouzhe.
Wang Shouzhe scrutinized him. He was thin and refined, but his face was sowhat wretched. A quiver of arrows hung at his waist, and a bow on his back, showing that he was an expert archer.
However, this man seed too mature, probably in his forties.
Wang Shouzhe was surprised and hesitated: “Yuanrui, is this also a younger brother?”
Yuanrui shook his head: “Not exactly.”
He calmly looked at him: “Yuan Shan, why don’t you introduce yourself to my brother-in-law?”
The slender man nodded and greeted Wang Shouzhe politely: “Greetings, brother-in-law. I am Liu Yuanshan, forty this year, and unmarried.”
He emphasized the word “unmarried” to specify his eligibility to participate in this ga.
“Ummm… This…”
Wang Shouzhe sweated profusely.
This elder brother was honest, but being unmarried at forty didn’t seem to be sothing to brag about, was it?
“Is my brother-in-law’s expression implying you’re despising ?” Liu Yuanshan’s glanced at Wang Shouzhe regretfully.
“How could that be?” Wang Shouzhe laughed, “Brother Yuanshan, joining the ga to add color to my wedding, that’s welcoming.”
“In that case, let’s start the next ga.” Yuanrui chuckled, “Brother-in-law, please see, there are so copper coins hanging over there.”
He spoke and pointed to the other side of the courtyard, indicating for Wang Shouzhe to look in that direction.
Wang Shouzhe glanced over, but saw nothing.
He gave Yuanrui a suspicious look: “Where?”
“Look a bit further.”
Yuanrui continued to grin broadly.
Wang Shouzhe looked again, still seeing nothing.
“Even further.”
As if anticipating Wang Shouzhe’s reaction, Yuanrui leisurely added.
Wang Shouzhe looked further along his direction, finally spotting a couple of large copper coins hanging from a tree about thirty feet away.
Before Wang Shouzhe could say anything, Chen Fangjie gasped: “Yuanrui, aren’t you being too brutal? Leave a bit of face for your brother-in-law.”
Despite his words, he quietly signaled his approval with a thumbs-up: Good job.
Yuanrui shot back an equally triumphant look, appreciating Chen’s advice by letter.
Then, the two broke into a knowing grin, as if victory was already in their hands.
