"I understand."
"As long as you remember. And another thing—that woman in your manor. If you like her, then marry her properly. If you don't, then don't let her go around calling herself the General's wife. It's a great breach of etiquette to call herself 'madam' when she isn't properly married or recorded in the clan registry," the Clan Leader admonished.
Xiang Minghou's expression shifted. The situation with the Liu woman was... complicated.
"Did you hear me? You can't be careless with the affairs of such a large manor."
"Yes, yes, I understand."
"Hmph. And don't you act like you don't want to hear it. It doesn't matter that you're the Great General. Even if your rank were higher, if you handle things improperly, this old man can still give you a talking-to." The Clan Leader had, after all, watched him grow up.
"I'm happy to listen. How could I dare not? Your teachings are right, old sir."
