Fu family old residence.
In the council hall, Old Master Fu sat solemnly in the main seat.
The second and third branches sat respectively on the right side, while the left side was empty, clearly reserved for Fu Beichen's family.
Fu Sibo glanced at the empty seat opposite, his deep eyes slightly darkening.
The Fu family was a prominent family in Yong City, so the family rules were strict, and some of the etiquette and systems were passed down from the older generation.
Although the importance of legitimate versus illegitimate has faded in this era, it was still emphasized in the Fu family.
Fu Beichen was born of Old Master Fu's original wife, making him the legitimate eldest son of the Fu family, so his seat was on the left, considered honorable, while the second and third branches could only sit on the right.
As the saying goes, the emperor loves the eldest son, while commoners love the youngest, so from birth, Fu Beichen was the predetermined heir of the Fu family.
