''Bir erkek çocuğuna, kadın egemen bir evde büyümesinin etkisi nedir?''

I don't suppose anyone here reads Chinese lit enough to discuss tropes?
Currently reading an Ergen (I Shall Seal The Heavens), and the protag is this weird blend of greedy and uh, friendly exploitative? Basically leveraging friendships for gain. "Elder Brother you are truly a work of the gods, I applaud your ascension, in this way no one will ever pick on me again because we are such good friends" kinda thing.
The characters consistently do the same, and it's sort of played off as expected and positive.
Is this a negative trope? Is it positive friendships being fed through a localization wood chipper? Or is it a cultural difference where what I see as exploitative friendships really are meant to be seen as positive?
Like am I meant to earnestly like him as an honorable guy? Or is he meant to be more of a likeable racal?
