Chapter 189: Chapter 189 Returning to One’s Ancestors (Nine)

Xiao Min’s eyes widened in shock, staring at Madam Sheng Yue’s icy countenance, “No, it wasn’t like that, it was that wretched woman who broke my finger…”

Madam Sheng Yue scoffed coldly, “Xiao Min, at a time like this you still want to lie? My Yue’er is not as violent as you, and you should not attribute the troubles you caused outside to the Xiao Family. The strength of that person is too strong, our Xiao Family cannot afford to provoke him, and we will not provoke him for your sake.”

At that moment, how could Xiao Min not realize that Madam Sheng Yue was purposely exonerating Ruyue?

She clenched her fists in anger, the rage in her heart nearly consuming her.

The other elders, hearing Madam Sheng Yue’s words, could not help but nod in agreement; the young lady did not seem like such a brutal person. Instead, Xiao Min was arrogant and domineering, and it was not unlikely that she had caused some trouble outside and inadvertently provoked a strong entity, leading it to the Xiao Family to settle her account.

Actually, Madam Sheng Yue did not lie; the one who had broken Xiao Min’s finger was not Ruyue, but a small creature in her arms that appeared harmless to humans and animals.

So this could also be considered a strong entity that Xiao Min had provoked.

“Young Madam, are you blatantly spewing lies?” Xiao Yin’s face darkened, as he looked coldly at Madam Sheng Yue, “That woman broke my granddaughter’s finger, and I must have her compensate with two fingers, or else, I will certainly not rest!”

“Not rest?” Madam Sheng Yue laughed mockingly, her eyes icy, “Do you think you have the right? In this meeting that father has convened, apart from allowing Yue’er to acknowledge her ancestors and return to the family, there is another matter to announce. It will be my place to announce it on her behalf. From now on, Xiao Yin will no longer be a elder of the Xiao Family! I will expel the Xiao Yin lineage from the Xiao Family, never to be employed again!”

Expulsion from the Xiao Family was the harshest punishment.

It was clear that Madam Sheng Yue was furious to the extreme.

“You… you…” Xiao Yin stammered, his old face turning red as he pointed at Madam Sheng Yue, struggling to find the words, “Young Madam, don’t you think you are being too excessive? I have served the Xiao Family diligently for so many years, yet you want to expel me from the Xiao Family, what right do you have to do so?”

Madam Sheng Yue narrowed her eyes slightly, and laughed instead of getting angry, “Xiao Yin, have you forgotten my identity?”

The mistress of Holy Spirit Spring, ruler of the Saint Realm; did she not have the right to expel a person from the Xiao Family, even if it was just as the Xiao Family’s Young Madam?

Xiao Yin shuddered, his anger causing him to speak without thinking.

Madam Sheng Yue, was indeed a symbol of power in the Saint Realm…

“Xiao Yin, don’t think I’m unaware. Over ten years ago, it was precisely because you helped the Nangong Family that they found an opportunity to steal away my daughter. At that time, my husband alone, with a sword, challenged the Nangong Family. If not for you leading the opposition against him, perhaps the Nangong Family would no longer exist today. Now, your granddaughter has been impersonating my adopted daughter, trying to steal my biological daughter’s husband, and abused her identity to mistreat her. Should I not settle accounts with you?”

Madam Sheng Yue’s eyes narrowed slightly, her lips curling into a cold smile.

Her attire, a pale yellow robe, looked so graceful yet could not conceal the icy coldness emanating from her.

“Young Madam, if you hadn’t forbidden the Young Master from taking concubines all those years ago, how could these events have unfolded? Since the miss of the Nangong Family fancied the Young Master, and was willing to give up her dignity to become his concubine, nothing would have happened if you had just stepped back. In this world, where patriarchy reigns, it is natural for a man to have multiple wives and concubines. What reason do you have to stop him?”
