Chapter 265 Asking to Leave the Clan

Mrs. An has two sons, both of whom work in the Dali Temple.

The eldest son holds the third-rank official position, his daughter-in-law is decisive and has given birth to two sons and a daughter, so the old lady is naturally relieved about the first wife.

But she was never satisfied with her youngest son...

He will be thirty years old in a few days. Even with the support of his brother for so many years, he is still only a seventh-rank official!

The end of the year was approaching, and she secretly gave him some money and asked him to go and take care of it, but he refused to go!

He didn't like Zhao and her son and kept his distance from them. She had no choice but to persuade him to take a concubine to continue the family line, but he refused... and was completely dominated by that Ruan!

What about arranged marriages, childhood sweethearts... She really regretted not breaking up the marriage and finding someone new for her second son!

As a mother, she has retreated again and again. Since Ruan can't give birth to a son, let her register Jun Ting under her name, so that the second house can continue the family line!

But Ruan Shi refused to listen to any persuasion. She would rather give all the money to the maid than make plans for her children and grandchildren!

In that case...don't blame her for being heartless as a mother-in-law!

As for the Zhao family...

If it were in the past, she wouldn't have known about it! But now, it couldn't be possible. Liu was the bastard of the An family's son-in-law, not only was she of humble origin and had no one to rely on... She was naturally not worthy of being the second son's equal wife!

Later, when all the elders of the clan are gathered, she will marry the eldest daughter-in-law's cousin to the second son, and register Jun Ting under the name of that girl!

That girl has always been in love with the second brother and is even willing to be his concubine. For this reason, she has been living with her cousin... Now that she promises her the position of co-wife and gives her the title of legitimate son, she will definitely agree!

As for whether the second brother likes her...it all depends on her own ability in the future!

Zhao took her son to the ancestral hall and saw Mrs. An holding the hand of her cousin from the Sun family, and her heart skipped a beat.

Just as she was about to enter, the clan leader scolded her, "Get out! Concubines are not allowed to enter the ancestral hall!" There are no rules...

Looking at the young girl inside the door who raised her chin towards her, Zhao felt uneasy. She did not dare to put her foot down and finally retreated.

As usual, she looked at her son with grievance, only to find that his eyes were dull and stupid! ?

Are you still not recovered from the shock you just received?

Look at what he has accomplished...

Zhao was feeling uneasy. She had been looking at Ruan with a smug look on her face, but when she saw Mr. An bringing the three of them, mother and daughter, into the ancestral hall in a dignified manner, she felt very uncomfortable.

She grew up in the An family and was childhood sweethearts with her second brother. Why could he never see her in his eyes?

Shouldn't she have been so impatient in the beginning, plotting against him to give birth to Jun Ting, thus causing him to dislike her and stay alone in the empty room for over a decade...

What's the point of thinking about this now!?

The second brother is filial. After so many years, he finally agreed to let the old lady open the ancestral hall for Jun Ting's sake. He will definitely not offend the old lady in public!

From now on, she can come to the An family ancestral hall whenever she wants... and no one can stop her!

"Princess Zhaoning has arrived—!"

Following a loud shout, everyone knelt on the ground in unison: "We pay our respects to the Princess! May Princess Zhaoning live a thousand years!"

Little Tangbao got a seat in someone else's ancestral hall and sat down steadily.

She glanced at the ancestral tablets in the An family ancestral hall and waved her hand casually like a little adult: "Everyone, please stand up. There is no need to be so formal. Just continue what you need to do."

When Mrs. An saw An Yuhan standing in front of people, her expression suddenly froze and she felt a little uncomfortable.

But she soon let it go. The child had been weak and sickly since childhood, like a bottomless pit that swallowed gold. He would not live long anyway... She was doing this for the good of the second child and his wife!

"Mother, I want to 'expel' myself from the An family."

Mrs. An's figure swayed, her eyes widened in disbelief: "What did you say?"

The second master of the An family glanced at the tablets of the An family's ancestors, and then looked at his mother with disappointment in his eyes. "We are both parents, how could you have the heart to lay hands on your own offspring?"

"If I continue to stay in the An Mansion and continue to be my mother's son, I may not be able to protect my wife and daughter... Therefore, I, An Changlin, voluntarily leave the clan and sever all ties with my mother!"

Hearing this, Old Lady An laughed out loud in anger: "Good! Very good!"

"I have raised a good son-in-law for the Ruan family and a good husband for the Ruan family!"

She suddenly looked at Ruan, a cold glint flashing in her eyes: "An Ruan! Although your family has some money, it is only because of your mother's merchant background!"

"Your father is already half buried in the ground, and his official position is not even as high as Changlin's. What are you trying to do by instigating my son to break with the family?!"

Old Mrs. An became more and more angry as she spoke, her chest heaving violently. She had never regretted marrying Ruan as her daughter-in-law so much in her life!

Ruan was about to speak when An Changlin pulled her behind him, "Mother, my eldest brother..."

"Shut up!"

An Changlin originally wanted to say that his eldest brother had been dismissed from his post. No matter how powerful the An family is now, how much stronger can it be than the Ruan family?

But he was interrupted by Mrs. An's stern shout.

"Since you are determined to leave, An Changzong is not your elder brother! Don't try to get involved with him anymore!" Old Mrs. An gritted her teeth, bloodshot in her eyes, and she seemed to be extremely angry.

If she were to be caught by this rebellious son today, how would she still have the dignity to manage the household in the An Mansion in the future?!

Such an unfilial, unfraternal, and unmotivated evildoer...

It will only shorten her life!

No matter!!!

"Since ancient times, those who have achieved great things, besides hard work, have all relied on the support of their family."

"You are dull and inferior to your brother in every way. That's why I have to be extra attentive to you and cultivate you in every way... I never thought that at your age, you would abandon our family for an old woman who can't bear a son?"

Madam An was so angry that she was shaking all over. She raised her hand and pointed at An Changlin with a trembling hand! "Since you are so ungrateful, you are not worthy of being an heir of the An family anyway. There is no need for me to waste my energy on a useless person like you!"

"..." An Changlin's pupils suddenly shrank, and he couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

Stupid?

waste?

It turns out that in his mother's heart, he is so unbearable!

An Changlin no longer felt any guilt and looked at the old clan leader indifferently: "Today, I, An Changlin, request to leave the clan. I, the clan leader, please cross out my name from the family tree and sign the document of severing ties with you!"

He turned and looked out the door, meeting Zhao's gaze directly. "Also, I, An Changlin, have never acknowledged the identities of Zhao's mother and son. How you deal with them is your business... Today, I'm only taking my wife and daughter!"

Every word he spoke was powerful.

Zhao stumbled and fell to the ground.

An Junting beside her was like a fool, counting on his fingers. Instead of helping her up, he muttered "I'm tired" and sat down on Zhao in front of everyone like a fool!

When Mrs. An saw this, her face turned even paler instantly!

She never expected that this usually docile son would be so decisive today! ?

What's even more unexpected is that the son born to Zhao seems to have been frightened to the point of becoming insane?!
