"What are you doing here?!"
The master was furious as soon as he arrived. Seeing him rushing over in such a hurry, he thought he was here to help and plead for mercy. After all, Xie Xianyu never cared about such matters before.
"Today's incident has caused a great uproar in the city. The Xie family has lost all face. If it is not resolved quickly, I am afraid that we will become a laughing stock."
The Third Master hurriedly replied, "Yes, yes, yes! Brother Xian is right. I will send the girl to the Yuan family immediately and tell everyone that I sent her to the Yuan family a long time ago, but because she is a concubine, there is no need for a grand ceremony."
The eldest master scolded him, "You think you are a fool! Who can believe this nonsense? Besides, they are having an affair in the temple! This is trampling the face of the Xie family into the mud!"
The third master was too embarrassed to speak and could only look at Xie Xianyu pleadingly.
Xie Xianyu said solemnly, "Now that things have come to this, there's no point in saying more. We still need to think about how to resolve this."
The third master nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes."
Stop scolding him and find a way to clean up his mess!
The elder master asked: "How do you want to solve this problem?"
Xie Xianyu said, "The Xie family has been a clean family for generations, and we cannot afford to tarnish our reputation. In my opinion, we should split up the family immediately and send the third branch away. This will at least mitigate some of the losses."
The third master froze there instantly, his face turning pale.
The Xie family is a large and prosperous clan with numerous collateral branches, but it only has this one direct line. Although the third master is a concubine's son, he is able to live in the Xie Mansion and enjoy the glory of being a direct line of the Xie family by virtue of being a brother of the eldest master.
Even though he is good for nothing, at least he can still get a monthly allowance from his family and be respected by others.
But if he moved out of the Xie Mansion, what would he be?
The master narrowed his eyes and began to think seriously.
Xie Xianyu said in a deep voice, "Logically speaking, since the old lady is still alive, it's not a good idea to split the family. But we have to make the decision in an emergency. The Xie family's reputation is the most important thing. We need to split the family immediately and tell everyone that the third branch has already been separated from the main line, but just hasn't had time to move. Naturally, the third branch's scandal has nothing to do with us."
The Third Master fell to his knees with a thud: "Brother! Please, don't split up the family! It's that little bitch who's been restless. I'll have her drowned in the lake or commit suicide. Don't kick us out, brother!"
The third wife was also frightened silly, her legs weak as she knelt on the ground, not daring to speak.
Before the master could speak, he heard an old and powerful voice: "Divide!"
The old lady came in leaning on a cane, her expression serious, "The Xie family's reputation is paramount. The Xie family has been a family of integrity for generations. Do you think they are going to have their reputation ruined by a little girl?"
The master nodded: "Let's do it this way, the family property..."
The old lady's eyes were sharp: "The third branch committed such a shameful act and still wants the family property? Move out immediately! Whether you live or die in the future has nothing to do with the Xie family!"
The third master's eyes went dark and he felt like the sky was falling.
The Third Madam was so frightened that she quickly pulled the Third Master's sleeve and said, "Master, what should we do? Say something."
The Third Master jumped up and slapped her in the face: "Bitch! I shouldn't have married you in the first place. A scumbag mother gave birth to a scumbag daughter. You've brought me to this point. I'm going to divorce you!"
The third wife was beaten so hard that she saw stars, but she was so frightened that she froze in place, begging for mercy: "Master, I was wrong, please don't divorce me!"
The hall was in chaos for a moment. Xie Xianyu felt it was too noisy and left immediately.
Qing'an waited outside, watched Xie Xianyu walk out, and immediately followed his steps.
"Sir, now that this matter has been resolved, should we send a message to our cousin to reassure her?"
Xie Xianyu turned around and glanced at him: "Do you want me to meddle with this?"
