The old lady suppressed the curled corners of her mouth.
But now is not the time to be happy, there is still one last step.
"Please think twice, Duke!"
Even though everyone was kneeling at his feet, Duke Anguo still couldn't get a single word of surrender from Jiang Fengyuan.
Once words are spoken, they can be easily discarded.
Although Duke Anguo was unwilling, he could not lose face.
He glared at everyone in the big house: "Don't regret it!"
Jiang Yuansheng said coldly: "Grandfather, rest assured, the glory of the Duke's Mansion will have nothing to do with us in the future!"
"You!" Duke Anguo was so angry that he couldn't speak.
"Open the ancestral temple! Expel this rebellious son and his family from the Duke's Mansion!"
The elders of the Jiang family walked into the Duke's Mansion one by one.
Chen packed a red envelope and stuffed it into their hands.
"Thank you, elders, for making the trip."
The elders of the clan were all polite to Chen, and it was a rare opportunity that Chen was so thoughtful as to arrange the best accommodation for them.
Jiang Qisheng looked at these people with disdain.
They are just some old guys who are not presentable, but the eldest wife still spends a lot of effort on them.
Jiang Qisheng turned and left.
The clan leader frowned, Jiang Qisheng didn't take the Qingzhou elders seriously.
Do you really think they are blind?
The children born to a concubine are indeed not as good as those born to the principal wife.
The eldest son of the Jiang family serves in the military and is a fourth-rank general.
Although the several children born had a bad reputation.
But the eldest son Yuan Sheng is extremely talented and he will definitely have a place in the court one day.
Chen said respectfully, "Yuanwu has not returned due to some matters. Please understand, clan leader."
The clan leader nodded. Now that things had come to this, it was no longer important whether he could return or not.
Everything is ready.
"Now that everyone is here, let's open the ancestral hall." The clan leader sighed.
"Open the ancestral temple!"
The ancient and heavy door was pushed open, and the room was filled with memorial tablets and candlelight.
In the middle of the incense table are the records and family tree of the Jiang family's descendants.
The thick notebook records the rise and fall of the Jiang family.
The patriarch turned the yellowed pages of the book. The further he read, the newer the paper became.
He turned to the page about the Jiang family's eldest branch.
In all the years I have been the clan leader, this is the first time I have seen someone being expelled from the clan along with his entire family.
Seeing the stunning young man standing behind him, the clan leader felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife when he realized that he no longer belonged to their Jiang family from today on.
He had a premonition that Duke Anguo would definitely pay the price for this decision he made in the future.
He sighed deeply, picked up the pen and dipped it in ink.
"Do you really want to remove me?"
"Eliminate!" Duke Anguo said angrily.
The pen in the patriarch's hand slowly fell.
He crossed out six names in a row.
One of the names is still freshly inked.
"Jiang Fengyuan, the eldest son of the Jiang family, is expelled."
He crossed out a name and an elder of the clan read out a sentence.
"Chen Xinwan, the daughter-in-law of the Jiang family, is expelled."
"Jiang Yuansheng, the eldest grandson of the Jiang family, is expelled."
......
"Jiang Yuanxi, the youngest daughter of the Jiang family, is expelled."
He read out six names in a row.
Jiang Yuanxi was so happy that he almost laughed out loud. He had finally waited for this day to come.
[We are leaving. Grandma will feel lonely staying in the Jiang Family Ancestral Hall. Why not take her with us?]
Jiang Fengyuan's heart sank.
Blame him for almost leaving my mother in this unlucky home.
"Chief, please remove my mother's name as well." Jiang Fengyuan said in a deep voice.
"this."
The clan leader didn't know what to do, so he turned and looked at Duke Anguo.
There was a moment of daze in the eyes of Duke Anguo. Although the woman was extremely vulgar, she was his wife after all.
The old lady saw the hesitation in his eyes.
He immediately stepped forward and said, "Master, my sister married into the Duke's Mansion with a dowry. She worked hard and made great contributions. This is not right."
She said this, but in her heart she wished that bitch's son would take her tablet away.
In this way, she would be the legitimate mistress of the Duke's Mansion.
No more being laughed at.
Duke Anguo felt a deep sense of disgust.
Whenever someone mentions this incident, it seems like they are talking about his incompetence back then.
It takes a merchant's daughter to save the Jiang family.
As the Duke of Anguo, does he still need a woman to support him?
"Take her away!"
As long as that woman leaves, no one will mention this matter again.
The patriarch shook his head.
Back then, the original wife of Duke Anguo married into the Duke's Mansion with a generous dowry.
After saving the Duke's Mansion from danger, many years later, the Duke of Anguo actually wanted to drive his first wife's son out of the mansion.
Throw away the person after using him.
This is a sin!
The Duke of Anguo is really getting old and confused!
The clan leader dipped the brush in ink again and crossed out the name of the hero who saved the Jiang family.
What a sin! They even don’t let go of the deceased.
The oath that Duke Anguo made in front of his original wife would come back to haunt him sooner or later.
Jiang Yuancheng came close to Jiang Yuansheng and said, "Brother, what if they come to your door and lick your face in the future?"
There are so many shameless people, and that old woman and her second wife are the most prominent.
Jiang Yuansheng smiled, he didn't care.
"Don't worry, they won't."
This is because the first page of the Jiang family tree states that anyone whose name is removed from the Jiang family tree will no longer have any connection with the Jiang family.
No matter whether both parties are rich or poor, they should not be entangled.
It's no different from breaking off a relationship.
Therefore, they are not afraid of the other party coming to them in the name of family affection.
The ancestor of the Jiang family originally wanted to use this as a deterrent to let the younger generations know that if they leave the Jiang family, they will have no roots.
But I didn't expect it to be convenient for them.
If the ancestor of the Jiang family knew about this, he would probably vomit to death.
"Since the two families have severed their relationship, my mother still has the bride's dowry, and we have to take it all away."
Jiang Fengyuan looked at the Duke of Anguo: "I think my father would not want outsiders to know that the Duke of Anguo's Mansion was maintained until today by mother's dowry."
