Family rules!
The moment those two words were uttered, not only Lin Fang's expression changed, but everyone else's expression also changed.
The Tian family did have family rules, but those were things of the old days.
The Tian family was a large clan and had been a landlord family since the beginning of the last century.
This kind of family has low moral standards but an unusually high number of rules, and they are prone to violence.
Some servants even beat people to death for making mistakes and dumped their bodies in mass graves!
Of course, that was in the old society, but the old master of the Tian family has always maintained this family tradition. The purpose is to educate his children and grandchildren.
However, in everyone's memory, this family law was rarely used. Apart from Tian Guang, who was a troublemaker when he was young and was beaten by the old man, the others were rarely subjected to family law.
However, Tian Guang was a grown man, so he could just hit her. But Tian Xiao'e was just a young girl; how could she possibly bear such a blow?
However, everyone wore expressions of schadenfreude.
Since they weren't the ones being attacked, they naturally wanted to watch the show.
"Xiaojun, go to the ancestral hall and bring me the rattan cane!" the old lady said with a stern face.
"Okay, Grandma!" Xiao Jun skipped off happily.
Lin Fang was so frightened that she immediately knelt down. "Mom, Xiao'e misspoke. I apologize on her behalf. Please don't hold it against a child!"
"Hmph, if a child is not taught, it is the father's fault! Since her father is gone, then I, her grandmother, will give her a good talking-to!" The old lady persisted.
Lin Fang quickly said to Tian Xiao'e, "Xiao'e, quickly kowtow to your grandmother and apologize, hurry up!"
Lin Fang shoved Tian Xiao'e, but Tian Xiao'e, stubborn as ever, retorted, "No! I didn't say anything wrong, why should I apologize? If anyone should apologize, it should be them apologizing to us. They bullied us, a widow and her child, they're scoundrels!"
"You! How dare you!!" The old lady was furious. Since the old man died, she had been in charge of the household and no one had ever dared to talk back to her, let alone insult her.
"Xiaojun, I told you to get the rattan cane, where did you take it!" the old woman roared.
"Grandma, you're here!"
Xiao Jun quickly grabbed an old vine covered in barbs.
The old lady grabbed him and stood up angrily.
Lin Fang immediately knelt down and cried, "Mom, I beg you, Xiao'e didn't mean it, please forgive her this time?"
"You want me to let her off?" the old lady said angrily. "She insulted me, her grandmother, in front of everyone in the family. If I let her off today, what will others think of me? How will I be able to manage this family?"
"Xiao Jun, you guys hold her down! I'm going to beat her to death today!" the old lady shouted viciously.
Xiao Jun and his men sneered and immediately went up to hold Tian Xiao'e down.
"Let go of me! Let go of me!" Tian Xiao'e tried to struggle, but she was no match for the young men and was held down firmly.
The old lady raised the rattan cane in her hand high.
Lin Fang quickly stood up and grabbed the old lady's arm. "Mom, Xiao'e is a girl! You can't hit her like that! I beg you!"
"You won't let me hit you?" The old woman's lips curled into a slight sneer. "Fine, but if you don't want to suffer physical pain, we can punish you in other ways?"
"Other forms of punishment?" Lin Fang was slightly taken aback.
The old lady said calmly, "Your daughter is truly outrageous and unworthy to be a member of the Tian family! From now on, your entire family will be removed from the family genealogy!"
Everyone's eyes lit up.
Now I suddenly understood why the old lady insisted on resorting to family discipline.
This is clearly a trick!
Once Lin Fang's family is removed from the family genealogy, they will lose their inheritance rights. Furthermore, Tian Guang's land will no longer belong to them! They can then naturally take the land back!
Everyone else understood, and Lin Fang wasn't stupid; how could she not understand?
In that moment, there was no greater sorrow than a broken heart!
That's enough! That's enough! Let's not argue anymore!
Lin Fang sighed and said, "Fine, since that's how it is, Mom, from now on, you can remove the three of us from the family genealogy! From now on, I'll take my two children and leave Tian Village!"
She was really tired and didn't want to argue anymore!
Moreover, she knew that given the Tian family's character, even if Xiao'e was beaten today, they would still find evil mole sleu to prevent them from obtaining the land deed!
To knowingly do something futile is truly unwise! Most importantly, she felt sorry for her daughter and didn't want her to be beaten for no reason!
But Tian Xiao'e didn't expect any of this. Even when faced with the rattan cane, she was still unwilling, resentful, and defiant!
"Go ahead and hit me! If you have the guts, kill me! Let the whole Tian Village see what kind of face you are, Grandma! You're sexist, ugly, heartless, and immoral!!" Tian Xiao'e shouted loudly.
"Fine! Fine! Looks like I have no choice but to beat you up today! I'll beat you to death!"
The old woman shakily swung the rattan cane.
Despite her frail physique, she's quite strong; when she strikes with that vine, it even carries the wind!
"Xiao'e!" Lin Fang hurriedly tried to step forward to stop her, but was held back by Tian Wei and several members of the Tian family.
Lin Fang could only watch helplessly as the vine was about to fall on Tian Xiao'e.
brush!
Just then, a large hand suddenly appeared and firmly grasped the vine.
Everyone froze for a moment and looked over.
It was Lin Yu!
The old lady's face was gloomy. "What? When did it become your place to meddle in the affairs of the Tian family?"
Lin Yu said coldly, "Tian Xiao'e is my cousin. Her business is my business. Anyone who dares to bully her, I dare to kill their whole family!"
