Chapter 12: Expelled from the Family



A man dressed as a servant of the general's mansion walked in.

Su Jingjing turned around and saw, this... isn't this one of the servants who went to bury Su Hexiang that day?

She and her mother Bai Shi originally planned to wait for the two servants to complete their mission and return to collect their reward before killing them. However, when the servant returned, he was caught by Grandpa...

"Miss...Miss!" The servant was so scared when he saw Su Hexiang standing next to him!

Is the young lady a human or a ghost? So the young lady I saw half a month ago wasn't just a ghost! And the young lady wasn't dead at all!

"Nonsense! The ancestral hall is a sacred place! How can you be disrespectful!" Su Zhong was filled with rage when he saw this useless man.

Everyone smelled the pungent smell in the air and couldn't help but frown. Su Hexiang directly blocked their sense of smell.

"Master, please spare my life... I didn't mean it!"

He knocked and knelt down without hesitation.

"Never mind. I called you here to ask you to tell me what happened half a month ago regarding He Xiang and Su Jingjing!"

The servant lowered his head tremblingly, not daring to look up at Su Jingjing.

It turned out that Su Jingjing made an appointment with Su Hexiang to go to the Blood Mist Forest in the name of Xuanyuan Hong because Su Hexiang had been pestering Xuanyuan Hong to talk to her again that day and the head of the family had gone to the palace because of the emperor's summons and there was no one at home to intervene.

After arriving at the Blood Mist Forest, Su Jingjing chose a place where no one would pass by, and asked him and another servant to tie up Su Hexiang, and then she whipped Su Hexiang!

Bai Shi was also there at the time. She was on Su Jingjing's side and made the decision. The mother and daughter ignored Su Hexiang's pleas for mercy.

The mother and daughter were a little excited and lost their composure, and it seems that they beat Su Hexiang to death!

Later, Su Jingjing asked him and another servant to take Su Hexiang away to bury her, and later, everyone knew about it.

The more Su Zhong listened, the angrier he became!

"Dad, head of the family! How can you tell whether this matter is true or false just based on the oral account of a servant?" Bai Shi was unwilling to accept it.

"Maybe... maybe this servant was bribed by that useless... Su Hexiang!"

"Hmph! You know exactly what you have done! Don't try to quibble!" Su Zhong looked at Su Jingjing with disappointment in his eyes.

"Grandpa, I've known since I was little that I have no talent. But my second sister has always disliked me and has been causing trouble for me every other day... But as a weak woman, how can I resist..."

"These servants and old women know everything! Grandpa, you can ask them. I believe that under the rules of heaven and earth, they will definitely tell the truth for me!"

Su Hexiang mentioned the rules of heaven and earth, which is the oath a person makes to heaven and earth after answering some questions. In the Xuanwu Continent, as long as you swear by heaven and earth, that oath will come true!

The servant standing next to them looked terrified!

"Come here!" This reminded Su Zhong.

"Master! Master... let's talk!" Some of the fearful old women immediately knelt down.

It was really as Su Hexiang said. Su Jingjing was jealous of Su Hexiang's position as the legitimate granddaughter, and she had the third prince as her fiancé since she was a child. What an honor it was for Su Jingjing.

But! Su Hexiang is a useless person who can't practice cultivation! How can she have such a good life! Su Jingjing became more and more jealous. Whenever the Third Prince came to the General's Mansion, she would take the initiative to talk to him. Over time, Su Jingjing and Xuanyuan Hong became good friends.

But Su Jingjing was not satisfied with just this, she wanted to be the third prince's consort!

She would often cause trouble for Su Hexiang, hoping to vent her anger. However, because the head of the family always protected Su Hexiang, she did not dare to make any big noises, and threatened Su Hexiang not to tell anyone about her bullying, otherwise she would be beaten even more severely!

The most serious incident was half a month ago...

Su Hexiang looked coldly at Su Jingjing who was kneeling in front of the ancestral tablets!

What this person did to the original owner was simply unforgivable! No matter how kind-hearted she was, she had no right to forgive this person on behalf of the original owner!

The one who was most shocked was Su Zhong, and he was also the one who regretted the most! He had never imagined that for more than a decade, Su Hexiang would suffer such injustice because of his mistake of turning a blind eye!

"How can you be so cruel at such a young age!"

Fifteen years old is not young anymore.

Su Hexiang is only a few months older than Su Jingjing.

"Grandpa, I know I was wrong. Grandpa, you can punish me in any way you want, I accept it!"

Su Jingjing quickly begged for mercy. At this moment, there was no trace of the pleasure on her face that she had when she whipped Su Hexiang!

"Yes, yes, Dad, please be lenient with her because she is young and knows how to correct her mistakes! Jing'er is still young and doesn't understand!" Bai Shi panicked. It was all that idiot's fault! Why did he come back like that?

"Forget it, Su Jingjing! I don't have the final say on how to punish you. You keep bullying He Xiang, you have to go and beg her!" Su Zhong was unwilling to face this granddaughter who disappointed him. "He Xiang, tell me what to do!"

Su Jingjing was frightened by Su Hexiang's cold eyes.

"Since Second Sister knows that she is wrong, then, Second Sister, I will let you suffer and leave the Su family's ancestral home!"

What?

What did this loser say? What right did she have to chase her away?

"Grandpa..." Su Jingjing cried bitterly.

She now just felt that as long as her grandfather said no, she wouldn't have to leave!

But the fact is...

"Then just listen to Hexiang!"

Bang!

It was as if something exploded in Bai Shi and Su Jingjing's heads!

"Dad! Dad, please think twice! Jing'er is just a child! She...she knows she's wrong...If you kick her out! How will she face people in the future?"

Bai Shi yelled and cried.

"In that case, you should go out with us..."

Su Zhong seemed to have aged ten years in an instant.

With a gesture from him, the strong servants pulled Bai Shi and Su Jingjing, mother and daughter, out!

"How dare you! I'm the second daughter of the general's mansion! Let go of your dog paws..."

"Master! Think twice..."

Su Jingjing found that she couldn't break free even if she used her spiritual power.

Finally, the ancestral hall was quiet...

"Hexiang, go back and rest..."

She felt that Su Zhong had aged a lot, and she probably knew why he was like this. So she said a few words of concern and went back.

Su Zhong looked at the tablets in the ancestral hall with a hollow look in his eyes. Could it be that the Su family's thousands of years of foundation would be in decline in his generation?

No, there's also Hexiang. Since she's that man's child, she'll definitely achieve something! That child's life will definitely be extraordinary!

Back in the yard, Su Hexiang picked off the black and red pimples on her face, washed them briefly, changed into comfortable clothes, and climbed over the wall to go out.
