After the engagement, Xin Guoguo was completely at ease waiting to get married.
However, she wanted to be quiet, but the people in the tribe were not happy with it.
Early the next morning after the engagement, a group of people from the clan came.
Men and women, young and old, filled the entire front hall.
Xin Guoguo didn't invite them to Jueming Hall, but simply met the guests in the front hall.
Nanny Zhang and Nanny Ying followed behind her, their faces full of dignity.
After they sat down, Xin Guoguo asked, "I wonder why the clan leader and the grandfathers are here?"
"Guoguo, we just want to ask, what are the rules of this general's mansion after you get married?"
Although the patriarch has the greatest power in the clan, he is only in his forties and still somewhat inferior in front of the older generation.
Xin Guoguo didn't answer immediately.
She raised her eyes and scanned the expressions of everyone present, then calmly retracted her gaze, picked up the tea handed to her by Nanny Ying, and took a sip.
Without putting down the teacup, he held it to warm his hands: "What do you think, Uncle Clan Leader?"
The clan leader smiled awkwardly. Over the years, people in the clan had also thought about taking over the general's mansion, but they were all taught a lesson by the girl in front of them.
After these years, he felt a little scared when facing this girl.
Today, it seemed that this girl was even more imposing than before, and he felt secretly bitter in his heart.
Although he is the clan leader, he is not the only one who has the final say on clan affairs!
Seeing that he didn't say anything, the others became a little impatient.
"If you get married, you will no longer be a member of my Xin family. This general's mansion should naturally be taken over by someone from my Xin family!"
Xin Guoguo smiled faintly and said nothing.
Seeing this, everyone else felt a little proud.
"Sixth Uncle is right. Guoguo, if you get married, there will be no one to take over the General's Mansion. If you are bullied by your husband's family in the future, there will be no one to help you!"
This is a naked threat.
A woman who marries out, especially one who marries into a wealthy family, will suffer in vain if she does not have the support of her natal family, even if she is bullied to death by her husband's family!
Everyone was talking at once, and it was very lively.
The Xin clan leader stood there, unable to get a word in.
Seeing that Xin Guoguo's expression didn't change, he felt a little uneasy.
"Then, elders, who do you think should inherit this general's mansion?"
She still looked indifferent, as if she didn't care about anything.
Xin Liu raised his chin, his tone a little domineering:
"You don't have to worry about that! The clan will naturally make the arrangements!"
Anyway, let’s get the stuff first!
Xin Guoguo was so angry that she laughed: "So, a bunch of you guys want to divide my things, and I don't even have the right to know who I gave it to?"
The patriarch felt his old face burning with embarrassment.
The Sixth Uncle's face froze, but then he was filled with anger at being disobeyed by the younger generation:
"What do you mean by your things?! This general's mansion should belong to the clan! We took pity on you, a little girl, and let you live here for a few years, and you want to take it for yourself?!"
"Hahaha! This is the first time I've heard that a reward earned based on one's own merits doesn't actually belong to oneself! Good! Good! Good! I've taken note of what Sixth Grandpa said. I'll go to the palace and ask His Majesty whether this General's Mansion belongs to me, Xin Guoguo, or to shameless people like you!"
With a "bang", the teacup was placed heavily on the table.
There was a slight sound of "Qing", and the teacup shattered into pieces in an instant.
No porcelain pieces flew out, only tea spilled all over the table.
The clan leader was shocked when he saw this scene. It seemed that this girl's fighting skills had improved again!
What kind of control over one's own strength must one possess to be able to shatter the teacup into a pile in an instant without a single piece flying out?!
The hearts of everyone in the hall also trembled.
Uncle Six was also startled.
When he came to his senses, he covered his chest with one hand and pointed at Xin Guoguo with a trembling hand: "Unfilial! Unfilial descendants!"
"Guoguo, you're going too far! Sixth Grandpa is doing this for your own good. How could you talk to him like that?! Why don't you apologize to Sixth Grandpa right now?!"
A pair of hands supported Sixth Grandpa.
The girl was wearing a light blue skirt, with long hair draped over her shoulders and her eyebrows slightly furrowed on her pretty face.
She looks like a beauty.
However, when she looked at Xin Guoguo, the jealousy that flashed in her eyes from time to time destroyed the beauty.
Xin Guoguo shrugged his nose, turned his head and waved his hand.
Alas~
How come such a pretty face was given to someone with a dull brain?
Nanny Ying immediately understood and took two steps forward.
“Snap! Snap!”
Two slaps landed on the girl's face, one on the left and one on the right.
It looks surprisingly symmetrical!
"Who do you think you are? How can you dictate what my young lady says or does? You have no manners!"
Nanny Ying snorted disdainfully and stepped back.
The girl screamed, covering her face, and was about to cry: "You...you are just a slave, why do you hit me?! Ahhhhh! I will kill you!"
The patriarch was speechless.
But now that things have come to this, how can he sit still?
He quickly stood up and glared at the girl: "Shut up!"
Turning back, he bowed and apologized to Madam Ying, "Madam, please forgive me. I am just a little girl and don't know what to do. Please be magnanimous and don't argue with her."
This woman was the nanny who had served the Queen in the palace. If she went to the palace to complain to the Queen, all the members of their family would probably be doomed!
Madam Ying stepped aside, not accepting the greeting, and kept her serious face:
