Chapter 28 Xue's Selfishness
"You!" Ye Fugui trembled with anger.

Seeing this, Xue Zhiyan was secretly excited.

She couldn't help praying in her heart, this time Ye Zhaoyan must be let down forever.

Ye Fugui took a deep breath, calmed down the anger in his heart, and asked in a cold voice: "Since that's the case, then I'll ask my mother, Zhaoyan hasn't returned yet, is it wrong to win the trust of these people so easily?"

Mrs. Xue glanced at her disdainfully, and said indifferently: "What's wrong? Not only are the witnesses and material evidence complete, but even her maid, Lian Shuang, even admitted it! Ye Zhaoyan hasn't returned yet, how can he save his name?"

The most important thing is that all the evidence against Ye Zhaoyan has been verified under the eyes of everyone!
Even if Ye Zhaoyan is sent to another place, this matter will be revealed through the gossip, making Ye Zhaoyan unable to turn around!

No matter how noble she was in the past, she will be a useless person from now on!

This is what Mrs. Xue cares most about!
"Is this how you treat your own granddaughter?" Ye Fugui's voice revealed strong sarcasm, "Do you know how much harm this matter will do to Zhaoyan if it is handled so hastily?"

Mrs. Xue's complexion was dark, and she said in a cold tone: "Of course I love my granddaughter in every possible way, but if someone damages the lintel of Ye Mansion, I will naturally not let it go easily!"

Mrs. Xue has her own selfishness. She didn't like Ye Zhaoyan, a granddaughter, in the past.

Not only does she not follow their Xue family's surname, but she is also used to wielding knives and guns, and she does not have the demeanor of a young lady at all.Even in some respects, she is much worse than the young lady from the side branch of the Xue family.

She really doesn't like this kind of character.

But because of Ye Zhaoyan's status in Ye Mansion, she didn't dare to show it blatantly before.

Ye Fugui's face changed after hearing the words, and after a while, she finally couldn't bear it anymore, "What do you mean by what you said, you have already determined that Zhaoyan has done something humiliating to the family, and you want to punish her?"

"Exactly." Mrs. Xue replied without hesitation.

"Why are you so ruthless to Zhaoyan?" Ye Fugui blushed with anger, his chest heaved violently, and he stared angrily at Mrs. Xue.

"Ruthless?" Mrs. Xue sneered, and said, "Since you are not from the Xue family, you naturally don't understand what our Xue family does. Although our Xue family has been in business for generations, it has always been known for its strict style. Disgraceful things! Zhaoyan is the blood of my Xue family, so I will naturally deal with her and protect the honor of the Xue family!"

Mrs. Xue's words were resolute and powerful.

In her heart, Ye Fugui is a person without a son, and it is impossible for her to understand what is in her heart.

She already had a lot of objections to Ye Fugui not having a boy, but she was forced to pretend to be a virtuous mother-in-law because of General Ye's power.

The resentment in her heart has never been less than a day.

Xue Zhiyan was also very shocked when she heard the words, she did not expect that Mrs. Xue would be so angry for the glory of the Xue family.

Seeing that the two of them were at a stalemate, she stood up and persuaded: "Grandmother, please don't pursue this matter any further. Save some face for Sister Zhaoyan!"

"Zhiyan, are you interceding for her?" Mrs. Xue's face turned cold, and she asked in a bad tone.

"Grandmother, you have misunderstood. I am not pleading for her. I just feel that this matter has become like this. If it is pursued further, it will only add to the sadness, and it will be detrimental to Sister Zhaoyan. Grandma also knows that General Ye is a A person who values ​​rules, if you let him know about this..."

Xue Zhiyan said pretending to be worried.

Mrs. Xue's eyes narrowed slightly, she knew that Xue Zhiyan was reminding her not to take things too far.

"Zhiyan is right." Mrs. Xue pondered for a moment, then nodded slowly.

Although she was angry in her heart, she would not be so stupid as to overdo it, otherwise Ye Fugui would catch her.

"Do you think it's good to send Sister Zhaoyan away first, and bring her back after she leaves Jindu and the turmoil subsides, okay?" Xue Zhiyan begged with a low eyebrow.

"You don't need to worry about this matter, I will handle it properly." Mrs. Xue waved her hand and said, her tone was still tough.

"I'm just worried that sister Zhaoyan won't be able to bear it." Xue Zhiyan looked worried.

Mrs. Xue turned her head to look at Ye Fugui, and said: "Zhaoyan has been wronged, and I can't continue to suffer. After she comes back, I decided to send her away first. As for other things, I will send someone to investigate and give One of you will explain."

"No! I absolutely disagree with this matter!" Ye Fugui said resolutely.

"This matter is not negotiable!" Mrs. Xue said with a firm attitude.

"No! Zhaoyan is my only daughter. If something happens to Zhaoyan, I will try my best to avenge her!" Ye Fugui's eyes flashed a look of madness.

Mrs. Xue was taken aback by Ye Fugui's eyes, and couldn't help being secretly surprised. It seemed that Ye Fugui was very protective of her cheap daughter.

However, she was not afraid of Ye Fugui's threat, and said with a sneer, "Whether Ye Zhaoyan is your daughter or my granddaughter, she deserves what she deserves, and she should pay the price for her mistakes!"

When Xue Zhiyan heard the words, a glint of success flashed in her eyes, and she secretly rejoiced.

This is the best!

"Don't even think about it! I will never let anyone send Zhao Yan away!" A resolute look flashed across Ye Fugui's face.

There was a stern look in Mrs. Xue's eyes, she looked at her coldly, and said, "If you don't want to send Zhaoyan away, it depends on whether you have the ability."

Now that Ye Zhaoyan has done such a thing that insults the style of the Ye family, she has become a useless person. She has every reason to send her to a small village far away from Jindu, leaving her alone and living a miserable life. Cut off contact.

Moreover, she knows Ye Fugui's character very well, if Ye Zhaoyan is really sent away, I am afraid that Ye Fugui will never want to set foot in Jindu again.

Ye Fugui's heart trembled suddenly when he heard the words, how could she not understand the threatening meaning in Mrs. Xue's words.

An unprecedented sense of resentment rose in her heart, as if thousands of ants were gnawing at her heart, the pain was so painful that she was about to suffocate.

She took a deep breath, tried to calm down her emotions, and asked in a deep voice: "Mother, let me ask you one last time, what exactly do I have to do to let Zhaoyan go?!"

"Didn't I say that? Zhaoyan made such a big mistake and deserves to be punished, otherwise, wouldn't it make others think that our Ye family has a bad family style and connives at our daughter-in-law to make trouble!" Mrs. Xue said coldly.

Ye Fugui felt sore in her heart, tears welled up in her eyes, as if a huge rock was pressing on her heart, making her breathless.

"Mother, do you really treat our Ye family like this?"

Ye Fugui asked with a choked voice, his voice hoarse.

"What are you talking about? What is your Ye family?" Mrs. Xue was taken aback, then smiled and said, "You child, did you misunderstand me?"
