chapter 41

"Well, it's not enough to just talk about it, it depends on the facts."

Uncle Nineteen sighed, and said: "Let Wu Niang explain what happened first, and then say that the patriarch did not act and delayed protecting Xiao. This needs to be proved by someone. I have said before that the patriarch is sick. It wasn't intentional."

Yang's heart tightened.

Where can I find evidence and witnesses for Du Ke to pretend to be sick and help the Xiao family take care of things?

If you can't find it, it will become Du Qingtan's slander of the patriarch, and you will be punished.

Sure enough, everyone whispered again.

Du Ke was triumphant and said in a strange way: "Didn't you say that the old man took money from the Xiao family? Let's find out the evidence together! If you can't find it, hum~"

Yang became anxious: "What should I do?"

Twelfth uncle blamed Du Qingtan even more: "You are young and ignorant, you only care about venting your anger and don't consider the consequences, how can you talk nonsense?"

Du Qingtan didn't panic at all, and said in a soft voice: "If I talk nonsense, I don't know how Uncle Qi plans to punish me?"

Du Ke said angrily: "For a person with such despicable conduct like you, Du's Temple can't tolerate it. From now on, you can go wherever you like, and you have nothing to do with Du's anymore!"

This means to leave Du Qingtan out of the clan.

Clan origin is the most important thing for people in the world. If you are exiled from the clan, you will become a rootless person, and your whole life will be ruined.

This is a very heavy punishment, and those who are not heinous cannot be expelled from the clan.

And most of the people who were punished were men, and very few women were treated like this, because most of them were directly forced to death.

Du Ke definitely couldn't let Du Qingtan die because of this incident, but driving her out of the clan was equivalent to forcing her to die.

The people of the tribe continued to discuss for a while, and some of them stood relatively close to Du Qingtan, but hurriedly moved away, as if she was some kind of scourge that could not be contaminated.

Du Qingtan smiled and said: "If I say the wrong thing because I was in a hurry, I will become a person of low moral character and will be exiled from the clan. Then, as a model for the whole clan, Uncle Qi has really done something to disappoint the clan and eat inside and outside. How should I deal with myself?"

That's pretty bold!

How dare a little orphan girl provoke the patriarch.

Unless he had eaten the bear's heart and leopard's gall, or he had real evidence in his hand.

The wind changed direction immediately.

Everyone looked at Du Ke in astonishment, feeling that he might have done such a thing for real, and Du Qingtan would be the one to blame.

"Ridiculous!" Du Ke's face was cloudy and uncertain, his eyes seemed to burst into flames, but because of his status, he couldn't just tear Du Qingtan with his hands.

The fat old man jumped out immediately: "It's really a violation of the rules! If anyone who is punished is provocative and yelling at the patriarch like this, what should we do? Seventh brother, don't pay attention to this ignorant and stupid woman!"

Ninth Uncle said slowly: "That's not true. It's not easy to be a patriarch. You have to be the first to set an example. If Lao Qi is innocent, you don't have to be afraid. So what if you respond to her?"

The last sentence is full of malice.

If you don't respond, you have a guilty conscience and you have done something evil.

Cold sweat broke out in Du Ke's palm.

The Xiao family did say hello to him, and hoped that he would not affect the friendship and affection between the two clans because of such a sick and weak orphan girl with no future.

He even promised that if Xiao Qilang benefited from this, his smart grandson who is studying might be able to study in the Guozi Academy, and he will have a bright future in the future.

However, this fact is confidential, it is impossible for the Xiao family to disclose it, and Du Qingtan should not find evidence.

Mostly blackmail.

Du Ke pondered for a moment, then forced himself to sneer and said, "If I really got bribed by Xiao's family, and did something that made me feel sorry for the people, then I will not be able to be the head of the family anymore."

"Is that all?" Du Qingtan chased after him.

"Otherwise what do you want?"

Du Ke was provoked again and again by her, and was so angry that he failed, "Could it be that you still want me to die?"

"I'm not a government official, and I don't have the power to kill people at will."

Du Qingtan brushed his broken hair behind his ears, and said casually: "I can be convicted for my words and be expelled from the clan; you should also be expelled from the clan for betraying the clan and killing innocent people."

As soon as the words fell, someone shouted and scolded: "Du Qingtan! You vicious little bitch, you have a mother but not a mother, and it is not enough to damage the reputation of the clan and your fiancée. I will discipline you for your parents!"

Three or four women came out of the crowd and surrounded Du Qingtan. The leader was tall and fat, aggressive and hideous.

But it was the daughters-in-law of Du Ke's family. It was not easy for the men to start, so it was their turn to take the stage.

After all, losing the position of patriarch will not only damage the family's reputation, but also lose status, power and wealth.

Seeing that it wasn't good, Mrs. Yang hurriedly said, "Run..."

Du Qingtan took out a short knife from his sleeve.

She threw away the scabbard, pulled a blade, and stabbed Liao Guanshi's thigh hard with a "shua".

"Ah..." Liao Guanshi let out a miserable cry, he woke up from the dizziness, and then fell into a dizziness from the sobriety.I can't get up at all.

Blood flowed down his trousers all the way to the ground, dazzling.

The women were frightened, Qiqi took a step back, looked at Du Qingtan nervously, and even forgot the curse words.

Du Qingtan unhurriedly drew out the dagger, and unhurriedly glanced around the crowd, and said softly, "Although I am weak, I can take one away by the way. Who will come?"

"You, you, you are so bold!"

Du Ke was trembling with rage, and said in one voice: "Hurry up and take her down! What are you waiting for!"

"Of course I will wait for Uncle Ninth to uphold justice."

Du Qingtan bowed deeply to the ninth uncle: "Ninth uncle and seventh uncle, as patriarchs, can't persuade the people with reason, let alone enforce the law impartially. Instead, they use their power to act in front of the whole clan and in front of the ancestors. On the face of it, he connives at the family members to bully the orphans.

Isn't this a guilty conscience, a dog jumping over the wall in a hurry, trying to mess around, confuse the public, and kill people?Such a person is not worthy to be the patriarch of the Du clan! "

Uncle Ninth sighed: "Lao Qi, it's too ugly to see your troubles. I thought, if you know how to repent, for the sake of the family's reputation, some things can be covered up..."

The third uncle sang with him: "It's a pity that some people don't cry when they don't see the coffin! Do you want evidence? I just happen to have a witness here! Huang Erlang, come out!"

A manservant with a stooped back and one eye was blind came out with his head bowed. He stood in front of the people uneasily, wringing his fingers vigorously.

It was the caretaker of Duco's house.

The door of a big family is very important, and the comings and goings are always hidden from the concierge.

When Du Ke saw Huang Erlang, cold sweat instantly covered his forehead, back, palms, and soles of feet.

But why did his own servant betray the master?

 Guanshi Liao: What did I do wrong?I feel bad, I want to cry ●﹏●
