Chapter 1579 - The sharp eldest miss ning (4)

“She drugged our ning family. She should be punished. Otherwise, we can’t explain it to our family.” The second elder said stubbornly.

“Didn’t you hear what Yan ‘er said? Xue’ er is taking revenge for her?” The master of the ning family asked coldly.

“Master! Ning Lihua will be punished according to the clan rules if she disobeys her superior, how can you use private punishment? if it was in our ning family, if we used such a method to resolve conflicts between clansmen, then wouldn’t the ning family be in a mess long ago?” The 2nd elder’s words were righteous, and even some of the more inflexible elders nodded their heads, but no one dared to speak out their thoughts.

“Second brother! Have you gone senile? Your little sister was bullied. As an elder brother, it’s fine if you don’t say that you’ll avenge me, but you actually want to cause trouble for little sister ruoxue. Hmph! Let me tell you, as long as I’m here, don’t even think about touching a single hair on sister ruoxue!” Hearing second elder’s words, Ning Yan angrily stood up from her chair and roared, and her beautiful eyes met second elder’s without any politeness.

“Yan ‘er! My words are still the same, if a Clansman makes a mistake, he will be punished according to the clan rules, and can not be punished by lynching. ” The second elder emphasized with a red face.

“Second brother! Although little sister ruoxue is father’s goddaughter, she is not part of the ning family. Therefore, the ning family’s rules can not restrict her!” Ning Yan reminded her, which meant that she should not use the clan rules to restrict Leng ruoxue.

“Since she’s not a member of the ning family, then how do we settle the score of her hurting a member of my ning family?” The second elder asked coldly.

“Second brother! You want to deal with sister ruoxue for the sake of ning Lihua, the sinner of the ning family? Hmph! Who was ning Lihua? She was just a servant of the ning family. If she didn’t have a big brother who was the head butler, how could she live like a direct young lady? Speaking of which, this was all thanks to second brother! Otherwise, they wouldn’t have had the chance to rise up the ranks!” Ning Yan laughed coldly.

“The head butler and his sister are your people. If you want to stand up for them, just say it. Don’t say it in such a grand manner, disgusting! However, I’ll also say this today. If sister ruoxue loses a single hair, I won’t play with you!” Ning Yan threatened again.

“Y-you’re really unreasonable!” The second elder trembled in anger, but he couldn’t do anything about Ning Yan. After all, she was the master’s most beloved daughter!

As for the elders present, they really didn’t know what to say when they saw the second elder and the eldest young miss brother and sister actually start quarreling without caring about their image. However, they still blamed the second elder for finding trouble for no reason. She was the ancestor’s goddaughter, so why was the second elder biting her and not letting her go! Was it worth it just for the sake of the head butler and ning Lihua?

All the elders who had seen it clearly chose to protect themselves in the face of the dispute between the second elder and the eldest young miss. Moreover, in order not to be pulled into the cannon fodder by the second elder, everyone turned their heads in unison and did not look at them, but their ears were perked up the whole time.

“All of you, shut up!” Suddenly, a loud shout rang in everyone’s ears, and this voice was not unfamiliar to them. Immediately, everyone’s hearts trembled. The old ancestor was angry.

“Father!” Ning Yan looked at her father pitifully, tears welling up in her beautiful eyes.

“Stop arguing! Second! Xue ‘er, don’t you dare touch her, I was the one who allowed her to drug ning Lihua, Hmph! She dared to humiliate my daughter. She’s lucky that I’m still letting her live. ” The master of the ning family said in an extremely displeased tone, exuding a cold aura. His eyes were filled with disappointment as he looked at the second elder.

“Yes! Master!” The second elder answered unwillingly. He knew that with the family head’s protection, he could not convict Leng ruoxue of her crime.

“From now on, Xue ‘er’s words and actions in the ning family will be on my behalf. None of you are allowed to criticize her. If I need your cooperation, you are not allowed to refuse. I won’t let you off!” The master of the ning family said again. After he finished speaking, he ordered the guests to leave, not caring about how ugly the faces of the people present were.

However, after the ning family master said this, they finally saw the truth. That was, old Grand Madame really doted on this goddaughter. Otherwise, she would not have said such words. After today, they had to reevaluate Leng ruoxue’s position in the ning family.

Before leaving the study, the elders carried away the unconscious head butler. At this time, one of the head Butler’s hands was swollen like a pig’s trotter, blue and purple.

After the crowd left, Ning Yan stayed behind and looked at her father worriedly.

“Father! Your words just now will bring trouble to little sister ruoxue. ” After a moment of silence, Ning Yan finally couldn’t help but ask.

“That girl isn’t afraid at all. If someone really dares to cause trouble for her, then the unlucky one will definitely be someone else! Yan ‘er, Xue’ er’s methods are much more powerful than yours. Furthermore, she’s hard-hearted when it comes to dealing with enemies. I’m worried that many of those clansmen who don’t have eyes will be played to death by her. ” The master of the ning family touched his chin and pretended to worry.

When Ning Yan heard his words, she burst into laughter! He laughed.

“Then why do you still give sister ruoxue such great authority? Aren’t you afraid that she’ll accidentally kill all of your juniors?” Ning Yan was speechless. She really didn’t know what her father was thinking. Before those elders left, she saw many jealous gazes.

“A big tree needs to branch, but the rotten leaves on the tree also need to be cleaned. Otherwise, it will only affect the tree’s roots.” The master of the ning family sighed.

“Father, are you treating little sister ruoxue as a gardener?” Ning Yan was helpless and didn’t know what to say.

“There’s no other gardener more qualified than her. ” The master of the ning family laughed evilly.

“Father! You actually schemed against little sister ruoxue. If she finds out, you will be in trouble. ” Ning Yan couldn’t help but remind her. After being with ruoxue for so long, she more or less understood ruoxue’s character. Sister ruoxue would definitely not be willing to be schemed against by her father! When she thought of this, she actually felt a trace of anticipation in her heart.

“You silly girl. If only you were half as smart as Xue ‘er. Do you think she doesn’t know what I’m thinking?” The master of the ning family sighed.

“Argh! Little sister ruoxue knows?” Ning Yan was confused.

“Of course! We have a tacit understanding. ” The head of the ning family was a little smug. In fact, from the moment he knew that his daughter had been humiliated but did not do anything, that girl probably knew that he wanted to use her to do something. Coupled with the fact that it was because of Ning Hai and his brother, she had taken the initiative to help Yan ‘er deal with ning Lihua. All of this could not escape his eyes.

“Tsk!” Ning Yan rolled her eyes at her father, then pulled master ning out of the study.

First elder and ning haolan were waiting for them in the courtyard.

The father and daughter sat down in the empty seats beside the great elder, but neither of them spoke first.

“You let the head butler go so easily?” The first elder asked in disbelief.
