Chapter 47 Asking to Leave the Clan
Qu Jingyao also saw through the Qu family members and realized that they were all so shameless. She could not continue to be entangled with these people. She had to break off all ties with them completely.
She took two steps forward and stood straight in front of everyone, her delicate face full of indifference.
"We ask to leave the tribe on our own initiative!"
Her words were like a drop of water falling into a frying pan, instantly causing everyone around to explode in discussion.
Qu Jingyao could clearly hear some people's exclamations, and the shocked expressions on the faces of everyone in the Qu family did not escape her eyes.
The corners of her lips curled up into a sarcastic smile. Did these people's expressions mean that they didn't have the courage to make such a decision? Then they were completely wrong. She, Qu Jingyao, would not be so foolish.
"Yao girl, this is not a joke, you..." Xu Lizheng said worriedly, even Aunt Cui Lian beside him had a hint of worry in her eyes.
Qu Hongsen leaned on his crutch and snorted coldly, turning his head away. His eyes were filled with cold resentment. He cursed this family in his heart, saying that they kept challenging the authority of his clan leader and were just as stupid as Xu.
Since they had severed ties, he didn't stop them. Qu Shusheng was already dead, so how could an orphan and a widow turn around and make trouble?
"How dare you, little girl, say such outrageous words? Is this how you raised them, Liu? Fine! I'm old and my words are useless. So, I won't bother you anymore. You can decide for yourselves."
The Liu family and their sons listened to the sound of the cane tapping the ground, looked at each other, then smiled and turned to look at the Qu family with a firm gaze:
"We have decided to ask to leave the clan, and we would like the village head to be a witness."
A sneer flashed across Qu Jingyao's brows, and the slightly raised corners of his lips revealed a hint of coldness as he looked at the good patriarch of the Qu family in front of him with sarcasm.
The fierce look that flashed across his eyes did not escape Qu Jingyao's sight.
Before she could say anything, Old Lady Xu started cursing Liu loudly:
"You bitch, you dare to say anything. Fine! If you want to exterminate the clan, then bring the money. You want to take the Qu family's belongings and go out to find a mistress? No way!"
The people around were whispering and pointing, looking at Liu with suspicion. Old Mrs. Xu had been saying this so confidently. Could it be that the money Liu earned was really not clean? No wonder it was difficult to find the seductive faces of Liu and her daughter in the surrounding villages.
How many bachelors in the village are eager to make a move after Qu Shusheng's death...
"Maybe her mother-in-law really has something against her, otherwise why would she ask to leave the clan?"
"Yes!"
"As the saying goes, flies don't bite seamless eggs!"
After hearing what they said, Liu's face suddenly turned dark and her eyes turned red. Qu Qingchen, who was standing beside her, was about to step forward angrily, but was stopped by Qu Jingyao. She glanced at everyone.
A look of gloating mockery flashed across the faces of Mrs. Xu and her family, while the head of the Qu family raised his eyebrows, stroked his beard, and looked aside calmly.
Qu Jingyao lowered her eyes and sneered.
"You are a fly, so you have the final say!" Her eyes fell on the woman who had just been sarcastic.
"Isn't this your grandma...you...how come you're so angry?"
Qu Jingyao slowly stepped forward and moved closer to the woman. She leaned over and put her pretty face close to her and asked, "Who wouldn't be anxious when a dog bites someone?"
As soon as she finished speaking, people around her burst into laughter. The woman was embarrassed. The man next to her growled and pulled the woman, telling her to go home and cook and stop talking nonsense.
The woman blushed and lowered her head as she followed the man out of the Liu family's courtyard.
Qu Jingyao watched the two of them leave. Her eyes were like the coldest frost in the cold winter, with a chilling coldness and no warmth at all. She looked at the head of the Qu family with disdain.
"Does the clan leader think so too? If so, we'll ask to leave the clan on our own accord to avoid losing your reputation, which I don't know if it still exists. Isn't that better?"
Qu Hongsen's angry eyes were like burning flames, staring straight at Qu Jingyao and pointing his finger at her:
"You are so presumptuous! Not only do you disobey your elders, but you are also so reckless and dare to say anything so outrageous. If I don't open the ancestral hall today, you will be ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth."
After Qu Hongsen finished speaking, a hint of secret joy flashed in the gloating eyes of Mrs. Xu and her family.
"That's right. If you want to leave the clan, you can. According to the clan rules, you will be beaten. As long as you can survive it and repay the kindness of the clan, then we will agree to your request."
As soon as Old Lady Xu said this, the surrounding people started to talk. How could they have forgotten this? Which of the three of them, the mother and son of the Liu family, could withstand the family law?
Especially Qu Huaer felt so relieved when she saw her being punished. This little bitch finally got what she deserved.
When Liu heard that the clan leader was going to open the ancestral hall, she was frightened and quickly stepped forward to block her daughter, shouting coldly at everyone:
"Who dares? What qualifications do you have to make my son kneel in your Qu family ancestral hall..."
After hearing her words, Qu Hongsen's eyes narrowed suddenly. His originally calm eyes were filled with shock and alertness, and a sinister light flashed across them. He stared at Liu as if trying to find some clues from her face.
"Ms. Liu, you must think carefully before you speak. You are already the mother of two children after all. You should think more about them in everything you do." She emphasized the word "children".
Liu knew very well that there was a threat in his words. Thinking of her two children and what her husband had said to her before he died, she really didn't dare to gamble. The Qu family was just a group of jackals.
She closed her eyes helplessly and took a deep breath. The knuckles of her clenched hands turned white as she suppressed the anger in her heart.
Qu Hongsen's seemingly calm old face gradually became gloomy, his lips were tightly pursed, but his heart was beating fast. Liu, who was standing next to him, dodged his gaze and reached out to pull her old man's sleeve.
Even Mrs. Xu didn't expect Liu to blurt out such a thing...
She wondered if that dead son had said something to her...
Qu Qingchen and his sister looked at their mother with suspicion. At this moment, Liu's eyes were filled with determination. She raised her eyes without any retreat and looked directly at everyone in the Qu family, but there was an unspoken sarcasm in her eyes.
After a long stalemate, the Qu family's patriarch finally spoke:
"Ah... As the clan leader, I can't continue to make excuses. It seems like I'm bullying you orphans and widows.
But there is no order without rules. A country has its own laws, and a family has its own rules. Although our Qu family is not a famous family, it is also a large family that abides by the rules of our ancestors. Liu, you have really thought it through. You will still be punished with the ten strokes of the cane for asking to leave the family."
After Qu Hongsen finished speaking, he glanced at Liu with a gloomy face. Looking at her resolute expression, he angrily waved his sleeves and shouted to everyone to go to the Qu family ancestral hall.
