At the Ji familrs old residence.
āThen, Elders, letās begin,ā Ji Xiao said with a smile. The Righteousness Hall buzzed with discussion.
āl think itāll work!ā
āYeah, dragging it out isnāt a good idea.ā
āThe former Patriarchās whereabouts are unknown. We need to choose a new Patriarch to lead the family forwardā¦ā
Ji Xiao looked around and then spoke to the elders. āAlright, which elder would like to go first?ā
Ji Hongyuan stood up unhurriedly and then turned his head in Ji Ziyinās direction. āl support Ziyin taking over the Patriarch position.ā
Ji Ziyin met his gaze and smiled respectfully before bowing. āThank you for believing in me, Sixth Elder.ā
The people who went to the Tianshui Private Clubhouse yesterday had their own considerations upon seeing this scene.
The elders spoke one by one.
āIn that case, Iāll share my thoughts. I also support Ji Ziyin as the next Patriarch. At the very least, she has some research results on black gunpowder.ā
He said this for Xie Yun to hear.
Of course, Xie Yun knew their plan. She took a deep breath and looked at the few neutral elders.
āFourth Uncle, do you also think that a person who has been expelled from the family tree can become the next Patriarch?ā
The old man who was called out by her looked stunned. He did not dare to look her in the eye and hesitated for a moment before saying, āWhat they said makes sense. But according to the rules, she indeed doesnāt have the right to become the Patriarchā¦
Xie Yun unclenched her fists and her expression softened. Then, she firmly said, āThen letās wait for Ji Nan to come back!ā
Everyone in the Righteousness Hall looked at her.
Xie Yun straightened her neck slightly like a proud swan and looked around at these uncles and elders who harbored ill intentions. Then, she said with a graceful expression, āJi Nan will be here in an hour. Uncles, you shouldnāt be in a hurry, right?ā
She did not wait for Ji Hongyuan and the others to answer and continued, āOf course, if all of you plan to go ahead with this, we, orphan and widow, have nothing to say!ā
āWhat are you talking about?ā
āYeah, we didnāt mean that.ā
āWhat will people think of us if word gets out?ā
The most excited elders looked at each other while internally blaming her for saying the āwrongā words.
Xie Yun stood her ground and withstood all the pressure without a change in expression, unyielding and refusing to break!
āSince thatās not what you mean, everyone, wait for an hour for Ji Nan to get here. Otherwise, if the elders insist on finalizing the matter, I can only think that his elders donāt want to see him return!ā
What could the elders say at this point?
All of them were rendered speechless by Xie Yunās provocation.
Ji Ziyinās eyes turned cold as she tilted her head and gave Old Madam Xie a look.
Old Madam Xie immediately understood and interrupted her, breaking Xie Yun e s imposing manner. āHow can you speak to an elder like that? The Ji family elders are thinking for the familyās sake! Iām Ji Nanās grandmother, and my heart aches for him, but I know that this kind of thing canāt be dealt with emotions alone. What will Lingfeng think of you? Will he be peaceful up there?ā
The elders found it difficult to speak due to Xie Yunās status.
But Old Madam Xie was different.
She would always be Xie Yunās biological mother.
With a mother criticizing her child for doing wrong, would others feel burdened?
