The Third Elder who came with the Great Elder was also dumbfounded. He did not know about Ye Xun and the Great Elder's plan. He did not see Ye Qingtang before the birthday banquet and thought that Ye Qingtang finally came to her senses and knew to seek refuge in the Si Family.
However, he did not expect that …
Why did this Great Madam return?
However …
The Third Elder quickly sensed that something was wrong. He looked at Ye Xun, who was kneeling in front of Ye Qingtang, in astonishment.
What was going on?
Why did this little fox, Ye Xun, kneel in front of Ye Qingtang in front of everyone!
What the hell!
"What are you all doing?" The Great Elder asked coldly with a dark expression.
Ye Xun secretly heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that the Great Elder had finally arrived. She immediately looked up with tears in her eyes and said, "Today is the Great Elder's birthday banquet. I know that my words do not carry much weight, and I am grateful for the Ye Family's kindness in raising me up. I will do my best to do everything well, but I made a slip of the tongue and offended Eldest Young Lady …"
As she spoke, large teardrops rolled down from the corners of Ye Xun's eyes. She looked pitiful and made Ye Qingtang look even more domineering.
The Great Elder was shocked that Ye Qingtang had returned, but he could only suppress his anger no matter how furious he was in front of so many guests. He glanced at the crying Ye Xun and then at Ye Qingtang, who was standing at the side. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Ye Xun, you have been very busy these few days with the birthday banquet, but you should not overstep your boundaries no matter what. Go and receive your punishment."
The Great Elder's words seemed to be extremely fair, but his words resolved Ye Xun's fate of being chased out of the Ye Family, and she only needed to receive her punishment.
Ye Qingtang scoffed and looked at the Great Elder. Ye Xun was a scheming person, and the Great Elder would naturally not give up on such a chess piece easily.
However …
"I'm afraid that the Great Elder is mistaken. Ye Xun is not a member of the Ye Family. Why does she need to receive punishment?" Ye Qingtang chuckled.
The Great Elder frowned slightly. "Qingtang, Ye Xun is indeed in the wrong, but as the Eldest Young Lady of the Ye Family, you should be tolerant to show the Ye Family's magnanimity. Moreover, this is just a slip of the tongue. Why do you need to involve so many people and disturb the guests? Isn't it disrespectful of the Ye Family?"
Tolerant?
She really wanted to laugh.
"Then, according to the Great Elder, does that mean that our Ye Clan is going to break the rules? Your servant is free to overstep his bounds. "
The First Elder's expression was a little ugly. Indeed, according to the rules of the aristocratic families, it wasn't appropriate to keep someone like Ye Xun. However, Ye Xun's intelligence was highly appreciated by the First Elder. If he could keep Ye Xun by Ye You's side, it would be a great help to Ye You. He definitely couldn't let her go so easily.
If this was in private, the Great Elder would not even bother to respond to Ye Qingtang's words. However, now that there were so many guests and so many family clans in Lin Town, the Great Elder had no choice but to speak to Ye Qingtang in a fair manner.
"In that case, how does Eldest Young Lady intend to deal with Ye Xun?" The Great Elder was unwilling to reveal his schemes in front of the aristocratic families of Lin Town and could only ask.
Ye Qingtang smiled. "I've already said just now that Ye Xun is not a member of the Ye Family. It's enough that the Ye Family has raised her for so many years. I have no intention of punishing her. It's fine as long as she is not allowed to enter the Ye Family from today onwards."
Ye Qingtang's words made the Third Elder secretly speechless. He truly admired Ye Qingtang's method of taking drastic measures. No matter how unwilling the Great Elder was, he could not fall out with Ye Qingtang in front of everyone.
