Chapter 16 Public Humiliation

Listening to their words, Xu Yin's face could not help but change again and again. If she had not been in a hurry to go to the meeting hall to attend the clan meeting, she would have ordered people to tie up these guys and beat them on the spot.

On the contrary, Su Chen said softly: "Aunt, why bother with ignorant villains? Don't get angry and hurt yourself."

In the martial arts world, ignorant and foolish people who follow the crowd can only have one end in the end - self-destruction.

So Su Chen didn't bother with them, and didn't have the leisure to bother with them.

Soon, the three of them came to the meeting hall.

The Jiang family meeting hall is a spacious and bright rectangular hall.

When the three arrived, four tables had been set up in the hall, with a total of fifty or sixty seats beside the tables.

The seats were basically full of people, and it was very lively.

"Second sister-in-law came late today!"

The speaker was a man in gorgeous clothes sitting at the middle table, with a big beard on his face, looking rough.

He spoke in an unusually loud voice, and this shout immediately attracted the attention of the whole audience.

Xu Yin's expression remained unchanged, and she said lightly: "Thank you for your concern, third brother, but now there is still a quarter of an hour before the clan meeting starts. In any case, I am not late, so third brother, there is no need to shout so loudly, right?"

"Haha, second sister-in-law is really too worried! The second brother is not here, can't I care about him for him?" The rough man shrugged, still smiling on his face, but his eyes were full of sarcasm.

Su Chen stood by and looked at the rough man, and his face slowly matched the memory.

Jiang He, the third master of the Jiang family.

One of the current rulers of the Jiang family.

"We don't need your fake kindness." Jiang Tingyi was outspoken and couldn't help but retorted.

"Tingyi, this is your fault."

At this moment, a slow voice suddenly came from the side, "When the elders are talking, you, a junior, interrupting them is already impolite, and you are still talking back to the elders, which really makes us uncles feel disappointed."

Su Chen looked sideways.

The man who spoke was dressed like a middle-aged scholar, waving a fan, with two mustaches, and looked gentle and refined.

His seat was also the middle table, and also the top position.

Su Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, and he was also very familiar with this face.

Jiang family's eldest uncle Jiang Shan.

He is also one of the current leaders of the Jiang family.

The deceased old patriarch Jiang had four sons, namely Jiang Shan, the eldest uncle of the Jiang family, Jiang Hai, the second uncle Jiang He, and Jiang Feng.

Among them, the second uncle Jiang Hai is Xu Yin's husband. He is talented and upright, and was once deeply loved by the Jiang family.

But things never go as planned. Jiang Hai disappeared unexpectedly during a family mission ten years ago.

After Jiang Hai disappeared, the power that originally belonged to him was divided between the eldest uncle Jiang Shan and the third uncle Jiang Hai, forming the current situation of the Jiang family being two-legged.

As for the fourth uncle Jiang Feng, because he lost an arm accidentally when he was a child, he was not considered a healthy warrior, so he has always been relatively taciturn and is considered a marginal figure.

Since the death of the old patriarch Jiang, the Jiang family has not yet selected a patriarch. In the past, Jiang Shan, Jiang Hai, and Jiang He jointly held power. After Jiang Hai's accident, Jiang Shan and Jiang He jointly held power.

"Bah, who cares if you are cold or not, I can't stand your hypocritical faces the most..." Jiang Tingyi was about to continue, but suddenly Xu Yin grabbed her arm and shook her head at her.

The meaning was very clear, asking her not to say anything more.

"Mom, you are always like this..." Jiang Tingyi was very depressed. The eldest uncle and the third uncle were not good people. They were sweet-mouthed and treacherous. They took advantage of the fact that they were orphans and widows to squeeze them in every way. Their purpose was nothing more than to squeeze them out of the Jiang family.

She had seen through them a long time ago, but her mother never let her confront them in person.

"Tingyi, these are none of your business." Xu Yin shook her head. The grievances between adults should not be borne by these teenagers.

Third Master Jiang He laughed: "Second sister-in-law, your daughter must be well educated. How can she get married in the future if she is so outspoken and disrespectful!"

As soon as the voice fell, Xu Yin suddenly looked up, and a sharp light flashed in her eyes.

However, it was only a flash, and Xu Yin quickly looked at her daughter calmly and said: "Okay, the clan meeting is about to start, Tingyi sit down, Xiaochen sits too."

Su Chen responded, and sat at the table in the middle with Xu Yin and Jiang Tingyi.

Only the direct descendants of the Jiang family can sit at this table. In addition to Xu Yin and her daughter, there are also the eldest uncle Jiang Shan's family, the third uncle Jiang He's family, and the fourth uncle Jiang Feng.

Xu Yin whispered to Su Chen to explain everyone's identity.

Sitting next to Jiang Shan are his son and daughter, Jiang Mingxuan and Jiang Yuewu.

Sitting next to Jiang He is his only son Jiang Minghao.

Jiang Feng is not married, and has no children. He is alone.

"Second sister-in-law." At this time, the thunderous voice of the third uncle Jiang He sounded again, "Whose kid is sitting next to you? Why is he so strange? Our Jiang family meeting does not allow outsiders to participate!"

Xu Yin said frankly: "I was just about to say this. Su Chen is my nephew from my mother's side, just like my own son. He will live in the Jiang family in the future, so I brought him here to introduce him to everyone."

"Hmph!"

After hearing what Xu Yin said, Jiang He just snorted in displeasure, but couldn't say anything.

After all, although Jiang Hai has been missing for many years, Xu Yin is still the second wife of the Jiang family, so she doesn't have the power to take in a nephew from her mother's side.

At this time, the uncle Jiang Shan slowly replied: "It turns out that he is the nephew from my second brother's side. We naturally welcome him. But my second brother's side, your nephew is not a direct member of the Jiang family. It is not in accordance with the rules to sit at this table. Let him leave this table."

Xu Yin was stunned. She didn't think of this before she came.

Su Chen is indeed not a direct member of the Jiang family. Jiang Shan's request for Su Chen to leave this table is not excessive.

Xu Yin couldn't refute this point.

She frowned, looked at the other three tables where the collateral clan members sat, and said, "But there are no empty seats at the other tables."

"Isn't there another table there?" Third Master Jiang He pointed to a lonely single table in the corner.

Xu Yin looked over and saw that the small table was covered with dust and there were some sundries on it. It was obvious that it was just a table for sundries and was not for people to sit on.

At that moment, even if Xu Yin had a good temper, she couldn't help but get angry: "What are you kidding? Is that table for people to sit on?"

Jiang He snorted coldly: "I just asked you not to break the rules of the Jiang family!"

"Whoever wants to sit at that table can sit there, anyway, Xiaochen won't sit there!" Xu Yin also said coldly.

Do you think she is stupid? Jiang He is obviously humiliating Su Chen, how could she agree?

The two of them were deadlocked, and the atmosphere in the meeting room gradually became weird.
