Mr. Jiang doesn't care how big a bombshell he drops.
Before everyone could recover from the bombshell news of his announcement of the Jiang family's successor, he then threw out the second thing: "Also, I have another thing I hope everyone can help me witness."
When he said this, he paused slightly, raised his eyes, and his gaze seemed to fall on Jiang Xianrou, who had not yet come to her senses.
There was regret, sadness and disappointment in his eyes, but there was no hesitation.
Old Master Jiang retracted his gaze, his eyes darkened slightly, and he said solemnly: "Jiang Xianrou has no respect for her elders, and she doesn't care about her younger sister. I don't have such a granddaughter, and the Jiang family doesn't have such a son... I invited everyone here today to let everyone help me bear witness. From today on, Jiang Xianrou is no longer a member of my Jiang family, and I have decided to cross her name out of the family tree!"
"Grandpa?!" Jiang Xianrou never thought that Grandpa Jiang's anger would burn her. Her mind went blank for a moment, and her face was filled with shock, surprise, and panic.
After she shouted at people in panic, she pinched her palms. The blood in her body froze. She stood there, trembling all over.
She originally thought that the old man had chosen her as the successor.
Unexpectedly, not only did she become Qiao Nian, but the old man also wanted to remove her name from the family tree.
For a large family, there is no punishment more severe than being removed from the family tree. Once a person is removed from the family tree, she will no longer be able to enjoy the protection and glory brought by the family.
The Jiang family is not a top-tier family in Beijing, but at least it is a middle-class family.
The Jiang family cannot compare to the Ye family, which is a family of nobles. Compared with some of the families below, it is still an existence that many families can only dream of.
Over the years, she has enjoyed a lot of honor brought by her family.
She was able to study in a prestigious university and learn from domestic authoritative experts, which was more or less due to the help of her family.
There are many people around her who are willing to flatter her and lick her knees because of the family relationship behind her...
Once she was expelled from the family.
Jiang Xianrou couldn't imagine the scene of herself falling from the clouds into the abyss. When she thought of herself falling into the mud, her shoulders trembled, her pupils shook violently, and she almost couldn't breathe. She couldn't believe that these words were said by Grandpa Jiang.
Grandpa has always loved her very much.
From childhood to adulthood, she has always been treated as the apple of the family's eye, and she has always gotten what she wanted.
Even Jiang Yao, who has always been better than her and entered Tianchen as an adult, cannot compare to her in this respect.
Not to mention Jiang Li, who everyone has always looked down upon, and whose status at home cannot be compared to hers!
Jiang Xianrou couldn't figure out why Mr. Jiang suddenly wanted to remove her from the family tree. Her face was as white as paper, pale and fragile, and there was no blood on her lips. She stood there, feeling like a clown, facing the stunned looks from all directions...
Yuan Qing was also dumbfounded: "Brother, did you make a mistake? Why did you remove Xianrou from the family tree? She has been working hard for our family, applying to a prestigious school and studying with Professor Liang. I heard that Xianrou is also preparing for the recruitment assessment of the Master's Laboratory. With Xianrou's ability, it is only a matter of time for her to enter the Ninth Institute."
"Is Jiusuo a place that ordinary people can enter? If Xianrou enters Jiusuo, it will bring honor to the family, right?"
