Chapter 1576: The sharp eldest miss ning (1)

Translator: 549690339 

After the second elder finished speaking, the master of the ning family looked at him for a long time without saying anything.

Master ning’s gaze made the second elder’s heart tighten, and then, his heart thumped! He jumped up and down. To be honest, he was very afraid of the family head’s current state. However, he answered every question the family head asked, so he didn’t feel that he had said anything wrong.

“Who else has anything to say?” After a long while, the ning family’s master asked with a frown. His eyes were deep and dark, causing the hearts of all the elders present to be in turmoil.

However, after everyone looked at each other, no one was willing to take over the ning family master’s problem.

Seeing this, the master of the ning family could only call out names.

“Ning Yuan! You tell me!” The master of the ning family said unexpectedly.

“Uh! What … Did the patriarch say?” Ning Yuan laughed bitterly in his heart. He had dealt with Leng ruoxue before and knew that she was not to be trifled with. Moreover, they were in front of the old ancestor. Hence, he was extremely unwilling to get involved in this matter.

However, his silence did not mean that he could escape.

“What are you guys doing here?” The master of the ning family lifted his eyelids slightly, his eyes sweeping over Ning Yuan twice as he said indifferently.

“We were all called here by the second elder. He said that there was an important matter that needed the patriarch to make a decision, so we followed him here.” Ning Yuan racked his brains and finally came up with an excuse that he didn’t think was offensive. Little did he know that second elder was still very angry.

“Yes! It was the second elder who informed us to come. ” As soon as Ning Yuan’s words fell, some elders immediately echoed.

“Hehe! I didn’t know that you, a substitute master and so many elders, needed me to make decisions for such a small matter. Then what did the ning family raise you for?” The master of the ning family narrowed his eyes and said unhappily.

“Master! Because this matter involves your goddaughter, we can’t make a decision. ” The second elder said with a slight grievance.

“Oh, really? Head butler, how many years have you been the head butler of the ning family?” The master of the ning family turned his eyes to the head butler who was half-kneeling in front of him.

“It ‘s, it’s been thirty years!” When the head butler heard the master’s question, he didn’t dare to waste even half a second and quickly replied. He was very nervous because he, who thought that he could figure out the master’s intentions, actually couldn’t tell what the master meant. Also, when the master heard that the person who harmed his sister was Leng ruoxue, he didn’t have much of a reaction. Therefore, he was at a loss and his little heart was extremely uneasy.

“After thirty years, how do you feel about your performance?” Master ning asked again. After he finished, he picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip of tea, and his tone sounded more like he was having a casual chat.

“This subordinate believes that I have always been diligent, and my loyalty to the ning family can be seen by the sun and moon.” The head butler thought for a moment and said. He was being reserved. He did not praise himself too much, nor did he undervalue himself.

“All of you, how did the head butler perform? Tell me one by one, don’t make me name you. ” The master of the ning family asked the other people present. He was speaking here and there without playing by the rules, which made the people present a little confused. He was too honest! They were afraid of offending people, but if they were too fake, they were afraid of offending the old ancestor. They were very conflicted. More importantly, they still didn’t understand what the family head meant.

“Let’s start with Ning Yuan!” The master of the ning family added, and then said no more.

“Uh! You’ve been loyal to the family for so many years, but you’ve made mistakes. ” Ning Yuan braced himself and said. After he finished speaking, he could not help but wipe the cold sweat on his forehead. To be honest, he really did not know how to say it. In fact, the head butler had a lot of problems, but he had never made a big mistake. In addition, the head butler was promoted by the second elder. Therefore, as long as he did not make a big mistake, he would give the second elder face.

“The head butler is absolutely loyal to the family, and he doesn’t shun his relatives when selecting talents.” With Ning Yuan’s lead, the other elders also knew what to say. Therefore, as soon as Ning Yuan finished speaking, an elder beside him rushed to say, afraid that someone else would say what he wanted to say.

In less than an hour, almost everyone present had given the head butler an evaluation. However, some of their evaluations were obviously just for show and did not contain any real content.

After hearing this, master ning turned his eyes to Ning Yan without a change in expression and said,””Yan ‘er, you tell me too!”

“Since father wants me to say it, then I won’t be polite.” Ning Yan stood up and said with a smile. Then, she changed the topic and talked about the Butler’s past.

“When the head butler first took over the position of head butler, he was indeed diligent and hardworking. However, after he got the hang of his work and got to know the relationships between all parties, he slacked off.” Ning Yan said calmly.

Who knew that just as she finished speaking, the head butler cried out,””Young miss! How could you say that about me? I’ve been the head butler for so many years, and everyone knows what kind of person I am. You can’t slander me. ”

“Slander you?” “Do I need to slander you?” Ning Yan laughed coldly. Ning Yan smiled faintly. Although she rarely meddled in the clan’s Affairs, she knew a thing or two about the head butler. The head butler was a typical bully who feared the strong. If he could speak to her in such a tone in front of the master, he might even flaunt his power in front of the other clan members!

“Uh!” The chief butler was at a loss for words and felt a little anxious. Looking at Ning Yan’s unkind expression, his heart thumped and he recalled what had happened two days ago. Although he wanted to shut Ning Yan up, he didn’t dare to do anything in front of the master. Moreover, if he really did that, he was afraid that it would only confirm his guilty conscience. At this thought, he smiled awkwardly and shut his mouth.

Seeing that the head butler had stopped talking, Ning Yan continued,””I won’t mention the previous matter. Let’s talk about the recent years! The head butler is becoming more and more fond of bullying the weak and fearing the strong. Not only that, he’s also nepotism. Many of the important positions in the family are occupied by his people. ”

Ning Yan’s words were like a bomb thrown into the crowd.

After hearing her words, the head Butler’s face turned even paler and he trembled in fear. Although Ning Yan didn’t say much, every word was piercing. Not only that, but Ning Yuan and the other elders also looked at him with a very thought-provoking gaze.

However, this was not the end.

“A few days ago, he took a fancy to the two brothers, Ning Hai and Ning Shan, and wanted them to marry his sister and daughter. The two brothers were unwilling, so he sent his confidant to threaten them. He even said that if they didn’t do as he said, brother Ning Hai would never be able to make a name for himself in the ning family.”

“The acting family head and all the elders should know what kind of woman ning Lihua is, right? Everyone hasn’t forgotten brother Ning Hai’s performance in the family competition, right? In the ning family, such a pair of brothers with a bright future were actually forced to marry. Wasn’t this ridiculous? I’d like to know, what gave you the courage to do that?”
