Chapter 622 Peasant Woman 51
Tan You smiled: "For many things, if you are more open, you won't arouse suspicion from others. If you want to hide something, the outside world will only have more speculation."

"We are the victims, the ones who suffered. Why should we endure it? At the same time, this is also a way to let everyone know that no one can rely on their status to act recklessly."

"Don't mention that Chen Cui's last name is Chen. Even if she is my biological daughter, as long as she has committed a crime, she will still be tried."

"The law is supreme and no one is above the law."

The Third Grandfather nodded: "Madam has a righteous heart."

Tan You smiled: "We invited the elders here today to serve as witnesses. From today on, Chen Cui will be removed from the Chen family tree. Chen Cui is no longer a member of the Chen family."

"She will have to pay for the sins she committed, even if she has been hiding for so many years."

Chen Cui glared at Tan You with almost resentment: "You will not have a good ending! After all these years, you are still very annoying. I tell you, even if I become a ghost, I will not let you go! My parents will not forgive you either!"

The smile on Tan You's face grew bigger and bigger: "Many people talk about ghosts and hell, but in my opinion, these are all bullshit. Instead of worrying about whether your parents will forgive me, why don't you think about how you are going to explain to your parents?"

Her voice became much softer, like the tongue of a poisonous snake whispering in Chen Cui's ear: "The daughter they favored seduced a married man in order to live the life of a rich wife."

"He used a surrogate mother to ascend to the throne. Not only did he kill the innocent wife, he even concealed the truth and let this little bastard take the place of the eldest son. Their own son and grandson both died because of you."

"Think about it, if you really see your parents underground, how will you tell them?"

"How are you going to tell them? You are such a despicable, vicious and shameless woman?"

"Your eldest brother and your nephew died because of you, and your biological parents also passed away. If ghosts really exist, how will you face them?"

Tan You was smiling the whole time, but the words she said were not so pleasant to the ears. Anyway, everyone present had the same feeling after hearing them: Madam, you are so cruel, you are killing people and destroying their hearts.

Chen Cui was stunned by Tan You's words. She didn't expect Tan You to be so eloquent now. She moved back a lot, her eyes full of fear: "You...you are not Chen Wangshi, you...you are a monster..."

Tan You smiled and said, "You can't argue with me, so you use the excuse that I'm a monster to attack me? Sure, whoever brings it up can provide evidence. You say I'm a monster, so show me the evidence."

"Just like me, I know you are not a good person, I have prepared all the evidence clearly for you. Now you want to bite me after just one word?"

Chen Cui became a little more courageous: "My...my sister-in-law is the most gentle and kind...she can't even read a few words, and you...how can you look like an ordinary peasant woman? If you are not a monster, what are you?"

Tan You leaned back in his chair: "And then?"

Chen Cui immediately got up and said, "You are a monster. I don't know when you possessed my sister-in-law. We should sentence you to death and bring my sister-in-law back!"

She even spoke more and more fluently, and had already imagined the scene where her biological son would become the eldest son after dealing with Tan You... Tan You looked at the Chen clan members: "Does everyone think so?"

The third grandfather was the first to object: "Of course not, you are the eldest lady of our Chen clan. If it weren't for you, how could we be where we are today?"

Chen Tianshui also hurriedly followed up: "Yes, yes, that's what we all think. The eldest lady has been very kind to the clan. If it weren't for you, the clan would have been exterminated a long time ago. How could we have the peaceful life we ​​have today?"

The others also expressed their opinions. Chen Cui looked at Chen Xi, who pursed her lips and said, "She is my mother. My mother has worked so hard for us. In my heart, she is just my mother, not some monster."

Chen Cui didn't expect Chen Xi to say that. After a moment's pause, she suddenly burst into laughter. "How funny! You two treat a lonely ghost who came from nowhere as a treasure, but you don't care about Chen Wangshi at all...poor woman..."

"Shut up!" Third Grandpa was furious. The usually smiling old man looked particularly scary at this moment: "What qualifications do you have to stand here and speak nonsense? You are no longer a daughter of the Chen family. How can you be qualified to criticize the eldest lady of the clan?"

Tan You waved his hand and said, "Take her, Qi Yaozong, the midwife and the others to the prison. It would be a waste to say one more word to such a person. As for Qi Chen, take him to the prison as well and wait for interrogation."

After Chen Cui and the others were taken away, Tan You looked at the old couple of the Zhang family, and finally his eyes fell on An Wen. An Wen stood up unconsciously, and he looked at Tan You with a very hesitant look. After hesitating for a long time, he spoke: "Aunt... Madam..."

Tan You did not correct his change of words: "You are now an adult. Even if you are not of Chen Cui's bloodline, the Chen family still raised you. Even the clan accepted you and trained you to be outstanding."

An Wen bowed his head and saluted: "Yes, I have grown into what I am today because of the careful teachings of my aunt, the clan leader and the elders. An Wen is deeply grateful and will never forget it."

Tan You nodded slightly: "You came to the Chen family by mistake. The culprits are Chen Cui and Qi Yaozong. The Chen family has already paid the price. The old couple of the Chen family, Chen Xi's parents, and eldest brother all died because of this."

"But we cannot deny that the bigger troublemaker is Qi Yaozong. Qi Yaozong was the one you and your wife chose for your only daughter. It was you who misjudged the person and let the evil one in."

Tan You knew that what she said was very inhumane, but she couldn't put all the blame on the Chen family. When a man and a woman commit adultery, no one is innocent.

Not to mention that Qi Yaozong and Chen Cui have been in love for many years, so Tan You didn't think she was wrong when she said that Qi Yaozong was the main culprit.

The old man of the Zhang family also agreed with Tan You's statement: "Yes, my husband and I didn't know how to judge people and let the wolf into the house, which led to the disaster we are facing now."

Their Zhang family lost their only daughter, but the Chen family lost four people, and their grandson was taught so well by the Chen family. Even if it was the simplest exchange of one life for another, the old couple of the Zhang family felt that the price paid by the Chen family was even heavier.

Tan You nodded slightly: "It's good that you agree with this. An Wen has grown up well now. Since he is Madam Zhang's child, he should recognize his ancestors and serve them until the end of his life."

An Wen also bowed and said, "Yes, madam, can I come to see you again in the future?"

Tan You asked back, "Why not? After all, I spent a lot of effort to teach you. Over the years, I have treated you and Mingguang Chenxi the same."
