Chapter 1864

Chapter 1864: The Fan Family Is Indeed Dead Chapter 1864: The Fan Family Is Indeed Dead Editor: Henyee Translations First Madam Fan paid no heed to Fan Ruyin’s protests as she retreated to the safety of the mansion.

She promptly instructed her trusted servant to escort Fan Ruyin back to her quarters and ensure she remained there.

Fuming with indignation, Fan Ruyin attempted to voice her grievances to her mother, but her resolve faltered.

“Who are you to confine me like this?

You’re nothing but a conniving, malicious woman!” First Madam Fan’s smirk held a chilling edge.

“I am the matriarch of the Fan Family, the wife of the eldest son.

I granted you leniency, but don’t mistake it for weakness.

What entitlement do you have to raise your voice against me?” “A malicious woman like you has no right to lecture me!

Your lack of manners is appalling!” “You dareaEUR”” First Madam Fan’s retort was cut short as she motioned for the servants to remove Fan Ruyin.

“Escort her away and ensure she’s kept in check.

If you fail, don’t expect any leniency from me!” The servants, startled by the exchange, swiftly complied.

They understood that despite Fan Ruyin’s status, First Madam Fan held the authority as the rightful mistress of the Fan Family.

Meanwhile, First Madam Fan approached First Old Master Fan with a somber expression, recounting the events with a sense of dismay.

Upon hearing her account, First Old Master Fan’s temper flared.

He couldn’t help but question his decision to allow Fan Ruyin to apologize.

It seemed she had transcended mere stubbornness and ventured into sheer folly.

“How could they possibly save face for Madam Shao?” Lixia and Liqiu fumed in the east courtyard of the Prefect’s residence, their voices laced with indignation.

Qiao Xuan’s smile was tinged with satisfaction.

“It appears the downfall of the Fan Family is inevitable.” With Fan Ruyin’s abrasive demeanor, it was no surprise how many enemies she had accrued over the years.

She seemed destined for comeuppance.

The Fan Family, though esteemed in Anze Province, was not without its transgressions.

Their reputation for fairness was dubious, especially with Fan Ruyin’s involvement.

Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan felt little remorse about taking action against them.

Their vendetta against the Fan Clan would serve as a cautionary tale.

In contrast, Mrs.

Guan, despite her own troublesomeness, exercised more discretion.

Following the banquet debacle, she wisely refrained from stirring further trouble.

Too intimidated to confront the Fan family directly, she opted to keep her distance.

Without solid evidence, her grievances would likely fall on deaf ears.

Neither Qiao Xuan nor Shao Yunduan could intervene on her behalf, and Mrs.

Jia remained steadfast in her own convictions.

Without irrefutable proof, Mrs.

Guan’s plight remained unresolved.

In plain terms, the lawsuit was a mess, mired in ambiguity and subjectivity.

Its outcome hinged solely on the whims of the higher-ups.

Mrs.

Guan could only begrudgingly swallow her pride, seething with both anger and despair.

A bracelet worth 400 taels of silver, discarded in a fit of rage, served as a painful reminder of her folly.

The ensuing humiliation and frustration left her empty-handed.

She dared not confide in her Old Master, fearing another round of reprimands.

In her desperation, Mrs.

Guan harbored hopes for the Fan Family’s supremacy over the mountain bandits.

If they prevailed, Shao and Madam Shao would be rendered powerless, and Mrs.

Jia would lose her influence.

However, Mrs.

Jia and her husband’s lack of foresight astounded her.

How long could Shao remain as the Prefect?

Their future in Anze Province was uncertain, with no contingency plan in place.

Unexpectedly, Fan Ruyin humbled herself the following day, kneeling at the back office entrance in a state of contrition.
