302 Remediating The Qiao Family

“Brother, it’s all Qiao Yue’s fault. I wouldn’t have broken the school rules otherwise.” Qiao Xin explained anxiously.

They were now in complete fallout with Qiao Yue, so they must get Qiao Jing, who could help them, on their side. Or their future in the Qiao family would be unbearable.

“Qiao Jing, I need to tell you this today. Qiao Yue can’t stay in the Qiao family anymore.”

Tao Xi grabbed Qiao Jing’s arm.

Qiao Jing looked at his mother with a cold expression.

Tao Xi felt that if she hadn’t given birth to Qiao Jing, he would have shrugged her off immediately.

This Qiao Yue was so capable. He seemed to have cast a spell on the family, adults and children alike…

“You’ve seen what happened. Since Qiao Yue arrived, your grandfather who was about to recover, fell ill again. Because of him, your second uncle had also been kicked out of the house, gone astray and almost went to jail.”

“Pfft.” Qiao Yue snorted.

“First aunt, you don’t have to be so fond of distorting the truth. Qiao Yi, Mahad and Andy’s collaboration was already established a few months ago. Second uncle deserves to go to jail, it’s not my fault.”

Qiao Yue walked up to Tao Xi. “As for why he’s gone astray, you really don’t know?”

The elders in the Qiao family were responsible for fostering Qiao Yi’s greedy personality.

“You’re saying that it’s our fault?” Qiao Li stood up abruptly but fell to the ground again because of the pain in his foot.

The several hundred-pound fatty fell to the ground again with a loud thud.

Qiao Yue chuckled and looked at Qiao Li disdainfully. “You should get your leg checked out.”

“You’re too much! Qiao Yue, how can you talk to your third uncle like that!” The third madam stood up as well and glared at Qiao Yue, her usual gentle façade gone. “Qiao Yue, you were the one who pushed your third uncle. I’ll call the police and report you for hurting your family. Just wait to be sent back to Nanshan Village!”

“Says who?”

The man’s voice was like a stabilizing force, and the whole room fell silent. Everyone looked at Qiao Jing in surprise.

What was this child saying?

Tao Xi looked at her son in shock. She never thought that he would side with Qiao Yue.

“Qiao Yue is not related to you by blood, but Qiao Li is your third uncle.”

“Qiao Xin, you’ll be punished to clean the ancestral hall for six months. Go to the track tonight and finish an eight-kilometer run. Mother, you’ve worked hard as the household manager. Please handover your duties temporarily to Qiao Yue.”

“What?” Tao Xi exclaimed.

It was fine that she wasn’t the household manager, but to hand her power over to Qiao Yue? Wasn’t it a blatant slap to her face?

She had been in charge for more than ten years and had never given up her power. Now, she must hand it over to a young man who had not even graduated from college?

“It’s almost winter vacation. Let’s leave the household management to Qiao Yue and Qiao Ying.” Qiao Jing ignored Tao Xi’s incredulous look and continued, “Mom, I’ve booked you a ticket to the Maldives. You can rest there for a week, and we’ll have a good chat when you are back.”

Tao Xi fell to the ground as if all her strength had been sucked out of her. She never thought that her son would one day ask her to leave the house and give up her right as the household manager.

“Third uncle and third aunt, please stay home this week and recuperate.”

“You brat, who gave you the right?” Qiao Li stood up to lunge at Qiao Jing.

However, there seemed to be a sharp pain in his foot and he fell to the ground with a loud cry.

Qiao Yue felt the floor shake where she was standing.

“What right do you have to make such arrangements? Imprisoning your elders, mistreating your sister, and even chasing your own mother out of the house? Just wait for your punishment when the old master wakes up!” Qiao Li shouted as he stared at Qiao Yue resentfully.

“And you, when the old master wakes up, I’ll ask him to send you back to Nanshan Village!”

Qiao Yue bent down and whispered something in Qiao Li’s ear. Qiao Li’s eyes widened. “Don’t you dare!”

“Of course, I dare.” Qiao Yue stood up and crossed her arms.

“I’m the head of the Qiao family now, of course I have the right.” Qiao Jing continued coldly, “Too many things have happened to the Qiao family lately. I’ll take this time to remediate the family.”

He then looked at Qiao Li trembling on the ground.

Qiao Li shivered under Qiao Jing’s gaze.
