Imperial Commander: His Pretty Wife Is Spoiled Rotten

Chapter 520: A Small Leak Will Sink a Great Ship

Chen Lixue had been under the impression that Liang Xiuqin was in charge of the Yun family.

She had wanted to stay and confront her head-on. She’d thought that she might even use some underhanded tactics to accomplish what she’d set out to do.

Unexpectedly, however, it was not Liang Xiuqin who was in charge now, but the second sister-in-law, who seemed timid on the surface but was actually quite tough.

If it had been Liang Xiuqin in charge, she could have exploited the longtime enmity between them to try and gain Yun Yuanfeng’s support.

But now she was faced with an unfamiliar opponent who had domineeringly intimidated her right from the start. She was perplexed and didn’t know what her next moves were going to be.

So what if Yun Xi was the eldest young madame? If Liang Xiuqin hadn’t robbed her of her man, she would have married Yun Yuanfeng long ago.

How else could Liang Xiuqin have gotten the position of the Deputy Director’s wife?

Her daughter should be the righteous young madame of the Yun family.

Since Chen Lixue had been brought into the house by Yun Yuanfeng, Yao Ying hadn’t forgotten to ask Yun Yuanfeng’s opinion after laying down the law to Chen Lixue. She really acted like the master of the house.

“Big brother, am I right?”

Yun Yuanfeng had always had a huge ego, so now, upon seeing Yao Ying being so considerate toward him and seeing that he had achieved his goal of having Chen Lixue stay without even having to open his mouth, naturally he was happy.

“Yes, that’s right. How considerate of you. Now that you’re the master of the house, naturally all the arrangements are up to you.”

Now that they’d come up with such a good excuse allowing Chen Lixue to stay, he didn’t even need to say anything. How could he not agree?

Everything had gone so well that it couldn’t have been more perfect.

“But there are a few things I must get straight right at the start. In this family, there are differences between the hosts and the guest. It is better for everyone to know their places right at the beginning. Yun Xi is the eldest granddaughter and the eldest young madame, so she will be the heiress of the Yun family in the future. My current authority will also be handed over to her in the near future. If I’m not here, Yun Xi will have full authority to represent me. As for my sister-in-law and Yun Xi’s newly arrived aunt, you two should not forget your places when you talk or do anything. There are so many people in the family, and if something happens and trouble arises, it will only be detrimental to big brother. After all, with the upcoming promotion after New Year’s, everyone should be more cautious. What do you think, big brother?”

With Yao Ying’s reminder, Yun Yuanfeng immediately realized that he really shouldn’t be too reckless in the near future.

Even if he really were to have an affair with Chen Lixue, he had to set things straight with his family first; otherwise, it could ruin his future.

Listening to Yao Ying, Yun Yuanfeng felt secretly frightened and broke out into a cold sweat. Liang Xiuqin and Chen Lixue, however, had been agitated by Yao Ying’s remarks.

Both of them felt resentful. One refused to accept that she had been robbed of her position as the master of the house and degraded to the point where she had to yield sovereignty to her daughter.

The other was dissatisfied that all the benefits that should have fallen to her daughter had now fallen to her rival’s daughter. She had to yield to that wretched girl Yun Xi now.

During the past ten years, she had been in an authoritative position over that wretched girl Yun Xi. And now Yun Xi had the right to lord it over her and intimidate her...?

But this was the Yun family. She had to bear this humiliation if she wanted to stay.

A small leak will sink a great ship.

After she wins over Yun Yuanfeng in the future, she will immediately kick all these b*tches out of the Yun family!

Thinking of how they would then all be beggars on the streets, Chen Lixue felt immense gratification.

...

After her goal had been achieved, Yun Xi told Yun Yuanfeng that she was planning to go to a neighboring area’s hot springs to gather with friends during the three-day holiday break on New Year’s Day.

Having settled Chen Lixue’s affairs, Yun Yuanfeng was in a good mood, and, with a wave of his hand, he agreed, even giving her 200 yuan in travel expenses.

Yun Ziling immediately looked envious and rushed forward to say that she wanted to go have fun as well.

Yun Yuanfeng glanced at Liang Xiuqin, who was sitting next to Yun Ziling, and suddenly lost his good mood. “It’s cold now, and since you’re in poor health, stay at home. Don’t go running around.”

“Dad, you’re so partial. Why can my sister go out, but I can’t?”

“Didn’t you recently tell me that your sister had jinxed you and caused you to have a heart attack? In that case, stay at home and recuperate.”

“...” Feeling aggrieved and annoyed, Yun Ziling grit her teeth and glared at Yun Xi resentfully.

Pretending to be sick and trying to frame Yun Xi earlier had not only been unsuccessful, but now it had also gotten in the way of her going out and having fun. She had really shot herself in the foot.
