Imperial Commander: His Pretty Wife Is Spoiled Rotten

Chapter 519: A Threatening Warning

After Yun Xi had invited Chen Lixue to stay for dinner, Liang Xiuqin couldn’t kick her out.

Taking off her jacket, Yun Xi walked over to the sofa, where Yao Ying handed her a cup of hot tea.

“How long do you plan to stay in Jingdu, aunt? Will you stay in a hotel? Or do you plan to rent an apartment to take care of my cousin until my cousin finishes the college entrance examination?”

The college entrance examination was life-changing and the most critical time that determined one’s future.

Every parent hoped that their child would get a good grade on the exam. Many students in Jing High School came from other cities.

Parents in other cities would rent houses near the school in the last few months to take care of their child until their child successfully completed the college entrance examination.

Yun Xi’s guidance gave Chen Lixue a perfect excuse to stay.

Chen Lixue didn’t seem to have expected Yun Xi to ask this question and at first was taken aback, but then she chuckled. “I haven’t decided yet. I have to check out your cousin’s situation first.”

Liang Xiuqin was afraid that she was going to want to live with the Yun family, so she quickly said, “Xinyi is fine in Jingdu. If you’re finished visiting your daughter, you should go home early for New Year’s. The countryside isn’t that different than Jingdu. You should go back early to prepare for New Year’s.”

When Liang Xiuqin spoke, her every word emphasized that Chen Lixue came from the countryside, and that she should scram back to the countryside.

After hearing this, Chen Lixue’s expression got very ugly. She grit her teeth and glared at Liang Xiuqin. Then she looked at Yun Yuanfeng, apparently for help.

Yun Xi watched them fighting among each other with amusement, then she laughed and interjected.

“Since my aunt rarely comes to Jingdu, she should stay a few more days. And, since my aunt took care of me in the countryside for so many years, I, as the Yun family’s eldest young madame, must treat her with courtesy now that she’s come to Jingdu. Why not let aunt stay in the Yun family’s house, so she won’t need to rent a house outside? My cousin is also here, so it would be more convenient for her to take care of my cousin.”

“No, I don’t agree. If she wants to take care of Liang Xinyi, then let them go out and rent a house. Our house is small and can’t accommodate that many people. There’s definitely no room here.”

As soon as Yun Xi had said that, Liang Xiuqin jumped in with a counter-argument to stop her.

“Mom, my aunt took care of me for more than ten years. Out of gratitude, we should do our best to welcome her. Wouldn’t it be too heartless of you to send aunt away like this?”

When she said this, Yun Xi glanced at her second aunt. “Furthermore, second aunt is in charge now, so she has the final say. I think that Grandpa will also support my decision. We can’t let others think our family has no affection and cares nothing about our poor relatives from the countryside. What do you think, Grandpa?”

The old man, who had always ignored these sorts of drama, was now dragged into the water by Yun Xi. After hearing her polite and courteous words, he nodded and was very displeased with Liang Xiuqin’s selfishness.

“A visitor is a guest, and she’s also a relative of your family. After taking care of Yun Xi for so many years, our family can’t be that heartless. It’s just a few months of living here, so it doesn’t matter.”

Yao Ying agreed with the old man’s words and stood up. “If that’s the case, then she can live here. It’s just an extra pair of chopsticks.”

Yao Ying looked at Chen Lixue and said nonchalantly, “Although there are no guest rooms at present, Liang Xinyi’s room has a wide bed. Mother and daughter living together should be fine. How do you two feel about that?”

“No problem, no problem.”

Upon hearing that they had agreed to let her stay, Chen Lixue already felt extremely lucky and that everything was going well. She wouldn’t dare to object.

“However, I’ll have to educate you about the status of the family now. Yun Xi is the eldest young madame of the Yun family. We are the masters, and you are the guest. Although you’re Yun Xi’s aunt, you still have to remember your place in the Yun family.”

Yao Ying’s words both emphasized Yun Xi’s prominent status and warned her to know her place.

Chen Lixue suddenly felt as if her face was burning.
