Imperial Commander: His Pretty Wife Is Spoiled Rotten Chapter 569 - Ungrateful

Chapter 569: Ungrateful

The fact that Yun Yuanfeng had given Liang Xinyi 1,000 yuan to repay the housekeeper for the designer clothes that her son had bought reached Liang Xiuqin’s ears early in the morning.
Liang Xiuqin, who was in dire need of money, quarreled with Chen Lixue.
Yun Yuanfeng became so angry that he went to work without eating breakfast.
Yun Xi also took the opportunity to bring up the issue and raised the matter of having Chen Lixue leave the villa complex again. Liang Xiuqin was looking for reasons to vent her anger, so she cursed at Chen Lixue again.
“Auntie, I said that if you can’t get along with my mother harmoniously, then you should move out with Liang Xinyi.”
“Wretched girl, what do you mean by that? I raised you for so many years, so why are you acting so ungrateful? You want to chase us away?”
Yun Xi’s sharp eyes looked as if they had been filled with ice suddenly.
Chen Lixue realized too late that she had been speaking out of line, and she shuddered.
“Auntie, if you don’t know how to talk to me reasonably and politely, just shut up. I’m afraid you don’t remember what second aunt said on the day you came to the Yun family. Okay, then I’ll remind you of who has the final say in this family.”
Chen Lixue was feeling very anxious, but, before she could speak, Liang Xinyi had walked over.
Her hands under her thick down jacket were tightly clenched. Her fingernails were digging into her flesh to restrain her anger and hatred.
Liang Xinyi mustered a forced smile. “Yun Xi, my mother just doesn’t know how to speak in polite society, so please don’t take it to heart. She didn’t mean to be rude to you. She’s just anxious. After all, we’re in Jingdu, and there’s really nowhere else for us to go.”
Yun Xi watched her putting on this act and turned to look at her second aunt. “Second aunt, this month will be New Year’s, so everyone will go vegetarian. I will have a test and a holiday break soon, so I will help you plan the New Year’s holiday.”
“Okay! Your second uncle’s blood sugar is high anyway, so it’s a good idea to go vegetarian.”
Yao Ying glanced at Chen Lixue, then went into the kitchen and informed the housekeeper.
Chen Lixue’s face got very dark, and she glared at Yun Xi in annoyance. “How can every meal be vegetarian? Xinyi is growing now during puberty, so will she be able to stand it?”
It wasn’t Liang Xiuqin who answered, but Yun Ziling, who had become very obedient recently. “I can bear it, so why can’t Liang Xinyi take it? Auntie, I’m afraid you haven’t figured it out, but this is the Yun family, not your family.”
Although Yun Ziling hadn’t been convinced by Yun Xi, there was no other way, since second aunt listened to her.
It was good to go vegetarian, lest Chen Lixue, that country bumpkin, get too big for her britches.
“Ziling is right. This is the Yun family. You can’t do whatever you want. You’d better figure out what your place is here.”
“You! You’re way too overbearing.” Chen Lixue’s face paled with anger.
In this era, eating meat at every meal was considered necessary for a good diet.
Although Chen Lixue was stingy in the countryside, her family could afford to eat meat twice a week.
However, the meat only entered the mouths of her children. Chen Lixue herself wasn’t willing to eat something so precious herself. Yun Xi hadn’t even dared to think about eating meat when she’d lived with them. Except for what her uncle put in her bowl, she didn’t dare to move her chopsticks toward the food ever.
But the Yun family was different. Her third uncle’s living expenses for her grandfather and this family weren’t low, and their gourmet food was even more sumptuous than that of other families. Chen Lixue was over the moon to be able to eat meat at every meal.
As soon as Yun X had arrived back home, she’d given her aunt a slap in the face, and Chen Lixue couldn’t do anything about it since the second aunt listened to everything Yun Xi said.
If they couldn’t eat meat for a month, whether she could stand it or not, would the old man be able to stand it?
Still thinking about trying to make her change her mind, Chen Lixue turned to look at Yun Xi. Yun Xi didn’t even look back at her. She turned around and went to school directly.
Before leaving, Yun Xi glanced at her second aunt, and her second aunt immediately understood what she was implying.
The stage was set, and the tension had been brought up to the extreme, and all that was left was for Liang Xinyi to come and play in the show.
