Return To The Past: I Won’t Choose Humility This Time!

Chapter 315: Hand Over the Money

In the evening, Yun Xi, Chen Li, and the others went to the same shop to eat. Chef Guo even made desserts for the children. It was a little similar to lollipops, but this one was made with malt sugar and some Chinese herbal ingredients.

It was sweet and could freshen their breath at the same time.

“So rich! You go to restaurants to eat delicious food and leave your man and the elders at home. I have never seen a daughter-in-law with such guts!”

Seeing Chen Li enter the door, the Old Madam began to speak in a strange tone.

Yun Shan could only choose to remain silent. He knew what Chen Li was angry about, but he did not want to become the unfilial son that the Old Madam talked about.

“Stop, you’re getting more and more unruly.”

The Old Madam listened to the children’s chatter every day and ate some delicious food. The Old Madam’s heart was really hungry. This was not a solution, so she planned to take advantage of today to educate her daughter-in-law.

“Mom, is there anything else? I’ll go wash the dishes after you finish eating.”

Chen Li looked impatient. If she spoke to the Old Madam more, she would be annoyed.

“I don’t care what kind of job you found outside, or what the boss invited your family to eat. In any case, you’re the daughter-in-law of the Yun family. Once you earn money, it should belong to the Yun family. Just Like Yun Shan, you have to hand over your salary to me and let me handle the expenses of this family. As for you guys going to eat in the restaurant again, I won’t stop you, but you must never spend the family’s money.”

As the Old Madam spoke, she looked at Yun Xi. Seeing that she still had an indifferent expression on her face, the Old Madam gnashed her teeth in anger. Why is this granddaughter getting harder and harder to handle?!

“Mom, I will discuss this matter with her.” Yun Shan finally could not help but speak up for Chen Li.

“Hmph! Discuss?! What’s there to discuss? Bring out your spirit as the head of the family, and you should let this woman hand over the money to me to manage. Could it be that she isn’t my Yun family’s daughter-in-law? Didn’t your father and I use the betrothal gift money for you to marry her?” Old Lady Yun said angrily.

“Mom, don’t be angry.”

Yun Shan had a helpless look on his face. What he was most afraid of right now was the Old Madam getting angry. Once the Old Madam got angry, it would really cause a disturbance in the house. When that time came, there would be endless trouble.

Yun Gang’s side would also use this reason to come over to make trouble here. When that time came, it would really be a pile of trouble.

That Liu Fang was not someone to be trifled with. She was the best at stirring up the emotions of the surrounding neighbors, causing the whole family to fall into a very passive state.

“There’s no need to discuss. There’s nothing to discuss. My mother is only your family’s daughter-in-law, not your family’s slave. The money she earns naturally has its own rights. If she wants to give it to you, that’s a favor. It’s her duty not to give it to you.”

Yun Xi stood out to rebuke the Old Madam.

The Old Madam did not expect that Yun Xi would actually dare to defend Chen Li in front of Yun Shan this time. He did not give her father any face at all. For a moment, she actually did not know how to retort.

“You, you…”

The Old Madam pointed at Yun Xi. She was so angry that her face turned red and she could not say a word.

“You wretched girl, sooner or later, you will marry someone else. Married daughters are like spilled water. What right do you have to meddle in the family affairs of our Yun family here?”

The Old Madam had no other way. She could only use Yun XI’s gender as a starting point and bring out her old-fashioned theory.

Yun Xi laughed coldly, her eyes filled with disdain.

“We’re the same ‘spilled water’, but grandmother has given Yun Lian quite a bit of money. Then what logic is this?”

Yun Xi’s words caused the Old Madam’s face to change from green to white. In the end, Yun Shan could not stand it anymore. He gently patted the Old Madam’s back to appease her anger.

“Yun Xi, don’t be angry with your grandmother.”

Yun Shan tried to persuade her, although he knew that Yun Xi was definitely not feeling well. However, in his heart, the children’s emotions still had to be placed behind the Old Madam’s emotions.
