Chapter 300: Chapter 300 - First Madam Is So Afraid Of Fourth Madam!

Tang Li sized up Tan Wenjing, who was wearing a white chiffon dress, and then glanced at First Madam. She instantly understood why Tan Wenjing was here and why First Madam wanted her to stay here.

She suddenly felt like moving back to watch a good show.

It seemed like what was going to happen at the Qi Mansion would be very interesting.

As the saying goes, enemies can be used as a shield. Tang Li returned Tan Wenjing’s friendly smile. “I know S Province’s tea plantation. The butler told me before that the tea we drink is mostly from S Province’s tea plantation. It does taste good.”

Since Tang Li was the one who started the conversation, Tan Wenjing immediately followed up.

While speaking to Tang Li about tea, Tang Wenjing observed Tang Li’s expression. Seeing that Tang Li was listening attentively, she was extremely excited.

It turns out that Fourth Madam is so easy to talk to. I must suck up to her, Tang Wenjing thought to herself.

When Tan Wenjing spoke about tea culture, the others couldn’t interrupt at all.

Tan Wenjing spoke for a long while before stopping and waited for Tang Li to ask questions.

At that moment, First Madam suddenly asked, “When did Fourth Sister and Fourth Brother come back? Why don’t you stay for dinner tonight? I’ll inform the kitchen to prepare a few more dishes. Also, will Fourth Brother be coming over for dinner tonight?”

Tan Wenjing glanced at First Madam and shut up.

Tang Li glanced at her and said, “I’ll stay for dinner. Whether Yihan will come over for dinner or not will depend on whether the people in the company behaved well this month.”

These words made the three madams freeze. They suddenly had a bad feeling.

Tang Li smiled again and said to the three of them, “Before we came here, Yihan and I went to Father’s place. Do you know what Father asked me to do?”

The three of them froze again, and the bad feeling grew stronger.

For some reason, Tang Li was in a good mood. “Father said that some people in the Qi Mansion have been acting up again recently, so he asked me, as the Madam of the Qi Mansion, to discipline them.”

“Why am I not aware of anyone acting up in the Qi Mansion?” First Madam said in a sarcastic tone, “Father has never cared about anything that happened in the mansion. Someone must have made this up.”

Tang Li looked at her sister-in-law, who was so angry that her face had turned red. She snorted and said calmly, “Sister-in-law, what’s the hurry? I didn’t name anyone. Why are you getting so worked up?”

“I’m not!” First Madam raised her voice and said shrilly, “I didn’t do anything wrong. Why should I get worked up?”

Tang Li’s expression darkened. “Then shut your mouth. If you say another word, you won’t be able to speak for the next few days.”

First Madam shuddered and blushed, swallowing down what she was about to say.

Tan Wenjing widened her eyes in shock, unable to believe just yet how powerful Tang Li was in this house.

At that moment, Tang Li added, “Don’t go and bother Father in the future. How many times have I told you that Father needs to recuperate? If you keep saying things to him that make him angry, I will be merciless.”

Hearing that, First Madam’s face turned livid.

Tang Li was obviously aiming that at her.

She wanted to pounce on Tang Li and bite her to death.

At that moment, Tang Li picked up the teacup beside her and took a sip of tea. Then, she looked at the few of them and said, “Father asked me to come back and manage the house. If you have any objections, you can raise them now.”

First Madam, Second Madam, and Third Madam were speechless.

What was the point of their objections?!

“If you guys don’t have any objections, I’ll be managing all the expenses in the house in the future.”

“It has always been the three of us who manage the expenses. Why do you want to take over as soon as you come back?” Second Madam asked calmly.

If Tang Li really took over the expenses of the house, it would be difficult for them to get anything good for their own family.

Tang Li glanced at Second Madam and said, “If you are not happy with that, talk to Father. He’s the one who asked me to do so. You don’t think I want to manage the mess, do you?”

Tang Li took another sip of tea and continued, “In the future, you’ll have to get permission from me before using the money. If I find out that someone steals the money, I’ll use your own money to make up for it.”

Though the three madams were indignant, they had to agree unwillingly.

At this moment, First Madam began to work on her plan. “Fourth Sister-in-law probably doesn’t know about Lingxuan and Wenjing yet, right?”

Tang Li pretended to not know. “What about them?”

Fourth Madam said, “Some time ago, Lingxuan went on a business trip with his father to S Province. I don’t know who he offended, but he was drugged there. Wenjing was with him at that time and was implicated.”

“Wenjing’s father is one of the founding members of the Qi Corp. He has been managing the tea plantation in Province S very well. We can’t afford to disappoint him, so I discussed it with First Master and decided to let Lingxuan marry Wenjing.”

Tang Li did not say anything when she heard that. Instead, she looked at Tan Wenjing.

Tan Wenjing lowered her eyes shyly and remained silent.

First Madam added, “Actually, I don’t have to bother you with this kind of trivial thing. But since Fourth Sister-in-law is managing the house now, I have to tell you in advance. When we decide on the date, don’t forget to give me money for the wedding.”

Tang Li was silent for a few seconds before asking calmly, “Did Lingxuan agree to marrying Wenjing?”

“What right does he have to disagree?!” First Madam’s voice turned sharp. “Since he’s back in the Qi family, his marriage will be decided by his parents. We’re a prestigious family.”

Tang Li frowned. This sister-in-law of hers was always on the verge of courting death. Could it be that she had not learned her lesson from the tragedy that happened to her family last time?
