My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 1800: An Important Honored Guest

"Hurry up, dinner is about to start. Do you want to keep Madam and Miss waiting?" Seeing her walking slowly, Xiao Xi spun around and mocked, "From the countryside is just from the countryside, no manners at all. Don’t think you’ve actually hit a stroke of luck by becoming the Governor’s daughter. The real Governor’s daughter is right inside!"

Yiyi frowned secretly. So Mrs. Yun also had children, and it all made sense now.

Madam Aisha had never been able to bear children, so she lost favor, while Mrs. Yun rose to a higher status because of having a child.

Lately, she came to understand some things about this world. It was indeed heard that among the wealthy, if the first wife couldn’t bear children, the husband could marry another to have heirs, and the status of both wives was supposed to be equal.

But it seemed that Madam Aisha and Mrs. Yun’s statuses were far from equal. After all, a woman’s status within the family depended on a man’s favor.

"What are you daydreaming about, really? How could the Governor agree to adopt a dumb girl like you? Even walking is slow, dull-witted, hurry up and get inside." Maid Xiao Xi crossed her arms impatiently, pointing at a room.

Yiyi’s eyes flickered, and she entered the bathroom.

She purposely lingered there for a long time. Anyway, in these people’s eyes, she was just a slow and dim-witted girl, so of course she did things sluggishly.

...

Over there, Mrs. Yun and Madam Aisha were chatting idly when suddenly they received a call from Governor Yun Xingbo. He said his plane would arrive soon and, with excitement in his voice, mentioned he was bringing back an important guest, advising her to prepare well to welcome them.

Hearing her husband’s tone of emphasis, Mrs. Yun quickly realized it was a guest of great significance. She promptly laughed and assured him there would be no problem.

Then she turned to Madam Aisha with a smile and said, "Xingbo is rushing back tonight and even bringing a distinguished guest. It seems I’ll be busy welcoming them and won’t be able to entertain you."

Madam Aisha’s eyes sparkled, eager to see her husband, but dimmed upon noticing Mrs. Yun’s joyful smile.

"Then I’ll take Yiyi and head back; I can visit another day."

Mrs. Yun scolded playfully, "Sister, why speak like this among family? Xingbo is definitely eager to see you as well. Stay for dinner with us, though I must get busy. You can sit in the living room first."

Madam Aisha wished to see Governor Yun, so she finally nodded and went into the living room.

As Mrs. Yun watched her enter, the warmth on her face vanished completely, replaced by a cold sneer from her nose.

"This is truly heaven-sent. Xingbo happens to return so timely, bringing an important guest. If this mother and daughter disgrace themselves before someone he values, making him lose face, he will certainly be furious and grow even more disgusted with them."

She smiled insidiously, her face elegant and noble, yet filled with calculation and arrogance, curling her lips.

Then she instructed the servant to summon her daughter Yun Qingqing out, smiling as she said, "Qingqing, go and dress up nicely."

Yun Qingqing’s pretty face was full of disdain: "They’re just eating with that lowly mother and daughter. Why should I dress up solemnly for them? I don’t even want to see them. Do they deserve it?"

"Silly girl, your father will soon arrive with a distinguished guest. You can’t be impolite. Also, you are the legitimate Governor’s daughter. Dressing beautifully and elegantly is a perfect contrast to those unsophisticated countryside girls, making it clear to everyone what a real noble daughter is like, isn’t it?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Qingqing immediately lifted her head, revealing a radiant smile.
