Qiqi and Linlin had been participating in an international online game competition recently and had already entered the finals.

It was said that the first place would get one million yuan in cash and a seven-day trip to Europe.

Qiqi and Linlin were not interested in the seven-day trip to Europe. They just wanted to earn money.

Tang Li stood behind them and watched them play.

The scene of this game was very real and exciting.

At that moment, Tang Li’s phone suddenly rang.

She took it out and saw that it was from Tang Zitong.

Tang Zitong said to her on the phone, “Fourth Sister, Secretary Si and I will be there soon.”

Tang Li asked, “Is the music done?”

“Yes, I’m very satisfied with my performance this time. Secretary Si said it’s not bad, hehe.”

Hearing Tang Zitong’s laughter, Tang Li chuckled, “I can already imagine how popular the music you played will become.”

“Really? Fourth Sister, did you read my fortune?”

Tang Li knew that Tang Zitong was still a little unconfident, so she encouraged her. “You have to believe in yourself. Your skills are not bad.”

“Alright, I’m relieved… We’re about to arrive at the shooting site of ‘Divine Phoenix’. Bye.”

“Alright.”

After Tang Zitong hung up, Tang Li put her phone away.

She watched Qiqi and Linlin’s competition for a while more and was about to find something to do when she saw Butler Zhang walking over.

When Butler Zhang saw Tang Li, he quickly came over and said to her, “Madam, First Miss and Miss Tan had an argument just now. First Miss hit Miss Tan.”

“Because of what?” Tang Li’s expression darkened.

Butler Zhang told her, “Miss Tan followed Third Madam to receive the elders in the family. First Miss feels that Miss Tan hasn’t married into the family yet and isn’t qualified to receive those elders.”

Tang Li knew that Qi Bailing was deliberately finding fault with Tan Wenjing, so she asked as she walked out with Butler Zhang, “Where are they now?”

“In the Willow Garden.”

Tang Li and Butler Zhang walked to the Willow Garden. At that moment, there were already many people. Everyone was discussing in low voices about Qi Bailing hitting Tan Wenjing just now.

“Bailing is not wrong either. Tan Wenjing hasn’t officially married Qi Hao. What right does she have to receive the elders?”

“As expected, she’s an ambitious person. She can’t wait to replace First Madam.”

“Doesn’t she know it’s not her place to receive the elders?”

…

Tang Li stood outside the crowd and listened to them discussing. It was obvious that these people all took a side with Qi Bailing.

Tang Li knew that Qi Bailing must have said a lot of bad things about Tan Wenjing in front of these people.

Tang Li nodded at Butler Zhang.

Butler Zhang immediately understood and quickly reminded them loudly, “Everyone, Madam is here.”

Hearing that, everyone quietened down and turned to look at Tang Li, who was standing behind them.

Tang Li stood there with a cold expression and asked, “Where are Bailing and Wenjing?”

Everyone immediately made way and saw Qi Bailing and Tan Wenjing standing in the hall.

In the hall sat a few elders who were of the same generation as Old Master Qi. Third Madam was also standing at the side, looking like she had something to say. However, one of the old ladies with white hair was sternly lecturing Tan Wenjing sternly.

“The Qi family is a prestigious family. We have abided by the family rules for many generations. As Qi Hao’s fiancée, you should be serving your mother-in-law well at this time, not scheming to please people before you even get married. We don’t need you to please us. You just have to be filial to your in-laws and love your family.”

Tan Wenjing kept her head lowered. When the old lady finished speaking, she replied, “Yes.”

Qi Bailing was satisfied and looked smug.

At this moment, another old lady said to Tan Wenjing, “You’re going to marry Hao in a few days. Have you memorized the Qi family’s teachings?”

“Oh? Are we having a hearing right now?” Tang Li said.

The sudden interruption made the group of elders frown and look at the door unhappily.

Tang Li stood there and greeted them, “Aunts, why didn’t you tell me you were coming? If you had, I would have come to receive you personally.”

When the elders saw Tang Li, their expressions tensed.

The person they wanted to punish the most today was Tang Li.

This woman was already going out of hand. Did she really think that she could do whatever she wanted just because she was the head of the Qi family?

“You…”

“Auntie, are you going to lecture me as well?” Tang Li said as she walked in.

She did not give the old ladies a chance to speak and said, “The first rule of the Qi family’s house rule is that the head of the family is in charge of all the internal affairs. If I don’t make a big mistake, no one is qualified to lecture me. The third rule of the Qi family is that family members are not allowed to point fingers at the head of the family.”

“Aunts, I’m very familiar with the Qi family’s teachings. Before you teach me a lesson, think about it first. In a big family like the Qi family, being a senior doesn’t give you a right to discipline juniors at will.”

These words shut the old lady up, making her blush.

Tang Li glanced at the others and said, “Article 587 of the Qi family’s teachings says that if someone in the Qi family makes a mistake, only the head of the family has the right to lecture them. The people in the Qi family can at most give some opinions. Aunties, why didn’t anyone inform me that Wenjing made a mistake? Or did I ask you to lecture her?”

The old ladies turned pale.

At that moment, Tang Li smiled and said, “Aunties, don’t be nervous. Family teachings are old and rigid, but people are not. If Wenjing really made a mistake, it’d only be right for you to lecture her. So, what mistake did Wenjing make?”

With that, she looked at Tan Wenjing.

Before Tan Wenjing could speak, Qi Bailing’s heart skipped a beat. She quickly said loudly, “I asked her to go and take care of my mother, but she won’t go.”

Tan Wenjing lowered her head even more and apologized, “Fourth Madam, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t have rejected First Miss’s request just because I was afraid that First Madam would hit me.”

Tang Li knew very well what Tan Wenjing was trying to say, but she didn’t mind the little trick Tang Wenjing was playing. However, Tang Li couldn’t stand the way Qi Bailing treated people. She was the daughter of a rich family, but all she did day in and day out was waste money and time. This kind of woman needed a lesson more than anyone else.

Tang Li asked, “Bailing, why did you ask Wenjing to take care of your mother?”

Qi Bailing said matter-of-factly, “She’s about to marry Second Brother. Shouldn’t she be taking care of my mother?”
