The Old Madam gave Chen Li a good scolding. Seeing Chen Li’s expression getting worse and worse, the Old Madam began to change her words.

“I know. You all just dote on your children. This matter was never wrong in the first place. However, there will be plenty of places to spend money in the future. When this boy grows up and starts a family, which one of them will not need money from the family? So don’t be so extravagant just because you’re living a good life now. You should save some on some stuff.”

The Old Madam continued to educate them. Chen Li listened to her and pretended that the Old Madam was talking to herself.

However, the Old Madam soon voiced out her true thoughts.

“Look at the two of you. You’re both soft-hearted, and you can’t control your money. I think your father will stay here for a while longer due to his illness. Why don’t you two and over all the money you earn to me during this period of time? I will control the financial power of the family. This will definitely save the family a lot of money in a month. It’s also a good opportunity to teach you how to manage your money and how to be a housekeeper.”

The Old Madam’s real goal was to get the financial power of Yun Shan’s family. She still did not forget the task Liu Fang had given her when she came. She had to think of a way to take out more money from Yun Shan’s family to subsidize Yun Gang’s family. After all, Yun Gang’s family was not having an easy time.

“Grandma, then what identity do you use to manage the financial power of our family?”

Yun Xi happened to pass by to go to the toilet. When she came back, she heard the Old Madam shamelessly say these words to Chen Li.

“What identity? Of course, it’s my identity as your grandmother’s identity! Don’t tell me that a person of my age would covet this little bit of money of yours?!”

The old lady’s last sentence was probably exposed herself.

“I didn’t say that, but grandmother, you actually thought that way. Does that mean that you had this thought for a moment?”

Yun Xi really did not leave the slightest bit of face for the Old Madam.

“Look at those families in the countryside. Which family’s daughter-in-law doesn’t hand over the family’s money to her mother-in-law. In the past, when you were in your hometown, each of your families had their own money. It was inconvenient for us, the old couple, to interfere.”

“But now it’s different. We, the old couple, only live with your family. So, of course, we have the power and conditions to help you manage the financial power. This is also to show you, young people, how to manage your money. If you continue to spend like this, no matter how much money you have, it will all be squandered.”

Apart from helping Chen Li save some money, the Old Madam also intended to obtain some private money from this place.

As the Old Madam spoke, she washed the prawns and placed them on the pot, directly steaming them.

“That child can’t be spoiled yet. If he says that he wants it to be stewed in oil, does that mean that you should stew them in oil? I don’t believe that he won’t eat the prawns that were steamed today.”

Yun Xi finally could not suppress her anger. In her previous life, because of her family’s environment, her younger brother had never eaten anything good. In the end, he even died a tragic death.

So this time around, with the family’s conditions, she definitely had to satisfy all of her younger brother’s requirements regarding food.

However, another annoying person had appeared by her side, bringing her younger brother’s standard of living back to its former state.

Now, there were prawns in the house, and they could only be steamed. If the financial authority of the entire family was really handed over to the Old Madam, then in the future, there wouldn’t be any meat on the table at all.

“But didn’t grandfather say that grandma can not interfere in our family’s affairs? If you really want to interfere in the financial authority of our family, why don’t you ask grandfather how to deal with this matter?”

Of course, Yun Xi couldn’t go head-to-head with the Old Madam, so she could only bring up the Old Master’s name to oppress the old lady.

The Old Madam had only brought it up because she felt that Yun Shan’s family was soft-hearted and easy to handle, but she had forgotten about her eldest granddaughter, who was full of thorns.

If the Old Master found out that she wanted to control the money, he would definitely get angry again, and she would really have to return to her hometown.

It seemed that this matter could not be rushed. She still had to take advantage of Yun Xi’s absence to secretly discuss it with Yun Shan. This son of hers was a foolish and filial son. He might be able to agree to her request.
