Chapter 226 Tang Li Shows Power

Soon, what Tang Li said reached the ears of everyone in the Qi Mansion. Many people were showing support for those women.

“She really thinks she can do whatever she wants. If she doesn’t have the ability to lay eggs, she has no right to talk to them like that. Also, she even claimed she could read fortunes at the banquet. What a disgrace to the Qi family.”

“She’s the youngest in the Qi family. What right does she have to let the older sisters-in-law copy the family teachings?”

“That’s right. This is horrendous.”

The group of people were furious, but when they reached the entrance of the dining room, they immediately shut their mouths as if they had agreed on doing so beforehand. When the people from the three families heard this, they actually showed support for Tang Li.

“These people have been talking all kinds of shit about my dad. If they weren’t elders, I would have torn their mouths apart.” Qi Bailing sneered.

First Madam, who had been frightened last night and looked a little pale today, added, “Although Tang Li is not a good person, these women aren’t good either. I have to thank Tang Li today for lecturing these loud women and making them shut up.”

Although Second Madam and Third Madam didn’t say anything, they were also gloating.

Other than the old man, who would not come over for dinner, when everyone in the Qi Mansion arrived at the dining hall, they saw Tang Li sitting alone at the main table, drinking tea leisurely.

Behind her stood Butler Yang and Butler Wang, the head butler of the house.

When everyone saw Butler Wang standing there, they had a bad feeling and did not dare to breathe loudly.

Seeing that most of the people had arrived, Tang Li raised her eyes to look at everyone and said, “In the past few days, the Qi Mansion has been rather crowded. I think some people have nothing to do, so they spend all their time gossiping. In order to make everyone aware of the fact that we’re a hundred-year-old family, I’ve decided to make everyone copy the Qi family’s teachings and memorize them.

With that, she pointed at the three family books on the main table and continued, “As long as you stay in the Qi Mansion, from this afternoon onwards, all of you have to copy the family rules. From time to time, I’ll spot check you. If you can’t remember what you copied, then continue copying until you remember it.”

These words made the middle-aged women who were bickering with Tang Li look twisted.

But Butler Wang was here, so they did not dare to talk back.

The others thought that Tang Li was only talking about the women who badmouthed her behind her back. Some of them started discussing quietly.

“Isn’t that too much? She actually made the aunts copy the family teachings and even made them memorize it. Isn’t this rude?”

“I think she’s just being arrogant because she has Old Master’s support.”

“She’s so unreasonable. I don’t believe she can get Old Master to support her forever. When the time comes… I’ll see what she can

do.”

Tang Li looked at everyone and the corners of her lips suddenly curled up into a faint smile as she added, “Do you think they are the only ones whom I will punish? I’m talking about everyone. Listen up, everyone!”

These words made everyone explode.

“Tang Li, why should we copy too?”

“We didn’t say anything about you.”

“That’s right. On what ground are you making us copy the teachings? We didn’t do anything.”

Everyone was talking at once, wanting to pounce on Tang Li and bite her.

Tang Li picked up the tea on the table and took a sip. Her calm expression was a stark contrast to them.

She replied casually, “Because I’m the Madam of the Qi family. Isn’t that enough?”

“If you don’t think I’m qualified, you can ask Butler Wang if I am qualified.”

Butler Wang stood up and continued, “In the Main Branch Section of the family teaching, it is said that the madam of the main branch has the right to discipline all the women in the branch family. In the past, the madams would make the women in the branch family copy the family’s teachings once a year. When Fourth Madam asks you to copy, you copy!”

What he meant was, “You guys should be happy that she didn’t make you copy last

year.”

After Butler Wang said that, everyone recalled this, which made them look twisted.

Looking at their reaction, Tang Li chuckled and said sincerely, “I’m doing this for your own good. The Qi family is such a big family, but now, people don’t have any manners at all. They’re always gossiping about the masters behind their backs. This is intolerable! If you think the family teachings are not enough, then copy a few more scriptures. By copying scriptures, you can calm down and feel peaceful.”

The group of women was speechless.

F*ck!

If looks could kill, Tang Li would have been cut into pieces.

However, looks could not kill, and Tang Li looked away, pretending they didn’t exist.

She took another sip of tea and said to Butler Wang, “I think the servants in the Qi Mansion should be reselected. Who gave them the courage to gossip about their masters?”

Butler Wang immediately agreed. “Fourth Madam is right. How about…”

At this point, he thought for a moment before saying, “We also have an employee handbook for the Qi family’s servants. If you want, I’ll make them copy and memorize it too.”

“Alright, let’s do that.”

Tang Li made the final decision to make all the women copy the Qi family’s teachings and the servants copy the employee’s handbook.

No matter how unhappy they were, they did not dare to talk back.

Tang Li’s unexpected move stunned everyone in the Qi Mansion.

Immediately, the old man was informed of this episode.

When Tang Li went to the old man’s villa, he said in approval, “You did the right thing.”

The old man was pleased that Tang Li was willing to discipline the female members, because the three madams never had the guts to do so.

He would definitely support Tang Li.

Tang Li smiled and said, “It’s all because of Father. If you didn’t back me up, those people wouldn’t listen to me.”

If the old man didn’t back her up, she wouldn’t even bother to manage the house for him.

The two of them chatted for a while before Tang Li, Doctor Xiang, and Mr. Yun went to discuss how the old man should be treated during the next month when he was not at home.
