The pampered heiress holds the script and leads her cannon fodder family to a counterattack.

Chapter 210 Tong Cuihuan Loses Housekeeping Power

Tong Cuihuan then realized that her sister must be refusing to see her.

But how could this be! Wasn't her sister always so good to her? Why does she suddenly not want to see her anymore?

If they refuse to see her, what will happen to Qin'er's marriage? What about the money the household needs?

Tong Cuihuan talked for a long time, saying that she had come today on urgent business, but the servants just wouldn't let her go.

Anxious, she took her daughter and hid nearby.

Qin'er was extremely anxious and asked Tong Cuihuan, "Why won't Auntie see us? Is it because she doesn't want to help me find a husband?"

Tong Cuihuan was also anxious and told Qin'er to shut up in a bad mood. Qin'er had no choice but to shut up with tears in her eyes.

Tong Cuihuan's husband disliked her and took many concubines.

Over the years, if it weren't for the title of Duchess's sister, her husband and the people in the household would not have shown her any respect.

What will she do if she falls out with her sister?

The connection with the Yan family has only just been established; whether they can help her depends on how well she handles the matter.

If her sister refuses to talk to her anymore, she won't be able to complete the task at the Yan family's residence.

As I was pondering in the corner, suddenly, someone came into view.

She recognized the person; it was Mrs. Li, who was on good terms with her sister.

As soon as Madam Li arrived at the door, the guards at the door gave her a respectful smile and said, "Madam Li, please come in. My lady has been waiting for you for a long time."

Tong Cuihuan stood frozen in place as if she had been electrocuted.

It turns out that her sister really just didn't want to see her.

Could it be that her sister discovered her feelings?

Madam Wu guessed that Madam Li would be arriving soon, so she went directly to the gate to greet her. Before Madam Li even came in, Madam Wu greeted her with a smile.

Tong Cuihuan felt as if her heart had been gripped by a giant hand, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.

If her older sister ignores her from now on, she's really doomed.

So she ran over with her daughter, shouting, "Sister, why can't you see me!"

Madam Wu frowned and glanced at Tong Cuihuan.

This younger sister chilled her heart.

She didn't want to answer Tong Cuihuan, but only told the servants, "If anyone is lingering and refusing to leave, just kick them out. Don't let them block the doorway and get in the way."

Then, arm in arm with Madam Li, they left without looking back.

Tong Cuihuan couldn't believe her ears.

Is this still her sister?

The moment her sister turned around, she had already prepared a thousand words in her heart; she wanted to clear up the "misunderstanding" between her and her sister.

Unexpectedly, her sister didn't say a word to her and even had the servants kick her out!

Upon hearing this, the guard's expression turned colder: "Madam, you heard that too, please."

"We cannot disobey the Madam's orders. You are a person of status, and it would be a loss of face for you to be driven away by us like this."

Tong Cuihuan's expression changed.

Over the years, wherever she went, the wives of officials from all walks of life treated her with great courtesy, all because they knew she was the sister of the Duchess of the State.

If people find out that she was kicked out by her sister, who will respect her in the future?

No, we can't let anyone know!

So he took his daughter and sheepishly went home.

When she returned to the mansion, her husband, Kong Xiu, was in the courtyard, where he greeted her.

"Have you received the money yet?" Kong Xiu asked, looking at her.

Tong Cuihuan's expression was not good: "Wait for me a few more days."

Kong Xiu's expression was clearly displeased.

"Didn't you say you were sure you'd get the money today? You've squandered all the money in the house!"

"Is this mansion really so desperate for renovations? We're barely able to afford food! And you still want to spend money on renovations!"

Tong Cuihuan was already furious after being turned away by her sister, and when she heard her husband say these things, she became even angrier and retorted directly, "Do I spend all this money by myself? If you hadn't taken so many concubines, would our family be in such dire straits?"

"If it weren't for me using my sister's money to supplement the family income all these years, you and your concubines would be starving!"

Kong Xiu was furious upon hearing this.

"You still have the nerve to justify spending so much money! From today onwards, you will no longer be in charge of the household finances! Let Madam Ke manage the accounts!"

Upon hearing this, Tong Cuihuan looked at Kong Xiu in disbelief.

For the mistress of the house, having a concubine manage the household was an utter disgrace.

But before she could answer, Kong Xiu stormed off in a huff.

The other concubines in the household secretly sighed when they saw that the mistress's power to manage the household had been taken away.

However, no one dared to openly make sarcastic remarks.

After all, she is the mistress of the house and the younger sister of the Duchess of the State.

Tong Cuihuan went to the Duke of Wei's mansion several more times, but without exception, she was kicked out each time.

Madam Ke somehow learned that Tong Cuihuan had been kicked out by her sister, and she spread the news far and wide, making it known to the whole family.

Even the wives who were on good terms with Tong Cuihuan knew about this.

Everyone knew that Madam Wu had stopped seeing her sister.

Some people even went to the Duke's mansion to sound out what was going on, but Madam Wu only said that it was better not to mention this younger sister.

That's when everyone confirmed the matter.

Kong Xiu took away Tong Cuihuan's management power, originally intending to give her a warning, but seeing that Tong Cuihuan seemed to have really fallen out with her sister and couldn't get the money back, she continued to let Madam Ke manage the household.

Previously, only Madam Ke dared to talk back to Tong Cuihuan, but now, the ordinary concubines don't really respect her as the mistress.

Lan Jiao, along with several of her half-sisters, surrounded Qin'er: "Didn't you say your aunt could arrange a marriage for you and help you marry into a good family? Now you can't even see your aunt!"

Several half-sisters chuckled softly to each other.

Qin'er was so angry that she cried.

Seeing this, Tong Cuihuan was heartbroken and rushed over to curse, "You lowly wretch, you can't expect anything good to come out of your dog's mouth! How dare you treat my daughter like this!"

The girls scattered in a panic.

She dared not punish Lan Jiao; if she did, her husband would fight her to the death.

Tong Cuihuan went to see Yan Yuelan again. After learning the whole story, Yan Yuelan felt that she was useless.

She was secretly angry. She had thought that the Duchess was easily swayed, so why was she suddenly so opinionated?

Could it be that Qin Wanying made a move again?

The more Yan Yuelan thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

Qin Wanying is now related to the Duke's family, and it is very likely that she will help the Duke's family.

Yan Yuelan felt a burning hatred for Qin Wanying.

She was clearly the chosen one, so how come she was always at a disadvantage when facing Qin Wanying!

She gave Tong Cuihuan a few perfunctory words, and then subtly warned her not to reveal their secret plot before sending her away.

Tong Cuihuan regretted it.

If she had been of one mind with her sister back then, she wouldn't have ended up like this today.

Why have to harbor thoughts you shouldn't have!

Lady Wu went directly to the Marquis of Dingbei's residence to express her gratitude.

Her main purpose was to meet Qin Wanying, the extraordinary woman who had saved her life.

Ever since her daughter said those words to her, she has started to reminisce about the little things she had spent with her sister.

From things that happened when I was a child until recently, I've discovered that my younger sister is indeed as my daughter said: on the surface, she seems to be doing everything for my own good, but in reality, she can't stand to see me doing well.

If it weren't for Qin Wanying, she might have really been killed by her sister.
