Chapter 713: Give Up The Position For Her!
Naturally, Yun Yuanfeng didn’t expect Yun Xi to reveal her ties with the Young Marshal, but if she could make friends with other families, he would certainly like to see that happen as well.
It was a pity that Yun Xi never lived up to her expectations and didn’t manage to establish good relations.h.i.+ps with any other family.
Yun Yuanfeng felt disappointed and helpless, and his face lost a bit of its previous kindness. He lectured Yun Xi sternly, “In the future, you need to know how to befriend those heiresses. And you must also know how to have a good relations.h.i.+p with those wealthy young masters. Only if you expand your network of connections will you be able to fare better in the future!”
Yun Xi nodded. She naturally understood what Yun Yuanfeng meant. On the surface, he wanted her to expand her contacts, but in reality, didn’t he just want her to pave the way for his brighter future?
“I understand. Maybe they all thought that since I just came back from the countryside, that they could look down on me. They didn’t want anything to do with me!”
Although this was just an excuse, Yun Xi knew that it was an excuse that would rile up her dad.
However, before Yun Yuanfeng could be baited, Liang Xiuqin bit the bait first.
As soon as she heard Yun Xi say this, Liang Xiuqin immediately felt superior. After all, Yun Xi wasn’t the only one in the family to attend the Weiya Banquet tonight. Yun Ziling was there as well!
“Everyone there may have been unwilling to make friends with you, but our Ziling is different! Our Ziling undergone debutante training, so she knows dance steps, etiquette, and how to socialize better than you. She represents the Young Madam of the Yun family when she goes out. Naturally, she is more polite and likable than you, who just came from the countryside. What’s more, this time the Second Young Master of the Jiang family came to pick her up in person to go to the banquet. Her status is obvious, so who would dare to not give her face? Maybe the Second Young Master will take her to meet the Elders of the Jiang family. When the time comes, you should hand over the position of fiancee to her!”
Yun Xi simply looked at Liang Xiuqin, then nodded with a chuckle. “Mom told me the same thing. So let’s wait until the right time comes along. If she is able to sit in the position of the Second Madam Master of the Jiang family with her abilities, then I’ll happily give up the position.”
After waiting so long, and after so much effort, she could finally say it out loud. And naturally, Liang Xiuqin was very happy to hear this confession.
“Okay! You said it yourself, so don’t try and deny it when the time comes!”
“I said what I said. And I always stick by my words!”
Yun Yuanfeng wasn’t very particular about which of them married into the Jiang family. As long as the Jiang family became their in-laws, it would be a life changing action for his future prospects.
Of course, the best case scenario would be for Yun Xi to social climb with the Shen family, while Yun Ziling married into the Jiang family. That way, his two daughters would help him establish ties with the two prominent families. That would be a good deal for him too!
“Yun Xi, after you graduate, you should sign up for a debutante training course. After all, you’re also the Yun family’s Young Madam, and you should learn all the etiquette of someone in your position. It will be good for you in the future!”
“Got it, Dad!”
Liang Xiuqin was immediately unhappy when she heard that Yun Xi was going to take a debutante training course!
Yun Xi was the Oldest Young Madam of the Yun family, so she already had the upper hand. If she was allowed to take a debutante training course, she would further steal the spotlight from Yun Ziling. Yun Ziling would stop receiving the Jiang family’s attention!
A scourge like Yun Xi should have the fate of a scourge, so she shouldn’t even think about stealing the wealth and glory from Yun Ziling!
“Yuanfeng, the cost of the debutante training course is expensive. Yun Xi can’t even guarantee her marriage into the Jiang family, and now she’s giving the responsibility to Ziling to deal with. You would be wasting money by paying for her debutante training. It would be better to save the money for next year, when Ziling attends the debutante ball. The ball is held once every three years. As long as she can attend the debutante ball, she will have a place in the upper society’s social circle. Everyone will a higher regard for Ziling and, of course, the Yun family. But for a scourge like Yun Xi who grew up in the countryside… why would socialites and heiresses want to come into contact with a hillbilly?”
