Return To The Past: I Won't Choose Humility This Time! - Chapter 147

Chapter 147: Yuan Peng was appointed

“Isn’t it just a drumstick? I’m giving this to my granddaughter. Which one of you dares to stop me?”

The Old Lady was aggressive. Yun Lian lowered her head and continued eating. The corners of her mouth revealed an imperceptible smile.

“Alright, Yun Xi, you should stop talking too. Everyone, let’s eat.” Yun Shan said to Yun XI.

When Yun Xi heard this, she did not say anything else.

Ye Yao looked at Yun Xi and said nothing more. She lowered her head and began to eat her ribs. Due to the two uninvited guests, this meal was not very enjoyable. The Ye siblings were also not very comfortable due to the presence of the Old Lady and Yun Lian. After quickly finishing the food in their bowls, they bade farewell.

However, Yun Yang and Ye Yao looked like they were unwilling to part with each other. The two children agreed to come out and play together in the future.

Yun Xi looked at this pair of childhood sweethearts. They were really indescribably beautiful. Perhaps in this life, Yun Yang would not repeat the same mistake. Perhaps he would also be able to marry a gentle and beautiful wife, and he could live a different life.

The day after Yun Shan was dismissed, Yuan Peng took up the position. He came to this small, remote place and became an accountant.

Actually, Yuan Peng taking up the position was not a big deal. The most important thing was that he came so quickly. This was like a slap in the face to Yun Gang, who used the excuse that he had to lay off workers due to financial difficulties.

However, there were very few people in this village. Moreover, many people were not able to get a desk job like that. Thus, they did not understand the story behind it. Even if they did, they dare not offend Yun Gang and speak up for Yun Shan.

After all, in this small village, everyone knew who was the official. They were all rushing to curry favor with Yun Gang, so who will be willing to offend him?

However, Yun Xi knew in her heart that there was definitely a reason for Yun Gang to be reinstated. Others might not know, but Yun Xi and her family understood everything.

Yun Gang’s direct superior was an honest and fair man. He was investigating everyone in the office for corruption and fired a few of them due to this. Since Yun Gang did not commit any major mistakes, he was asked to return to his original post.

Yun Gang’s superior hated bribery the most. Now that everything was already in place, Yun Xi was just waiting for Yuan Peng to send the last few gifts to the Yun Gang’s family. Yun Xi could then anonymously report it to Yun Gang’s superiors and threaten Yun Gang’s position.

However,Yun Xi decided to let them be happy for a few days. There was no hurry to report it to Yun Gang’s superior anonymously. The most important thing now was to help Chen Li cut ties with Chen Sheng.

“Mom, we’ll go to Chen Xin’s house in a few days and settle the issue of the land division with them.”

Just as they had finished entertaining Ye Jun, Yun Xi requested for them to return to that place once again.

“I want to go too!” When Yun Yang heard that they were going there again, he was so happy that he was dancing with joy. This meant that he would be able to see his beloved Yao Yao.

“You little brat, I know exactly what you’re thinking. However, you’ll have another mission this time so you won’t be able to go with us for the time being.”

Yun Xi knew that Yun Yang wanted to go and see Ye Yao. However, compared to Yun Shan, the person she trusted more was still Yun Yang. Therefore, Yun Xi decided to hand over the task to Yun Yang.

Yun Xi whispered to Yun Yang that Yuan Peng might come over in the near future. Yun Xi was afraid that Yuan Peng would arrive when all of them were out of the house. If that happened, they would not even have a witness. How could she point out that Yun Gang had accepted a bribe from Yun Peng?

Moreover, Yun Yang had an important task. After Yuan Peng left, he had to find out where Liu Fang placed the gifts sent by her friends. This way, after she reported them, she would be able to catch them and they would not even have the chance to deny it.
