The Marquis’s Young Aunt Is Only Sixteen, and She Puts Everyone in Their Place

Yun Zhixu, the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Dingbei’s household, was lost for fifty years before being found and brought home. She was still a spirited sixteen-year-old, dressed in fine clothes and riding a fine horse. But her own nephew had already inherited the title years ago and become a mighty old marquis. Her return made her seniority terrifyingly high, yet what she inherited was a complete mess. Her eldest grandnephew, the heir, was arrogant and unruly, determined to break off his engagement and stirring up a storm across the whole city. Her second grandnephew was sickly and being thoroughly manipulated by his scheming cousin. Her third grandniece was vain and money-hungry. Fooled by her so-called best friends, she nearly brought disgrace upon the marquis’s household. Before Yun Zhixu could even tell them apart, the heaven-favored young heir blocked her behind a rockery in the garden, sneering with contempt. “Where did this wild girl come from? You think you can become the heir’s wife? Get lost!” Before he could finish, his own father, the old marquis, kicked him to the ground. The old marquis trembled with rage. “You wretch! Get on your knees before your grandaunt at once!” “Even your grandfather has to treat her with the utmost respect. Who do you think you are?”
