Capítulo 1208: Chapter 1209: Li Huo Ending Arc (17)

She really was getting absent-minded with age, almost losing such a good granddaughter-in-law.

Looking at her granddaughter-in-law in front of her, the old lady’s eyes filled with guilt as she said, “Alright, from now on, we’ll put aside past grievances and live in harmony as a family. If Yuanyuan ever bullies you, I will undoubtedly be on your side!”

The old lady smiled through her tears, deeply comforted by Huo Yishan’s understanding nature.

Upon hearing her words, Li Xiangyang and Xia Ximeng exchanged smiles, while Li Yuan felt inexplicably that he had made quite a few enemies. Why was he being isolated by his own family?

Huo Yishan also realized this, turned her head, and raised her eyebrows at him, as if saying: With so many people backing me up, dare you bully me in the future?

She hadn’t expected that by coming to this so-called ‘in-laws’ home, she would gain so much.

Perhaps life is just like that, taking a step back broadens the horizons, and by letting go of past grievances, you might discover you’ve gained more.

Soon after, the first and second branches of the Li Family arrived, including Li Wanxing and Fu Ziheng’s family of three.

In an instant, the large dining hall was filled with lively chatter.

Of course, among this crowd, the least happy and unable to smile was the eldest lady Jiang Qin.

Her husband and son had been personally sent to prison by Li Yuan, how could she possibly smile?

But in such a large family, if she wanted to continue staying, she had to behave herself. Moreover, because what her husband and son did was unrelated to her, Li Yuan didn’t take action against her, allowing her to remain in this family.

As for the punishment of Li Xiangyuan and Li Mingsen, it also served as a warning to Li Family’s second branch. If he continued to covet the vast wealth of the Li Family, his fate would be the same as Li Xiangyuan and his son!

Of course, after the incident, although Jiang Qin was allowed to stay in the Li Family, the old lady’s attitude towards her was no longer as it used to be.

“Everyone, please sit.”

The old lady was the first to sit down at the large round table.

As for Huo Yishan, the future mistress of the Li Family, the second branch’s expressions weren’t exactly happy.

After all, the Li Family was incredibly wealthy, and these riches would belong to Huo Yishan. How could they possibly be happy about that?

Of course, even though the second branch of the Li Family felt uncomfortable in their hearts, considering the matter of the first branch, they knew this nephew was no pushover. If they continued to seek personal gain within the conglomerate, they feared they’d end up like the first branch, so they decided to behave themselves.

Even if they couldn’t obtain the entire Li Family’s fortune, they would at least have their share, wouldn’t they?

“Today, we celebrate Shanshan’s return and her becoming a part of our Li Family.” The old lady raised her teacup, using it as a substitute for wine, addressing everyone at the table.

In an instant, everyone stood, raising their glasses to Huo Yishan, making her feel somewhat embarrassed.

Jiang Qin looked up, her face dark as she gazed at the young couple opposite her.

She only had one husband and one son, and although she was still in the Li Family, her position was no longer what it used to be.

Though it’s the 21st century now, the Li Family, due to its immense wealth, is filled with schemes and deceit. Without any backing, there’s no position or stance left.

As a woman, suppressed by Li Yuan, she couldn’t possibly rescue her husband and son, destined to be lonely in this family till the end of her days.

“By the way, brother, when do you plan to hold the wedding?”

During dinner, Li Wanxing suddenly spoke up.

She recalled that her brother had said, when the time was right, he would give Shanshan a grand wedding.
