Before this, although Huangfu Ruiling held great power, he had not considered taking the position of the family head. He didn’t know why, but recently, he had suddenly changed his mind and removed Huangfu Jingzhang from the family heads position.
Hearing Nangong Xiyu’s words, Zhongyu Liuyings expression stiffened. After she reached out to adjust her hair, she smiled and responded, “Sister-in-law, you’ve got it wrong. We are talking to Ruiling to discuss the family head transition. Besides, we are his parents. It’s perfectly normal for us to seek him out. I’m not sure who’s been gossiping without understanding the situation, causing you to misinterpret.”
Nangong Xiyu’s face then displayed a hint of mockery. “So, that’s how it is. Seems like I made a mistake. But, sister-in-law, now that the big brother has stepped down as the family head, you’ve also given up your role as the family matriarch. In the future, you can relax and enjoy life. You won’t have to worry about family matters anymore.”
She couldn’t believe that Zhongyu Liuying didn’t value the power she held. All along, Zhongyu Liuying had taken pride in her status as the matriarch. Despite Huangfu Ruiling having taken away most of the family’s authority, he hadn’t shown any interest in the internal responsibilities. As a result, Zhongyu Liuying had complete control over these domestic affairs. However, she was now required to relinquish all her power.
In contrast to Huangfu Jingzhang, who had merely lost a title, Zhongyu Liuying had lost not just a title but also real influence. Nangong Xiyu couldn’t believe that Zhongyu Liuying was as calm as she appeared.
As expected, after hearing Nangong Xiyu’s words, Zhongyu Liuyings face immediately revealed a trace of displeasure. But she managed to force a smile, saying, “Sister-in-law, you’re overthinking it. Although Ruiling has taken over as the family head, he hasn’t married yet. I’ll continue to manage the domestic affairs of the family for his sake.”
In any case, she was unwilling to let go of her authority. Moreover, although Huangfu Ruiling was poised to become the family head, he hadn’t specified how to handle the internal matters. As the family heads mother, she was obligated to help him with his worries, right?
Thinking about this, Zhongyu Liuying appeared more self-assured.
Hearing Zhongyu Liuyings response, Nangong Xiyu couldn’t help but curse in her heart, but she concealed it on her face. “However, I’ll still need to check with Ruiling later. After all, such matters should not be taken lightly!”
She didn’t believe that Huangfu Ruiling would simply allow Zhongyu Liuying to manage domestic affairs indefinitely.
“No need.” Zhongyu Liuying couldn’t help but raise her voice, but she quickly realized that she had overreacted. She hastily composed herself before continuing, “Sister-in-law, are you doubting my words? I am Ruilings mother, and that’s a fact. Can’t a mother manage the family’s internal affairs for her own son?”
Originally, Huangfu Ruiling probably didn’t care much about these issues, which was why he hadn’t brought them up. If Nangong Xiyu raised the topic, Zhongyu Liuying might truly lose her authority within the family.
A hint of disdain crossed Nangong Xiyu’s face, but she still wore a smile.
“Sister-in-law, I’m not doubting you. However, we must still follow the Huangfu family’s traditions. The family internal matters have traditionally been managed by the family matriarch. However, if the family head is unmarried, the family head will make the choice. Although you are the family head’s mother, you must adhere to the Huangfu family’s rules.”
Zhongyu Liuyings expression immediately darkened. When she looked at Nangong Xiyu, there was even a hint of threat and warning. “But don’t forget, no matter what, Ruiling is my son. There are no grudges between mother and son overnight.”
Upon hearing such a threatening remark, Nangong Xiyu smirked disdainfully.
“You’ve misunderstood me. I didn’t say anything. I just plan to adhere to the
Huangfu family’s rules. Of course, if you think I’m mistaken, I won’t say more. But some things are better expressed openly. Without the orders of the new family head, I don’t know whether to listen to you or not..”
