The Dazzling Princess in Modern Times

Chapter 989: The Princess Builds Strength

In China, since ancient times, the main seat has always been occupied by the head of the family.

Now that Old Madam Wei was standing to the side, Xia Wanyuan sat on the main seat leisurely. No one dared to imagine the meaning behind this.

“Mother, what are you doing?”

“Grandmother?”

The Wei family members in the room had ugly expressions. Even a fool knew that Old Lady Wei was preparing to hand over the Wei family to Xia Wanyuan.

Old Madam Wei held onto a cane and stood beside Xia Wanyuan. He waved at everyone, gesturing for them to calm down. “I said last year that I would retire at the end of the year and hand over the family power to Xia Wanyuan. This is not a temporary idea. I've completed all relevant legal procedures.”

Old Madam Wei's words completely shattered the hope in everyone's hearts.

“The Wei family will be handed over to Xia Wanyuan in the future. From now on, you must help him with all your might.”

As expected, when Matriarch Wei said this, the hall became silent.

After all, who in the hall did not want to sit in the main seat?

“Ha ha.” Wei Zhong suddenly laughed and clapped his hands. “Congratulations, Aunt, for having found a suitable replacement. I believe you still have a lot of things to do, so I won't bother you anymore."

With that, Wei Zhong pulled Wei Jin and was about to leave.

“Wait,” Xia Wanyuan said.

“Why? Even though you control the power of the Wei family, it is only the Wei family in Beijing. You have no right to interfere in our Jiangnan Wei family matters.” Wei Zhong turned his head to look at Xia Wanyuan.

“It's true I can't interfere, but I'm afraid you can't either.”

“What do you mean?” Wei Zhong's eyes were filled with confusion.

At this moment, footsteps came from outside the door.

“I heard that someone wanted to take my daughter-in-law's granddaughter away. Why didn't anyone tell me?” The energetic Old Master Mu entered.

Wei Zhong was stunned. “Your Old Master, what do you mean?”

“Your daughter and granddaughter are married and registered their marriage. They are officially married. Even if you are his father, you do not have the right to take him away casually.” Old Master Mu sat down on the chair beside him.

Wei Zhong turned around to look at Wei Jin. “Is what he said true ?!”

Wei Jin clenched his fists and subconsciously glanced at Xia Wanyuan.

Xia Wanyuan nodded at him. Wei Jin seemed to have gained courage. “It's true. Mu Feng and I have already registered our marriage.”

“!!!” Wei Zhong raised his hand to hit Wei Jin, but Old Master Mu stopped him.

“What are you doing?”

Wei Zhong glanced at Old Master Mu and then at Xia Wanyuan, who was sitting behind him.

The northern part was originally the Wei family's territory in Beijing. Besides, your family is also very important. If he were to fight them head-on, it might be difficult for him to leave Beijing today.

After weighing the two, Wei Zhong's expression quickly changed. He smiled and looked at Wei Jin. “My daughter, your mother misses you. You haven't been back for so long. Don't you miss your mother?”

As expected, when Wei Zhong said this, Wei Jin's face instantly turned pale. He looked at Wei Zhong doubtfully.

“I.”

“In half a month, the Wei family will hold a banquet for the guests.” Xia Wanyuan walked over and interrupted Wei Jin.

“What did you say?!” Wei Zhong looked at Xia Wanyuan in disbelief.

How is that possible? Third Brother and Fourth Brother all knew that Wei Jin's mother was the rope that pulled Wei Jin. How could they let someone else take Wei Jin's mother? 

“Sepupu, really?” Wei Jin's eyes suddenly lit up as he looked at Xia Wanyuan in surprise.

“Mm.” Xia Wanyuan nodded. “She should be in Beijing tonight.”

“Good good good.” Wei Zhong said three ‘goods in a row. “As expected of a good successor chosen by Bibi. You are capable of.”

Wei Zhong understood that the only influence he had to hold Wei Jin back had been lost. He had completely lost his wife and army by coming here today.

No matter what, he could not take Wei Jin away today. Wei Zhong looked at Xia Wanyuan hatefully. “We just see.”

With that, Wei Zhong flicked his sleeve and left without seeing Wei Jin.

Old Master Mu chuckled. “Congratulations, Matriarch Wei.”

Xia Wanyuan smiled. “Old Master, you're too good.”

Old Master Mu stroked his beard. “Thank you for your help today. I'll bring my granddaughter-in-law back first.”

“Oke.”

With that, Xia Wanyuan nodded at Wei Jin comfortably. “Go. Your mother will arrive in Beijing tonight.”

“Thank you cousin.” Wei Jin's eyes were red.

He knew how deep the influence of the Wei family was in Nanjiang City. To be able to take her mother out of the Wei family's old residence, Xia Wanyuan had to pay a heavy price. Furthermore, at this moment, the Wei family in Jiangnan and the Wei family in Beijing had completely fallen. To Xia Wanyuan, it was a big deal.

“Sama-sama.” Xia Wanyuan knew what Wei Jin was thinking.

But for him, though,

It's not a bad thing to break this deadlock.

Only when there is new destruction can there be reform.

Since he had taken over the Wei family, he had to unite the already torn Wei family.

The head of the Wei family should be the head of the entire Wei family.

Old Master Mu left with Wei Jin. Old Madam Wei let go of her burden and returned to the backyard with the help of the butler with a tired expression.

The hall was quiet.

Everyone waited in silence. Xia Wanyuan did not speak and sat quietly in the high chair while drinking tea. The entire hall had a strange atmosphere.

“I'm tired. Let's go.” Wei Yu suddenly yawned and rolled his eyes towards Xia Wanyuan. He stood up and walked out the door.

Tsk, it's only because she has married a good man. If not for the Jun family's support, how could Xia Wanyuan be the head of the Wei family? 

“Huh, I'm a little tired too. Let's go.” With someone taking the lead, the other juniors followed Wei Yu out.

Although the elders did not move, they did not stop these juniors.

“Stop,” Xia Wanyuan said from the main seat.
