The Sweetness of the Seventies-Chapter 1248 - 1216: Find the Little Woman!

The elders are in good health, the eldest son is performing well and is polite, and Huo Yingjun and his wife have no worries for the future.

Now is the rising period for Huo Yingjun, and there can be no moment of pause.

The task is heavy, but very important.

He Tiantian participated in another Olympic Games, won a gold medal, and retired as a legend of an era.

When her busy life calmed down, He Tiantian felt somewhat at a loss, but fortunately, the club was already built. Whenever Tiantian wanted to swim, she could invite some sisters to swim together. Moreover, there were retired athletes who hadn’t been assigned good jobs, so Tiantian hired some former colleagues to teach swimming, and the income was good.

Huo Jian indeed had a talent for swimming and was very hardworking, already preparing for the World Youth Championship.

With Aunt Tiantian, Huo Jian thrived in the swimming team.

Tiantian’s cultivation also proceeded slowly and in an orderly manner.

She didn’t deliberately change her appearance; letting nature take its course was also a form of cultivation.

However, just as the Huo Family’s days were prospering, Song Chunli, who had been accompanying her husband on his duties in Nanhu Province, ran home in tears.

Old Madam Huo, who was aged, was almost fainting from shock upon seeing her daughter-in-law in tears and hurriedly asked, "Chunli, what happened? What’s wrong?"

Jiang Lifang, after receiving a call from the nanny, rushed over immediately.

Over the years, the sisters-in-law got along very well, and suddenly hearing that Song Chunli returned crying, she couldn’t just stay at home and hurried over to check.

"Mom, Zheqian is of such an age, yet he’s supporting a mistress outside," choked Song Chunli, her eyes red, some disbelief in her voice although she had seen it with her own eyes.

She wanted to make a scene, but feared tarnishing the Huo Family’s name, as they were no ordinary family now.

If she made a big fuss, it would definitely make others laugh. freewёbnoνel.com

Thus, after repeatedly trying to communicate with her husband and seeing no signs of repentance from him, she stopped arguing and directly returned to Yanjing.

She couldn’t control Huo Zheqian, but there were still in-laws at home!

Hearing Song Chunli’s words, both Old Madam Huo and Jiang Lifang couldn’t believe that the upright Huo Zheqian would have an affair.

Huo Zheqian was already sixty-three this year and was perhaps a few years away from retirement.

"No way, Zheqian, even when he was young he never messed around, and now that his grandson has come of age, to think he would find a woman outside?" Old Madam obviously couldn’t believe her son would do such a disgraceful thing; she believed her son was upright.

Jiang Lifang also couldn’t believe it and asked, "Sister-in-law, did I really see it with my own eyes?"

"Yes," said Song Chunli, "I noticed the smell of a woman on his clothes before, and later I saw him go to a luxury complex. I had Xiao Lin investigate and discovered the woman was someone Huo Zheqian was keeping. I confronted him; initially, he tried to deny it, but I laid out all the details, the places, and even the woman’s name, so he couldn’t deny it like a dead pig not fearing boiling water and admitted it. I asked him to break it off with that woman, considering his age and the energy wasted could reduce his life span. But he wouldn’t listen, and when I said I would tell his parents, he actually wanted to divorce me!"

"Divorce?" Jiang Lifang was shocked, "Divorce? In a family like ours, why mention divorce at all! Especially after being married for decades, with a son and grandchildren so grown. If you divorced, how laughable would that be to others."

Would Huo Zheqian disregard the Huo Family’s face and bring shame to them?

This wasn’t Huo Zheqian’s style!

"Yes, I couldn’t believe it at first, but Zheqian was like someone possessed. Even when we argued before, he never had such a look." Song Chunli sobbed, "Mom, please talk to Dad about Zheqian."

Jiang Lifang comforted Song Chunli, saying, "Sister-in-law, don’t be sad. You’ve been busy all these years in the Huo Family, if not meritorious, then certainly hardworking. The in-laws will surely stand up for you."

Old Master Huo came back from a walk outside and heard his daughter-in-law’s words, cheerfully asking, "Chunli, don’t cry, what happened, tell me."

Song Chunli recounted what happened to Huo Zheqian once again.

Old Master Huo, hearing this, was livid and cursed, "Bastard!"

While this eldest daughter-in-law might have had her deficiencies, compared to other families’ daughters-in-law, she was already quite good. Having supported a husband and taught children all her life, that bastard to talk of divorce over something so trivial, it was simply nonsense.

If Huo Zheqian was in front of him, Old Master Huo would definitely give him a sound beating.

"Chunli, don’t cry," Old Master Huang said, "He doesn’t have the final say in this marriage. Unless, he’s no longer a member of the Huo family."

Hearing her in-laws say this, Song Chunli finally felt somewhat relieved.

"Should we tell Yingjun in Russia?" asked Old Madam Huo, looking towards Song Chunli and Old Master Huo.

Song Chunli hurriedly waved her hands, "Don’t tell Yingjun. We can handle any matter domestically. Yingjun is working abroad, already under great pressure, and his actions need to be very cautious. Even if Huo Zheqian and I divorced, I still have my son, my son and grandson are fine, this I can see clearly."

The son, knowing the news, wouldn’t be able to return for a while and would only be anxious.

That deadbeat didn’t care for his son, but she cared.

Hearing the eldest daughter-in-law’s words, both Old Madam Huo and Old Master Huo were very satisfied.

Able to maintain the big picture, it seems Song Chunli had indeed improved a lot over the years, not like when she was young and would scream and shout over small matters.

"Good, you care for your son and maintain the big picture, that’s good," Old Madam Huo said, "You stay in Yanjing, rest at home. Also, take good care of Ruixiang, don’t be sad. I and your dad will handle this matter and will definitely give you an explanation."

Old Master Huo, angry, the younger generations in the family hadn’t even flirted with anyone yet, and it was his over-sixty eldest son keeping a mistress outside. The good family traditions were thus tarnished, and the Huo Family wasn’t far from ruin.

"Yes, rest well," Old Master Huo said, and after the eldest daughter-in-law went upstairs, he went to the study to call his eldest son.

Old Master Huo was very angry and no one was picking up the phone.

Jiang Lifang went home in the evening and told her husband, son, and daughter-in-law about the situation in the main house.
