After all, the elevator area is a public place, not the Huo family's territory.

But Huo Chenyu blocked the elevator door and pulled her out.

Separated by an open elevator door, Huo Chenyi used this as a boundary and said:

“Dad, Lili is not an outsider, she is my wife.”

Seeing that the father and son were about to confront each other, Wei Chaoyu hurriedly tried to mediate:

"We can talk about it back home. This isn't the place to do that."

The old man was stubborn. Ignoring his wife's attempts to calm him down, he revealed his trump card right in front of Tang Li:

“I told you, a man from the Huo family will not marry a woman from the Tang family. This woman can forget about entering the Huo family.”

Wei Chaoyu's eyes widened.

She seemed surprised that her husband would say such a thing in front of another woman's wife.

The Huo family is one of the most prestigious and influential families in Tanzhou. They are usually very concerned about their reputation and manners. Huo Yishen's words were really unbecoming of an elder.

"Then let's not go through the Huo family's gate."

Before Huo Chenyu could retort, Wei Chaoyu had already taken a quick step out of the elevator and waved to Huo Yishen.

Huo Yishen was quite surprised to stop the elevator from closing. He hadn't expected his wife, who always protected his pride, to embarrass him in front of the younger generation.

It looked like the conflict between father and son was about to escalate into a conflict between husband and wife.

Tang Li was about to speak.

But then Huo Yishen reached out and grabbed Wei Chaoyu's arm:

"Your surname isn't Tang."

"I'll go change my surname right now."

Wei Chaoyu took a small step back, avoiding Huo Yishen's hand.

Huo Yishen frowned:

"What surname are you changing to? There are no relatives with the surname Tang in your family for three generations."

This middle-aged couple started arguing...

Hmm, this is kind of cute!

It's addictive!

Wei Chaoyu even linked arms with Tang Li, declaring:

“If you search upwards, you won’t find it, but if you search downwards, you will find it. I’ve decided that from today onwards, I will take my daughter-in-law’s surname. Please call me Tang Chaoyu from now on.”

You have to admit, it's really nice to listen to.

I've seen children take their father's surname, their mother's surname, or even their stepfather's surname, but this is the first time I've seen someone take their daughter-in-law's surname.

Huo Yishen pulled her close and harshly criticized her:

"Stop messing around, go home, all of you go home. This is no place to change your surname."

Seeing that he had calmed down, Wei Chaoyu put his hand behind his back and beckoned to the young couple as he entered the elevator, signaling them to hurry up and get in.

It turns out that Huo Yishen's Achilles' heel lies with Wei Chaoyu!

Huo Chenyu was still a little sullen; it was Tang Li who dragged him in.

Inside the elevator, both father and son wore somber expressions.

Only Wei Chaoyu kept asking:

"Honey, what kind of food do you usually like? Tell Mom and I'll make it for you."

"What do you like to eat? Tell Mom what you like to eat, and Mom will make it for you."

"Don't think that you have to take supplements just because you're pregnant. We'll make what you want to eat, and we won't touch anything you don't want to eat. Pregnancy is already so uncomfortable, we can't let a single thing affect your mood."

"......"

This mother-in-law is a chatterbox.

As they exited the elevator, Tang Li finally had a chance to interject:

"Mom, I love everything you cook. I'm not a picky eater."

That one word, "Mom," thrilled Wei Chaoyu.

She stood frozen in the elevator, and Huo Yishen couldn't move her.

"Did you hear that? She called me Mom."

Wei Chaoyu shook Huo Yishen's arm.

Huo Yishen disagreed, saying:

"You've been a mother before, haven't you loved your own two kids enough?"

Two children?

Wei Chaoyu pinched his arm hard:

"Huo Yishen, I think you're the outsider in this family. You're so old, why don't you think things through?"

She was genuinely angry.

A very serious correction:

“I am a mother of three children. Although Shen Yu is not my son, he is a member of the Huo family, so he is my child.”

Huo Yishen is a rough and tough man who has spent most of his life in the cutthroat world of business, so his mind is naturally not as delicate as a woman's.

He defended himself in a low voice:

"In all these years, I've never heard him call you 'Mom' even once."

Many times, he spoke out in defense of his wife.

Without exception, he was always met with a retort from his wife:

“She has her own biological mother, so calling me ‘aunt’ is enough. Isn’t an aunt also a mother?”

She seems to take it all in stride.

Because Tang Li's calling her "Mom" made Wei Chaoyu happy all the way, Huo Yishen did not stop Tang Li from getting into the car.

But Huo Chenyu put his arm around Tang Li's slender waist and said:

"We'll ride in this car."

Once in the car, Tang Li asked softly, "Why aren't you going back with Mom and Dad?"

"I can't be bothered to look at his sour face."

Huo Chenyu was afraid that his burly father would say something embarrassing in front of others again.

Of course, another very important reason is that the Huo family has family rules.

Putting everything else aside, just the fact that Tang Li had to kneel for half an hour just to serve tea to the elders of the Huo family upon entering the house was enough to make Tang Li kneel for half an hour.

As Jiang Mian drove, he couldn't help but worry about Tang Li.

She's pregnant; I don't know if she can make it through.

Normally, people drive in through the main gate of the Huo family mansion, but today, for Huo Chenyu's wedding, the red carpet stretched from the gate all the way into the house, taking almost twenty minutes to walk.

Once inside the house, Tang Li would be waiting in the living room for his grandparents, father-in-law, mother-in-law, uncle, aunt, and other relatives to serve him tea.

The process was cumbersome, and its original purpose was to give the new bride a hard time.

Huo Chenyu still remembers when Wei Chaoyu came into the family, her grandparents did not accept her and made her kneel in the living room holding a cup of tea for two hours.
