"What's wrong with the commander? He's a human being too. We're in the right, so what's there to be afraid of?"
Jiang Si wasn't afraid, it was just that the relationships between the various factions in the compound were complicated.
She wasn't sure if her outburst would disrupt the existing balance.
Don't overthink it, it's nothing.
Grandma Huo patted her hand, "Our two families have been at odds for a long time. It's good that we've broken off relations. It'll save us from having to deal with their whole family every time we meet in the future, which is exhausting."
Originally, she planned to tell Jiang Si about the complicated relationships within the compound after the banquet.
I never expected the Yu family to cause trouble at my door today.
Seeing this, Grandma Huo briefly explained the history between the two families to her so that she would have a better understanding.

Since then, the two families have had less contact.
Later, the Yu family focused on cultivating interpersonal relationships.
Grandma Huo sighed, "Next spring, the top military official will retire. Their family's commotion isn't just about making things difficult for you; their ultimate target is your father."
