The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 236

After the old lady finished speaking, the living room was quiet except for the sound of the gala.

"Granny, can I... also give my share to sister-in-law?"

After a few seconds, Huo Mei Shu looked at Lu Zheng a little guiltily. Her gaze quickly shifted to Huo Old Madam. She asked a little timidly.

"I gave it to you, and how you allocate it is your freedom. Granny won't interfere," the old lady said with a kindly, amiable smile on her face again.

Rong Dai was sweating a little, but she had already thought of a strategy in her heart about how to coax the mother-in-law well.

The old lady handed over the authority of the housekeeper to her, which was her trust in her, and her approval of her.

She also wanted to be able to become Huo Shao Ting's virtuous wife.

"Shao Jie, get up early tomorrow. I want to go back to my maternal home for a while."

Lu Zheng's face was very gloomy. Seeing that even her own daughter didn't support her, she stood up abruptly.

With a gloomy face, she instructed Huo Shao Jie after throwing the pillow on the sofa and went upstairs.

Rong Dai didn't expect her mother-in-law to react so strongly. This was probably not going to be possible to coax her mother-in-law in a short period of time.

But she was really innocent.

She didn't expect the old lady to announce this suddenly either.

"Mom..."

Huo Mei Shu wanted to call her back. She was both angry and anxious in her heart.

Although Granny was a little rushed tonight, she was her own mother. She was very clear about what kind of temperament she had.

And she was also very clear about her own ability.

Besides, she was going to get married in the future and would not be able to manage the household.

Granny was old, and her own mother didn't have the sophisticated social skills either.

Her second brother was not married yet. Her eldest brother was already working very hard with the company's affairs alone.

Now only sister-in-law could take on this responsibility.

She really didn't understand what her mother was making a fuss about.

Did she want her to deal with those noble ladies' gatherings and only be able to cry when she was ridiculed?

"Granny, sister-in-law, don't take it to heart. I'll go upstairs to persuade her."

Seeing the atmosphere was wrong, Huo Mei Shu didn't want to think about her idol anymore. She immediately threw down the pillow and got up to go upstairs.

"Forget it, let her go."

The old lady raised her hand to signal her to sit down and took a sip of the hot tea: "After so many years, don't I know what kind of temperament she has?"

"Shao Jie, take her back tomorrow. Remember to bring the New Year's gift for the Lu family. I have asked Aunt Wang to prepare it. You can ask Aunt Wang tomorrow."

Huo Shao Jie nodded. He was naturally very clear about the temperament of his old mother, and he was also very helpless.

"Sister-in-law will have a hard time from now on, having to socialize politely with those people... It's much more tiring than acting."

His eyes fell on Rong Dai as he spoke flatly, with a hint of admiration in his eyes as he looked at her.

In these months of shooting at the film and television city, he had truly witnessed his sister-in-law's ability.

She was naturally gifted in dealing with any problem perfectly.

He had directed many dramas, but none of the crews had ever been as harmonious as the Empress crew.

Although Qiao Wan Zhou and Zhou Jing were also factors, his sister-in-law's attitude and wrist made him convinced.

His own mother didn't have that ability. This family still needed a lady of the house.

His big brother managed the company, his sister-in-law managed the household, it was perfect!

"Cut the flattery. Give something practical. Don't think I don't know what you're up to. My wife does all the hard work, what does your wife do?"

Huo Shao Ting picked up the conversation, and his meaning couldn't be more obvious.

Huo Shao Jie shrugged. Although his handsome face still showed some fatigue, his smile was still very charming.

"I know."

Rong Dai felt very speechless and helpless at Huo Shao Ting's way of asking for benefits right to her face.

But it was also because the two brothers had a good relationship that they could speak so directly. Otherwise, this would have led to a fight in other families.

"Granny, I'll also give my share to sister-in-law. I can earn enough in the future to support my wife and children. If I have nothing to eat, I'll go to sister-in-law's house for food!"

Huo Shao Jie leaned back lazily on the sofa, calculating loudly.

Rong Dai was a little amused.

This whole family really... left her not knowing what to say.

But she was also grateful for their trust and approval.

"Then that's your business. Anyway, I've given it to you."

Although Lu Zheng had slighted her, the old lady was still in a very good mood.

"Sister-in-law, you'll have a hard time from now on. If there's anything I can help with, just ask. I'd go through fire and water to help!"

The little sister-in-law also chimed in.

Rong Dai smiled wryly. Although she was happy that they were so candid, it also meant that she had to do these things well, which would take some effort.

"With Granny's gift, it's enough. Shao Jie, after you get married, you'll still need some things to make your wife happy."

"And Mei Shu, you'll also get married in the future. It's always good to have some private money."

"Besides, isn't Shao Ting still here? I'm about to start my own brand soon, and this is enough."

She said with a faint, gentle smile on her face.

She knew her own ability, so she dared to take on this responsibility.

"It's just that Mom may not be too happy. No need to go through fire and water, please help me coax Mom more."

"Granny, I'm very grateful for your trust and approval of me. I will learn earnestly and help Shao Ting manage this family well."

Her eyes fell on the old lady. Her words were very tactful, but very clear.

She agreed to take on this responsibility not to gain anything, but solely because of Huo Shao Ting.

The old lady and Huo Shao Jie were smart people who understood her implication immediately upon hearing this sentence. f𝐫eewe𝚋nove𝗹.𝗰o𝚖

Huo Mei Shu's reaction time was a little slower. She only thought her words were humble.

Huo Shao Ting held her hand, feeling distressed and tender in his heart.

He understood her thoughts.

"That's good. The only thing I need to explain is this. While I can still move these old bones of mine, I won't go anywhere this year. I'll just take you to see."

The old lady nodded in satisfaction with a benevolent smile.

Rong Dai glanced at the time. It was already 11 pm.

"I'll make some snacks. After eating so much meat just now, eating something to clear the grease while staying up for New Year's Eve is good."

Huo Shao Ting felt distressed for her and followed her to the kitchen.

Once in the kitchen, Rong Dai didn't immediately start preparing the snacks. Instead, she leaned her head against Huo Shao Ting's chest and said in a slightly muffled voice: "Shao Ting, what if I don't do well?"

Although she dared to take on this responsibility, the ancient times and the modern era were different after all. She was not confident that she could really do a good job.

Also, her mother-in-law was a problem.
