The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 271

"However, Old Madam doesn't want you to get involved in this matter too much."

Suddenly, Old Madam's expression became serious.

Rong Dai was a bit confused, thinking about how Mei Shu cried so much last night, if Mei Shu really spoke up.

She might... really have no way to refuse.

Seeing her expression, Old Madam sighed and gently patted her hand with her wrinkled old hand.

"In this family, it will be up to you and Shaoting to maintain it. As long as there is someone with a strong determination, this family will endure."

"Your mother-in-law has lived a life of ease and luxury. She can't handle so many twists and turns."

"The life of an influential family is not easy. Anything you obtain requires time and effort to maintain."

While speaking, Old Madam sighed, her face filled with deep concern.

People always say that influential families are glorious, with endless wealth and breathtaking scenery.

But only those who are part of an influential family truly understand the bitterness and hardships within.

"That child, Meishu, hasn't faced much hardship since she was young and hasn't experienced setbacks. She's grown up now, and there are some things she needs to face and solve on her own."

"If there comes a day when you can't protect her anymore, will she just sit back and wait for her demise?"

"Although Shaojie, that child, is not at home, he has his own opinions and abilities. I don't have to worry about him."

"But Meishu is different. She grew up following her mother, and her personality is similar to your mother-in-law's. She's very reliant on others."

"This kind of habit is not good. You can't help her with it. Later, I'll have Uncle Li send you back and bring her back. Don't worry about other matters."

"You just need to focus on your work and live your life with Shaoting. It might be a bit tough for you, but Old Madam wants to see you and Shaoting's child sooner."

Old Madam earnestly advised her, and when she reached the end, a loving yet somewhat guilty smile appeared on her face.

Rong Dai felt a warmth in her heart.

There's a saying that goes, "Parents love their children and make far-reaching plans for them."

Old Madam has worked tirelessly for this family, and Rong Dai, having been in charge herself, naturally understands the difficulties involved.

She smiled and nodded, "Since you've said so, Old Madam, I will do as you say. However, in doing so, Mei Shu might have to endure some hardships."

Thinking about Mei Shu's carefree nature, it would indeed be quite challenging for her to handle this matter on her own.

"I'm afraid she can't handle hardships now, and she'll have an endless amount of hardships in the future!"

"She has to live her own life. How long can you protect her? Besides, matters between husband and wife are not something that we, as siblings-in-law, should meddle in."

Old Madam sighed, and her worried expression deepened on her aged face.

Rong Dai wasn't good at comforting others, so she poured tea for her and chatted with Old Madam for a while. When she saw that Old Madam was getting tired, she helped her upstairs to rest.

After coming out of Old Madam's room, she went to knock on her mother-in-law's door.

Lu Zheng opened it, and when she saw Rong Dai, her expression was indifferent.

Rong Dai thought of what happened on New Year's Eve, and she felt a bit awkward inside.

"Mom, take care of yourself. If there's anything, just give me a call. I'll go back to work now."

Lu Zheng looked at her for a few seconds and nodded.

"You also need to take care of yourself. Don't bother too much about Mei Shu's matters. Let her handle it on her own. Just focus on your work."

Although her mother-in-law's words sounded a bit stern, there was also concern in them, gradually dispelling Rong Dai's anxiety.

"Thank you, Mom. I'll go back now."

Rong Dai obediently nodded, then went downstairs and sat in Uncle Li's car, heading back to Huafu Mountain City.

When she arrived in Huafu Mountain City, Huo Mei Shu had already packed her luggage.

"Sister-in-law, thank you for picking me up last night."

Huo Mei Shu applied eye masks, and the swelling had reduced significantly. She had put on light makeup, looking less haggard.

"You have work to do, so I'll go back to the Huo residence. If you need any help, just let me know, sister-in-law. I'll be there for you!"

Rong Dai nodded and tidied up her collar, earnestly advising her.

"Mei Shu, your straightforwardness is a good thing. But sometimes, when you're particularly anxious and angry, remind yourself to calm down first."

"You're intelligent, and you'll surely come up with a solution. If you really don't want to continue anymore, you can still go abroad to pursue your studies."

Huo Mei Shu nodded, then dragged her suitcase and put it in the trunk, leaving Huafu Mountain City with Uncle Li.

Rong Dai took a brief rest and then went to the embroidery room to work.

She was so engrossed in her work that it was already evening until Lu Nianzhi pressed the doorbell several times, making her realize that it was already late.

"Work is important, but you also need to have your meals on time."

Lu Nianzhi came in carrying a thermal lunchbox, washing her hands in the kitchen while arranging the food.

"These past few days, there have been some important matters that delayed me. I was afraid I wouldn't make it in time."

Rong Dai washed her hands and sat down. Fortunately, she didn't smell the aroma of the food, but as soon as she caught a whiff, her stomach growled.

Lu Nianzhi sat across from her, watching her eat, while taking out a tablet from her bag and opening a news article for her to read.

"Take a look at this person. Do you recognize her?"

Rong Dai's chopsticks paused for a moment as she looked at the photo in the news. It took her a few seconds to recall.

"Isn't this Yang Wanwan, who used the pseudonym Wang Rui?"

She almost forgot about this name.

As soon as she remembered, it felt like the incident had happened just yesterday.

Lu Nianzhi nodded and put away the tablet before speaking. "It's her, no doubt. I've already contacted Lu Hong to confirm."

"She originally planned to sneak abroad, but the boat she was on had an accident, and several people who were sneaking with her drowned."

Rong Dai's eating motion paused for a moment, feeling a bit surprised, followed by a sense of lament.

Yang Wanwan.

This name used to be quite famous in the industry, with a lot of fans supporting her.

If only she had cherished her reputation and not been so temperamental, she could still be living a glamorous life now.

"I had almost forgotten about this person."

She casually spoke a few words and continued to eat her meal, completely unaffected.

Her mental resilience had always been this strong. Even if there was a dead body lying in front of her, she would still eat as if nothing had happened.

Moreover, Yang Wanwan had almost caused her to lose her life, so she didn't have the compassion to pity someone who had plotted against her.

"I just came to let you know, so you can feel relieved." 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝑒𝔀𝓮𝘣𝘯𝘰𝘷𝑒𝓵.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Lu Nianzhi smiled. When she accepted this job, she had done her research.

Rong Dai, this girl, was indeed different from other girls.

She was extremely calm, not even resembling a 22-year-old young girl.

"Please confirm the manuscript for the competition. If there are no issues, I will prepare the PPT and send it to TK's email. Additionally, we need to prepare an original design manuscript for them."

Only then did Lu Nianzhi shift the conversation to the actual matter at hand.
