The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 100

"Thank you, Mei Shu," although feeling complicated, she still reached out and hugged Huo Mei Shu back lightly, answering her softly.

She was grateful for the Huo family's kindness.

If they had not been magnanimous enough, then when she was still in the hospital, it was possible that she and Huo Shao Ting would have divorced. She really could not imagine what kind of life she would be living now.

She believed that if Huo Shao Ting had really insisted on a divorce at that time, with her just having arrived with no power, she would have had no way to resist.

But Huo Shao Ting did not, he chose to be tolerant.

And she caused so much trouble for the Huo family again and again. Although mother-in-law did not like her, she still defended her in front of outsiders and gave her enough face.

She saw all this very clearly.

And that was why she felt guilty.

To use Madam Wen's words, she was indeed a woman without a background, and had such a disgraceful past.

If it was any other wealthy and noble family, they would have discarded her long ago. How could they still possibly defend her? And do so much for her?

"How much longer are you going to keep hugging my wife before letting go?"

The two sisters-in-law were having an intimate moment when Huo Shao Ting suddenly came in like a ghost, looking down condescendingly, his face cold as he gazed at Huo Mei Shu and spoke very indifferently.

Huo Mei Shu stuck out her tongue and quickly let go of Rong Dai.

When Rong Dai heard his voice, she also quickly collected herself and looked back at him, "You're back. Work must have been tiring today. What do you want to eat tonight? I can make it for you."

"Sister-in-law, you're biased! I want to eat too!"

Huo Mei Shu immediately disagreed. The taste of that potsticker was unforgettable.

She also really wanted to see what other unexpected sides her sister-in-law had. She really could not imagine what kind of creature a person who could embroider, act, and cook so deliciously could be!

"Dinner will be taken care of by Auntie Wang. Your sister-in-law's foot is not well yet. You went shopping today already, I'm not settling accounts with you yet, and you still want to order my wife to cook?"

Huo Shao Ting immediately raised his eyebrows threateningly and looked at her.

Huo Mei Shu really wanted to roll her eyes. This bull protecting his calf was even more intense than him!

Rong Dai was embarrassed and quickly explained, "It was me who asked Mei Shu to accompany me to buy some things today. And my foot is almost completely healed, walking normally is not a problem now. After some more rehab I'll be good as new. "

She didn't want her sister-in-law to take the blame for no reason. Fortunately, her sister-in-law had an easygoing personality and was not the nitpicking, petty type.

Otherwise, just based on what Huo Shao Ting had said several times now would have been enough to make her sister-in-law hate her to death.

"You still need to pay more attention to rest. Your hands are for embroidery, cooking frequently will make your hands become rough."

Huo Shao Ting forcibly reminded her. He actually just didn't want Rong Dai to cook for his whole family. If she cooked, it should only be for him alone.

"Big brother, I see it now. You just want sister-in-law to only cook for you alone, why beat around the bush?"

Huo Mei Shu was really convinced.

But when she thought about it, she could understand too. This monk was unrestrained after thirty years of abstinence, this primal power was unstoppable.

She was just an ordinary person, self-preservation came first.

Rong Dai didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Outsiders probably could hardly imagine that the daily interactions between the Huo siblings were like this, constantly attacking each other.

"It's fine, you can help me. Auntie also happened to come back early today. I haven't cooked for the family before either."

She quickly smoothed things over. It was just making a meal, she was not so sentimental.

She also wanted to do something for the Huo family, to slightly compensate for the guilt in her heart.

"Mei Shu, call Xiao Jie and ask him to come back for dinner too. Work is tiring for the crew, if he can eat at home then eat at home."

She also took the opportunity to get her little uncle to come back. Otherwise, what would it become if this got out?

She didn't want her reasons to affect the relationship between the siblings. And if little uncle came back, she could also learn a bit more about the progress of this drama.

Huo Mei Shu thought about how pitiful her second brother looked today, and was a little sympathetic. So she nodded in agreement.

Huo Shao Ting helplessly looked at her with a doting expression, and reached out to grasp her slender hand. The couple went downstairs together.

Seeing the two being so lovey-dovey, Huo Mei Shu suddenly felt a little envious of her "expelled" second brother.

At least he didn't have to hurt his eyes and heart!

Eating too much sour lemons makes you lose teeth, okay?

"Auntie Wang, we'll take over, you go rest."

When she got to the kitchen and saw Auntie Wang preparing the dishes, Rong Dai gently said.

Seeing the couple coming into the kitchen together, knowing that Young Master could cook, and seeing this young couple getting along so well now, Auntie Wang was happy in her heart. She immediately washed her hands and left laughing cheerfully.

"Auntie Wang, what are you laughing about?"

Lu Zheng had just finished changing clothes upstairs and came down, still feeling a little uncomfortable inside after Madam Wen's disturbance today.

Auntie Wang quickly put away her smile. She had gotten to know everyone in the Huo family's temperaments after working here so many years.

She went up and whispered, "Madam, Young Missus and Young Master are making dinner in the kitchen. Madam, your wish will come true soon."

Lu Zheng's eyes immediately brightened. She knew about what happened with Rong Dai and the other three at the mall today, and with Old Madam Wen coming to stir up trouble again, the heart she had just put down a few days ago was gripped again.

Now hearing that the couple was getting along well and even cooking together in the kitchen, she was relieved again.

She was really afraid these things would affect her son. If he got tired of it and simply divorced Rong Dai, then trying to find a daughter-in-law to be by his side afterward would be harder than ascending to heaven.

Although Rong Dai's previous matters made her speechless, as long as she could get along well with her son, she would not dwell on those things.

"Madam can take a look and see for herself. Young Missus' cooking skills are quite good. Last time she made hand-pulled noodles for Young Master, and last night she cooked potstickers and bird's nest soup for Young Miss."

Auntie Wang had a smile on her face again as she explained.

Lu Zheng nodded and let Auntie Wang go rest while she herself quietly went to the kitchen door to take a look.

She saw the young couple in the kitchen, Huo Shao Ting was responsible for washing vegetables, cutting them, and assisting, while Rong Dai was responsible for cooking. They coordinated very tacitly, just like an old married couple who had been together for over a decade.

Rong Dai concentrated on cooking, Huo Shao Ting concentrated on watching her, stealing tastes from time to time, earning quite a few helpless sighs from Rong Dai.

Watching them, Lu Zheng's eyes involuntarily turned red, and inexplicably thought of her late husband.

When she had just entered the Huo family, he had defended her everywhere like her eldest son now. The two of them had also cooked in the kitchen like this before.

Now the children were all grown up. She often thought of those times from before, but some were blurred.

Seeing this scene now, she couldn't help but tear up.

Seeing the two of them harmonious, Lu Zheng was also relieved. She quietly walked away.

In the kitchen, although it was the couple's first time cooperating to cook like this, they were very tacit, just like an old married couple who had been together for over a decade.

Rong Dai concentrated on cooking, Huo Shao Ting concentrated on watching her, stealing tastes from time to time, earning quite a few helpless sighs from Rong Dai.
