Chapter 237: Don’t want anyone to give her a hard time.
Chapter 237
This power should have originally been handed over by Grandma to Mother-in-law, and then she would take it over from Mother-in-law later.
But now Grandma handed it over to her directly over Mother-in-law\'s head, although she was willing to accept it, Mother-in-law\'s attitude made her feel half cold in her heart.
Besides, she was not clear about the interpersonal relationships in the Huo family either, and the ways of dealing with things here were also very different from her previous life.
Although she was very calm and composed in front of people just now, only she herself knew that she was anxious in her heart.
Huo Shao Ting knew that she had a keen mind, and Mother Lu Zheng\'s attitude must have made her worried.
But how could he let her be in a dilemma?
"Don\'t worry, I\'m here, no one will make things difficult for you."
What he said was the truth.
There is a saying that one should look at the Buddha\'s face rather than the monk\'s face. The Huo family\'s status was still there.
Even if someone deliberately wanted to make things difficult, they would have to weigh their own status.
Although Rong Dai knew that this was his heartfelt words, the communication between women was not that simple.
"Don\'t think too much about it. I will handle things well on my mother\'s side."
Huo Shao Ting knew the reason for her anxiety, so he gave her a reassurance.
Rong Dai nodded. The couple made some night snacks and went out together.
"Or should I take it to Mother myself?"
Huo Shao Ting stroked her head, smiling indulgently, "You go rest, I\'ll take it up."
Rong Dai thought about it and did not refuse either. She turned around and left the kitchen, and the three of them ate and stayed up together with the old lady.
Huo Shao Ting took the glutinous rice balls with sweet wine filling upstairs and knocked on Lu Zheng\'s door.
When Lu Zheng opened the door and saw it was him, she didn\'t say anything. She turned around and went into the bedroom to sit on the sofa.
Huo Shao Ting pursed his lips, put down the tray, and stood with his hands in his pockets, looking at her with a flat gaze.
"You will make Rong Dai feel embarrassed like this. This matter was proposed by Grandma. Rong Dai didn\'t do anything wrong."
Lu Zheng\'s eyes suddenly turned red. She raised her head in disbelief at the eldest son in front of her.
"You don\'t have to look at me like that. Even if you are my own mother, I won\'t give you face either. You should be clear about my personality after so many years."
"If you feel that you have the ability to take on this important task, of course Grandma and I have nothing to say. But you are very clear yourself about what you can do over the years."
"To put it another way, it is my wife who is undertaking this for you. I don\'t object if you want to go back to your maternal home, and you can stay there for as long as you want."
Huo Shao Ting said coldly.
He was brought up by Old Lady Huo with her own hands. Even if he had enjoyed the warmth of affection, it was from Old Lady Huo.
The mother in front of him was just the one who gave birth to him, as far as Huo Shao Ting was concerned.
Sometimes Huo Shao Ting even felt that he might be really indifferent by nature. He had tried to change it before.
But he couldn\'t do it.
Now Rong Dai was the person he treasured the most, unmatched by anyone else in the Huo family.
Now she only had him. If he didn\'t protect her, who else could protect her?
He had a meticulous mind. What Grandma did was actually more to put shackles on Rong Dai.
The Huo family looked glorious, but some problems were deeply rooted.
Lu Zheng didn\'t have the ability to resolve these issues, but Rong Dai did.
"If you want to hate, you can hate me. I was the one who brought her into the family. I hope that you can respect her a little more, for the sake of this family, for me, and for my father\'s life\'s work."
"I will have someone send over tomorrow the jewellery that my father left behind. If you haven\'t prepared a New Year\'s gift for Rong Dai, I can give you money. Even if you just give her a red envelope, that\'s fine too."
Huo Shao Ting did not pay attention to Lu Zheng\'s expression, and said everything he needed to say.
Lu Zheng could hardly believe her ears. The son she gave birth to would actually talk to her like this!
But she knew clearly in her heart that she really didn\'t have the ability of a housekeeper.
At least when it came to resolving things with the Huo family relatives, she didn\'t have much of a solution.
Although the control of Huo Enterprise was now in Huo Shao Ting\'s hands, there were other people from the Huo family who started the business together at the beginning.
Although over the years they only got dividends and didn\'t interfere with the company\'s affairs, money was the priority.
Now that the Huo family had become so big, it was inevitable that some people would be envious, and it would also make some people dissatisfied.
She couldn\'t balance such a situation. It was only because Old Lady was still around that no storms had arisen for the time being.
Lu Zheng sighed helplessly, and was a little annoyed.
She was annoyed that Mother-in-law didn\'t discuss it with her, but made such an arrangement in front of her children, which was like a sudden blow!
"I know everything your Grandma said makes sense, but her doing this, where does it put my face? When I go out in the future, what will those old sisters of mine say about me?"
"Your Grandma didn\'t consider my feelings at all. She really thought I only cared about those jewels?"
"It\'s true that I love jewellery, but I\'m not that traditional either. "
"I just feel that this is a ceremony. Even if your Grandma handed it to me for just two or three days before I passed it on to Rong Dai, it would be the same!"
Lu Zheng said with a sigh, full of grievance in her tone.
It was said that it was difficult for an honest official to settle family disputes, but this topic did not exist for Huo Shao Ting.
"The same?"
He raised his eyebrows and said lightly with a chuckle: "Over the years, the jewellery that Grandma has given you is not a small amount, plus those left by my dad. Without saying they could rival a country\'s riches, at least just adding up, there would be 70-80 billion yuan worth. Where did they all go?"
"It\'s not that this person borrowed them to attend a social event and hasn\'t returned them, it\'s that as soon as someone flatters you, you lose your bearings and directly give it away."
Lu Zheng\'s old face turned red under his words, rendered speechless for a moment.
"Have you taken back even one piece over the years?"
Lu Zheng: "......"
She couldn\'t utter a single word with her neck stuck out.
"If you want to live in leisure and comfort, just listen to Grandma\'s arrangement on this matter. I don\'t want anyone in this family to make things difficult for her. It was my good fortune to have married Rong Dai."
"If this family cannot accommodate her, I will take her away. You can mess around however you want."
Huo Shao Ting had no intention of continuing to analyze with her. He knew the conditions he offered would tempt Lu Zheng.
