The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 127

When Rong Dai saw him come in, she was startled.

"Get used to it slowly, okay? Every minute I spend with you, I don't want to miss a second of it." Huo Shao Ting saw her expression and reached out to tidy her messy hair, asking her gently.

Rong Dai's cheeks flushed as she thought of everything that had happened between the two of them in the bathroom earlier. Her mind started to wander uncontrollably.

Huo Shao Ting didn't say much more. After tidying her up, he started washing up.

The married couple came downstairs together for breakfast. Huo Mei Shu looked at the two of them being inseparable again, as if yesterday's discord was her illusion.

She glanced at Huo Shao Jie in confusion. Huo Shao Jie shook his head and lowered his voice, "I told you not to worry too much. My big brother knows his limits. It's good enough if you don't make things worse."

Huo Mei Shu rolled her eyes at him, too lazy to respond.

But it was a very good thing that the eldest brother and sister-in-law had made up. She quickly reported the "battle situation" to Lu Zheng and Huo Old Madam.

When Lu Zheng and Huo Old Madam got the news, they both breathed a sigh of relief. After all, what the whole family worried about most was Huo Shao Ting's personal issues.

Seeing the reply from the old lady, Huo Mei Shu's eyes inadvertently glanced at Huo Shao Jie across the table drinking milk. Her eyes flashed a hint of slyness.

This second brother, his head was always filled with acting. She didn't care about his personal issues, and she wouldn't feel bad if he stayed single for life.

But for this matter between the eldest brother and sister-in-law, his performance made Huo Mei Shu very dissatisfied.

Old grudges and new hatred added up, she immediately sent a message back to the old madam: The eldest brother's problem is solved. I think you and Granny should consider the second brother's marriage. If the timing is right, maybe you can hold two grandsons at the same time.

Seeing her daughter's reply, Lu Zheng frowned slightly, but after careful thought, it seemed to be the case.

Then she discussed with her old sister friends which family's daughter would be suitable, preparing to find a match for her second son when she returned.

Seeing the old lady's reply, Huo Mei Shu was very satisfied. She stared at Huo Shao Jie meaningfully for a few seconds.

"Why are you staring at me like that? I didn't say anything wrong. Didn't you see that eldest brother and sister-in-law married first, then fell in love? When people are in love, what are you messing around for?"

Huo Shao Jie felt a chill down his spine from her gaze. He knew his sister well.

This kind of look meant nothing good.

"Second brother, don't underestimate Mother's ability to worry. You tell me, now that eldest brother and sister-in-law's problem is solved, who should be next?"

Huo Mei Shu raised her eyebrows, extremely gloating.

Huo Shao Jie suddenly widened his eyes. This girl was up to no good!

"What are you two talking about? You seem so happy."

Before he could ask, Rong Dai and Huo Shao Ting walked over to the dining table. Rong Dai asked with a smile.

"Oh, nothing important. I'm just happy that sister-in-law and big brother get along so well. I feel like my dream of holding a nephew is not far off. So I asked Mom if it's time to arrange a marriage for second brother too. It's not right for him to just eat and live idly at home."

Huo Mei Shu ignored Huo Shao Jie's murderous gaze and smiled at Rong Dai to explain.

Rong Dai looked at the little uncle. Her face was thoughtful: "Well... it is time to consider it. Acting is tiring. Shao Jie, you also need someone to take care of you and accompany you."

Huo Shao Jie was distressed. What retribution did he suffer this morning? Why was he being rushed to marry?

"Although I don't object to living idly since I can afford it. But living idly and being incompetent, you should find a smarter person to discipline you."

Seeing his wife speak, Huo Shao Ting paused holding his chopsticks and glanced coldly at Huo Shao Jie again, also very much agreeing.

Huo Shao Jie: "..."

Was it still possible for him to pretend to pass out now?

"But don't rush it. You still have to find someone you love, so you can live your whole life happily, not miserably."

Seeing the little uncle's dejected appearance, Rong Dai quickly came to his rescue with a smile.

Huo Shao Jie immediately looked at her gratefully. After being glanced at indifferently by Huo Shao Ting, he obediently continued eating breakfast.

After breakfast, Rong Dai sent Huo Shao Ting off to work.

Hugging her by the waist before getting in the car, Huo Shao Ting kissed her forehead before happily going to the company.

Rong Dai's face was red. As soon as she turned around, she saw the little sister-in-law with a smile, looking eager for gossip. She wished she could dig a hole and bury herself!

"Sister-in-law, confess truthfully. Have you and my brother..."

Rong Dai understood clearly what the little sister-in-law was implying. Her cheeks couldn't help but burn.

If it hadn't been on the Ferris wheel last night, she and Huo Shao Ting might have really given themselves to each other.

She knew this era was more open-minded in certain aspects. She was also willing to try to understand and accept these fresh ideas.

But deep down she was still relatively conservative. She immediately glared at the little sister-in-law: "I think I can mention to your mom if it's time to finalize your marriage arrangements too. Why don't you tell me, who's the boy you like?"

Seeing that she couldn't get any gossip, and had brought trouble on herself, Huo Mei Shu immediately sighed: "Sister-in-law, you've changed. You didn't use to be like this."

Seeing her pretend resentment, Rong Dai was a little amused. She looked at the time and then asked her, "Didn't you say last time that you wanted to eat dessert? I plan to cook lunch for your eldest brother and bring it to him. I can also teach you how to make some desserts."

"Great! Sister-in-law, your cooking skills are simply amazing! You're my idol from now on!"

Thinking of the sister-in-law's superb cooking skills, Huo Mei Shu was excited to the point of flying up!

"But wouldn't that be too intrusive?"

Rong Dai hesitated a little. She had just thought of it.

Since Huo Shao Ting had given her so much patience and trust, no matter what the final outcome of this relationship, at least she wouldn't have regrets during the process.

She would just follow her heart.

"How could that be? Eldest brother will definitely be very happy!"

Huo Mei Shu said excitedly, impatiently pushing her into the kitchen.

Rong Dai didn't ask any more. She started preparing ingredients. The electrical appliances here were convenient, and the variety of ingredients was abundant. She was also willing to learn about and accept these novel things, so she spent the whole morning with the little sister-in-law in the kitchen.

"Sister-in-law, how can your skills be so good? I think if you open a restaurant with your cooking, it will definitely be a huge hit!"

Huo Mei Shu had her mouth full of freshly baked pastries, jumping for joy on the spot.

Rong Dai smiled gently. While packing the lunch she made for Huo Shao Ting, she said, "Forget about opening a restaurant. If you want to eat in the future, I can make it for you, or teach you. What I taught you today are relatively traditional desserts, pineapple cake and osmanthus sweet potato cake, not too difficult."

Huo Mei Shu nodded repeatedly, her eyes bubbling with excitement. Seeing her pack up the food, she volunteered, "Sister-in-law, let me take you to eldest brother's company."
