Chapter 369 Huo Liancheng's attitude towards Qiao Chuchu changes
The servants put the gifts brought by Huo Yunzheng and Qiao Chuchu in the front hall. Huo Xiaonuan affectionately took her sister-in-law's arm and pushed Huo Yunzheng aside.
"Get out of the way, I want to get close to my sister-in-law, you're blocking the way."
Qiao Chuchu smiled at Huo Yunzheng, snorted playfully, and let Huo Xiaonuan pull her.
Huo Yunzheng had no choice but to pull his son and follow them.
In the front hall, Huo Liancheng was sitting on a chair sipping tea. When he saw his grandson and his wife coming back, he laughed out loud.
He was particularly happy today. It had been a long time since there were so many people in the Huo family.
Knowing that his grandson was still bothered by what happened in the past, Huo Liancheng did not mention Huo Jiayuan in front of him and just let him stay in the sanatorium.
Huo Jiayuan is still paralyzed in bed, and Huo Yunzheng does not allow anyone to take him back to the Huo family.
"Xiao Xi is here. Please sit down first. Lunch will take a while. You like fish, so I asked them to make braised fish. You can try it later to see if it suits your taste."
This was the first time Huo Liancheng showed such a kind look to Qiao Chuchu. Qiao Chuchu nodded, smiled and thanked him.
Shi Shi came in from outside and brought the tea herself.
"I prepared black tea for you, Xiaoxi. Girls should drink more black tea, it's good for your health."
Qiao Chuchu smiled faintly and looked at this nominal mother-in-law.
Shi Shi walked over and sat down next to Huo Shan, feeling uneasy.
Huo Liancheng no longer trusts her, and Huo Yunzheng holds the leverage over her. She is now walking on thin ice, feeling that she could fall into the abyss at any time.
But unfortunately, she couldn't attack Huo Yunzheng today. Today was a family dinner and the risk was too great. She couldn't just get herself involved.
Not worth the candle.
Because it was a family dinner, almost everyone in the Huo family was there, and Huo Yunshan also came back from his residence outside.
"I bought the pea yellow and donkey rolls you like. Do you want to try them now?"
Huo Liancheng is getting older, but he likes sweets more than before. He really is becoming more like a child as he gets older.
Huo Yunshan opened the package of the snack and handed it over.
"Let Xiaoxi have some too. I remember this girl also likes sweet things. And Ziyan, too."
Qiao Chuchu was a little surprised. Huo Liancheng's enthusiasm for her was a little too much. He had never had this attitude before.
Huo Yunshan raised his eyebrows, looking delighted.
It’s a good thing that the old man is good to Chuchu.
"Come, try it. This is a century-old store. I specially chose the low-sugar version. You won't get fat if you eat it."
Shi Shi sat aside and watched, feeling a little awkward.
She just couldn't stand the fact that Huo Yunzheng's family was getting face in front of the old man. All the benefits of the Huo family were taken away by them.
"The old man really loves Xiaoxi." Shi Shi said.
Huo Xiaonuan sat there sipping tea quietly. When she heard Shi Shi's words, her face immediately darkened.
"What my aunt said is true. My second sister-in-law is the eldest grandson's wife of our Huo family. Our Huo family doesn't love her, but loves outsiders."
Shi Shi smiled awkwardly, "Xiao Nuan, you misunderstood, that's not what I meant."
Huo Xiaonuan snorted softly, it’s not the best, look how jealous she was just now, is it that serious?
My second sister-in-law has a successful career and is talented outside. She is not a vase that depends on men. Marrying into the Huo family is a sign of their marrying up.
He is not like some people who, while relying on the Huo family for food and other things, still put on airs and pretend to be noble.
Huo Yunrui was also at home today. When he heard Huo Xiaonuan's sarcastic remarks about his mother, he became furious.
She's everywhere! What does this have to do with her? Why should she take the lead here?
Huo Yunrui's eyes were full of gloom, and he looked at Qiao Chuchu with an unfriendly look, as if he wanted to kick her and Huo Yunzheng out of the house.
Everything in the Huo family should belong to him. He is his father's most beloved youngest son and should have the right of inheritance.
When he joins the group in the future, he will definitely sideline Huo Yunzheng.
The boy, whose mind is not yet mature, is staring at Qiao Chuchu.
Huo Yunzheng naturally noticed this situation. He glanced at the man slowly, his eyes revealing disgust and disdain.
Nearing twelve o'clock, the food was served and the family sat around it.
Qiao Chuchu sat next to Huo Yunzheng. Her bowl was almost piled high with food, but Huo Yunzheng kept picking up food for her.
"That's enough. That's enough."
She is not a pig and cannot eat so much. He kept picking food for her, but he didn't pay any attention to baby Zi Yan and left the child to Xiao Nuan to take care of.
Huo Liancheng felt very relieved when he saw the interaction between the young couple.
As long as the couple has a good relationship, he will not have to worry about not having a great-grandson in the future. The dream of four generations living under the same roof can still be realized, and the Huo family will become more and more prosperous.
Huo Shan also looked at the same thing, but he did not think the same way as Huo Liancheng. He just felt that his son Huo Yunzheng had no future.
So many people are watching here, and he has no control over how they get along with each other in private, but he has to behave properly in public.
In Huo Shan's opinion, the reason why Huo Yunzheng has become so disobedient and disobeys his parents is because he did not marry a woman who is polite and filial.
She has been married into the Huo family for so long, but when has she ever served him and Shi Shi? She even asked his wife to serve tea and water to her, a junior.
This is simply outrageous!
"Xiao Xi, you are not young anymore, and you have been recuperating for a while. I see that you have handed over your clothing store to someone else to take care of it. It is important to find some time to have a child with Yun Zheng and continue the incense for our Huo family as soon as possible."
Huo Shan spoke shamelessly and began to point fingers here.
Huo Yunshan and Huo Xiaonuan looked at Huo Shan at the same time, wondering what had suddenly occurred to him.
What Huo Shan said was also what Huo Liancheng wanted to say, but there was one difference. Huo Liancheng would not rush him.
He is still in good health and can last for a few more years. It is up to them to decide when to have another child.
"That's right, Dad, you're right. A woman's main task is to take care of her husband and children. Sister-in-law, if you have another child, you have to be careful. Don't let it be like last time when you couldn't keep it."
Huo Yunrui also echoed, looking very proud.
He brought up this matter deliberately just to hurt Qiao Chuchu and Huo Yunzheng. After all, he was young and could say anything. The worst that could happen was that he would be scolded.
He just wanted to make things difficult for Huo Yunzheng and Qiao Chuchu, and besides, what he said was true.
Hearing this, Huo Xiaonuan glared at Huo Yunrui, "It's none of your business. Why are you meddling in this? You are so young, are you talking like a human being? You are so disrespectful to women. What? Aren't you born by your mother? Is the meaning of your mother's life to revolve around you?"
As Huo Xiaonuan spoke, she looked at Shi Shi and said, "Aunt, look, this is your beloved son. I really feel sorry for you."
Huo Xiaonuan imitated Huo Yunrui's tone and deliberately ridiculed Shi Shi.
"I didn't say anything about my mother." Huo Yunrui instantly lost his confidence and his voice became smaller.
Huo Xiaonuan sneered and mocked, "Really? Then you are really hypocritical. You say one thing in front of others and another behind their backs. How dare you, with such low literacy and no knowledge of what gender equality is, be a descendant of our Huo family? You have read so much that you are a dog."
