Chapter 95: Here Comes the Sinner



Chapter 95

"Mrs. Wang, I told you not to disturb me when I\'m working..."

When Huo Mei Shu opened the door and saw it was Mrs. Wang, she was a little annoyed.

"Miss, Old Mrs. Wen from the Wen family is here, and she brought a lawyer with her. I\'ve already called Madam and asked her to come back quickly. The Madam has gone downstairs already."

Mrs. Wang looked anxious. She also knew a little about the things online. Who could have thought that the young miss from the Wen family would be so vicious?

"Calling my mom back is useless. Call my big brother back, that\'s useful. Mrs. Wang, go call my big brother. I\'ll go down and stand up for my sister-in-law. I hate that old lady from the Wen family the most."

As soon as Huo Mei Shu heard this, her expression changed instantly. She instructed Mrs. Wang while heading downstairs.

Rong Dai was already sitting in the living room. Old Mrs. Wen looked very spirited, but Rong Dai could tell with one glance that this old lady was not a good person.

"Mrs. Wen, how do you have time to come to such a remote place in my family?" Although Huo Mei Shu had a smiling face when she came down, her words were barbed.

Having been in the imperial harem for thirty years, how could Rong Dai not understand the meaning behind her words?

She also knew that the old lady from the Wen family must be here for no good reason, most likely because of Wen Shi Lan\'s affairs.

She didn\'t interrupt. Her eyes inconspicuously sized up the old lady.

It was obvious that Old Mrs. Wen was a little surprised when Huo Mei Shu came downstairs. Clearly, she did not expect that Huo Mei Shu would be home.

At the same time, Rong Dai also felt a little heavy at heart. It seemed that the Wen family had been keeping an eye on her life.

They wanted to come "pay a visit" when the Huo family members were not at home. Their intentions were quite deep.

She had investigated Rong Dai\'s background and found nothing. This time, it was Shi Lan who had not done a perfect job and got caught, which was just bad luck for the Wen family.

But the decades of friendship between the Wen family and the Huo family, could it really not compare to a Rong Dai?

Huo Shao Ting was not a shallow person who could be fooled by a pretty face.

After she analyzed the pros and cons, how could the Huo family still side with this woman who did not know her place?

Before the old lady could finish speaking, Huo Mei Shu sat down next to Rong Dai. How ridiculous! This was her home, yet this old lady wanted to play the host?

Even without the old lady saying it, she already knew what she was here for.

Other than Wen Shi Lan\'s troubles, what else could it be?

The old lady was not embarrassed. After all, she had lived to such an old age and would not get angry over such trivial matters.

Her gaze looked up and down at Rong Dai, with a rather satisfied smile on her face and in her eyes, as if Rong Dai was their Wen family\'s daughter-in-law.

"That boy Shao Ting is lucky to have married such a pretty wife." The old lady spoke, looking at Rong Dai meaningfully. No wonder her Shi Lan had lost.

"Thank you for your compliment, Granny Wen. But I don\'t think the word \'pretty\' suits my sister-in-law. I think my sister-in-law is a country-toppling beauty."

Huo Mei Shu would not stand for it and immediately retorted, hugging Rong Dai\'s arm.

Who cared about this damn "pretty"?

Rong Dai was crying and laughing inside. This little sister-in-law was first class at protecting her loved ones, biting back at every word.

Old Mrs. Wen immediately snorted coldly upon being countered by Huo Mei Shu in this way. The look in her eyes showed dissatisfaction and hostility.

Even with her tolerance, being attacked by Huo Mei Shu again and again like this was unbearable, let alone the fact that she had come today for proper business.

She had only wanted to take the opportunity to talk to Rong Dai while the Huo family was away, and the matter would be settled.

But since the Huo family was home, Huo Shao Ting would surely be back very soon too.

Then there was no need for her to beat around the bush anymore. In any case, she had already come to their door, so how could the Huo family not even give her this bit of face?

She had investigated Rong Dai\'s background and found nothing. It was just Shi Lan who had not done a perfect job this time and got caught, which was just bad luck for their Wen family.

But the decades of friendship between the Wen family and Huo family, could it really not outweigh a Rong Dai?

Huo Shao Ting was not a shallow person who could be fooled by a pretty face.

After she analyzed the pros and cons, how could the Huo family still take the side of this woman who did not know her place?

Huo Mei Shu could barely hold in her anger after hearing this. Fortunately, Rong Dai was sitting next to her and lightly patted the back of her hand to signal her to remain calm.

She looked up at Old Mrs. Wen with a faint smile, dignified and tranquil.

"I will take Granny Wen\'s words as a warning."

Old Mrs. Wen immediately let out a cold snort. The look in her eyes showed dissatisfaction and hostility.

Rong Dai could see all this clearly, but she found it laughable.

This old lady had obviously not figured out the situation. This was the Huo family, not the Wen family.

"I wonder if Granny has read a poem called \'Visiting Jinmen\'? It\'s a very good poem that my grandmother often tells me to read more. I think it\'s quite nice and feel that Granny Wen would like it too."

As soon as she said this, Old Mrs. Wen\'s expression turned ugly and she scolded Rong Dai coldly, "Are you implying that I\'m meddling? As an elder, can I not teach you a lesson?"

Rong Dai still had a faint smile and remained composed. Then she instructed Mrs. Wang, "Mrs. Wang, I remember we still have some fresh lotus seeds. Please make a cup of tea for the elderly."

"Don\'t misunderstand me, Granny Wen. I didn\'t mean that. It\'s just a poem my grandmother often has me read. Since Granny Wen is an elder, I should share nice things with you too."

She looked back at Old Mrs. Wen, her tone gentle and humble.

Old Mrs. Wen\'s expression darkened in anger, "You\'re really sharp-tongued! No wonder the friendship between the Huo and Wen families has been ruined by you! I said Shao Ting has always been reasonable, so how could he be so heartless this time? Turns out you\'re the one causing trouble!"

Since Rong Dai was being impolite, and everyone understood why she had come today, the old lady no longer bothered to pretend.

She glared sharply at Rong Dai, full of authority, and rebuked her sternly.

Seeing the old lady lose her composure so quickly, Rong Dai found it even more laughable inside.

The Wen family and the Huo family did have a good friendship, but she was now the Huo family\'s daughter-in-law.

Even if she was still an outsider to the Huo family, it would only be between her and the Huo\'s loved ones.

To them, the Wen family was also outsiders, and even more so than her.

This old lady clearly had not figured out her own position, yet dared to scold others here. Her intellect was worrying. Having lived to this age yet still being so muddled.

"Old Mrs. Wen, what do you mean by this? Did my sister-in-law force Wen Shi Lan to harm her? My sister-in-law is not crazy!"

Huo Mei Shu\'s temper flared up instantly, her face flushed as she refuted.

In any case, the Wen and Huo families had already torn their faces over this matter. Even if sister-in-law was an outsider, she was still family. Who did this old hag think she was to run over and lecture them!
