The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 33

"Rong Dai? Is it you who made noodles for my elder brother?"

Seeing it was Rong Dai coming out from the kitchen, Huo Mei Shu's face was cold and fierce. She questioned her in a sharp and harsh voice!

Rong Dai was so frightened that she jumped. How could just making a meal anger the young aunt?

"I...I made it, what's wrong?"

"What's wrong?" Huo Mei Shu was furious, looking at her with fiery eyes. "Don't you know my elder brother has to be hospitalized for three days every time he eats noodles? He has a bad stomach and can't eat flour foods! No one in our family dares to make noodles to eat. You actually cooked noodles for my elder brother. Are you trying to sincerely kill him?"

Rong Dai's face turned deathly pale, her gaze dazed and startled as she looked at Huo Shao Ting.

She just wanted to make him something to eat to coax him, and then let him get over the misunderstanding about her unwillingness to see him and her going to see Wen Shi Lan privately.

But she didn't know Huo Shao Ting couldn't eat noodles!

"Huo Mei Shu."

Huo Shao Ting's face turned cold. He looked at Huo Mei Shu displeasedly. His gaze was sharp.

"Shao Ting, let's...let's hurry to the hospital! Or does the house have medicine to induce vomiting? You just ate it, it probably hasn't been absorbed yet."

Rong Dai was so frightened that her hands and feet turned ice cold. She didn't pay attention to Huo Mei Shu's attitude, but looked at him anxiously, full of concern.

She just wanted to make him a meal to appease him, and then get him to move past the misunderstanding about her being unwilling to see him and going to privately meet Wen Shi Lan.

But she didn't expect this to happen!

If Huo Shao Ting ate something bad, his grandmother had just gone out. How could his mother-in-law spare her?

Just the young aunt's violent temper was already too much for her!

"I'm fine." Seeing her so careful and humble, Huo Shao Ting's heart was suddenly pierced as if by a needle.

She was his officially recognized and state approved wife brought home. He thought the Huo family could provide her food and shelter, and the relationship between them could be a proper husband and wife.

Just now he had been wondering what exactly made her seem so uneasy.

Now he knew the reason.

He put down his chopsticks and stood up, pulling Rong Dai behind him. He looked down at Huo Mei Shu condescendingly, his gaze sharp.

"Huo Mei Shu, Rong Dai is your eldest sister-in-law. She is the wife I married and brought home. She is Huo Shao Ting's wife. The food, clothing, and belongings in this family are all earned by me. If you are not satisfied, you can get out of this family!"

"I don't care who indulges your young miss temper. You like yelling at others and I won't interfere since you're an adult now and that's your freedom."

"But this is my wife. I'm asking you to show some respect! If I hear again that you have yelled at my wife, don't bother coming back to this family. Go live wherever you like, but there won't be a place for you here!"

"Have I made myself clear enough?"

Huo Shao Ting's attitude was firm, his tone authoritative and cold.

Not only was Huo Mei Shu shocked, even Rong Dai was frightened.

What astonished Huo Mei Shu was that although her elder brother was often not at home, she knew this family was supported by him. So she deeply respected her elder brother.

Therefore, after he got married, she also gave Rong Dai that respect.

It was a pity Rong Dai was unappreciative, especially seeing Rong Dai's indifference towards her elder brother. It made her furious!

Her elder brother was so outstanding. What kind of woman could he not marry? What right did she have to be so indifferent to him?

But now the one in the wrong was this woman. She was worried about her elder brother's health. Why was he criticizing her?

Huo Mei Shu couldn't understand it and felt wronged. Her eyes instantly turned red.

If Rong Dai treated her elder brother well, it would be fine.

But she clearly didn't treat him well. Yet she couldn't say a thing?

Rong Dai was also extremely shocked!

Huo Shao Ting was very strange tonight. How could he say those words?

They clearly didn't have feelings for each other. How could he suddenly defend her like this?

But before she could figure out this problem, seeing Huo Mei Shu's aggrieved appearance, she was greatly alarmed. This was bad!

She was trying every means to gain the favor of the young aunt and mother-in-law. But his violent defense immediately shattered her efforts.

"Mei Shu, don't listen to your elder brother. He is just angry at me today and said confused things. Don't take it to heart. I won't make noodles next time. Thank you for the reminder."

Rong Dai hurriedly tried to remedy the situation, but she didn't even believe her own words.

When Huo Shao Ting said those words just now, his attitude was so overbearing.

If Huo Mei Shu really fell out with Huo Shao Ting over such a small matter, or even moved out, his mother-in-law would definitely kill her!

"Shao Ting, don't speak so harshly. Mei Shu was just worried about your health. I didn't know you couldn't eat flour foods either. She meant well."

After appeasing Huo Mei Shu, she hurriedly explained to Huo Shao Ting.

But after saying these two things, she suddenly felt anger coming at her from both sides!

"Elder brother, have you gone crazy? For her sake, you would actually drive away your own younger sister? I've always respected you. Since your marriage, in what way have I not respected this woman?"

Huo Mei Shu looked at Rong Dai with utmost loathing, her gaze confronting Huo Shao Ting's. She couldn't help complaining tearfully.

"This woman is shameless. If she didn't want to marry back then, she shouldn't have married! Does our Huo family need to beg her? You accuse me of not respecting her enough?"

"Look at how she acts. Mom bought her bird's nest, cordyceps, second brother brought her all kinds of local specialty gifts, I bought her high-end luxury clothes and skincare products. Did she appreciate any of it?"

Huo Mei Shu also had an impatient personality. Especially with this resentment pent up for so long, she erupted on the spot!

"What did she do instead? She turned around and sold all these things! She walks around frowning all day, only smiling when she sees Grandma. Do we owe her?"

"You're not home often, but I am. I know clearly! She's made mom so angry she can't eat. In what way have we wronged her? She doesn't know you're allergic to flour foods. Is she qualified to be your wife? On what basis are you berating me?!"

Huo Mei Shu felt wronged and cried out.

Hearing Huo Mei Shu's accusations, Rong Dai's heart went completely cold.

She really didn't expect the original host's behavior in the Huo family to have been so terrible that she made a woman in her twenties cry. And there was so much pent up resentment!

She suddenly understood a bit why the original host died lonesome in the hospital without anyone by her side.

The original host dying was a relief.

But this made things difficult for her. She only inherited scattered fragments of the original host's memories. She didn't know or understand many things.

If she had known the original host acted so outrageously, she would have rather woken up and immediately smashed her own head, going back to the cold palace.
