When she saw Mrs. Huo again, Lu Qingqing was already a mother, and her understanding of her mother deepened.
"Mom!" Lu Qingqing threw herself into Mrs. Huo's arms, "Mom, thank you today."
Mrs. Huo went to the press conference today to relieve Lu Qingqing, allowing her to enjoy the deep maternal love for the first time in her life.
"Silly girl, with mom here, I won't let you be wronged anymore." Mrs. Huo glanced at Sheng Mingxi standing at the door and walked over.
"Hello, Mrs. Huo." Sheng Mingxi greeted.
"I heard that you took my granddaughter away?" Mrs. Huo asked.
Sheng Mingxi nodded.
"The child can't live without his mother. You'd better send the child to Huo's house. I can help you take care of the child."
Sheng Mingxi's face darkened slightly, wondering what the mother-in-law meant?
During the stalemate, Lu Qingqing spoke.
"Mom, I think the child is safer with her father than with the Huo family."
Lu Qingqing thought of the time when she and Shasha were poisoned when they were children. She felt that the Huo family was really not as safe as Sheng Mingxi's place.
However, she called Sheng Mingxi after her child's father, which surprised both Mrs. Huo and Sheng Mingxi.
Lu Qingqing obviously recognized Sheng Mingxi's identity in front of Mrs. Huo, and was willing to leave the child to him, which showed a great deal of trust in him.
Sheng Mingxi was extremely excited.
Lu Qingqing was giving him a chance.
Mrs. Huo frowned. Originally, she was quite optimistic about Sheng Mingxi, especially since he helped her a lot this time.
But when she heard Huo Xun say that Sheng Mingxi actually gave up on Lu Qingqing at a critical moment, which almost made her unable to see her daughter, she suddenly felt alienated.
But seeing Lu Qingqing's attitude towards Sheng Mingxi, it seemed that he wanted to give him another chance for the sake of his children.
Since this was the case, she didn't want to interfere too much. After all, in matters like marriage, one still had to respect personal choices.
"Okay, can you take the child home to stay for a few days? Mom wants to see my granddaughter."
Lu Qingqing glanced at Sheng Mingxi.
When it came to this, Sheng Mingxi had no choice but to agree, but he said that he wanted the two nannies he found to follow him, and he was worried about others.
In this way, Lu Qingqing followed Mrs. Huo back to Huo's house that night. Sheng Mingxi agreed to send the child there in person the next morning.
We returned to the Huo family just in time for dinner. In addition to the eldest brother Huo Xuancheng, father Huo Xun, second brother, and third brother were all there.
Mrs. Huo pulled Lu Qingqing to the restaurant and asked her to sit next to her.
The dining table is rectangular. Huo Xun and Mrs. Huo sit side by side on the main seat. To Huo Xun's right is his second brother Huo Chengyi, and to Mrs. Huo's left are Lu Qingqing and Huo Yifei.
Huo Xun is very happy today, his daughter is back home.
Huo Chengyi pushed up his glasses, saw his mother and sister, and suddenly felt that the family was complete again.
"It would be great if Fei Fei was here." Mrs. Huo thought of Huo Fei Fei at this moment.
"Next month is my dad's fifty-fifth birthday. Feifei said he would rush back to celebrate my birthday," Huo Yifei said.
Mrs. Huo nodded, "Then our family is all here."
As soon as he finished speaking, a little girl about five years old ran in and shouted in a sweet voice: "Grandpa, grandma, we are back."
Behind her followed a young woman in her twenties, Huo Xuancheng's wife Wu Yujiao, who was five or six months pregnant with her second child.
As soon as she came in, she saw Lu Qingqing.
She was startled by the face that looked like Huo Shasha's, "Are you Qingqing?"
Wu Yujiao had just returned from vacation abroad, but she had already heard about Lu Qingqing, but she didn't expect to meet him so soon.
"Hello, sister-in-law." Lu Qingqing stood up and greeted politely.
However, Huo Chengyi and Huo Yifei didn't even look at her, and Mrs. Huo and Huo Xun also had a cold attitude towards her.
Mrs. Huo asked the servant to add two pairs of bowls and chopsticks.
Wu Yujiao hurriedly said: "Mom, we have eaten, no need."
At this time, the little girl Huo Meiyi stopped, "Mom, when will we eat? I'm still hungry."
Wu Yujiao's face suddenly turned red.
Lu Qingqing quickly called Meiyi over and placed a children's chair between her and Huo Yifei.
Wu Yujiao said that she was tired and would go back to her room first.
Lu Qingqing felt that this sister-in-law was a bit unwelcome to the Huo family, but she couldn't ask in this situation, so she could only suppress the doubts in her heart.
Xiao Meiyi is very picky about food and won't eat this or that.
No matter how hard Lu Qingqing tried to persuade him, he even said that the chef at home was not as good as the food cooked outside.
Hearing this, Huo Xun was very angry.
"If you think the food outside is delicious, don't come back."
The little girl was so frightened by Huo Xun's cold face that she burst into tears.
Huo Xuancheng happened to be back at this time and walked into the restaurant when he heard the crying.
The little girl jumped down from the chair and threw herself into Huo Xuancheng's arms.
"Dad, grandpa yelled at me." the little girl said aggrievedly.
"Why did grandpa yell at you?" Huo Xuancheng seemed to have drunk wine, his face was a little red.
"Because I'm picky about food." The little girl said confidently.
As soon as she finished speaking, the little girl was slapped hard on the face, "How dare you complain to your grandfather about being a picky eater? Is this how your mother taught you?"
The little girl was knocked to the ground and cried even harder.
Huo Chengyi couldn't stand it anymore and helped Huo Meiyi up, "Brother, she is still a child."
"Children should be taught well. After being out for a few days, I have forgotten all the rules at home!"
"Okay, your sister comes home for dinner for the first time. You have to teach yourself to go back to the house and don't be embarrassed here." Huo Xun said displeased.
Huo Xuancheng saw Lu Qingqing at this time and said to her: "After dinner later, come to me in the study."
After saying that, Huo Xuancheng left the restaurant, and the little girl was picked up by the servant and sent upstairs.
Wu Yujiao was standing on the stairs. She looked at Huo Xuancheng's cold back, and her heart ached like needles.
After all the trouble just now, this dinner was very depressing.
After the meal, Huo Chengyi and Huo Yifei both left. Except for weekends, they rarely came back. No wonder Mrs. Huo wanted to let Lu Qingqing come back to live with her. There was no one in Ruoda's house to even talk to her.
.
Mrs. Huo accompanied Lu Qingqing to the study, where Huo Xuancheng was waiting for her.
Huo Xuancheng was a little unhappy when he saw Mrs. Huo coming.
"Mom, I want to talk to my sister alone."
"Then don't lose your temper with your sister. If you have anything to say, say it carefully, otherwise I won't be able to spare you." Mrs. Huo warned.
"Mom, don't worry, I'll just have a few words with my sister."
After receiving Huo Xuancheng's guarantee, Mrs. Huo went out with peace of mind.
"Brother, if you have anything to say, just say it." Lu Qingqing said.
"Qingqing, brother wants to know what you think about your marriage to the Gong family?"
"I don't want to marry Gong Xu, it's that simple." Lu Qingqing made it clear.
"Is it because he has too many scandals?"
"That's not entirely true. I always feel that he is too narrow-minded and too tiring to deal with." Lu Qingqing said what was in his heart.
Huo Xuancheng smiled, "Isn't your Sheng Mingxi very thoughtful?"
"Although Sheng Mingxi has many intentions, he doesn't count me out, so Gong Xu can't compare with him."
"So, you still can't let go of Sheng Mingxi?" Huo Xuancheng frowned, "Don't forget, he is the one who once abandoned you."
Lu Qingqing's body trembled slightly.
"Brother is right, but no one can make mistakes without being a sage. I would rather gamble on Sheng Mingxi again than marry Gong Xu."
