What to Do? Forced to be the Stepmother of a Jerky Kid

A modern worker with consistently bad luck - Luo Chaoyan, was blown into a strange ancient time by a typhoon.

Her father is a fifth-rank petty official, and her mother is the daughter of a we...

Chapter 196

That day, Luo Chaoyan felt a little stuffy in her chest, so she went to the yard to relax.

The several maple trees planted in the courtyard were transplanted from the maple forest in Lianzhuang.

Huo Jin walked hurriedly over and saw her sitting comfortably under the maple tree. The fragmented sunlight passed through the leaves and sprinkled on her fair face, making her look like a painting of beauty.

"Ayan!" he called softly.

Luo Chaoyan turned her head to look at him and smiled at him, "Husband."

Huo Jin helped her up and asked with concern: "I heard from Fengli that you were not feeling well?"

"No, I just feel a tightness in my chest." Luo Chaoyan said.

Huo Jin frowned and said, "Let's let the doctor take a look."

Luo Chaoyan didn't want to make him worry, so she nodded.

Huo Jin said: "Now the court situation has stabilized. I told my father that we will go to Xuanzhou after the Mid-Autumn Festival."

Luo Chaoyan was stunned for a moment, then asked happily: "Really?"

Seeing her clear eyes, Huo Jin smiled and nodded.

Luo Chaoyan blinked and said, "You won't change your mind this time, right?"

Huo Jin said: "No."

Luo Chaoyan was so excited that she raised her hands to his neck, kissed his cheek, and said with a smile: "Husband, you are so great."

Huo Rui and Huo An, who were not far away, saw the intimacy between the couple and quickly raised their hands to cover their eyes.

Huo Rui asked: "Did we come at the wrong time?"

Huo An nodded, "It seems so." Then he said with some disdain, "Father is an adult but he still likes to stick to mother."

Huo Rui said: "That's called a loving couple."

Seeing that his father and mother were still hugging each other and ignoring them, Huo An immediately hugged Huo Rui with some disappointment and said, "Brother, from now on, it will be just the two of us who will depend on each other."

Huo Rui put his hand on his head and said, "What are you doing?"

"By the way, brother, do you think father and mother are a good match?" Huo An asked.

Huo Rui raised his eyebrows and said, "You are talking nonsense." His father is so outstanding, there is no woman who is not worthy of him.

Huo An stretched out his index finger and shook it, and said seriously: "Brother, you can't learn from father."

"Although my father is good-looking and has excellent character and academic performance, he has a cold personality and likes to be busy with official duties. If my mother hadn't been able to have fun on her own, she might have disliked him."

Huo Rui looked at him in surprise and said, "Where did you get such a perverted idea from?"

Huo An said: "Luo's grandfather said that when he chooses a son-in-law, he will only look for someone who is considerate and docile. If you hadn't tricked him, father and mother might not have been destined to be together."

Huo Rui choked, but after thinking about it, it seemed to be true? !

"What are you mumbling about?"

Luo Chaoyan and Huo Jin walked over and saw the two brothers chattering about something.

Huo Rui and Huo An saw Huo Jin's cold eyes sweeping over them, and they quickly waved their hands and said, "Nothing."

Luo Chaoyan smiled and said, "Your father said that we might go to Xuanzhou in the spring."

Huo Rui and Huo An's faces were filled with joy when they heard this.

Huo An hugged Huo Jin's body, looked up at him, and said with a flattering face, "Father, you are the most considerate and best father."

Huo Rui's face twitched when he heard this. Who just told him not to imitate his father? But he was quite happy to be able to travel far away.

Huo An finished his good act, then took Luo Chaoyan's hand and said, "Mom, let's go and see what we need to pack."

Huo Rui looked at his father beside him and then chose to follow.

Huo Jin looked at the backs of the mother and her two children with some helplessness. It was only summer now and there was still more than a month away from early autumn.

Yizhou

Su's House

Su Yi had just returned from the government office when he saw his wife still standing with a bow and arrow in hand. He was so scared that he quickly stepped forward to stop her and said, "Ashan, no!"

Yin Miaoshan said unhappily: "What do you mean by no? I'm almost bored to death." In the past, Su Qian was with her in the mansion, or she would go out for a walk by herself. But since she became pregnant, she has been restrained by this guy, saying this and that, and she is almost annoyed to death.

Su Yi took the arrow from her hand, put his arm around her waist, and said, "Ashan, be good. The doctor said that the first three months are very important. For the sake of the child, you have to bear with it for a while."

Upon hearing this, Yin Miaoshan pinched his waist in annoyance and said, "It's all your fault." They had clearly agreed not to have a baby so soon, but who knew that this guy would actually go against her will and change her aversion menu.

Su Yi hurriedly coaxed her, "Yes, it's my fault. I'll let you hit me and punish me, but don't get sick from anger. The doctor said that pregnant women should keep a happy mood." It's not his fault for pretending to obey. If he hadn't trapped her, maybe she would have gone out to make a living with that silly sister. Then what would be the difference between him, a married man, and a widower?

Chunyue and Xiayu were accustomed to the bickering between their daughter and her husband. Such scenes had been happening frequently since their daughter became pregnant.

Su Yi helped her sit on a chair nearby and said, "Huo Jin and his family will be going to Xuanzhou soon, and they will pass by here."

Yin Miaoshan was stunned and asked in surprise, "My cousin is coming?"

Su Yi nodded, "Huo Jin wrote me a letter a few days ago, saying that he would leave after the Mid-Autumn Festival."

"That's great!" Yin Miaoshan said. She hasn't seen her cousin for a long time. Although they usually exchange letters, she still misses her very much.

Huo Family Academy

Huo Yu saw Huo Rui humming a little tune and walked in. He raised his eyebrows and looked at him and said, "Why, you are in such a good mood so early in the morning, could it be that your mother promised to take you out to play somewhere?"

Huo Ze and Huo Shun immediately looked at him expectantly.

Huo Rui raised his chin and said, "You can say yes or no."

Huo Shun pulled his sleeve and said anxiously, "Boss, wherever Madam Huo wants to take you, don't abandon us."

"I can't take you with me." Huo Rui said, "After the Mid-Autumn Festival, our family will go to Xuanzhou."

Huo Yu smiled and said, "Are you so sure that you can go this time?"

Huo Rui glared at him and said, "Don't be such a phoenix."

Huo Yu shrugged and said, "The mysteries of this world are endless, and plans can never keep up with the changes."

Huo Rui raised his hand and touched his chin to look at him, then said, "Huo Yu, I suddenly have a way to prevent you from pursuing a career in government."

"What good ideas do you have?" Huo Yu asked.

Huo Rui said, "You are quite good at fortune-telling. I see those Taoist priests often use the stars and gossip to tell people's fortunes. You two have come to the same conclusion. Why don't you become a monk? Then you can study your fortune-telling in peace."

“Puff!”

"Ha ha!"

Huo Ze and Huo Shun couldn't help laughing.

Huo Yu blinked and said, "If you can help me resist my old mother, I would be happy to do so."

Huo Rui thought of Huo Yu's mother, who always wiped away tears, and suddenly felt a little scared. He waved his hand and said, "Then you should stay in the human world."
