Chapter 318: Grudge
As Huo Jinzhi finished speaking, Su Yunya and the others hurried back.
"Good boy, don't be afraid. As long as our family is together, there will be no trouble." After all, Su Yunya had accompanied her husband to many places, so she did have some political awareness.
When Chen Zhu looked up, she saw so many people surrounding her to comfort her.
Even someone with her personality felt a little uncomfortable at this moment.
But her emotions surged up in waves, and she was out of control. She could only look at them with guilt in her eyes and wipe away her tears hastily.
"I didn't want this to happen. I'm sorry." Chen Zhuyi's voice was nasal, and the guilt in his tone could not be concealed.
Su Yunya's heart was about to melt.
How could there be such a soft, well-behaved and obedient little girl in this world? They all wanted to remember her kindness, but she felt guilty first.
"We were not at home during this period, and you supported this family very well by yourself. It was our fault that we did not do well and made you suffer." Huo Jinzhi said with heartache. It took them a lot of effort to finally calm Chen Zhuyi down.
After stopping crying, Chen Zhuyi wished he could dig a hole and bury himself in it.
"We are a family, and it's only natural for us to tolerate each other. My dear child, you can be so relaxed, which actually means you acknowledge us."
Su Yunya smiled and took the initiative to pull her. Chen Zhuyi planned to go out together and see if there was anything he could buy.
The more caring the child is, the more indebted the parents will feel. They would like to give everything they have to Chen Zhuyi.
The whole family took the initiative to go out shopping and brought back a lot of things. Most of them were bought for Chen Zhuyi, and only a small part was for the children.
At Shen Zhuyi's strong request, he also bought some for the people at home.
It was only at this moment that Mrs. Wen and Mrs. Cai were willing to show their heads. There was only deep worry and caution in their eyes, as they were afraid that they would be kicked out.
Because of her thoughtful actions over the past few days, Mrs. Wen became a little bolder: "Old Huo, I don't ask you for much, but what about your descendants who are suffering now?"
"They're all clueless fools, which is why I have to come here with such audacity. I know you might find this difficult, but... we old folks have lived for most of our lives, and we're nothing more than disciples and grandchildren, aren't we?"
After she finished speaking, Mrs. Wen's knees softened and she knelt directly in front of him. Her solemn look scared the old man.
Huo Qiyun spoke quickly, already with a hint of warning in his voice: "You'd better not do these messy little tricks. If someone really sees you, you'll probably get into trouble!"
"The feudal dynasty was destroyed long ago. Now the people are the masters of their own destiny. No one is allowed to kneel down at every turn."
After being scolded, Mrs. Wen reluctantly stood up, and her expression seemed to be a little aggrieved.
But no one looked at her, and no one spoiled her.
The Huo family is currently in the spotlight. Even if they can't expect this group of people to help them accomplish anything, they should at least ensure that they don't hold them back.
They probably want to even take off the Huo family’s pants!
"If there's anything, let's talk about it when we get home. What's the point of standing outside now?"
Old Master Huo waved his hand and made the final decision.
Mrs. Cai was dragged along by the team. When she reached the end, she rubbed the corner of her clothes with her fingers. Her eyes were full of sorrow and she didn't dare to look them in the eye.
"I heard... that during the time we were away from home, someone took charge of the Huo family and was quite powerful, wasn't he?" As Mr. Huo entered the room, the expression on his face changed completely, giving people an inexplicable feeling of oppression.
Although they cannot guarantee to give Chen Zhuyi the best of everything, if he does not even have the right to be the head of his own family, then there is no need for them to find a daughter-in-law!
Mrs. Cai didn't dare to breathe, and pushed Mrs. Wen forward, looking for a scapegoat.
She shrank back, this cuckold thing was done extremely skillfully.
Mrs. Wen also knew that they had done something wrong and had to learn a lesson, so she did not hide or avoid it, but stood upright with her chest held high.
"We wanted to take advantage of the Huo family from the beginning, and we had some bad intentions, so no matter what you say, I accept the punishment."
This frank attitude actually made people feel more satisfied. The old man nodded slowly. He did not make any promises, but just stared quietly with dark eyes.
"I... I also know that I was wrong. I dare not have any bad thoughts. I will definitely treat her well in the future." Mrs. Cai trembled and expressed her opinion quickly, fearing that if she spoke too slowly, all these things would fall on him alone.
Chen Zhuyi sat there with his eyelids drooping, showing no intention of asking for mercy, and was also weighing things in his mind.
This is actually a good opportunity. If Zhaodi is asked at this moment, the old lady will definitely not dare to say a word.
"We can't do anything about the Cai family's affairs, but your granddaughter is a rare blessing to be favored by my child."
"As long as you issue a letter of severance, promising not to bother her in the future, and let her stay with us to atone for her sins, then this matter can be put to rest."
Mr. Huo raised his eyelids and spoke indifferently.
The first thing he did after he came back was to ask someone about the situation at home. While he was shopping just now, he already knew everything that had happened at home during this period.
The more he understood Chen Zhuyi, the more he naturally liked her methods.
Girls should be a little ruthless in order to accomplish things. If they are too soft, others will just step on them and bully them.
Chen Zhuyi handled this matter very well.
Mrs. Cai's eyes widened suddenly, with a bitter look in her eyes: "Grandpa, that child is my granddaughter after all. What you did is..."
Before she could finish her complaint, she felt Mr. Huo's cold gaze.
A man who has been fighting on the battlefield for many years, even though he has retired now, still has a fierce aura that is unmatched by ordinary women.
Mrs. Cai knew clearly about the predicament she was in, but she could only sigh inwardly and say that she was unlucky, and accepted the fact that she lost both her wife and her army.
Since the old man wants to bring people to his side, they will naturally be able to take advantage of him in the future!
Doesn’t that wild girl Zhaodi only listen to her?
Seeing the smug look on Mrs. Cai's face, Chen Zhu lowered his eyes and sneered, but did not expose her.
If Zhaodi was an ambitious girl, she would handle these things on her own. She would provide help, but would never drag Zhaodi along and force her to move forward.
To cut off the past, you have to do it yourself to make it more memorable. If others interfere too much, it may lead to resentment!
