Chapter 103 The old man gave her shares and she became the real Mrs. Huo
Shang Wanwan arrived home and felt uncomfortable when she thought about the weirdness between Chen Xin and Mrs. Chen.
Not long after she came back, Huo Dongming also came back.
The two went to the old house together.
Shang Wanwan bought some things that the old man liked and also brought some skin care products for Yuan Yi.
Yuan Yi's face darkened when she saw Shang Wanwan and Huo Dongming coming in hand in hand.
As usual, she did not accept the skin care products that Shang Wanwan gave her, and only let the maid take them.
As for where the final destination is, only Yuan Yi herself knows.
Shang Wanwan didn't care whether she accepted it or not. As the daughter-in-law of the Huo family, she had the intention, and it was her business whether she appreciated it or not.
The old man served food and asked Huo Dongming some questions that were not related to the itching during the meal. Yuan Yi accompanied him.
"Wanwan, do you have a good relationship with Chen Rongsheng and his wife?"
Shang Wanwan was eating in small bites, and when she saw that her father had changed the subject to her, she paused slightly.
"I can't say it's good. I work as a tutor in their home."
Yuan Yi curled the corners of her lips, revealing a subtle contempt.
"Did you recommend them yourself? They are now a big client of our Huo's. I heard that Mrs. Chen was a well-known female painter in the art world in her early years. Be careful not to teach their children badly with your mediocre skills.
You married into the Huo family and became their daughter-in-law, which means you are half of the family's reputation. You have to go out and show your face whenever you have time. Dongming will be deprived of your food and drink. Are you a tutor for others?"
Yuan Yi felt uncomfortable after hearing this.
This Shang Wanwan is indeed a woman from a humble family. Even after becoming the wife of a wealthy family, she couldn't get rid of her greedy and cheap habits.
It's ridiculous to leave Mrs. Huo alone and make a few bucks to make a fool of herself.
Huo Dongming tightened his grip on the chopsticks.
"Most of the credit for the smooth signing of this contract should be attributed to Wanwan. It was Mr. and Mrs. Chen who saw her talent and decided to get to know us better. Previously, most of their project bidders were large and powerful overseas companies."
After listening to his grandson's defense of his grandson's wife, and seeing the overwhelming news reports in recent days, the old man believed that what Huo Dongming said was true.
Now the target of Yuan Yi's words became very clear.
"They tell others to be more considerate of their appearance, but some people lower their status and do dirty things without any reflection, which is a good example to teach others a lesson."
The old man seldom scolds anyone, but once he does, he doesn't spare the person's face.
He was scolding Yuan Yi without naming her. There were four people at the table, so who else could he scold except her?
"If you don't waste your time on useless things, as the mistress of the house, the Huo family will be more prosperous. There are many widows in wealthy families, and some have taken over their husbands' family businesses and made them flourish. You only talk useless nonsense.
You are so fussy about eating. Eat if you can, and remember to shut your mouth if you can't. It's not easy for the family to get together for a meal, and you are the only one who has the mouth to speak, and everyone else has to listen?"
The old man got angry, and Shang Wanwan lowered her head and continued eating.
There is no ripple in my heart.
Yuan Yi was stunned and angry but she didn't dare to show it.
She didn't read the news, and even if she did, she would cross out any news related to Shang Wanwan.
Yuan Yi's ideal daughter-in-law is An Lan.
She didn't let anyone see her thoughts. The most hateful thing was that Huo Dongming was not her biological son after all.
If she was her own daughter, she would never let a woman of Shang Wanwan's status enter the Huo family.
The old man scolded his daughter-in-law, paused for a few seconds, and then suddenly spoke.
"Dong Ming, tomorrow you will give three points of my shares to Wan Wan."
When the old man said this, everyone was shocked.
Three percent of Huo’s shares?
"dad--"
Yuan Yi opposed it despite the risk of being criticized.
"Shang Wanwan has only been married for a few years and has not made any contribution to the family. Three percent of the shares, you——"
She was so anxious that she almost stood up and scolded the old man for being too old and confused. She had been in the Huo family for more than 20 years, working hard for the Huo family, and had 3% of the Huo family's shares. Every month, she had to wait for the old man to approve the account for household expenses.
Mrs. Huo's monthly pocket money is less than one million. Compared with the Huo family's assets of hundreds of billions, she is really not as good as those who do live broadcasts on mobile apps nowadays.
He could earn more by begging than by working in the Huo family.
"Sit down and eat. You have no right to interrupt in this family."
The old man didn't give Yuan Yi any face at all.
"You only know how to play useless tricks all day long. If I hadn't agreed to this marriage, Dongming wouldn't be as sensible as he is now."
Since Cong Shang Wanwan married into the Huo family, Huo Dongming's career has improved significantly. At first, the old man was worried about whether he could retire peacefully, so he sent An Lan to assist him. He didn't expect that this son born to another woman would be so promising.
When Yuan Yi was young, she was busy catching her husband's mistress. When she made herself infertile, her husband thought she was stupid.
It was he who took a fancy to Huo Dongming at that time and asked someone to advise Yuan Yi to keep him by her side to consolidate his position in the Huo family. She never thought that the so-called foresight was just a plan that the old man had thought of decades ago.
I just asked her to bring this lost grandson home, and she really thought she was smart.
The old man felt that the biggest mistake he had ever made in his life was letting his son marry a woman he didn't like, which led to his early death.
As for his only grandson, the old man no longer dared to ask the same of him as he did of his son.
As long as his grandson is healthy and the Huo family is prosperous, and he can have another grandson, he can marry any kind of woman he likes, and as long as she has no moral problems, the old man will not object too much.
Otherwise, even if he married a rich girl like Yuan Yi, he might end up dying young.
Thinking of his dead son, the old man felt sad.
He will not make the same mistake again.
Yuan Yi was really angry, but she didn't dare to leave the table.
Although she is the daughter of a wealthy family, she is a member of the Huo family after marrying into the family.
Her daily food, clothing and other expenses were all provided by the Huo family. The old man was still in charge of the Huo family. If she fell out with the old man, she would lose all her living expenses.
Shang Wanwan ate the rice in the bowl and waited until they finished arguing before whispering.
"Grandpa, I have enough money. You don't have to give me the shares of the Huo family."
Huo Dongming's black card was in her hand. Now she had no shortage of money. What she wanted was freedom and the freedom to breathe.
Going to the Chen family as a tutor was just a preparation for leaving in the future.
She won't stay in the Huo family for long.
"How can that be? What I gave you is not only you, but also my future great-grandson of the Huo family. You and Dong Ming should stop being so busy with your careers. Continuing the family line is the most important thing."
The old man returned to the topic.
He bought this share for the sake of An Shangwanwan's heart.
The old man knew that something bad had happened to the merchant recently. He was always strict with his children and would not show too much concern in words, nor would he make any sensational remarks.
Giving her shares is a way of supporting her to gain a foothold in the Huo family.
With these shares, Shang Wanwan is no longer just a vassal of the Huo family, but the real Mrs. Huo.
