Chapter 279: The Villain’s Tool Aunt (25)
A month later, the Buddhist family held a full-month banquet for the newborn. Huo Shichu's health had long recovered. On the day of the banquet, he appeared in high spirits holding the Buddha Mingyuan, attracting a lot of attention.
She was good-looking to begin with, and now that she had given birth to a child, she looked even more mature, like a blooming flower, making the young women attending the banquet jealous.
"What's wrong with this Huo Shichu? Shouldn't she be bloated and fat and turn into a yellow-faced woman after giving birth to a child? Why does she look like a vixen with higher cultivation? Could she have really absorbed the essence of Fo Baijian?" Bai Su's good sister Miss Zhou said jealously, holding a wine glass and looking at the smiling Huo Shichu.
Bai Su was almost in despair now. Before, she had thought that Huo Shichu and Fo Baijian's marriage would not last long and that she still had a chance... But now, looking at Fo Baijian, who was gazing at Huo Shichu and the child with eyes full of tenderness, the love in his eyes was so obvious that Bai Su could not convince herself.
But she was still unwilling and jealous. After hearing what her best sister said, she couldn't help but say sarcastically, "She is very advanced in Taoism and has the means to tie Fo Baijian down with a child a long time ago. What a pity that she only gave birth to a daughter!"
Miss Zhou sneered and said, "I heard that she had a falling out with her family, so she has to hurry up and grab Fu Baijian. She held a full-month banquet today, and next year, we can attend the full-month banquet for her second child, right?" This was a satire on the fact that Huo Shichu could only rely on having children to maintain his position.
"She obviously comes from a good family, but she insists on being a breeding machine like those lower-class women. She really brings shame to us women. No wonder the Huo family acted as if they didn't know even though she married into a Buddhist family. They obviously knew that she was pregnant before she was, which is a disgrace to their ancestors." Bai Su said sarcastically, glaring fiercely at the smiling Huo Shichu in the distance. Ever since her failure with Fo Baijian, her character has become more and more mean. She is too lazy to hide her true nature in front of her familiar sisters.
Huo Shichu felt a malicious gaze towards him, and instantly looked up and saw that it was Bai Su. He couldn't help but frowned. This young lady still hadn't given up on Fo Bojian? If she dared to do anything out of line, he would have to teach her a lesson. Those who coveted her would have to pay the price.
Bai Su suddenly met Huo Shichu's gaze and was startled. Obviously, she didn't expect to be looking into her eyes, so she couldn't help feeling guilty and hurriedly shifted her gaze.
Huo Shichu chuckled. This Miss Bai really had the intention of stealing but not the courage.
With Buddha's sincere wish, Mr. Fo announced on the stage that she was the third generation descendant of the Buddha family and would receive 5% of the shares of the Buddha Group.
This decision shocked everyone in the audience instantly. Everyone was surprised by Mr. Fo's generosity. Although 5% of the shares may seem small, the Fo Group is a giant. Even if it is only one thousandth of the shares, the annual dividend is calculated in eight figures, not to mention 5%. This means that even if little Fo Mingyuan can't even turn over now, her net worth has exceeded nine figures.
The audience was talking about this. Some people envied this baby who was only one month old and was so good at reincarnation. At such a young age, she was already at the end of others' lives. Some people thought that Mr. Fo was too stupid. This child was just a granddaughter. Sooner or later, she would belong to someone else's family. Wouldn't it be a big loss to give her shares? Others were jealous of Huo Shichu. The child she gave birth to was so valued. She would definitely be honored by her son. I don't know how many noble ladies were jealous of her.
But Huo Shichu didn't know all this. She didn't think it was a big deal that her daughter was given shares in the Fu Group. Even if Fu Mingyuan didn't have these shares, she would be able to inherit her property in the future and was destined to have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life.
Just as the picture of Fo Mingyuan was playing on the screen, a waiter suddenly walked in and looked around anxiously until he saw Huo Shichu. He hurried over and whispered to Huo Shichu, "Madam, there is an old lady and a young man outside the hotel. They say they are your mother and nephew. They want to come in to attend your daughter's full moon banquet, but they don't have an invitation. Do you want to invite them in?"
When Huo Shichu heard this, his face turned cold and he said, "No need. If they don't have an invitation, they are not my guests. I refuse to let them in. You go out and ask them to leave. If they refuse, ask the security guards to take them away. They are very proud and will definitely not dare to be thrown out by the security guards in disgrace."
After hearing her reply, the waiter naturally knew how to treat the Huo family. Although they were considered to have some status, who made them start to decline? Moreover, this hotel was still under the control of the Fu family, so they were not afraid of the Huo family.
"Mrs. Huo, Young Master Huo, I'm sorry, our young mistress said that you are not the guests she invited, so she can't let you in. Please leave." The waiter said politely.
"What did you say? That unfilial daughter actually dared to do this to me?" Mother Huo's face became ferocious, and she gritted her teeth and said that she and Huo Zheng chose to hold the full moon banquet at the Buddhist family and came uninvited at this time just to force Huo Shichu to reconcile with her in front of everyone, so that she could "let it be" and repair her relationship with Huo Shichu later, and thus get on the Buddhist family...
But she never expected that she had miscalculated again. Huo Shichu was so heartless that she dared not let herself in even when she was at the door! Wasn't she afraid that others would say she was cold and heartless, unfilial and unfraternal?
"Sir, my grandma and I wanted to come and see us because we heard that my little cousin was having a full-month banquet here. Grandma misses her granddaughter too. It's just that there was some misunderstanding between my aunt and grandma, and she hasn't gotten over it yet, so she said this. But there's no overnight grudge between mother and daughter, and they will always make up in the future. Now maybe my aunt is just hard on the outside but soft on the inside. We just need to give her a way out, and she will definitely forgive us... So, can you let us in quietly? No need to tell my aunt..." Huo Zheng is worthy of being the future male protagonist with a lot of ink in his belly. He tells lies one after another, and they sound like the truth.
However, the waiter was a very principled person, and Huo Shichu was very firm in his attitude of not wanting to let the two people in. He did not think that the young lady following the two of them was just a misunderstanding, and he was just doing what he was told. So no matter how eloquent Huo Zheng was, he did not believe it, and still resolutely asked Huo's mother and Huo Zheng to leave.
Mother Huo was so angry that she was about to start cursing when several tall and strong security guards came up to her and looked at her fiercely, as if waiting for her to do something wrong so that they could drag her away immediately.
How could Mother Huo stay when being stared at like that? She had lived a life of luxury all her life, but every time she met Huo Shichu, she was in a mess. Huo Shichu was her nemesis!
In order to save her own face, Huo's mother could not do anything like throwing a tantrum in front of the hotel entrance, so she could only return to her car with Huo Zheng in anger.
