Transmigrating: I Married the Male Protagonist’s Uncle

Chapter 856: Too Generous

But Huo Xuanzhou would not let her off so easily. Seizing the opportunity, he would torment her to death. “Really? Did he get a stomach ache just because she was going to see the king?”

Huo Feifei’s face flushed with indignance as she looked at him angrily. “Brother Zhou, what do you mean by that? Are you doubting Edward’s capability and identity?”

Huo Xuanzhou smiled. “I never said that. Why are you so agitated? It’s fine if you guys don’t want to go. What does this have to do with me?”

Hey! She was anxious. His guess was right. This Edward? Who knew where this swindler had come from? He was lying to that fool Huo Feifei!

In the past, on account of the fact that they were siblings, although he hated her, he would not have watched as she was being deceived.

Now, she was stupid, foolish, and evil. She did not have the right to be warned by him. When she was cheated of money and sex later, she would cry!

Besides, Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt were smart people. He did not believe that the two of them had not noticed anything. If her own parents did not care, why would he care?

“Edward is very familiar with King William. They have a good relationship,” Huo Feifei emphasized her words and held her head high. “We just missed each other. Edward said that there are too many people today. Even if we go over, we won’t be able to talk. He’ll bring me over to visit tomorrow.”

“In that case, congratulations, Little Sister Feifei,” Huo Xuanzhou smiled carelessly. He thought, You’re quite proud. It’s as though you can bring glory to the family by making a visit. Sheng Sheng and Sixth Uncle’s family are there now, but they’re not as proud as you.

“Father, Mother, Edward said he wants to treat the king to a meal alone. You two should go too.” After saying that, Huo Feifei acted like a proud swan. “Grandpa, Grandma, Uncle, Auntie, if you have time, you can come too.”

Everyone gave her face and nodded in agreement. However, when they saw her current behavior, they all felt that the Old Master had done the right thing. Thankfully, he had not officially adopted her under the Huo Family’s name and included her name in the genealogical record. The Xiao Family was born petty to their bones and had limited vision. She was a hopeless cause.

“You young people can go by yourselves. What can we do there?” Su Xiyin was too embarrassed to say anything about her either. It didn’t make sense for an elder to go meet a junior.

Although Rong Ying was the queen now and had a high and respected status, she was just a junior whom they doted on in their eyes.

“That’s right. How can an elder meet a junior personally?” Jiang Meiyun smiled and teased.

Look at this. Although this daughter had been raised in the Huo Family since she was young, the saying that a child’s temperament and character followed that of whoever raised her was not wrong at all. She was like Fourth Brother’s family. She spoke and did things in a petty manner. Unpresentable!

Although that young girl Sheng Sheng had grown up in the countryside, she was very generous and graceful when she spoke or did things. There was nothing to criticize about her temperament either. She was presentable and likable.

She did not know if it was because her son kept harping on about how good she was by her ear, but when she compared Sheng Sheng to Huo Feifei, she actually liked that girl better.

“Eldest Aunt is right,” Huo Feifei had a smile on her face. However, upon hearing her words, her eyes changed again and again.

Humph, what was there to be proud of? Did they not care even though she was sending out invitations? Had any of them seen a king before? Did they know what a true noblewoman’s life was like?

Cao Yunxian, who was usually the closest to Xiao Hui, could barely continue watching Huo Feifei anymore too. Had she underestimated the Huo Family’s power and status?

So what if he was the king? Even when the president saw the Old Master, he had to call him Uncle respectfully!

Did she really think that those foreign mascots, with a symbolic status for their citizens, were that impressive?

Rong Ying was different. No matter what, although the king of Country Y did not have much power, he was a king worshipped by everyone. He possessed the highest honor, and even the president had to show him some respect. No matter which foreign country he visited, he would always receive a higher level of deferential treatment than the president.

Besides, her family had money. Could ordinary people compare to her?

“Sister-in-law, that’s not right. What do you mean by an elder meeting a junior? It’s just a meal together. Why are you so particular?” Xiao Hui was unhappy when she heard her words.

Jiang Meiyun was about to retort.

But Huo Xiao frowned and interrupted her with a displeased expression. “Don’t talk while eating. Who’s talking? Don’t eat at the table in the future.”

As soon as he finished speaking, those who wanted to speak and those who were speaking shut up and started eating obediently.

Huo Feifei looked at the table full of people. Not many of them were enthusiastic about her and Edward. She felt even angrier.

Great!

All of them looked down on her. When she got married and became a princess consort, she would live the most comfortable life in the world every day. She would be reported by the world’s most famous media every day. She would definitely broaden their horizons and shut their mouths obediently.

The sons and daughters-in-law of the Huo Family really did not take Huo Feifei and Prince Edward seriously.

At this moment, they were more worried about whether Ling Sheng would fight them for the Huo Family’s assets and get involved in this property dispute, taking away the money that originally belonged to them.

As for Ling Sheng returning to the Huo Family and acknowledging her roots and ancestors, as long as the Old Master was happy, everything would be fine. There was only one thing. Sixth Brother had said that he did not want a share of the family’s assets.

If his daughter wanted it in the future, it would be equivalent to him wanting it. This was their bottom line. If the Sixth Family touched it, they could not blame them for being ruthless.

When Ling Sheng and the others returned from the Rong Family, it was already afternoon. It was very lively there, but the elders were the ones talking. She did not speak much.

However, Xiaoqi was very excited. He had seen Nao Nao’s rafflesia and was watching the videos and photos he had taken along the way.

Ling Sheng pinched her son’s tender face and looked at his sparkling eyes. “Does it look that pretty? It stinks!”

She had initially thought that Nao Nao was joking. Who knew that he would really manage to get a huge rafflesia? He got it along with the vegetation growing near the flower. Dozens of botanists had also come along to take care of that flower.

The flower had yet to bloom; it was only a bud. It was said that under stringent cultivation, it would still take more than half a month before it would bloom. The botanists who had brought it would wait until the flower bloomed before returning to their country.

This big fanfare was indeed from the royal family. They were too generous. Just because the child liked it, they had really brought it over. How admirable.

“Mommy, it’s really pretty.” Xiaoqi even found a few videos of the rafflesia and said excitedly, “Little Uncle said he would tell me when it’s about to open up. Mommy, can you bring me over to view it then?”

The flowers had yet to bloom. By the time they did, Mommy would have to go to work and would not stay at home with him every day. Just the thought of it made him a little sad.

However, Mommy was going to earn money to support him now. When he grew up in the future, Mommy would not have to work anymore. He would be the one earning money to support Mommy instead.
