"Now it's a new era, don't say those words to make me happy anymore."
The old lady was exceptionally solemn, and Huo Mei Shu could not help but restrain the smile on her face, feeling a little embarrassed looking at the family.
Rong Dai's heart was also puzzled, holding Huo Shao Ting's hand was a little sweaty.
She finally eased the relationship, she didn't want to ruin it like this.
She didn't expect her mother-in-law to treat her as intimately as her own daughter. As long as they could get along harmoniously with enough mutual respect, that would be fine.
But what the old lady did today was very likely to break the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship that she had finally eased.
Huo Shao Ting knew she was sensitive, and what kind of personality his own mother was, he knew very well.
This was his own wife. In this family, only he could rely on her, of course he had to not recognize his six relatives, and only protect his own wife.
As for other things, protect your wife first, and postpone other things later.
The old lady looked up at Huo Shao Jie: "Shao Jie, take out my will from the safe."
When they heard the word "will", the faces of the people in the living room changed.
Huo Shao Jie hesitated for a moment, then got up and took the old lady's will from the safe upstairs.
The paper of the will was very new, still exuding the smell of ink.
The TV in the living room was still broadcasting the gala, but the atmosphere was no longer as harmonious as before, but rather a little tense.
"Granny."
Huo Shao Jie handed the old lady the will.
The old lady put on her reading glasses and looked at the will carefully before putting it on the coffee table.
"Originally, I was going to talk about this after the New Year. But today I gave Rong Dai a New Year's gift, and it seems your mother is not very satisfied. Shao Jie and Mei Shu may also be puzzled, so I might as well do it today."
"Mom, you know I'm not petty, I just..."
"You're not petty, but your jealousy is too strong."
The old lady interrupted Lu Zheng before she could finish defending herself, her voice very sharp in rebuttal.
Seeing her mother-in-law's face getting worse, Rong Dai couldn't help but cry out inwardly.
These words were already very harsh.
She sighed lightly in her heart. Her mother-in-law was indeed a bit...not smart.
In her previous life, if a daughter-in-law wanted to obtain the power of distribution from her mother-in-law, she would have to spend a lot of effort not only to please her mother-in-law, but also to get recognition for her housekeeping skills.
Her mother-in-law's overt preoccupation with property like this was really not clever.
But she couldn't say anything, she could only listen.
She could only sigh lightly in her heart, no wonder when things went wrong in the Huo family at first, only the old lady could take charge.
Her mother-in-law Lu Zheng had this kind of temperament, she was like a greenhouse flower, unable to withstand any storms.
"Now Shao Ting is also married, the company has also stabilized, and there are still some minor issues that Shao Ting can resolve."
Old Lady Huo continued, completely ignoring Lu Zheng's pale face.
"You knew very well that set of jade jewelry was given by me to Rong Dai, yet you forced her to give it to you. Everyone likes fine jewels, but too much greed makes people disgusted."
"But ask yourself, haven't you received enough jewelry from me over the years?"
The old lady asked her, and Lu Zheng's face did not look good.
"Mom, this...which family isn't like this? When it's my turn, I will give the same to Rong Dai and Mei Shu. Why can't I take it?"
Lu Zheng asked with a flushed face.
There were many rules in these wealthy families that she was not unaware of.
It was precisely because she knew that she cared so much.
Old Lady Huo looked at her meaningfully: "I won't stop you from distributing your things however you want."
"But these are mine. Over the years since you married into the Huo family, and Serene passed away early, you raised the children alone for so many years."
"I appreciated your hard work and never said anything to you."
"Rong Dai is the one I personally selected for Shao Ting. Although a lot happened, she is the one to walk with Shao Ting in the future, not you as his mother."
The old lady's words were very sharp, and even Rong Dai was startled.
These words were already very harsh.
She couldn't help but sigh lightly in her heart. Her mother-in-law was indeed a bit...not smart.
In her previous life, if a daughter-in-law wanted to obtain the power of distribution from her mother-in-law, she would have to spend a lot of effort not only to please her mother-in-law, but also to get recognition for her housekeeping skills.
Her mother-in-law's overt preoccupation with property like this was really not clever.
But she couldn't say anything, she could only listen.
She could only sigh lightly in her heart, no wonder when things went wrong in the Huo family at first, only the old lady could take charge.
Her mother-in-law Lu Zheng had this kind of temperament, she was like a greenhouse flower, unable to withstand any storms.
"I know how these things should be distributed and who should get them."
Old Lady Huo's words were very stern. Even Huo Shao Jie and Huo Mei Shu did not expect the old lady to speak so harshly.
Among the family members, only Huo Shao Ting was the calmest.
After all, he was trained by the old lady herself, and knew her personality best.
"I've given you a lot over the years. As for who you want to give things to later, I won't ask you a word. Once I've given it to you, it's yours."
Old Lady Huo looked at her daughter-in-law, feeling more helpless than anything.
The Lu family had really spoiled her too much, her sights and perspectives were not broad enough.
Lu Zheng's eyes were very red, and she was almost crying.
Rong Dai wore this necklace, and felt her neck getting hotter and hotter, as if it was burning.
"The distribution of my jewelry has been decided. These are your portions, take a good look yourselves, if you have any questions you can ask me now."
The old lady had been through storms, and could be very intimidating when asserting her authority.
She gestured for them to take the will.
"Lu Zheng, you've kept the Huo family for so many years. If not for your contributions, at least for your hard work. So I've given you 40%."
"Your three children get 10% each, I keep 5% for myself, and the remaining 25% is for Rong Dai."
The old lady said.
Before others could react, Rong Dai was surprised herself.
Although she didn't know how much property the old lady had, this 25% almost reached the total of her uncle, aunt and the three Huo siblings.
"Granny..."
Rong Dai wanted to stop her, but the old lady interrupted her words.
Her heart thumped erratically, very uneasy.
Lu Zheng's eyes widened in shock. Although her share was large, the old lady giving Rong Dai so much, even more than her own children, she couldn't understand it.
On the other hand, Huo Shao Jie and Huo Mei Shu were only a little surprised at first, and didn't have much emotional reaction.
