Song Yunshu had seen Tang Yucai at the wedding yesterday, so she had some impression of her.

In addition, before she came to the old mansion this afternoon, Aunt Li had specially explained to her the relationship between the members of the Huo family.

Huo Cen was the son of Mr. Huo’s deceased wife, Huo Shanghai. He was the legitimate son of the first wife.

And now, Mrs. Huo, Tang Yucai, was Huo Shanghai’s second wife. Not long after Huo Cen’s mother, Bai Wan, passed away, Huo Shanghai married Tang Yucai, who was pregnant at that time, and had given birth to a son, Huo Di, and a daughter, Huo Jiao.

After Bai Wan passed away, Huo Cen was taken back to the Bai family, his grandfather raised him. He only returned to the Huo family when he was sixteen.

Huo Cen did not have any special feelings for his father and stepmother.

However, he still politely addressed her as his mother as a matter of etiquette

Now, Song Yunshu followed suit and called her ‘mother’.

“Various postures and colorful colors. That’s a very pleasant name. It suits you very well.”

Song Yunshu recalled the first time Huo Cen met her at the Huo family. He had said something similar.

She smiled and nodded as a response.

“Everyone has been waiting for you for a long time. Why are you alone? Where’s Huo Cen?”

After saying that, Tang Yucai glanced behind her and smiled coldly.

It gave people a feeling that it was especially difficult to get along with.

Song Yunshu was still tense.

She dares not to slack off at all in the Huo family’s old mansion.

After all, this was no different from the An family.

The Huo family is a traditional and rule-bound family.

Although she was frustrated, if she made the slightest mistake, what awaited her might be a bottomless abyss.

“He went to work overtime at the company today. He should be here soon.”

Tang Yucai nodded slowly.

“It’s getting late. Why don’t we get in? The rain outside seems to be getting heavier and heavier. Let’s go inside and wait.”

Song Yunshu obediently followed Tang Yucai to the front hall.

Behind them were a few other uncles, aunts, and relatives. Song Yunshu didn’t say a word throughout the whole walk, but a girl who was originally following Tang Yucai slowed down and moved close to her.

“Hello, sister-in-law. I’m Huo Jiao. We met yesterday. I’m your bridesmaid, remember?”

The girl was wearing a simple light green modern cheongsam.

Her hair was tied up in a ponytail, and the ponytail swayed slightly with her movements.

When she smiled, there were two deep dimples on her face.

She looked like a sweet and lovely girl.

Huo Jiao, Huo Cen’s half-sister, was two years younger than her.

The wedding last night was held in a hurry, so Huo Jiao took over as her bridesmaid. However, there were too many people at that time, so the two of them didn’t have much contact.

“Don’t be nervous. Before big brother comes, I will accompany you for a while. Don’t worry.”

As she spoke, she winked at Song Yunshu playfully, then quietly followed beside her.

There were even more people in the front hall.

Sitting at the head of the table was an elderly man with gray sideburns. He was Huo Cen’s biological grandfather. Sitting on his left and right were Huo Shanghai and Huo Shangqi.

When Song Yunshu followed Tang Yucai to the front hall, everyone’s attention was on her.

Some scrutinized her, while others discussed her in whispers.

In short, most of the family members were curious about her as a new daughter-in-law and could not help but want to take a few more glances at her.

Old Master Huo placed his hands on the walking stick in front of him. When he saw their figures coming in from afar, he subconsciously asked, “Huo Cen isn’t here yet?”

Old Master Huo was the current head of the Huo family. Although he was old, he had accumulated his prestige over the years. It was clearly a very ordinary question, but when it fell into Song Yunshu’s ears, it was mixed with some displeasure.

“Grandpa, sister-in-law said that big brother went to work overtime today and will only arrive later.”
