The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 341

Huo Mei Shu was wringing her hands on her chest, biting her lips for a few seconds before carefully telling Rong Dai everything that had happened today from start to finish.

"Sister-in-law, we would have no objection if Mom wanted to remarry."

"She has lived her entire life for my dad and us three siblings."

"In a prestigious family, she did enjoy luxury, but there are some things that we as her children are unable to give her."

Huo Mei Shu was afraid Rong Dai would have some unpleasant thoughts about this. After all, in the eyes of outsiders, Lu Zheng was already a 50-year-old woman.

At her age, people would think she should just quietly stay at home waiting to die - this was the only "normal" thing that those who believed themselves normal could accept.

But the pursuit of love had never been the privilege of the young!

"If she really found a man who sincerely treats her well and can spend the second half of her life with her in peace, we would fully support it with open arms."

"But that Uncle Yin we saw today looked sleek on the outside but something about his eyes made me feel uneasy."

Huo Mei Shu explained with a frown.

Sometimes a woman’s sixth sense could be as accurate as radar or GPS.

Rong Dai was surprised that her mother-in-law had this kind of experience.

Although given her status in her past life, it would have been impossible for her mother-in-law to remarry at this age.

But things were different here - she had already accepted many fresh ideas in this new world.

Just like what her sister-in-law said, life was so short.

Why should women be constrained by all kinds of restrictions? Why couldn't they seek their own happiness?

She liked such carefree freedom.

Having spent ten years in the cold palace in her past life, she could really empathize with her mother-in-law’s gloom.

Some voids could not be filled simply by money or a respectable life.

One lived this life pursuing desires. It was just that some desires could be suppressed while others, once out of control, would lead to destruction.

"Also, Mom is not that kind of person. Even if I upset her with something I said yesterday, she would at most ignore me instead of talking to me in that tone. I don't think Mom is happy at all - when you meet someone you really like, just like you and big brother, you can't hide it."

Huo Mei Shu went on analyzing her viewpoint.

Rong Dai listened very carefully.

It would be understandable if her mother-in-law was really deceived or coerced into acting so out of character.

Her mother-in-law had a lot of self-respect but lacked power.

Her grandmother-in-law was a strong woman. She was the one who contributed the most to the Huo family’s ability to stand tall until this day without being defeated.

It’s easy to build an empire but hard to maintain it.

Her grandmother-in-law clearly understood this principle. Her mother-in-law was definitely not a suitable candidate to take over the family business.

That’s why there was that incident on New Year’s Eve.

Although her mother-in-law didn't say anything more about it, as a fellow woman who had the life experience of palace concubines in her previous life, she could see through her mother-in-law’s personality at a glance.

Her mother-in-law was still very concerned about taking over family operations, but her grandmother-in-law had already spoken, and neither San Lei nor the others objected.

How could her mother-in-law alone resist them?

It was precisely this kind of personality that made it more likely her mother-in-law would not easily tell her children about thorny issues she encountered.

Because she cared about keeping face.

She was like a precious vase - eye-catching and beautiful when displayed, but would become worthless if cracked one day.

After maintaining her graceful composure for so many years, her mother-in-law would certainly not allow such flaws to appear on herself.
