After Marrying the Officer Chapter 1399 - 1398: Returning Home, Huo Shiwu the Little Steward’s Worries (Side Story)

Hmm, to little Huo Shiwu, his mom is sometimes quite silly, but sometimes, she’s quite nice.

So, little Huo Shiwu decided that in the future, he would earn money for himself and also for his mom and dad.

Watching the interaction between mother and son, Huo Shiqian, who was standing nearby, let laughter spill from his eyes.

With such a wife and such a child, what more could a husband ask for?

The advertisement that little Huo Shiwu shot was only aired in the United States after Xia Chuyi and the others had returned to China.

A little kid, dressed in a tiny chef’s outfit, wielding a knife in earnest—as Scarlett predicted, this advertisement was very successful.

And the empire of WEI, the global giant in the food industry, started from this moment.

Many years later, when Huo Shiwu—known as Huo Lixing—grew up and established his own business empire, this ad was dug up and became a delightful anecdote.

Of course, these are stories for later; let’s not delve into them now.

Shortly after the ad was finished, the planning for WEI’s proposal, which involved Xia Chuyi and Scarlett, concluded, and they handed over the follow-up matters to Rayne (who had invested in shares). The delegation from China was ready to head back.

Naturally, Huo Shiqian’s group also had to return home.

After all, with Huo Shiqian’s status, he couldn’t just stay in any one place for too long.

On the day they returned to the country, the family of three went back to Bao Mansion—when little Huo Shiwu grew a bit older, Xia Chuyi and Huo Shiqian moved back to Bao Mansion.

After not seeing Shi Wu for a long time, the child’s grandparents, grandfather, and uncle all gathered at Bao Mansion.

"My precious grandson!" As soon as Mrs. Ou saw Shi Wu, she couldn’t help but scoop the little guy into her arms, saying with heartache, "You’ve gotten thinner, oh so thin!"

"He has indeed lost some weight." Ou ZhenTing echoed from the side.

Grandfather Huo Zhenping also said, "He has indeed lost some weight, but it’s nothing, we’ll fatten him up now he’s home."

Xia Chuyi glanced left and right at her son.

This cheeky boy clearly gained a rounder face, where did they see thinness?

Of course, she only thought this to herself and wouldn’t dare say it to the elders.

"Shi Wu, do you still remember us?" Along with welcoming Xia Chuyi’s family back, there were Xiao Jingqi and others.

Ou Jun and Xiao Jingqi were already married, but they hadn’t had any kids yet.

So, for the smart, adorable, and witty Huo Shiwu, Xiao Jingqi was incredibly fond of him too.

Little Huo Shiwu was slightly tired on the plane, but shortly after getting off, he woke up.

Just like the doctor’s evaluation in the American hospital, this boy’s health was exceptionally good.

Feeling her aged body a bit worn out, Xia Chuyi couldn’t help but envy her young son.

"I remember." Upon hearing his aunt’s question, Huo Shiwu started his first greetings in a while, "Grandpa, grandma, grandpa, uncle, auntie."

Hearing Huo Shiwu’s clear and clever child’s voice, the elders immediately responded with satisfaction, "Aye, such a good kid!"

Then, out of season, little Huo Shiwu inexplicably received a pile of red envelopes.

Previously, little Huo Shiwu didn’t care much about red envelopes.

But ever since he saw his mother working so hard to earn the "milk money," little Huo Shiwu suddenly started to value them.

"Thank you, grandma, grandpa, uncle, auntie!" Holding the red envelopes, little Huo Shiwu said earnestly and loudly, "In the future, when I grow up, I’ll give you red envelopes!"

"Good, good child!" Hearing Huo Shiwu say this made the elders even happier, and they took out a new round of red envelopes.

Xia Chuyi: ...

One trip to the United States and her son turned into a little money grubber?

Ahem, she would never admit that it had anything to do with her.
