I sold grilled fish in the 70s!

Alright! You'd better stay by your mother's side today, okay? When I get back today, I'll take you back to the Yang family mansion, okay?

Mu Long said softly while rubbing Xiao Furong's belly.

Long'er, is there something you need to do today? You two brothers are really something! You never tell your father and mother about anything!

Madam, do you know what this is called? They've all grown up and don't tell us anything anymore! We shouldn't always follow them around. It's time for us to let go!

Ahhhhh!

Wukong, who was sitting next to Yuqin, suddenly shouted. He was about to jump onto Yuqin when Muhe pressed him down onto his lap.

Little guy, are you trying to be naughty again? I'm telling you, don't provoke me again! Otherwise, I'll lock you in the cage.

Ahhhhh!

When Wukong heard that its master was going to lock it in the small cage, it jumped around unhappily. Mu Long shook his head helplessly. He had originally wanted to take Furong to Liao's mother's birthday banquet, but he was afraid that little Furong would cause trouble at the banquet, so he gave up the idea.

Father! Perhaps it's not good for you to keep Wukong by your side all this time? The little rascal is so mischievous; I'm afraid one day...

Haha! Are you afraid that one day Wukong will hurt your little kitten? Mu Long, don't you think you've been neglecting your duties lately?

Father, please don't say that about me! I am a person who is destined to achieve great things, and I would never let myself be distracted by trivial matters!

Haha! Look at him, he doesn't do anything productive all day long, just lounging around holding a kitten. Isn't that just indulging in frivolous pursuits and neglecting his duties?

After hearing Mu He's words, Mu Long couldn't help but feel downcast! Maybe! In his father's eyes, he was just a good-for-nothing!

In fact, this was the main reason Mu Long founded Longsheng Commercial Street! He really wanted to find an opportunity to prove to his elder brother and father that he wasn't someone who did nothing but waste his time.

Mu Long sighed and said, "Father, Mother, I need to go out for a bit because today is my eldest sister-in-law's mother's birthday. I want to go to the Liao residence to wish her a happy birthday."

Oh! Why didn't you tell me about this beforehand? I could have prepared a wonderful gift for Madam Liao!

Hehe! Mother, where did you go? It seems the Liao family doesn't really welcome you, Mother. Because in all these years since my elder brother and sister-in-law got married, you've never invited my sister-in-law back for a single family dinner!

Yuqin's face darkened instantly upon hearing Mulong's words, and she pointed a finger at him.

You little brat, what are you saying? If it weren't for your two brats and your wife constantly causing trouble for me, I would have invited your sister-in-law and brother home long ago!

Haha! Mother, why are you blaming me for this? Didn't you always look down on my sister-in-law's background before? How come...

You! You! You! How dare you speak to your mother like that, you unfilial son?

Mu Long was afraid that he might accidentally anger his mother, so he quickly went out.

Zhuzhu brought some delicious cranberry cookies and caramel popcorn into the central hall. Two or three large round tables had already been set up in the hall, laden with all sorts of delicious treats.

Zhuzhu placed the food she was holding on a small round table in the corner. Just as Zhuzhu was about to go to the kitchen to get some plates to put the cranberry cookies on, Longzhen stopped her.

No need! Let's keep these cookies for Qingping! The students of Jinyong Academy know that your grandmother is celebrating her birthday today and they've brought lots of delicious things.

Upon hearing this, Zhuzhu put down what she was holding and, having nothing else to do, quietly watched the birthday banquet from the sidelines.

Little sister, this is so delicious! Let's take some more home!

An elderly woman, without a second thought, grabbed a handful of small tomatoes from a basin and stuffed them into her granddaughter's pocket. Even though the pocket was already full, the woman still got up to get some other treats.

At this moment, Long Hong came to Zhu Zhu with a water ladle and scooped a ladleful of Lei Cha (pounded tea) from the bucket. Then she filled the seats with delicious Lei Cha for the guests.

"Grandma, I really can't eat anymore! Please drink the rest of the Lei Cha!" a little boy said to his grandmother in a spoiled manner.

Hey! Didn't I already tell you? Today is the Liao family's birthday banquet, and I told you not to eat breakfast! You wouldn't listen. Now look what's happened! You can't eat anything.

"If you can't finish them, just put them back and eat them slowly!" As he said this, the little boy actually climbed onto the table and picked up the cookies from the plate.

Upon seeing this, Zhuzhu rushed forward and grabbed the little boy. Just as she was about to lift him off the table, the boy tumbled backward. Zhuzhu lost her balance and fell to the floor.

What happened? What happened? Zhuzhu, why did you fall down?

Long Hong immediately put down what she was doing and went to Zhu Zhu's side. Just as she was about to pull Zhu Zhu up from the floor, Zhu Zhu stood up on her own and dusted herself off.

It's alright, Aunt! You go and do your thing! Don't worry about me.

Oh dear! My little darling! How come you climbed onto the table when I wasn't looking at you for a moment?

The little boy sitting at the table was immediately lifted off the table by his grandmother. The little boy cried unhappily and kept kicking his legs.

At this moment, Mu Long, wearing a mask, came to Zhu Zhu's side and deliberately lowered his voice.

Little princess, do you miss your uncle? Where is Yingying? I miss that cute little girl a little.

Zhuzhu asked in surprise, "Uncle, what brings you to my grandma's house? Oh, and did Xiao Furong come with you?"

Of course I'm here to wish your grandma a happy birthday! Why did you ask me about Little Hibiscus as soon as you saw me?

Of course, it's because little Furong is so cute! Uncle, let me tell you! You really need to keep a close eye on your kitten!

Why? Are you little brats trying to steal my Little Hibiscus?

"Please sit down and have some tea, guest! Why are you still standing here?" Long Hong served a bowl of Lei Cha (pounded tea) and placed it in front of Mu Long.

Mu Long accepted the Lei Cha from Long Hong's hand, thanked her, and then sat down at the table closest to him.

Have you heard? The owner of Longsheng Street finally showed up a few nights ago!

Yes, yes! How could we miss such big news! My son drove all night to Shenglong Street just to catch a glimpse of the street owner!

Did you see that? Did you see that? Did your son see the street owner of Longsheng Street?

When Mu Long heard someone mention him, he listened with great interest, holding his Lei Cha (a type of tea).

I heard that Master Long treated some people to drinks that night! I wonder if the wine Master Long gave them was any good?
