Reborn Fairy Wife Takes Me on a Gaggle-Fire rampage

Xiaoxiao responded with a big smile, "Oh, you're too kind! You know our old traditions, right? It's not right to visit someone's house empty-handed!" With that, she waved her hand gently, indicating that it was nothing to mention.

At this moment, Mu Chen gracefully walked over to Su Yun and sat down next to her. Then, he smiled and said to Xiao Xiao, "Sister Xiao Xiao, please have some tea." As he spoke, he handed a steaming cup of fragrant tea to Xiao Xiao.

Xiaoxiao, on the other hand, appeared very generous and casual, nodding quickly and replying, "Thank you, I'm drinking it now, it smells so good!" After saying that, she picked up her teacup and took a small sip, a satisfied expression on her face.

Then, Mu Chen put down his teacup and asked curiously, "Sister Xiaoxiao, I heard that you started a medicinal herb business after you immigrated. How is it going?"

Xiaoxiao smiled slightly and replied modestly, "Actually, it's just a small business, enough to make a living. But the competition is quite fierce now, and it's not easy to grow it into a big and successful business!"

Mu Chen nodded thoughtfully and continued to ask, "So, what kinds of medicinal herbs do you mainly deal in?"

Xiaoxiao thought for a moment, then began to explain in detail: "Our shop has all kinds of medicinal herbs, such as common ones like ginseng, deer antler, and goji berries, as well as some more precious and rare varieties. Basically, we will try our best to meet the needs of our customers."

After listening to Xiaoxiao's story, Mu Chen couldn't help but exclaim, "It seems you've done a pretty comprehensive job in your business!"

Xiaoxiao smiled and then asked, "By the way, Mu Chen, how long have you been back in China this time?"

Mu Chen picked up his teacup, took a sip, and replied, "It's been about two or three months."

"Oh, that's quite a long time. Why did you come back alone? Didn't the rest of the family come with you?" Xiaoxiao asked with concern.

Mu Chen explained, "Yes, they're all too busy to come back, so I was the only one who came back to check on things this time."

With a smile on her face, Aunt Hu slowly walked out of the kitchen, carrying a steaming plate of fragrant dishes in both hands. As she placed the dishes on the dining table, she warmly called out to the living room, "Madam, Sir, dinner is ready!"

Hearing Aunt Hu's call, Mu Chen quickly stood up, carefully helped Su Yun to her feet, and said gently, "Let's go, darling, let's go have a meal." As he spoke, he gently supported Su Yun's arm, and the two walked towards the restaurant together.

At this moment, Xiaoxiao, who was sitting to the side, also got up and quickly walked to the dining table to sit down. Looking at the table full of delicious-looking food, her eyes lit up and she couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, did you specially transfer your housekeeper from your own restaurant? Her cooking skills are simply amazing! Just looking at these dishes makes my mouth water!"

Mu Chen smiled slightly and replied modestly, "Not at all, Xiao Xiao, you flatter me. Actually, Aunt Hu wasn't transferred from the restaurant, but she's really good at cooking. You should try it and see if it suits your taste. If you like it, you're welcome to come and visit often." After saying that, Mu Chen even made a gesture for Xiao Xiao to start eating.

"Haha, then I won't be polite!" Xiaoxiao laughed happily, picked up her chopsticks, and eagerly put a piece of braised pork into her mouth. With just one bite, she was captivated by the deliciousness, praising it endlessly: "Mmm, it's so delicious! It's fatty but not greasy, melts in your mouth, the taste is absolutely amazing!" Then, she tried several other dishes in succession, enjoying each one with great relish and munching away.

After the meal, Xiaoxiao hurriedly stood up, saying she had work to do and couldn't stay any longer. She then said goodbye to everyone and left. Watching her departing figure, everyone couldn't help but feel a little sentimental.

Mu Chen chose to rest for a while. He went into the bedroom, lay down on the soft bed, and soon fell into a nap. Time passed quietly, and when he woke up, he found Su Yun still sound asleep beside him. Considering the importance of his work, Mu Chen quietly got up, tidied his clothes, and then quietly left the room to go to the company.

As soon as Mu Chen returned to the company, his secretary immediately came to greet him and handed him a detailed list of all the tasks that needed to be handled that afternoon. After taking the list, Mu Chen quickly sat down at his desk and devoted himself to the intense and busy work.

Meanwhile, Su Yun was sleeping peacefully in her room. However, a sudden commotion shattered the tranquility—the servants in the courtyard were washing it. The rushing water and the clanging of utensils made it impossible for Su Yun to continue sleeping. She frowned, rubbed her eyes, and peeked out of her room. The entire courtyard, after being thoroughly cleaned, looked brand new and exuded a fresh scent.

People were coming and going in the courtyard; some were washing the ground with hoses, others were wiping tables, chairs, doors, and windows, everyone busy and methodical. Just then, the sound of car brakes came from the gate, followed by a small truck slowly coming to a stop. The driver got out of the truck with practiced ease and opened the rear door.

Upon seeing this, Butler Zhu hurried forward and said warmly, "Master, you've come to deliver fish again!" The fisherman had a kind and honest face. Hearing Butler Zhu's greeting, he smiled and replied, "Yes, it's all thanks to you. Our business is so fortunate to have your continued support!"

Standing at the window, Su Yun witnessed this scene and couldn't help but scratch his head, muttering to himself, "This isn't Steward Zhu taking care of things at all; I think it's all thanks to Xiao Hei!" Sure enough, Xiao Hei had somehow already dashed down from the attic and was now excitedly perched on the pavilion beside the pond, eagerly awaiting the arrival of the new batch of fish. Judging by its impatient manner, it was even more enthusiastic in welcoming the fish-delivery man than Steward Zhu himself!

A small truck loaded with fish slowly drove up to the pond. The fish on board were lively and jumping around, seemingly eager to embrace their new environment. The fish varied in size and species, a dazzling sight.

A crowd gathered, watching basket after basket of fish being poured into the pond. Ripples instantly spread across the water, and the fish swam joyfully, as if celebrating their newfound freedom and rebirth.

In fact, everyone present knew very well that the reason the truckload of fish had disappeared was entirely because Xiao Hei had eaten them. And the fish they had specially bought this time were carefully selected, all of them being Xiao Hei's favorite varieties.
