After a while, the butler brought the brewed tea over and said, "Sir, the tea is ready."
"Yeah." Mr. Mu took a sip of tea and couldn't help but sigh: "This tea smells so good."
"I should have brought some tea to Shaoling yesterday." After saying that, he took another sip of tea.
"Grandpa, why are you so greedy? Didn't you have any tea yesterday?" Murui Cheng asked curiously and poured himself a cup.
"Shaoling doesn't like tea, so how can you expect him to find any good tea?" Mr. Mu said. After all, a place like his does not entertain guests, let alone prepare tea.
Some of the tea was just for seeing off guests. The old man knew it, so he didn't ask for tea.
"Then you have to drink a pot of tea every day. Wouldn't you feel uncomfortable without tea?" Mu Ruicheng knew the old man's habits very well. The old man loved drinking tea.
"It's not that uncomfortable. The fruit and vegetable juices made by Nian Mu are delicious. It can be used as a substitute for tea occasionally, but after thinking about it, tea leaves are the best way to refresh yourself." Mr. Mu played with the antique tea cup in his hand. This tea set is still
Mu Shaoling gave it to him.
Because he loves to drink tea, he has many sets of antique tea sets at home, but the one he holds in his hand is his favorite.
"Grandpa, the more you talk, the more I want to taste Professor Nian's cooking skills." Murui Cheng said, adding new tea to the old man.
Cai Xiufen on the side was sitting on pins and needles, listening to the conversation between their grandfather and grandson, she couldn't help but wonder.
Mu Ruicheng seemed to be trying to please the old man, but he kept mentioning Mu Shaoling and Nian Mu.
There's no way he doesn't know that these two people will be his biggest rivals in inheriting the family business!
Her eyes darkened slightly, but she didn't dare to make an attack.
The housekeeper came over and said with a smile: "Old man, people from the Liang family are here to visit."
"Liang family? Which Liang family?" Mr. Mu looked confused. He knew many people from the Liang family, but which one was outside the door?
Cai Xiufen answered: "It's my cousin's house."
"Your cousin's house..." Mr. Mu nodded. Although it was said to be Cai Xiufen's cousin's house, it was not in City A at all.
Moreover, this cousin is somewhat distantly related.
But they come here every year with large and small bags, and it has been like this for more than ten years since they started doing business.
He is not a friend of the Mu family. If he is a relative, he can only be a distant relative. But after more than ten years, Mr. Mu doesn't find it strange.
After all, in the shopping mall, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests.
They did this just to show that the two families were somewhat related to the Mu family, and that there were benefits to cooperating with others in the mall.
"Yes, old man, they come here every year." Cai Xiufen said. Because of her, her relatives from her natal family would bring some connections to come here to pay New Year's greetings.
Especially in the past 20 years, T Group has grown bigger and bigger, and more and more people come to visit with relatives and friends to pay New Year greetings.
Cai Xiufen is naturally happy, after all, it gives her face.
"Let people come in, and prepare tea." Mr. Mu said to the butler. He did not expect Cai Xiufen's distant relatives to come so early this year. After all, on the second day of the new year, they are basically the closest relatives.
I'm walking around, and I feel so anxious when a close relative like this comes on the second day of the Lunar New Year.
Cai Xiufen on the side did not realize that Mr. Mu was slightly dissatisfied, and said quickly: "These are ready, the nanny will bring them out, butler, please bring the people in."
"Yes, ma'am." The housekeeper nodded and went out to take the people.
Mr. Mu looked at Mu Ruicheng and asked, "Where are Ruirui and Tianyu?"
"Grandpa, Ruirui should be putting on makeup. Tianyu was so noisy last night that he refused to rest, so he should sleep more." Mu Ruicheng replied.
"Child, it's all about your parents. Look at the dark circles under your eyes. Did you stay up late?" Mr. Mu is thoughtful and observant.
Although Mu Ruicheng cheered up, he could still tell that the other party didn't get enough rest.
"Grandpa, it's Chinese New Year..." Murui Cheng scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Are you going to Tian Yu's grandpa's house in the afternoon?" Mr. Mu asked. According to past customs, Mu Ruicheng would accompany Du Ruirui back to her parents' home on the second day of the Lunar New Year.
"Well, yes." Mu Ruicheng nodded and looked at Cai Xiufen, "But first we will go to my grandpa's house, then to Tian Yu's grandpa's house, and then we should have dinner at Du's house."
"Well, this itinerary is well arranged. If it's late for dinner, I'll spend the night at Du's house. When I came back today, I heard on the radio that there was heavy snow. It's not safe to drive in heavy snow at night." Mr. Mu said, worried about them.
of safety.
"Okay, Grandpa, don't worry, I will take care of it." Mu Ruicheng said, because his grandfather is still here, so today's schedule will be more urgent.
Cai Xiufen originally wanted to say that she could go to Cai's house first and then rush back to have dinner with the old man.
But thinking that the old man followed these etiquettes the most and returned to her parents' home on the second day of the Lunar New Year, she had no choice but to give up.
However, I don’t know how many guests I will miss if I am not here this afternoon and evening.
In order to show more respect in front of Mr. Mu, these people came here to pay New Year greetings on the second day of the Lunar New Year. It was not just the Liang family. According to past trends, many people from the business family came here on the second day of the Lunar New Year to express their respect for the Mu family.
of attention.
Cai Xiufen was a little impatient. If she was away in the afternoon and evening, Murui Cheng would miss a lot of opportunities.
The nanny brought the refreshments for the guests to the table, and the housekeeper also brought in the Liang family.
After some pleasantries, a few people sat down, and the Liang family members tried their best to find topics to compliment Mr. Mu.
Cai Xiufen sat aside, not thinking much about talking.
After all, the Liang family's business had nothing to do with the Mu family or Mu Ruicheng, so she didn't bother to talk.
After all, he is just a distant relative. Before their family started doing business, they would not come to pay New Year greetings.
In the final analysis, it was all driven by profit, and she had no intention of paying attention to it. After all, there was no profit to be gained.
…
The other side.
Mu Shaoling walked into the storage room after Mr. Mu left.
When Nianmu saw this, he knew that he was going to the Lin family to pay New Year's greetings to the Ruan family.
Whether it was the Lin family or the Ruan family, he treated them equally and would stay with them for a meal to spend time with her parents, grandparents, and aunt.
Nianmu also followed into the storage room.
"Mr. Mu, are you looking for a gift?" Nian Mu asked.
"Well, please help me. It's clear that what you released is going to be sent to the Lin family and the Ruan family." Mu Shaoling asked her to come.
Nian Mu walked to the storage shelf and found the gifts she wanted to give to both families. These were carefully selected by her and suitable for both families.
"This is from the Lin family, this is from the Ruan family." Nian Mu said to Mu Shaoling.
Mu Shaoling raised his eyebrows and said, "You don't need to tell the difference so clearly. You can go with us."
