Upon seeing this scene, Huo Xuan’s heart felt very warm, Because of Mo Zhu’s living environment since she was young, her personality was cold and lonely.
Not only did she not have any childhood playmates, but she didn’t even have a peer who could talk to her.
Now that he saw her getting along well with her classmates and gradually integrating into society, Huo Xuan felt happy for Mo Zhu from the bottom of his heart.

The few people who came to the Meng family as guests today were not much older than Mo Zhu and Meng Ran.
Seeing that Father Meng and Mother Meng were greeting everyone as if they were their own elders, they were not too restrained.
In a few minutes, they were laughing happily at the dining
table.

Halfway through the meal, Father Meng suddenly thought of something.
He cleared his throat, stood up, took out a small bottle of white wine from the locker behind him, and poured himself a glass.
Then, he walked straight to Mo Zhu, picked up the glass and said to the girl, “Xiao Zhu, let me toast you

on behalf of our Ranran!”

Seeing that Father Meng had something to say, Mo Zhu quickly stood up with the glass of water in front of her.

After a pause, Father Meng straightened his expression and said with a serious expression, “Xiao Zhu, Ranran’s mother and I have heard about what happened in school.
Ever since you transferred to Class Eight and became her deskmate, not only did her grades improve, but she has also become more
lively and cheerful than before.”

“Ranran’s mother and I are busy with business every day.
We had been busy with business trips since she was young, so she was used to taking care of herself.
It was your appearance that made her happier.
Thank you for taking care of Ranran all along!”

After saying this, a glint of tears flashed across Father Meng’s eyes.
He blinked and quickly raised his hand to finish the white wine in his glass.

Seeing this, Mo Zhu also raised the glass of water in her hand to Father Meng and returned the toast with water instead of wine.
“Uncle, you’re too polite to say that.”

‘When Father Meng heard this, he knew that Mo Zhu was not a child who adhered to etiquette.
He immediately laughed and said, “Alright, alright, let’s continue eating then!”

Everyone enjoyed their meal.
As Meng Ran was sitting next to Mo Zhu, she even secretly told her a lot of interesting things about her family.

After dinner, Father Meng invited everyone to try the new tea he brought back from other states.
Everyone sat in the living room of the Meng family and savored the tea.
After a while, Mo Zhu remembered the reason why she visited the Meng family.
She cleared her throat and took the initiative to say,

“Uncle, Meng Ran gave me a box of some herbs yesterday.
Do you have more here? I wonder if I can visit the courtyard where you grow the herbs?”

‘Meng Ran had also told Father Meng in advance that Mo Zhu wanted to see the herb garden, so Father Meng nodded and agreed readily.
Then, he stood up and brought them straight to the place where the Meng family planted the herbs.
As they followed Father Meng into the large shed where the spirit herbs were grown, they saw a shed filled with rare herbs.
Apart from Father Meng and Mo Zhu, everyone present widened their eyes in shock.

Before Xu Huan and Mo Wu came, they had always thought that Mo Zhu was only visiting her classmate’s house.
They never expected that not only was this unknown ordinary classmate of hers wealthy, but her family specialized in the herb business!

‘When Huo Xuan saw the countless spirit herbs in front of him, he turned to Mo Zhu in surprise and asked, “Are these all spirit herbs planted in this shed?”

Mo Zhu nodded.
She lowered her eyes very calmly and pointed at the nearest spirit herb.
“Look at this one.
Can you tell what it looks like?”

Following the direction where Mo Zhu’s finger was pointing, Huo Xuan carefully observed it for a few seconds before his pupils suddenly constricted.
He asked uncertainly, “This is? The Ten Thousand Aged Pine Snow Herb?”

Mo Zhu raised her eyebrows, as if she was surprised that Huo Xuan could recognize this medicine.
She retracted her hand indifferently and said softly as she followed Father Meng, “That’s right.
I didn’t expect you to recognize it.”

Upon hearing Mo Zhu’s words, Mo Wu and Xu Huan, who were following closely behind the girl, silently exchanged looks.

They could not believe what they had just heard.
This herb was the Ten Thousand Aged Pine Snow Herb? A rare herb that was viewed as a treasure by the people of Beijing, it had actually appeared in the vegetable garden of an ordinary family in a remote county city!
Besides that! In the entire courtyard, there was a vast expanse of spirit herbs that looked exactly the same as the Ten Thousand Aged Pine Snow Herb.
It looked like there were too many to count!

Xu Huan looked at Father Meng, who was still leading the way for everyone, in shock.
He sighed deeply… As expected, experts hid in the city well and did things quietly!
