18 Magical Honey Water

He did not expect that he would be the one who stopped his mother's hobby.

Li An thought to himself with embarrassment.

However, Li An did not object. Instead, he was very supportive. One of the main missions of his return was to persuade his parents not to work too hard.

As for closing the shop at this stage, it was impossible. This shop had been operating for more than ten years, so they more or less had some feelings for it. Moreover, in their opinion, although he had won seven million dollars, it was not a stable source of income. Therefore, Li An only hoped that they could relax now. When he picked more options in the future and had more money, he would let them retire early.

"Does your leg still hurt?" Li An took a bite of the ice cream and asked casually.

His father had some arthritis which could be considered an old problem. He would usually walk and feel sore, and it would hurt even more if he was affected by the humidity. This was the second main mission. It was to see if the healthy parents' option had been fulfilled.

"No, I've been much better recently. I was just about to tell you about this." Li Jianguo was interested and sat up.

Li An stopped biting the ice cream and tilted his head. "What do you mean?"

"Your mother saw a remedy on WeChat last month. She said that a cup of honey water every morning has the effect of detoxifying and nourishing my body. Then, she forced me to drink honey water every day," Li Jianguo said with a sigh.

"At first, I didn't believe it. This kind of forwarded remedy on WeChat is usually fake. I didn't expect that after drinking it for a period of time, it really worked!" Li Jianguo expressed his surprise, "My old illness hasn't hurt for a long time, including your mother's cervical spondylosis. It hasn't happened recently!"

Li An took a deep breath and thanked that god on Weibo again.

Honey water could treat cervical spine disease and arthritis?

Anyone who studied science would flip the table upon hearing this statement.

"That's really strange." Li An nodded in agreement. He would let them attribute this to the magical honey water. In any case, there was no harm in drinking a cup in the morning.

"I think it's strange too, but sometimes, this kind of remedy is really unpredictable." Li Jianguo smiled and said, "I feel that my body has become much younger now. The quality of my sleep should be much better. I'm very energetic in the morning. Go back and try it. Drink a cup every morning."

Li An nodded and agreed on the surface. "Alright."

He did not plan to buy any honey to drink.

Two hours later, Li An looked at the two large bottles of honey in front of him and fell into deep thought…

"Remember to take these two bottles with you when you leave. Drink one cup every morning. Just one spoonful is enough, understand?" Chen Meifen returned home and instructed her son.

"Oh…" Li An nodded insincerely.

"Be obedient and drink it every day. Look, my skin is much better now!" Mother Li could tell that her son was perfunctory and continued to educate him, "Take a good look at the WeChat messages I usually send you. There's scientific reason in it, understand?"

"Oh…" Li An recalled the links his old mother had forwarded to him.

"Apples are only good for consumption in the day! They are poisonous at night!"

"You can't cook vegetables like this!"

"Ginger is comparable to a soul recovery medicine. Unfortunately, 99% of people only use it as a seasoning!"

"Eating two garlic cloves a day will let you live for a hundred years!"

"There's actually sodium chloride in KFC. Everyone who eats it will die!"

...

Tsk, no wonder he felt that the links his mother forwarded to him had become more frequent recently…

"Is it fun to be alone in another city? How many days are you staying this time?" Chen Meifen interrupted Li An's memories and asked in concern.

Li An's heart warmed. It seemed that his mother missed him. He would stay for a few more days and accompany them well. Therefore, he said, "It's quite boring to stay alone. I plan to stay for a few more days and leave when school starts."

Chen Meifen pursed her lips and said impatiently, "You're not going out to play with your classmates? Don't you have friends?"

Li An: ???

Why did he hear a trace of disdain?

Li An scratched his head, not understanding.

"Alright, so be it. Look, go dump the trash first." Chen Meifen slapped Li An's head and instructed.

Li Jianguo looked at his wife and then at his son. Then, he searched the room for flies.

Li An carried the trash bag out miserably.

"Oh, Ah Da is back!" In the convenience store beside him, an auntie in a dress leaned against the counter and greeted with a smile.

The dress was the kind that was sewn with cloth and looked very old-fashioned.

"That's right, Auntie. I'm back for two days." Li An waved his hand.

From time to time, others greeted him, and Li An greeted them one by one.

Many people on this street had watched Li An grow up and were all old neighbors.

"Ah Da, come, come. Eat a popsicle." On the way back, it was Auntie Zhang again. She waved at him.

"I'm coming!" Li An had just eaten ice cream, but he was too embarrassed to reject it, so he smiled and walked over.

Li An took the northeast board and leaned against the counter. He removed the packaging and licked it. "Auntie Zhang, do you want to go to my house to cool off? In any case, the weather is hot now and there's no business."

Auntie Zhang's shop was open, so there was only an electric fan running continuously in the shop. There were some sweat stains flowing at her temples.

"It's fine, I have an electric fan." Auntie Zhang smiled and rejected. Then, she said, "Did you go to the university to take a look after the test?"

"No, I'm going at the end of the month anyway," Li An replied.

"Oh, that's true. Have you been playing with your classmates recently?" Aunt Zhang continued to ask.

The two of them chatted again. Li An thought that Auntie Zhang was bored, so he chatted with her. In the end, he was caught off guard.

"Do you have a girlfriend now?" Aunt Zhang asked with a smile.

"No, no. My priority now is to study." Li An hurriedly shook his head. What a joke. He did not have one in the first place. Even if he did, it was impossible for him to admit it. Auntie Zhang was a neighbor of his parents, so it was hard to guarantee that his parents did not send her over to get information.

"Damn, you're an adult now. You can find one." Auntie Zhang was quite satisfied and continued.

Li An suspected that Aunt Zhang was baiting him, so he shook his head firmly.

However, in the next moment, Aunt Zhang's words shocked everyone, "You've seen my daughter, Ruirui, right? She's beautiful, right? Should I introduce her to you next year?"

Li An's breathing stopped. He glanced at Aunt Zhang and was speechless.

Since the two families had been neighbors for so many years, Li An had naturally seen Auntie Zhang's daughter. Her name was Zhang Xinrui, and they had often played together when they were young.

Their relationship was very good, and they were a little like childhood sweethearts. She had always followed Li An around and even said that she wanted to marry him when she grew up.

It was not until Li An went to East River to study in junior high that the two of them grew up and rarely met that their relationship gradually became distant. Now, they basically only met and greeted each other without chatting much.
