Chapter 180 Small talk
He originally wanted to show off in front of his acquaintances, but he almost got humiliated. In the end, Lin Mo treated the four of them to a seafood buffet, which cost 80 yuan per person.

That's the good thing about college students. Even though they say they're going to rip someone off, they actually restrain themselves when they get there. A few hundred yuan is enough to shut them up.

Unlike Liu Ruyan and Miss Yuan, who would spend several thousand yuan just to treat them to a meal.

Of course, those girls teased him a lot that night, especially class monitor Wang Jing and her roommate He Xiaoyue. Women really dare to ask anything when they gossip.

Wang and Chuanmei were just gossiping about how the two met, how they started dating, who confessed their feelings, and how far things had progressed, but as the two women talked, their expressions changed.

They even gossiped and asked him about Liu Ruyan's measurements and whether her skin was soft and smooth. How would he know? After all, he couldn't tell just by looking at her.

Fortunately, he was a guy, and there were other people around. If it were just the class monitor and her roommate, they probably wouldn't have been so open with their conversation.

Of course, the two women couldn't resist teasing the Sichuan girl at the dinner table, saying that he was indeed a man who drank herbal medicine, and even while drinking herbal medicine, he didn't forget to buy himself a toy. The Sichuan girl was so embarrassed that her face turned red and she gritted her teeth.

At first, Chuanmei didn't even want to come, afraid of being teased by the two women. But Lin Mo and Director Wang kept saying that if she didn't go, they would think she was guilty and might badmouth her behind her back.

Upon hearing this, Chuanmei reluctantly came over, but clearly, she couldn't escape being teased either. The five of them were already familiar with each other, and apart from Director Wang, they all knew what class monitor Wang Jing was thinking, so they naturally felt closer to each other and didn't hold back when they spoke.

As the two women drank some wine, they spoke even more casually, leaving the three men speechless at times. They never expected that these usually quiet girls would know so much.

In the end, since both women had been drinking, the task of escorting them back to their dormitories fell gloriously on Director Wang's shoulders, since he was the only one who wanted to go back to his dormitory.

Before they knew it, it was Wednesday. In the morning, Lin Mo and the old lady did their morning exercise on the school playground as usual. The old woman and the young man swung their arms and slapped themselves hard, making a slapping sound. Because the movements were quite large, it didn't look very good, but neither of them cared about the stares of the students around them.

"Xiao Lin, have you finished taking your medicine?" the old lady asked while swinging her arm.

Lin Mo, standing beside him, mirrored his actions: "Yes, we're planning to visit our teacher tonight, and also have him take our pulses again."

The three of them have finished their Chinese medicine. Yesterday, both of Chuanmei and the other girl started urging him to come over. Health is a big deal, so it can't be taken lightly.

"Today, you can go by yourself. I'm too lazy to go back. Anyway, you know where my house is. My old man has been getting a lot of requests from leaders to treat his health lately. I heard that several leaders have also been asking about you," Professor Mu said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo was taken aback: "Ask me about me?"

“Yes, you gave a massage to an old leader last time, and the effect was excellent. These past few days, my husband has been bringing his students from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital there frequently. They say that none of your massages are as comfortable as yours. Now, other people have been asking about you after hearing about it,” Professor Mu explained.

It turns out that ever since the last massage for Miss Yuan's grandfather, Old Jiang's condition has been the subject of much inquiry from others, and more and more leaders have come to Professor Li to treat their health issues.

Moreover, Jiang Lao also received several massages in the following days, but they were all done by his senior brother Pan Limin. However, as someone who personally experienced it, Jiang Lao still felt the difference in their techniques.

Simply put, Pan Limin's massage wasn't as comfortable as his, and other leaders also felt that the massage's effects were only so-so. That's why they started chatting about it in the courtyard.

Then, the name of Professor Li's last disciple, Lin Mo, spread among that group of retired cadres, and two leaders even said that they wanted Professor Li to take him to try out sometime.

Lin Mo could only smile after hearing this. He wasn't a doctor; he couldn't possibly give massages to those old leaders every day. After all, even with his relationship with Miss Yuan, Professor Li had specifically instructed him not to formally give massages to people in private. Now that Professor Li hadn't contacted him, he didn't need to pay any attention. After all, without Professor Li's company, he wouldn't dare give massages to strangers; it would be difficult to explain if something went wrong.

"By the way, Xiaolin, if you come over next time I'm home, you can bring your girlfriend along. Let's skip it today, I'm too old to make the trip."

"Also, do you have any plans to get married? Let me tell you, if you don't hurry up with this good girl, things can easily get complicated later," the old lady suddenly steered the conversation toward Liu Ruyan with a smile.

Today is Wednesday, so Professor Mu naturally won't be going home. She usually goes home on Saturdays and Sundays.

"Teacher, I'm still so young, I haven't even graduated yet, and marriage is a long way off," Lin Mo said with a wry smile.

He didn't explain Liu Ruyan's true identity, since even if he did, the old lady might not believe him, so why waste his breath?

"Nonsense, you can get married in college, and you can even get extra credits! Our school also has welfare policies for college students who get married. Getting married early and having kids early is great!" Professor Mu's opening remarks were a direct attack.

Lin Mo is still a student himself. He doesn't even feel like he's grown up. Asking him to have a baby now is no different from killing him.

"Having a baby? No, no, no, I still feel like a baby myself." Lin Mo waved his hand.

Professor Mu glanced at him: "What, you still want to be childless?"

"It's not about not having children, but about having them slowly, carefully, and with high quality. It's about having children gradually and confidently, letting capable and wealthy people have children so that they can lead the way for future generations. It's about having children in accordance with one's own circumstances and long-term goals. It's not about having children randomly, but about having children after careful consideration, planning, and taking steps, so as to promote common reproduction," Lin Mo said righteously.

Upon hearing this, Professor Mu raised his hand and slapped him: "You brat, stop talking nonsense. You even want the teacher to influence the younger generation. The marriage rate in society is so low now, and it has a lot to do with your kind of thinking."

Lin Mo:
No, you can't just pin this label on me?
"That's unfair! It's just that young people are under a lot of pressure. How can they get married if they don't have money? I can't help the low marriage rate, but I do have a good idea for increasing the birth rate."

"Oh? You care about national affairs? Tell me about it!" Professor Mu said with a smile.

The two chatted casually. Although Professor Mu was an elderly woman, she was not a stubborn old woman. She was very open to new things and was willing to communicate with young people.

"You see, because society is progressing so fast, young people have an overly rich nightlife, and naturally there are more things they can do."

When you were young, there were no cell phones, no internet, not even TVs, and sometimes the power would go out at night. There was no entertainment other than having babies. The birth rate was so high.

So my solution is to have a nationwide power outage every night after 10 PM, and the birth rate will go up in less than two years.”

Lin Mo said confidently, "This is definitely a good idea."

Professor Mu: "Get out of my way, you brat!"

Lin Mo: "Just tell me if it works or not!"

Professor Mu:
