Everything I bought on online shopping platforms was genuine.

Chapter 861 Old buddy, we're going to fight side by side again.

This "Myriad Colors Hand Cream" truly lived up to its reputation as the treasure that made him rich. After using just one box, his mother looked completely transformed, appearing several years younger.

You know, his mother is only in her forties. Although she is not as wealthy as Ms. Cheng or Ms. Jiang because she is a teacher and has a lot of worries, even though his mother is younger than them, he has started to leave some good things for the two of them to nourish their bodies since he returned last October.

Poria cocos throat lozenges, Bazhen cake, bone-strengthening liquid, fish oil, and honey are all good things with special effects.

Over time, his parents have recovered a lot, especially with the Poria cocos throat lozenges, which can clear the lungs. With their health improved, they naturally look younger.

It can be said that his parents at least match his age in appearance, and are even younger.

He looks to be in his early forties.

This time, I gave this Wan Zi Qian Hong hand cream to my mother, and wow, the effect was immediate! Her skin became whiter and smoother. Although there were still some signs of aging on her face, she looked like she was in her thirties. No one would think she was a woman in her forties.

Moreover, to put it simply, Lin Mo had to admit that although he wasn't a top-tier handsome man, he wasn't bad-looking either, and his appearance was entirely inherited from his mother, that is, from his maternal family.

His father, Comrade Lin, was just an ordinary person, which is undeniable. His mother, on the other hand, came to improve the genes of the Lin family.

He didn't even look at his mother's and his aunt's names.

Zhou Hui, Zhou Min, put them together and that's Zhou Huimin.

His mother was stunned after using the hand cream today, not only because her skin became whiter and softer, but because she saw what she looked like when she was young.

The days when I used to get angry with students and stay up late grading papers, my face turning sallow from exhaustion, are gone forever.

Then, for the first time, Lin Mo saw his mother jumping and skipping around the house like a little girl, standing in front of the mirror, overjoyed, occasionally exclaiming and screaming, before calming down after a while.

Then his mother, Zhou Min, rummaged through her belongings and pulled out her old clothes from when she was young, putting them on.

While she certainly wasn't as fashionable as Ms. Cheng, Liu Ruyan's mother, she still owned jeans and a leather jacket.

If his dad were to ride a Happiness 125 motorcycle with his mom on the back, they would definitely look like Hong Kong-style celebrities.

After all, his family still has photos. His mother was incredibly beautiful back then. It's just a shame she was born in the wrong era. If she were born in modern times, she could make a living even if she did a live stream.

But how should I put it, ever since he was old enough to understand, he had never seen what his mother looked like when she was young. This was the first time he had ever seen his mother dressed up properly.

Although it can't be restored to factory settings, it's definitely been completely refurbished, no wonder Dad was so excited.

At 5:30 p.m., Lin Mo was sitting in his car making a video call with Liu Ruyan on the side of the road in the industrial park on the outskirts of Nancheng.

"Hehehe~~ So you got kicked out again?"

In the video, Liu Ruyan was laughing so hard she was doubled over, almost laughing herself to death.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo held up the hundred yuan in his hand and said helplessly, "The old man gave me a hundred yuan and asked me to go back to Jiangning to buy him a box of Liqun cigarettes. I feel like he just wanted to get rid of me!"

[Don't feel anything, just say it's okay. So, nowhere to go? Want to come back tonight?]
"The highway shouldn't be congested now, we should be back in two hours," Liu Ruyan said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo shook his head: "Forget it, I'm going to find someone to spend the whole night at an internet cafe!"

Hehe~ Poor thing, here's what I'll do, I'll give you a few hundred more, you go and find an e-sports hotel with your friends. As someone who's been there, let me tell you, it's best not to go back tonight, you need to give the elderly some space.

"When my mom started to change, my dad was even more excited than my uncle. Luckily I wasn't home at the time, otherwise he wouldn't have fared much better than you," Liu Ruyan said with a smile.

Actually, it wasn't just Comrade Liu; Comrade Yuan was the same back then. Fortunately, their children weren't home at the time, so the elderly couple had plenty of time to reminisce about the past.

If the kids are home all the time, the grandpas might be driven to stay in hotels instead!
"An e-sports hotel? That works too. I'll drag one of them down with me later. By the way, when are you coming? My mom was just asking about you. She's planning to gather all the relatives together for dinner when you arrive," Lin Mo asked.

Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan thought for a moment: "How about the fifth day? I'll go visit Auntie on the fifth. As for other relatives, let's not trouble Auntie with anything. I'm just going to visit; we can just have a meal together as family!"

"That's what I was thinking too. By the way, what have you been up to these past two days?" Lin Mo asked.

Upon hearing this, Ruyan in the video tossed her hair aside, propped her chin on one hand, and said smugly, "What, are you checking up on Sister Cha's post?"

"Hmm, my possessiveness kicked in, I'm checking up on you!" Lin Mo laughed.

In response, Liu Ruyan covered her mouth and chuckled: "Hehe~ Then I'll see a lot more people. I spent half the day lying at home on the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, had a small gathering with friends from the villa area on New Year's Eve, visited relatives yesterday, and went to my mother's hometown today. I have to take care of relatives on both sides."

I'll get together with Sister Bai and the others again after the New Year. Oh, by the way, Uncle Yuan and Aunt Jiang came to my house yesterday. They said Yuanyuan's brother is getting engaged in the first month of the lunar calendar, and the date is set for the tenth!

"Wow, this is big!" Lin Mo exclaimed, his eyes wide.

Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan nodded and smiled, "Of course! How about coming back early to join in the fun?"

"Me? Forget it. Engagements are usually family banquets. Who would invite their love rival? Besides, inviting your family is probably just because we have a good relationship, and they're there to witness it," Lin Mo waved his hand and said.

In response, Liu Ruyan laughed and said, "That's true, so my parents can go. I won't go; it would be awkward. But if Yuanyuan invites you back, I might as well go for a stroll."

"Then I'd better stay home quietly. It's not fun to join in this excitement," Lin Mo shook his head.

Indeed, it's inappropriate for him to sing and dance like that when Yuan Hua got engaged. Even a close-up like that is too much!

At most, he'll attend the wedding to celebrate. After all, given his relationship with Miss Yuan's family, he should be able to receive an invitation. You know, his restaurant is currently in business with them.

"By the way, since you're already engaged, you might have to get married on May 1st!" Lin Mo said.

Given the urgency of Comrade Yuan's family situation, it shouldn't be delayed for too long.

"May Day? You're underestimating Uncle Yuan's family's attitude. The wedding is on March 28th, the tenth day of the second lunar month. They started preparing before the new year," Liu Ruyan said, shaking her head.

Hearing this, Lin Mo was taken aback: "No, is it in such a rush?"
From engagement to wedding, it only took a month. Such a short time! Why not just get married directly instead of getting engaged?

The tenth day of the first lunar month is February 26th in the Gregorian calendar. The wedding is on March 28th, which is exactly one month and a few days later. Why bother with an engagement? It would be much better to just get married.

Of course, that's his idea. For wealthy people, even if the time is short, as long as the money is there, there's nothing they can't prepare!
"That won't do. They're all prominent figures in the same circle. Although it's a bit rushed, the engagement ceremony still has to be held. However, my mother privately guessed that the woman is pregnant and has to rush the ceremony. Otherwise, if the pregnancy becomes obvious before the wedding, people will gossip," Liu Ruyan explained.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo thought about it and agreed that it made sense. If there weren't compelling reasons to do this, how could such a big matter be rushed like this!
Meanwhile, at Lin Mo's home, Old Lin personally cooked a sumptuous dinner, even turning off the lights and lighting two candles to create a festive atmosphere.

The elderly couple sat facing each other at the dining table. Old Lin looked at his wife, who had suddenly become lighter, and was so happy that he was almost out of his mind.

This daughter-in-law suddenly looks younger, and she's still the original wife. Who wouldn't be envious?

Moreover, with their troublesome son gone, the two elders felt a sense of relief. Indeed, they were true love, and the child was just an accident.

Feeling the burning gaze from across the table, Zhou Min, the mother, rolled her eyes at him: "What are you looking at? Come on, have a drink, just like when we were young, have a little wine and have some fun!"

Upon hearing this, Comrade Lin quickly poured himself a cup of tiger bone and tiger penis tonic wine and clinked glasses with his wife.

Watching his wife down her beer in one gulp, Old Lin glanced at her face, then at the glass in his hand, gritted his teeth, and said fiercely:

"Old buddy, we're going to fight side by side again!"
