Chapter 42 Isn't this the happy life that so many people have been pursuing? (Seeking monthly votes and to continue reading)
Under Lin Guofeng's expectant gaze, Chen Jingle finally took out the so-called top-secret elixir formula.

"By the way, the decoction for this prescription is slightly less effective than the pills. If you need it later, I'll try to get some stronger pills for your friend. But that will be quite expensive, so be prepared."

However, two of the medicinal ingredients were removed to prevent the formula from being leaked.

The impact is minimal; the efficacy is roughly one-fifth that of a medicinal pill, which is sufficient for the average person.

As for elixirs...

If it weren't for Sister Xin's sake and Lin Guofeng's earnest pleas, he wouldn't have considered revealing such things to anyone.

Even basic elixirs are far superior to the biotechnology that ordinary people can access.

"Thanks!"

Lin Guofeng immediately beamed with joy, his attitude one of overwhelming gratitude, wishing he could bow down and proclaim to his godfather how generous he was.

If it really works, then his "friend" can be saved.

Chen Jingle then brought out the sliced ​​mangoes and prepared toothpicks.

Lin Guofeng was preoccupied with the secret recipe Chen Jingle had mentioned and couldn't wait to fly home and try it. He wasn't really in the mood for fruit, but he still politely gave it a try.

After taking the first bite, I was instantly amazed: "This mango is great! What variety is it? Where did you buy it?"

The taste and texture were superb, far surpassing any mango he had ever eaten before, and he didn't know how to describe it for a moment.

It's absolutely delicious!

Before I could even finish the first piece, I quickly used a toothpick to stick a second piece in, and also stuck one in for my daughter.

Chen Jingle said, "It wasn't bought, it was grown at home."

(picture)

really!

Lin Guofeng suddenly realized why it tasted similar to the lychees he had eaten before, giving him a particularly amazing feeling.

He became increasingly curious about Chen Jingle's family: "How come the fruit you grow tastes better than everyone else's?"

"How would I know? Anyway, if there's food, I'll eat it."

Chen Jing chuckled: "But there aren't many mangoes, and a lot of them aren't ripe. I'll get you a few when you leave."

"That's daring!"

Lin Guofeng nodded quickly. He really had no resistance to fruit; there was basically nothing he didn't like to eat.

Lin Yuqing also enjoyed her meal very much.

Children have little resistance to sweets, and Chen Jingle's mangoes are especially fragrant, smooth, and of far superior quality to those bought outside.

Delicious, love it.

However, Lin Guofeng dared not let her eat too much, in case her mother found out and then complained again.

"All you do is eat, eat, eat. Are you even going to eat dinner later?"

My mind automatically conjured up the image of Chen Kexin standing with her hands on her hips, scolding someone.

So Lin Yuqing was only allowed to eat a few pieces, and the rest basically ended up in Lin Guofeng's stomach.

"Sweetie, don't eat too much. You'll have a meal later. If Mommy knew you were full after eating fruit, she'd definitely complain. You don't want to make Mommy angry, do you?"

Lin Yuqing was initially a little upset that her dad was only concerned with eating himself and not giving her any, but upon hearing this, she immediately fell silent.

She could only watch helplessly as her father ate all the mangoes.

Chen Jingle, watching from the side, wanted to laugh.

……

When we get back to my uncle's place...

"Where have you been? What's making you laugh so happily?" Chen Kexin asked when she saw them return.

"secret!"

Lin Guofeng chuckled. If the effects were truly as noticeable as Chen Jingle described, this formula would definitely receive rave reviews!

"And it was done secretly."

Chen Kexin sneered, then suddenly smelled a strong mango aroma. Looking at the corner of her daughter's mouth, which was being held in Chen Jingle's arms, she frowned immediately: "You ate mango?"

"Ahem, I ate at Jingle's house. He even gave me a few to take with me. Let me tell you, they were super delicious, the taste was just as good as lychees!"

Lin Guofeng said in a low voice.

Of course, Chen Jingle didn't forget the others, and brought out two large mangoes as well, cutting them open for everyone to taste.

Chen Kexin's curiosity was piqued, and she couldn't wait to try it out.

As expected, it once again received unanimous praise from everyone.

However, my grandparents felt that mangoes were "damp and hot" in traditional Chinese medicine, and although they tasted good, they shouldn't eat too many. They only ate a few pieces and then refrained from eating them.

Even though my aunt doesn't usually like mangoes, she praised them highly, only eating a few pieces before stopping.

Chen Wenjie wouldn't dwell on such things; he accepts all offers.

He and Chen Kexin ate almost the entire plate of mangoes.

"By the way, I just went to Jingle's house. His kitten is so smart, it makes me really want to have one too. It's a pity I can't keep it at home."

Lin Guofeng sighed and stole a glance at his wife's expression.

Chen Kexin rolled her eyes at him: "There are already several kids in the family who are making a lot of noise. Parents can't even take care of them, let alone have time to raise a cat. Besides, having a cat in the house will inevitably cause some odor, and no one can stand it for long."

Well, Lin Guofeng knew this would be the outcome.

I'm still a little disappointed.

Looking at the cats at my in-laws' house, they didn't have the same intelligence as Chen Jingle's long-haired cat, and they wouldn't even let anyone get close.

The difference is obvious!

You big cats aren't even as smart as those little cats, how did you manage to survive?

Of course, he also knew that very few cats were as intelligent as Chen Jingle's long-haired cat; the vast majority of cats couldn't understand human speech.

Thinking of this, I envy Chen Jingle even more.

No need to go to work, I can eat and drink well every day, sleep until I naturally wake up, there's an orchard and a small vegetable garden next to my house, where I grow all the vegetables I like. I'll also plant some flowers in the yard, keep a cat for company, and have no mortgage or car loan pressure.

Isn't this the happy life that many people have been pursuing?
Suddenly I realize how meaningless my lousy job is!
“You said that after we retire, we can go back to our hometown and grow our own vegetables and fruits. We can just eat well, drink well, sleep well, and do things we are interested in, such as planting some flowers and plants in the yard and raising one or two cats. How happy would that be?”

Lin Guofeng sighed softly.

Chen Kexin, unusually, didn't object. She silently took his hand, feeling the calluses on her husband's hands, and said calmly, "It's not that it's impossible. Although the countryside has many shortcomings compared to the city, it's undoubtedly more comfortable for retirement. Besides, as urbanization progresses, the towns and communities near the countryside will be similar to those in the city, which will be much more convenient."

However, judging from the current situation, we still have to endure almost another 30 years before retirement, which is a bit daunting to think about. With the current workload, whether we can even keep up for 30 years is questionable. Hopefully, we'll still be in good health by then.

Lin Guofeng gently shook his wife's hand, saying, "She's alright. Just pay attention to her diet and rest, and have regular checkups. She should be able to live to 70. My grandparents are over 80 and still alive, and it's the same in your area, which means there's some longevity gene involved."

“Longevity is one thing, but you’re in all sorts of sub-health conditions right now. You need to find a way to exercise more.” Chen Kexin frowned slightly.

Lin Guofeng was recently diagnosed with hyperthyroidism, which is quite a troublesome disease.

When the topic of health and exercise comes up, Lin Guofeng complains, "It's easy to say, but where would I find the time?"

"Time can always be squeezed out. If you don't have time during the week, you can always make time on weekends, right? Besides, I don't believe your boss makes you work overtime every day."

Chen Kexin was particularly dissatisfied with his physical fitness.

He looks quite strong, so how come his stamina is so poor?
It wasn't like this before.

Knowing he was in the wrong, Lin Guofeng dared not say more and could only hope that the prescription Chen Jingle gave him would be effective.

I secretly decided, "I'll go to the pharmacy to get the medicine and prepare it as soon as I get back! I can't wait any longer!"
