Chapter 607: More


“Son, does your friend still have any health wine?” Li Xuefeng was interrogated by his mother as soon as he got home.
Li Xuefeng shook his head and said, “I don’t know either. Mom, why?”
Mother Li’s condition was obviously much better than a few days ago. Her complexion was ruddy, and from afar, she looked like a different person. She was much younger.
This made Mother Li very happy. When her relatives and friends praised her, she was so happy that she couldn’t close her mouth. They asked her what clinic she had been to.
Mother Li said, “I merely drink the health wine Xuefeng’s friend gave. I drank a cup before going to bed and slept until dawn. When I wake up, I feel so refreshed. These changes of mine are all the effects of drinking the health wine.”
Then, these relatives and friends said at once, “Give us some. We want to try too!”
The proud Mother Li agreed.
Therefore, when she saw her son coming back, she couldn’t wait to ask about the health wine.
Mother Li said, “Son, listen to me. My friends and relatives all fawned on me because I’ve become younger. I promised them that I’d get them the health wine too.”
When Li Xuefeng heard this, he immediately became a little angry and questioned, “Mom, how can you agree? We don’t produce this health wine. It doesn’t belong to our family. How can you agree to it?”
When mother Li saw her son getting angry, she also loudly said, “How can I not agree? If I don’t, I’ll lose so much face! Besides, isn’t it just a few dozens of jars of ordinary health wine? You can just ask your friends for it. At most, we’ll pay for them ourselves.”
Li Xuefeng held his forehead and said, “Mom, last time, I already had to lower my face to ask for two more jars. Do you want me to ask again? And you want a few dozen more jars?”
Mother Li said matter-of-factly, “Son, as I said, we can pay for them. How much could they cost anyway?” The low packaging meant that they were cheap.
“Mom, this isn’t about money,” Li Xuefeng said helplessly. “The problem is, how do you expect me to ask for them?”
Back then, Xiao Lingyu gave him two jars because she needed a favor from him.
At that time, he had also thought that this was an ordinary fruit wine. But he was proven wrong.
The most obvious effect was shown on his father and mother. Their minds had become sharper, and now they looked even younger. Many women pulled Mother Li aside to ask which beauty salon she had visited for a facelift.
Back then, one jar was accidentally broken. His mother then secretly woke up in the night to drink half of the remaining jar.
For the last half, Father Li and Mother Li almost got into a fight.
In order to quell the family war, Li Xuefeng shamelessly called Zeng Yaozu and tried to buy the wine. Xiao Lingyu directly gave him two more jars.
He didn’t think his mother would go around, promising people she’d give them more wines!
Li Xuefeng rubbed his forehead and said weakly, “Mom, I’ll tell you the truth. Although these health wines were given to me by my friends, they gave me the wine because they needed a favor from me. Now that the favor has been done, how do you expect me to ask them for more wine?”
After hearing this, Mother Li frowned and said, “The person actually needed a favor from you? What kind of ignorant nincompoop would give something so ordinary as a gift in exchange for a favor?”
Li Xuefeng, “…” How is the gift ordinary?
“Son, tell that friend of yours to send some more fruit wines. They don’t show any sincerity at all! Get them to give us more!” Mother Li’s eyes lit up as she said excitedly, “Oh, right. Even if the matter is done, they should show gratitude. Yes, that’s right!”
Li Xuefeng, “…”
He collapsed weakly on the sofa.
…
Zeng Yaozu received another call from Li Xuefeng and was speechless. At the same time, he felt slightly helpless. ‘What is the endless begging for stuff?’
They did ask Li Xuefeng was a favor, but the favor was done, and Li Xuefeng did help them.
“What’s wrong?” Xiao Lingyu saw the strange expression on Zeng Yaozu’s face and asked curiously.
Zeng Yaozu said helplessly, “Xuefeng asked me if you still have that health fruit wine. He wants to buy a dozen jars!”
Xiao Lingyu, “…”
She still had them, but there was not much left.
Zeng Yaozu said, “If it’s difficult, then forget it. I’ll tell him.” After all, if there was no more, they couldn’t just produce them.
Xiao Lingyu shook her head and said, “I do have a few more, but they’re not ready yet. He might have to wait for a few days.”
Zeng Yaozu nodded and said, “Okay, I got it. I’ll reply to him now.”
As for whether to give them away or to sell them, it was hard to decide.
This was how favors were. No matter how much you had repaid, it never felt enough.
