Chapter 1091 Slimming Tea Sells Well
Wang Nuannuan flicked Xu Chongyang on the forehead, "You're such a worrywart! Have you forgotten what I told you before? You must tell your mother before you go out to play or do anything!"
Xu Chongyang said with a bitter face, "But I told you, Mom might not let me go!"
"You're so stupid!" Wang Nuannuan rolled her eyes. "I told you we're already on the yacht, and with Sister Meilan and her sisters-in-law. Mom can't let Sister Meilan take the boat back, can she? This way we can go out to sea together! I called your mom and told her, so she won't nag you when you get home tonight! Think about it, if you hadn't called and told her, wouldn't your mom have scolded you?"
Xu Chongyang originally thought he wouldn't mind being nagged when he got back, but now that Wang Nuannuan said so, he wanted to give it a try.
"Okay, call my mom! Tell her you want me to help you go fishing!"
Wang Nuannuan shook her head and chuckled, "You! You've become so petty and scheming now, you're not the honest and simple Chongyang you used to be!"
Xu Chongyang chuckled sheepishly, "It's all thanks to Sister Nuannuan's excellent teaching!"
Wang Nuannuan dialed Zhang Xiufang's number, "Aunt Xiufang, Chongyang and I went out to sea with Sister Meilan! We'll be fishing later, and we'll treat you to seafood!"
Hearing Wang Nuannuan's clear voice, Zhang Xiufang smiled and said, "Okay, keep an eye on him for me, don't let him get naughty! Let Chongyang answer the phone!"
Wang Nuannuan nodded, "I promise I'll keep an eye on things for you! It's Chongyang, Aunt Xiufang's phone number!"
Xu Chongyang answered the phone, "Mom, Sister Nuannuan insists on taking me there, and I can't refuse!"
Zhang Xiufang was so angry she laughed. "This little bastard is just spouting nonsense! If you want to go, then go. I don't mind you going with your sister Meilan and sister Nuannuan! Don't come up with these ridiculous excuses!"
"Hehehe!" Xu Chongyang laughed. "Mom, I really want to go to sea. Please don't be angry! I promise I'll make sure you're safe!"
Zhang Xiufang laughed and scolded, "Alright, now that we're on the yacht, don't cause any trouble for your sister Meilan!"
"Yes, sir!" Xu Chongyang stood at attention and saluted, looking somewhat comical.
After hanging up the phone, Xu Chongyang returned the phone to Wang Nuannuan.
Wang Nuannuan said with a smile, "See? Aunt Xiufang wasn't angry at all! In the future, if you have anything to say, you have to talk to her patiently! That way she can feel at ease letting you go! You kept it from her and she was uneasy, so she started nagging you when you got back."
Xu Chongyang rolled his eyes. "Growing pains!"
Wang Nuannuan reached out and pinched Xu Chongyang's ear. "You're just forcing a new poem to express your sorrow! You've grown up, but are you capable enough to handle everything outside? A mother worries about her child even when he's far away. Aunt Xiufang only has you as her child, so naturally she pays more attention to you. If you want her to mind your own business less, at least act more mature so she doesn't have to worry too much."
Xu Chongyang nodded, "Okay, Sister Nuannuan! Let's go upstairs quickly!"
Because it was a holiday, Liu Meilan was the one driving the boat.
Xu Chongyang was very interested in sailing the ship, so he went to the cockpit and asked all sorts of questions.
Liu Meilan explained everything to him, telling him the function of each button on the control panel, and sometimes even teaching Xu Chongyang how to steer the ship.
Of course, Liu Meilan was right there, ready to take over at any time.
Xu Chongyang was very excited, "Aunt Meilan, it's not difficult to start a boat!"
Liu Meilan smiled and said, "You think the sea is very vast, like being on a road, and you don't have to follow traffic rules, right? But you must not forget that most of the dangers at sea come from underwater reefs and bad weather. Look here, you can't see anything on the surface, but aren't there reefs underneath? If you accidentally hit one, damaging the boat is a minor issue; the real problem is if rescue is not timely, then you'll be left with no one to turn to."
Xu Chongyang's expression was solemn as he watched the yacht navigate around the reef. He let out a long sigh of relief. "That's true. The sea is indeed more dangerous. On land, if something happens, someone will see it very quickly; but it's different at sea. The speed and difficulty of rescue are much greater."
“Yes!” Liu Meilan laughed. “Stand still, I’m going to speed up, let’s go quickly. The less time we spend on the road, the more time we can fish.”
Inside the yacht's cabin.
Tang Ying, Wang Miaoxiang, and Mi Xiaonan were looking out at the sea through the glass.
"It's quite cold outside, but it's much better inside the cabin now," Tang Ying said with a smile. "Where is Meilan taking us?"
Wang Miaoxiang chuckled, "I don't know either, but Meilan is more experienced than us. Wherever she takes us, that's where we go fishing."
Mi Xiaonan said with a smile, "I used to watch my dad fish all the time. He would sit by the river all day and usually only bring back a few small fish. But one time, I saw my dad actually buy a few crucian carp from the market and bring them home. It turned out he hadn't caught any fish and was afraid of being nagged by my mom."
Wang Miaoxiang laughed and said, "You think my grandpa does this kind of thing a lot? He does it quite often! He just wants to go fishing, but he doesn't want his family to say anything. But his family criticizes him not because he fishes, but because he fishes for not just an hour or two, but all day long. When he comes back at night, his back hurts so much that he can't sleep."
Tang Ying listened to her two younger siblings complaining about their family, but her tone was full of sweetness. "That's how old people are. There's an old cadre in our hospital who loves sweets. He says life was too hard before, and now that life is better, he wants to eat something sweet. But now his blood sugar is high, so he can't eat them, but he sneaks some. No matter what his family says, it's no use. Now he can only control it with medication and injections. Sigh, people will do what they want to do, even if they know there will be consequences. They just can't control themselves."
Wang Miaoxiang was slightly taken aback when she heard this. "Are there more and more diabetic patients now?"
Tang Ying nodded, "Quite a few. I observed many people on the island, and many of them were in very good health; there weren't many with high blood sugar. But it's different outside. After the standard of living improves, as people get older, their blood pressure, blood sugar, and blood lipids all start to rise, and they can only rely on medication and injections. Second sister-in-law, do you have any good prescriptions in traditional Chinese medicine?"
Wang Miaoxiang nodded, "Yes, we currently have a series of health products, and we are preparing to develop tea drinks that can lower blood lipids, blood pressure, and blood sugar. They can be brewed with boiling water and drunk. However, this is useful for patients with mild symptoms, while patients with severe symptoms still need to rely on medication."
Tang Ying smiled and said, "Actually, if you pay more attention to your health, you can often lower your blood pressure."
Mi Xiaonan added, "If drinking tea can lower my blood pressure, I'm willing to drink it. Second sister-in-law, those slimming teas you make are really effective."
Tang Ying frowned and looked at Mi Xiaonan, "Xiao Nan, you're not fat, so why are you drinking slimming tea? Actually, being overly thin isn't good for your health. In our doctors' eyes, when patients with the same symptoms undergo surgery, overweight patients often recover faster than thin patients because they have energy to burn for recovery."
