Shen Yunzhao had two weeks of continuous nightmares. In her dreams, her family members either fell ill, went missing, died, or suffered career setbacks. Every single one of them was unlucky, with n...
"How about this mixed mushroom? Is it delicious?" Shen Fugui deliberately changed the subject.
"You'll know if you try it!"
As Zhou Xiuqin spoke, she helped Shen Fugui scoop a spoonful of mixed mushroom soup and poured it into his bowl.
Shen Fugui quickly said, "Give me a few more spoonfuls! Mushroom soup goes perfectly with rice!"
On top of the white rice is a layer of thick yellow mushroom soup, which is bright in color and extremely tempting.
Shen Fugui stirred it with a spoon to mix the rice and mushroom soup thoroughly.
Take a bite, the rice wrapped in the mushroom soup is soft and smooth, tender and dense, and especially delicious with rice.
Shen Fugui finished half a bowl of rice in one breath, looked up at the mixed mushrooms on the plate, and picked up a piece with chopsticks.
After frying, the caps and stems of most mixed mushrooms are separated.
He carefully identified it and found that what he picked up should be milk mushroom.
This kind of mushroom is creamy yellow in color and looks very nice, but it tastes a bit woody, like eating tree bark. Shen Fugui doesn't like it very much.
He put the milk mushroom into his mouth and took a light bite. Wow, the meat was thick and had a special fragrance. It was a little bit dry, but not too dry. It was still quite delicious.
Shen Fugui found another mushroom stalk, which was very tough and not tasty. He chewed it a few times and swallowed it reluctantly.
“This mixed mushroom is good!”
After finishing three bowls of rice, Shen Fugui lay on the chair, picking his teeth and commenting.
Shen Yunzhao flattered Zhou Xiuqin, "Of course it's good. My mom is such a great cook, and the food she cooks is especially delicious!"
Zhou Xiuqin was very pleased. "I tell you, as long as I put in the effort, the dishes I make will definitely be delicious, no worse than those made by outside chefs. Shen Fugui, from now on, you should eat out less and eat at home more."
At this point, Zhou Xiuqin suddenly said, "Huh?" "You haven't eaten out in seven or eight days?"
Zhou Xiuqin’s dishes are rather light, and her cooking skills are just average.
Shen Fugui is a picky eater. If he eats too much, he won’t eat at home. Every now and then he would invite a few friends to go out for a feast.
Normally, he eats out at least five times a week.
Shen Fugui was stunned for a moment. It was true. He hadn't taken the initiative to ask me out for dinner recently.
Even if his friends asked him out for dinner, he didn't go.
"Hmph, you'd better eat out less! They put all kinds of random things in the food to make it taste better."
Zhou Xiuqin snorted coldly and continued, "And those of your friends, they all treat you like a fool! They say they're treating you to a meal, but after finishing their meal, they wipe their mouths and say, 'Brother Chen, I forgot to bring money today. Pay for my meal this time, and I'll treat you next time!'"
"You're so stupid! You foolishly helped pay. But next time, he treated you and you paid. What kind of treat is that? He's taking advantage of you!"
Speaking of Zhou Xiuqin, she gets very angry. Shen Fugui has been taken advantage of not once or twice, but for several years in a row.
Every time she reminded him to stay away from those bad friends, but Shen Fugui just wouldn't listen and insisted on hanging out with them.
What an idiot!
Shen Yunzhao didn't say anything. In her dream, her father was like this until his death and never changed.
Even though he later developed uremia and had to be very careful about his diet, he would still invite his friends out for a meal from time to time.
Spending money is not the only thing. The key is that food in restaurants has a lot of seasonings, and eating too much increases the burden on the kidneys. Even dialysis three times a week cannot completely remove the impurities. In the end, the burden on the body becomes heavier and the physical condition becomes worse.
Shen Yunzhao calculated that the day when her father would be diagnosed with uremia was getting closer and closer, and said, “Dad, why don’t you take some time to get a physical examination!”
"What physical examination? It's not necessary!"
Shen Fugui was unhappy when he heard that he had to have a physical examination. "I'm in good health. I won't go to the hospital!"
"You're in good health!" Zhou Xiuqin's voice rose. "Have you forgotten what happened last year?"
Last year, Shen Fugui went to the hospital because of difficulty breathing. The examination results showed that his creatinine was over 500, indicating that there was a problem with his kidneys.
After more than ten days of treatment, the creatinine level dropped to over 200.
When he was discharged from the hospital, the doctor repeatedly reminded Shen Fugui to pay attention to his diet and to go for a check-up every three months.
But it has been almost a year and Shen Fugui still hasn't gone for a check-up.
Seeing Shen Fugui remained silent, Shen Yunzhao said, “Dad, I’ll pay for the examination.”
She took out her cell phone and transferred 3,000 yuan to Zhou Xiuqin.
"Mom, take my dad to the hospital for a checkup tomorrow."
"Did you hear that? Your daughter will pay for it, so you don't have to pay a penny!"
Zhou Xiuqin took the money and glared at Shen Fugui fiercely.
"Okay, okay, let's go for a physical examination!" Shen Fugui muttered, but didn't dare to say anything else.
…
After dinner, Shen Yunzhao created a WeChat group called "Zhao Zhao's Mountain Goods Group" without even taking a nap. He also printed out several QR codes for the group and gave one to Shen Fugui.
She went to bed only after doing all this.
When I woke up, the WeChat group chat started ringing. I opened it and saw that seven or eight people had joined the group chat, and there were many @ messages for her.
Ping An: Group leader, are there any more red mushrooms?
[Fuguihuakai: Group leader, do you have any mixed mushrooms left? I'd like to buy 2 jin.]
[Swallow: Group leader, I want to buy 1 jin of Ganoderma lucidum, do you have it?]
Shen Yunzhao quickly edited the message, first apologized, and then told them that all the mountain products were out of stock and would only be available on the weekend. The Ganoderma lucidum was not in regular supply, and he would notify them in the group if it was available.
After she sent the message, the group went quiet, but someone chatted with her privately.
[Bamboo: Group leader, besides red mushrooms, mixed mushrooms, and Ganoderma lucidum, are there any other mountain products?]
Shen Yunzhao asked, "What mountain products do you want? When do you want them?"
Bamboo: "Ginseng, do you have any?"
Shen Yunzhao: "Sorry, there is no ginseng."
Bamboo: "If you have any, please let me know. I want to buy a wild ginseng, preferably one that's over 10 years old."
Shen Yunzhao: "Okay. But you may have to wait a long time, and I'm not sure when I can get ginseng."
Bamboo: "It doesn't matter. It's fine as long as it's there."
After closing the WeChat group, Shen Yunzhao entered the space alone. As for Zhou Xiuqin, she didn't dare to go in for the time being, so she took Yaoyao out to play.
Shen Yunzhao was always worried that she would encounter the big white tiger from last time, but she stayed in the space for nearly half an hour and didn't see the tiger, so she felt relieved.
Half lying on the chair, I put down the bait and began my leisurely fishing time.
Soon, Shen Yunzhao felt the fishing rod moving and caught another fish.
Shen Yunzhao looked towards the water surface and saw another grass carp.
Fortunately, the grass carp was not particularly big, only about seven or eight pounds. She quickly pulled the grass carp up and put it into the basin.
After putting the grass carp away, Shen Yunzhao muttered, "Are there only grass carp in the river? Why do I always catch grass carp?"
