Ma Kaixuan: “…”
So, in Zhang Yaoyao's eyes, he had become the one who was competing with Lu Sinian, the sick patient, for food. But was Lu Sinian really a sick patient? He could probably stand up right now and kill a cow without any problem, right?
Just like that, in Ma Kaixuan's resentful eyes, Zhang Yaoyao quickly put Lu Sinian's hospital meal into the lunch box, without giving Ma Kaixuan a chance to covet it.
After a quick meal, Zhang Yaoyao explained to A Yue some things that needed attention in the store, and asked Sister Yan and others to strengthen the production of group-purchased clothing. Then she hurried out again.
Lu Sinian was lying on the hospital bed. He had already finished all the fluids and was lying in bed bored. He felt sorry for himself because he was a wild boar that couldn't eat fine bran and just couldn't sit still.
He heard the sound of a motorcycle downstairs, followed by a series of brisk footsteps. Lu Sinian immediately lay back on the hospital bed and pretended to be frail again.
When Zhang Yaoyao came in, she saw Lu Sinian lying on the bed with a sad face and a lonely expression, which made people feel distressed. Her heart couldn't help but writhe, and she stepped forward and greeted him.
"Lu Sinian, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. You must be very hungry. I brought you lunch. Come and eat it quickly!"
As he spoke, he opened the lunch boxes in his hands one by one. The richness of the dishes was astonishing. Lu Sinian looked at the dazzling array of food in front of him, and the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up slightly. He thought that the meals for the patients were indeed very rich, but it was a pity that they were too light. He was a person with a strong taste.
Looking at the sumptuous meal in front of him, Lu Sinian replied.
"Fortunately, I'm not very hungry. I haven't done much exercise while lying down, so I haven't exerted much energy. You brought the meal at the perfect time."
Zhang Yaoyao had already picked up the small bowl, filled it with pigeon and ginseng soup for Lu Sinian, and handed it to him.
"Have a bowl of soup first, and I'll serve you some rice!"
I bought this ginseng at a dry goods store. It's not of very good quality, but it's enough to nourish the body.
Lu Sinian looked at the bowl of pigeon and ginseng soup handed to him by Zhang Yaoyao, subconsciously took it and put it on the table, and said to Zhang Yaoyao.
"Zhang Yaoyao, you don't have to take care of me deliberately. My hand is injured, not disabled. I can still move."
As a soldier who had lived in the army for many years, he was used to doing everything by himself. Zhang Yaoyao took care of him wholeheartedly. Although she was very happy, she always felt like a disabled person.
Even though Zhang Yaoyao's care was very thoughtful, she was still not used to being taken care of by others and preferred to do everything herself.
Zhang Yaoyao picked up the bowl and served him a bowl of rice. She glanced at Lu Sinian's hands that were wrapped like rice dumplings and teased him.
"Lu Sinian, it's not that I want to take care of you, but look at your hand, it's been wrapped up like a dumpling by the doctor. If you want to do things on your own and have enough food and clothing, you have to wait until your hand is better before you can do things on your own. I'll take care of you for the next few days."
Lu Sinian: “…”
As they were talking, a bowl of rice had already been served to Lu Sinian. In order to make it easier for Lu Sinian to eat, they also brought him a spoon from home. Then, Zhang Yaoyao stood beside him and started to pick up food for Lu Sinian with chopsticks.
The following scene was a bit like the ancient palace maids serving the Empress Dowager at mealtime.
Lu Sinian was responsible for eating, and Zhang Yaoyao was responsible for serving him the dishes. One of them was very happy to serve him, and she wanted to stuff all the dishes she brought into Lu Sinian's bowl. The other one was eating with her mouth full of oil, and she was afraid that if she ate slowly, the dishes in her bowl would pile up like a mountain.
The patients and their families in the ward were stunned. It seemed that there were people who could take care of patients while they were eating. If they didn't choke to death, they were already considered healthy.
However, one has to admit that Lu Sinian's hospital meals are much better than theirs. Even though they have been hospitalized for so many days, no family member has been willing to spend a large sum of money to buy so many delicious foods for the patients.
I have to say that Lu Sinian is really lucky. He would be willing to accept it even if he choked to death. Who made him eat so many delicacies?
Finally, the meal ended in chaos like a war. Zhang Yaoyao cleaned up the dishes and went outside to wash them. Lu Sinian was full and lay on the bed feeling bloated. He thought to himself that he should tell Zhang Yaoyao to bring less food next time.
If he keeps eating like this for every meal, he will probably become as fat as a ball in a few days.
Zhang Yaoyao is not treating him as a patient, she is clearly treating him like a pig. Not only is she treating him well, but she is also feeding him well. If she continues like this, he will probably be sent to the slaughterhouse in a few days.
So, sometimes lying in a hospital bed and being taken care of by others is both a happy and painful thing.
Just as Lu Sinian was feeling that he was both happy and afraid of the pain of being turned into a pig, his fellow patient couldn't help but sigh.
"Xiao Lu, I really envy you for having such a good cook and a wife who is willing to let you eat. Look at me, I've been in the hospital for a few days. Every day I either eat rice noodles and porridge, and at best, I can drink some meat porridge. Unlike you, you just got hospitalized, and your wife lets you eat delicacies from land and sea. I'm almost envious of you."
The two of them were in the same ward and were quite familiar with each other. When the patient said this, the family members next to him wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into, looking as if they were ashamed of him. However, Lu Sinian smiled helplessly and replied proudly.
"No way! I don't exercise much when I'm in the hospital, and I don't have to eat as much as I do every meal. It's all my fault that my wife is so worried. I can only be treated like a pig by her. Drinking porridge is good. Not only does it keep me in shape, it saves time and doesn't tire my family out!"
Fellow patient: “…”
So, are you saying that it's better for me to drink porridge, or are you saying that your wife treats you well and is willing to let you cook so many delicious dishes, and you are showing off and saying that she treats you like a pig.
The fellow patients were directly depressed by Lu Sinian, but Lu Sinian's mood improved for no reason and he would not give him any explanation. Zhang Yaoyao was not his wife yet, but she might be in the future.
On the other side, Zhang Yaoyao quickly took the lunch box and dishes to the bathroom downstairs. After washing up, she prepared to go back to the room, put down her things, and then went to the doctor's office to see if there were any additional medical instructions?
Then she heard a familiar middle-aged male voice behind her.
"Yaoyao, is that you?"
Zhang Yaoyao paused while washing dishes. The sound sounded strange yet inexplicably familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had heard it before.
Following the sound, she turned around and saw a tall, middle-aged man with gray hair standing not far behind her, looking at her with burning eyes.
The middle-aged man's face was about 70% similar to the face of his father in his memory. Zhang Yaoyao instinctively cried out.
"Uncle, why are you here?"
That’s right, the middle-aged man standing not far behind her was Zhang Yaoyao’s uncle Zhang Ruhai.
