Chapter 357 Hospital Incident
The jeep was parked outside the door. As soon as Ye Rou got out of the car, she heard a quarrel in the yard.
"Don't even think about it. I want to raise this fish!" Wang Guoping held the bucket and stared at the two people in front of him warily.
Zhou Yuqing and Song Zhishu looked at the fresh mandarin fish in the bucket, their mouths watering with greed.
Song Zhishu wiped his mouth and said seriously, "The meat of mandarin fish is tender and smooth, and the taste is delicious. Just rub some salt, add two scallions and a few slices of ginger, and steam it in boiling water. It is extremely delicious."
The first meal she had after returning to China was steamed mandarin fish made by her mother. Memories flooded back to her mind, and the extremely delicious taste of the fish lingered on her tongue.
Zhou Yuqing disagreed, "Steaming it is too low-level. This fish is wasted. You can ask the mute woman to make it into squirrel mandarin fish. It is sweet and sour and delicious with rice. Tsk, it is a rare delicacy in the world."
When the family was still wealthy, there was an imperial chef who had retired from the palace. He was particularly good at making squirrel mandarin fish, which was sweet and sour and extremely delicious.
"Fish must be steamed to bring out its delicious flavor." Song Zhishu frowned and argued.
Zhou Yuqing snorted, "Any fish can be steamed. There's no skill at all!"
The two people were arguing fiercely, and Wang Guoping, who was holding the wooden barrel, looked more and more ugly.
"That's enough, you two." Wang Guoping complained, "This is the fish I caught. I want to keep it. I can't steam it or make it into squirrel mandarin fish!"
Zhou Yuqing & Song Zhishu: "What!"
"Such a fresh and tender fish, it would be a waste if we don't eat it in time!"
"Yeah, you don't know how to take care of this fish, it would be a waste if it died."
Now the two men united again, surrounding Wang Guoping on the left and right to persuade him.
Wang Guoping was so annoyed by the noise that he was about to leave. He was stopped again. He rolled his eyes and began to dismantle the alliance between the two people.
He put the barrel on the ground, pointed at the fish inside and asked, "Okay, I won't keep this fish anymore. How do you guys eat it?"
“Steamed, of course!”
“Make squirrel mandarin fish!”
The two people spoke in unison, and when they heard each other's words clearly, there was a look of disapproval in their eyes.
The two people, who were over a hundred years old in total, couldn't convince each other about how to eat a fish, so they started arguing again.
Seeing them quarreling, Wang Guoping smiled triumphantly and happily carried the fish to leave.
Zhou Yuqing and Song Zhishu looked at each other anxiously, neither of them willing to give in.
"I think it's better to separate them. Steam half and make the other half into squirrel mandarin fish." Ye Rou interrupted slowly.
The two of them were stunned at the same time, and after a moment's reaction, they nodded at the same time.
After reaching a consensus, the two looked at Wang Guoping, who was about to leave with the wooden barrel, and said, "Leave the fish behind!"
Wang Guoping: “…”
He failed at the last moment and looked at Ye Rou who suddenly appeared with a resentful look.
Ye Rou knew she was in the wrong, so she rolled up her sleeves and said, "I'll cook this fish for everyone."
At the last fish and meat banquet in Dahe Village, only Liu Yutang was present among them. He ate the fish and meat made by Ye Rou, and he could not forget it afterwards. He often mentioned it to the others.
Everyone has been craving it for a long time.
When everyone heard that Ye Rou wanted to cook, they had no objection.
Wang Honghong, who was about to leave, stopped. Under Jiang Ge's gaze, she smiled shamelessly, rolled up her sleeves and said enthusiastically, "Sister-in-law, I'll help you with the fish!"
"No need." Ye Rou waved her hand.
She easily picked up the barrel and headed straight to the kitchen.
The wooden windows on both sides of the kitchen were wide open. Ye Rou didn't ask the mute woman for help. She rolled up her sleeves, grabbed the mandarin fish from the wooden barrel, and smashed it hard on the chopping board.
The people who followed were shocked by this scene.
Be careful, mandarin fish fins are poisonous. Ye Rou wielded the heavy, sharp kitchen knife with great skill, scraping off the scales and gutting the fish...
The technique is neat and clean, dazzling the viewers.
Ye Rou hadn't cooked for a long time. In addition to cooking fish, she also stewed pig's trotters with medicinal food, a dish specially made for Jiang Chen who had a broken arm.
After a while, the kitchen was filled with delicious, sweet and sour aroma.
When the pig's trotter medicinal soup is boiled, the aroma becomes even more intense and tempting, and it penetrates into the nose and makes people feel itchy.
When the food was served and the fish entered their mouths, everyone stopped talking and just started eating.
Jiang Chen's right hand was fractured, and he said he couldn't eat with his right hand.
There was no other way. As the culprit who caused Jiang Chen's injury, Ye Rou could only take on the responsibility of feeding him.
Jiang Chen had the most delicious meal, with the beauty of the red sleeves adding to his fragrance, it was a heavenly experience.
After dinner, Ye Rou went to her master's pharmacy.
As soon as I entered, I could smell the lingering aroma of wine.
After Liu Yutang knew the purpose of his young disciple's visit, he asked her to wait for a moment while he went to look through his master's notes from that year.
Ye Rou followed the smell and first turned over the bricks under the kang. She reached inside and took out a bottle of wine.
When Liu Yutang came back with his notebook, he felt like the sky was falling.
Ye Rou stuffed the wine into her arms without giving Liu Yutang the chance to argue. She looked at the notes and asked, "Are these all the notes, Master?"
Liu Yutang said dejectedly: "Well, I've written it all down here."
Ye Rou took the notes and turned to leave.
Liu Yutang looked at her back and couldn't help but remind her, "Xiao Rou, birth, old age, sickness and death are irreversible. Just follow fate and don't force it."
"Okay." Ye Rou paused slightly.
If she tries her best and still cannot change it, she will have no regrets.
——
After staying up all night, Ye Rou went to the hospital with a thick stack of acupuncture prescriptions.
As soon as she entered the hospital, Ye Rou stopped.
"What's going on?" She stood at the door, not knowing whether to go in or retreat.
In the spacious hall of the hospital, doctors and nurses stood in six rows and seven columns in standard military posture.
If they weren't all wearing white coats, Ye Rou would have thought they were soldiers.
Chen Meng, Sun Xiaoxing, He Shuhui and Yu Xiaomei were also in the team. Chen Meng, who was standing in the front row, saw Ye Rou and blinked desperately to hint to Ye Rou.
Ye Rou didn't understand what it meant and looked confused.
He Shuhui reacted faster. She knew Ye Rou had good hearing, so she said two words almost in a whisper.
“Run!”
Although Ye Rou didn't understand what it meant, she moved subconsciously.
She turned around and left with her bag.
Suddenly, a strange and eerie voice came from behind.
"Doctor Ye, where are you going?"
