"Dr. Li."
Yue Jiuyue was surprised for a moment, then greeted Doctor Li and taught Xiaoman'er to call him "Grandpa Li". Since they had met, she asked about her three sons.
“They only have superficial injuries and will be fine in a few days. If you are worried, I can prescribe some medicine to reduce swelling and relieve pain.”
Doctor Li was just wondering how to start a conversation. He was about to praise the well-behaved little girl Yue Jiuyue was holding when he heard Yue Jiuyue's question, which made him seem preoccupied with appearances.
Patients are the best topic for doctors and their families to talk about!
"Is that so? Then I'll have to trouble Dr. Li!"
Yue Jiuyue quickly expressed her gratitude.
"I'm sorry to have troubled you to make this trip, Dr. Li. My eldest daughter-in-law is preparing lunch. Please stay and have a meal with us. It's just a simple farmhouse meal, so please don't find it too heavy."
Yue Jiuyue had never done anything like inviting guests to dinner before, and she didn't know if it was appropriate to say it like this, so she could only bite the bullet and say whatever came to mind.
"Then, I shall accept your offer without hesitation."
According to Doctor Li's original intention, he would naturally not eat at Yue Jiuyue's house. He wouldn't eat even a simple farm meal, let alone delicacies.
However, he still needed to discuss with the old lady whether he could borrow her balance scooter. If he refused to eat the meal, he would be even more embarrassed to ask to borrow the scooter.
As for the meal, he can simply refuse to charge for the medicine or even the consultation fee; he's not going to take advantage of their family for nothing.
Yue Jiuyue was unaware of what Doctor Li was thinking. Seeing that he had agreed, she called Lin Chaonan and the others out to greet the guests. Since the doctor had said everything was fine, then everything would proceed as usual.
For lunch, Liu served a sweet potato feast, including steamed sweet potatoes, boiled sweet potatoes, roasted sweet potatoes, sweet potato rice, sweet potato pancakes... leaving Yue Jiuyue speechless.
Fortunately, Mrs. Liu also cooked a vegetable and egg soup.
Yue Jiuyue's family eats sweet potatoes every day. Although they still find them delicious, they no longer have the same amazing feeling as before. Of course, they are still grateful. After all, it is rare to be able to fill their stomachs, so they should be grateful to God and their ancestors.
"Mmm, this is a sweet potato! It's really delicious!"
"The sweet potatoes are so sweet, did you add sugar?"
"No? Then can we make syrup from these sweet potatoes?"
"So big! Does each sweet potato plant only produce one sweet potato?"
Why are some big and some small? Is there any reason for this?
...
The three members of the Li family turned into a walking encyclopedia of questions, leaving Yue Jiuyue's family unable to eat.
If there's food, just eat it! Why are there so many problems? You're even more difficult than a county magistrate!
Of course, the three Lin brothers could answer the simple questions, but even Yue Jiuyue didn't know the answers to the difficult ones, so they could only remain silent.
Fortunately, it was the first time Dr. Li and the others had eaten sweet potatoes. Although many of their questions remained unanswered, the sweet potato feast left them very satisfied, with each of them leaving with a full belly.
After seeing off Doctor Li and his group, the three Lin brothers unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
This was the first time they'd ever had such a difficult time eating a meal, and they certainly didn't want to experience it again.
The grandfather and grandson in the carriage, for the first time, were sitting rather ungainly, half-leaning against the side of the carriage. Suddenly, the old man slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "Oh dear!"
"Oh no! The car!"
