Chapter 76 Patient Recipe
After completing the good deed of helping the patient and eating the novel lotus root powder, everyone packed up their things and prepared to go back to their rooms to rest.
Heidi and her housekeeper followed Jiangyou and the others back to the second floor. Jiangyou agreed to provide some hospital meal recipes suitable for anorexia patients for a fee. Naturally, such matters could not be discussed in public.
The recipe purchased at a high price naturally needs to be kept confidential, and in order to come up with a prescription that suits Heidi's physical condition, it is necessary to understand her condition in detail. These private matters have to be discussed quietly in the room.
Jiangyou only knew that the knight had asked for a room, but she had been busy playing downstairs all afternoon and had not gone upstairs yet.
Andre, however, was familiar with the place and led them to the room with the key.
The hostel covers a large area, but there are only three doors on the second floor, and there is a considerable distance between each door. Heidi and her room are on the far left, while Jiangyou and her room are in the middle.
Just as Jiang You was wondering why the doors were so far apart, Andrei had already opened the door: "Come in and discuss this."
Several people filed in, and Jiang You finally realized that this hotel room was not a simple small room as she had imagined, but a comfortable suite.
"This inn is a must-stop on the way to the royal capital. The area is rich in magical energy, often experiencing magical elemental riots and unpredictable weather. When it rains heavily like today, travelers have to find a place to stay," Jericho whispered to Jiangyou. "The second and third floors of this inn are suites for the nobles. The inner floors are their bedrooms, while the smaller rooms outside are for accompanying servants. Downstairs and in the backyard, there are cheaper bunk beds, specifically for ordinary people or servants to squeeze into."
"I see!" Jiang You nodded and took in the furnishings in the house. The layout of the house was very clean and warm. Perhaps it was because he took into account the preferences of the nobles and his own costs and made some compromises.
In the outer room, a few decent French-style wooden-framed velvet sofas were placed around a heavy coffee table. The carvings were a bit rough and the white paint on the wooden parts was a bit mottled, but at a glance, they could still be used to fool people.
Everyone sat down on the sofa, and Jiang You noticed that there was a small couch in the corner, probably where the servants slept.
There was already paper and pen provided by the hotel on the coffee table. Jiangyou picked up the feather pen, dipped it in ink, and used his natural ability as a lich to fluently write down the recipe for yam porridge and the ingredients that could be replaced. He also asked about the cause and effect of Heidi's illness.
When talking about this past, Heidi's expression twisted for a moment, and Jiang You could feel that her thin little body still contained deep trauma and darkness.
Anger, grievance, unwillingness... the huge soul energy is still burning unyieldingly in this body.
Heidi recounted her experience of being broken off and ridiculed in a fragmented manner, and Jiangyou understood. "Well, it's a good thing that you're determined to lose weight, but your method isn't quite right. Weight loss requires dieting, but the wrong diet can lead to more negative consequences: malnutrition, psychological problems, depression, and anorexia... If you want to lose weight happily and healthily, you need a scientific plan."
Heidi: "Science...?"
"The so-called secret to weight loss is simply to control your diet and move your legs. You've achieved the former but neglected the latter. Simply not eating and becoming thin is unhealthy. Your body is lacking nutrition, and if the condition worsens, it could lead to death. If you starve yourself to death for no apparent reason, not only will you fail to prove your strength to those who mock you, but you will only continue to be mocked and ridiculed."
Heidi: “!!” Her fists hardened.
"Look, frail thinness isn't actually beautiful." Jiang You pulled Andrei over, raised his arm, and poked Andrei's muscles with his bony claws. "Look, these muscles are truly beautiful! Strong, tight, full of power, and smooth lines! Thin when dressed, muscular when undressed! This is the healthy beauty you're pursuing!"
Andrei, who was being used as a model, responded: “?”
He watched Little Bones's bone claws poking and touching his muscles, and chose to be a muscle model quietly.
Heidi: “!!”
"Indeed!" Heidi clenched her fists. "Muscles! Healthy beauty! This is what I should strive for!"
"That's right! With muscles, even if those nobles laugh at you, you can teach them a lesson with your fists!" Jiang You said, "Only with strength can you have the right to speak! So, first of all, you need to correct your mindset and redefine the right goals: you need to resume a normal diet and train step by step to make yourself healthy and strong!"
Under the guidance of a series of punches from Jiang You, Heidi was already dizzy. She felt a flame ignite from the dead heart, which was the revengeful desire that had been filled with resentment and grievance for many years. She stretched out her hands and grasped Jiang You's bone claws tightly: "Master You! Please tell me what to do!"
"Diet and exercise. They must go hand in hand," said Jiang You. "Diet simply means consuming a good balance of carbohydrates, protein, and vegetables. Carbohydrates come from rice, noodles, and sugar, while protein comes from meat, eggs, and milk. Beyond these, the human body also requires various trace elements and a small amount of high-quality fats to function healthily. I'll write you a seven-day menu. Your stomach can't handle overly greasy or difficult-to-digest foods right now, so we'll start with a lighter diet and gradually adjust."
Her pen darted across the paper, creating a table in which she would fill out her three daily meals for the week. "Vegetables can be changed according to the season. Blanching, stir-frying, or serving them cold are all great options. If you're unsure how to prepare them, simply cook them and add a little soy sauce and minced garlic. It's a surefire way to prepare them."
"soy sauce?"
Jiangyou smiled and took out a bottle of soy sauce: "This is our specialty, thank you for your patronage."
Housekeeper: “…”
She was speechless for a moment, but still paid for the bottle of soy sauce.
"For carbohydrates, you can eat sweet potatoes, pumpkin, bread, and rice... Oatmeal is also a good choice, but since Heidi is tired of it, let's switch it." Jiang You briefly introduced the method of making rice, and then said: "Later, my brewing workshop will start selling noodles, which are also a good staple food. When you see the flyer with the news of the new arrival, you can send someone to buy it.
"As for meat, I recommend simply marinating it and then steaming, frying, grilling, stir-frying, or braising it." She continued to speak eloquently, but Heidi raised her hand with stars in her eyes. "Wait, wait, I have an idea. I wonder if it's feasible."
