Chapter 444 Li Zhixia
Bai Yangfan looked at Aunt Wang in front of him and gave a reasonable explanation: "That's the hospital I preside over. If we go for a small checkup ourselves, some items can be free.
I know your family doesn't need that little money, but this is my gift to you. We're all neighbors, so we can save when we can and spend when we can. Another plus is that doing it at Chang'an Hospital provides greater confidentiality.
It can be done at the People's Hospital, but there are so many people around, so it's better to keep a low profile on this kind of thing. I'm sure your daughter and son-in-law wouldn't want anyone to know they went to the hospital for this kind of examination."
After listening carefully, Lao Li's daughter-in-law's eyes lit up little by little, and her eyes turned red after listening.
Doctor Bai treated her like one of his own, which was why he was so thoughtful. "Yes, yes, you're absolutely right. We don't need that little money, but we can't stand other people's strange looks.
Especially my daughter. She was very arrogant before she got married. But now she is tortured like neither a human nor a ghost because she can't have children.
When she comes home, she either cries in front of me or loses her temper, swears, and throws things. I'm afraid she'll go crazy if this continues. Doctor Bai! Can you tell me when it's best to go to Chang'an Hospital? I'll do my best to cooperate."
Lu Jingheng glanced at his wife and felt a little unhappy. His wife was busy enough all day long, and she also had to take care of the affairs of the people in the yard. He felt sorry for her.
But when he thought about how Li Zhixia had helped him several times when they were young, he hoped that his wife could help her even if he was unwilling.
Speaking of the granddaughter of the Li family, she was a godlike figure in the compound. Back then, she was young, her parents were sent down to the countryside, and when the older kids bullied her, she would cry and hide from them at first, not fighting back.
Later, one time, Li Zhixia saw him being beaten to the ground. She was so angry that she rolled up her sleeves and beat up several older boys.
He was also encouraged to fight back and not let others bully him. Fearing that he was too timid, he was encouraged to vent his dissatisfaction on those who were beaten and dared not fight back.
Under her coercion, inducement and instigation, he hit someone for the first time. He tasted the pleasure of venting his humiliation and dissatisfaction, and from then on he couldn't stop.
Gradually, he became a bully in the compound. No one dared to bully him anymore, and everyone had to curry favor with him.
In his heart, he has always been grateful to Li Zhixia for the survival rules she taught him. Even if he had to rely on his fists, it could help him avoid being beaten.
"How about 7 o'clock tomorrow night? I'm afraid it'll be too crowded during the day, and we'll have to wait in line for the exam, which will waste time."
Bai Yangfan's suggestion was very good. Old Li's daughter-in-law clasped her hands together and expressed her gratitude: "That's a good idea. It's settled. I'll go back and call my daughter and ask her and her husband to go on time."
After she finished speaking, she stood up and bowed to Bai Yangfan to express her gratitude: "Doctor Bai! I'm not good at speaking and can't say anything nice, so I'll bow to you to express my gratitude."
Lu Jingheng quickly supported his wife and said, "Aunt Wang! Don't bow so early. It's still unclear whether this will work out."
"Jingheng! Regardless of whether it works out or not, your wife cares so much about my Zhixia. Even if it doesn't work out, I appreciate the kindness. Go away, I just want to bow to your wife."
Bai Yangfan also stood up and pulled Old Li's daughter-in-law to him: "Aunt Wang! I have no objection to you bowing to me. Let's save it for the day when your child gives birth to the baby, and then you can bow to me again, okay?"
After hearing her words, the eyes of the daughter-in-law of the old Li family were filled with moisture. She nodded, and nodded again, and calmed down for a while before speaking: "Okay, then Aunt Wang will keep it. When my Zhixia really gives birth to a baby, I will lead the whole family to bow to you."
Old Master Lu laughed heartily: "Hahaha! I think it's fine. When the matter is settled, my granddaughter-in-law will accept the gratitude. That's great. Let's do it."
"Thank you! Then I'll go back first and call Zhixia."
Old Li's daughter-in-law was about to leave, and Su He stood up and saw her out the door.
When I got back, I went into the kitchen to cook. It was my daughter-in-law's first day at home, so I had to make something delicious.
Lu Jingheng also stood up at this moment and said to Bai Yangfan, "Please sit for a while. I'll go clean the fish and you can make some smooth fish fillets for grandpa."
"Well! Go ahead! Slice the fish thinner." Bai Yangfan reminded.
Grandpa Lu watched the interaction between the young couple, and his eyes and eyebrows were all smiling. Seeing that his grandson helped out a lot on weekdays, he didn't hesitate to come back and went straight into the kitchen.
Bai Yangfan realized it later and thought that it was not a good idea to ask Lu Jingheng to do something when he first met the Lu family.
She stole a glance at the old man's face and saw that he didn't look unhappy, so she became content again.
She is not a person who would let herself be wronged. This is how she and Lu Jingheng will live their lives from now on. It would be better to let them know her "true face" as soon as possible.
It can also be regarded as a preventive measure for them.
In the kitchen.
Su He's eyes widened as he watched his son skillfully kill the fish, clean it, chop off the fish head, and slice the fish meat piece by piece.
Wow! When did her son become so capable? Look at the fish slices, they are as thin as book paper.
After slicing, put it in a big bowl and marinate it with ginger, garlic, cooking wine, pepper, MSG, salt, light soy sauce and dark soy sauce.
I put the fish bones and fish heads directly into the pot and started to stew the soup, and asked her if she had any sauerkraut.
Su He was stunned for a moment and replied, "Of course I will. Mom will buy it for you right away."
She finally realized that her son was going to make pickled fish. This dish was really good in such hot weather, both appetizing and delicious.
Seeing his mother hurried out, Lu Jingheng shouted out of the kitchen window: "Mom! Buy me some more chili peppers, the extra spicy kind."
His mother Su He's voice drifted from afar, and the air was tinged with a happy smile: "Got it."
When the fish bone soup turned into a milky white color, Lu Jingheng took out the sweet potato flour and sprinkled it on the fish slices, grabbing it several times along the direction.
The sauerkraut he bought came in a whole bag. He tore open the package, washed it, and then tore it into pieces one by one and put them in a large bowl.
Su He watched from the side, his eyes filled with surprise and a hint of inexplicable joy.
Lu Jingheng didn't notice. Seeing that the fish bone soup was almost done, he quickly called out to Bai Yangfan in the living room, "Wife! It's ready."
"Okay! I'll do it." Bai Yangfan agreed, stood up and walked into the kitchen. He glanced at the soup in the pot and stirred it with a spatula. "Hmm! It's almost done."
Su He quietly retreated to the kitchen door. She really wanted to learn how to make this dish from her daughter-in-law. After learning it, she could make it whenever she wanted to eat it, which was very convenient.
She also discovered a trick: her son could cook, probably because he learned it from his daughter-in-law.
