However, Du Chen’s cry of injustice was of no avail. Everyone’s eyes revealed one thing: “There’s nothing wrong with believing you!”
"Really? Let me explain. Corn is a high-quality carbohydrate that ensures the body's supply of nutrients and energy. Vegetables are all plant fiber and various vitamins, which can increase satiety without making you fat. The plant fiber is also not digested and can promote gastrointestinal motility. Chicken breast has no fat and won't make you fat. Moreover, meat digests slowly and satiety is fast, so you won't be hungry after a while. Tell me if what I say makes sense!"
"That does make some sense!"
Jia Xiaomin was the first to admit that what Du Chen said made sense.
"That must make sense. I'm doing this all for my dad and Uncle Ding's health!"
"You can't eat this stuff every day, right?"
"Don't worry, Mom. I'll make a plan!"
Du Chen patted his chest and made a promise to his mother.
"Du Bin, please stop by the vegetable market later. I'm going to see if there's any corn or chicken breasts for sale. I don't know if there's any corn yet, as it's not harvest time yet."
Ren Surong gave Du Bin some instructions, but she felt a little worried because she didn't know whether she could buy corn.
"Mom, there's no need to go to the market. I've already bought everything and it's in the refrigerator!"
Du Chen suddenly said something that made everyone look at him again. My goodness, when did he start planning this? He had just finished talking, and the other side had already bought the things.
"Then I'll just drive home?"
"Well, let's just go back to the store!"
Back at the eyewear store, Du Chen took his mother and Jia Xiaomin upstairs to look for corn and chicken breast in the refrigerator. Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao joined in the fun and followed them to the second floor.
When Du Chen opened the drawer of the freezer, everyone present, except Du Chen, couldn't help but twitch their lips. They saw that the largest drawer was full of vacuum-packed corn, and next to the corn were small bags of separately packed chicken breasts.
"Chenchen, when did you buy this? I remember this drawer was originally filled with pork and mutton, right? What else was originally in there?"
Ren Surong cooked every day and didn't notice the changes in the refrigerator, but she opened this drawer two or three days ago, and there was no corn and chicken breast inside?
"Yesterday evening. After I told Dad and Uncle Ding to lose weight, I went out to prepare these things. I put the pork and mutton in the refrigerator at home."
"Then why didn't we notice?"
Jia Xiaomin also asked Du Chen curiously.
"Didn't you guys go to the clothing store then? That's when you did."
"Mom, this is not important. The important thing is to cook first. It's almost half past eleven."
Du Bin urged Ren Surong to get up early in the morning and go to the hospital. He had not eaten a single bite and was now hungry.
"Okay, let's do it now. You guys go wait on the first floor."
"By the way, Chenchen, we don't need to eat these things, right?"
Du Bin suddenly asked Du Chen nervously.
"I don't mind if you want to eat it!"
Du Chen grinned and said, "Isn't it easy to eat?"
"No, I'd better just eat normally!"
Du Bin was frightened and quickly waved his hand to refuse. He could not enjoy such a "luxury" package.
It was almost one o'clock in the afternoon when Comrade Lao Du and Lao Ding walked into the eyewear store, panting and sweating profusely.
“Hu…Hu…”
As soon as they entered the optical shop, Lao Du and Lao Ding collapsed on the sofa, panting heavily. Du Chen thoughtfully handed each of them a cup of tea.
Although Du Chen was very considerate, Comrade Lao Du and Lao Ding still gave Du Chen a cold look. If it weren't for Du Chen, the two of them wouldn't be so miserable.
"Lao Du, Lao Ding, come over for dinner!"
Ren Surong called out to the two of them.
"Oh, wife, let's take it easy. I'm too tired to eat now!"
Comrade Lao Du waved his hand and said listlessly. Lao Ding also waved his hand weakly.
"Dad, you guys eat first. It's easy to get fat if you don't eat on time!"
Comrade Lao Du and Lao Ding hesitated after hearing Du Chen's words. It seemed not worthwhile to waste half a day's energy and then gain weight.
"But we really can't eat it. The thought of eating makes me sick."
Lao Ding described his physical discomfort.
"Uncle, don't worry, today's lunch is very light, you guys try it first!"
"Okay then, let's go give it a try!"
Comrade Lao Du stood up with the help of the sofa. He decided to give it a try. In order to prepare for today's examination, he had not eaten since seven o'clock last night.
When we arrived at the dining table on the second floor, Jia Xiaomin was setting out lunch. No one had eaten because they were waiting for Lao Du and Lao Ding.
"Wife, I can't eat anything as soon as I see the food on this table."
Old Ding looked at the fried pork with chili peppers, stewed pork ribs with tofu, and stir-fried beans on the table. Although they were fragrant, they made him feel a little nauseous. Comrade Lao Du also nodded. He had no appetite at all for the things that usually looked delicious.
"Don't worry, this isn't for you to eat. You have a special diet meal!"
"Really? What is it?"
Comrade Lao Du was a little curious and looked directly towards the stove, wanting to know what the two of them were eating.
Ren Surong took out two corns from a pot, and then put a few cauliflowers and a piece of white meat on a plate next to it, and then brought it to the dining table.
"Here, this is yours. One plate per person. Eat quickly!"
