Chapter 3 Millet, Yam and Ginseng Porridge
Sheng Jiu carefully put away the nine bottles of medicine and looked at the genetic nourishing solution next to them.
If sleeping aids are so effective, the nourishing lotion should be effective too, right?
Given my aunt's current condition, I need to be cautious when trying various folk remedies. I probably wouldn't dare take any medicine I've never heard of.
Therefore, direct medication may not be an option.
Sheng Jiu thought for a while and prepared to mix the medicine into the porridge.
I'll see what you think after I see the results.
At 7:10, a van appeared at the restaurant door.
A male employee jumped out of the car, wearing the work clothes of "Shihuiduo Food Company".
He carried a few boxes into the store and handed the tablet to Sheng Jiu: "Please sign for it."
This is the daily ingredient in the novice benefits. In addition to rice, white flour, eggs, ham and other ingredients, there is also a bag of millet and yam.
Seeing the new ingredients, Sheng Jiu's eyes lit up: millet and yam porridge, here it is!
Sheng Jiu carried the things back to the store, and went to the second floor to find the ginseng that his grandfather had treasured. He cut a few roots and put them into the millet and yam porridge.
The sweetness of millet is mixed with the fragrance of yam, and a hint of light and astringent fragrance of ginseng is in between. As the temperature rises, it slowly drifts out.
Smelling the fresh aroma of rice in the air, Sheng Jiu squinted his eyes in satisfaction.
She filled a bowl for herself and put the rest into a thermos, adding a bottle of genetic nourishing solution.
After everything was packed up, Sheng Jiu drove the van to the central hospital.
My aunt is now in the oncology department. Her recovery after the operation was not good and she is still receiving follow-up treatment in the hospital.
When Sheng Jiu went over, his cousin Sheng Siyu was arguing with someone.
The other party didn't want to disturb his mother, so he lowered his voice as much as possible.
But Aunt Sheng, who was arguing with her, didn't care about that. She wanted to raise her voice to the highest level so that the whole hospital could hear it!
Seeing Sheng Jiu coming over, Aunt Sheng stiffened her neck as if she had been given a shot of chicken blood: "Just right, Xiao Jiu is here, I have to tell you, stop meddling in other people's business and take care of your own family."
After saying that, Aunt Sheng came to Sheng Jiu with a smile and stretched out her hand to take the things in her hand.
Sheng Jiu took a step back and asked her politely, "Aunt, is there anything wrong? My aunt is still sick. If you have anything to say, please go out and talk to her."
Aunt Sheng waved her hands impatiently: "Okay, okay, I'm the bad guy, okay? Besides, Siyu, what does this have to do with you? As long as our Xiaojiu agrees, that's fine."
Sheng Jiu didn't show any change in his expression after hearing this. He just asked her calmly, "It has nothing to do with Sister Siyu, but it has something to do with you?"
After being scolded by Sheng Jiu, Aunt Sheng was embarrassed, but she still said with her neck stiff, "Child, I'm doing this for your own good. Look, a little girl like you can run a restaurant? You still need the help of your family. Instead of constantly troubling us, why not give the restaurant directly to your uncle? Your uncle is free recently, and it's not for someone else, it's still in the hands of your family..."
Aunt Sheng wanted to say something else, but Sheng Jiu was too lazy to listen: "One million, including the store and the things, I want cash."
Aunt Sheng yelled subconsciously: "Why don't you go and grab it?"
Sheng Jiu smiled slightly: "I am different from my aunt, I want face."
Aunt Sheng was so angry that her face turned as black as ink.
Sheng Jiu was too lazy to look at her and walked past her towards Sheng Siyu.
Aunt Sheng was unhappy and raised her hand to grab Sheng Jiu, but she dodged it nimbly.
Sheng Jiu didn't want to care about Aunt Sheng's reaction, so he asked in a low voice: "Sister Siyu, how is Auntie?"
Sheng Siyu had been arguing with Aunt Sheng for a long time, but now she couldn't hold it in any longer.
She covered her mouth to control her crying: "The side effects of the medicine are very serious. I tossed and turned all night and couldn't sleep."
Sheng Jiu felt a little sad after hearing this, and raised his hand to point: "I'll go in and take a look."
Sheng Siyu nodded and gave up her seat.
Seeing that Aunt Sheng wanted to follow in, Sheng Siyu asked her with red eyes: "What else do you want to do?"
Aunt Sheng had been repeatedly confronted by two juniors, and her face had long been humiliated. Now she pulled a long face and said, "What's it to you? I found a boyfriend for Xiaojiu, and he's very good. I've already made an appointment with the boy to meet Xiaojiu at the restaurant at noon. As a young man, it's not a bad thing to make more friends..."
Sheng Siyu listened impatiently: "Aunt, don't think we don't know. We didn't tell you about the little things you did when you were young to save each other's face. If you pester Xiaojiu again, we will tear each other apart and no one will be able to live as a human being!"
After Sheng Siyu finished speaking, no matter how ugly Aunt Sheng's expression was, she turned around and went back to the ward.
My aunt, who used to remain calm even when a piece of flesh was cut off from her thigh and blood was flowing, is now haggard and in a mess due to illness.
Sheng Jiu felt distressed, but he had to control his emotions.
She sat by the bed and asked gently, "Auntie, do you have an appetite? What do you want to eat?"
My aunt squinted her eyes and shook her head, not even having the strength to speak.
Seeing her in such pain, Sheng Jiu felt distressed. She gently advised: "You will recover slowly if you don't eat. I brought some porridge here. Can you try a bite, auntie?"
As he spoke, Sheng Jiu opened the thermos, and the sweet aroma of rice wafted out instantly.
There were three patients in the ward, including my aunt.
The other two were in better spirits than the eldest aunt. When they smelled the scent, they leaned over to take a look.
The aunt in the next bed shrugged for a long time, then turned around and whispered to her son, "This millet smells like it's grown in a farmyard. It smells like millet."
The aunt's son didn't know what to say, so he could only look up and smile awkwardly at Sheng Siyu.
My aunt was originally in a bad mood, but when she smelled the fragrance of rice, she couldn't help but look at the thermos.
Seeing that his aunt was interested, Sheng Jiu quickly divided out a small bowl. After letting it cool down a little, he scooped a spoonful and gently fed it to his aunt's mouth.
The closer the distance, the stronger the rice aroma.
In the sweet aroma of rice, you can faintly smell the fragrance of yam and the astringency of ginseng.
The aunt didn't want to make the children worry, but she couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food, so she finally opened her mouth with difficulty.
As soon as it went into my stomach, the warm millet porridge was like a gentle spring breeze in the wheat field, slowly soothing my aunt's aching body and dry soul.
When the aunt came to her senses, she thought she might be confused because of illness.
How could such an illusion arise from just a mouthful of millet porridge?
But I have to admit, it tastes really good.
She originally had no appetite, but now she drank the entire small bowl of porridge mouthful after mouthful.
After drinking it, I still feel a little unsatisfied.
However, Sheng Jiu didn't dare give her any more, fearing that she wouldn't be able to digest it.
There was still quite a bit of food in the thermos. Sheng Jiu closed the lid and put it on the cabinet. He turned to Sheng Siyu and said, "This thermos works pretty well. It should be able to keep food there for half a day. I'll feed some to Auntie at noon."
Seeing that her mother had a good appetite, Sheng Siyu's eyes turned red. She nodded hurriedly and whispered about the weird things that Aunt Sheng had done.
At the end, Sheng Siyu was still worried: "My brother will be here soon, let him take you back."
