After "eating and drinking enough", Shen An Ning took out his needle bag, and laid out one hundred and eight silver needles of different lengths, shining with silver light, which looked quite scary.
Cao Jingheng swallowed shamefully.
He was very unsure, "Do you have to put so many roots in this first time, wife?"
Shen Anning was really amused by his expression. She touched his chin and said, "What are you thinking about? I dare not do anything to you even if you dare to prick me with so many needles. What kind of serious illness must you have to have so many needles? Too many needles will make you lose your energy. Too much is not enough. Hey, wait a minute, I'll take your pulse."
It is said that being a policeman is a life of hard work. Even Cao Jingheng, who has excellent physical fitness, has to investigate cases outside during the day and return to the police station to work overtime at night. His body cannot bear it for such a long time.
"Your pulse is deep and tense. You must have been overworked recently. Open your mouth so I can see your tongue..."
"Well, although the dark circles aren't obvious, your pulse and tongue can reveal some physical problems. You still need to rest more, okay? Come on, I'll give you a few acupuncture injections to relax you!"
Cao Jingheng lay down on the sofa in the office after hearing this. "It's okay, just go ahead and get the injection. I have thick skin and flesh."
Before she could finish, Shen An Ning covered his eyes, leaned over to his ear and said sinisterly: "Don't worry, all the opportunities to practice in the future are yours, and you will always be the first."
Feeling the man under him tremble twice, Shen Anning smiled triumphantly, little guy!
"Relax, there are two on your head."
There are many acupoints that can relieve fatigue. Baihui acupoint can stimulate the meridians and blood in the head and face. Guanyuan acupoint, Qihai acupoint, and Zusanli acupoint are also important acupoints for nourishing and strengthening the body. There are also Sanyinjiao, Taichong, Taixi, etc.
Shen Anning acupunctured the Baihui and Shenque points on Cao Jingheng. In fact, acupuncture on the feet is more effective. The acupuncture points on the feet run through many nerves and organs of the human body. This is why foot massage has been so popular since ancient times.
However, Shen Anning looked at the man's feet, which looked even bigger in leather shoes. He had been running outside all day long, and the smell must be unpleasant. She should just tie her head and belly button honestly and not embarrass herself.
"Sleep for a while. I'll call you when it's time to remove the needle."
Perhaps it was because of Shen Anning's presence. Smelling the familiar scent on her body, Cao Jingheng completely relaxed and really fell asleep on the sofa. Shen Anning sat at the desk and wrote her class homework. In half an hour, she could almost finish a case summary.
After being pricked by the needle, Cao Jingheng felt that his spirits had indeed improved a lot. He hugged Shen Anning and didn't let her leave. "Wait a little longer. I'll take you home after get off work. Can you call home?"
"Well, okay then. I'll just finish the rest of my homework. My roommate and Jiaman are coming over tomorrow. If you don't have much to do at noon, come over and have lunch with us. Xiaoyue's boyfriend, Wang Jiadong, will be there too. You should also pay attention to what I told you last time."
At half past eight, Cao Jingheng finished his work and drove them to the courtyard. The two of them stayed in the car for a while. Fortunately, there were no street lights at this time and everyone's nightlife was relatively monotonous. After returning home with his swollen mouth covered, Xixi was already lying on her bed and almost asleep.
The little girl heard the voice and watched her enter the house, pouting, "Auntie, why are you back just now? I came here after having dinner with grandpa and grandma. Humph! You are not at home."
Chen An Ning stepped forward and pulled her out of the bed. Seeing her indifferent look, she said, "Can't you get up? I brought back some red bean dumplings... Since Xixi wants to sleep, I'll drink it myself."
"Ah, no, I want to drink red bean Yuanxiao, auntie, come and hug me."
Faced with such a little ancestor, Shen An Ning could only accept her fate, "Okay, I brought a whole lunch box, you eat first, I'll go call my aunt over."
Before she could even lift her foot to go out, Shen Anxuan pushed the door open and came in. "Hey, hey, hey, I heard it. What's delicious?"
The two of them shared a lunch box of red bean dumplings. The red beans were cooked into a paste, and then small dumplings with peanut filling and a little granulated sugar were added. An Xuan and Xixi loved it so much.
After brushing her teeth, Shen Anxuan did not return to her room. The three of them squeezed on Shen Anning's bed. Shen Zixi slept in the middle, pulling one on each side with both hands, "Good night, auntie, good night, little auntie."
Because he had to entertain friends and cook for about twenty people at noon, including his family, Shen Anning woke up at seven o'clock and got up. He rode his bike to the vegetable market for a stroll.
She still had a lot of frozen food on hand and planned to make a big pot of braised food for lunch, which would be delicious and easy to prepare.
Four pounds of pork belly, two chickens, duck wings, duck necks, and duck gizzards, a total of fifteen pounds, four pig's trotters, and when passing by the tofu stall, I bought ten sheets of dried tofu... Two full baskets of meat and vegetables, nearly thirty pounds of things, Shen An Ning's hands were so painful when she carried them to the kitchen.
Mr. and Mrs. Shen are having lunch with their colleagues from school at noon, which is convenient for these young people. Everyone will feel a little uncomfortable with the presence of their elders.
There are a wide variety of seasonings in the kitchen. First, blanch the duck and pig's trotters, separate the two pots into spicy and non-spicy ones, add star anise, soy sauce and rock sugar, and simmer over high heat.
In just half an hour, the overbearing aroma spread to the yard. The few people who had just finished breakfast felt a little greedy when they smelled it. When it was almost cooked, Shen An Ning added a few eggs and some vegetables. A layer of fat floated on the surface. This marinade could probably be used to mix with rice to make two large bowls of food.
At a quarter past nine, Shen Anning saw that the stewed food in the pot was almost done, and there was a lot of food, so she packed two lunch boxes for her parents, which was just right for them to take over and have an extra meal at noon.
When Lin Nan, Xu Hongxia and the others arrived, Shen Anning had already prepared cold dishes, including sugar-coated tomatoes, hot and sour cucumbers, braised beef and crystal pork elbows. When the girls entered the kitchen, they saw a table against the wall filled with delicious food.
"Wow, Sister An Ning, this is so rich, it looks delicious."
"What is this, a duck gizzard?"
"Yeah, I just made these this morning. They come in two flavors: spicy and non-spicy. Since you're here, let's take these plates to the north room first."
Geng Yue was married after all, so she rolled up her sleeves, put on an apron, and started cooking. "I'll help you cut the vegetables, and you cook."
When it was almost time for dinner, Cao Jingheng arrived with his two colleagues and Peng Zhe. When Wang Jiadong saw them, he felt like he had seen his savior. He and An Yu were the only two boys in the room, and they couldn't join in the girls' conversation.
Since it was her friend's first time, Shen Anning brought out her signature dishes: braised pork with tripe, stewed chicken with mushrooms, stir-fried pork with dried tofu, mapo tofu, stewed pork ribs with dried beans and vermicelli, shredded pork with scallions, shredded potatoes, lettuce, black fungus and eggs... They had to put two tables together to barely fit everyone.
