"Please move a stool and sit down. I'll check your feet." Shen Junyan's first words were still about his concern for Huang Wanzhen's feet.
Huang Wanzhen knew best whether he was okay or not, but seeing how persistent Shen Junyan was, if she didn't check him, she would probably be so worried that she wouldn't be able to eat.
Huang Wanzhen just nodded, and followed Song An who had come to the backyard with her, trotted into the main room, brought out a stool, put it down, and wiped it twice with her sleeve, "Manager, please sit down."
Shen Junyan smiled and praised, "This child is really smart. How old is he? Has he been to school?"
Song An hid behind her mother Song Lin in shame. Song Lin stretched out her hand and protected her. "You are twelve now. Learn some words from me. You won't be blind anymore."
Seeing that the child was shy, Shen Junyan didn't say much, and only nodded at the two of them. Huang Wanzhen had just taken off her shoes and socks, so he half-knelt down and carefully examined her. "Okay, there's nothing wrong. Don't forget to soak your feet in warm water at night."
"Mix the medicine I prescribed for you with water and take it for twenty minutes every day."
"How's your Xingyiquan practice going?" Shen Junyan signaled Huang Wanzhen that it was ready. Huang Wanzhen replied while putting on her shoes and socks, "Very good."
The reason why Huang Wanzhen was able to knock someone down today was all due to the martial arts training she had been doing during this period.
Although he had not been practicing for a long time, his spirit had improved a lot, he was braver, and he had a spirit of moving forward courageously. Huang Wanzhen was very satisfied with this.
"Well, practice well. If your feet hurt, come to the hospital to find me." Shen Junyan's face was full of kindness, and he looked more like Huang Wanzhen's uncle than Dong Yuzhuo.
When the two returned to the shop in front, the police had already left. Xiuqing was leading people to clean up the messy shop, and Song Wenyin was sitting at the table chatting with Chu Yanzhi.
Song Wenyin's face was full of smiles, and she would let out a laugh like a silver bell from time to time. Huang Wanzhen looked at Chu Yanzhi again, but there was no expression on his face. She didn't know what he said to make Song Wenyin so happy.
Huang Wanzhen paused slightly, not knowing whether she should go over.
"Wanzhen, are you okay?" Song Wenyin saw Huang Wanzhen and quickly stood up to ask.
Huang Wanzhen stood up again, walked to the table, nodded to Song Wenyin, and thanked Chu Yanzhi, "Thank you, Doctor Chu, today is all thanks to you."
After that, he took out his pocket watch and looked at it. "It's getting late. Let's go to Dexing Building. The roast duck there is good. We can eat and chat."
Chu Yanzhi stood up and said, "No need, as long as no one is hurt, Jun Yan and I will leave now."
Song Wenyin advised crisply, "Dexing Building is just across the street, just two steps away. Eating there won't take up much time. Besides, you have to eat when you get back!"
Huang Wanzhen nodded in agreement, "Yes, man is made of iron and rice is made of steel. How can we survive without eating? Let's go together."
I don’t know whose words worked, but a few minutes later, the four of them arrived at Dexing Building.
The signature dish here is roast duck. Fat ducks are slaughtered and hung in front of the hall, and customers can pick and roast them as they like.
Huang Wanzhen picked one and said to the waiter, "Steam two bowls of egg custard with duck fat, and make soup with the duck bones."
After sitting down in the private room, they looked at the menu and ordered a few more dishes. Chu Yanzhi ordered the old Beijing style: mustard dumplings, cucumber strips, red and white kidney beans, and tofu shreds.
Song Wenyin felt that roast duck was too greasy, so she ordered a vegetable and tofu soup.
Shen Junyan felt hungry, so he ordered a plate of braised beef and a plate of sesame pancakes.
Huang Wanzhen felt that the amount of food was really not that big, so she picked and chose and ordered three hot dishes: Beijing-style shredded pork with soy sauce, braised liver tips, and stir-fried diced pork.
"Is this enough?" Huang Wanzhen wanted to order another roast duck, but she was afraid that these modern people would think she was vulgar.
"That's enough." Shen Junyan was the first to speak. "Our lunch is large and affordable. It would be a waste if we can't finish it."
Huang Wanzhen looked at Chu Yanzhi and Song Wenyin.
"It's definitely enough for me. I don't eat much." Song Wenyin waved her hands gracefully.
Chu Yanzhi then nodded, "Enough."
Huang Wanzhen then closed the menu and handed it to the waiter, "Let's serve these first. If it's not enough, we can order more."
"Okay, sir, I'll serve you a pot of good tea first. You can drink it first, and the cold dishes will be here soon!" The waiter in a blue cloth gown took the menu and turned to leave the private room with a smile.
Song Wenyin looked at Chu Yanzhi with a smile, "Don't you guys drink? My dad and my brother always order wine when we go to a restaurant."
Chu Yanzhi shook his head and said nothing.
Shen Junyan smiled and said, "We are doctors at John's Hospital and cannot drink alcohol."
Song Wenyin held her cheek with her hand, blinked her eyes, and asked curiously, "Why can't I drink?"
Shen Junyan thought for a moment and carefully explained, "Well, we Western doctors need to perform surgery, and drinking alcohol will hinder the process."
Shen Junyan really wanted to tell the little girl about the harm of drinking, but when he thought about the fact that she was a little girl, telling her about the surgery might scare her.
"Oh! Do you smoke?" Song Wenyin asked.
At this time, the waiter came in with a teapot and teacups. Huang Wanzhen took them quickly and said, "I'll pour them. You go down."
While answering Song Wenyin's questions, Shen Junyan took the tea poured by Huang Wanzhen.
After the cold dishes were served, the roast duck finally arrived.
The waiters in Dexinglou performed a live roast duck slicing show for them. The slices were extremely thin. First, there was a plate with skin. Each slice had skin, oil and meat. This plate was the most delicious. The next plate was all lean meat.
Use a thin, semi-transparent pancake, put sauce, green onion slices, and cucumber strips on it and wrap it. It tastes so delicious when you put it in your mouth.
The four of them ate very quickly, and before all the dishes were served, the two plates of roast duck were empty.
Huang Wanzhen left the private room on the pretext of having something to do, went to the front hall on the first floor, and ordered another one.
Finally, the duck was finished, leaving some sesame cakes and side dishes. Huang Wanzhen paid the bill, sent the two doctors away, and went back to the private room to ask the waiter to pack the food with lotus leaves and oil paper.
Song Wenyin was puzzled, "What are you doing?"
Huang Wanzhen said as a matter of course, "Pack it up and take it back for the staff at Jixiangtang to eat."
Song Wenyin hesitated and said, "Isn't this a bad idea?"
Huang Wanzhen didn't even look up, her hands busying themselves quickly and steadily. "They all cook in the backyard, reluctant to use oil, and eat bland soup all day. I'm sure they'll like it when I bring it back."
"What if you don't like it?" Song Wenyin seemed to be arguing, always feeling that Huang Wanzhen acted differently from them.
"If you don't like it, I'll save it for dinner."
For several days in a row, after school, Song Wenyin would come to Jixiang Hall with Huang Wanzhen to sit.
That day, Song Wenyin and Huang Wanzhen looked at the picture album at Jixiangtang for a while, and then went to Furongju to get a new manicure.
"Do you sell this nail polish remover? I want to buy a bottle."
Huang Wanzhen raised her eyebrows. "Well, I was planning to sell it. The bottles I ordered haven't arrived yet. I'll use other bottles to fill some for you."
