Chapter 24 Cooking 2

"Mom, this is a diaper for Xiaohua."

"Show, where did this come from? It's a pity to make diapers with such a new cloth!" Zhou Shuilian touched the brand new diapers with her hand, feeling very distressed.

"This is given by someone else, it's the cafeteria..." Mu Xiu lied. Anyway, Zhou Shuilian couldn't find anyone to confront him.

Although Mu Xiu didn't finish his words, Zhou Shuilian understood. She explained to Mu Xiu with emotion: "Xiu, these are all kind-hearted people, we must remember these kindnesses."

"I understand, mom, you can rest with your sister first, I'll go out to do something." Mu Xiu looked at the mother accompanying her bed No. 2 and was eavesdropping on her mother and daughter's words, and she felt very unhappy, so she simply said nothing.

Zhou Shuilian thought Mu Xiu was going to the cafeteria to help again, so she asked her to go soon.

Mu Xiu turned around to Lu Niandong's ward. Lu Niandong had finished his meal and was sitting by the bed reading the newspaper. When he saw Mu Xiu coming in, he couldn't help but close the newspaper and look up at Mu Xiu.

"Grandpa Lu, that's right. Why are you hospitalized?" Mu Xiu heard Lu Yuan and Lu Niandong before, and he felt vaguely that Lu Niandong seemed to be unable to eat sweets. She guessed that Lu Niandong might have a problem with blood sugar, so she came to ask and asked, and she knew it very well when cooking.

"High blood pressure and diabetes, as I say, these are all minor problems, so the doctor likes to exaggerate it, and it's so fatal to make it impossible to eat it..." Lu Niandong was full of dissatisfaction.

Lu Niandong was hospitalized for treatment because of diabetes and hypertension. July and August are the season when various fruits are ripe. The elderly greedy for sweets, so their blood sugar cannot be controlled and they remain high. At the same time, Lu Niandong is a person who is unrestrained, so it is fine in normal times, but in summer, the blood pressure rises sharply.

"Grandpa Lu, it's better to listen to the doctor. The doctor is also for your own good." Mu Xiu comforted Lu Nian.

"Mu Xiu, how is your sister?" Lu Niandong suddenly remembered why Mu Xiu was in the hospital.

"The doctor said it was almost done."

"That's great, it's really not easy for you guys." Lu Niandong looked at Mu Xiu with some emotion.

"As long as you can save it, everything is worth it, Grandpa Lu, then I'll go back." Mu Xiu found out what he wanted to know, and stood up and said goodbye.

The next day, Mu Xiu woke up very early. At night, Zhou Shuilian insisted on letting Mu Xiu sleep on the bed, while she herself lying on the edge of the bed. Mu Xiu couldn't persuade Zhou Shuilian and had to go to bed.

Mu Xiu quietly got out of bed, looking at Zhou Shuilian who was sleeping soundly on the edge of the bed because she was too tired, and couldn't help but sigh, this woman hadn't had a good life.

Mu Xiu woke Zhou Shuilian up and asked her to go to bed. She closed the door of the ward and walked out of the hospital. She was already familiar with the vegetable market not far from the back door of the hospital.

But when Mu Xiu walked out of the ward, he saw the mother who was accompanying bed No. 2 from afar talking to a man at the entrance of the stairs on the left, and took out a handful of unknown things from his pocket and stuffed them to the man.

Mu Xiu saw that the man was not the father of the child he saw on the first day, and she couldn't help but feel gossip in her heart. However, before she could get closer, she saw the mother who was accompanying bed No. 2 pushing the man and the two of them headed towards the hospital canteen together.

Mu Xiu thought that she had something to do, and Besides, this matter had nothing to do with her, so Mu Xiu walked towards the vegetable market again.

Although the vegetable market in the provincial capital is larger in scale, there are many people. Mu Xiu took a rough look and was lined up in the line to buy fish.

Although Chen Wenhua just entrusted Mu Xiu to cook for her grandfather, Mu Xiu thought of Lu Niandong's kind and kind appearance, she decided to add diet therapy to her diet to help Grandpa Lu treat her condition.

Diabetes and hypertension are rare in this era, but later generations are common geriatric diseases. Mu Xiu's mother-in-law not only has high blood pressure, diabetes, but also has high blood lipids, commonly known as the three highs. Therefore, some dietary precautions, Mu Xiu is familiar with the heart.

Therefore, Mu Xiu plans to make a steamed crucian carp and winter melon soup at noon today, which has the effect of lowering sugar and blood pressure.

Fish is a relatively cheap and nutritious meat dish, but because there are many thorns, the fish will be killed only after the scales. After taking the internal organs, there will be no meat left. Therefore, many people would rather come over to queue up to buy pork in the middle of the night than buy fish.

Mu Xiu quickly bought fish, and she went to buy condiments such as winter melon pulp and some onions, ginger, and garlic.

She was wandering around the vegetable market these two days and found that although the variety of vegetables in the vegetable market is quite complete, there are many dishes and meats, and there are people queuing for a long queue early in the morning every day.

In other words, if one person comes to buy vegetables, maybe he can't get a line of eggs after buying pork, maybe he buys a chicken, and the fresh vegetables there are already sold out.

But this is not a problem for Mu Xiu. After all, there are everything in her space. She comes to the market every day, but she is just afraid that she will take out some things that are not on the market when cooking in the small canteen of the hospital and will make people suspicious.

Mu Xiu took out the food coupons that Chen Wenhua gave her, which was the national food coupon.

The national food coupon is a good thing. Mu Xiu is preparing to accumulate it and use it when he returns to Yingwu Township. Lu Niandong will take out the same thing from the space based on the market price.

The difference between national food coupons and local food coupons: local food coupons are issued by the local government, and are limited to buying grain at the local level, and only for grain. National food coupons are different. National food coupons can buy grain at any place in the country, and not only can you buy grain, but also oil, meat and cloth.

It is said that in the black market, one kilogram of national food coupons can be exchanged for one kilogram of local food coupons of one kilogram of market and two kilograms of local food coupons.

After Mu Xiu walked around the vegetable market, he took all the things he bought today into the space, then covered the small bamboo basket and walked towards the hospital.

The breakfast was made of thin noodles with pork rib soup, sprinkled with scallions and coriander, and then a poached egg. Lu Niandong applauded, while for Zhou Shuilian, Mu Xiu went to the hospital cafeteria to buy a rice porridge and steamed buns, and placed it on the bedside, and waited for Zhou Shuilian to wake up and eat.

After everything was arranged, Mu Xiu arrived at the small cafeteria. She thought about it. The fish she bought in the vegetable market just now appeared in the small bamboo basket, as well as the pulp of winter melon and side dishes, which were used for making lunch for Lu Niandong.

Zhou Shuilian should also increase her nutrition. Now that she has the excuse to help Lu Niandong cook, she can make some meat dishes for Zhou Shuilian. She will make braised pork at noon today, so a piece of pork belly with fat and thinness immediately appeared in the small bamboo basket, which was red and white, and looked very beautiful.
