Early the next morning, Xue's father came with rice porridge.
"A little fresh meat is added. It's pork slaughtered early in the morning. It's very sweet."
Cheng Tianyuan was helping Zheng Sanyuan wash his face and hands when he heard the shout and hurriedly opened the door.
Zheng Sanyuan chuckled, "I can already smell the fragrance, and I'm starting to get greedy."
Dad Xue smiled and said: "Before I went home last night, I went to the doctor to ask him what he could give you. The doctor said that fresh and easy-to-digest food is good, and you don't need to drink rice milk and rice cereal all the time."
Cheng Tianyuan boiled a bowl, spooned out some fragrant porridge, slowly cooled it and fed it to Zheng Sanyuan.
Zheng Sanyuan was full of apologies and gratitude, and whispered: "It's all A Yuan who takes care of me, which makes me very embarrassed."
Cheng Tianyuan said: "You are a patient and need care. How can you say that?"
"That's right!" Xue's father smiled and said: "Ayuan is very considerate and careful in his work. When I had a car accident, he took care of me all by himself. I feel relieved about his work. You don't have to feel bad, he is also a junior after all.
, I should help take care of you as an elder."
"Yes." Cheng Tianyuan agreed: "Uncle Zheng is an elder, so he can naturally take care of me."
Zheng Sanyuan smiled happily and quickly ate another half bowl.
Cheng Tianyuan couldn't help but persuade: "Uncle Zheng, don't eat too full at once. You have already eaten a bowl and a half, take a rest now and eat later."
"Yes." Xue's father said: "The doctor said not to eat too much at once, but to eat separately, that - eat smaller meals more frequently. Anyway, there is a thermos to keep warm, so you are not afraid."
Zheng Sanyuan still had some unfinished thoughts and said with a smile: "Then I'll bear with it. Brother Wu, since I ate rice cereal yesterday, I feel stronger and feel better. I seem to have confidence."
Father Xue nodded with satisfaction, "If you can eat, you will recover faster. So, people are like iron, and rice is like steel. Without rice, how can we get better!"
Cheng Tianyuan put away the dishes and chopsticks, scalded them with boiling water, and then went to get two pots of hot water.
"Dad, I have washed the cup in the morning, and you can drink it by just pouring water into it. I have already taken the medicine that Uncle Zheng needs to take, and they are all here. The doctor said to take it half an hour after a meal. When your time is up, get it.
Uncle Zheng eats it.”
"No problem." Father Xue said, "I'll let the water dry first so it won't get too hot for a while."
When Cheng Tianyuan saw his father-in-law coming to take over, he felt relieved and left.
Dad Xue reminded from behind: "Remember to go home and take a rest at noon to catch up on some sleep. You have to come over tonight!"
"It's okay." Cheng Tianyuan explained: "Uncle Zheng and I went to bed at around nine o'clock last night, and stayed up until three or four o'clock, and then slept for more than two hours, which was enough."
Father Xue felt relieved and closed the door.
After Cheng Tianyuan left the hospital, he hurriedly drove home.
It was past seven o'clock in the morning, which was not too late. The two children were still sleeping, and Xue Ling was eating steamed buns and soy milk opposite.
When Liu Ying saw her son coming back, she quickly said: "I've boiled hot water for you. Let's take a bath first. Or should I take a bath after breakfast?"
"The weather is a bit hot, and I'm sweating a lot." Cheng Tianyuan said, "I'm going to wash up and come back to eat."
So, he went back to the house, took a shower and changed clothes.
At this time, someone knocked hard on the bathroom door.
"Mom! Mom!" came the voice of the youngest son from outside.
Cheng Tianyuan quickly opened the door and revealed his face.
Little Yangyang was startled at first, then laughed in surprise, giggling and hugging his father's neck.
"Dad! You're back!"
Cheng Tianyuan picked up his youngest son, patted his back, and said warmly: "Dad just came back. Did you disobey mom last night?"
"No!" Xiao Yangyang replied crisply: "My sister is making trouble, and my mother can't sleep. My brother and I talk to my mother, and my mother is very happy!"
Cheng Tianyuan frowned and kissed his son on the forehead.
"That's good. You are a man, and your brother is also a man. If father is not here, you have to take care of mother in his place, do you understand?"
"I know!" Xiao Yangyang responded.
At this time, the eldest son came over sleepily and muttered: "Dad, what are you arguing about?"
Cheng Tianyuan quickly helped them wash their faces and hands, change out of their pajamas, then each drank a small glass of water and took them next door for breakfast.
Xue Ling had already eaten and was taking care of the children to eat and drink.
Cheng Tianyuan saw a faint green halo under her eyes and guessed that she must not have slept well last night. He couldn't help but ask: "The child bothered you last night? Didn't you sleep well?"
Xue Ling nodded and smiled bitterly: "I was a little noisy last night and didn't fall asleep until very late. Uncle Zheng wasn't feeling uncomfortable last night, was he?"
"No." Cheng Tianyuan explained: "After eating, we watched TV and chatted. Apart from going to the toilet and drinking water, I slept the whole night. I am in good spirits today."
"That's good." Xue Ling said.
The children ate quickly. After one steamed bun each, they drank a bowl of soy milk.
Cheng Muhai looked outside and said, "Half of the square hasn't gotten the sun yet. I'll take the kids down to play for a while. We'll come back after the sun sets."
Xue Ling smiled and said: "You can go shopping on the first and second floors of the mall. There are ventilators everywhere, so it won't be stuffy in the summer. It's quite good to let the children look at some shops and see more people."
"Okay!" Cheng Muhai laughed and said, "I also plan to buy two pairs of comfortable old Imperial cloth shoes and send them to Achang. I will take the children to buy them together. I remember there are several shoe stores on the second floor of the mall."
Xue Ling suddenly remembered and explained: "They are all in the south corner."
"Okay! Let's set off together!" Ran Ran cheered.
The two waved goodbye to their parents and went downstairs with their grandfather.
Liu Ying wiped her hands and said: "I went to the vegetable market to buy some meat and came back. There were a lot of vegetables left at home yesterday, so there is no need to buy them."
"Mom, you don't need too much meat." Cheng Tianyuan explained: "I don't need to come back for lunch."
Xue Ling also said: "Mom, I eat with my mother at the main factory at noon and evening, so you don't have to pay for me."
"Okay." Liu Ying smiled and said, "Then you must remember to eat enough. You are eating alone now and sharing it with three people."
"Hey! I know!" Xue Ling responded.
Liu Ying asked them to close the door, then left with the vegetable basket.
Cheng Tianyuan lowered his voice and told Xue Ling about the Sixth Master introduced by Zheng Sanyuan, and said in a low voice: "Daughter-in-law, I happen to be free in the morning, so I'll go look for it. It's inconvenient for you to hold up your stomach, so you'd better go to the sweater factory."
"Okay." Xue Ling thought for a moment and said, "People like them are very loyal. If he is friends with Uncle Zheng, then he will definitely help."
The two closed the door and set off.
Cheng Tianyuan drove straight to the bus terminal and found tricycles parked in several places outside the station. He didn't know where the people knew "Sixth Master", so he stepped forward to ask where "Sixth Master" was.
A swarthy uncle stared at him and said harshly: "What are you doing to Mr. Liu?! What's wrong?!"
Cheng Tianyuan smiled slightly and explained: "An uncle of mine is a friend of Master Liu. He is ill and is hospitalized. He asked me to come to Master Liu and tell him."
The uncle nodded "Oh!" and pointed to the tree ahead.
"Master Liu is enjoying the shade under the tree with his little starling! You can see it if you go over there!"
Cheng Tianyuan politely thanked him, and then walked slowly towards the sycamore tree beside the road ahead.
