The moment sister Hong said this, the ward instantly fell silent. Sister Hong was a little embarra.s.sed by the silence and could not help but explain again.
Its like this. Miss ruans illness causes people to lose their appet.i.tes. They wont be able to eat all the delicacies. Therefore, Im afraid itll be a little difficult for them to finish all the dishes requested by boss Yuan. Sister Hong said seriously.
Obviously, sister Hong thought Yuan Zhou and Yin ya didnt know about ruan Xiaoqings illness and thus explained it that way.
In this way, he didnt disclose ruan Xiaoqings illness and also kept Yuan Zhous face. It could be said to be very good.
Sister Hong, dont worry. Boss Yuan is different from other people. Ling Hong said first.
Yes. Dont worry, sister Hong. Im looking forward to boss Yuans dishes. Ruan Xiaoqing also whispered.
But miss ruan, you just said that your mouth was bitter and sour. Dont force it. Youre just a little better. Sister Hong said anxiously.
Thats right. When Ling Hong went down to pick up Yuan Zhou and Yin ya, ruan Xiaoqing asked sister Hong to get water for her to gargle her mouth. It was because of the long-term infusion and medicine that her mouth felt bitter and sour.
Sister Hong said this because she was afraid that ruan Xiaoqing would be embarra.s.sed. She couldnt help but feel anxious.
Dont worry. Boss Yuan is different. Ruan Xiaoqing shook her head.
Alright, Ill watch you. Sister Hong looked at Ling Hongs face and then at ruan Xiaoqings determined face. She could only say that.
Alright, then dont drool later, sister Hong. Ruan Xiaoqing joked.
No, I won t. Why would I want to eat your food? Sister Hong shook her head sternly.
Ill raise the table for you. Ling Hong came over immediately and said.
At that time, Yuan Zhou, who had been silent all the way, said,Eat slowly.
After he said that, he handed the food container to Yin ya. Yin ya went up to open the food container and started to put it on the table.
Thats right. Yuan Zhou and Yin ya didnt really care about sister Hongs remarks.
First of all, this was sister Hongs responsibility as a professional nurse. Therefore, she said all this for ruan Xiaoqings own good. Secondly, Yuan Zhou had never considered himself a celebrity. Even if he was a world-cla.s.s celebrity, there would still be people who didnt know him, let alone chefs.
So what was the problem if he didnt recognize him as chef Yuan Zhou?
Sister Hong was a front-line nurse. She often stayed in the ward and took care of critically ill patients. How would she have the time to get to know other people or things?
Therefore, Yuan Zhou didnt really care about that. It was even easier for him to let Yin ya open the lunchbox. This was what they had agreed on before they came here.
The lunchbox that Yuan Zhou took out was the standard lunchbox provided by the system, which was the same as the lunchbox that Yin ya brought to work every day. However, there were no patterns on the lunchbox and it was not as exquisite as Yin ya s.
The lunchbox was reddish-brown in color and looked beautiful and elegant, that was all.
Yin ya opened the lunchbox skillfully. The food was only presented to the public after it was sealed. The largest box was made into a cylindrical soup bowl with clear soup inside. The smaller one was a bowl, which was even smaller than the standard rice bowls in the restaurant, with more than half a bowl of clear porridge inside.
There was also a small plate with red and white jade-like pickled radishes, which were bright and beautiful.
As the food was opened, the fragrance of the food spread out.
This made sister Hong, who was staring at her closely, swallow her saliva. But in an instant, she realized her profession and looked up to observe ruan Xiaoqings expression.
It should be known that there were times when ordinary people would smell something very fragrant, but the patient would feel nauseated. This was not something strange.
However, when sister Hong saw ruan Xiaoqings expression, she was slightly relieved, because ruan Xiaoqing was looking at the food in front of her with antic.i.p.ation.
Its best if you can eat some. How can eating be better than taking medicine? Sister Hong muttered in her heart, but she also observed seriously.
This is stewed chicken with Jiangsu cuisine, rice porridge, and pickled radish. Yuan Zhou gave a simple introduction.
Thank you, boss Yuan, Ruan Xiaoqing said.
Youre welcome. Just remember my rules and finish it. Yuan Zhou said.
Yes, I definitely will. It smells so good. Ruan Xiaoqing nodded.
Eat it. This soup has been boiled for a long time. Its good for nouris.h.i.+ng the body. Yin ya also arranged the bowls and chopsticks neatly and then said.
Thank you, sister Yin ya. Ruan Xiaoqing thanked him again.
Youre welcome. Just get well soon. Yin ya said with a smile.
I will, Ruan Xiaoqing nodded, then slowly reached out her slender hand and placed it on the small table in front of her, ready to pick up the chopsticks.
Miss ruan, why dont I feed you? Sister Hong said.
After all, ruan Xiaoqing had just woken up in the afternoon. She didnt have much strength in her body. Even when she got up, she had to rely on someone to help her up. That was why sister Hong said that.
At the side, Ling Hong just looked at her worriedly. He didnt offer to help, because he knew that ruan Xiaoqing wanted to eat by herself.
No, I can do it myself. As expected, ruan Xiaoqing shook her head and refused.
Alright, then. If theres anything, miss ruan, just tell me. Said sister Hong, still worried.
Yes. Ruan Xiaoqing nodded, then gently picked up the spoon. She held it steadily before scooping a little tea-colored clear soup into her mouth.
When ruan Xiaoqing woke up, she had already gargled several times, but because she had been on the drip for too long, her mouth was sour and bitter.
No matter how much she trusted Yuan Zhou, ruan Xiaoqing had never thought that she would be able to taste the dish on the first bite. After all, she didnt have much appet.i.te when she first smelled the fragrance.
However, she didnt feel nauseous because her long-term illness had damaged her sense of smell and taste. This was something ruan Xiaoqing herself knew.
However, the moment the clear soup entered her mouth, ruan Xiaoqing didnt know what it tasted like, but it washed away the bitter taste in her mouth and made her mouth feel relaxed.
Oh. Ruan Xiaoqing couldnt help but let out a soft hum.
This made sister Hong, who was staring at her closely, extremely nervous. She couldnt help but look at Ling Hong with a reproachful look. She was worried that ruan Xiaoqing wouldnt be able to get used to it.
However, Ling Hong was slightly relieved in his heart because ruan Xiaoqing continued to scoop the soup.
She took another sip of the light brown soup. It was still tasteless, but it made ruan Xiaoqings mouth feel fresher. She felt a little hungry when she smelled the fragrance.
This made ruan Xiaoqing even more eager to scoop up a third mouthful of the clear soup and feed it to her mouth.
It was only this time that ruan Xiaoqing tasted the taste of this stewed chicken.
The color of the soup was light brown, and it tasted extremely light. However, there was a fresh and fresh taste lingering in the mouth. When it was swallowed down the throat, it was extremely smooth. There was no fishy taste at all, but instead, it had a refres.h.i.+ng feeling.
When she looked down, ruan Xiaoqing realized that there was no oil on the surface of the dish. There were only white jade-like jade b.a.l.l.s, an extremely green cabbage core, and a light tea-colored clear soup.
At this time, ruan Xiaoqings appet.i.te began to spread to her brain bit by bit, making her have a desire to eat. Even if it was takeaway, the standard did not fall at all.
I suddenly feel so hungry. Ruan Xiaoqing said softly.
Eat more if youre hungry. Ive asked Dr. Herbert if youre okay with it. Ling Hong held back the excitement in his heart. He first looked at Yuan Zhou gratefully and then said gently.
Yes. Ruan Xiaoqing nodded, then picked up her chopsticks and started eating.
Ling Hong didnt feel at ease until he saw ruan Xiaoqing start to eat. As for sister Hong, she had long been dumbfounded.
This was the first time she had seen a patient with late-stage pancreatic cancer who could eat so happily.
