Chapter 234: Pepper, Garlic, and Eggs and Valuable Experience

"Really?"

Zhou Xiaoyan, who was cooking dinner outside the door, asked with surprise after hearing what her daughter said.

"Of course it's true. Meng De just told me that he saw it."

He Shengnan also looked delighted and said happily.

My younger brother from my mother's side is finally going to have a child.

After Wang Mengde finished talking to her just now, she ran straight home and told her mother the news.

As for whether the news was true or not, she had no doubt about it at all. She had unconditional trust in her man's medical skills and abilities.

"Oh! This is great!"

Putting down the spoon in her hand, Zhou Xiaoyan didn't care about the rice cooking in the pot. She wiped her hands on the apron around her waist, then turned around and walked into the house.

At this time, He Shengwen was talking to his wife in the living room. They had just been married for two months and were in love with each other.

"Xiao He, did you not wash your clothes this month?"

Zhou Xiaoyan asked expectantly.

The so-called "washing clothes" is an allusion, meaning that when a woman has her period, because the protective measures are relatively simple, usually only menstrual belts, clothes are easily soiled and need to be washed in time.

I haven’t washed my clothes yet, which means my period hasn’t come yet.

Before getting married, Guo Yuhe had naturally heard such words and understood what her mother-in-law meant.

She had just gotten married and was still relatively shy, so she blushed and whispered, "Mom, I was delayed for a few days this month, so I didn't come today."

"Really? That's great. I guess you are pregnant."

After hearing this, Zhou Xiaoyan said excitedly.

When her daughter told her this, she was still a little skeptical. After all, it was too incredible that her son-in-law could tell that she was pregnant just by looking at her for a few times.

Now, combined with what her daughter-in-law said, she felt that this was definitely true.

I’m going to be a grandmother too!

Thinking of this, the smile on my face grew wider.

"Ah? Mom, I don't feel pregnant."

Guo Yuhe asked with some surprise.

Apart from feeling a little tired and sleepy recently, she did not vomit or feel uncomfortable like the pregnant women I had seen before.

"Haha, it's only been a month, you will feel it later."

Zhou Xiaoyan took her hand and spoke kindly.

She is very satisfied with her daughter-in-law.

Ever since she married into Mr. He's family, she has been rushing to do the housework and is very respectful to him.

Now, I’m pregnant just two months after getting married. This is such a great joy.

"Yuhe, are you pregnant? How come I didn't know?"

Next to him, He Shengwen was also dizzy and asked with a look of surprise.

He's going to be a father.

This speed is too fast, he is not mentally prepared.

"That's not true. It's your brother-in-law who said that. He discovered it as soon as he met her."

So it was my brother-in-law who said that, so it must be correct.

He admires his brother-in-law very much. In his heart, what his brother-in-law says is right.

He Shengwen was in a daze, but Zhou Xiaoyan and Guo Yuhe acted as if he didn't exist. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, together with He Shengnan who came over later, discussed in a low voice the precautions during pregnancy.

In fact, it was mainly taught by two people, and Guo Yuhe memorized it in her mind with some nervousness.

Wang Mengde, on the other hand, was strolling slowly outside the yard with his daughter.

At this time, the He family must be talking about the new daughter-in-law's pregnancy. His identity is a bit embarrassing, so it is better not to join in the fun.

Had a simple dinner at He's house.

Under the moonlight, Wang Mengde rode his bicycle carefully. He Shengnan sat on the back seat, holding his waist with one hand and holding a flashlight in the other hand to illuminate the road ahead.

"Mengde, thank you."

When they were almost at Nanluoguxiang, she suddenly said in a low voice.

"Thank me for what?"

Wang Mengde asked curiously.

He didn't do anything today.

"Nothing, just wanted to thank you."

He Shengnan didn't explain, but just put her face on his broad back.

It's late at night and there aren't many people on the road, so nothing will happen if you do this.

If it was daytime, she wouldn't dare to do such an outrageous thing.

As for why she suddenly said thank you, it was because when she was having dinner at her mother's house tonight, she saw the happy faces of her mother's family and felt touched.

This year, the He family has had many happy events.

The eldest brother, He Shengwen, worked at Gulou Supply and Marketing Cooperative. Because of his outstanding work, he was converted to a regular employee ahead of schedule.

The monthly salary reached more than 30 yuan.

In April, they got married again, and within two months, the new wife became pregnant again.

In addition, the second son, He Shengwu, will be able to start working at a new unit tomorrow, and it’s a good job as a driver for the leader.

In other words, the neighbors in Caochang Hutong don’t know about it yet. Otherwise, the door of Lao He’s house would be broken down by the neighbors, and their ears would be filled with flattering words.

The He family lives a prosperous life, and it's all thanks to the man in the family.

That's why her heart was filled with gratitude.

At the same time, she secretly planned in her heart that she would start preparing to give birth to a few more children for Wang Mengde as soon as she returned.

Zhou Xiaoyan had just told her not to stop at having four children, and that she should at least have two more while she was still young.

Only in this way can we be worthy of the Wang family.

In other words, Wang Mengde didn’t know what they were thinking, otherwise he would have told them that four children were enough.

In a few years, the world will not be suitable for having too many children.

Early the next morning.

He Shengwu came to Yard No. 95 wearing a set of half-new clothes.

This set of clothes was a new set made for him by his sister a few years ago. In recent years, he only wears it twice, during festivals or important days.

At other times, Zhou Xiaoyan pressed him under the box.

Today was his first day going to work, so he took it out and wore it.

"Shengwu, let's not rush. Let's have breakfast together before leaving. I'll take you on my bicycle."

Seeing his brother-in-law looking anxious, Wang Mengde said with a smile.

He and Dai Botao made an appointment that he only needed to be there in the morning on the first day, and he didn't have to go there at work.

"Brother-in-law, I've eaten. Please eat. I'll wait for you."

He Shengwu scratched his head and spoke stiffly, somewhat embarrassedly.

"It's okay. I made a lot of breakfast today. Let's eat some together."

Ran Xiaomei was bringing a bowl to the table and smiled when she heard this.

"Shengwu, go wash your hands and come over to eat some more."

He Shengnan also urged.

She knew that her mother-in-law was not just being polite, so she calculated her brother's share in advance before cooking in the morning.

I ate another steamed bun, a bowl of porridge, and a boiled egg.

He Shengwu stopped eating with a burp.

If he hadn't already eaten at home, he would have eaten two more steamed buns and drank another bowl of porridge.

After a simple packing, Wang Mengde rode his bicycle and took him to Dai Botao's unit.

When they arrived, the guard saw their good clothes and temperament, and asked for Dai Botao by name, so he called him.

Dai Botao jogged all the way to the door.

"Hey, Meng De, you're here, come in quickly."

After registering at the gate, the three people walked in. Behind them, the two security officers looked at each other and saw each other's confusion.

I didn't expect that these two young men would actually be greeted by the leader in person. It seems that they are of important background.

evening.

Coming out of the internal medicine clinic of Guang'anmen Hospital, Wang Mengde's face was full of fatigue.

Today, not only did several patients with butterfly sores come, he also went to the dermatology department for a consultation.

In addition to treating dozens of patients with other difficult and complicated diseases, he, who has always been in good physical condition, also felt a little tired.
What's more important is that the weather is too hot.

After sitting in the clinic for a while, I was sweating all over.

This time was unlike later times. There was no air conditioning turned on for a long time, and there were not even fans.

He could only take advantage of the time when the patients came in and out to fan themselves vigorously with a palm-leaf fan to cool down a little.

I finally got home, and because I had been riding the bike all the way, the sweat on my body was almost dry.

"Meng De, come and eat two pieces of watermelon to cool down."

Ran Xiaomei was squatting beside her door peeling garlic. When she saw her son come back, she hurriedly greeted him.

Yesterday, Dai Botao brought four big watermelons. She ate one and gave one to Lao He's family. In the afternoon, she put the remaining two in a bucket and chilled them with cold water.

Just now, my daughter-in-law, two sons and two grandsons came back and she cut it in half.

"Mom, what are we having for dinner?"

Wang Mengde parked his bicycle outside temporarily, and when he saw the green peppers and two heads of garlic in front of his mother, he asked curiously.

"It's been hot these past few days, and since you guys don't have much of an appetite, I'll make a dish of green peppers, garlic and eggs."

Ran Xiaomei said with a smile.

This dish was actually brought over by Wang Jinghui from Hui Province.

I remember when I was a child, every summer, Wang Tian would wash the green peppers and garlic from the family’s vegetable garden, and then mash them gently with a garlic mortar.

Then add salt and soy sauce to taste.

If you can luxuriously put a boiled egg in it, the taste will be even more appetizing.

Every time this dish is cooked, Wang Jinghui’s appetite is stimulated and he would eat several steamed buns with it.

As a result, other people in the family also fell in love with this dish.

Whenever the weather is hot, Ran Xiaomei does it every few days.

"Have you boiled the eggs? Add some sesame oil in later."

Swallowing his saliva, Wang Mengde suggested.

He originally had no appetite, but when he heard that he was going to make this, his mouth suddenly started to salivate, and he instantly felt like he could eat several steamed buns.

"Don't worry, I boiled two eggs and will put them all in later."

After looking around and finding that there was no one else, Ran Xiaomei said in a low voice.

Although eggs are now sold in grocery stores.

But most people still can't buy it.

Every time we put some goods on the market, they are quickly snatched away by some well-connected people who know about it in advance.

Even if there is a small amount left occasionally, it is bought by internal employees.

There are very few lucky ones who can grab it.

Of course, Wang Mengde's family had no shortage of eggs.

Even during the most difficult times the year before last and last year, we were able to ensure that several children had a boiled egg to eat every day.

"Well, Mom, you should eat the watermelon too, and then we can cook."

"Come in and eat, I've already eaten.

The rice is cooked, and this is the only dish left. Once it’s done, we can eat.”

Ran Xiaomei said with a smile.

After saying that, he continued to peel garlic with his head down.

That night, not only Wang Mengde, but everyone else in the family, including Wang Yuandi and his brother, had a big appetite and ate more than usual.

Of course, a big bowl of eggs with green peppers, garlic and other ingredients was also eaten up.

Since entering 62 years ago.

The weather in Beijing finally returned to normal.

There is no longer the extreme weather like in previous years where it didn't rain for several months.

In early July, the drizzle continued to fall, bringing a hint of coolness to the hot weather.

Guanganmen Hospital.

In an internal medicine clinic.

Wang Mengde is taking Wei Lian's pulse.

Wei Ming stood nearby with a nervous look on his face, not daring to even breathe.

After two months of treatment, the butterfly sores on his sister's face have disappeared by more than half.

At the same time, my physical fitness has also improved significantly.

He no longer looks sickly like before.

However, as long as he didn't get a definite answer from Teacher Wang, he didn't dare to relax at all.

After a few minutes, Wang Mengde let go of his hand, thought for a moment, and then said with a smile:

"Student Wei Ming, your sister is recovering well.

Continue taking the prescription I adjusted seven days ago for another two weeks. Come back and let me take a look after two weeks."

The condition of the little girl in front of me has almost recovered.

He believed that in about a month, he might witness a miracle.

The world's first patient to be cured of butterfly herpes will be born in Guang'anmen Hospital.

"Teacher Wang, my sister, will she be completely well in a while?"

Wei Ming held his sister in his arms and asked expectantly.

After hearing what her brother said, Wei Lian blinked her big eyes and looked at him expectantly.

Since she was a child, few friends were willing to play with her because of her illness and the red marks on her face.

Now, after the treatment of this big brother in front of her, the marks on her face are getting lighter and lighter.

At the same time, I began to feel uneasy, fearing that it was all a dream.

"Haha, classmate Wei Ming, you are also a medical student, you should know that when it comes to medicine, even if you are 100% sure, you can't be too sure.

I can only tell you that Wei Lian's condition is now improving. "

Wang Mengde explained with a smile.

Wang Hao had told him this as early as when he first came into contact with medicine.

Later, Mr. Pu told him many times not to make absolute promises because no one knew how the patient's condition would develop next.

After they left, several more patients suffering from butterfly sores came in with smiles on their faces.

After more than a month of treatment, they all showed obvious improvement.

When the last patient was out.

Wiping the sweat off his head, Li Xiang whispered, "Brother, this is the last one.

I compared everyone's condition today with that a few days ago and found that most people are in better condition, with only one patient whose recovery is not particularly ideal."

"Well, this shows that this kind of disease cannot be cured by just one prescription. It needs to be prescribed based on syndrome differentiation."

Wang Mengde leaned back in his chair and said slowly:
"By the way, you should have written down a lot of what I just said. These are all valuable experiences in treating butterfly sores.

After returning, ask them to copy it and think carefully about it. If there is anything they don’t understand, come and ask me.”
