Siheyuan: Steel Mill Engineer

Chapter 174 Food
Yang Zhenyu was the last one to go out. After locking the door, the three of them hurried to the central courtyard.

This is one of the advantages of living in a slum: if one side is in trouble, there will be support from all sides.

Especially during this period, people still maintained their basic simplicity and were not poisoned by the so-called "advanced ideas" from abroad, nor were they poisoned by the so-called experts.

When our neighbors are in trouble, we provide some help to the best of our ability.

After a while, the neighbors who heard the noise gathered in the middle courtyard.

"Make way, make way, the doctor is here."

Someone shouted, and the people gathered at the door of Qin Huairu's house quickly made way for them.

Everyone in the compound knows that Zhou Qianqian is the factory's doctor, and her medical skills are quite good.

"What's going on?" Zhou Qianqian saw Banggeng and Sha Meifeng after entering the house.

At this time, Qin Huairu was already lying on the bed. It was obvious that it was Sha Meifeng and Bang Geng who carried her there.

"Maybe he has a fever. His forehead feels very hot. Come and take a look." Sha Meifeng said as she made way.

Zhou Qianqian was not polite either. She sat on the edge of the bed and reached out to touch Qin Huairu's forehead. It was indeed very hot. Then she touched Qin Huairu's wrist. She needed to take her pulse to make a preliminary judgment.

"The fever caused by wind-heat cold is not a big problem, but if you have a fever now, it is best to get an injection, which will reduce the fever faster and make you get better faster." Zhou Qianqian said.

"Banggeng, I'll write a prescription. You go to the factory's infirmary to get the medicine. There's someone on duty at night." Zhou Qianqian said to Banggeng.

"Hey, thanks, auntie!" Banggeng immediately agreed.

Zhou Qianqian did not waste any time. She asked for a notebook and directly wrote a prescription and gave it to Banggeng.

"Xiaodang, you stay at home and take care of our mother. I'm going to the factory." After saying that, Banggeng ran out.

"Why are you running so fast? Do you have money?" He Yuzhu shouted.

"Hehe, silly uncle, I have no money." Banggeng stood there in a daze for a moment, then grinned awkwardly.

"Hey kid, take it and go quickly." He Yuzhu gave Banggeng a dollar and said.

"Well, I'll return it to you when my mother wakes up." Bang Geng said as he ran away.

"This kid!" He Yuzhu shook his head.

In fact, He Yuzhu has always liked Banggeng, and he thinks he is a smart child.

Of course, since nothing has been plotted against me, there is no such selfless dedication. I can only give some help to the best of my ability.

Bang Geng was familiar with going to the steel mill. He came back in a short while and brought what Zhou Qianqian needed.

"Auntie, look, the uncle in the infirmary asked me to bring this over." Banggeng said as he put the medicine box on the bed.

"It would be great if you could bring this over. It would be more convenient." Zhou Qianqian didn't expect Banggeng to bring the first aid kit.

He skillfully opened the medicine box and took out various instruments and placed them on the table.

"Men, please get out. I need to get an injection." Zhou Qianqian said.

The men had no choice but to go out with Bang Geng. After all, the woman was going to get an injection, and they couldn't just stand there and watch her take off her pants, right?
Although they all wanted to, how could they show it in front of so many people?

Nowadays, there are not so many requirements for injections. There are no disposable needles. Doctors boil them in a pressure cooker and disinfect them with alcohol before using them on patients.

Soon, Zhou Qianqian finished giving Qin Huairu the injection, then called Bang Geng in and gave him some precautions. "Did you remember everything I told you?" Zhou Qianqian asked.

"I remember." Banggeng nodded repeatedly.

"Okay, go get some water and wipe your mother's hands and feet." Zhou Qianqian said after packing up the medicine box.

"Hey, thank you, auntie." Banggeng was very well-behaved at this time.

"Take good care of your mother and two younger sisters." Zhou Qianqian said and left with the medicine box on her back.

"Okay, okay, everyone, please go away. Those who need to eat should go back and eat." Yi Zhonghai asked everyone to go away.

People who needed to go home to eat went to eat, and those who needed to cook went to cook. Anyway, there was no one in the Central Courtyard.

However, Yang Zhenyu and the others still had to wait for their meal, because the robes were not so easy to make. Although the robes had been processed, it would still take time to cook them again.

So, by the time He Yuzhu finished cooking, it was already around nine o'clock in the evening.

"Brother Zhuzi, your cooking skills are amazing." Smelling the fragrance, Yang Zhenyu couldn't help but praise him.

"Haha, that's right. I don't have any other skills, so I can only study cooking." He Yuzhu laughed proudly.

"Shazhu, pack up a portion for Qin Huairu and the others later. They probably haven't eaten yet." Yi Zhonghai said.

"Oh, I understand." He Yuzhu nodded.

Today's main dish is pork trotter, which has been processed into several delicious dishes through various techniques. There are also some other dishes, all prepared by He Yuzhu, and the staple food is the steamed buns made of two-grain flour prepared by an aunt.

The remaining robe legs were processed again by He Yuzhu and pickled.

He Yuzhu came to Qin Huairu's house with a few steamed buns and a bowl of vegetables. Qin Huairu had already woken up at this time and was forcing herself to cook for the children.

"Sister Qin, my uncle asked me to bring you some steamed buns. Don't let the child starve." He Yuzhu said as he put the food on the table.

"This……"

"Thank you, thank you..." Qin Huairu said as tears fell.

Today he felt extremely wronged. Not only did he have a fever, he also fainted, and his three children were hungry.

However, I never expected that Yi Zhonghai would ask Sha Zhu to deliver the food. It would be a lie to say that I was not touched by this kindness.

"Okay, Sister Qin, you can take care of the children first. It's time for us to eat too." He Yuzhu waved his hand and said.

Now the main factors of disharmony in the compound, Jia Zhang and Xu Damao, have been sent out of the compound.

Therefore, the compound has become relatively harmonious. At least when something happens, there is no more sarcasm or ridicule.

"Xixi, is this your first time eating roe deer meat?" Yang Zhenyu asked.

"Well, I've only heard before that roe deer meat is delicious, but I've never eaten it. Today I finally got to taste it." Zhou Qianqian nodded repeatedly.

"I did eat this when I was young, but after I moved to the city, I haven't eaten it for many years." Yi Zhonghai said with nostalgia.

"Don't even mention you guys. Even a cook like me rarely gets to eat this thing, let alone Yu Shui." He Yuzhu also said.
