Chapter 332 Visiting the Sick (Happy New Year)

"It's enough to kill one, don't kill any more. Read"

The chicken will be gone after two meals. If it is replaced with eggs, there will be an almost continuous supply. Xu Ma has a steelyard in her heart and understands it!

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Xu Dong responded casually.

Yang Lina didn't take it seriously. The second batch of chickens raised last year were almost grown. There were more than 40 chickens, enough to feed the whole family for a year.

Xu Ma scooped some chicken soup with a spoon and tasted it: "Hey, Nana, did you add ginseng?"

"Let it go, the doctor said that eating ginseng will help you recover faster."

"Oh, there's so much chicken soup and chicken, how can I finish it all by myself?" Xu's mother looked at her grandchildren regretfully.

Dabao immediately raised his chubby hand and said, "Grandma, let me help you eat together."

Erbao and Xiaobao also nodded repeatedly.

The three brothers have been waiting for this moment for a long time!

"You three, don't make trouble. The chicken soup is for grandma to replenish her body. It contains ginseng. Have you forgotten about the nosebleed last time?" Yang Lina threatened.

The triplets shrank back simultaneously.

During the Chinese New Year, out of curiosity, Xiaobao secretly took a sip of his grandpa’s tonic. As a result, his nosebleeds started not long after he drank it, which scared the whole family!

From then on, the three of them were as afraid of ginseng as tigers.

"Don't add ginseng next time, it will easily cause internal heat."

Xu Ma made an excuse casually.

"I know, there's half of the chicken left. Let's add jujube next time!" Yang Lina agreed.

"Jujube is good. Jujube nourishes blood."

Xu Ma nodded with satisfaction. The key is that her grandchildren can also eat jujubes. This is the case with the elderly. They always want to leave good things to their younger generations.

Amidst the cheers of the three Dabao brothers, Xu Ma finally finished the chicken soup. She even ate all the chicken and eggs without wasting any.

"Grandma is so awesome!" Dabao exclaimed.

Xu Dong handed over a towel and asked his mother to wipe the oil from her mouth. After Xu's mother drank the chicken soup, her whole complexion improved a lot.

Yang Lina put away the lunch box smoothly.

"Mom, let's go back first and come back to deliver food in the evening."

After speaking, he waved to the three Dabao brothers.

"Mom, I want to stay with grandma."

Dabao stayed by the bed and refused to leave. Erbao and Xiaobao also nodded. After all, they hadn't seen each other for half a month, and the three brothers were afraid that grandma would disappear again.

Yang Lina immediately said with a straight face: "Grandma needs to take a good rest. She will get better quickly if she rests well. You three, please don't cause trouble here."

"Forget it, let them stay, or just talk to me." Xu's mother waved her hand and persuaded. She also wanted to stay with her grandchildren for a while.

"Mom, you always have difficulty moving and can't keep an eye on the three of them. Don't let anything happen to you." Yang Lina was a little worried. There were so many people coming and going in the hospital that something could easily happen.

Xu Dong took the opportunity to interject: "There is still me, why don't I stay and watch them!"

"That's okay, be sure to watch closely and don't let them run around outside." Yang Lina instructed.

Xu Dong nodded.

After Yang Lina left, several patients immediately gathered around and teased the three Dabao brothers for a while.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Wang Xiujuan came over to visit her old friend with gifts. She had come twice before. Today was the day of surgery, so she made a special trip here again.

"Aunt Wang, why are you here?"

Xu Dong stood up and gave up his stool.

"Old Wang, come and sit quickly." Xu Ma waved to the other party.

"Hello, Grandma Wang!"

The three Dabao brothers greeted obediently.

Wang Xiujuan touched the triplets one by one: "Are you finally willing to bring Dabao and the others out?"

"Every day I'm at home clamoring for milk, and I'm almost knocked unconscious by them. I really have no choice but to take them out." Xu Dong said with a bitter smile.

"How can a child not kiss grandma?"

"That's what you said!" Xu Dong nodded, "Aunt Wang, you talk to my mother, and I'll go out and have a cigarette."

The ward was so boring, and he was just about to go out for some air.

Wang Xiujuan sat down on the stool, took out a large handful of fried peanuts from the bag she brought, and filled the pockets of the three Dabao brothers.

She specially asked someone to exchange peanuts yesterday. Ten pounds of rice were exchanged for three and a half pounds of peanuts. After the peanuts were exchanged, she fried them with her own hands. She kept one pound at home and brought the rest with her.

"Thank you, Grandma Wang."

The triplets sat on the edge of the bed and began to peel peanuts to eat.

Wang Xiujuan looked at her friend and asked, "Old Wang, do you want some?"

"No, I just drank a big bowl of chicken soup, where is the taste?" Xu Ma shook her head.

"Nana killed the chicken today?"

Wang Xiujuan often visits the Siheyuan, so of course she knows about the other party's chicken raising. She entrusted the other party to raise the chickens in her batch of more than 40 chickens, including three pullets.

Their family is currently not short of food, but they are short of space to raise chickens.

Xu Ma sighed subconsciously: "To kill an old hen specifically for laying eggs, young people like them just don't know how to save. It's too wasteful."

Wang Xiujuan immediately spat:

"You're showing off to me, right? You've already eaten all the chicken, but you're still complaining about Nana. I'm not telling you that you are too harsh as a mother-in-law!"

"Why are you so harsh? I just feel bad."

"A filial son and daughter-in-law are not more important than an old hen?"

"I can't explain it to you." Xu Ma said with a guilty conscience.

"If our Zheng Yan were so filial, I would be happy before it was too late. I would never say bad things about others behind their backs." Wang Xiujuan exclaimed, feeling a little jealous at the same time.

Who doesn’t want to drink chicken soup these days?

It's a pity that most people don't have this condition. Let alone chicken soup, chicken feces can't be eaten hot, which is sad to say.

"Don't talk nonsense. When did I say bad things about Nana?" Xu's mother said angrily. The relationship between their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is good!

"Okay, I didn't say anything. Let's get serious. How are you feeling? Does the wound still hurt?"

"It hurts a little, but everything else is fine."

Xu Ma turned her head and leaned close to her friend's ear. She answered very quietly, for fear that her grandchildren would hear her. Don't think that children don't understand anything.

Wang Xiujuan then asked: "When do you plan to be discharged from the hospital?"

"Let's wait a week and see how the recovery is going. I would like to be discharged from the hospital as soon as possible. You said this is recuperation, but why is it not recuperation?" Xu's mother looked helpless.

Wang Xiujuan solemnly reminded: "You are not young now, so you must be cautious, listen to the doctor more, and don't take it for granted, otherwise you will be the one who suffers."

"I know!"

"Have you caught the man who stole the manhole cover?"

Xu's mother shook her head: "I'm sorry, I heard from my third child that the city has conducted several rounds of raids recently, and all the petty thieves have gone into hiding, and no one can be found at all."

"Then how did you handle this matter in the end?"

"The young man who hit me paid half of his medical expenses. I can't blame him entirely for this. At least the young man had a good attitude. Lao Xu and I didn't want to push him too much."

The main reason is that the family is not short of money, and the couple also want to accumulate blessings for their grandchildren, hoping that the children can grow up safely.

ps: First of all, I wish everyone a happy New Year!

It’s the last day of every month again, remember to vote and don’t waste it!
