Chapter 993: It's hard to swallow
He Xin and the others sat down around the table.
Seeing Dean Lu's enthusiastic attitude, he had no choice but to pick up the chopsticks. To tell the truth, they were also really hungry, and they ate a meal of dry food they brought with them on the train, but got off the train. The toss along the way has been hungry for a long time now.
It stands to reason that he was very hungry, looking at the slightly yellowed white rice in front of him, He Xin stubbornly added a chopstick bowl and put it in the bowl.
A sour smell that rushed to her nose made her face turn pale.
What kind of smell is this, the smell of smelly socks that haven't been washed for weeks.
Can this be eaten?
Dr. Zhang: They were also hesitant.
Not to mention two girls, even if they are a few big men, looking at these meals is a little unpalatable.
It's really too different from them.
Dean Lu looked at them and didn't move their chopsticks one by one, thinking that they were polite, and hurriedly said, "You eat, you eat." This sauerkraut is newly pickled this year, I deliberately cut a knife of meat yesterday, you are welcome, hurry up and eat it. ”
Seeing a few people laughing very reluctantly, they thought that they were embarrassed to eat here, so they hurriedly said, "You eat first, I'll go out to see if they have moved the medicine and equipment to the house for you?" If these guys weren't there to watch, they would be very careless, and if they broke things with heavy hands, it would be broken. ”
As soon as Dean Lu walked out of the door, he happened to encounter a light rain.
"Xiaoyu, you stay here, in case the doctor has any requirements, you can help them, but don't go in, or they will eat." I'll be embarrassed. ”
Xiaoyu whispered, "Dad, this is the rice we can only eat during the Chinese New Year, you have eaten it all in one meal now, what will Doctor Bai and Doctor Zhang eat tomorrow?"
The father and daughter deliberately lowered their voices.
But they are used to speaking loudly here, and there is no concealment at all, and the low voice they think can already be heard clearly by Bai Xiao and them.
"It's okay, I'll go to the village today to find a way to get some back. We can't let the doctors from the city eat the same things as us, and they won't be used to eating them, and when the time comes, they will not be able to adapt to the water and soil, and they will fall ill, and the gains will outweigh the losses. ”
"But how can you have money, you just go to the village to change, what shall we exchange?"
Xiaoyu gave her father a blank look, and most of her monthly salary was given to the patients, leaving a small part to meet their daily needs. She herself lives like this with her father, and when she really needs the money urgently, their family is really poor and can't get a penny.
Dean Lu said with a smile.
"You are stupid, what does your father do, I am a doctor, if I go to the village and talk to them, you can still give me credit, and I will give them a few more free medical treatments in the future." ”
Dean Lu's words made Bai Xiao and the others all bow their heads.
It turned out that the food that was already difficult for them to swallow in front of them was something that could only be eaten during the Chinese New Year for Dean and Xiaoyu, and for them, Dean Lu actually had to go to the village to get something on credit.
Bai Xiao took the chopsticks and added a chopsticks of sauerkraut and put it on the white rice, and put it into his mouth in three or eight times.
This white rice is chewed and exudes a musty smell of stale rice.
No wonder the yellowing, the climate here is humid, these rice do not know how long it has been preserved, it has been damp and a little moldy.
Plus that weird sauerkraut taste.
It's really challenging their palate.
watched Bai Xiao bury his head and eat.
The four of them also ate hard.
But they didn't go to the sauerkraut and ate the white rice like that, it was really the taste of sauerkraut, and it really made people vomit.
A meal is eaten quietly.
This time, the five of them understood that this year was definitely a challenge for them, and if they ate something like this at once, they probably wouldn't last long.
Bai Xiao also shook his head, this is just the tip of the iceberg.
She could already see from the window here that the sun had risen outside.
It takes a moment to really see the surroundings, including people, to really understand where they have come.
This time is really a challenge for her, although she is also a person who has suffered hardships, but since her rebirth, she has changed too much.
The hardest thing in this life is just the days on the front line, eating compressed biscuits every day.
But it was also better than the current brown rice.
It seems that this is the hardest beginning for them.
After eating, Xiaoyu was originally enthusiastic, and she had to serve them a second bowl. Seeing that they didn't touch the meat and vegetables in the pot at all, some complained about them.
I thought that these doctors probably felt embarrassed, so they deliberately kept all these good things.
You must know that under the conditions of their family, there is a meal of this sauerkraut stew, which can only be eaten by their family during the New Year.
However, these doctors really can't eat enough, she wants to serve them a second bowl, and these people can't let them live or die.
If you were to be yourself, you would be able to eat three bowls by yourself.
The people of this city eat as little as chickens.
After eating, Bai Xiao had to follow Xiaoyu to take her to familiarize herself with the environment, and didn't go to rest, although she was physically tired, she didn't want her biological clock to be broken, she still did something during the day, and then had a good rest at night, anyway, she was still young, and she didn't sleep this day.
He Xin saw that Bai Xiao didn't sleep, and she was embarrassed to sleep, so she had to follow Bai Xiao and Xiaoyu everywhere to take a look.
But Dr. Zhang really couldn't stand it, his age was there, the bumpy road, coupled with the hard walking, he was already tired and couldn't stand it.
This time they went to the first floor, and they saw it clearly.
In their minds, this bamboo building is probably the most luxurious place in the building here.
Where they are now, surrounded by mountains, is more like a basin.
Although it is said that it is a town, but looking at the dilapidated houses around, the two of them just felt that the bamboo building they lived in was relatively simple, and now they know that compared with the surrounding houses, they simply lived in a luxury hotel.
The pedestrians on the street are really not too much to describe as ragged.
Even if you are in rags and have patches on your body, many times you can see your elbows exposed, shoes on your feet and thumbs exposed, greeting people.
Probably because of the perennial wind and rain, and because of the hard work, everyone's complexion is jet black.
Like a resident returning from Africa.
Every resident who saw them was curious and envious.
Everyone who saw them couldn't take their eyes off, which made Bai Xiao and He Xin a little embarrassed, and the two of them were now like tigers in a cage in a zoo.
I met a lot of people on the road, and they all greeted Xiaoyu, this one stuffed a handful of green vegetables, and that one stuffed some wild fruits, to put it bluntly, this town is also a street, and you can go to the end in ten minutes.
Even the town hall is nothing more than a simple house with a sign hanging outside the door.
If Bai Xiao didn't know that this was a township hospital, he would probably think that this was just a village.
