After the canister treatment, it was already early in the morning, and the night by the river was unusually quiet, and you could hear the sound of raindrops falling on the cobblestone pavement and the soft sound of ripples on the water.

I was arranged to rest in the guest bedroom, and before saying goodbye, in order to ease the awkward atmosphere, I randomly prescribed a medical order for dietary therapy: "In terms of diet, it is recommended to drink more red bean and barley porridge." If the work pressure is high, the heart qi is deficient, the diet is irregular, the amount of exercise is not enough, and the spleen is deficient and damp, then the best curative effect is barley and red beans. It can not only dispel dampness, but also strengthen the spleen and stomach, and also replenish the heart. ”

The other party was about to turn around, but when he heard my doctor's advice on dietary therapy, he leaned against the door of the guest bedroom and asked, "Replenish your heart?"

When asked like this, I also felt that these two words were somewhat ambiguous: "Barley, listed as the top grade in the "Shennong's Materia Medica", it can cure dampness, benefit the stomach and intestines, eliminate edema, and strengthen the spleen and stomach. What about the red beans, clear heat, detoxify and nourish the skin, take it for a long time to lose weight and benefit qi, but also because it is red, red into the heart, therefore... Therefore, it can also replenish the heart. ”

Seeing that the other party was silent, I paused and continued: "The method is also very simple, wash and soak the barley and red beans for one night. Put all the ingredients into the pot, add water and bring to a boil over high heat, change to low heat and cook until the barley is cooked, and add some rock sugar or brown sugar when drinking. ”

The other man looked at me noncommittally and then turned away.

Maybe it was so engaged in the conversation that I didn't get a response, and I was a little discouraged and lost.

I closed the door, lay on the bed, and looked into the unfamiliar room, feeling that everything that had just happened was a little strange.

Tossed until the middle of the night, I didn't know who the other party was, was the surname Meng? I just patronized the coveted man, and I didn't find out my personal information, and I was so embarrassed to lie in this guest bedroom. He didn't seem interested in understanding who I was, and complained that I was too "simple" in appearance.

Thinking that I would have to go to work tomorrow, I set the alarm on my phone and forced myself to fall asleep.

It may be because of the unfamiliar and unaccustomed sleeping environment, plus I have a bit of a problem with the bed.

I didn't sleep well that night, and I woke up in a daze, and fell asleep again and again, and the quality of sleep was relatively poor.

In the morning, I didn't wait for the alarm clock to remember, and I woke up in a state of confusion.

I'm very tired, I'm the one who needs TCM physiotherapy.

Quickly cleaned himself up, and was about to step out of the door, but he hesitated for a while, just left, will he see him again in the future?

I pulled out a post-it note from my bag, left a phone number, and pasted it on the mirror of the dresser so that he could easily find out.

When I went downstairs, I was really frightened.

There was someone in the house last night, and we weren't alone in the same room.

I saw that the old aunt with a slightly chubby and short hair was cleaning the hall. I kind of understand why he only turned on a five-colored glass floor lamp last night, and I guess he didn't want to wake up the others in the room.

The old aunt seemed to know my arrival and offered to greet me, sit down at the table, and use breakfast.

The breakfast was very rich, and when I saw that there was red bean barley porridge in the breakfast, I couldn't help but "poof. Poof. "Laugh out loud.

I was the only one at the table, and I estimated that he had already gone out, because of the embarrassment of his identity, and I was embarrassed to ask the old aunt about the situation, so I went out and left.
