Chapter 233: Porridge
Lin Yu watched this scene silently, the man said that he wanted to atone for his sins in front of the old man, this may be his way of atoning for his sins, except for kneeling in front of the old man's bed, the man couldn't do anything else.
The old man seemed to be crying, and she gently wiped away a cloudy tear from the corner of the quilt, not knowing whether it was because she was suspicious of the police's words, or because she was pitying the son who had been kidnapped by gamblers.
A few minutes later, the sad atmosphere was broken by a cat that ran in, it was Xiaohua, who had listened to the old man's instructions and went out to forage for food on her own. Xiaohua ran to the bed with something in her mouth, and after putting the thing down, Xiaohua looked at the old man and made a meow in her mouth.
The old man turned his head and found that it was a dead mouse that Xiaohua had thrown on the bed, and her face couldn't help crying and laughing, and she said to Xiaohua with loving eyes, "Are you afraid that I won't have anything to eat, so you bring back a mouse?" This is your favorite food, but grandma can't eat it, Xiaohua, you better eat it yourself." ”
This time, Xiaohua didn't understand what the old man meant, it only saw the old man stretching out a hand and gently stroking his head, Xiaohua squinted slightly, taking this as a reward for himself by the owner.
The old man shouldn't have eaten well in the past few days, so even Xiaohua began to worry about her, and Lin Yu thought of a very practical question. The old man will definitely not order takeout if he lives in such a place, and her current physical condition naturally can't go to the restaurant, so compared to the man's atonement, let the old man have a good meal is probably the top priority.
Lin Yu walked back to the hall and took off the Grim Reaper's hat on his head, he deliberately knocked on the door before walking in, giving time for the old man's emotions to calm down.
The old man wiped the corners of his eyes and guessed that it was the college student volunteer who had returned, so he whispered, "Kid, come in." ”
Lin Yu was carrying a transparent plastic bag in her hand, and all kinds of small boxes containing cold medicine were easily seen by the old man, and she was moved a lot in her heart, and said on her lips, "Child, how did you go to buy medicine? How much did it cost, grandma gave it to you." ”
Seeing that the old man was struggling to sit up, Lin Yu hurriedly went over to help her, in fact, he didn't know what medicine to buy for the old man, but with the help of the clerk, he bought a little bit of several medicines for colds and flu.
"Grandma, you don't need to give money, these are all sponsored by the school," Lin Yu had to tell a lie casually, it was impossible for him to ask for the old man's money in the first place, let alone when the old man was cheated of 300,000. As a volunteer, donating clothing and medicine is common, so this reason sounds reasonable.
The old man sat on the bed and said gratefully, "Your school is really good, I am blessed to have cultivated such a good child as you, and also gave me medicine." ”
Lin Yu didn't say anything, and said in his heart that this old man was really stupid and cute, the 300,000 yuan he had accumulated was gone, but he felt blessed because he got some free medicines, and he didn't know how his son would feel when he found out.
"Grandma, do you have water at home? I'll give you some medicine first," Lin Yu asked after putting the medicine down.
"Yes, in the thermos in the kitchen, the cups are there," the old man replied.
Lin Yu found the kitchen and saw that there were indeed three hot water bottles there, this kind of thing is generally not used by people in the city, but it can also be seen in his hometown in the countryside.
Lin Yu mentioned it separately, only one of the hot water bottles had water, he opened the cork and poured half a cup of water into the ceramic teacup. There is only a little residual temperature left in the water, which should have been burned two days ago, and the temperature should be higher than the current weather, but under special circumstances, it is not so much.
With half a glass of water, Lin Yu returned to the old man's room, and he saw that there was one of the cold medicines that needed to be brewed, so he poured one of the packets into the teacup and stirred it slightly. Other cold medicines squeezed the pills out of the palm of their hands according to the dosage instructions above.
The old man took all the medicine in two parts, and she smiled at Lin Yu and said, "Child, thank you for your hard work." ”
Lin Yu put the rest of the medicine on the dresser, it was now noon, and his stomach was a little hungry, he was going to go outside to buy some food, and at the same time help the old man pack some things and come back.
"Grandma, what would you like to eat at noon?" Lin Yu asked tentatively.
The old man lay on the bed and waved his hand, "Grandma doesn't have much appetite, child, you go out to eat, grandma won't eat." ”
Lin Yu frowned a little embarrassedly, it would definitely not work just to take medicine, it would be difficult for the body to recover without energy supplementation. At this time, the man who had been kneeling beside the bed looked up and said, "If the patient has no appetite, maybe, it would be better to drink some porridge." ”
This sentence woke up Lin Yu, and he remembered that his grandmother had no appetite to eat during the period when he was sick, and his mother also boiled some porridge for her to drink, which could not only supplement nutrition but also be easy to digest.
"Why don't I make you some porridge?" Lin Yu proposed.
The old man's eyes lit up, she really hasn't eaten much in the past few days, although she doesn't want to eat rice, but it is still very good if she can have a mouthful of porridge to drink, but she didn't expect that such a young man would actually boil porridge?
"Child, do you really know how to cook porridge?" the old man asked happily, in her opinion, college students should have never cooked, and it is already very good to be able to cook rice in a rice cooker.
"It's definitely no problem," Lin Yu said confidently, "The rice is also in the kitchen, right?" ”
Looking at the back of the college student walking out of the room, the old man didn't know what to say, she felt as if the other party appeared to save herself, as if a god had fallen from the sky?
Lin Yu walked to the hall and found that the man did not come out, and he knelt in the room honestly, and couldn't help but be anxious about the man's IQ. Of course, he has never cooked, there is a cafeteria in the university, and there are parents when he goes home, of course he has never done such a thing as making porridge, and he promised to come down because men can teach him on the side. Helping the old man make a bowl of porridge to drink can be regarded as he really did something for his atonement, and now he kneels in front of the old man until he is old, and the old man can't see it.
Lin Yu had no choice but to put on the Grim Reaper's hat and walked in again, he said angrily to the man, "Eh, I said what is the use of you kneeling here all the time, can you drink it as porridge?" Tell me how to boil that porridge, the first step must be to wash rice..."
