Chapter Twenty-Three: A Carrot Is a Good Turnip
Lin Hui sighed, smiled and asked, "Sister Jia'er, you just said that you know what I'm here for, so can you tell me who you think I am and what I'm here for?" ”
Hearing the specific question, Xie Minjia's attention was distracted from self-pity and self-pity, and he eased up a little, and said: "Brother Huang came here last time, and said that he had a new acquaintance with a Xiaolin Divine Doctor, and his medical skills are very good, but the Xiaolin Divine Doctor brothers and sisters have not long been in Nanwu City, and they know few people, especially the younger sister of Xiaolin Divine Doctor, who has no contact with the boudoir in the city, so he wants me to entertain you." ”
Xie Minjia's voice became lower and lower, and then suddenly rose again: "My brother has never approved of me interacting with others, and it is always easy to bring bad things to all kinds of laypeople. But this time he actually agreed, and asked me to entertain someone I hadn't met before. It doesn't make sense at all, so, I guess...... You're probably the same as Doctor Kobayashi, you know some medical skills, but you're actually here to see me. ”
"That's right, Sister Jia'er is so smart." Lin Hui agreed, and said with a smile: "Since I'm here to see you, then you should listen to me first, you can't break the disease first, what is predecrepit before you get old, you will scare yourself enough first, it's not like that at all!" Let me ask you, do you refuse to eat anything greasy with you? ”
Xie Minjia's eyes widened, and he said curiously: "How do you know this?!" Then his mood was low again: "Sister Lin must have guessed that she saw me so fat." ”
Lin Hui automatically ignored the question of whether Xie Minjia was fat or not, and continued to ask: "Do you still not like to eat certain ingredients, such as pork liver, lamb liver, carrots, pumpkin, mung beans or something." ”
Xie Minjia thought for a while and replied one by one: "Not only pork liver and sheep liver, but I don't even eat pig heart, pig lungs, pig face, or pumpkin, but the pumpkin seeds are okay, and the mung beans can only be drunk with mung bean soup in the summer." Well, what's that carrot? ”
Wildly...... Turnip......
Isn't there here? Although the carrot has a prefix "Hu", it was introduced from outside, but it seems to have been there for a long time.
"The carrot is Ganxun, do you like to eat Ganxun?" Lin Hui remembered that carrots also had a name.
"Oh, Gan Xun, I don't love that smell."
This time it's right.
Lin Hui nodded, there is no doubt that it can be diagnosed, in fact, Xie Minjia's situation is vitamin A deficiency, she does not like to eat foods rich in vitamin A, and she is afraid of obesity and does not eat oil, vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin, no oil can not be absorbed, and after a long time, there are symptoms of deficiency, night blindness, skin keratinization and the like.
This disease is not difficult to treat, but how to tell Xie Minjia?
Lin Hui thought for a while and said, "Sister Jia'er, in fact, your situation is very common, especially in the countryside, you can't eat anything good, and people often have night blindness." The so-called night blindness is the blurred vision at night, also known as chicken blindness. Because chickens are invisible at night. If you don't believe it, if you go back and ask the old people around you, someone will definitely know. ”
"But I'm eating well." Hearing that this kind of situation is very common for him, Xie Minjia's stuffy melon appearance is much better.
"Yes, of course you eat well, you eat whatever you want, you don't eat what you don't want to eat, but you are a picky eater, you don't eat oil. Although it is easy to get lucky if you eat too much oil, if you eat too little or even don't eat at all, you will lose the balance, and it will naturally be inappropriate. ”
As he spoke, Lin Hui pointed to the sky and said, "The way of heaven is conserved, and everything is the same." For example, it rains in the sky, falls to the ground and joins the river, and the water vapor on the ground steam up and returns to the sky, and so on. ”
Xie Minjia's eyes widened, not knowing what the rain had to do with him that day.
Lin Hui rolled her eyes, pointed to the chrysanthemum in front of her, and said, "For example, this flower, everyone knows that it needs to be watered to be delicate and beautiful, if there is no water, how can it grow?!" ”
"I drink water, but I don't eat oil." Xie Minjia whispered.
"I'm making an analogy, and an analogy means analogy." Lin Hui had a headache. Alas, I don't know the point.
"Let's put it this way, when it's hot and humid, your face gets oily, right?"
Xie Minjia finally nodded.
"And where does this oil come from? Actually, I still eat it from food. Then think about it, if you don't eat oil at all, and you are picky when eating, then your skin will be dry and rough, and even your pores will be enlarged like chicken skin, which is actually related to your eating habits. ”
Xie Minjia finally seemed to understand.
Lin Hui sighed secretly in her heart, although it was plausible, there was no way to do it, and it was impossible to tell her what the principle of action of vitamins was. It's not easy to be a doctor, and it's really hard to even bluff this sister Jia'er.
It's easy to do if you understand, Lin Hui wrote a few prescriptions for diet therapy to Xie Minjia, and asked her to eat them for a while and then look at them, and specially instructed that carrots are good things, and you can eat more in moderation.
Talking about the matter, Xie Minjia listened to Lin Hui's words and claimed conclusively that as long as she adjusted according to the prescription she wrote, she would definitely get better in less than half a month, and her mood would improve, after all, she was a teenage girl, although she was thoughtful, but she also changed very quickly.
Xie Minjia pointed to a dark red chrysanthemum in the flower garden and said with a smile: "Sister, look, this chrysanthemum is called Ink Peony, isn't it worthy of the name?" The first time I heard about the ink peony, I thought it was a black peony flower, and made a joke, but it turned out to be a chrysanthemum, just because this flower blooms brilliantly and has the style of a peony, so it is called a peony. The ink is dark because of its color, not really black. If you want me to say, this name must have been given by those sour so-called scribes......"
The girl chirped and recounted some interesting things at some point, and the maids came out of nowhere and followed to amuse.
The sun in the sky is bright, but it is not hot.
The refreshing scent of autumn is refreshing.
Lin Hui secretly stretched her body, and a gentle smile appeared on her lips.
It's nice to be able to help others.
Lunch will be arranged in an open hall across the east courtyard. The maid who came to pass the meal walked ahead, and Lin Hui followed while looking at the scenery of Xie's house.
To be honest, this Xie Mansion is really a little bit ...... Lacklustre, perhaps because of the season, in addition to the chrysanthemum garden, there are fallen leaves everywhere, quite a sense of gloom. Walk up a section of the corridor from the chrysanthemum to the left, pass through the Moon Gate, and bypass the powder wall that is more than one person high, and you will see the East Cross Courtyard.
Xie Xinzhe and Huang Houdong also came over to have a meal together.
Xie Xinzhe saw that his sister's expression was clear, as if he had recovered a lot of his former temperament, and his face softened, in front of Lin Hui, it was not good to ask about each other, so he just turned his head and continued the topic that the two of them talked about before.
