Chapter 19: The First Time
With a "bang", the door was suddenly pushed open, and Fang Yu was so shocked that he stood up from the bathtub, but saw Lin Xiaoxiao standing motionless at the door.
"Xiaoxiao, why are you here?" Fang Yu asked in astonishment.
Lin Xiaoxiao didn't reply, her eyes looked at Fang Yu directly.
Fang Yu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly thought that he was still naked (harmonious), so he hurriedly shrank into the bucket again, leaving only his head exposed by the bucket, and secretly looked at Lin Xiaoxiao.
Lin Xiaoxiao was wearing a light cotton short-sleeved pajamas, her exposed forearms were white and smooth, and her petite figure was even more over-the-top.
Fang Yu swallowed his saliva, and his amplified eyesight keenly captured some unspeakable images.
It turned out that girls didn't wear underwear (harmony) when they slept, and Fang Yu, who was rising in knowledge points, felt that the medicinal soup in the bath bucket seemed to be too hot, and he was about to bleed from the medicinal power.
Lin Xiaoxiao stood at the door for a while, walking in a straight line towards the bath bucket, which frightened Fang Yu and hurriedly lowered his head. Unexpectedly, Lin Xiaoxiao stopped when she walked to the bathtub, bent down and reached into the bucket.
Fang Yu hurriedly shrank to the other side of the bath tub, covering his key parts with both hands, and watched in amazement as Lin Xiaoxiao waved her arms back and forth above the tub very seriously.
Just when Fang Yu was looking a little distracted, he heard a "hum" in his head, and the taste chopsticks suddenly came out of his head, making him tremble.
Fang Yu stammered and asked in a low voice, "Taste.. Misaki, how do you... How did it come out? It's terrible to be seen by Xiaoxiao. ”
"What's the cake, it's a shame that you have strengthened your vision, you take a closer look at Lin Xiaoxiao's eyes."
As soon as Wei Zhen said this, Fang Yu noticed that Lin Xiaoxiao's eyes were wrong, and he was stunned, just looking ahead.
Fang Yu tried to stretch out his hand and shake it in front of Lin Xiaoxiao's eyes, but Lin Xiaoxiao still ignored it and made strange movements.
"Could this be... Sleepwalking? Fang Yu hesitated.
"That's right, this girl was fine a while ago, and she has been sleepwalking a lot lately." Miso said unconcernedly.
"Often? I didn't notice anything at all. ”
"She doesn't come to your room every time, and sometimes she goes downstairs to clean the lobby or cook in the back kitchen. The most recent was the night you received the imprint of the Five Fowl Play, and she stomped on you twice. But it's a pity that you're observing the heroic posture of the five phoenixes, and you haven't noticed it at all. ”
Fang Yu felt a strong taste of schadenfreude from Wei Zhen's words.
"Alright, alright, get up. People are wiping the barrel, but they don't want to attack you at night, don't be sentimental, hurry up and get out of the way. Miso urged impatiently.
Fang Yu got up cautiously, for fear of alarming Lin Xiaoxiao.
After all, if Lin Xiaoxiao was woken up now, Fang Yu really didn't know how to explain about Wei Zhen, about himself, about... It's better not to let her know about these things anyway.
"What should I do?" Fang Yu quietly asked Wei Zhen: "Just let Xiaoxiao do this?" ”
Wei Zhen glanced at Fang Yu, "What else?" It's okay, she'll go back to sleep when she's done with it in a while. ”
Fang Yu looked at Lin Xiaoxiao busy in the house distressedly, "No wonder I always feel that Xiaoxiao's face is not very good during this time, it turns out that it is so hard at night." Miso, you didn't even remind me before. ”
"Why?" Mitsuki asked strangely, "She didn't threaten your safety, and you didn't ask me about her." ”
"But we should take the initiative to care about her."
"Xiao Yuzi, are you making a mistake, I'm not your nanny or housekeeper." The taste is not a smile.
Fang Yu thought about it, what Wei Zhen said was right, it really didn't owe him anything, and it didn't have the obligation to take care of everything, the key was that he didn't care enough about Lin Xiaoxiao.
"Well, you're right, it's me who thinks it's bad. So is there anything that can help Xiaoxiao now? ”
"Although the 'way of taste' involves medical skills, it is not specialized in curing diseases, and there is no such thing as 'medical treatment' in this world. Lin Xiaoxiao's situation was born with congenital deficiencies, and the acquired was not well recuperated, coupled with the recent hot climate, she was overthought and caused by sleepwalking, and taking drugs directly is also a symptom rather than a cure. ”
"There should be a better way, right?"
"Of course, human beings are in the world and are close to all things, so they can naturally nourish themselves with the help of external objects. The so-called medicine supplement is not as good as food supplement, like Lin Xiaoxiao, if you want to treat the symptoms and cure the root cause, you must go through a long period of warm nourishment and nourishment, and gradually improve your physical fitness by consolidating the foundation and cultivating the yuan. This season, you can first eat some mild foods that replenish the body and nourish the qi, moisturize and soothe the nerves. As for what to eat... Xiao Yuzi, the topic is here, let's think about it yourself tomorrow morning. ”
………
The next morning, Fang Yu still got up early for morning exercises, and when she left, she stuffed a note at Lin Xiaoxiao's door, telling her to sleep more and not get up to make breakfast on the grounds that she wanted to experiment with new recipes.
After another hard practice, after being ravaged by the taste chopsticks with all kinds of magical words, Fang Yu finally ended his morning exercise.
On the way back, Fang Yu turned around to a nearby vegetable market and picked up a three-yellow hen, bought some red dates, glutinous rice, and some pure soy milk from a nearby tofu shop.
Back in the small building, Lin Xiaoxiao hadn't woken up yet, and it seemed that she was tired enough to sleepwalk last night.
Fang Yu first soaked the red dates and glutinous rice in water, then chopped the hens that had been killed in the vegetable market and blanched them, and then put them in a clay pot to simmer. Because Lin Xiaoxiao is not suitable for ginger and cooking wine at the moment, Fang Yu just put a few peppercorns to remove the fish, and nothing else.
After dealing with the three yellow hens, Fang Yu first went upstairs to scrub briefly, and then changed his clothes and went downstairs to start making breakfast.
Fang Yu first took out the glutinous rice, steamed it in the pot, and pinched the red dates that had just been soaked with water. These red dates were selected by Fang Yu one by one, and after soaking, they were all full, red in color, and just soft and hard.
Chinese medicinal herbs can often be used as ingredients. Jujube is a very useful medicinal herb, and it is also a daily ingredient with good nutrition and taste.
Li Shizhen said in the "Compendium of Materia Medica": Jujube is sweet in taste and warm in nature, which can replenish the middle and nourish the qi, nourish the blood and nourish the body. Daily consumption of jujube can treat physical weakness, neurasthenia, spleen and stomach disharmony, and indigestion. In addition, the liver-nourishing and anti-cancer function of jujube is also very prominent. There is a good saying: "If you eat jujube for a day, you won't look old."
Jujube is a good thing, and jujube pits actually have its role. After eating the dates, take the dates in your mouth and chew them gently, which also has the effect of strengthening your teeth.
But there are pros and cons to everything. As seeds, jujube kernels have the effect of germination. Jujube itself can nourish blood and calm the nerves, but when cooked together with the jujube core, it will increase a trace of heat, and somewhat weaken the effect of calming the nerves, which is not necessarily suitable for the elderly, children and people who are weak and sick.
According to Lin Xiaoxiao's physique, Fang Yu picked up the soaked soft red dates, poked off the cores with chopsticks, and then cut them into small slices for later use.
Then Fang Yu filtered the pure soybean milk he bought again, made the okara completely clear and clean, and poured it into the pot to boil. After scraping off the boiling foam, Fang Yu poured the steamed glutinous rice and pitted and diced red dates into the soybean milk, boiled over high heat, simmered for about 8 minutes on low heat, sprinkled with a little crushed rock sugar, and simmered for 10 minutes.
For the first time in Fang Yu's life, he completely conceived a special delicacy - soy milk, glutinous rice and red date porridge, and it was completed.
