Chapter Forty-Eight: Tempting with Food
"Bang Bang Bang-" The sound of banging on the door continued, as if he was about to knock on the door and come in, "The master inside, open the door quickly!" ”
Yin Zhige's movements froze, and his hanging hand clenched into a fist and fell back under him.
Zhong Xiaoshu was surprised, she felt that this voice was a little familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had heard it for a while.
The sound of slapping the door outside the door still didn't give up at all, Yin Zhigor paused for a moment, got up and went to open it.
The old man was not polite at all, and as soon as he slipped into the smoke, he jumped to the table, and sniffed it vigorously with his nose in front of the copper pot, and said that it was not an exaggeration to say that he was like a beggar who had been hungry for a long time when he saw the broth.
Zhong Xiaoshu also put down her chopsticks and looked at it, this person was not the Xiao Strange Doctor who gave her the detoxification prescription that day, who else could it be!
"Senior Xiao! How did you end up here? Zhong Xiaoshu said in surprise.
By this time it was already a little dark, the lanterns and candles in the backyard were lit, and there were almost no pedestrians walking on the street, and everyone went back to their homes.
Why did this strange old man sneak into the backyard alley?
Xiao Lao Wei didn't answer, but just sniffed around the hot pot vigorously, and swallowed his saliva several times.
Yin Zhige walked back, and when he saw that it was this doctor, he was very grateful to him in his heart, thanks to his prescription, most of the acne marks on Zhong Xiaoshu's face in recent days have disappeared, and he has been much smoother, and even his lame leg is a lot lighter, which is really thanks to him.
So, he groaned slightly, and arched his hand: "If Doctor Xiao has any difficulties, my husband and wife will definitely be willing to help." ”
The old man who was homeless late at night, and he looked like he had been hungry for ten days, which was really pitiful.
Who knew that the old monster Xiao was not sad at all, but his face was happy, and when he heard Yin Zhige's words, he even said: "It turned out to be your little couple, that's even better, okay, you guys quickly give me a pair of chopsticks and bowls, I also want to eat this pot of broth!" It smells so good. ”
Zhong Xiaoshu and Yin Zhige looked at each other, but they still prepared one for the old man as he said.
As soon as the chopsticks were handed over, Xiao Laowei couldn't wait to put down a plate of meat in the copper pot to cook, Zhong Xiaoshu hurriedly stopped: "Don't!" In this way, the meat will be boiled and eaten slice by piece. ”
"Wonderful! The little lady is wonderful! Xiao Lao Wei was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but clap his hands angrily, and praised several words one after another.
Then I couldn't wait, picked up some slices of meat and put them in the pot and soaked them several times, and when I saw that they were cooked, I immediately picked them up and stuffed them into my mouth.
It was so hot that he screamed again, and he was reluctant to spit it out, so he swallowed it, but his mouth still had a grappling aftertaste, "This meat is so fresh!" Very good, very good! ”
After saying that, he stretched out his chopsticks again, looking in a hurry.
Zhong Xiaoshu couldn't laugh or cry when he saw it, so he had to hand him a bowl of freshly adjusted dipping dishes, and teach him the skills of shabu-shabu, so he and Yin Zhige sat aside and waited for the old man's house.
said that he was like a beggar who said that there was less meat when he saw it, and looking at the posture of Xiao Strange Doctor, it was clear that he hadn't eaten a full meal for a month, and he stuffed more than a dozen dishes and meat prepared by Zhong Xiaoshu on the table into his stomach.
In the end, he scooped a bowl of soup in a copper pot and slapped his stomach contentedly and sat down on the stool.
"Are you ready to eat?" Zhong Xiaoshu asked tentatively.
"Eat well, eat beautifully!" Xiao Laowei's tone was all up.
Zhong Xiaoshu and Yin Zhige smiled helplessly, "It's good to eat well, even if you detoxify me that day, thank you for giving me a prescription." If you don't have a place to live these days, you can stay with us temporarily, and you don't have to spend any food, drink, or food. ”
"Hey, you two are very generous!" Old Monster Xiao picked his teeth, and then waved his hand indifferently and said, "Little old man, I have a place to live, so I don't need you here." Thank you for your hospitality today! ”
"If there is this broth pot today in the future, hehehehe, just remember to call me to eat it again!"
With that, he was ready to get up and leave.
At this time, Zhong Xiaoshu's ears suddenly sounded the voice of system 38, "Friendly reminder, friendly reminder, master, the second side task you took over, to recuperate for Yin Huairen, there are currently key people appearing, remember to seize the opportunity to complete the task!" ”
Zhong Xiaoshu was slightly stunned, and immediately shouted, "Stay!" ”
Her voice was sudden, and she screamed a little louder, which startled the two men present.
Yin Zhige looked at her with some doubts, and even Doctor Xiao, who had stepped out with one foot, turned around in surprise and asked worriedly, "...... The little lady doesn't want me to pay for the meal......"
"No, no, of course not!" Zhong Xiaoshu hurriedly shook his head, stepped forward in a few steps to stop Doctor Xiao, was not ambiguous at all, and said bluntly: "I still have something to ask Senior Xiao for, and I also ask Senior Xiao to treat my mother-in-law and eldest brother!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Yin Zhige reacted, and his heart could not be said to be unmoved.
I didn't expect Zhong Xiaoshu to think about the old brother in the family all the time, and she was able to be thoughtful even where he didn't think of it.
Yin Zhige also stepped forward, stood side by side with Zhong Xiaoshu, and after taking a deep look at her, he also bowed to Doctor Xiao, and begged: "Please ask Senior Xiao to treat my mother's eldest brother, I Yin Zhige must be grateful!" ”
Who knew that Dr. Xiao, who was talking very well just now, heard about the treatment, and even retreated for a walk, his head shook violently, "No, no, no!" I don't just treat others, isn't that worthy of the rules I have set! ”
When you are in a good mood, you don't receive a penny, and you don't ask for reasons; When you're in a bad mood, you don't have any excuses!
He is an old monster who lives a willful life!
Zhong Xiaoshu frowned slightly, and he still had to persuade again, but the answers he got were all refusals.
But people don't want to, they can't detain him and force him to nod. Zhong Xiaoshu sighed, and said in his heart, maybe the time has not yet come, and he can't ask for it.
When disappointed, he stepped back a little and let Doctor Xiao leave.
No, when Xiao Lao Wei was leaving, he reluctantly glanced at the hot pot on the table in the backyard.
Zhong Xiaoshu's eyes lit up all of a sudden, "Wait!" Mr. Xiao, listen to my last sentence, if you are still unwilling to diagnose and treat, then I have nothing to say! ”
"Then tell me about it." Doctor Xiao was also interested in this little lady's persistence.
"If you are willing to treat my mother and eldest brother, then I am willing to let you eat this kind of hot pot tonight for three days in a row!"
