Chapter 4.3 - Rock Sugar 冰糖 (3)
He Suye handed it to her after he wrote it. She pondered for a while and asked, "Doctor He, what if a person has a flu, but doesn't like injections and medicine?"
He thought for a while, “I have flu tea, should I prescribe it for you?"
She win an inch, want a foot, nodded fiercely, looking like a wolf with a big tail. He Suye felt it was funny, but he could only suppress his smile and lowered his head to write her a prescription.
Shen Xifan looked at He Suye, a little lost. She thought to herself that her blind dates were always a group of "high quality" men. But why is there no such man like He Suye, kind and gentle, she was suddenly very annoyed by all the past blind dates.
As a result, she blurted out, "Doctor He, is there any medicine that can make my mother dispel the idea of blind date?"
He Suye was writing seriously, stopped and even made a mistake, drawing a faint mark.
Shen Xifan explained hurriedly, "I'm talking nonsense, please don't take it seriously!"
He Suye thought for a while, with a serious expression, "Ms. Shen should go to the marriage agency. This hospital does not provide similar services. I am only responsible for curing sick people, not normal people."
Shen Xifan went out to pay. Secretly, the service provided by the handsome doctor today is too good. If only she did not make that unplanned mistake at the end, it would have been perfect.
She read while walking, "Five God Tea 五神茶: 6 grams of tea, 10 grams of Jing Jie 荆芥, Su Ye 苏叶, and ginger 生姜 each, add water and simmer for 15 minutes, then add 30 grams of brown sugar to drink, 2 times a day, you can take as much as you want. It disperses cold, dispels wind and relieves pain. It is suitable for wind-cold, cold, chills, body pain, non-sweat and other symptoms..."
Continuing to giggle, "Five God Tea, there are Su Ye in it..." Without paying attention, she bumped into the person in front. As soon as she looked up, he turned out to be a doctor. He was not tall, but he has very distinct looks, which were absolutely unforgettable.
She was embarrassed, and the doctor was also embarrassed. They looked at each other, laughed and went their own way.
She took the medicine back to the hotel and asked Xu Xiangya to take care of the Ling trouble maker. She was getting off work and carried a large bag of things to go home to treat the mother in menopause.
Father Shen was very surprised when he saw his daughter come home. Shen Xifan explained, "Dad, I'm here to save you from fire and water!"
Father Shen made a "hush" motion, "Your mother is still sleeping in the room. Last night she said she was upset with night sweats and didn't sleep well. She woke up early in the morning and didn't sleep until I came back from school in the afternoon."
She nodded, "Dad, you go to the study to do your work first. I will make some porridge for mom. Today I went to ask the doctor, and the doctor prescribed a few dietary remedies, and he said they might work."
Lotus seeds nourish the heart and kidneys, nourish the spleen and lungs, clear away heat and soothe the nerves, strengthen the heart and lower blood pressure, longan, warm and sweet, and nourish the spleen , replenishing qi and blood, used for insomnia, forgetfulness, palpitations, dizziness caused by deficiency of heart and spleen, lack of qi and blood, rock sugar for nourishing the vital energy, and nourishing the stomach and lungs.
The kitchen is filled with the scent of rice porridge, accompanied by the faint medicinal scent of lotus seeds and longan. Finally, rock sugar is added. All of a sudden, the sweet aroma pops up, and the slightly hot water vapour with a sweet scent diffuses in the house.
At the dinner table, Father Shen handed the bowl over, "Fanfan, give me another bowl of porridge, it's very delicious."
Shen Xifan looked at him incredulously, "Dad, this is for mother to eat. It is a comprehensive treatment for menopause. It’s medicine !”
Father Shen laughed, “It’s okay, your dad is entering menopause soon, better to prepare in advance and take precautions!”
Mother Shen glared at him, and Father Shen immediately changed his words, “Serve me rice, serve me rice, porridge can fill my stomach!”
She had to return to the hotel in the evening. Only after she promised that she would go home and stay for a while as soon as the work was over, then father Shen let her go.
It is really cold in winter, and the bones blown by the gusts of wind are cold. She planned to drink a little Banlangen tea from tomorrow to prevent a cold.
She feels that there is a sweet scent on the clothes, not like liquorice, but the long, long and warm taste of rock sugar, just like her own mood, sweet and carefree.
She suddenly thought of the deep dimple on He Suye’s face, and when he smiled, it looked like a rock candy, cool in summer and warm in winter.
