Chapter 45 3 servings of health supplements a day
These women all have children at home, and they were overjoyed when they heard Chen Yuan say this. They rushed home to announce the good news.
Aunt Zhang is one of them.
She carried the steamed buns and fried dough sticks and hurried home.
As soon as I got home, I was met with complaints from my husband.
"You just went to buy some steamed buns and fried dough sticks, why did it take you so long to come back? The soy milk is almost cold."
Several cups of soy milk were prominently displayed on the table.
Judging from the packaging, it must have been bought from Aunt Li.
Aunt Zhang wasn't angry. She smiled and placed the steamed buns and fried dough sticks on the table, then put two of the custard buns in front of her grandson.
"We have your favorite custard buns today. You can take these two to school to eat. We'll have meat buns for breakfast, okay?"
Aunt Zhang's grandson is in junior high school this year. He is thin and bony, with black-rimmed glasses on his nose and his eyes squinting, looking like he hasn't woken up yet.
"Okay, I understand, thank you Grandma."
"Oh, what a good child."
Aunt Zhang washed her hands before coming over to eat. Before she even sat down, she heard her daughter-in-law counting medicines.
"Jiahui, did you take the probiotics I told you to take on an empty stomach?"
"have eaten."
"After you finish eating, take all these vitamins. Remember to take some probiotics before lunch, as your stomach hasn't been feeling well lately."
"Okay, I understand."
Seeing her grandson Zhao Jiahui looking like a guinea pig in a drug trial, Aunt Zhang felt both heartache and worry, and couldn't help but say something.
"An Hong, is it okay for you to give him so much medicine? I've heard that taking too much medicine can damage the liver."
The daughter-in-law, An Hong, casually pointed to a bottle next to her.
"That's what I'm worried about, so I bought him liver-protecting pills."
"..."
Aunt Zhang sat down, rubbing her thigh with her hand, clearly not knowing what to say.
After thinking for a long time, she finally spoke.
"An Hong, you had that soy milk from the breakfast shop near the entrance twice the other day, right? How did it taste?"
"It's great, my skin has definitely improved after drinking it."
"By the way, why aren't you and Dad buying any more? You've switched to this soy milk. This soy milk isn't as good as the one from the breakfast shop."
Aunt Zhang briefly told the story of Aunt Li, who sells soy milk, raising her disabled son alone. An Hong paused for a moment and then spoke.
"Alright, it's all soy milk anyway, let's support them. We can just buy it from the breakfast shop occasionally, it saves me money on face masks."
"Okay, okay, I'll have your dad go buy it tomorrow."
This passage laid the foundation.
Aunt Zhang saw her daughter-in-law's approval of the beauty soy milk.
Now we're ready to get to the point.
"When I was leaving today, Mr. Chen, the owner of the breakfast shop, said that he would be making pork wontons tomorrow. He said that these wontons can improve children's concentration and are especially suitable for working people and students."
"How about we don't make him take these medicines tomorrow? I'll take him out for wontons, and then he can go straight to school. What do you think?"
An Hong was eating a steamed bun when she heard this, and she stopped eating.
"No way, Mom. I've planned out the medication schedule day by day. I can't mess it up."
"this……"
"Besides, what kind of wontons can improve concentration? Do they put fish oil or DHA in them? If they were that effective, why would we need health supplements?"
"Mom, let me tell you, don't let outsiders fool you."
"You old folks are so easy to fool. Also, try to avoid those egg giveaway events. It's not like we can't afford eggs."
An Hong rattled off a string of words, startling Aunt Zhang so much that she didn't dare to respond.
Zhao Jiahui, standing to the side, didn't dare to say a word and could only cast a helpless glance at Aunt Zhang.
At the same time, the action of putting the fried dough stick into his mouth became even faster.
Zhao Jiahui left as soon as he finished eating.
When he arrived at the bus stop, he saw Lin Zikang carrying large and small bags from afar.
Zhao Jiahui called out to Lin Zikang and hurriedly went over to help him carry some things.
Lin Zikang said, "Why are you so late today? I missed a bus waiting for you. I was thinking that if you didn't come soon, I would give up waiting for you."
Zhao Jiahui was clearly less talkative than the chubby boy; he scratched his head and fell silent.
Lin Zikang continued, "By the way, the boss said today that he'll be serving fresh pork wontons tomorrow, saying they can improve concentration. I have to try a bowl. Do you want some?"
Zhao Jiahui sighed, and just as he was about to speak, the chubby boy understood.
"Alright, alright, I know. Your mom probably won't allow it, so she gave you health supplements again, right?"
"Hmm, I also got an extra liver-protecting pill today."
"You eat so much every day, can you handle it?"
"Why……"
A long sigh rang out.
the other side.
Chen Yuan put the last 10 fried dough sticks into the pot and then said to the people in line behind him.
"There are only 10 fried dough sticks left, and the soy milk is all gone!"
"We have 20 pork buns left, 5 chive and egg buns left, and 8 custard buns left. Those of you waiting in line, please don't waste your time!"
A brief commotion arose among the people behind.
Xu Wen and Xu Jingjing were standing in the line, and Xu Jingjing pointed to the people in front of her and counted them one by one.
"1, 2, 3... 13?"
"There are still 13 people ahead of us. We probably won't get any fried dough sticks. We still have about thirty pork buns and other steamed buns left. We should be able to get some left, right?"
Xu Wen's eyes shone with hope, but Xu Jingjing, standing beside him, immediately poured cold water on his hopes.
"I think it's still unlikely. Look, there are a few aunties up ahead. They usually buy for the whole family at once, so they definitely won't buy just two. I doubt it."
No sooner had the words been spoken than an aunt at the very front spoke up.
"Give me six fried dough sticks and four steamed buns with pork."
More than half of the 10 fried dough sticks were gone in one go.
Xu Wen suddenly became anxious.
"Oh, you jinx!"
Xu Jingjing's eyes were fixed on Chen Yuan, watching his graceful movements and his smiling peach blossom eyes.
She became so engrossed in it that she couldn't extricate herself.
They finally managed to take a few steps forward.
Just as Xu Jingjing had predicted, before they even reached the other side, there was nothing left.
Those who didn't manage to buy any left with sighs and groans.
Xu Wen looked at Chen Yuan, tears welling up in her eyes.
But she still wouldn't give up, pitifully watching the other party as she made one last desperate attempt.
"Handsome boss, is that really all? Is that really all?"
Just as Chen Yuan was about to speak, he heard his phone ring in his pocket. After taking it out and glancing at it for a few moments, he suddenly looked up and said with a smile.
"Congratulations, you didn't have it before, but you do now."
Xu Wen: "What?! Did God hear my prayers?!"
