2417 Exciting
Chang Yue could not hold it in anymore after 18 hours of observation the next day.
At the hospital, she had convinced the emergency doctor, Su Yun, and finally Zheng Ren. Finally, she had returned home as she had wished.
It was a false alarm, but everyone felt like they had just survived a disaster. To be able to live well was indeed something worth celebrating.
However, Zheng Ren still insisted that Chang Yue had to eat liquid food for two and a half days. After all, acute allergic shock caused the body to be in a state of stress, and if the situation was serious, it was possible for the patient to suffer from upper gastrointestinal bleeding.
Although Chang Yue looked fine, Zheng Ren still allowed her to eat the porridge cautiously. In any case, he would just treat it as a rabbit for the next two days. He couldn’t eat greasy food.
“Zheng Ren, is sister Yue on a diet recently?” Xie Yiren was already ready to go and buy all kinds of delicious food for Chang Yue.
Although it couldn’t be eaten as usual, it could still be chopped and put into the porridge. In Xie Yiren’s eyes, the days spent with plain porridge and pickled vegetables were torture.
“Just don’t make it too spicy or greasy.” Zheng Ren felt that the word ‘taboo’ was very familiar.
“Alright,”
The two of them chatted as they changed their shoes and prepared to go downstairs. Blackie squatted on the ground, staring at the two of them. At this time, as long as there was a slight movement to signal that he wanted to go out together, Blackie would rush up like a Black Lightning with a leash in his mouth.
“Be good. If you’re going to buy groceries, then don’t go.” Zheng Ren said gently as he touched hei Zi’s head.
“Blackie, there!” Su Yun picked up a peanut and shook it at hei Zi.
Hei Zi seemed to be in a dilemma, but in the end, he still ran happily towards Su Yun.
“Zheng Ren, other than the ones that are too spicy and too oily, what about the others?” Xie Yiren asked,”when I was sick, my mom said that I can’t eat any appetizers. Sister Yue, is this okay?”
“Xingxing …” Zheng Ren held Xie Yiren’s hand and entered the elevator.
He had explained this word to his patients countless times, so he was very familiar with it.
Usually, after surgery, or even when the patient was successfully discharged from the hospital, he would first express his gratitude to the doctor and ask if there was anything he did not eat. Could seafood, beef, and mutton be eaten?
In the past, Zheng Ren would always explain in detail, but that was no longer necessary now. Chang Yue was the only one responsible for the communication between the medical team and the patients.
“I feel that Chinese medicine focuses on looking, listening, asking, and feeling. We can’t use one or two concepts to solve all problems.” Zheng Ren said.
Xie Yiren didn’t notice that Zheng Ren was using the tone and logic of someone talking to a patient’s family. She happily pulled Zheng Ren into the elevator.
“I want to make seafood porridge for sister Yue, but I heard that seafood is appetizing. What if you eat something bad? I’m so scared.” Xie Yiren said.
“I think that seafood is considered as an appetizer, and it might be from a few years ago … Forget it, there’s no theoretical basis. If you’re worried, then don’t let Chang Yue eat it.”
“Where’s the beef and mutton? Is it also considered an exciting event?” Xie Yiren asked.
“It’s said to have the function of nourishing the middle and Qi, nourishing the spleen and stomach, strengthening the bones and muscles, dispelling phlegm and stopping the wind, and quenching thirst and saliva. It’s suitable for people with sunken Qi, short breath, weak body, sore muscles, long-term anemia, yellow face, and dizziness. ” Zheng Ren laughed.”It’s more like an instigative. There’s also another saying. Mutton doesn’t count, but beef does.”
“We can’t eat beef and mutton either …” Xie Yiren’s mood was a little low.
Since they couldn’t eat beef and mutton, they could only eat some vegetables.
“Where’s Qing Cai?”
“Tomato, eggplant, spinach, chilies, chives, shiitake mushrooms …”
“Wait a minute. Is shiitake mushroom a stimulating substance?!” Xie Yiren asked in surprise.
“It should be said that almost all edible fungi are stimulating.” Zheng Ren still used the tone of explaining the patient’s condition to the patient’s family. He used words like ‘almost’,’should’,’almost’,’possibly’, and so on.
“Any food that can cause dry mouth, red eyes, swollen gums, and constipation are considered stimulating. However, this was mentioned in a recent Chinese medicine paper.” Zheng Ren said,”in the Chinese medical books, it seems to be called ‘moving the wind to create the Yang’. I don’t have much research in this area.”
“You can’t eat this nor that. Don’t tell me you can only have some millet porridge to nourish your stomach.”
“Well, Xiaomi can do it. It’s also known as millet, sweet in nature, slightly cold, and enters the lungs and large intestine. ” Zheng Ren was showing off the little knowledge he had of Chinese medicine.
When Xie Yiren thought about how Chang Yue was going to eat like a rabbit, she felt a little worried.
The joy he had felt when he was buying groceries was all gone, leaving only distress and unwillingness.
“Actually, there’s been a research on the fusion of Chinese and Western medicine recently. I think it’s quite reliable.” Zheng Ren replied,”the term ‘stimulating food’ refers to food that might cause allergic reactions.”
“Allergic …” Xie Yiren was a little “allergic” to that word.
Chang Yue got into such a big accident just because she drank some warm water yesterday. If it were not for the two experienced emergency doctors at home, she might not have survived.
Therefore, Xie Yiren would rather believe it than not. As she chatted with Zheng Ren, she walked past most of the stalls in the market with regret.
If Chang Yue can’t eat, then everyone should stop eating too. She couldn’t let everyone eat and drink while she watched.
That would be too inhumane, especially for Chang Yue, who claimed to be on a diet but had to eat a lot of food when she went to buy groceries with Xie Yiren every day. That could only be described as cruel.
The market was bustling with noise and Zheng Ren was in charge of carrying the things. Every time she bought a dish, Xie Yiren would ask Chang Yue if she could eat it now.
If it was someone else, Zheng Ren would have been annoyed.
However, it was Yiren who had asked him that question, so he explained patiently as he watched Xie Yiren leave with a smile. There were even some who pretended to be in a daze and went to the system library to flip through the books.
Although there were all sorts of ‘inedible’ things, Zheng Ren’s hands were still filled with all sorts of ingredients.
Faced with the dazzling array of ingredients, Zheng Ren did not know how to arrange them and make a delicious meal out of them.
Cooking was also a difficult subject, but Zheng Ren had no interest in it.
In fact, Zheng Ren felt that whether it was seafood, beef, mutton, or any other “stimulating food,” there was no problem at all.
There was no incision on Chang Yue’s body, so this should not have been involved. But since Yiren asked, he might as well eat less. It wouldn’t do him any harm anyway. Zheng Ren felt that he would go crazy if he really got an allergic reaction after eating.
If it was a patient who had just undergone surgery, Zheng Ren felt that it was necessary to supplement them with protein. Otherwise, if they did not have enough nutrition, it would affect the healing of the incision.
After returning home to recuperate, there seemed to be a lot of things to take note of. Zheng Ren sighed. It wasn’t easy being a doctor, and it didn’t seem to be easy for the patient’s family either.
