Chapter 107 Pig Trotter Soup
Chapter 107 Pig Trotter Soup
In the next few days, Wen Nuan continued to run back and forth between the hospital and home.
Recently, Aunt Huang is responsible for preparing meals, while Wen Nuan is responsible for delivering meals.
She delivered hot meals to the hospital on time every day, and then handed over the shift to Wen's mother. The mother and daughter took turns to take care of Wen's father.
Seeing his wife and daughter working so hard, Mr. Wen felt very distressed and persuaded Mrs. Wen to go back and have a rest.
However, Mother Wen firmly believed that there must always be someone to look after Father Wen. After all, Father Wen is unable to move around easily and she is worried about him.
Mother Wen looked at Father Wen tenderly and said softly, "Don't worry about it. Take good care of your injuries. When you get better, our family will be able to be together happily again."
Wen Nuan also comforted Dad Wen: "Dad, just listen to Mom, we will take good care of you."
During the time that Mr. Wen was in the hospital, all the medical expenses were paid by the owner of the tricycle.
The owner of the tricycle is a vegetable farmer, and his family conditions are indeed not particularly good.
Seeing that the car owner was very serious and knowing that his life was not easy, Wen Nuan and the others just asked him to pay the medical bills and did not pursue the matter further.
While Wen's father was in the hospital, the tricycle owner came several times.
Every time he came, he would not come empty-handed, but always brought some fruits or vegetables he grew himself to express his guilt and gratitude.
At the same time, the young mother and daughter often came to see Dad Wen.
Now everyone is getting to know each other better and they also learn that the young woman's name is Lin Aimei.
Surprisingly, she is also Wen's father's tenant.
Soon, after spending some time in the hospital, Dad Wen was finally discharged.
When the doctor officially announced that he could be discharged today, Wen's father said excitedly: "That's great, thank you doctor!"
His face was filled with a joyful smile, as if he had been reborn.
Then, he hurriedly urged Wen Nuan and Wen's mother: "Pack your things for me quickly. I will be discharged from the hospital this afternoon."
At this moment, Dad Wen felt as happy as a bird in a cage regaining its freedom.
The time he spent in the hospital was really suffocating for him.
Every day I face white walls, the pungent smell of disinfectant and the sounds of various medical equipment. There is no warmth and comfort at home.
Mother Wen rolled her eyes at Father Wen in annoyance and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Didn't you show off your ability at the beginning? Now you are in a hurry to get out again."
Dad Wen lowered his head slightly, like a child who had done something wrong, with an ingratiating smile on his face.
He rubbed his hands lightly, leaned forward slightly, and said quickly: "Oh, isn't this over? Let it be over. Don't mention it again."
After saying that, he reached out and gently held Wen Ma's hand. Although those hands were a little rough, they were full of warmth.
His eyes were fixed on Wen Ma, his eyes full of sincerity and expectation.
Dad Wen knew that his behavior this time made Mom Wen very worried, but he did not regret his choice.
Now he just wanted to go home quickly and spend more time with Mother Wen to make up for the shock and hardship she had endured during this period.
His body was shaking slightly, as if he was a little impatient, but he didn't dare to show it too obviously.
When Mother Wen saw Father Wen's cautious look, her anger subsided a lot. She sighed helplessly and started to pack Father Wen's belongings for discharge with Wen Nuan.
After returning home, Dad Wen's face was filled with joy that was difficult to conceal.
He rubbed his hands excitedly and said quickly, "Wife, go and help me get my treasure out."
Dad Wen is addicted to tea, and not drinking tea for a day is a torture for him.
During his days in the hospital, without the company of tea, he always felt that something was missing in his life.
At this moment, he couldn't wait to make a cup of hot tea and enjoy the familiar taste.
After hearing what Father Wen said, Mother Wen couldn't help but said unhappily, "I think you're not homesick, you're more likely to be missing your tea."
As he spoke, he walked towards the tea cabinet.
Her steps were a little hurried, and there was obviously a hint of resentment in her.
But despite this, she still went to get tea set and tea leaves for Wen's father as requested.
Father Wen said flatteringly: "I know my wife treats me best."
After that, he rubbed his hands again and said to Wen Ma, "I want the Puning in early spring. It smells delicious."
Mother Wen came over with tea sets and tea leaves and placed them heavily on the table. "You only know how to drink your tea, and you don't even think about how worried I have been during this period of time."
Dad Wen hurried forward and took Mom Wen's hand, "I know I was wrong. I will never let you worry so much again. Come, let's have a cup of tea together and enjoy the feeling of being home."
Mother Wen rolled her eyes at him, but the expression on her face also eased a little, "Drink, drink, drink, all you know is drink."
Father Wen smiled and began to skillfully fiddle with the tea set, boiling water, washing tea leaves, and brewing tea in one go. Soon, the fragrance of tea filled the entire living room.
Dad Wen poured a cup of tea and handed it to Mom Wen, "Try it. This early spring Puning tastes really good."
Mother Wen took the teacup, took a sip, and nodded slightly, "Not bad."
Mother Wen continued, "Don't think I won't be angry with you just because of this. You scared me this time. If you act so impulsively again, I will show you how I will deal with you."
She raised her chin slightly, with a hint of warning in her eyes.
Father Wen quickly put down his teacup, bowed with both hands, and said in a flattering manner: "I won't dare to do that again. I promise to think twice before I act in the future and never let you worry again."
His eyes were full of sincerity, as if he was making a solemn oath.
Mother Wen looked at Father Wen's appearance, and her anger subsided a lot, but she still deliberately said with a stern face: "Remember what you said. If it happens again, I will not forgive you."
Father Wen nodded repeatedly, "Of course, of course, I will definitely remember it."
He picked up the teacup again and handed it to Mother Wen, "Wife, don't be angry. Come, drink some more tea to calm down."
Mother Wen took the teacup and snorted softly, but the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a barely perceptible smile.
After a while, Wen Nuan called out, "Dad, it's time to eat."
As she spoke, she placed a bowl of pig's trotter soup in front of Wen's father.
Dad Wen looked at the pot of pig's trotter soup with his eyes widened as exaggeratedly as copper bells and his face full of disbelief.
"Oh, my girl, we are now arguing with pig's feet. I don't know if you are sick of looking at this big white pig's foot, but I am sick of looking at it."
After saying this, he showed a bitter face, as if what was in front of him was not a delicious pig's trotter soup, but a bowl of bitter medicine that was hard to swallow.
Wen Nuan has been cooking pig's trotter soup for him for half a month.
At first, Dad Wen ate with gusto, but no matter how good the food is, you can't stand eating it every day.
Now, he felt his stomach churn whenever he saw pig's trotter soup.
"I'm tired of eating all the delicious food." Dad Wen muttered softly.
Wen Nuan said unhappily, "How can you make up for it if you don't eat more pig's feet? Next time you break your arm or your other leg, I will buy you another pig's trotter and another pig's foot to stew together."
As she spoke, Wen Nuan folded her hands across her chest, with a hint of anger in her eyes.
She felt angry when she recalled how worried she was when Wen's father was injured.
After hearing this, Father Wen felt nervous, for he knew that these two women were looking for him to settle scores.
He smiled awkwardly and quickly picked up the spoon, "Hey, I'll eat it. I can eat it. This pig's trotter soup is delicious."
As he said this, he took a big sip and almost choked.
Mother Wen looked at Father Wen's embarrassment and couldn't help laughing out loud.
But after laughing, she looked at Father Wen seriously and said, "Don't be so reckless in the future. Look how scared you made us."
Father Wen nodded repeatedly, "I know, I know. I will be careful next time."
If something like this happens again, he will still do the same thing.
