I don’t know if it was because of the cloudy weather, but my husband and I got up earlier than usual this morning. Before half past seven, I had packed up and had breakfast.
The child was only four months old. My mother-in-law had nine gastrointestinal polyps removed and was resting at home temporarily. My mother happened to be at home to help me take care of the child. Mom is really at ease at home, with three meals a day clearly arranged. Afraid that my husband would not be used to eating in the morning, she always prepares multiple plans. In the morning, she asked my husband what he wanted to eat. During the discussion, I couldn't help but feel a lot while I was still breastfeeding in the room.
It was only after I started my own family that I realized that my mother is not only good at cooking and can cook a variety of dishes with good taste, but the most important thing is actually to balance the diet and health of the family members. She gets up early every day and goes to the vegetable market to buy seasonal fruits and vegetables, and asks the fish stall owner what’s good today. Ingredients are a very important step for her to take care of her family’s health. In order to make the family eat more diversely, chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep are served in turns, and occasionally pigeons, rabbits, etc., all kinds of seafood are changed every day, and the amount of vegetables and fruits cannot be less. After we got married, my mother specifically talked to me about grocery shopping. She was afraid that I would just buy food randomly like a headless fly. I repeatedly emphasize that freshness is the first priority, try to buy big fish caught in the deep sea, and try not to eat farmed fish and shrimp... balabala...
I used to find it annoying, but now that I have a child, I look back at these dozens of Living a life that lasts year after year is the most laborious and troublesome thing. Every day, my mother will observe the changes in our skin and see if there is any discomfort in our body, and then the ingredients will be changed accordingly. If you have acne, oral ulcers, or are you suffering from internal heat, drink some yin-nourishing soups and water, and eat more fruits rich in vitamin C. The humidity has been heavy recently, so the whole grain porridge in the morning mainly consists of barley and red beans. Recently, I have been short of energy, so I add some Qi-tonifying herbs to the soup and stew it. Recently, my intestines have been feeling irritated, so I have added fiber-rich green vegetables or bamboo shoots. If my stomach feels uncomfortable, I have boiled millet porridge.
When I was still learning how to read, I always liked to look through a dictionary wrapped in a blue rubber-like leather cover on my mother’s bedside table. I looked at the page numbers in the corners of the pages to learn numbers and looked at the patterns inside. Learn to draw. My mother told me that it was a dictionary of medicinal materials. When she got a little older, when she took me to the book store to buy books, she would bring home two health recipe books. In the early years, it was popular to subscribe to magazines and newspapers, and there were stacks of family doctor magazines at home. (I was extremely impressed. I pointed at menstruation on the sofa and shouted to my mother in the kitchen, asking her what menstruation was. She explained it for a long time and I couldn’t help it. Understand) and family health newspapers.
Of course, because she loves food, she always brings a lot of delicious food when she comes back from outside, including all kinds of cakes, fried foods, and recently popular food. She always said that life is not a spiritual practice, and food should not be let down. She would eat everything, as many varieties as possible, so that this journey in life would not be wasted. (No, while I was writing this, she started cutting the pineapple she just bought again. She really wanted to eat delicious food, and she was blessed with all kinds of magical skills. She just passed by Yupinfang and bought a bunch of food and came back, but Because I got angry today, she stopped buying me fried chicken legs and bought water chestnuts to cool me down [face covering])
Although now my father and I still often make jokes about my mother, saying that if she Doctors, doctors are all going to be laid off. But looking back, I found that my family rarely got sick. I was unfamiliar with hospitals, which made me a little confused when I went to the hospital for prenatal check-ups. The only times I went to the hospital to see a doctor in the middle of the night was probably when I took a greedy bite of a banana that my mother had picked up before going to bed, and then I caught a cold at night and ate too much. I had a stomachache at night and couldn't poop or vomit it out. I went to the provincial hospital's emergency room and the doctor specially prescribed me a weird strawberry-flavored potion (he also told me that my little friends love to drink it, so I'm looking forward to it with all my heart). I took a small sip when I got home and vomited it all out. Maybe my expectations were too high. It didn’t taste good. Later, my dad felt uncomfortable and drank the medicine.) Another time I had a fever and went to a traditional Chinese medicine hospital for an injection in the buttocks. At that time, the family's means of transportation was a motorcycle. Oops, it hurt so much that I couldn't sit on it and couldn't walk. The remaining memory is that my mother didn't sleep a wink all night, and set an alarm clock with intervals of 45 minutes. When the time was up, she gave me a large glass of glucose water to drink, and then I went to the toilet. In the morning, I was fine and normal. Go to school and your homework will not be left behind. But I can’t imagine that my mother, who hasn’t slept much all night, has to go to the wholesale market to purchase goods and returns the next day and then go to the store to guard them. Thinking of this makes me burst into tears [crying]
Mom, you use Hard work has protected the health of me and my father. But the several major surgeries you've had in recent years are probably the accumulation of years of hard work. Maybe it’s because you are so capable, and you don’t feel at ease whatever dad and I do. Really, let us share it for you [laughing and crying] Only by taking good care of your body can you enjoy the happiness of family.
