Chapter 277 Chicken Soup Jelly
It was not only her coach and teammates who came to Shanghai with He Xiufang, but also her father He Zhong.
He Zhong is an honest farmer, tense and serious, serious and deep, deep and melancholy, melancholy and stubborn.
He and He Xiufang went to the Shanghai Stock Exchange on the same day, but he left the house a day earlier.
Seeing her father at the exit, carrying a snakeskin bag and smoking anxiously, He Xiufang burst into tears...
The last time she saw her father was when she was training in the team, and it was the time when she was most uneasy about her fate.
This time, seeing her father again, she is already a medalist in a national competition. Although it is only a bronze medal, although it is only a national track and field championship, she can stay in the team, and the biggest crisis has been resolved.
And my father seemed to be like this since he was a child.
"Didn't you buy a high-speed rail ticket for the green leather car you're still riding in?" He Xiufang felt that she was the most rural in the team, but when she stood beside her father, she realized that she was far away from her hometown.
He Zhong said vaguely in his hometown dialect: "How many times the money is short, I will refund it."
"The high-speed rail will arrive in a few hours, and the people in the next family have taken the high-speed rail when they go out to work..." He Xiufang's voice unconsciously regained some of her local accent.
He Zhong said disdainfully: "They love to build, so let them build, I don't sit."
"Uncle He." The coach came up to shake hands at this time. He was ten years younger than He Zhong and often talked on the phone.
He Zhong saw the coach, put on a simple and honest smile on his face again, and said, "I'm going to trouble you again."
"See what you said..."
He Zhong held the coach's hand tightly, and said: "If it wasn't for the girl who won the medal this time, I would be too embarrassed to come to see you. In order to train him, you have wasted several years and didn't get any results. Shit It’s useless and a waste of the country’s money.”
The coach couldn't keep up, so He Xiufang took out the bronze medal from her neck, handed it to her father, and said, "Dad, look at my medal."
"Good! Good!" He Zhong held the medal with one hand, touched it, but tightened the bag on his shoulder, and said, "Let's go first, I'm carrying something on my back, I'll look at it later."
"Dad, you said you wanted to find a kitchen, so I rented you a house..." He Xiufang paused, and then quickly said, "It's not too expensive. The cheap house I rent is now called a short-term rental."
"As long as there is a kitchen." He Zhong didn't scold anyone this time.
He Xiufang was stunned for a moment, and said, "There are kitchens, and there are kitchen utensils."
"It's okay to rent for a few days, right?"
"You can stay for as long as you want." He Xiufang was paid in the track and field team. Although it was not much, she usually had no expenses. The team took care of food, drink, and toilet, but she saved a little money. However, she is also reluctant to let her rent a house in Shanghai, but she is very willing to rent a house for her father.
He Zhong nodded: "That's fine, let's go there quickly."
After taking the bus all the way to the rented short-term rental house, He Xiufang realized why her father wanted a house with a kitchen, and why he was in a hurry to come here.
He Zhong actually brought wild vegetables wrapped in snakeskin.
"Dad, you brought so many shepherd's purses...you just want to bring some, just some." He Xiufang grabbed a handful of wild vegetables, and her heart felt warm for a while. When I was young, I didn't have any vegetables to eat. Shepherd's purse and other wild vegetables were just The most common food.
But He Zhong hummed and said, "Whoever brought it for you, I'll bring it to your leaders and coaches, and ask the doctors to eat a little. You just have to taste a couple of bites. Go, buy a chicken."
"You want to make chicken soup skin jelly?" He Xiufang understood immediately.
In my hometown, chicken soup skin jelly is considered a big dish. It is made by chopping shepherd's purse into powder, mixing it into flour, cooking it into a paste, freezing it, cutting it into small pieces, and then pouring chicken soup on it.
It seems to be a very special snack, but when you think about it carefully, it is nothing more than an enhanced version of Fan Zhongyan's porridge, and the pickled vegetables in Fan Zhongyan's porridge are replaced with wild vegetables.
Adding chicken soup is something that has only happened in recent years.
He Xiufang said in embarrassment: "Dad, people don't eat this anymore."
"Whether people eat or not is their business.
Whether we do it or not is our business. "He Zhong waved his hand and got busy, only sneaking a glance at He Xiufang's ankle when she was going out.
"He Xiufang's Achilles tendon is in good condition. The team doctor said that she has fully recovered, so we let her play." The coach knew He Zhong's character and explained it specially.
He Zhong didn't want to admit it, he snorted twice, and said: "Everyone in the revolution knew that a minor injury would not go to the front line of fire. I am a delicate girl."
The coach could only laugh apologetically. He Xiufang, who weighs 80 kilograms, has had a hard time recovering in the past few months, and how difficult it is to retrain, and it is difficult for him to explain to He Zhongyi one by one.
the next day.
He Xiufang and others came to the Bone Joint and Sports Medicine Center for an examination.
He Xiufang was deliberately pulled out, and a series of reexaminations were done.
The leader of the track and field team looked at this scene cheerfully, with relief on his face. Nowadays, the city's track and field team has relatively sufficient funds, it just depends on how it is used, such as this kind of targeted physical examination, medical treatment that proves to be effective, they are all willing to pay.
Ling Ran didn't show up until the afternoon, got the inspection report, and watched it carefully.
"Looking at it now, it's completely recovered." Ling Ran looked at He Xiufang and said, "How do you feel now?"
"Okay, I can't run out of strength." He Xiufang tried to show her courage of 80 kilograms.
Ling Ran curled his lips, that's not what he meant by asking, but it's just innocuous.
Ling Ran conveniently gave him another physical examination, even if the re-examination was completed.
He Xiufang's situation was clear from the beginning. The simple Achilles tendon was not completely ruptured. If it was sutured and healed, then there would be no problem. If the healing is not good...she would not be able to win the medal, because the Achilles tendon with a problematic suture, even the high-strength tendon I can't even survive the training, let alone participate in the competition so quickly.
Ji Tianlu waited for Ling Ran to finish checking, and curiously took the film to watch.
He is a real bone and joint expert, and a group of people with the strongest joint replacement skills in China. Now watching the film, he is very surprised.
"It's really all right." Ji Tianlu clicked his tongue, only three or four months, according to the normal level of Achilles tendon repair, whether he can train is a matter of opinion.
The leader of the track and field team still trusts the chief physician Ji Tianlu more. Hearing his diagnosis at this time, he is happy: "It's good, it's good, the veteran is back, and there is another general."
In the city's track and field team, if you can win a national medal, you are a first-line player. Not only will you not quit the team, but you will also be entrusted with important responsibilities. Of course, if you can't prove yourself, then the second-tier players will retire when they reach the age, there is no reason to say.
While everyone was happy, He Zhong took out a large stack of aluminum alloy lunch boxes from his backpack and said with a smile, "Leaders, doctors, I am He Xiufang's father. Our local specialty snacks, let everyone have a taste, thank you for taking care of my family Xiufang for many years, and thank the doctor for the operation on Xiufang..."
As he said that, he took out the thermos again, and said, "The lunch box contains skin jelly, and the bottle contains chicken soup. Chicken soup is poured with skin jelly. This is our special way of eating..."
He Xiufang was happy, but was suddenly attacked by her father, and it was hard to persuade her, and it was hard to talk about it, so she was extremely nervous for a while.
This is not the first time for the leader of the track and field team to encounter such a scene. The leading deputy director burst out laughing, and said: "The special food sent by the old man all the way, let's try it, He Xiufang, you sit down too , Try it all, try it all, doctors please sit down too, sharpen the knife so that you don’t miss the woodcutter, let’s eat and drink, and then check. By the way, can we eat in this office?”
Naturally, it is not suitable to eat in the consultation room, but as far as the current situation is concerned, Ji Tianlu will only follow the rules unless his head is swollen by a tendon.
"Who the hell, go and bring some chairs, and order bowls and chopsticks from the cafeteria on the operating floor." Ji Tianlu didn't memorize the names of so many residents, so he just pointed to one and dispatched it.
The resident doctor rushed away.
"I bring a lot of lunch boxes." He Zhong chased and shouted, then opened the lunch box with a smile, and showed everyone the chicken soup skin jelly he made.
Ling Ran also sat on the side, looking curiously.
I saw that the green skin jelly in a lunch box was divided into four pieces. He Zhong took out one piece and put it into the empty lunch box. Then he opened the thermos, poured the still hot chicken soup in, and added a little seasoning, and it was finished.
Everyone didn't say much, and each of them got a piece and tasted it silently.
He Xiufang also got a piece at the end, which was some broken green skin jelly, and it still felt sticky and refreshing after eating it.
He Xiufang's tears rolled down and dripped into the cold chicken soup without her noticing it.
