“Auntie, you don’t have to worry. Experts in cosmetics abroad said my face will be fine. It will heal in a short time.” Lin Pingping didn’t want to worry the old Mrs. Mo, whatever her age.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Mo at last sighed relief, “That’s good, that’s good.” After a pause, she continued: ” Pingping, I hope you won’t hesitate to tell your auntie anything you find difficult!”
Lin Pingping nodded, “Hmm, I know, Auntie.”
Mrs. Mo then asked, “By the way? Is Hong Bin treating you well?” Do your inlaws give you a hard time?”
When Pingping saw her auntie worrying about her, she felt the urge to cry, but she held it in.
“Yes, they are treating me well! Especially Hong Bin. I’m such a beautiful woman he married, he wouldn’t dare to treat me badly.”
She and Hong Bin were in a love marriage. At that time, Hong Bin’s family had nothing. His parents, grandparents, brothers and sisters all lived in a tiny 30 square meter house provided by his father’s office.
When she told Mrs. Mo about this, she was strongly opposed. But in the end, she couldn’t withstand Lin Pingping’s determination.
At their wedding, Mrs. Mo gave them 100,000 yuan in dowry. Lin Pingping used this money to buy a bigger house, help Hong Bin’s brothers and sisters to go to school, and used her connections to help Hong Bin climb the ladder at work. This is where Hong Bin’s success today comes from. But no one in his family remembers her favor.
She loved Hong Bin wholeheartedly, but in the eyes of his family, that was Hong Bin’s talent and even something to be flaunted before others.
“Look at how capable our son is, even the daughter of a rich family insists on marrying him!”
No one knew of her deep affection for Hong Bin hidden behind his talent.
Because of her “reverse dowry” to Hong Bin, she had no status in his family and regardless of her contributions, they thought it was only to be expected.
Unfortunately, Lin Pingping had to silently bear the bitterness, unable to voice it out.
Because she chose this path, she had no reason to go to anyone and complain.
She could only bear it, regardless of how Hong Bin and his family treated her, she could only bear it.
She has to cling to the last bit of her dignity!
Hearing her talk like this, Mrs. Mo was relieved, “Right, marrying you, such a good girl, the Hong Family should count their blessings! Pingping, if you ever suffer any injustice, you mustn’t keep it to yourself. Since your parents passed away early, your uncle and I are your surrogate parents. Speak up, and we will help you stand up for yourself!”
She knew that Pingping’s in-laws were something else; this is why she opposed the marriage back then.
Lin Pingping nodded, “Hmm, don’t worry, Auntie.”
Mrs. Mo continued, “Let’s not just chat, come eat breakfast. Pingping, listen, I recently met a young gifted doctor named Ni Yang. Not only is her cooking delicious, but her medical skill is also excellent. She is the one who cured Xiaodie.”
Lin Pingping exclaimed surprisingly, “Really?”
As she opened the insulated box, Mrs. Mo replied,” Of course! Would I lie to you?”
As soon as the lid of the insulated box was lifted, an overwhelming aroma filled the air.
Looking at the food inside, Lin Pingping said, ” Auntie, have your teeth been feeling better lately, and are your eyes feeling better as well? You hardly have dizzy spells, and you seem to be in a better spirit, isn’t it?”
Mrs. Mo was surprised, ” Yes, yes, yes! How did you know?”
Lin Pingping smiled, ” I could tell by looking at the food.”
“The food?” Mrs. Mo was puzzled, then she said, “Right, right! Ni Yang does cook delicious meal!”
Lin Pingping continued, ” Auntie, you might not know, but the food is not only delicious, there’s a lot of thought behind it.”
Mrs. Mo asked in confusion, “What do you mean?”
Lin Pingping picked up her chopsticks and pointed at one of the dishes. “Look at this. It has mushrooms and shrimp. Mushrooms are polysaccharides that can prevent dental plaque, and shrimp are rich in calcium and can strengthen teeth.”
“And look at this chili fried lettuce! Western medical research has found that lettuce is beneficial to the five internal organs, tonifies the muscles and bones, promotes heat, opens up the meridians, removes oral odor, and improves eyesight.”
“And check out this Albizia porridge. Albizia has the effect of relieving irritability, alleviating depression, calming restlessness, regulating mood, and promoting mental clarity!”
As a western medicine practitioner herself, Lin Pingping could tell at a glance what benefits certain foods provided.
From this, she could tell that the chef’s thoughts were meticulous. The meal she prepared was suitable for seniors, and she must have done some research beforehand.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Mo was stunned, “Does the food really have all those benefits?”
“Yes!” Lin Pingping nodded, “Do you think I’ve been practicing medicine all these years for nothing?”
Mrs. Mo’s eyes were filled with surprise.
No wonder she has been feeling healthier lately!
The food must have been well combined.
Ni Yang really put a lot of effort into it!
The most touching point to Mrs. Mo was, that Ni Yang had never tried to earn credit for this in front of her. If Lin Pingping hadn’t mentioned that, she wouldn’t have known, that there was such insight hidden in ordinary food!
Ni Yang is truly a blessing to their family.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Mo couldn’t help but smile again.
Lin Pingping continued, “By the way, Auntie, I heard that something happened to Xianxian, is she doing better now?”
