Chapter 1526: A medical miracle
Actually, the waiting time passed quite quickly. The dinner time of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant was only two hours in total. Moreover, he didn’t need to wait at the door all the time after he got the number.
Therefore, Rachel took the three of them for a walk along Taoxi road during this period of time. They even saw lots of meat crawling on broth.
This made Sharon very happy, and she even played with the soup in high spirits.
Broth was a dog spirit, so it was quite cooperative in the face of Sharon’s teasing. This was because it had gotten several extra cans of dog and cat food.
There was now a pet supply store on Taoxi road, and the canned food for dogs and cats were bought by Manion himself.
After the group of people came back from shopping, they waited for about half an hour before it was the trio’s turn to enter the restaurant for dinner.
Since Rachel was working, she didn’t sit down. She only entered the restaurant to help the three of them order.
Of course, since Sharon was in a wheelchair, the customers at the four-person table gave up their table without a word as soon as the four of them entered the restaurant.
“I only need three seats. I don’t have a queue.” Rachel said quickly.
After hearing his words, one of the young men turned back to the small table and sat down with his bowl.
“Thank you,” he said. “Thank you, professor!” Manion and professor Herbert thanked him politely in stiff Chinese.
Even Sharon smiled and nodded at the people who gave up their seats to express her gratitude.
“This place is really small.” Manion said.
“It is indeed surprisingly small.” Professor Herbert nodded in agreement.
“Since there is only Mr. Yuan Zhou in the restaurant, it is relatively small.” Rachel explained with a smile.
“The menu is on the table and on the back. Order and pay before you eat.” Zhou Jia went up and greeted him.
“Alright, I understand.” Rachel nodded and translated the words for the three of them.
The three of them didn’t have any objections to this order, so they all picked up the menu and looked at it.
Manion and professor Herbert were very conservative. They only ordered the well-known Wellington steak and Denmark roast pork. Both of them ordered quickly.
Sharon, on the other hand, was at a loss as she held the menu. After the two of them finished ordering, she asked,””Do I need to abstain from eating? the dishes on the menu look good.”
Sharon sounded relaxed, but she was actually a little worried. After all, she really didn’t have much of an appetite.
Fortunately, although the store was small, there was no smoke or fire, nor was there the smell of food. She always felt that the food smelled a little greasy, and she had no appetite at all.
However, as soon as she entered the store, she found that there was no smell at all. There was only the flavorless smell that she was most comfortable with, or rather, the familiar smell of herself, lingering at the tip of her nose.
This made her feel comfortable, but she couldn’t find anything she wanted to eat after looking at the thick menu. She didn’t want her friend and husband to worry, so she asked this.
“Oh, don’t worry, Sharon. You can eat whatever you want.” Professor Herbert said in a relaxed tone.
“Yes, Sharon. Do you need my advice?” Manion said considerately.
“Of course he’s the best.” Sharon nodded.
“How about this corn rice? I heard that the congee cooked by Chinese people is very soft and sweet. I think you will like it. ” Manion asked as he pointed at a bowl of light porridge.
“Okay, this one then. After all, I’ve always liked corn soup.” Sharon nodded.
“Actually, this is corn porridge, not corn soup. It’s a kind of food cooked with rice and corn.” Rachel explained as briefly as she could.
“It’s fine. I think I can accept it. ” Sharon said to Rachel.
“Alright, I’ll place the orders for the three of you.” Rachel nodded her head and then called Zhou Jia to place the order.
After the order was placed, Rachel went out of the shop and waited outside.
Of course, the three paid in US dollars without exception.
The three of them didn’t really care about the price. They only hoped that Sharon would be able to eat more.
Meanwhile, Herbert was thinking about what kind of magic the food here had, and whether it could really make the patient of pancreatic cancer who had no appetite eat something.
Yuan Zhou didn’t let the three of them wait. In just a little while, their dishes were served one after another. However, both Herbert and Manion were not interested in what was in front of them at all. They were just staring at Sharon’s movements secretly, waiting for her to make a move.
Sharon ordered a simple bowl of corn porridge. The light and simple corn porridge was served in a small white porcelain bowl.
The bowl was very small, the kind that even a girl could hold with one hand. Sharon’s bony hand gently touched the wall of the bowl, and as the warm feeling hit her, a faint smell of grain slowly drifted into her nose.
Then, Sharon smelled the corn that she was familiar with. The corn was different from the others. It smelled like the corn that had just been plucked from the corn stem and peeled off the leaves.
The fragrance was light and comfortable. The congee in the bowl was thick with a layer of beautiful rice oil floating on it. The rice grains glowed with a beautiful and warm color under the soft light of the restaurant, and the Golden corn was embellished in it.
“The smell is very good, and it looks very good.” Sharon said as she picked up the spoon.
“Then, quickly try it and see if it’s the taste you like.” Manion suppressed his excitement and said with a calm face.
“Yes, Sharon, try it. It does look very good.” Professor Herbert chimed in.
“Alright,” he said. Sharon nodded, then scooped up half a spoonful of porridge and slowly put it into her mouth.
As the spoon got closer to her mouth, the aroma of the rice and corn became stronger, but it didn’t make her uncomfortable at all. Instead, it made Sharon feel the long-lost urge to drool and eat.
This made Sharon’s movements a little faster, and she directly fed half a spoonful of porridge into her mouth.
As soon as the congee entered his mouth, the fragrance of the rice filled his mouth. The congee was soft and smooth, and it rushed down his throat with the refreshing fragrance of the rice. It then entered his stomach, making him feel warm and warm.
It was a very comfortable feeling, and Sharon couldn’t help but chew on it. As soon as she chewed, she bit through the tender corn kernels, and the kernels instantly burst. She immediately felt the sweet aroma of corn.
The taste of the corn mixed with the porridge’s aroma greatly soothed his bland and bitter taste buds, and a sweet feeling filled the tip of his tongue.
“Oh, not bad.” Sharon was a little surprised. Then, she scooped another spoonful of porridge into her mouth.
Manion and professor Herbert exchanged a look, their eyes filled with surprise. Manion couldn’t help but pinch the corner of the table.
Meanwhile, Dr. Herbert watched as Sharon fed him the congee slowly and non-stop. He mumbled softly,””This is a medical miracle.”
Yes, it was not a miracle. Sharon was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. She could not eat because of the illness, but she could still eat here.
Although being able to eat could not cure cancer, it could at least reduce pain and allow the body to absorb some nutrients instead of relying on fluid transfusions.
