I Woke My Vegetative Husband up After Booktransmigrating-Chapter 33
The Breakfast Storm
When the spoon was about to reach Yao Zizhou’s mouth, however, she stopped and turned to hand the congee over to Miao Ruiming. “Doctor Miao, this is made by our kitchen staff. Can you help me take a look and see if it’s suitable for vegetative people? If there’s anything that’s not suitable, we’ll quickly improve it.”
Miao Ruiming took the bowl, stirred it with a spoon, and smelled it.
Yao Ziyang’s hands slowly clenched. He thought that Miao Ruiming was just taking a whiff, so he certainly would not find anything wrong...
To think that Miao Ruiming would then try it in the next second! 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚
Yao Ziyang quickly cut in, “Doctor Miao, wait a moment! My brother likes cleanliness, so the food prepared for him can only pass his lips and no one else’s. I can ask the kitchen to make you another bowl. ”
Miao Ruiming frowned slightly and ignored Yao Ziyang’s words. He put a drop of the congee on the back of his hand with the spoon and tasted it with his mouth. This way, he did not have to touch the spoon with his mouth.
Ming Liuyi was also very nervous.
Yao Ziyang’s hands trembled with anger, but he still kept his cool. ‘With such a small amount, he definitely wouldn’t notice anything.’
In the next second, Miao Ruiming said, “The rice is crushed finely, and the taste is light. There’s no problem eating it this way.”
Yao Ziyang heaved a sigh of relief.
However, Miao Ruiming continued, “It’s just that this time, the yam is not that fresh, and lacks taste. The nutritional value will also be affected. Mr. Yao’s diet is limited right now, every ounce of nutrition is precious. It’s better to make another bowl.”
Yao Ziyang hurriedly said, “Hurry up and take it downstairs, what’s wrong with the kitchen?”
Ming Liuyi also let out a sigh of relief. She had been afraid that Miao Ruiming would not notice the problem. She was also worried that something out of her control would happen again, so she quickly said, “It will take time for the kitchen to make another bowl. Let’s go have breakfast first.”
Miao Ruiming had noticed that there was something wrong with the bowl of Chinese yam congee, and Ming Liuyi had obviously let him find out on purpose. However, he also realized that Ming Liuyi did not want to continue the subject, so he refrained from saying anything more.
After everyone was seated, the kitchen began sending out the dishes.
Xiao Fan initially wanted to serve breakfast with the other staff, but Ming Liuyi had given her a look and asked her to stay behind. Instead, Ming Liuyi said to Xiao Xue, “Thank you for your hard work. Don’t let the guests wait too long, and start serving the food.” She also explained to everyone, “Xiao Xue has been in charge of these things recently. Xiao Fan has already worked hard enough to take care of Zizhou and me. It’s all thanks to Ziyang’s compassion that he arranged us such a capable helper.”
Yao Ziyang feigned calmness on the surface as he nodded, but his heart was filled with suspicion. He was unsure of whether Ming Liuyi was doing it on purpose, but she was definitely trying to clear herself of any ties with the kitchen staff. He could only hope that the latter would not mess up.
When Yao Gui heard Ming Liuyi’s words, he glanced at Yao Ziyang a few more times.
After a while, Xiao Xue served everyone a bowl of chicken soup noodles.
Yao Ziyang was about to explain, but Yao Gui flew into a rage, “There is a distinguished guest here! A bowl of noodles is just being neglectful. Didn’t the kitchen make breakfast?”
Yao Ziyang’s eyelids twitched. “I heard that Doctor Miao likes to eat noodles, so I had the kitchen prepare this. Of course, it’s not just one bowl of noodles. Xiao Xue, bring out the other breakfast dishes.” 𝐟re𝐞w𝐞𝒃𝓃𝒐𝐯𝚎𝒍.c૦𝚖
After receiving Yao Ziyang’s instructions, Xiao Xue left hesitantly, which made Yao Gui frown again.
During this time, because he was worried that Ming Liuyi would try to exchange the food meant for Yao Zizhou, all the other dishes were the kinds that were unsuitable for a patient. It was just that, when all these were served to the current guests at the table, everyone’s expressions were complicated.
There was steamed chicken feet, beef chow fun, sweet and sour pork ribs, lotus leaf chicken...
Ming Liuyi picked up her chopsticks and, out of habit, took some food for Yao Gui first before she began eating.
Because Miao Ruiming was still there, Yao Gui ate the chicken soup noodles with a sullen face and did not touch the other dishes on the table. After all, he was old, and these other dishes were not easy for him to digest, let alone a patient. Moreover, no one should be eating such greasy food in the morning.
Miao Ruiming actually did not mind as long as there was something to eat. But in his head, he was laughing. A breakfast like this was definitely not meant for the sickly Yao Zizhou, it almost seemed too deliberate. The Yao family’s internal conflict was even more intense than he had imagined.
By the time everyone was done eating, the new bowl of congee that the kitchen had prepared for Yao Zizhou was ready.
Ming Liuyi looked at the new bowl of Chinese yam congee that was brought in, and her eyes filled with joy. She invited Miao Ruiming to feed Yao Zizhou.
After she and Miao Ruiming left the dining room, Yao Gui finally spoke, “Ziyang, you’re already busy enough with the company, don’t interfere with this villa’s matters. Look at the breakfast you prepared, what do you think it says about us...”
