“What should we do now?” Mozhi and Zhou Jinnan looked at each other.
“Let’s wait for someone from the Qin family to come,” Zhou Jinnan was also speechless, “I told you to talk nonsense, now it’s good that it doesn’t work and it’s all bad.”
Mozhi said he would not take the blame: “How can you blame me? His injuries were like that at the time, didn’t you expect this to happen?”
The black tiger-the prince silently watched Zhou Jinnan and Mozhi arguing and blaming each other, and fell into deep self-doubt. Why did he think Zhou Jinnan looked so reliable just now?
The reason for Zhou Jinnan and Mozhi’s dispute was that he had just woken up and sat on the bed, with an innocent and curious expression. If this expression appeared on a child, it would be very cute. But unfortunately, the one with this expression was a sharp and cold handsome guy, so the cute expression became funny, but… good-looking people are still good-looking even when they are funny.
After Zhou Jinnan communicated with Qin Fangyu that day, they temporarily reached an agreement that Qin Kai would be taken care of by Zhou Jinnan before someone from the Qin family came. Not mentioning Zhou Shudi’s surprise when Zhou Jinnan brought back a patient after leaving for a trip, the more troublesome thing for them at the moment is that Qin Kai has lost his memory.
His memory remains at the age of six. Even if Zhou Jinnan mobilizes all his life’s knowledge, he can only treat it slowly. Moreover, Qin Kai’s situation is not ordinary amnesia, but the sequelae of mental riot. Mental riot is a precursor to mental collapse. It is surprising that Qin Kai survived with his own willpower without help. However, if it is not controlled, Qin Kai will soon face another mental collapse. Qin Kai, who only has the cognition of a six-year-old, definitely does not have enough willpower to survive.
Because of the sudden change of Qin Kai’s amnesia, Zhou Jinnan had to let Prince contact Qin Fangyu again through the special communication channel. Qin Fangyu heard about Qin Kai’s amnesia and immediately said that he would arrange people and doctors to come as soon as possible. Before the Qin family made a decision, the Qin family would not allow him to do anything.
Zhou Jinnan was also unwilling to take the initiative to intervene excessively in Qin Kai’s physical condition, but Zhou Jinnan needed the Qin family to pay attention to his ability. After weighing the two, Zhou Jinnan privately tailored a slow treatment process for Qin Kai, which could not only allow the doctor sent by the Qin family to trace Qin Kai’s current poor physical condition, but also ensure that the Qin family could see the visible effect of his treatment plan after arriving at Aquamarine Star.
Zhou Jinnan brought a bowl of decoction from the kitchen and called Qin Kai, “Drink the medicine.” The decoction was made using the spiritual medicine in his cave by Mozhi in advance in the cave. Then he combined it with the spiritual food specially set by Zhou Jinnan. It was a two-pronged approach.
Qin Kai looked at the medicine soup in Zhou Jinnan’s bowl with a deep hatred: “I don’t drink it!” This potion was black and exuded a choking herbal smell. It was definitely very unpalatable! He didn’t want it!
“It’s not up to you,” Zhou Jinnan raised his eyebrows and said, “Prince, hold him down and give him the medicine.”
Prince had already learned that Zhou Jinnan’s decoction was to suppress mental collapse, so he cooperated very well and held down the weak Qin Kai, allowing Zhou Jinnan to feed Qin Kai a bowl of medicine.
“Okay, after drinking the medicine, you can start eating.” Zhou Jinnan put away the medicine bowl with satisfaction and asked Zhou Shudi to bring the spiritual food specially made for Qin Kai.
Zhou Shudi guessed that the person Zhou Jinnan picked up was not ordinary, but he never expected that this person was the son of Marshal Qin Fangyu. At first he was a little scared, but after finding that Qin Kai was now like a child, he became more open-minded and treated him as an ordinary patient.
The bowl Zhou Shudi brought was about the size of two fists, and it was filled with steaming meat porridge. Qin Kai’s eyes lit up when he smelled the fragrance of the meat porridge. He stared at the bowl in Zhou Shudi’s hand intently, and even reached out to take it.
He didn’t even use a spoon. He held the bowl with both hands and drank it directly. He sighed “It tastes so good”, he didn’t have the spare time to speak.
This bowl of porridge doesn’t look like much, but Zhou Jinnan personally spent more than two hours in the kitchen to cook it. Weak patients need to eat light food at the beginning, usually liquid food or nutrient solution. Qin Kai has a good physical foundation, so Zhou Jinnan cut thin shreds of meat into this bowl of porridge. The rice for cooking porridge is the spiritual rice planted by Zhou Jinnan in the cave. After soaking for an hour, it is injected with soup made from spiritual bamboo shoots, pig bones and marrow, and then slowly simmered in a casserole over low heat.
The meat porridge tastes fresh as soon as it enters the mouth. The thick meat porridge is cooked just right. Every grain of rice is cooked until it is full and slightly cracked, exuding the most enticing rice fragrance. Zhou Jinnan mixed a lot of medicinal herbs into the meat porridge, which were also chopped finely and cooked with the rice until they were indistinguishable from each other. The light bitter taste was not covered up, and after drinking it, there was a lingering sweetness in the mouth, which made people have endless aftertaste. After drinking a bowl of porridge, Qin Kai’s expression relaxed a lot. His mind, which was originally in pain and wanted to scream at any time, ushered in a long-lost tranquility. All his thoughts were emptied and no longer needed to think.
Quiet Qin Kai fell asleep soon after drinking the porridge, which made Prince worried again. Fortunately, Zhou Jinnan said that this was only the first time trying the medicine, and his body was gradually adapting to the effect. The reaction would not be so strong next time.
Prince watched Qin Kai finish a bowl of porridge with envy. The sense of smell of animals is often more acute than that of humans, not to mention the more superior beasts. Prince knew that this was a rare good thing just by smelling the fragrance, and it was not just a delicacy. It looked at Zhou Jinnan with envy. Since Zhou Jinnan was responsible for Qin Kai before the Qin family came, then as the master’s exotic beast, Zhou Jinnan should also be responsible for its food, right?
Zhou Jinnan smiled: “Want to eat?”
Prince nodded vigorously.
“Okay, I’ll put it on the account and settle it when your Qin family comes.” Zhou Jinnan was easy to talk to when someone was willing to pay the bill.
He turned back to the kitchen, and the food for Prince was naturally different from that for Qin Kai. Considering that the appetite of exotic beasts is very big, Zhou Jinnan directly took out a suckling sheep, which was brought back by Zhou Shudi when he ordered from the farm yesterday.
The sheep body is pierced with an iron sieve, and the spices for removing the gamey smell are evenly applied to each part and stuffed into the sheep’s stomach. Then it is directly put into the oven and baked for ten minutes before being taken out. The spices are applied to the sheep again, and then the best honey is brushed on it. It is tightly wrapped with tin foil and put into the oven again for baking. During the baking process, Zhou Jinnan will also judge the taste of the roasted whole sheep according to the aroma and adjust the heat.
After peeling off the outer layer of tin foil, the gamey smell of the lamb is eliminated. The lamb inside is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The meat attached to the bones comes off with a sip of the mouth, and it does not require much effort. The bones and tendons at the joints of the lamb legs have a wonderful soft and glutinous taste.
Zhou Jinnan divided the portions for himself, Zhou Shudi and Mozhi. The rest went into Prince’s stomach.
Prince only then realized how exquisite Zhou Jinnan’s cooking skills were. If every meal was of this standard, he would want to stay here forever.
Aquamarine Star and the Capital Star are separated by six star regions. Even if you take the fastest warship, it takes at least half a month to get there. Huo Xuan was secretly taken to the Qin family’s main house by Qin Fangyu, and when he came out, he had an additional task to bring Qin Kai back.
He did not stop at any time along the way, and took two top doctors that Qin Fangyu had already selected, before finally arriving at the Aquamarine Star 20 days later.
Huo Xuan did not believe a word when Qin Fangyu said that Qin Kai had received emergency treatment, and that a teenager said he could make Qin Kai fully recover. In fact, Huo Xuan knew more about Qin Kai’s physical condition than Qin Fangyu, his father. Before Qin Kai disappeared, he had a slight sign of mental collapse. This sudden amnesia must be related to Qin Kai’s mental turmoil. Perhaps at this time, Qin Kai’s mental collapse has begun.
However, in the interstellar, the method to cure mental collapse has not yet appeared!
Huo Xuan went to Zhou’s house according to the address given by Qin Fangyu. The person who opened the door for him was a young man with elegant manners. He was slightly stunned, and soon went in under the guidance of Zhou Shudi as if nothing had happened.
Zhou Shudi knew in advance that someone from the Qin family of the capital star would come today. When he heard someone knocking on the door, he realized that someone had arrived. He welcomed the person in and took him to the living room: “Qin Kai and Prince are having lunch. Do you want to eat together?”
Huo Xuan nodded indifferently. After turning the corner, he was stunned as he saw Qin Kai who was fighting for food with Prince and a little snow ferret.
This scene is completely different from what he imagined! Didn’t they say that Qin Kai was seriously injured and bedridden? Who is this lively person? ! ! !
During this period, Zhou Jinnan had the final say in the kitchen at home. Zhou Shudi was only allowed to help and watch from the side, so everyone had a treat.
Today’s lunch menu was Deng Ying beef jerky, three fresh delicacies, pork ribs and lotus root soup, and crab meat lion head in clear soup. Qin Kai also had a steamed knife fish and a bowl of porridge made by Zhou Jinnan specifically for him. Zhou Jinnan would change the specific ingredients and medicinal materials in the porridge every day according to Qin Kai’s physical changes.
Deng Ying beef jerky was made directly by Zhou Jinnan recently. He made a big pot. When he wanted to eat it, he could just cut out a part and serve it on the plate. Although it took a lot of effort to make, making so much at one time would save trouble for many days. If you are lazy and don’t want to cut it, you can tear off a large piece of beef jerky like Mozhi did, and eat it as a snack by tearing it into strips. In this way, Mozhi has almost solved the inventory made by Zhou Jinnan last time. When Prince saw how Mozhi ate, he immediately followed suit, calculating every day who ate more, him or Mozhi.
Zhou Jinnan used the most common method to make pork ribs and lotus root soup. There are five mouths to feed at home, including a big eater like Prince. If every dish was as troublesome as the beef jerky, Zhou Jinnan would not have to worry about anything else all day and would just stay in the kitchen.
Zhou Jinnan’s control over ingredients makes even the most ordinary methods make a home-cooked dish delicious.
