Chapter 16 - Anorexia

Mother Zhang found that she couldn't even pull her son away.

This would have been fine in the past, but now my son is so skinny that he's just skin and bones, and I can't even pull him up?
"Son, let's go quickly, otherwise I'm afraid you can't bear it."

Zhang Yang suddenly grabbed Zhang's mother's hand and said, "Mom, I want to go over and take a look."

Mother Zhang was shocked. "Son, what nonsense are you talking about? If you see all that food... all that food, won't you throw up? There are so many people here, and if you do, you'll kill us both."

Zhang Yang's eyes sparkled as he said, "Mom, I can actually smell that smell, but I don't feel like vomiting at all. Besides..."

He pointed at the burly men who were showing off their food with big mouthfuls of food: "And watching them eat like that, I actually feel like I'm a little hungry too."

Mother Zhang looked at Wang Fan’s rice noodle roll stall again. Dozens of people eating together with big mouthfuls really gave people the feeling of a big appetite. Even she felt a little hungry.

But he still said worriedly: "Son, can you really do it?"

Zhang Yang nodded vigorously, and then took the lead and walked towards Wang Fan.

……

Zhang Qing felt that she must be crazy at this moment.

She actually thought that the food she bought on the street for 12 yuan was better than the beautifully presented French meal that cost thousands of yuan!

This is impossible!

The ingredients in this rice noodle roll are obviously very simple, and the most expensive ingredient is those few squid pieces the size of a fingernail.

Why does it do that!
“Gulp gulp… Heh…”

After taking a big mouthful of the sauce, you won’t feel greasy at all. Instead, the fresh and sweet taste makes the layers in your mouth richer.

I wanted to pick up another piece of rice noodle roll to carefully distinguish the ingredients, but the chopsticks I stretched out hit nothing.

Zhang Qing stared at her empty lunch box with wide eyes.

I actually ate up a whole rice noodle roll by myself?
And he ate up all the rice rolls and sauce without leaving any?

Gang Ge's sturdy figure came over and said with a teasing look on his face, "Yo yo yo? Our student Zhang actually ate it all? Do you want to buy another one?"

Zhang Qing quickly adjusted her expression: "That's not necessary. I was just very hungry after exercising. I'm not that hungry anymore."

Gang Ge joked: "You are indeed hungry. You even drank all the sauce."

Zhang Qing said stubbornly, "I just don't want to waste it. Wasting is shameful!"

Gang Ge said: "Really don't want another one?"

Zhang Qing's face was full of aloofness: "No."

Even if I want to eat it, I can't show it! Be classy! I can just buy it later!
Gang Ge sighed and said, "Oh, that's such a pity. This boss's rice noodle rolls are selling out so fast. If we wait any longer, we might not even have any soup to drink."

Ok?
Zhang Qing's heart began to struggle. As the taste in her mouth gradually faded, her taste buds began to miss the sweet feeling.

Or... another one?
Just as she was about to speak, she saw Gang Ge's teasing expression and immediately changed her tone: "No, although the taste is barely acceptable, but I'm full."

At worst, I can come back to buy it tomorrow. Anyway, I can’t lose in momentum!
Gang shook his head and said, "What a shame! I heard the owner will only be selling this place for a few days. He might go somewhere else in a couple of days. If I want to eat such delicious rice noodle rolls again, I don't know when I'll be able to do so."

After saying that, he shook his head and went to chat with other students.

When Zhang Qing heard this, she felt a little unsteady on her feet.

I glanced at Brother Gang and found that he was surrounded by the boys and was not paying attention to me, so I couldn't help but move towards the queue.

But I still struggled in my heart.

Wouldn’t it be too embarrassing to queue up like this?
Just as I was hesitating, I saw a few people lining up again.

Zhang Qing was now anxious. She had seen the box of rice noodle rolls the boss had been holding. The small space could only hold 200 at most, and the line just now had sold at least . She didn't care about the embarrassment anymore and trotted to the end of the line.

Then he put on the hood of the down jacket and sealed all the buckles, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed. He was fully armed.

Even so, a voice that made her uncomfortable came from behind her.

"Hey? Not full?"

Zhang Qing rolled her eyes and said angrily, "I'm full. I didn't go there for the rice noodle rolls. I just wanted to knock on the wooden fish again, okay?!"

……

Zhang Yang was getting closer and closer to Wang Fan's stall, and the aroma of rice was getting stronger and stronger.

He was surprised to find that even though he smelled such a strong odor, he didn't feel nauseous at all!

And my mood actually got better and better as I got closer to the stall.

Could this be what people call the earthly atmosphere that soothes the hearts of ordinary people?

Mother Zhang held Zhang Yang's hand with a look of nervousness and anticipation.

Her hands couldn't stop shaking, and her heart was getting closer and closer to her throat as the two of them walked.

This anorexia has tormented the whole family.

I went to all the major hospitals and saw many psychologists. The money spent was not a big deal, but it was really upsetting that the illness was not cured.

This is the first time my son has taken the initiative to walk towards the snack stand since he was diagnosed with anorexia!
"Amitabha, Wuliang Tianzun, Mommy Mommy, please coax me, Taishang Laojun, please bless me, please don't let my son vomit, even if it's just to help him eat a bite!"

Mother Zhang prayed to all the gods she knew, hoping that her child could eat a bite.

She understood the principle that a thousand-mile dike can be destroyed by an ant hole. As long as her son could take the initiative to eat once, the doctor said that there would be a cure.

The two of them lined up obediently.

As the team moved, Mother Zhang gripped her son's hand tighter and tighter.

Not only were veins bulging, but even in such a cold weather, my palms were covered in sweat.

Zhang Yang wanted to comfort his mother, but he was even more nervous. He knew what the doctor had said would be a bad outcome, and he was still young and didn't want to die like this.

He felt that every step he took required all his strength, and his heart was beating like a war drum.

"Tuk-tuk-tuk-tuk..."

A crisp sound suddenly came into my ears, not loud but very clear.

In a trance, Zhang Yang seemed to see a soft goose feather floating down into the lake of his heart.

The tension gradually disappeared.

The aroma of rice became stronger, and his heart was suddenly filled with anticipation.

This should be a very delicious food.

I want to eat it!

Mother Zhang seemed to be able to feel the changes in her son. Looking at her son's appearance, she couldn't help but tears welled up in her eyes.

But she didn't dare make a sound, for fear that her son would have another accident.

She just hoped that the team in front of her could move faster so that her son could have his first meal sooner.

The distance of dozens of meters seemed to be stretched to the horizon in an instant, and no matter how hard I walked, I could never finish it.
