Chapter 537 Calcium Supplementation
He Yuan went to the kitchen to get her water. When he saw her coming over with clothes, he said to her, "Xiao Yu is growing too fast. I suspect she is calcium deficient, so I bought her some cod liver oil for rickets. We don't drink soup enough at home. She needs to drink bone broth twice every five days. I bought some medicinal herbs, including lily bulbs, goji berries, and codonopsis, to help Xiao Yu get some nourishment."

Chen Qing was somewhat annoyed: "I didn't notice."

“You look at her every day and you don’t feel any changes, but Xiaoyu is six years old and almost 1.3 meters tall, which is considered to be growing very fast.”

"Then I'll keep a closer eye on Xiaoyu from now on." Chen Qing then asked, "What about He Yuxiang? How is he?"

In the original novel, He Yuxiang's ultimate failure was largely due to his dilapidated physical condition.

He Yuan: "He Yuxiang is in good health. As long as nothing unexpected happens, his body can handle a lot of work."

Chen Qing's eyes dimmed for a moment.

He Yuan added, "It's normal for him to be tall. I grew fast when I was young, and I was already 1.8 meters tall when I was 14 or 15."

"That's good."

Chen Qing felt relieved.

While she was taking a shower, He Yuan went to the study to remind He Yuxiang again: "Xiao Yu is calcium deficient, so buy more food for her. No snacks, she needs meat and vegetables every day. When you go to school, the meals you take to school must also include meat. I will give you meat coupons. If anyone complains that it is too extravagant, we will take care of it. Just let Xiao Yu eat more."

He Yuxiang nodded seriously: "I understand."

Xiaoyu opened the study window, peeked out her little head, and asked, "Uncle, is my calcium deficiency serious?"

He Yuan shook his head: "It's not serious. Many children are prone to calcium deficiency. I'm telling you to eat more so that you can grow better. Actually, calcium deficiency isn't a big problem in itself."

Many people suffer from rickets, which is why cod liver oil has become so popular, but in reality, not many people actually buy it.

Xiaoyu seemed to understand but not quite: "That's good."

She went back inside and saw Aunt Ma tidying up her clothes. She asked, "Auntie, do you know about calcium deficiency?"

“I know, are you calcium deficient?” Ma Aiying glanced at her knees.

Xiao Yu pursed her lips and nodded nervously: "Is it serious?"

Ma Aiying laughed and said, "It's not serious. It's a minor ailment that few people in the countryside would bother with."

"what?"

"You need to supplement your nutrition if you are calcium deficient. People in rural areas can't eat that much. Have your family bought you things to supplement your nutrition?"

"Ok!"

Xiaoyu nodded heavily.

Her uncle bought a lot of things back.

Ma Aiying smiled and said, "Look, all of this costs money. Your family is really good to you."

She finally understood that although Xiao Yu and He Yuxiang were not Chen Qing and He Yuan's biological children, there was no difference between them.

They are even better than most biological children.

Xiao Yu's innocent eyes gradually brightened, and she ran out contentedly to her uncle, saying, "Uncle, could you bend down for a moment?"

He Yuan bent down as instructed.

Xiaoyu tiptoed and whispered in her uncle's ear, "Uncle, I know you love us very much, and we love you very much too."

He Yuan's pupils trembled slightly, his heart softened, and he smiled as he ruffled her hair: "I understand."

Xiao Yu's smile blossomed into a wide grin, her soft cheeks puffed out, and her smile was pure joy.

She happily went back to her room to sleep.

He Yuan happily shared this with Chen Qing before going to sleep.

Chen Qingcai was unwilling to be outdone: "Xiaoyu often tells me, 'Auntie, I love you so much.'"

He Yuan's eyes were filled with resentment.

Chen Qing laughed out loud.

I couldn't contain my pride!

There was also a hint of pride.

Children's ability to imitate is really strong. She likes to tell Xiaoyu, "I love you so much," and Xiaoyu will then say "I love you" to the person who loves her.

But He Yuxiang doesn't seem to have learned anything...

This guy.

Chen Qingzhen was convinced.

We've raised her for so long. She won't even call us "Auntie."

It looks like a gourd with a saw-off mouth.

It perfectly embodies the repressed, arrogant, and sassy style of the main villain.

Chen Qing was so angry that he punched He Yuan.

He Yuan asked, puzzled, "What's wrong?"

Chen Qing said confidently, "While you're about to go to work, I'll find a chance to beat you up."

Unable to refute, He Yuan had no choice but to turn off the light and go to sleep.

The next morning, He Yuan went to work early. Xiao Yu was reluctant to leave him. He Yuxiang said to her, "You're such a grown-up, you should be able to take care of yourself, right? Surely no one forgets to eat, right?"

"Don't learn to be sarcastic and sarcastic from your aunt," He Yuan reminded her.

He Yuxiang turned his face away, his eyelashes casting shadows on the bridge of his nose, and his lips pursed into a stubborn little parenthesis.

He wants to learn!

He couldn't understand what was going on with his uncle.

She doesn't like to eat!

Something is wrong!
My uncle is really crazy!
He's a chef with the skills of a master chef, but he's the one in the family who has the least expectation for food.

Chen Qing also complained, "What's wrong with learning to be sarcastic and sarcastic from me? It's better than learning to not like to eat from you."

Xiao Yu, hands on her hips, chided indignantly, "Exactly!"

He Yuan was thoroughly defeated after being criticized by his three family members: "I will try my best to remember."

"As much as possible?"

Chen Qing smiled in death.

He Yuan immediately changed his mind: "Definitely!"

Chen Qing snorted: "That would be best. You go to work, I'm going to work too."

"Okay, I'm off now." He Yuan got into his car and went to work.

Chen Qing and Ma Aiying also went to work.

Inside the workshop, brand-new machines stood in rows, with high-speed flat sewing machines gleaming with a cold, metallic sheen.

The air was filled with the smells of new fabric and machine oil, but even stronger was a silent tension.

Because the machine suddenly broke down.

This is a new product, and everyone is using it very carefully, so how did it break?

Chen Qing was notified to stop the production line as soon as she arrived. She came to the center of the workshop and saw that they were too afraid to move because several machines were broken. She said, "Start work, don't stop."

Instantly, a dense, rhythmic clattering sound filled the workshop.

Chen Qing's expression did not relax; instead, it became even more focused.

She knew that a break-in period was inevitable for new machines.

Sure enough, less than ten minutes later, discordant noises appeared.

One machine slowed down, and then another stopped.

A young female worker stood up in a panic: "Factory manager, this...this thread keeps breaking!"

Another person shouted, "My needle is stuck!"

"I'm always running down here!"

Looking at the half-finished product in his hand, which was crookedly sewn due to a broken thread, Master Sun was both angry and heartbroken: "This material is so precious, it can't be wasted like this."

The mechanics rushed over, sweat beading on their foreheads, and started adjusting the wrench here and there, muttering "parameters" and "tension."

But the effect was minimal.

The female workers surrounded him, their faces filled with anxiety and distrust.

Workshop foreman Lao Ma was in a panic: "What, what should we do? Why is the new machine not as obedient as the old one?"

Wei Jianping also came to the workshop with his hands behind his back, his brows slightly furrowed, and said lightly, "I should have applied for our country's products. I'm used to it, but I insist on being different. This shutdown will cause a lot of delays."
