Chapter 218 Baking Mooncakes
It would be better to take a speedboat and sell a boatload of frozen fish and shrimps to make money when you return.
"Don't be so quick to refuse. These sea vegetables may look insignificant, but they are very useful."
Xu Yiyi pointed at Wu Ruiming's neck, which was already much thinner.
Even though Xu Yiyi was pointing at her, she still covered her hands subconsciously.
"Are you saying these sea vegetables are good for goiter?"
Wu Fengan had some doubts, but he also felt that Xu Yiyi had no reason to lie to him.
"Of course it's true. Take it home and cook it with tofu and eat it a few times a month. It can prevent goiter."
Xu Yiyi didn't lie. Wu Ruiming's neck pain was obviously caused by iodine deficiency.
The Wu family's hometown is close to the mountains, and they mostly eat homegrown vegetables, grains and meat.
This type of thing is low in iodine.
Over time,
If the synthesis of thyroid hormone is insufficient, the thyroid gland will compensatory proliferate and swell, resulting in goiter.
This is an endemic goiter that is more common in mountainous areas.
"She's not wrong. You've been here for so long, have you ever seen anyone here with a big neck? It's because we often eat these sea vegetables and fish. You can hardly eat fresh fish, but sea vegetables are light and cheap. Bringing a few dozen kilograms can last for half a year. If you eat them every few days, they won't grow."
Mr. Wu came to eat on time, and as soon as he came in, he heard what Xu Yiyi said.
Then he explained.
Since Mr. Wu had spoken, Wu Fengan believed it instantly.
The doubt in my heart also dissipated.
"If you want to buy it, I can provide you with a channel. You know Wanghai Island? Every household on the island is drying kelp and seaweed."
Wu Fengan got a little excited when he heard this.
"The people on this island are a bit xenophobic. I passed by there before and tried to get ashore, but I had to go around in circles, asking this and that, before I finally got ashore."
Wu Fengan almost said directly that he was almost kicked out.
Of course, there is a reason for this.
One of the people following the merchant ship was dishonest and stole the fish that others had placed in the river.
But there was still resentment.
"If you're interested, come over tomorrow morning and I'll take you to the island."
Wu Fengan was in a state of confusion. He thought that it would take him nearly half a year to travel from home, and it would take him about a year to go back and forth.
I had originally planned to bring back some valuable seafood and sell it to pay back the money.
I hope you can have a prosperous year this year.
But if this is really useful, it would be much more valuable to him than those seafood.
After all, both his son and daughter died from this disease.
Now it all depends on my nephew Wu Ruiming.
"Isn't he not fully recovered yet? After taking the medicine, eat some kelp and seaweed from time to time, and it will gradually go away."
Mr. Wu kept explaining, and Wu Fengan made the decision immediately.
I made an appointment with Xu Yiyi to go to the island early tomorrow morning.
As they were talking, the dishes were served one after another.
Xu Yiyi also left from the front and returned to the backyard.
"You're too busy now, you still have to hire someone."
Old Wu stroked his beard and said, "Er'er was cooking in the kitchen, and the two aunts were helping her, but they were still very busy."
"Yes, please."
Xu Yiyi thought for a moment. She was busy making money, but she didn't want to make herself and her family work themselves to death every day.
If you earn money but don't have time to spend it, it will not be worth it.
Seeing that she had a plan in mind, Mr. Wu didn't continue.
"What's going on? Can we roast the duck now?"
Old Wu took out a can of wine from his sleeve, his eyes full of anticipation.
Xu Yiyi took the bowl and brushed the marinated duck with sauce again, then skewered it and hung it in the oven.
