Omnipotent Mrs. Finn novel Chapter 165

Ruby took a look at today's dishes, which were very rich, but not really suitable for the two old people, who were old and had more or less old age diseases, especially Zack, who did not take care of himself when he was young, so he had many minor problems.

The food was really nutritional, but it was heavy on oil and salt and very unfriendly to older people.

"Grandpa and Grandma, you'd better not eat these food." Ruby said as the crowd was about to eat, especially Zack, who just particularly liked spicy and greasy things, went towards the plate of spicy chicken.

As soon as Ruby spoke, Zack had already retracted his chopsticks and looked at Ruby in confusion.

"Grandpa, when you were young, you ate irregularly all the time, so your spleen and stomach were out of order, and you haven't been able to properly regulate them over the years. Eating spicy will irritate your stomach and cause diarrhoea. Also the other dishes are heavy on oil and salt, none of them are very suitable for you to eat." Ruby spoke seriously.

Hearing that, Serena’s face changed and she desperately gave her a wink, telling her to stop.

Zack loved spicy food, he has to take two bites every time before he felt at ease, even if he had had medicine after that.

No one in the family dared to say anything except Vivian, but she had now long since and turned a blind eye to him.

Ruby was the first person, who dared to say this question.

Serena was really afraid that Zack would get angry and scold Ruby, so she spoke up, "Grandpa, I think sister-in-law is right, so you eat something else, okay?"

After saying that, she even winked desperately at Levi.

But Levi didn't react at all as if he didn't see it, which made Serena want to scratch his face.

"Ruby, I ...... ", Zack opened his mouth and sighed, before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Ruby.

"Grandpa, let me make two dishes for you and Grandma, wait for me." Ruby said and got up straight away and went into the kitchen.

The kitchen was well stocked with all the ingredients, even some of the herbs to be used in making medicinal meals, much to Ruby's delight.

She selected some ingredients that would be beneficial to the two elderly people and some herbs, which she put in cold water to soak before starting to process the ingredients.

Zack liked spicy food but could not eat spicy food because of his health.

Ruby put pepper in a gauze bag and added several herbs, which would be spicy to eat if put into the dishes, but were good for the body, especially for regulating the spleen and stomach.

Ruby moved quickly, and in just twenty minutes, the two dishes were finished.

She carried the dishes out to the living room and placed it in front of Zack and Vivian, "Grandpa, try it."

Zack picked up his chopsticks in disbelief and took a slice of fish.

The fish was delicious, with a hint of fresh spicy taste, and that taste made Zack's eyes light up when he took a bite.

He couldn't wait to take another slice into his mouth, then spoke in a slurred voice, "Mmm, mmm, yum, yum."

As he ate, he helped Vivian sitting next to him, "Eat, eat."

Vivian was mused seeing his wretched appearance, giving Ruby an apologetic glance before she took the fish from the bowl into her mouth.

Vivian didn’t really like spicy food, she didn't eat much when she was younger and even less as she got older.
