Double Bracelets

The journey home was winding and far away, going down the mountain, crossing the river, and then winding up the mountain, Wang Chanyue didn't feel her legs and feet were tired, but her heart was tired.My sister asked her to go home to rest no matter what, saying that after all, she stayed up all night to take care of the two mothers who both had postpartum discomfort. For her own health and for the safety of the mothers, the shift system must be strictly implemented.

She also knows this, and she knows better that her sister wants her to relax, and don't always use busyness to paralyze herself.Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile wryly, lamenting that there are too many smart people around him, but he seems to be infatuated like a fool.There is little sunshine in Chongqing in winter. Last night I chatted with the head nurse on duty at the hospital. With her great language talent, she felt that she would be able to speak a few words of Chongqing dialect when the two sisters-in-law were discharged from the hospital.The head nurse told her how the hospital is doing now, how is the weather in Chongqing, how is the weather in Southwest China, she likes spicy food, and the beef offal on the other side of the river is delicious, the two of them are actually hungry Now, Wang Chanyue went to bring the biscuits for the parturients but neither of them liked to eat, and ate them with a little hot water for supper with the head nurse.

The head nurse seriously asked her about going to medical school. After hearing that you are a girl who is more upright and manly than a boy, you are so unwilling to stay in Peiping to finish your studies.Wang Chanyue said that there is actually nothing important to learn in the last year. There is only one thesis left, and I feel that if I don’t do it, I don’t lack anything.The head nurse wooed her to work in the hospital again, saying that there was a shortage of people, and that college students like her would definitely be of great use if they came. } There is no shortfall, and there is not much money to be paid." Wang Chanyue said that she did not do it for money, but only studied medicine to save people. "Right, it's good to think like you." The head nurse was old enough to like her very much, and said that if she had the opportunity, she would talk to the director and dean above, so that she would come as soon as she wanted.

Now that she thinks about it, how could she have so many thoughts of not living in the enemy-occupied area, she just followed Fu Yiheng.It's not her fault that it's not her fault, it's just a trick of time.It's a new year and she's 24 years old.Spring is coming. It is said that there are many flowering trees planted all over the mountain, including peach blossoms, cherry blossoms, begonias, and sweet-scented osmanthus.She walked slowly up the road, neither looking up nor looking at anyone.No matter who she is with, whether it is high-ranking officials or ordinary people, no one should know her, and she should not know anyone.His steps were frivolous, probably because he was tired.It took four to ten minutes to get home.After saying hello to Mama Zhao, she returned to her room without disturbing Mrs. Xu who was about to take a nap.

The windows on the west side where the three of them live are full of trees, which are enough to block the overheated sun in the afternoon—not to mention that it is not facing the west, so there is not much sunshine.I heard that it is a crabapple tree, but it has not bloomed for many years.She sat at the desk, staring blankly at the few books in front of her.In addition to medical books, it is Jiang Xijie's basic English original works, which she brought to Chongqing all the way because of her 10-minute love.Wang Chanyue read that "The Painted Veil" over and over again, and every time she read a chapter, her heart could be frozen hard again, layer after layer, layer after layer, and the cold air was overflowing, like an ice cellar.

Finally, relying on this layer of cold air, she managed to manage the Chinese New Year from the bitterness, took care of the two sisters-in-law in confinement, and her brother's return. With the change of the war situation, Jiang Xijie really brought the two family's wealth to set up a store in Jiangzhong and hired people to open it. She bought a restaurant, and the flowers were about to bloom from winter to spring. She didn't know anything about all of this. She just tried her best to freeze her heart, but she didn't expect it to be too much.The stiff heart lost its perception, and it was very mechanical to do what she thought she should do.Wang Jiyue also talked to her about the idea of ​​going to work in the hospital, and asked her if she would like to go, she said yes, just wait for the hospital to tell her.Wang Jiyue dragged Jiang Xijie together to comfort her, saying that she would like her to go out for activities to relax, but if she couldn't, don't force her, "In short, I hope you are well and happy, and don't give up even if it is difficult." Wang Chanyue replied Well, the excuse is to think of something else for a change of mood.The two had no choice but to agree.So in the season of warm spring and flowers blooming, Wang Chanyue counted which trees on the mountain and below the mountain were blooming and which were not, and began the day when she officially became a doctor.

The hospital's conditions were poor and there was not enough manpower. Wang Chanyue was ready to block the bullet hole when she came up, and went directly to the surgery department.In fact, Wang Chanyue thinks that there should be a lack of ordinary Chinese medicine. After all, many people who immigrated from other places are not those who have enough knowledge and financial resources to see Western medicine when they are sick.To save the poor, ordinary barefoot doctors should be more reliable and practical.But she is not capable enough, so it is better to specialize in each.Moreover, she vaguely felt that the sanitation environment in the main urban area was poor, and the population had increased, and if the population was not adequately maintained, an epidemic would break out.When she talked about this with the head nurse, the head nurse agreed with it deeply, but she also said that everything was due to insufficient funds, which cannot be pre-established now, and that it can only be dealt with in times of war when there is a real chaos.He also said to her meaningfully that when the time comes to war, people like you will not care about things like epidemic prevention. As a surgeon, you must treat those seriously injured.

The head nurse said that those who have worked in this industry for a long time like us have also cultivated a hard heart.Wang Chanyue asked why she had a heart of stone, and the head nurse replied, because she had seen so much misery and suffering, she was no stranger to it.

Is that right?also good.

The house became more and more lively, Jiang's father and son and elder brother all came back, and it seemed that every room could be filled with musical instruments and harmonious couples. When she returned upstairs alone, everything was quiet and the door was closed. All around deserted.A few months passed in a trance, and I thought I might never see you again.You may have arrived in Shaanxi, or you may have gone elsewhere. You are chasing your ideals and beliefs, even if you are not accepted by your family, you will not hesitate.

In the past six months, Wang Chanyue had already thought it through, there were countless causal anomalies, which one was not the evidence that Fu Yiheng had turned red a long time ago?It's just that she doesn't doubt it.In the dead of night, people can't sleep, rational paralysis is all sensibility, she feels that Fu Yiheng's first contact with her is to get what she wants.But what happened later?Did Fu Yiheng really get it?Or did she get nothing but herself? Fu Yiheng stole her heart, no matter what kind of motivation it was, the result was like this, an established fact.

She got my heart and disappeared into the crowd.Maybe you have gone to northern Shaanxi, maybe you are still in Shanxi, maybe you are doing what you want somewhere in the world that I don't know.I want to hang a sign on myself that no one is allowed to enter, and the range of idlers is the whole world.Because I will never see you again, the most precious thing is broken, and the rest of my life is just a waste.

She closed the curtains, changed clothes and went to sleep.Turn a deaf ear to the fireworks of the famous bird's language.

On a spring night at the end of April, it was so warm that people just wanted Jiang Xijie to bring back a jar of daughter red from the store, and was going to sit in the backyard with Wang Jiyue at night to drink and watch the moon.Recently, the government intends to find someone to be responsible for the procurement and transportation of external strategic resources, and it needs to set up a special department under the Executive Yuan.Many people rushed to fill the vacancies, but the higher-ups also wanted to find someone with experience, so someone recommended Jiang Xijie.Then someone came to lobby, Jiang Xijie was noncommittal, saying that she would consider it.In fact, she felt that of course she did it herself, and it could be considered as a contribution to the country and the salvation of the nation, but now that she is gone, what will the family do?Anyway, I have to wait a while.And the Japanese planes that flew over from time to time since February were always worrying. Even if others didn't know it, the two of them knew the fear of fleeing for their lives under the bombing.At the same time, a writer in Shanghai {18} said that it was people who were pulled into a "thin net of meat", as if they were spread out on the ground to catch falling bombs—it was the kind of creepy fear that could not escape completely. The fear of living would be worse than death.

She is greedy for life and afraid of death, she has to take care of Wang Jiyue.

The two sat down, and Wang Jiyue told her that she had joined the Wartime Childcare Association {19} and was going to work soon.Jiang Xijie's expression was complicated, and he poured her a glass of wine with mixed joys and sorrows. She would not stop her from pursuing her ideals. Whether it was peacetime or wartime, if Wang Jiyue was willing, she would unconditionally support her.Wang Jiyue naturally understood her worry, "Now it's mainly about negotiating with the government to deal with some turnover matters. I will also go to the Chongqing branch, and of course I can't go to other places." She said while shaking Jiang Xijie's hand, "I'm not going anywhere." Jiang Xijie smiled helplessly, "I'm just afraid that there will be bombing in the future." "The bombing is to hide in the air-raid shelter. Is there any other place that is safe?" Wang Jiyue wanted to make her happy on purpose, but It doesn't seem to work very well, did you say something wrong? "Anyway, if you're worried about me, why don't we go to the air-raid shelter to step on the spot tomorrow. Plan a route so we can run when the time comes."

Jiang Xijie thought to herself, who did you learn to be so glib in the past few years?Learned from me?No, it must be because I have a good mouth and catch up with me to use it all. "Oh... If this is the case, I might as well go to the Executive Yuan. We can still work together." "You, it's better to go to the finance side, so that our money can be sent out easily. ""What are you worrying about, your chairman is your wife!" "The wife is the wife, and the finances are finances. They can really be ordered, and the military budget can't be robbed?" "Then we can be regarded as competitors. ah."

The conversation went in the wrong direction more and more. On the tip of the moon, the two frolicking were exhausted, and they drank quietly. "You mean Chanyue?" Wang Jiyue was a little lazy after drinking, and Jiang Xijie, too, shook her head helplessly because of her slow movements, "I don't know. She can come by herself. I feel that she... seems to have a seat in her heart." Like an iceberg." Wang Jiyue nodded, "Yeah, it's like the whole person is hiding in a house made of ice. It's like something in the North Pole... Eskimos. Living in a house made of ice and snow, it's blowing outside. North Wind. Maybe it would be good to say it."

Jiang Xijie patted Wang Jiyue's hand, "If you don't want to say it, then don't say it. One day she will; even if she never wants to, she chooses not to tell anyone, and that is her secret." "I always feel that the cute things in the world There are so many, she shouldn't be stuck there forever." "No. Chanyue is so strong." "Yes, she must be strong. She fled to Taiyuan with that person, and she ran to Chongqing like this. She still refused to rest. Going to work. A few days ago, my uncle sent a telegram saying that my father was staying in Guangzhou, and they were already preparing to go to Penang. I asked Chanyue if she would like to, and I showed her the telegram. She didn’t want it, just like staying in Chongqing. I think she still wants to wait and see, no matter what she is waiting for. You said in case," Jiang Xijie put her finger on her lips, "it's not in case. Don't think about it. Wait until it comes. You are her sister, you want What I do is to take care of her and love her no matter what happens." Wang Jiyue sighed, Jiang Xijie put her arms around her and said, "She is so strong, there is a strong fire in her heart, and she will keep burning hard. Anyway, no matter what It’s too early to say, we’re all the same, let’s take one step at a time.”

Wang Chanyue stood in the dark doorway behind, heard what the two sisters said, and looked at the unclear backs of the two.After a long silence, she suddenly said, "Sister."

The author has something to say:

{17} Southwestern dialect, meaning "now".

{18} Zhang Ailing wrote in "Little Reunion" that Jiuli had such a description when she was bombed in Hong Kong

{19}The conservation organization initiated by Song Meiling and Feng Yuxiang's wife Li Dequan in Hankou protected [-] difficult children during the Anti-Japanese War.
