Chapter 77077 Acute pancreatitis? That snowy night, palpitations...
Seeing Shu Jinyue's expression, Anna's heart sank to the bottom, "Is my mom...really not well?"
"I'm not sure yet, but based on the symptoms you described, I suspect it's acute pancreatitis. Let's act quickly."
Acute pancreatitis, needless to say, is feared by everyone who has worked in clinical emergency and general surgery departments, especially during the Chinese New Year holidays, when people eat a lot of high-protein meat and fish, drink alcohol, and overeat. If an attack does not occur, it is a surgical acute abdomen.
Fortunately, Anna also came here by bike. Xu Duan was riding Jin Yue in front, and she was chasing behind, talking as they walked.
It would have been fine if Jin Yue hadn't explained to her. As soon as he explained, she became anxious and sobbed, as if something really happened to An's mother. Jin Yue regretted that he couldn't hold back his facial expression just now. He deserved to be beaten. If An's mother had been sent to the hospital in time, she might not have been in trouble. But her eyes were blurred with tears and she couldn't see the road, which was more dangerous.
Alas, Jin Yue sighed in her heart. She felt sympathy for and liked Anna. Although this girl had suffered misfortune, she was still sunny and cheerful, and acted decisively. She deserved a better man, not a trash like Liu Dong.
She didn’t notice in the original book or in her previous life what the girl’s final outcome was. I hope she will be fine in this life.
Fortunately, before they reached the An family, they met a neighbor of the An family at the entrance of the alley. The neighbor said that Anna's sister-in-law had already sent An's mother to the hospital and took her away on a flatbed truck. The hospital was the municipal hospital, and they were close to the municipal hospital, so the three of them went straight to the municipal hospital.
She was still in the internal medicine ward, which was pretty much what Jin Yue had expected. Director Jin and the others also suspected that Mother An had acute pancreatitis, so they transferred her to the surgery department. Xu Duan's sister-in-law Zhang Zhen was in the surgery department, so it was convenient for her to be transferred there.
Anna asked her mother for her opinion. Her mother was sweating profusely, her hair was wet with sweat and sticky on her skin. Jin Yue carefully discovered that even her cotton coat was soaked.
She walked over and asked An's mother softly, "Auntie, are you in pain now?"
She originally thought that if it really didn't work, she could give her two acupuncture needles to relieve the pain. Temporary acupuncture should not affect the subsequent treatment.
But An's mother shook her head and said, "It doesn't hurt that much anymore. It just hurts for a while."
Why is there so much sweat?
Jin Yue felt puzzled but said nothing. He just placed his finger on Anmu's radial artery and felt it carefully. It was indeed not a pulse of severe pain, but still the same weak and stringy pulse as last time.
Retracting his fingers, Jin Yue looked at what everyone in the ward was wearing. It was still a cold spring day, so everyone was wearing thick clothes. It was fine if they moved around, but if they didn't move, they would still stamp their feet in the cold. However, Mother An was still sweating, so it was obviously not possible for her to be hot.
She asked the nurse who had just measured An's mother's vital signs, "Does the patient have a high temperature?"
"Not high, 37.1 degrees, heart rate is pretty fast, 135 beats per minute, breathing is okay."
Shu Jinyue felt more and more puzzled - since she was not in severe pain, nor was she hot, and her body temperature was not high, then where did all the sweat come from?
Is it nervousness? But looking at her expression and tone of voice today, she didn't seem very nervous. Anna was even more nervous than she was. She wanted to ask again, but the nurse said that someone else had pushed An's mother away for an ultrasound examination.
The diagnosis of acute pancreatitis, in addition to abdominal pain, vomiting, and overeating of greasy and high-protein foods, is also very dependent on blood biochemistry and ultrasound examinations, otherwise it is difficult to distinguish it from other diseases.
"Sit for a while. If surgery is needed, I'll go talk to my sister-in-law." Xu Duan asked her to sit on the bench while he stood.
"Is she going to work today too?"
"Well, they said there was an emergency operation."
Zhang Zhen is truly worthy of being the top female surgeon in the municipal hospital. When encountering difficult surgeries, the first person everyone thinks of is her, and she never refuses. In addition to working her own shifts, she is also always available when called upon to work overtime without any complaints.
“There’s a reason why the gay men in our family can cook.”
Jin Yue smiled. She really didn't expect that the men in the Xu family could cook. This was a big plus in her heart. Plus, he was emotionally stable and good-looking. Even if such a man had no job and no money, she was willing to support him.
Really, just help her cook and provide her with emotional value.
"What are you thinking about?"
"Nothing, I just think I'll be going to college soon, so I'm happy."
Xu Duan also laughed, "Have you decided whether you want to live on campus or go to school as a day student?"
"Of course I am a day student. Director Ma talked to me a few days ago and hoped that I could continue to see patients at the epidemic prevention station when I don't have classes. Many patients also expressed that they hope I can stay and not resign."
Within two years, many employees in the system will apply for unpaid leave. Jin Yue actually wants to do this now, but the old patients and Director Ma’s colleagues have strong opinions, so she thought for a long time and finally agreed.
Traditional Chinese Medicine is a practical science. If she stays in school all day to study, many things cannot be tested and will be slowly forgotten. She doesn't want to start all over again after graduation, so she decides to stick to working and studying part-time.
Just do it to earn a salary.
Soon, the blood test results came out. However, surprisingly, the amylase level in the blood was not high, but the white blood cell level was higher. The An family mother and daughter also came back after the ultrasound examination and said that there was no obvious abnormality in the pancreas, but they suspected that acute gastroenteritis was more likely.
Director Jin pushed his glasses up and said, "It turns out this is really gastroenteritis."
I don’t know if it was because of disappointment or something, but he was suddenly called to the hospital during the New Year’s Day. When he saw that the patient was pancreatitis, he felt a little relieved, thinking that as long as the patient was transferred to the surgery department, it would have nothing to do with him and he could go home and rest. But who knew that he couldn’t be transferred again... Naturally, he would be a little emotional.
The other medical staff didn't have any ideas. After all, they were scheduled to be on duty during the New Year, and one more or one less patient would not have much impact on them. Everyone was busy writing medical orders, preparing injections and water, and getting busy in an orderly manner.
Anna also breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you, Dr. Shu. I'm really sorry to bother you to come here during the New Year."
"It's nothing. It's a good thing that it's just a false alarm." Jin Yue stood up and shook his legs. He didn't feel cold because he was wearing Xu Duan's big gloves, but his legs were cold. He was in a hurry to come out and forgot to wear long johns.
Anna felt embarrassed and thought that she should go to her mother's house to express her gratitude once her mother's condition stabilized.
As for the possibility of meeting her ex-husband's ex-girlfriend when she goes to his house, she doesn't care. There is nothing to be embarrassed about. Shu Jinyue doesn't care about her, so there is no need for her to take it to heart, right?
She wanted to send Jin Yue downstairs, but Jin Yue was in no hurry to leave. "Sister Anna, I have something to ask you. Does Auntie sweat easily?"
"Yes, she has been sweating a lot in the past two years. She went to see a doctor, who said it was a symptom of menopause. She said taking some medicine would make it better, but if she didn't take the medicine, it would continue. Sure enough, it has gradually decreased over the past year or so. She seemed to be sweating more today. I guess she is nervous. My mother has this problem when she is nervous. My father has complained about her before."
So that's how it is. This explanation makes sense considering An's mother's age. "Okay, then you go back and take care of Auntie first. No need to send her off. We can go down by ourselves."
Arriving at the hospital entrance, Jin Yue remembered that when he and Xu Duan reconciled, they ate the brown sugar cake from the shop not far away, "I want to eat brown sugar cake."
"Let's go together." He pushed the cart and walked on the outside, while protecting her on the inside, separating the flow of people and vehicles.
Jin Yue jumped up and down, "Buy two more and bring two back for my parents as well."
But when I got there I found out that the door was not open!
"Why am I so confused? Today is only the second day of the first lunar month and many shops are closed." The formal units were not open yet, and she was called here at short notice and had forgotten the time.
"If you want to eat, let's go to Qingqing's house and make it. It's a good opportunity to keep her company."
This proposal was highly approved by Shu Jinyue, "Okay!"
Yao Qingqing didn't go to the Shu family for the New Year this year, saying that she wanted to spend the New Year alone, so Jin Yue didn't force her.
The two of them came to Jinyu Hutong. Xu Duan went home to get flour and brown sugar, while Jin Yue went to stroll around the door of the house she bought. Because she didn't want to make it public, she didn't even go to put up Spring Festival couplets this year. She paid off the house price in full before the college entrance examination. Cousin Zhang went to the Public Security Bureau to cancel her ex-husband's household registration, and moved back to her hometown with her son, completely severing her relationship with the man who abandoned his wife and children.
Thanks to Dr. Kobayashi's vigorous promotion of the stomach-lifting liquid in Japan, she has gained a lot of loyal fans and sales have increased significantly. Therefore, Jin Yue's dividends this year have increased in addition to the remaining 5,000 yuan from last year. Even if she pays off the house, she will still have money in her hands.
She is now wondering what to do with this little money?
"Stop looking, it's cold outside." Xu Duan came to call her, and they both came to Qingqing's house. She was sleeping soundly. It was Doubao who heard Jin Yue's voice and went to the bed to wake her up.
She had messy hair, and the moment she saw them, she forgot to yawn, "Jin Yue, Brother Xu, what are you doing..."
"You, it's already so late and you're still sleeping. Let's go and make something delicious."
Jin Yue pushed her to wash up, only to find that the water was cold. He looked at the remaining dishes and found them to be very simple, with only some cooked food and a few peanuts... Jin Yue and Xu Duan looked at each other, feeling a little sad.
Qingqing is really disobedient. Both the Shu family and the Xu family called her, but she insisted on living alone, and said that she could eat and drink well alone. But this is the result?
Shu Jinyue really wanted to hit her on the head, "Next year I will tie her up and bring her home."
Xu Duan didn't say anything, but silently went to boil water and knead the dough. When the dough was rising, he cut the brown sugar into fine powder and added two handfuls of sesame seeds.
Jin Yue and Qing Qing followed behind and watched, "Don't we need to fry the sesame seeds first?"
"When making pancakes, the temperature is too high, and the sesame seeds will cook on their own. If you fry them now, they will burn easily later."
Well, they are both kitchen wastes who can only eat but not cook. They just do whatever he says. They will check whether it makes sense or not later.
After the pancakes were made, he put a little lard in the pan and smeared the pan around it to make it shiny. Then he put the pancakes in, and saw him putting them in one by one, turning them over, and taking them out of the pan one by one... The white dough became golden and fragrant round pancakes as he kept turning them over.
Xu Duan scooped it out and gave one to each of them, "Be careful of the heat."
The girls didn't care, they just kept talking. Jin Yue was indeed burned at the beginning, but when it wasn't too hot anymore, he handed over the pancake he had bitten, "Here, Chef Xu, you've worked hard."
So, Xu Duan took a big bite under Yao Qingqing's shocked gaze.
Yao Qingqing turned to Jin Yue and asked, "Second Brother Xu really eats?"
"We are boyfriend and girlfriend, what's wrong? We can't eat it?"
Yao Qingqing acted as if she was disgusted, "Okay, you guys are just trying to piss me off. Next year, oh no, this year, I'm going to date someone better than Second Brother Xu, humph!"
"Then you are doomed to be disappointed. There is no man better than him in the world."
Yao Qingqing held her chest, this time she was really disgusted, "You two are so sick of each other, I can't do it, I can't stand it, I want to go out and get some fresh air."
The more proud Shu Jin is, the more she believes her partner must be the best! She wants to be the best Chinese medicine practitioner in the world and sleep with the most handsome man!
She is making steady progress towards both goals.
"Tell me the truth, did you arrange my job? If you don't tell me the truth, I will go out and ask Qingqing directly."
Xu Duan methodically flipped the pancakes in the pan, "It wasn't arranged by me. You fought for it yourself."
Seeing that the girl was about to get angry, he continued, "If you don't believe me, think carefully. Saving Qingqing was out of kindness, and she happened to have a job because of Yao Feiyang's sacrifice. You also happened to have learned medical skills and had enough ability to take this job. All these steps were a collection of accidental events, and you happened to work hard and got it."
"If I must say what I did in the meantime, it was that I evaluated your abilities and felt that it would be fine if you wanted to pursue a professional and technical career." Originally, when Xu Siqi came to him for help, he wanted to arrange for her to enter the school. He played basketball that day just to talk to Jiang Weijun about this matter, and he could help.
Unexpectedly, he heard that she was treating Yang Zhengkang's mother. He ignored everything else and reminded her to stay away from the Yang family.
"You mean, I almost became a teacher?"
Xu Duan nodded. He did think so. He would arrange for her to work in the government kindergarten. She just needed a light workload and not too complicated people to deal with. When she had learned the skills gradually, she could go to primary and secondary schools.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? You don't know how much I was annoyed with you during that time. I was busy looking for a job and Xu Siqi couldn't help me. You showed up and disappeared the next moment. I might as well have gone to Yang Zhengkang for help."
Xu Duan handed over a pancake and said, "It's my fault. I was also hesitant at that time."
"You forgot about me. I'm a little... well, disappointed."
Jin Yue was about to bite the pancake, but stopped, "What do you mean by forgetting you? What are you talking about?"
Xu Duan washed his hands, sat in front of her, and looked into her eyes. "You asked me three times before if we had met somewhere before. Now I tell you, yes."
It was a snowy night in the winter of 1970. An accident occurred when his company was chasing two fugitives from abroad.
In such extreme weather that rarely occurs in recent years, heavy snow blocked the mountains and the mountain roads were all covered with white snow. In their three-person team, one comrade fell off the cliff and another was severely frostbitten. He was the last person still alive and able to fight. Under normal circumstances, it would have been no problem for him to fight two enemies alone, but the snow was too heavy that day and he suffered temporary blindness. The enemy was also too cunning and he fell into a trap set by a hunter on the mountain. The blood vessels in his left thigh were cut and he bled a lot.
The trap wasn't very deep and he could have gotten out easily under normal circumstances. But it was a snowy night and he was suffering from hypothermia, snow blindness, injuries, and hypothermia... He had been trapped in there for two hours and if he couldn't get out he would be frozen to death.
He stared at the sky, not knowing how long he had been staring. He heard the howling of wolves and the sound of snowflakes falling.
Gradually, he began to have hallucinations. His biological mother appeared above him, hugged him in her arms, and asked him why he didn't go home so late. In fact, he had only met this woman once when he was a teenager. At that time, she and her family were moving to Hong Kong City. It was the first time he knew what his mother looked like, but it was also the last and only time he saw her.
Then, his biological mother disappeared, replaced by his father's stern face. Sometimes he was gentle and polite, sometimes he was furious, and sometimes he was like a wounded wolf, lying quietly on the desk, licking his wounds. And he knew that every time this happened, he should leave the study immediately.
When he was a child, he didn't know to leave, and then he had several bloody whip marks on his back.
When he grew up, many people said that his father was a good man, a great man who would rather sacrifice his six children than surrender to the Japanese. He also said yes, he sacrificed a lot, and compared with so many brothers and sisters who were dead or missing, he was lucky, and he only experienced a little cold violence and a whip.
Then, the moody father disappeared, and was replaced by the cold and hostile Madam Xu. Like every day in the past, she looked coldly at the top of the mosquito net, or glanced coldly at someone, but he knew that her eyes would never fall on him, not even if they were filled with disgust, anger or rage, they would never fall on him.
Only when he grew up did he realize that this was called complete indifference.
When he was learning to walk, he fell again and again. He opened his arms to her and called "Mom", hoping that she would hug him... When he was eating a cherry, he accidentally swallowed it whole and it got stuck in his throat, turning his face purple. He vaguely wanted her to hug him, but she just looked at him quietly with a cold face.
Madam Xu never really beat him or scolded him, nor did she want to kill him like other mistresses of wealthy families. She just ignored him and pretended he didn't exist.
But when he was in the trap, he heard her voice, clear and pleasant, she was calling him "Xiao Ba".
Yes, he is the eighth son of the Xu family, and he is Xiaoba.
The crisp sound of "Xiao Ba" is like spring water flowing on the bluestone slabs in summer, sweet, warm and cheerful.
Xu Duan regained his composure from his memories, looked into Jin Yue's eyes, and said with a smile, "I thought it was an illusion, but there was indeed someone calling 'Xiao Ba'."
If Shu Jinyue still couldn't relate it to herself, she would be a real idiot. She slapped her forehead and said, "The time you mentioned is exactly when I went out to look for cows that year. I gave names to the cows in the production team. The one that was lost was number eight."
So, "Xiao Ba" is calling the cow. She stumbled all the way looking for the cow, thinking that she would be dead if she couldn't find the cow. She called out again and again, but she happened to appear in the sky above his head like a fairy from the ninth heaven.
Seventeen-year-old Shu Jinyue wanted to save him, but he was too heavy and her injured leg made her unable to use any strength. Fortunately, she brought her own sickle. "Big brother, wait for me to cut some vines and pull you up. Don't be afraid, I will definitely save you."
At that moment, he was really afraid that this Ninth Heaven Fairy would leave. She was his only hope for survival. Even if he was going to die, he didn't want to die alone quietly. He had to get the message out. "Can you help me pass a message to the armed forces department of your county?"
The girl's voice came from the grove nearby, sounding particularly clear in the silence of the snow: "No, if you have anything to say, go and say it yourself!"
Xu Duan smiled and said, "Can you talk to me?"
"say what?"
"Anything is fine. What's your name?"
"Shu Jinyue, no, my name is Su Jinyue, and my father's last name is Su." Then, she "disappeared" again. She walked deep into the woods. He called Su Jinyue several times, but she didn't answer him.
So, during the half hour that she went to cut vines, he, numb from the cold, used his fingernails to write her name in the trap. "Su" should be the Su with the grass radical, but which two characters are the name?
Is it "Jin Yue", "Jin Yue", "Jin Yue", "Jin Yue", or "Jin Yue"?
He tried many names that sounded like girls, but it was really a headache to decide which two characters to choose.
His head started to hurt, and it seemed that even the wound on his leg hurt more. He felt that even if he could survive by chance, his left leg would be crippled.
The eighth son of the Xu family has become a disabled person. His father should be very disappointed. Madam Xu may still be indifferent, and his biological mother... Oh no, she won't care.
No one in this world cares about him.
Then he heard a joyful cry: "Hey, I'm back!"
"Are you okay?" she asked.
"How do you write your name?" he asked.
They both spoke at the same time, and she smiled, like a simple, kind, but a little silly girl. "My original surname is Su, and 'Jin Yue' comes from a poem by a great man. The long road ahead is as hard as iron, but now I will start over again."
It turns out that these two words, the parents should be somewhat educated, how could they be in the countryside, "How old are you, why are you here?"
"I'm seventeen years old. I'm from the bookstore. I came here to cut in line. Today I'm here to look for my cow. Yes, my cow! My cow is lost. Captain Shi will definitely not let me go. What should I do if my cow is lost? Woo woo..."
"Don't cry yet. Listen to me. We will definitely find the cow. If we can't find it, I will compensate you with one. You just need to pay it back to the production team. It's no big deal."
"No, I'm always stupid and always mess things up. I've never really accomplished anything since I was a child. I always lost my red scarf when I was young and was always punished by the teacher. Everyone called me a little grass bag. Actually, I'm not stupid, I just don't have the opportunity to do many things..." Her eldest brother has a good writing skill, and her third sister is beautiful and outstanding. She and her second brother are the only ordinary people in the family, but ordinary people don't have the opportunity to show themselves.
"My second brother and I are different. He doesn't care about what others think, but I can't."
The young man laughed, "You will definitely succeed on your own once, at least once, because you are Su Jinyue, your name is Jinyue, the road ahead is long and hard, but you will start from the beginning, remember?"
The girl cried and laughed, blew a snot bubble, and secretly stuck out her tongue for fear of being seen.
The young man did not see it, "and what you need to do in the future is to believe in yourself, don't say you are stupid, don't say you are a fool, don't say 'always', and repeatedly emphasize your failures, you will fall into a vicious circle."
The girl smiled and praised him: "Big brother, you are really awesome. You talk just like my dad."
The young man didn't know whether to laugh or cry. How could this be considered a compliment?
In order to prevent her from falling into negative emotions, he changed the subject, "Then let's think of a way together. Pull me up. Once we're up, I'll give you whatever you want."
This is a promise to a child, just like coaxing a child to work for him. In order to ensure that she does not give up halfway, he can only ask her what she wants.
"I want to eat." She was always hungry and had not had a full meal since she started queue-jumping.
"What to eat?" Xu Duan asked, while asking her to lift up the cane so that he could see what it looked like and how to pull him up.
"Can I eat anything?"
"certainly."
Jin Yue first thought of the lost cow named Xiao Ba. "I want to drink milk. I secretly tasted a little last time. It was too fishy and hard to drink. But they said that milk is to be sold to the dairy factory and then sold to children in the city. It's so hard to drink. The children in the city are really stupid."
She forgot that she was once a city kid.
"It's not hard to drink. The milk factory will disinfect and sterilize it."
"Really?"
"You'll know when I treat you to a drink later."
The little girl became happy. Anyway, she didn't expect a stranger to really treat her to such delicious food. She was just bored and wanted to kill time by chatting.
"You throw down the sickle and I will cut it. By twisting two vines together, you can make a rope."
The little girl did as she was told, but she didn't hear his voice. "What's wrong with you? Are you asleep? You can't sleep, or you'll freeze to death."
Xu Duan felt so much pain when he moved that sweat broke out on his face. "I'm fine. Go on, tell me what you want to eat."
"Have you ever eaten chocolate? I heard from the educated youth sister from Haicheng that chocolate is smooth and silky. Is it really smooth?"
"That's about it, is there anything else?"
"Then let's have some snacks. I want some very oily and crispy peach cakes. Our family only buys a little bit during the Chinese New Year, and each person gets two pieces. My mom will leave hers for me, and my dad will secretly give me an extra piece... Oh, he's not my biological dad."
The young man probably knew her family situation and didn't ask much. He continued to ask her what else she wanted to eat.
"I want to eat Peking duck. My sister's classmate's father went to Beijing on a business trip and said that Peking duck is the best thing he has ever eaten. I don't believe it unless I can try it myself."
The young man burst out laughing.
The little girl was unhappy and stamped her feet, "Are you laughing at me for being naive or for being greedy? I haven't eaten it in the first place, and you're not allowed to say it? Why are you as annoying as my second brother!"
"No, if this is your dream, I don't think anyone's dream should be laughed at. I just think what you said is funny."
"Okay, then I forgive you. Are you cold?" She was a kind girl who cared about others. "If you can still move, move your feet. The coldest part of Yangcheng in winter is your feet. If you're not careful, your toes will freeze off."
The young man was struggling to cut the canes, and was about to connect them together. "It's okay, I'm wearing leather shoes, so I'm not cold."
"Aren't you afraid of being cold if you wear leather shoes?" She looked down curiously, and he was so scared that he quickly reminded her, "Be careful, step back."
"I've never worn leather shoes, so I don't know if they keep you warm. Anyway, the shoes I'm wearing now aren't warm at all. My toes are numb. What if I can't walk back later..."
"I'll carry you."
After he guided her to tie one end of the vine firmly to the nearest tree, he climbed up with difficulty holding the other end of the vine, and then he really carried her all the way, asking her what else she wanted to eat as they walked.
The little girl was frozen, and her old cotton-padded jacket was filled with straw. He took off his own clothes and wrapped her in it, but it still couldn't warm her.
The twenty-three-year-old man carried her on his back and walked a long way in the snow in a daze. Later, he was seen by a hunter in the mountains, who saved them.
When Shu Jinyue heard this, she suddenly realized. No wonder he always knew what she wanted to eat, from chocolate to milk, to peach cakes, to small leather shoes, and later to canned lychees. It was not that he was a worm in her stomach, but that she really told him.
He was his wish-granting machine because he knew all of her wishes.
Apart from food, she herself didn't know that her biggest wish was to succeed completely on her own, even just once, so he really helped her realize it.
He just gave her a gentle push, and she successfully stayed in the city, and has been happy about it for so many years. It was that success that helped her regain her confidence and let her know that although her IQ and appearance were ordinary, she could also achieve success through hard work.
What follows is an increasingly smooth and better life.
And the reason why he was always obsessed with the fact that her name was Su Jinyue was because of that snowy night.
That night, she felt that they were strangers who would never see each other again, so she opened her heart and told him everything, treating him as a tree hole to confide in, including the frustrations she had since childhood, her conflicts with her siblings, her conflicts with her stepfather, and the letters of severance she had sent. So in his mind, he had always known Su Jinyue, not Shu Jinyue.
Jin Yue lowered his head and wiped the corners of his eyes. "No wonder, I said I couldn't remember how I walked back to the production team that night. It turns out that you carried me to the hunter and sent me back."
"And what happened to you later?"
"After daybreak, I went back to look for my comrades."
"The one that fell off the cliff?"
Xu Duan nodded, "He died. I only found Bao Wengui. He was severely injured by the cold. He had a major amputation surgery to save his life and completely lost his ability to work."
Shu Jinyue knew, "So, Sister Bao is his lover?"
Xu Duan nodded. This was why he had always been tolerant of Sister Bao. If Sister Bao lost her job, their family would be completely without any source of income. Although Sister Bao has returned home now, she still visits them during the holidays and buys new clothes and school supplies for the children.
Shu Jinyue didn't know what to say for a moment. On that snowy night, many people lost very important things, such as their lives and the rest of their lives. She also lost a toe due to frostbite... That snow was so disgusting.
"Later, I often thought that the snow made me meet you, and maybe my life wasn't so bad after all."
Shu Jinyue hugged him from behind, "You are very good. There is no need to waste your energy on those who don't love you."
Xu Duan smiled and said, "The same applies to you."
"Then why didn't you go back to find me, your savior?" She said this angrily. She had saved him in her previous life, but why didn't he go back to find her? Later, she died, and he didn't go back either.
"I went back to look for you, but you didn't tell me which production team you were from, and the hunter had moved away. I only knew your name. I asked them to ask at your county's Youth League Office, and they told me there was no such person. Did I remember it wrong?"
"Humph, then you must have been deceived by the Shi family. They don't want me to contact anyone outside, for fear that I will find a backer." Even when the county asked her to see a doctor, the Shi family would send a daughter to follow her, under the pretext of "keeping her company", but in fact they were monitoring her.
In fact, they thought too much. She was so stupid at that time that she never thought of using external forces to get rid of them.
"Can you tell me about your time in that village?" Xu Duan stroked her head.
Jin Yue didn't want to mention it, "Let's talk about it later. First, tell me when you recognized me?"
"When you and Siqi had a blind date in People's Park, I didn't see your face, but when I heard you talk about drinking milk, I knew it must be you."
Jin Yue was confused, "You could hear it from such a distance, so you must have seen my acting skills."
Xu Duan smiled, "It's all in the past. I think I'm really lucky that I found you when I was preparing to change my career." But she was not lucky enough. If she had found her earlier, she could have suffered two years less. If she had found her earlier and found out that she was Su Liming's daughter, she wouldn't even have to go to the countryside.
He thought that his elder brother would definitely try every possible means to prevent her from cutting in line.
But there is no if, he showed up too late.
The two of them were silent, but a burst of sobbing came from outside the door, "Too, too touching, woo woo..."
"Qingqing?"
Yao Qingqing cried with snot and tears, "It turns out that you two have known each other for a long time, get married quickly, get married right here."
Shu Jinyue: "..."
Xu Duan: “…”
However, after being teased by her, Jin Yue felt much better. She said that no one would be nice to her for no reason, and Xu Duan had indeed met her a long time ago. In her previous life, because she was unwilling to accept the blind date and return to the city, she kept dragging her feet and was unwilling to meet Xu Siqi. If she had changed the meeting time and place, she would naturally not have met Xu Duan by chance.
Because her ID was lost, she was sent back to the countryside by the Youth League Office after the blind date. She also missed the time for the Xu family to visit her and missed the meeting with him.
Once you miss it, it will last a lifetime.

When they returned home in the evening, the old couple found that the children seemed to be in a good mood. They were all humming songs and walking with a breeze.
"Second brother and second sister-in-law, what good things did you encounter today?"
Xu Wenli smiled, "My dad asked us to come home more often."
Jin Yue knew more and more that it was probably because seeing that their daughter was living such a good and comfortable life, the old couple became more and more satisfied with their son-in-law, and they truly loved Wen Li.
But there is another reason, that is, they also want to have a good relationship with their son-in-law, so that maybe they can help their brother-in-law in the future. After all, the younger brother of the Xu family is too young. When he grows up, the old couple of the Xu family will retire and be sick. At this time, who else can they rely on except his sister and brother-in-law?
For various considerations, the father-in-law and mother-in-law naturally liked Shu Wenming more and more.
Shu Jinyue didn't know what to say. Her second sister-in-law was a simple person, but she didn't know whether her family would hold her back in the future.
***
A few days after the New Year, it was time to go back to school. On the eighth day of the first lunar month, Shu Wenyun was the first to go out and go to Beijing.
She didn't need anyone to see her off. She packed her bags and took some food with her. She said goodbye to her family at the train station. When she entered the station and saw Xu Siqi who had been waiting for a long time, she couldn't hide her surprise.
"Didn't you say that there was something going on at work?"
After graduating from university, Xu Siqi stayed on at the school and is now a young teacher at the Provincial University of Technology. Because of his good grades, he is highly valued by the teaching and research department and is sure to have a bright future.
"If I hadn't come, would we have ended like this?" Xu Siqi couldn't hide his haggardness. "Wenyun, I don't know why you have been saying in recent years that you should carefully consider the problems between us, but I hope you know that I will always be by your side and accompany you."
"What if I've made a serious mistake?"
"See if I can make up for it as best I can."
Shu Wenyun smiled bitterly, "You don't understand, many mistakes cannot be made up for, and if you make a mistake, it means someone else's whole life."
Many times, she also hated herself. But she is not worthy of his love.
Xu Siqi looked at her back and felt even more uncomfortable. He didn't know what was going on. Something seemed to have changed between them. They were still fine a few years ago, but ever since her sister came back and started working, she seemed to have become a different person and became more studious.
It’s not that she is not good at studying, but he feels that she can completely rely on him. He can lead her out of Liuye Hutong, give her a better life, and let her no longer have to be on duty day and night... But she would rather study with dark circles under her eyes and go to college.
He didn't quite understand: since he already had a job, what was the point of going to college? What's more, the major she was taking the exam for was totally unrelated to her job. Wouldn't all the hard work she had put into obtaining the qualification be in vain?
After all, being a lawyer or a judge does not require a nursing license or clinical experience.
Shu Jinyue didn't know what happened between them. She was also preparing for the start of her own school. The school was not far from Liuye Hutong. Xu Duan had already taken her there. Riding a bike would be faster, but in rainy and snowy weather, she could only take the bus. It took half an hour one way, and at least an hour to go back and forth.
I can’t sleep in, and I feel more and more sad. Especially in winter, it’s really painful!
"Is Dr. Shu here?"
Jin Yue was handing over his work at the company, and Anna came again, this time with her mother.
"Yes, please wait a moment." Jin Yue asked them to wait in the clinic while he continued to hand over the work to Liu Jinbu. After she started school, a lot of the work on hand would be handed over to him. Old Zhu was already very busy at work, and he had to attend meetings and so on, so he couldn't take care of much of the affairs in the station.
"Okay, okay, I got it. Go ahead. It's not like you won't be back. You'll come a few times a week anyway. If there's anything you don't understand, I'll ask you."
Jin Yue came to the next clinic, and Anna directly explained her purpose: "After being discharged from the city hospital for acute gastroenteritis, my mother has been taking the medicine prescribed by Dr. Shu, but for some reason, the effect seems to be not ideal."
Jin Yue was stunned. They hadn't come for such a long time, and Jin Yue thought they were all well.
Anna was very worried: "Could it be related to the antibiotics used during hospitalization? I saw Director Jin used a lot of injections on my mother. I don't doubt their professional skills, but I really can't understand why the effect was obvious in the first two days, but suddenly it was ineffective after gastroenteritis?"
Ana's thoughts were still very clear, and Jin Yue didn't say yes or no, "How many days did you stay in the hospital?"
"I had no symptoms after three days, and was discharged on the fourth day. In order not to affect the effect of the western medicine, I did not take the medicine you prescribed during my hospitalization. I started taking it two days after I returned home, but it suddenly had no effect."
It seems that this cannot be the effect of Western medicine. Jin Yue said nothing more and started taking the patient's pulse.
An's mother's pulse was still weak and stringy, nothing special, but according to her, her palpitations had become more serious recently. They used to only occur occasionally, but now they occur most of the day. They are more obvious when she is a little tired, and she has to lie down immediately, "otherwise, she will feel like her heart is going to jump out of her throat."
This description is very vivid.
Shu Jinyue thought back to the prescription she had been given last time, which was also a relatively conventional treatment for palpitations. It could be said that both the diagnostic ideas and treatment methods of Western and Chinese medicine were based on textbooks, and the standards were impeccable. However, after taking it for such a long time, she thought she was cured, but it was getting worse.
But the pulse has not changed, which means the cause and pathogenesis of the disease have not changed. There is only one possibility - the last prescription is not suitable for the disease.
To be precise, she prescribed the wrong prescription from the beginning!
Shu Jinyue focused his mind and did not dare to be careless. He started the consultation again from beginning to end, and the information he got was exactly the same as last time.
She stopped writing and said, "Auntie, think carefully again, have you had any illness in recent years?"
She always felt that heart palpitations were a chronic disease unless caused by sudden fright, anxiety or other psychological factors, and there should have been signs before.
“Do minor illnesses count?”
"Please tell me first."
"I used to be in good health, and my family rarely needed to buy medicine. Anna's father was also very accommodating to me, so I was in a good mood and rarely caught a cold. But after her father got into trouble, I was in a bad mood for a few days and vomited all the time. I vomited whatever I ate..."
alright! Vomit!
Shu Jinyue finally understood what was causing her palpitations. She also realized that she had been seeing doctors for too long and was prone to making dogmatic mistakes.
