The pot of grace orchid on the flower rack in front of the west wall of the south window had already blossomed. The room was filled with a fragrant fragrance.
Luo Yuzhen woke up, but she didn't open her eyes. She took a deep breath and felt a warm current flowing through her body. She felt refreshed.
The clock in the hall downstairs rang. She knew that it was exactly half-past six, which was the time she woke up every day. Her biological clock was very sensitive.
She slowly got dressed and got out of bed. As usual, she first went to open the white flower curtain in the north. She did not open the glass window because some heads in military caps were shaking on the wall outside. Since yesterday, the city defense troops of the Cowardly Party had already placed sentries on the surrounding city walls, one by one, densely packed. They threatened to fight with the army and swear to protect D City. They said that if they defended D City, the four counties nearby would be safe. She only looked at Qianyuan Mountain on the other side of the moat.
The mountain was not high, less than 300 meters above sea level. From afar, it looked like an infatuated girl sitting quietly, overlooking the Qingxi River that passed through the city from west to east. It was said that she was looking forward to the return of her lover who had traveled far on the river. After years of wind and rain, it became this stone mountain. Originally, it was very beautiful, with green trees and bamboos all over the mountain. A stream was winding and spiraling downwards, tinkling and tapping. There was a large Buddhist temple at the top of the mountain. It had green tiles and upturned eaves, looking majestic and solemn. The Japanese bombarded and destroyed the ancient temple. They also burned down many green trees and bamboos. Here and there, Cui Wei's rocks were exposed. It looked like he was fearless and resolute in the face of danger. Every time the spring breeze blew, the mountains would bloom with a beautiful azalea. For some reason, it was already late spring this year, but azalea was still so beautiful and charming. Her daughter said that flowers also had feelings. They were waiting for the great party to welcome the People's Liberation Army.
In order to make the world more beautiful, azalea only knows how to be unrestrained and unrestrained. Don't be afraid of the jealousy of the peaches and plums of Nanbin.”She loved Azalea's open and upright character and fearless spirit.
Three or four cowardly officers were walking on the city wall in front of them, gesturing as if they were discussing the war. She was a little disgusted and pulled the curtains.
She went to open the glass window on the south side and saw that the neighbor's lily bud was blooming and fragrant. The flowers were so beautiful that they looked like they were dipped in purple, giving the blue sky a gorgeous glow.
She carefully tidied up the room before washing up in front of the dressing table. She didn't like to put on makeup and advocated " natural carving."”Her fair face was always flushed like a peach blossom, her curved eyebrows were thin and thick, and her lips were like the dew of the morning dew, radiant and moist. If she was born beautiful, she would not only cover up her beautiful nature but also reduce her solemn temperament, making her seem vulgar. She tied her long black hair into a bun at the back of her head, making her look even more elegant and dignified.
She stood in front of the mirror embedded in the mahogany wardrobe door, her bright eyes looking at her long figure. The entire Indanthrene qipao, even though it was new, she still used a handkerchief to brush it in front and behind. She had a lot of silk clothes and rarely wore them, so she only paid attention to the neatness of her clothes.
She already had two children, a daughter who was eighteen and a son who was fourteen, but no one would believe that she was already thirty-seven years old. Those who didn't know the truth would think that she was not even thirty yet. Some people thought that she had lived a luxurious life for a long time, while others thought that she lived in a doctor's family and knew how to maintain her health. There was a great deal of discussion.
She was born in a scholarly family. His great-grandfather had been a prefect, but he was long dead. His grandfather had passed the imperial examination and had been a substitute magistrate for more than ten years. Before he could fill the vacancy, he had been sitting idle and had used up all the industries his ancestors had accumulated. He died of worry and anger. His father had just become a scholar when he met his mother's funeral. After three years of filial piety, he was even more down and out, so he had no choice but to become a tutor. Her maternal grandfather saw the decline of the Luo family and wanted to break off the engagement. Her maternal grandmother, who was born in a prestigious family, said that this was too heartless and disgraceful. She tried her best to dissuade him, but her maternal grandfather did not listen. Her mother and her father were childhood sweethearts and had a deep relationship. They ran to the Luo family and eloped to Jiaxing together. Her father had become a teacher in the newly established school there, and her mother had a meager income from embroidery. Thanks to her grandmother's secret support, she barely managed to get by. She was beautiful and intelligent. The more her grandfather looked at her, the more he liked her. When she was six years old, he asked his wife to come forward and discuss with her daughter and son-in-law to keep her by his side. Her aloof father could not bear to hurt his good mother-in-law's heart, so he reluctantly agreed. When she was ten years old, her maternal grandfather died of a stroke. Grandmother thought that she could not manage the rice line left by her husband, so she closed the door. Coincidentally, her grandmother's uncle had left a building in Shanghai to her niece, so her grandmother had taken her to move to Shanghai and lived on her late husband's inheritance. Grandmother was a cheerful woman. She did not believe that a woman without talent was virtuous. She let her enter school and let her enter Hangzhou Girls 'Middle School. She was afraid that she couldn't bear to spend too much of her grandmother's money, so she had been living a thrifty life.
The Hua family's ancestors had also built a Taoist platform. Hua Shiliang's grandfather abandoned Confucianism to do business and became a silk merchant. He had prospered for a period of time and could be considered a wealthy family in D City. That was not why she fell in love with Hua Shiliang. Hua Shiliang was very honest. He had never boasted about his family's financial strength in front of her, and she had never asked.
At that time, there were many rich kids pursuing her. If she was greedy for wealth, she would not have fallen in love with Hua Shiliang.
Her brother, Luo Yuzhen, did not approve of her relationship with Hua Shiliang. It wasn't that he was dissatisfied with Hua Shiliang, but rather, he admired Hua Shiliang's character. However, he always felt that Hua Shiliang lacked the courage to act and was a little cautious. He was not suitable for his sister, who was soft on the outside but tough on the inside, calm and decisive. He understood his sister. She would not fall in love easily. Once she fell in love, she would be faithful. Even if she sacrificed herself for love, she would not hesitate. This was what he was worried about. Because he knew his sister too well: her intelligence was better than Hua Shiliang's, and she had a strong potential that ordinary men did not have, which made her an outstanding woman no matter what she did. Hua Shiliang's warmth not only could not promote her ability to play, but it would also drown out this ability. He knew that once his sister stepped into the Hua Family, she would become the head of the family. This was not a good thing, but her misfortune. Because her strong sense of responsibility would make her a good wife and mother, a typical housewife of the old style, a servant of the Hua family, and a vassal of Hua Shiliang. A mediocre family would definitely destroy her wisdom and ability. Dark clouds covered the sun, and yellow soil buried the pearl. He encouraged his sister to continue her studies.
Luo Yuzhen did not accept her brother's advice because she was too serious about love and indifferent to fame and fortune. She only felt that her brother had overestimated her. She thought that her good grades were only due to her diligence in her studies, not because she was talented or an outstanding " talented woman." After all, she was an eighteen-year-old girl. It was impossible for her to fully realize her inner potential. This was also the most sensitive time for love and was filled with mysterious desires. She felt that she was too much of a burden to her grandmother. Advanced studies would definitely cost money. At that time, society was in turmoil. It was not uncommon for people to graduate from university and return from studying abroad without a job. It was better to stay in Hangzhou to teach after graduation. The school thought that she was an excellent student with moral integrity and promised to recommend her to be a teacher in a middle school. This way, she wouldn't have to spend her grandmother's money and could help her brother further his studies. Her mother was sick, and it was too difficult for her brother to further his studies with the income from her father's teaching.
Hua Shiliang was also a top student in medical school. After graduation, he was recommended to be an internist in a hospital run by the Japanese. Luo Yuzhen had taken a fancy to him not only because of his handsome appearance and outstanding talent, but also because of his steady, honest, loving, and sincere character. After two years of dating, she agreed to marry him. Hua Shiliang was lazy in life, but he was very diligent in medical research. She felt that it was good for a man to persevere in his career. She happily worked hard for this small family.
Luo Yuzhen studied fine arts. With the support of his grandmother, he decided to go to France for further studies. He encouraged his sister to go with him, thinking that her sister was most suitable for art research and would become an outstanding female writer like Bing Xin. He first convinced Hua Shiliang. Not only did this kind brother-in-law not want to restrict his wife's development, but he also expressed his willingness to give her full financial support. He also believed that she was a "talented woman of a generation" and should be allowed to display her talents. He firmly believed that she would return to his side after three years of study.
Luo Yuzhen rejected her brother's encouragement. She knew very well that once she went to France, Hua Shiliang's medical development would be affected. Moreover, under the influence of Hua Shiliang, she also fell in love with medicine.
Luo Yuzhen's prediction was right. Luo Yuzhen walked into the Hua family's wall door and indeed became the Hua family's loyal housewife. The invasion of the Japanese had awakened Hua Shiliang's patriotic heart. He was no longer willing to work in a hospital run by the Japanese. He discussed with his wife that he would return to his hometown, D City, to open a Western medicine clinic. Luo Yuzhen strongly agreed. They resolutely returned to their hometown. Hua Shiliang's medical skills were indeed outstanding among his peers, but he was really unable to run a clinic. Luo Yuzhen took the initiative to take on this responsibility. She ran around everywhere and managed the clinic with her own medicine warehouse in three months. At that time, there were no western medicine stores in D City and County. She had been studying pharmacy, nursing, and clinical medicine.
Her father-in-law had been in the business world for a long time, so he could see the talent of his second daughter-in-law. He thought that his eldest son, Shixian, had gone crazy and could not take over the family business. His second son, Shiliang, was a bookworm and could not take over the family business. His third son, Shijie, was still young and could not take over. This second daughter-in-law was virtuous, filial to her parents-in-law, respected her husband, cared for her uncles, and loved her children. She was a " gentleman among women." After discussing with her wife, she slowly transferred the authority of the Hua family to the second daughter-in-law. As a family of eight, she was in charge of food, clothing, accommodation, and transportation.
Two years later, his father-in-law died of a heart attack, and his mother-in-law, who had been ill for a long time, also died of grief. Before she died, she entrusted her young son Shijie to her daughter-in-law. She was a person who kept her word. She raised her uncle more carefully and cherished him than her own daughter and son.
She had been married to the Hua family for nineteen years. She had been conscientious and diligent in managing this family. She had worked hard and had no regrets. She had never thought of taking care of herself. Instead, she focused on taking care of her husband, children, and uncles. She only felt joy from the respect and love of her family.
She was indifferent, magnanimous, and kind to others. Coupled with the wealth of the Hua Family and the prosperity of the clinic, she did not need to worry about the finances. Her heart was open and peaceful. Perhaps these made her look younger.
She walked down the stairs with light steps. Not only was she afraid of waking up her children and uncle, but she had always been calm and elegant.
The young assistant, Ah Ju, told her that she had bought soy milk and pastries and they were stewing them in the pot. She scooped a bowl of soy milk and took two pieces of meat filling square cake. She said to Ah Ju,"Don't worry about Uncle and the others. Eat first.”Then, she carried the breakfast out of the kitchen.
Hua Shiliang loved reading and writing in the morning. He would wake up before five o'clock every day, brew a cup of Longjing tea, and enter the study room. He wouldn't come out until the clock in the guest hall struck eight, unless there was an emergency.
Luo Yuzhen gently pushed open the study door.
Hua Shiliang didn't notice it and was still focused on writing his " Internal Medicine Clinic."
Luo Yuzhen was afraid that he would be frightened, so she knocked lightly on the door. Only then did Hua Shiliang raise his head and smile at his wife.
Luo Yuzhen placed the breakfast on his desk." Eat before you write."
Hua Shiliang lovingly held her slender hand and kissed it affectionately."Thank you."
She was afraid that the sugar in the soybean milk had not melted. He took a spoon and stirred it gently in the bowl for a while. When her husband had breakfast, she went to the garden in front of the guest hall. Picking up the bonsai and admiring the flowers in the garden was what she had to do every morning. She didn't like others to do it for her. " Flowers love me, I love flowers. Flowers are like people, and people are flowers." She thought. In her eyes, flowers were the purest and most selfless. As long as a person gave a little love, the flower would give up its enchanting body, beautified your life, let you be intoxicated in poetry and painting, and wash away the mediocre distracting thoughts in your heart. You would be broad-minded, happy, and noble.
Other than wintersweet, minced tea, southern sky bamboo, banana, magnolias, and a few small green bamboos, her family's garden was planted on the ground. There were no other trees. Fortunately, there were magnolias and pomegranate flowers on the left, apricot flowers and magnolias on the right. The tall walls and low trees brought a lot of spring colors, making her small garden even more colorful.
Her love for flowers was influenced by her grandmother. Grandmother loved flowers, and she either painted or embroidered flowers every day. He only loved peonies. Unlike her grandmother, she loved orchids the most. He felt that orchids had a higher character than peonies. They were born in secluded valleys and were not afraid of being appreciated by others. They did not lose their glory because of no one and did not compete for worldly favor. Its flower color was simple and plain, rare and elegant,"refreshing fragrance can resolve filth", refined and extraordinary; The slender leaves did not wither due to the invasion of frost and snow.
Ever since she entered the Hua family's courtyard, she had lived a comfortable life and had a happy marriage. Not only did she love to admire flowers, but she also learned the art of planting flowers herself. She had read books such as the " Fragrance of Flowers " and tried to figure out how to cultivate flowers. For more than ten years, she had cultivated dozens of potted plants of various colors. This flower had not withered, but that flower had already bloomed. Throughout the year, the flowers were like brocade, and the fragrance was overflowing. A few years ago, she met the old gardener, Shen Shuigen. It made these pots of flowers more graceful and lush. The flowers bloomed earlier than others and fell later than others.
There had been a storm in the first half of the night yesterday. She was worried that these flowers would look haggard and listless. She carefully examined the pots one by one. Who knew that the peony, azalea, and other flowers seemed to have taken a shower. Under the illumination of the morning sun, they looked even more moist and sparkling. They were beautiful and bright, and their expressions were unrestrained. Peony was "a strange red, drunk and thick dew, graceful and flowing in the spring", cuckoo was "a red cloud on the sea", and Yu Meiren was "dancing in the east wind". The two pots of spring orchids were even more adorable. The slender green leaves were even more crisp and clean, shining brightly.
The red roses were already blooming, and the white roses were already showing their beauty. The pot of white roses was sent by the gardener Shen Shuigen the day before yesterday, and it was already full of buds. Who knew that after last night's storm, three flowers actually blossomed, like girls wearing white silk dresses, graceful and curling, standing in the green leaves and smiling at her. It seemed that there were thousands of emotions that could not be expressed, and their shy expressions were even more pitiful and cute. The red roses were rich and gorgeous, while the white roses were elegant and beautiful. The red and white colors complemented each other and were even more beautiful with the contrast of the leaves and branches. " The fragrance of other countries cannot be collected, and the poet's fragrance will sink into the water." It made her feel relaxed and happy.
Her love for roses was caused by Hua Shiliang. After they met, he gave her a bouquet of roses the first time he visited her at the Women's High School. Then, he did the same for the second and third time. "Do you like roses?" she asked.”He smiled at first, and after a while, he said that the European legend said that the rose and the goddess of love, Venus, were born at the same time. In other words, this honest man who symbolized love with roses was tactfully courting her. At that time, she was just envious of Hua Shiliang's talent and character, and could not fall in love. Although it was a little sudden, she still left every bouquet of roses and carefully placed them in a vase on the window table. Later, she found out from Bing Xin's poems that this female writer had a special liking for roses. Her brother also told her that there was a beautiful and kind girl named Mengjia in Mecca, the holy land of the Muslim religion in Europe. She was slandered by the scoundrel Hansiddan because she refused his love. The muslims believed him and tied her to firewood to burn her. Fortunately, the Celestial Thearch took pity on him and turned the unburned firewood into roses. Mengjiafang was saved and became even more beautiful. Just like that, she gradually developed a sense of reverence for Rose.
She had read a lot of poems about flowers by poets of the past dynasties, so she admired the flowers with the heart of a poet; Not only did she admire the graceful posture of the flowers, their rich fragrance, and their beautiful colors, but she also admired the spirit of the flowers that were not afraid of the wind and rain, the ice and snow, and the scorching sun. Therefore, she was not like the sentimental poet who shed tears and was sad because of the falling flowers. People had life and death, flowers had prosperity and withering, this was the law of nature. When the flowers bloomed, she cherished them. When the flowers withered, she would carefully take care of the bonsai. She had used her heart and blood to cultivate these bonsais, and she had also used her heart and blood to construct this garden. This small garden was her spiritual paradise. As time went by, this park gradually drowned out her sense of concern for her country and the people from her student days.
Hua Binghuan walked to Luo Yuzhen with a bowl of soy milk and meat filling square cake.""Mommy."
Luo Yuzhen didn't immediately pick up the breakfast that her son brought over.
Hua Binghuan understood what his mother meant. He placed the breakfast on the stone table and went to get some water.
"I'll go by myself." Luo Yuzhen stopped her son and went to the water tank under the eaves to wash her hands.
Hua Binghuan went to the guest hall to get a rattan chair for his mother to sit on."The fragrance of flowers overflows into the soybean milk. Mom, you can eat comfortably.”
Luo Yuzhen stroked her son's head happily and smiled in praise. This son was even lazier than his father, but he would sometimes be a little attentive to his mother. "Where's your sister?"
"Ah Ju said she went to school at dawn."”
Her daughter had been especially busy and excited these two days. Her meticulous mother could tell that her daughter, who was leaning toward the Great Party, must be busy welcoming the Great Party into the city. The people who came for treatment all said that the Great Party was about to invade D City. She was already very indifferent to politics, but she did not oppose her children's political beliefs. Every generation had their own beliefs, and parents should not interfere with the life path their children chose. She believed that her daughter, who was very independent, would not blindly be enthusiastic about Communism. Perhaps his daughter was right. With the arrival of the Great Party, the people would be able to live a happy life. If the Celestial Empire wanted to be strong and the people wanted to be at ease, there should be a wise political party in power. She revealed a satisfied smile.
"Mom, white roses are indeed prettier than red roses.”
Luo Yuzhen nodded in agreement.
"Dad said that it wasn't appropriate to compare Mom to a red rose in the past. It should be said that Mom was a white rose.”
"Don't listen to your father's nonsense. Why aren't you in school?"
"Class is suspended from today onwards."
Her son didn't tell her the reason, and Luo Yuzhen didn't ask. His lazy son was very diligent in his studies, probably because of the current situation. She didn't want a war to break out, as the rumbling of the cannons would destroy countless buildings, and countless civilians would be killed or injured. The warlords had been fighting for eight years, and the smoke of war had filled the air. The blood of the common people flowed everywhere. His daughter said that the cowardly party had destroyed the peace talks between the two countries and provoked the civil war. The Great Party had carried out this war of liberation for the sake of the people of the whole country. Therefore, the muzzle of the gun was only aimed at the cowardly party's army that stubbornly resisted. They would never destroy the houses and hurt the people. She hoped so. If a gunfight was inevitable, she hoped it would end as soon as possible.
Luo Yuzhen saw that her son was about to go out. He asked where to go.
Hua Binghuan said he was going to look for Shen Huilian. The Shen siblings were fishermen and they made a living by fishing in small boats. They were the lowest class in D City and were the most discriminated against. Luo Yuzhen and Hua Shiliang did not have any worldly views. They loved this poor brother and sister very much. The older brother was simple and honest, while the younger sister was smart and beautiful. His parents had died when he was young, and his strong will and pure heart had been soaked in bitterness. She said approvingly," Go ahead. Tell them to stop at the river dock in front of our house. Don't fish for the next few days. It's safer to stay at our house."”
"Thank you, Mommy!" Bing Huan was surprised by his own words.
Luo Yuzhen understood her son's thoughts. She didn't want to expose him and embarrass him, so she just smiled. Bing Huan also understood the meaning of his mother's smile. He was afraid that his mother would see his red face and left in a hurry.
The clock in the guest hall struck eight. In the past, there were already many patients in the guest hall, but today, there were no patients. Luo Yuzhen guessed that it had something to do with the current situation. She just didn't know that the four city gates were already under martial law and no one was allowed to enter and exit.
Luo Yuzhen had just walked into the medicine room in the east wing when the nun of Guanyin Hall walked in. The two of them were good classmates in primary school. After graduation, they became good friends. If her husband was an officer of the 19th Route Army and died in the "8.13" War of Resistance against Japan, she would be completely disheartened. Although Luo Yuzhen tried her best to dissuade her, she still entered Buddhism. Luo Yuzhen pitied her even more. She only had contact with Luo Yuzhen.
Luo Yuzhen felt that it was too expensive and didn't want to accept it.""You're a vegetarian and have poor nutrition. You should eat more supplements yourself. I'm afraid I'll get fat.”
"This is a gift from a devotee. You know that I never like to eat tonics.”
"Then let Kong eat it. She fell seriously ill last year and needs to recuperate.”
Liaokong was Ru's disciple and adopted daughter. She had contracted typhoid fever last year. It was all thanks to the meticulous treatment and care of Hua Shiliang and his wife that she had escaped death. After she recovered, Luo Yuzhen refused to even collect medical fees. She always felt bad. Today, he was giving Yan Wo a small token of his appreciation. She said in a roundabout manner," I thought so too. It's a thoughtful thought. She asked me to send it over. This child is always thinking about the benefits you've given her.”
"You and I are sisters. Miss Liaokong was steady and dignified, and her comprehension was high. I like it too. Take it back and enjoy it with you.”
"We're also borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha. We didn't buy it on purpose. If you refuse again, it will seem distant.”
Luo Yuzhen saw that if she said so, she would get angry if she refused, so she stopped nagging. The two of them went to the small garden together. Luo Yuzhen specially made a pot of good tea with Yixing purple sand tea set. As such, they paid attention to the art of tea.
She picked up the teacup and sipped the tea."This is Mogan Mountain's Cloud Mist Tea. It's a tender tea picked seven days before Qingming.”
Luo Yuzhen was very impressed with Ru's tea tasting skills.""It was a gift from a relative of Mogan Mountain. They only pick two catties of such tender tea a year, but they sent us one catty.”
Luo Yuzhen found that she was happier than before and asked the reason.
If she didn't hide it, Cai Jiannan told her that the Great Party was about to free D City. He, an underground member of the Great Party who had been tortured by the cowardly party, was just as bitter as the people of D City. He could stand tall and be a man. He could finally display his ambition for the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. So she was happy for him.
Luo Yuzhen knew the inside story. After her husband died, she was so sad that she wanted to die. It was Cai Jiannan who found out and saved her. Cai Jiannan fell in love with her, but she was unwilling to marry again. Cai Jiannan neither insisted nor was willing to remarry. The two of them just silently maintained their pure love.
If you don't know how to plant flowers, you love to admire them. When she saw the pot of white roses, she exclaimed that it was a rare flower.
"If you like it, I'll get Uncle to send it over later."”
"Amitabha. I don't know how to raise flowers. If you give it to me, won't this wondrous flower wither in vain? Sin! I'm close, so it's better to come and watch often.”If she knew that Luo Yuzhen was helping Hua Shiliang with the clinic, she would leave after sipping some tea.
After Luo Yuzhen sent him off, she asked her uncle, Hua Shijie, to deliver the box of bird's nest to Jiang Shanshan. So that Jiang Shanshan could nourish herself after giving birth.
Waz Jeb took the bird's nest and left. Firstly, he loved to hear his sister-in-law's words. Secondly, Jiang Shanshan treated him like a younger brother.
Luo Yuzhen went upstairs to get two pieces of poplin that she had bought earlier and placed them in the medicine cabinet. She was waiting for her son to come back and give them to Shen Shuigen, the gardener. Shen Shuigen and his wife had no children. He relied on growing flowers to survive. In recent years, the flower business had not been good, so his life had naturally been a little difficult. He had painstakingly cultivated this pot of white roses and sent it over, but he refused to accept a single cent. She didn't feel too good about it. Shuigen's birthday was approaching, so she wanted them to wear new silk clothes and celebrate their birthday happily.
Luo Yuzhen had just finished preparing medicine for a patient when she heard her uncle calling her " sister-in-law " outside. She looked through the glass window at the door and saw her uncle standing in the garden with a pot of begonia in his hands. She quickly walked out.
Hua Shijie put down the pot of begonia according to his sister-in-law's instructions and said that Sister Shanshan asked him to bring it to his sister-in-law.
Luo Yuzhen saw that the pot of crabapple was not only planted in a white porcelain pot with gold paint, but the shape of the flower branches was also very good. It was already flourishing and full of branches. The delicate flowers were like shy girls with their heads lowered, beautiful and cute. She couldn't help but recite the ancient poem about the begonia flowers,"" It's raining at night, I'm so lazy that the east wind blows. Begonia is enchanting, please stay..."
Jiang Shanshan had already walked to her side and continued to chant,""Quietly in the courtyard, try to listen carefully to the birds and swallows. It is clear that people are sad and afraid of spring.……"He suddenly stopped and sighed.
Luo Yuzhen knew that Jiang Shanshan didn't plant flowers, so she said,""Such a good pot of flowers must be very expensive. I really don't deserve it.“
Although Jiang Shanshan loved Jin Yimin deeply, she was also very concerned about her reputation. Usually, he restrained himself and did not come and go frequently. Moreover, it was always at night. He was afraid that others would gossip and ruin the reputation of both parties. However, she did not hide her relationship with Jin Yimin from Luo Yuzhen. She whispered in Luo Yuzhen's ear that the flowers were from Jin Yimin.
Luo Yuzhen also said softly," Then I can't take it. You can't let him down.”
"I'm afraid that I'll let him down, so I asked you to take care of him.”
Hua Shijie came out with two cups of tea.
Luo Yuzhen saw that it was a flag spear, so she asked her uncle to make another cup of Mountain Mist. However, Jiang Shanshan stopped him." I love the Flag Spear Tea. Don't waste your time."”
Fang Zhaorong held a teacup and went into the guest hall to chat with Hua Shiliang.
Luo Yuzhen waited for her uncle to enter the guest hall and asked,""Just now, when you recited the poem, you sighed softly, as if there was an indescribable sadness.”
"You elf, I can't hide anything from you.”Jiang Shanshan told him everything that was on her mind.
Luo Yuzhen was also secretly worried for her and comforted her,""Jin Yimin is a good person and doesn't have any grudges. Even if the Great Party comes, they might not punish him. You don't like him to eat politics in the first place. He's a construction engineer, so you persuade him to defect and obtain the understanding and tolerance of the great party. -- You can't be anxious and ruin the fetus.”
Fang Zhaorong returned to the garden. He knew very well that Hua Shiliang had the best medical skills and expertise among the western doctors in the neighboring counties. If the Great Party came, they would not let him be the hospital director. As the old saying goes, every generation of emperors will be officials. He thought about it and decided that the best way out was to jointly operate a hospital with Hua Shiliang. Hua Shiliang was a bookworm. He wouldn't make a decision on such a big matter. As long as the virtuous wife nodded, he, Hua Shiliang, would never say no. Therefore, he came over to encourage Luo Yuzhen.
Luo Yuzhen respected her husband very much, so she said," This is a man's business. Us women shouldn't interfere. You should discuss it with Shi Liang."
Fang Zhaorong wanted to continue, but when he saw that Jiang Shanshan was unhappy, he shut his mouth. He thought that it was hard to say whether the Great Party could enter D City, so there was no need to rush to encourage them. He should go home and persuade his wife first, and Shanshan should talk to Luo Yuzhen.
It was a good idea for Jiang Shanshan to co-operate with the hospital. Jin Yimin's father had plenty of money. If he let Yimin fork out the money and the Hua family provide the technology, they would form a partnership to set up the hospital. If the great party came, Jin Yimin could retire to the hospital and become the deputy director to do some management work. She first urged Fang Zhaorong to go to the hospital before telling Luo Yuzhen her thoughts. He said,"The hospital mainly relies on the doctor's skills. Brother Shiliang should be the director." You guys take 80% of the income, and Jin Yimin takes 20%. Anyway, I don't want to take his money. He's also a person who despises money and values righteousness. I'm relieved that he's sitting upright.”
Luo Yuzhen felt that Jiang Shanshan's idea was very good, and Jin Yimin's professionalism was difficult to display in D City. He said,"It's hard for you to be so affectionate. I'll go and discuss it with Shiliang." If it's really done, you'll be in charge. As for the income, they would split it in half. No one would get more, and no one would get less. It was not easy to run a hospital. Not only did it have internal medicine, but it also had to have surgery, gynecology, facial features, and so on. They had to find doctors in this field.”
"Just invite some famous doctors over. I'll go and look for them. If the funds are not enough, I can still discuss it with Dad.”
"There's no rush. If we want to do it, we have to fork out the funds. This matter needs to be carefully planned. You can't eat hot porridge in a hurry. Don't tell Jin Yimin for the time being when you go back. We don't want to borrow the power in his hands. We only rely on our own financial resources and medical skills. I'll tell you when I've discussed it with Shi Liang. At that time, I'll build it with you.”
"Yes, just the two of us sisters will host it. To be honest, I'm still worried about the men. Yimin was a bookworm, and Brother Shiliang was a famous doctor who only knew how to treat illnesses. Fang Zhaorong was even shorter than the two of them. He was nothing. You and I are only staying at home for the sake of peace. If we are right, we will charge through a mountain of knives and a sea of flames.”
"I'm not such a capable person. Don't think too highly of me.”
"Do I not know you? To be honest, you are several times stronger than me. It is just that you are unwilling to speak before things are done. Compared to you, I'm a little impetuous."
"I should say that you're more daring than me.”
Jiang Shanshan was afraid that she would delay Luo Yuzhen's work in the clinic and that Jin Yimin would not be able to find her. She had a premonition that Jin Yimin would go to her house during the day, so she said that she wanted to leave.
Seeing that she couldn't keep her, Luo Yuzhen asked her uncle to send her there. Jiang Shanshan was almost Dayue's man, so she was worried.
Luo Yuzhen returned to the guest room. The room was empty and there was no patient. She then remembered that the patient had said that the entire city was under martial law and that no one would come to treat her today. She was afraid that her husband would be lonely sitting there, so she turned on the phonograph. Both husband and wife loved to listen to music and opera. Usually, after dinner, they would make a pot of good tea, turn on the phonograph, and listen to it for half an hour. She first played the song " The Fisherman's Song " and then changed to a Beijing opera record, which was Mei Lanfang's " Sword of the Universe ". Because her husband loved to listen to Beijing opera, he said that the singing was mellow and graceful.
The room was filled with the fragrance of flowers and music. The couple looked at each other lovingly, and their hearts were filled with sweet warmth.
Just as she was immersed in her blissful life, she thought of the crazy uncle, Hua Shixian. She wondered if the uncle would hear the sudden sound of gunfire and run around crazily. If he was hit by a bullet, she would have to ask her son to invite the uncle home. She was anxiously waiting for her son to return.
The clock in the guest hall was ticking, and she felt that it was slow and leisurely.
