Oncology Physician Life

Chapter 28 Chapter 27 Time is Amber
At five o'clock in the afternoon, after greeting the doctor on duty in the department, Tan Tan took Xu Youshu to wait in the lobby on the first floor of the hospital's oncology department building.Tan Tan took his mobile phone and called two Didi cars. Because Zhang Linlin, a resident doctor in the Department of Oncology Surgery, was also going with everyone, the originally planned car obviously couldn't fit.

Zhang Linlin specially changed into a long floral dress, put her coiled hair down, and wore high heels on her feet, looking very elegant.

Seeing Tan Tan and Xu Youshu in the hall, Zhang Linlin raised her leg and walked over: "Aren't Kang Jun and Lu Jiajia here yet?"

Tan Tan replied: "It should be that the medical oncology department has something to do temporarily, so I can't leave."

"This year's new year's gathering place, or that cafeteria?" Zhang Linlin took out her phone and sent Lu Jiajia a WeChat message.

"Director Song Zhiguo really likes that cafeteria. Didn't the boss specially give out so many discount coupons last year? This time it should be the same restaurant. There is no change."

Zhang Linlin frowned slightly: "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't be wearing this dress. Every time I finish eating, I would smell like barbecue."

Xu Youshu looked a little nervous: "Brother, during the meal, do we need to toast the leader? What should we say then?"

Zhang Linlin waved her hand: "Everyone is very casual, and the directors are very approachable. The premise is that Li Anran, the deputy director of the oncology department, does not eat Wagyu."

"He Niu?" Xu Youshu was taken aback, "What's so special about this?"

Tan Tan smiled: "No, that is, Deputy Director Li Anran studied in the human anatomy laboratory for a period of time before. She was more interested in the body structure of the human body and animals, and developed a special habit. In the case of beef, she will break down the texture and fat of the meat one by one like a surgical dissection. When I saw that scene for the first time, the back of my neck was covered with cold sweat."

Within a few minutes, Kang Jun and Lu Jiajia walked over together, and Tan Tan waved his hands: "Just in time, my name Didi is coming soon."

A few people had just walked out of the hospital, looking at the bustling intersection, someone yelled "It's raining", and indeed there were raindrops falling from the sky.

Tan Tan raised his head and glanced at the sky. The sky was blue one second, but it was covered with dark clouds in the blink of an eye.Shanghai has an oceanic monsoon climate, and the weather changes a bit quickly. When it catches up with the rainy season, the weather forecast is always not so accurate.

Fortunately, Xu Youshu prepared two umbrellas. He handed one to Kang Jun and Lu Jiajia, and the other to Tan Tan and Zhang Linlin, while he lifted his schoolbag and put it on his head.

Kang Jun naturally took the handle of the umbrella and stood side by side with Lu Jiajia. There was a height difference of half a head between the two of them. Lu Jiajia moved closer to Kang Jun, just in time to smell the aroma of gardenias on Kang Jun.She rolled up a strand of hair in front of her ears, secretly glanced at Kang Jun's thin cheeks, and rubbed her hands together involuntarily.

Tan Tan asked Xu Youshu to come over, the three squeezed together, Xu Youshu waved his hand and refused, just when the online car-hailing car drove over, Kang Jun and Lu Jiajia got into the back car, Tan Tan and Zhang Linlin got into the front car, Xu Youshu glanced at the two, Wanting to leave some space for Tan Tan and Zhang Linlin, he took the initiative to walk to the car behind.

The rain finally started to fall near the evening rush hour, and there were suddenly fewer pedestrians on the street, but it brought a rare refreshment to the sweltering weather.

When the five people arrived at the dinner party, there was already laughter in the box. Many doctors came to the oncology department, but the main ones were surgical oncology and internal oncology. Song Zhiguo and Qi Song sat at the main seats. All the interns came and hurriedly seated everyone.

The oncology department is full of high-intensity work on weekdays, and it is rare to have such a relaxing dinner time.

Song Zhiguo glanced roughly, and sighed: "It's really the waves behind the Yangtze River pushing the waves ahead. I think it was 30 years ago when I was an intern. Now I have become the director of the department. I remember Director Qi and The first batch of interns and regular trainees in the oncology department I brought together, and Lao Qi and I both became deputy seniors after more than 20 years of hard work. How could there be so many talents in those days, such as graduates from Harvard Medical School, What about graduate students and doctoral students? Back then, it was rare to have a returnee in the department. Look at it now, like Professor Ji Hanji of the tumor surgery department, he is also a returnee. He was promoted to deputy high school with his excellent surgical skills within a few years of being an attending surgeon. Yes. Oh, Professor Ji didn't come this time."

Li Anran took the conversation: "Director Song, Dr. Wei Ranwei from our department didn't come either."

Qi Song glanced at the dinner table: "Director Pei and Professor Jiang Lijiang didn't come either? This time everyone is planning to congratulate Professor Jiang on his return, so we specially invited her!"

Xiong Xiong from the Medical Oncology Department said: "Director, you are so funny. When did the three-person team in our hospital participate in a party in the department?"

Song Zhiguo muttered: "What's the matter with the three of them, they don't get along every time, so why didn't Professor Jiang come!"

After a while, several interns took the lead in toasting. Song Zhiguo had to go to other provinces for a meeting on Sunday, so he replaced wine with tea. Tan Tan didn't want to drink it at first, but he couldn't refuse, so he drank a glass of beer.

Xu Youshu and Kang Jun drank three cups, and the alcohol in their stomachs reacted. Some residents had to go back to work at night. The party lasted for an hour and a half, and everyone broke up.

Tan Tan helped Xu Youshu, and Lu Jiajia helped Kang Jun out of the restaurant. The rain outside had stopped, the ground was wet, and when the wind blew, Xu Youshu's stomach churns, and the barbecue he just ate surged up. up.

Zhang Linlin looked at the two people who were intolerant to alcohol, and proposed to walk back. Just in time to sober up, they walked all the way down the pedestrian street.

On the other side, when the rain didn’t stop, Wei Ran drove Pei Xiaonan, Ji Han, and Jiang Li through the streets and alleys, towards the new city in the old district behind the university, where a family has been operating for 30 years The old shop is very popular among college students.

The boss is a native of the Northeast, and he opened this barbecue restaurant. It is a buffet, 34 yuan per person, and you can eat whatever you want. Every Saturday and Sunday, the store is full, and all the students from the university come to have dinner. The barbecue given by the boss Portions are also generous.

This is an old shop in the downtown area. The low walls outside the shop are filled with the animation world of Hayao Miyazaki, Howl's Moving Castle, the big fat Totoro and Satsuki in Totoro. The two sisters, Xiaomei, are like a fairy tale world.

When the four of them went to college, this was the secret base of the four of them, but after graduation, as the work became more and more busy, more often, even the normal vacations were gone. The last time the four of them got together here was seven years ago. The time before Qian Jiangli went abroad.

The store retains the previous decoration. There is a large iron baking tray in the middle of the solid wood table, and the hazy yellow light shines on it, illuminating countless photos on the walls on both sides. They are the youth diaries left by the students. Full of memories.

The boss is over 50 years old. Last year, he had an operation because of a tumor in his leg, which made him unable to move around. Wei Ran enthusiastically called the boss’ name, Lao Wang. Wang's surgery was arranged by Wei Ran himself.

Many new employees were recruited in the store. The young student wearing glasses in front of the bar looked up at the four of them.

Lao Wang warmly greeted the four of them to sit down, and gave each of them a glass of non-alcoholic Mojito for free. The juice was stirred inside, and the ice cubes bubbled under the action of Sprite.

There were three orange cats in Lao Wang's store, and a very fat orange cat jumped into Jiang Li's arms, turning its belly lazily for people to touch it, but Ji Han hurriedly brought the orange cat over and let it go. on the ground.

After Jiang Li's mother passed away seven years ago, Jiang Li was under a lot of pressure at work for a while, which caused her immune system to have problems, and she developed symptoms of animal hair allergies.Jiang Li didn't tell anyone about this, but Ji Han remembered it very clearly.

Ji Han carefully removed the cat hair from Jiang Li's clothes with his hands.

Sitting opposite the two, Pei Xiaonan propped his chin with one hand, looked at the picture of the two, and laughed: "To be honest, Jiang Jiang, have you considered remarrying when you return to China this time?"

Jiang Li shook his head: "I really haven't thought about this question."

Pei Xiaonan persisted and asked: "I saw you and Gu Jun from the thoracic surgery department the other day. The two of you were very close in the back garden of the hospital. To tell the truth, is Gu Jun the two of you when you were abroad? I used to study in a university, he is interested in you, don't pretend that you don't know, this time Gu Jun came back from abroad, nine times out of ten, he came back for you!"

"Gu Jun?" Jiang Li was taken aback, "Probably not, Gu Jun doesn't like my type."

"By the way, how are you and your rich second-generation boyfriend?" Jiang Li picked up a biscuit from the dinner plate and took a bite, changing the subject.

Pei Xiaonan sighed: "It was still during the Cold War, last time we had a big fight in the restaurant."

Wei Ran enthusiastically chose a large plate of Jiwei shrimp in the seafood area, moved another table of barbecue, sat down, and was about to move.

Pei Xiaonan gave him a blank look: "Old Wei, do you want to eat yourself like a pig?"

Wei Ran turned to look at her: "Then do you want to eat?"

Pei Xiaonan rolled up his sleeves: "Why don't you eat it, I want to cook the shrimp well."

After a while, the store was full of people, most of whom were students from nearby universities.

At this time, outside the store, Gu Jun parked the car firmly on the side of the street. He originally made an appointment with a friend from the old university to have a party at a script killing shop here. As soon as he got off the car, he saw the next door. In the barbecue shop, the four of Jiang Li were sitting together talking and laughing.

Gu Jun looked at Ji Han beside Jiang Li, raised his eyebrows, took out his mobile phone and called his friend who was already in the script killing shop, and said, "I'm sorry, I have a temporary operation here, let's make an appointment next time." !"

After speaking, he walked towards the barbecue shop.

Jiang Li likes to eat meat with lettuce, but Pei Xiaonan likes to eat meat with persimmon leaves. It just so happens that Wei Ran likes persimmon leaves, and Ji Han likes lettuce. Just when the four of them were feeling this familiar taste, Gu Jun’s voice suddenly came from beside them ,
"Jiang Li, you guys come here to eat? What a coincidence, I am too," Gu Junyi smiled and narrowed his eyes, "But there is just no place, what a pity, I like to eat the barbecue at this restaurant the most."

Pei Xiaonan glanced at it, and there was clearly an empty table in the corner, and he muttered to himself, eating barbecue is fake, but coming to find someone is real.

Jiang Li hurriedly stood up and said, "Then if you don't mind..."

Before Jiang Li could finish speaking, Gu Jun had already moved a chair, sat next to Jiang Li, and smiled: "I don't mind, I don't mind at all."

Pei Xiaonan looked at Gu Jun, and then at Ji Han, who was obviously darkened, with a smile on his face: "Doctor Gu, it's really great that you also like to eat the barbecue here."

As he spoke, he put all the fat on the grill into Gu Jun's bowl, and said with a smile, "The fat here is as good as roasted pig intestines. Since Dr. Gu likes it, eat more."

Gu Jun is already used to living abroad, and because of his fitness, he hasn't eaten such a greasy food for many years. He looked at the oily pig intestines in front of him, and saw four people staring at him, so he could only bite the bullet Picking up the chopsticks, he picked up a piece of pig intestine and put it into his mouth. He tasted it like wax, and he smiled: "It's really good, it tastes like this."

Pei Xiaonan looked at Gu Jun's body shape and smiled: "Doctor Gu should exercise regularly, eating such a high-calorie food can maintain such a good figure."

Gu Jun looked at Jiang Li and nodded in agreement: "If Professor Jiang also likes to exercise, I can be your instructor."

Jiang Li naturally saw that Pei Xiaonan deliberately made things difficult for Gu Jun, so he ate a piece of shiitake mushroom and said, "I don't like fitness, but I like boxing."

"Punch?" Gu Jun and Ji Han were both taken aback.

Jiang Li nodded: "When I was abroad, one of the exercises I found to relieve stress was boxing. I quite liked it. Sometimes I would go camping or mountaineering occasionally."

"Mountain climbing and camping?" Pei Xiaonan thought about it, and suggested, "Jiang Jiang, why don't the four of us go camping together someday?"

"Okay, no problem." Jiang Li nodded.

Gu Jun coughed lightly: "Actually, I really like camping, why don't we go together?"

The four of them didn't speak, and Gu Jun was a little embarrassed seeing that no one spoke to them.

Soon, Wei Ran finished roasting the prawns, and Ji Han naturally picked one up, peeled the prawns, and put them in Jiang Li's bowl, just like before when the two were not divorced, Ji Han gave it to him every time. Jiang Li peels the shrimp.

He knew that Jiang Li liked to eat shrimp, but he didn't eat it often, because the surgeon had to perform operations frequently, peeling the shrimp would easily leave residues in his nails, which would stain his hands, and it would be troublesome to clean.

Gu Jun watched Ji Han's movements, picked up the empty bowl, and asked, "Jiang Li, what kind of sauce do you want to eat? I remember when you were abroad, you liked sweet and sour ones the most. Add lemon juice, right?" ?”

Jiang Li nodded: "Yes, we need to add a little tomato sauce."

Gu Jun made an ok gesture towards her: "No problem."

Looking at Gu Jun's back, Pei Xiaonan suddenly asked, "To be honest, what is your relationship with Gu Jun?"

Jiang Li looked up: "It's really just a friendship!"

Pei Xiaonan was dubious: "It's really just friends?"

Jiang Li nodded heavily: "It's really just friends."

After a while, Gu Jun turned back, picked up the serving chopsticks, and picked up a piece of grilled fish for Jiang Li: "I remember you used to like fish the most, eat more."

Ji Han on the other side peeled a bowl of grilled shrimp and put it in front of Jiang Li: "The grilled shrimp is not bad, eat more. I remember you don't like carp, it has more spines."

Gu Jun took a look at Ji Han, and Ji Han looked away calmly and continued to peel the shrimp.

Gu Jun smiled slightly, and put the fried crab that he just brought back from the self-service area in front of Jiang Li: "The crab here is also good, much better than shrimp, next time you come to my house, I will make fried crab for you personally, The fried crabs I cook are as good as those in the typhoon shelter."

Wei Ran looked at Ji Han and Gu Jun who were jealous of each other, glanced casually, and suddenly saw an old photo on the wall. The photo was a group photo of Jiang Li, Ji Han, Pei Xiaonan, and Wei Ran when they were in college.

At that time, the four of them still looked very young.

Wei Ran pointed to the photo and said: "It turns out that we posted this photo here, and there is a date on it. It was taken in March 2014 when we graduated from university and just started our internship."

Jiang Li looked at the photo and laughed, there was a pile of empty barbecue plates in front of the four of them: "I still remember that time, it seemed that the four of us had just started our internship and were penniless, and this meal was saved by Ji Han. Weekly pocket money, treat the three of us to eat! At that time, Wei Ran ate more than 30 pairs of grilled chicken wings by himself, and the boss looked stupid."

Wei Ran laughed: "I was just an intern at that time, and my monthly salary was only 2000 yuan, and I had to call 1800 yuan to my family every month. My sister was still in high school at that time, and my mother was the only one working at home. Point, but I really felt like a man at the time."

Pei Xiaonan looked at Wei Ran and grinned sarcastically: "It's just you, man, do you still remember that in the first month of your internship, your salary was 300 yuan less, and you dare not go to the hospital's accountant yourself? It's my mother who helped you I went to find the accounting theory, and I wanted the 300 yuan back. Another time, you were rotated to the outside of the chest, and you were bullied by the resident doctor outside the chest. You hid in the corner of the infirmary and cried by yourself, like a woman. My old lady blocked that resident doctor for you to get off work, and taught him a lesson!"

"When Xiaonan said that, I remembered it," Jiang Li laughed, "At that time, Wei Wei was indeed very stupid. He was like a little fool when he was an intern. When he was free, he walked around behind Xiaonan every day. .”

Pei Xiaonan wrapped his arms around Wei Ran's neck and held him in his arms: "Who am I? The relationship between me and Old Wei is iron-clad!"

Wei Ran looked at Jiang Li: "I still remember that when Jiang Li first came to the hospital, she was very stupid and uncouth, like the intern doctor's venous central catheter implantation, she always couldn't understand it, and every time she had to teach the teacher Damn, I hid in the simulation room and practiced secretly. At that time, it was Ji Han who taught you by hand. He finished following the stage every day, and he had to save the rest time to teach you various teaching knowledge. At that time, we all Guan Jihan is called Teacher Ji."

Jiang Li nodded, and looked at Ji Han beside him. Even if the two divorced, there are some people who will always remain deep in your memory. Maybe you are not the closest lover, but you are in the green years. , the person who occupies your entire youthful memory.

Gu Jun looked at the four of them talking, but he seemed like an outsider. He understood that Jiang Li and Ji Han had many good memories, but he believed that she never had himself in her youth, but her future would definitely belong to him .

After dinner, Gu Jun wanted to send Jiang Li home, Jiang Li looked at the three people waiting for him not far away, and smiled at Gu Jun: "No, my friends are still waiting for me."

Gu Jun nodded, looking at Jiang Li running towards the back of the three of them, with a look of disappointment and envy.

On the street at night, the sky was extremely low, and several people walked down the pedestrian street with delicate steps.

The cold wind from the street blows, carrying the smell of mud after the rain, across the heart, not far from the Bund, suddenly bright fireworks burst out, breaking through the hazy night sky.

Ji Han looked at Jiang Li who was walking beside him, and suddenly said: "Ali, you know, during the seven years you went abroad, I kept telling myself that there must be opportunities in the future, and I will definitely have the opportunity to meet you again." To you, as long as I guard our home, you will definitely come back, and we will talk to each other about everything, eat and chat, and discuss the illness together as before. I still have a lot to say to you. "

Jiang Li looked at Ji Han beside her, trivial memories piled up in her mind like catkins, she remembered that they skipped class together in college, paced back and forth on a certain road together, and held hands together , counting the lines of each other's palms.

At that time, they wanted to repeat their whole life as a day, but they missed it after all.

Just like that sentence, the biggest regret in this world is that we can start well, but fail to say goodbye well.

Jiang Li didn't answer Ji Han's words, Wei Ran suddenly pushed Pei Xiaonan and ran over not far away.

Wei Ran stood on the stone pier, looked at his three best friends below, and said loudly: "Let's form a four-person group! Just like the band we formed together when we were in college, every Friday we We all went to the secret base, had dinner together, and sang together, after all, I haven't given up on my lead singer dream!"

Pei Xiaonan pointed to the statue behind Wei Ran: "Look at that statue, it's so stupid, does it look like Wei Ran?"

Jiang Li took a look: "It's really similar."

Ji Han sneered: "The statue is not as ugly as Wei Ran, the statue will be angry if you say so!"

The three turned and walked away.

Wei Ran hurriedly chased after him: "Okay? Then I'll take it as the three of you agreed! Let's form a band and I'll be the lead singer!"

Pei Xiaonan objected: "Why are you the lead singer, my sister also has a heart to be a singer!"

Jiang Li and Ji Han hurriedly shook their heads: "You can't, you're singing out of tune!"

Pei Xiaonan was not convinced: "My singing is out of tune? Who said that? If you don't agree, let's compare!"

The four of them walked down the street, and when they passed the underground pedestrian passage, they just heard the singing of a vagabond singer.

Time is amber, tears drop by drop, locked behind;

No matter how immortal a love letter is, it will be ground into an hourglass;
Upstream of youth, white clouds fly away, gray dogs and seagulls;

Thoughts flashed by, gurgling away;
Destiny is so humorous, it silences those you love;
A whole universe, for a red bean...
