Xu Xuzhi

Chapter 59

After a while, Ke Weili had sent Feng Jiu to the gate of Union Medical College, while he waited quietly outside the school gate. Feng Jiu said that he would be out in about two quarters of an hour.

Feng Jiu went to the girls' dormitory first, and gave Qiaozhi some delicious food, including a short jar of "wrong vegetables" made by the mansion chef Wang Baotian last year that Ning Zheng couldn't forget, and gave them to the shepherd. The supervisor kept and signed the guest registration book, and then went to the classroom where she was studying to find someone according to Qiaozhi's schedule.

Concord Medical College was funded and established by the Rockefeller family in the United States. The eight-year schooling period sounds scary, but it will be a doctor of medicine when it comes out. Of course, if you can graduate smoothly.

Qiaozhi chose to major in clinical medicine. She wanted to be an obstetrician and gynecologist in the future, because she felt that too many Chinese women died in childbirth, and her mother hurt her body when she gave birth to her, so she became a doctor. A heart attack can kill a life.

Fengjiu has long seen that Qiaozhi must be a great achiever. She is determined, lively and bold. The fact that she chose the eight-year medical course without hesitation is enough to show that she has a tenacious quality.

Concord, like other medical schools in the world, is a small university with a very small number of students.

After Feng Jiu inquired clearly, he went straight to the teaching building of the Department of Clinical Medicine.

Before the second get out of class was over, Feng Jiu looked through the glass of the classroom door and saw Qiao Zhi with a centipede braid and starry bangs, wearing an indanthrene blue cloth coat, listening carefully, Feng Jiu Jiu glanced at the textbook "Histology and Embryology" that was folded on the desk by the student closest to him.The class was taught by a Westerner. Although Fengjiu's English standard is high, she really couldn't understand the words that came out of the teacher's mouth this time... No wonder she said "interlacing is so mountainous", Nobuo.

Feng Jiu looked at her watch, there were still 5 minutes before the end of get out of class, her eyes swept away boredly, and immediately found the clue: in the back seat of Qiaozhi, sitting a man with extremely neatly trimmed sideburns and a high bridge of nose A young male with strikingly thick black hair.For a while, he listened intently to the teacher's lecture and took notes. For a while, his eyes seemed to be unintentional, but he focused on the female student in the front seat, with a smile on his lips, as leisurely as a light ink landscape painting, and his calm demeanor was very eye-catching.

Feng Jiu then observed carefully, and it was obvious that Shi Jun had intentions, but Luo Fu was ruthless.

Feng Jiu smiled. Qiaozhi's stature has obviously grown in the past two years. Although she is only seventeen, she is already a very conspicuous beauty. Her temperament still has such an inexplicable sense of familiarity; if Put Ning Zheng next to her, and those who are puzzled will suddenly realize: It turns out that Qiaozhi is so similar to her real brother, although the facial features are not similar.

After a while, the teacher dismissed get out of class a few minutes early, Feng Jiu pulled down the brim of the tooth-white cloche hat he was wearing on his head that matched his spring dress of duck-egg blue soft silk, and leaned against the wall as unobtrusively as possible , but her tall and graceful figure still attracted the attention of many students pouring out of the classroom, and suddenly heard a cry of "sister-in-law three" with surprise, Feng Jiu knew it, and Qiaozhi discovered it.

She raised her head with a smile and looked at Qiaozhi, so even the classmates around Qiaozhi felt bathed in a warm gaze.

Many people stopped to admire this rare beauty, Fengjiu blushed a little: she didn't like that it was not because of her talent, but because of her appearance or identity, she was a bit weird of paranoia.

It seems that the reason why she doesn't like to hold weddings is the same: everyone is of course the absolute protagonist in their own wedding, but everyone's attention is not because you have something worth paying attention to, it's just because in the objective environment, everyone is forced to Just pay attention to the protagonist of the ceremony.

Qiaozhi literally ran over three feet high, and put her arms around Feng Jiu's waist: she was about the same height as Feng Jiu now.

Feng Jiu looked over her shoulder, the calm boy looked at Qiaozhi with regret, Feng Jiu guessed that there might be some other plans, which was disturbed by himself.

Today's time is very fast, and I have to go to see Xiuwei after watching Qiaozhi, and Qiaozhi still has classes in the next two periods, so she put her arms around Qiaozhi's shoulders, and the sister-in-law came out from the other end of the corridor affectionately In the teaching building, I sat on a stone bench in the small garden outside and chatted for a while.

Feng Jiu first told Qiaozhi that the old man was going to withdraw from the customs, Qiaozhi immediately showed an anxious look, Feng Jiu hurriedly reassured her, today's announcement is just to make her prepare in advance, it will not affect her studies of.

After all, it is the late 20s of the Republic of China, and the complicated and repeated fighting between warlords will basically not affect their families.The times have progressed, and such a thing without a bottom line has been agreed by warlords all over the world to be inferior.

Qiaozhi immediately breathed a sigh of relief, she loves her major so much, lives a vigorous life every day, and it feels so good to be independent, she doesn't want to ruin this.

Feng Jiu told Qiaozhi that all the delicious food brought to her was sent to her dormitory. Qiaozhi was overjoyed at first, but then became discouraged, saying that the ladies who shared the same bed were all too good to eat. The delicious food I brought was eaten up before I could even take a few bites.

Feng Jiu said nonchalantly, then when their family members come to visit relatives, you will steal them too.

Qiaozhi wrinkled her nose and asked with a playful smile, how did you know, sister-in-law San?That's what I do.

Feng Jiu is right, female college students all over China do this, and no one suffers.The two laughed.

Unknowingly, 10 minutes passed, and Qiaozhi's third class was about to start again. Before leaving, Feng Jiu said narrowly, "The boy sitting behind you in the last class stared at you. It's half a class, it looks pretty good, worthy of our Qiaozhi."

Qiaozhi was taken aback, completely at a loss, Feng Jiu smiled and knew that this person was also ignorant.She sent Qiaozhi to the side door of the teaching building, waved her hand to let her in quickly, Qiaozhi hugged her, and reluctantly went in.

Feng Jiu hurried out of Xiehe and saw Ke Weili who was patiently waiting at the door.He had a cigarette in his mouth, with a relaxed expression on his face. This posture loosened his usual dignified image, making him look very chic. People passing by couldn't help but be attracted to look more at this handsome man.

Feng Jiu apologized for waiting longer than the estimated time, but Ke Weili didn't care, saying that Mrs. Ning, your speed is quite fast among the ladies, and his mother and sisters really have no sense of time.

The two drove all the way to Yenching University, but luckily it was not too far away.

When he got there, Ke Weili didn't say anything else, but those firm eyes said everything.Feng Jiu remembered what he had entrusted to him, and matched his expression, as if he would not give up if he asked a satisfactory answer. Feng Jiu nodded solemnly, full of sense of responsibility.

Feng Jiu took the class schedule given by Ke Weili, and quickly found Xiuwei who had no classes for three or four classes on the third floor of the library. As soon as they met, the two best friends who hadn't seen each other for a while hugged each other like no one else, silently Smiling and shaking, causing others to stare, they quickly let go of each other embarrassingly, and flew out of the library, each holding a bottle of homemade porcelain pot honey sold in the library Yogurt and a small wooden spoon.

When they arrived at the shore of Weiming Lake, they found a wooden table and two wooden benches and sat down, chatting about trivial matters in life, and Fengjiu soon turned the topic to Ke Weili.

Xiuwei looked melancholy, "Ke Weili is very decent, handsome, and has a good family background, but... hey Fengjiu, I still want to ask you for advice."

"What?" Feng Jiu was also puzzled, she was the first among her girlfriends to get married, but she really didn't understand love, so why did she become the love and marriage consultant that girlfriends take for granted?Aren't they afraid of being led into the ditch by this incomprehensible person like themselves?
"Have you heard about Yang Sao and Bai Wei?" Xiuwei asked seriously.

Feng Jiu is really ignorant, completely ignorant.

Yang Sao and Bai Wei can be said to be the most famous sibling relationship in the Republic of China: Yang Sao and Bai Wei are six years old, both of them are literary youths, especially Bai Wei, who is talented but has a rough life. She and Yang Sao met each other because they failed to pursue a pair of brothers and sisters, and they fell in love, but the woman's fiery love frightened Yang Sao, so he always wanted to escape.

Later, he wrote a famous love letter to Bai Wei, which said: "I love you! Believe me, the woman I love the most is you, remember! But I have to experience a hundred women , and then exhausted and disabled, haggard like a willow plant moved out of a sick room, falling in your arms forever! Just wait, I will definitely come to you in three years!"

Feng Jiu laughed when she heard this, "Is there anyone who believes such a stupid thing?" Bai Wei was called a "fairy" by people in the literary circle at that time. She has an elegant temperament and studied in Japan, so she should not be deceived.

Xiuwei sighed, "What if I don't believe it; not only did I believe it, but I was also infected with the disease."

Shocked, Feng Jiu couldn't catch his breath, choked on the yogurt in his hand, and coughed violently.

Xiuwei patted her on the back skillfully, and said, "Listen to this talented woman's response again—"Dear brother, I must love you, I must be with you, you must respect my innocence, Don't kill my innocent, lovely soul!'”

Ji Lingling shuddered at noon at Fengjiu University. She was most afraid of people talking about their souls, whether they were Buddhist believers or literary youths, "These two are really good enough."

She especially hates male Wenqing, not to mention their nervousness, and they are also very exaggerated, refusing to keep their feet on the ground.

"There are also things around me - a professor surnamed Cao I respect the most at Yanda University, and his wife, a childhood sweetheart, got engaged at the age of 16. He is two years older than his wife, and he never forgets to go to the opposite school every morning. Look at his fiancée Chuncui. Later, they got married as soon as they graduated from university. After marriage, his wife went to Hangzhou to continue her studies. Small paintings of life, less than two years of work, a full six books, we have seen, but really did not lose money for the post office, it is called a love. But when the wife could not bear the love, After dropping out of school and returning to him, he was so good, he fell in love with a female classmate of ours again, his wife had a miscarriage because of this, and the two just got divorced a few days ago..."

Feng Jiu was very angry when he heard it, "Who is this?"

"It's not. So what is love? It's so easy at the beginning, but why is it so difficult to stay together?" Wen Xiuwei's smiling face disappeared, and a trace of confusion and melancholy appeared on her brows.

Feng Jiu didn't know how to persuade her, so he could only put his arms around her shoulders in relief, "Didn't Ke Weili chase you to Sichuan during the Chinese New Year, so how are you two doing now?" Feng Jiu asked knowingly.

Wen Xiuwei was worrying about this, "Hey, he has made me suffer. My parents are so fond of him, and they are still chasing me with letters every week, asking me to agree to be engaged to him immediately, and I don't want to. Thinking about what they will think of me if I really marry in Hong Kong in the future. They have always said since they were young that they want to recruit a son-in-law."

Xiuwei is the only daughter of the Wen family, she has no brothers, and her family business is not small, so it is normal to want to recruit a son-in-law.However, compared with Ke Weili's family, this family property is not enough.

Xiuwei suddenly had a hard face, "Look, Feng Jiu, once people in love end up together, they will end up like the one mentioned earlier, which makes people feel helpless."

...Dancing and dancing every day, Weiwei, who is suddenly acting in a literary tone, makes people feel a little uncomfortable.

In fact, Feng Jiu doubts that Xiuwei will have another day in vain. If there is... then it must be because she is not full.

Feng Jiu crossed his arms, looked at Xiuwei's red, white and white face that had obviously matured in the past two years, tapped his chin and said: "Xiuwei, listen to me, we don't need to worry about it. The world can be grasped. There are too few things to live in, and they all change from time to time, we have to admit this. Bai Letian also wrote such a poem - "Colorful clouds are easy to disperse and glass is crisp", but what is more important is its previous sentence, "Most things are good things Not strong’. Then we will look at the part of a person that is the least likely to change—character. Character is that even if the environment changes and the people you come into contact with change, it will not change. It's the most authentic thing about a person, right? What do you think of Mr. Ke's character?"

Xiuwei said without hesitation: "Very good, a modest gentleman, he rarely speaks, but he does what he says and what he does."

Feng Jiu stretched out his fingers and flicked the apple face in front of him that had been itching since just now, "Wei Wei, after all, we are not ordinary women. We have knowledge, education, family background, and wealth. We are still young. , even if you plan for the worst, it’s just a one-shot and two-shot road. We can afford it.” Xiuwei turned her head and stared blankly at Feng Jiu, who had firm eyes.

"And——" Feng Jiu pinched her elastic face again, she was chubby, and it seemed that the food in the Yanda cafeteria was good, she lowered her voice, "Mr. Ke asked me to bring you a By the way, he is still a 'boy', he believes in Catholicism, and there will be no messy things in the future, so you can rest assured."

Feng Jiu looked at Xiuwei with a smile, and watched with satisfaction that the pretty face in front of her was getting redder and redder, until she held her own face with a low cry, "Hey, he—is he stupid?! This kind of Can the words be conveyed by someone?"

Feng Jiu nodded proudly, "Then take a look! I guess I am a mature and prudent person who is worthy of entrustment. Mr. Ke, have a good eye!"

She provoked Thumb to point at herself, Xiuwei couldn't laugh or cry.

Fengjiu smiled again and said to Xiuwei: "Oscar Wilde once said, 'If you want to get married, get married, if you want to be single, stay single, anyway in the end - you will regret it.'"

Xiuwei laughed loudly, and her voice shook the sky, wishing to startle a row of gulls and herons by the Weiming Lake; Master and students passing by Yan could not help but look at this lovely female student with a smile, her bright smile is really contagious.

Afterwards, they went to the door to find Ke Weili, and the three of them had a good lunch in the cafeteria of Yanda University. Ke Weili said that if he was still stationed in Beiping, he would definitely come to eat more. Xiuwei nodded silently. Immediately with a smile on his face, he looked at Feng Jiu with gratitude.

After dinner, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon. Feng Jiu was sent to the station by Ke Weili and Xiuwei. Seeing that Ning Zheng's car had arrived earlier, Ke Weili and Xiuwei wisely didn't get off the car, but rushed towards Ning Zheng who was sitting in the car. With a smile, he left, leaving the couple to say goodbye.

Ning Zheng, who was dressed in military uniform, got off the car and sent Feng Jiu to the special train. Qiu Sheng was already on the special train, and his luggage had already arrived, including a large box of Mr. Nantian's paintings.

As soon as Feng Jiu got into the car, she sat down on the single sofa by the window, and Ning Zheng also sat down opposite her.Feng Jiu has to go back to school, and he will continue to arrange the next move of the Ning army.

"It may take a while before we can return to Fengtian." Ning Zheng stared at the beautiful face opposite, while sketching her outline reluctantly in his heart.

"It's okay, you are busy with your work." Feng Jiu said with a smile.

... really considerate and thoughtful, not intrusive at all.

Ning Zheng put his hands into his pockets and clenched them into fists.What's the matter? It's been two years since she got married, and she seems to have suddenly become that slippery little slippery girl again who is slick when you're serious with her, and she pretends to be false with you.

She can be a good relative to herself, but it seems that she has lost half of the sincerity between a man and a woman, which is obviously not the case before.

"Don't worry, the photos of the reception will not be published in the newspaper." Ning Zheng suddenly added.

When Feng Jiu heard this, she couldn't help smiling gratefully. At the reception that day, she saw many reporters from major newspapers in the capital and even foreign newspapers "crackling" taking pictures, and she was worried about what to do if she was recognized by her Fengda classmates. up.She had forgotten that her husband had the ability to control the press.

Ning Zheng walked over, pulled Feng Jiu up, hugged him into his arms, and hugged him silently, but his arms were getting tighter and tighter. Feng Jiu felt the uneasiness and melancholy in his heart, and hugged him thinly with his backhand waist.

She touched the wide-face double-hole belt around his waist, and unconsciously picked the holes in the belt with her fingers, and pressed her face against the German-style armed belt on his back—this kind of dress made him look Heroic and extraordinary.

Feng Jiu made up her mind not to put too much affection on Ning Zheng the night before, but it doesn't mean that she won't comfort him when she sees him so sad.

It took a long time for Ning Zheng to whisper again: "Every time I say goodbye to you, I feel so uncomfortable. Do you know why I know you like Kesi fan, but I never give it to you with my own hands?"

Feng Jiu's eyes widened when he heard this, and Fu Zhi's heart suddenly brightened. The big pupils reflected the handsome face of the young man in front of him, and seemed to be filled with the shimmering light of the Four Mile River in early summer, rippling and rippling.

Ning Zheng said word by word: "Whether it's a 'fan' or a 'pear', believe it or not, I will tell you——I don't want to be separated from you in my whole life, I don't want to be separated from you for a moment ..."

Feng Jiu watched him bow his head, held his face and kissed for a long time, until Ning Zheng felt that the sweet fragrance he absorbed from her could support him to survive the next days without her, then said softly He said "Treasure", turned around and got out of the car.

Hong Si didn't follow, he was just called to Tianjin by the old man.

Ning's special train started running "rumbling", and Qiu Sheng discovered something strange: her girl had been sitting quietly on the sofa by the window, with her hands resting on her cheeks, staring at the green scenery outside the window like a continuous picture However, Qiu Sheng felt that it was not known whether these scenery caught the girl's eyes or not.

Have free time but don't read books?This is something that has never happened before.

Ning Zheng returned to the palace that night, and suddenly saw the servant woman carrying a pot of epiphyllum planted in a round flower pot yesterday, and his heart moved. When he sent Feng Jiu away in the afternoon, he had been thinking about it all the time but forgot to ask. "Didn't Third Young Mistress say she would bring a few pots of flowers back to Fengtian?"

The dark and stout servant woman hurriedly bowed to Ning Zheng, and then replied: "Third Young Master, before Third Young Mistress left this morning, I said that these two pots of epiphyllum bloomed in the past few days. It would be nice to move directly back to Fengtian, and the train is safe; but the third young lady couldn't say it, and said..." The maid suddenly stammered.

"What did you say?" Ning Zheng asked, and suddenly felt her heart beating a little faster. Could this be the reason for Feng Jiu's sudden indifference?

"She said she had never seen such a 'stupid' flower, and she didn't want it. I didn't quite understand it." The servant woman scratched her head, wondering that the flower that had been carefully served was so disgusted.However, thinking about the five silver dollars in his pocket, he grinned again, revealing the red teeth and teeth that came in and out, "Young Mistress gave me a bounty and praised me for the well-raised flowers."

Ning Zheng waved her hand and let her go down. He seemed to have vaguely understood something...

Trust may be the hardest thing to obtain between people.

The time and space gap caused by their too little time together is a huge problem between them, but if he wants to tie Feng Jiu by his side, he is really reluctant.

Perhaps, this problem will be truly resolved after the commander-in-chief leads the Ning army back to Fengtian. He has lost his patience.

His wife, reading, painting, appreciating antiques, exercising, meeting friends everywhere, old and young, doing good deeds from time to time... is an authentic "life family" who has become more and more refined.

Leisurely and contented, living a comfortable and fulfilling life, how has he ever had a place in her life?
She doesn't need him at all.

He squeezed the empty palm, which seemed to still have the touch of her greasy face, and couldn't help but tighten it tighter, as if trying to grasp something.

He slowly walked casually in the increasingly empty palace, and he seemed to lose his direction suddenly.

Carved beams and painted buildings are all false.

The sound of the heavy military boots stepping down on the ground seemed more crisp and empty in the night, even though there was a faint fragrance of crabapple all around him, submerging him warmly.
