Spring Again

Chapter 94

The evening breeze is scorching, and the coolness is deep in the bones. The world that has been washed is full of water. There are small potholes on the uneven ground, the branches of the trees are moist, and the windowsills are also wet.

Before going back, Jiang Xu sent another WeChat message to Ye Xiyan, asking if he had anything to bring, so he could buy it on the road.

Ye Xiyan replied “No” in seconds, urging to go back earlier, to be more careful, to guard against the surrounding area, and to bring an umbrella. Although it is sunny this day, it seems that it should still rain. The sudden drop of temperature will not rise again for a while, and it is very likely that it will remain so cold.

Looking at the time, Jiang Xu packed up at will, picked up two packs of materials, and left the office after finishing the final work. She was not in the mood to care about the insignificant people, either Zhang Xianming or Ji Cunyu, too lazy to waste time, and didn’t even want to split her mind.

It’s not to face the patient, so there is no need to repay grievances with virtue.

In fact, Ji Cunyu was in the inpatient department of the Second Hospital. Zhang Xianming had always arranged and taken care of him who was sent here yesterday.

Zhang Xianming was very attentive to this nominal adopted son, quite unusual, and always so. Even when Ji Yunfu was alive, he tried his best to show a balanced attitude, but he was more considerate when facing Ji Cunyu, not so much. Falsehood, whether it is reprimand, education, or concern for the child, is more sincere.

I don’t know if it is impossible to explain that Jiang Xu is the daughter of a rival in love, or if there is another reason, in short, there is eccentricity.

It’s even more obvious now, it’s too boundless.

Fortunately, Jiang Xu didn’t care much about this since he was a child, and he didn’t have a deep relationship with the father and son. If Ji Yunfu weren’t caught in the middle, he would have broken up long ago, let alone Zhang Xianming had done so many dirty things in the past six months.

She has doubts about the father and son, and is still investigating certain connections.

It was getting darker and earlier, and when I walked through the corridor, I glanced out of the French windows. The distance was gray and without the afterglow of the setting sun. Everything was covered with a layer of hazy color, and the outline seemed blurred.

At this time, there were many people going upstairs and downstairs, including medical staff, patients and their families, and the elevator doors were surrounded by several circles.

Jiang Xu didn’t come forward to squeeze, stand a little behind, and wait for the people in front to go first.

It just so happened that within a few minutes, an acquaintance arrived.

Meng Wendong.

In the past two days, Meng Wendong’s physical condition is not very good. He is getting older, and he is sore here and there from time to time. It is not a major problem. It is no problem to go to the hospital for checkups repeatedly. She came with a friend today. After shopping, she stopped by here to have a look. Her blood pressure was on the high side and she was a little uncomfortable.

The number of other doctors in the department that the old man hung up, I don’t know where Jiang Xu is still there.

Jiang Xu turned his head inadvertently and saw Meng Wendong, calling someone first.

Meng Wendong was a little surprised. He was taken aback for a while before he answered, “Doctor Jiang, just got off work?”

“Yes,” Jiang Xurou replied, “Auntie, why are you here? Is it uncomfortable somewhere?”

“No, just came here to take a blood pressure measurement, just passing by here.” Meng Wendong replied, not telling the truth completely. The old people always report good news but not worry, fearing that the juniors are worried, and Jiang Xu is Ye Xiyan’s friend. She is afraid that Jiang Xu will turn around and talk to Ye Xiyan for fear that Ye Xiyan will worry about it.

He communicated with various patients all day long, but Jiang Xu didn’t understand, so he didn’t know the symptoms, and only seemed to inadvertently ask about the measured blood pressure and other data.

Meng Wendong said at ease, he didn’t think there was anything in it.

Jiang Xu nodded and tapped a few words sideways, knowing roughly how to lower blood pressure, taking medicine, controlling diet and exercise, and some tips. The great doctor is very good at talking now, his voice is soft and clear, every word is clear, patience, and soft-spoken.

Meng Wendong quite eats this set, and his heart is softened.

A few days ago, she was still beating on her daughter’s friendship boundary, preventing Ye Xiyan from getting in touch with Jiang Xu too deeply. Right now, she feels as if she thinks of people too badly, which is embarrassing.

A friend in the same group asked Jiang Xu, and Meng Wendong introduced: “This is Dr. Jiang Xujiang, a friend of the past.”

The occasional meeting was pleasant and harmonious, and when he got into the elevator, Meng Wendong also asked Ye Xiyan.

Jiang Xu was frank and generous, admitting to have seen it several times.

This is not a lie, the two see each other every night, indeed several times in a few days.

Meng Wendong did not hear the clues, no longer entangled with her daughter how to make friends, and said: “What has Dr. Jiang been up to lately?”

Jiang Xu told the truth, but skipped Ye Xiyan.

A short conversation closed the relationship. In the end, Meng Wendong still thought about taking Jiang Xu on the way. Jiang Xu refused to change his face, and went to the street to take a taxi.

How dare you let Meng Wendong send it to the apartment and hit him head-on.

On the way back, Jiang Xu informed Ye Xiyan about this on WeChat and told the truth.

Ye Xiyan was completely unclear, and finally called Meng Wendong to ask. This person is clever, he wouldn’t directly ask if Meng Wendong went to the hospital, he just cared as usual, hesitated to his mother, and cared about her father by the way.

Meng Wendong was happily coaxed, not timidly comfortable.

When Jiang Xu walked in, the call had already been hung up. She changed shoes in the hallway, and just bent over slightly when she heard the people in the living room say: “My mother asked you again.”

“What?” Jiang Xu looked up.

“Ask you when you are free,” Ye Xiyan said, “I want to have another meal together.”

Jiang Xu smiled, “Did you just talk about it?”

Ye Xiyan: “Yes.”

“Someday, go there when you have time.”

“When?”

“After your game is over.”

“That’s still early, it will take a while.”

After changing the shoes, Jiang Xu put all the materials on the table, then washed his hands and other things, helped with the dishes, and said: “It’s not in a hurry now, it’s coming, wait until you come back from Japan.”

Ye Xiyan replied: “You can go if I don’t come back, they will be fine, they all welcome you.”

“Auntie said?” Jiang Xu asked, bending his head, blinking.

Ye Xiyan was quite able to talk, “That’s almost what it meant.”

“What’s the original story?” Jiang Xu was funny.

Ye Xiyan reiterated frankly: “You can bring Doctor Jiang over to sit down when you have time, just like Ayan and the others, don’t be stuck.”

Jiang Xu said, “That’s a long way off.”

“It’s not bad,” Ye Xiyan defended, “I often have time. My parents know that, isn’t this just welcoming you.”

Someone has a sharp mouth, and after coaxing one after another, he opens his mouth nicely without taking a break.

Jiang Xu raised his lips and couldn’t help but enjoy himself.

I have to move things to the West End later, and go by early to eat early.

The two seized the time, brought food to the table and ate, Ma Lier drove to the old house on the north section of Tianhe Road after finishing packing.

The West District is not as prosperous as the North District. The development in the past nine years is even better. Today, it is a lot worse. The night is relatively sluggish. Many streets are turned off early, and the streets are dark everywhere. Only a few places are more lively.

The old house is also a villa with a European style. It is located at the end of the northern section of Tianhe Road, behind a wide park, and it takes ten minutes to drive around.

The houses nearby have a certain sense of age. Most of the three-story, four-story, or even two-story, single-family houses, with large green areas, and trees everywhere.

Jiang Xu drove forward slowly, introducing Ye Xiyan one by one.

The memories left to her here are not beautiful, but she has witnessed many things, which are meaningful to some extent.

Returning here again, Jiang Xu didn’t feel sad, there was nothing at all, and he spoke calmly. The bookstore on the corner of the street, the small shop at the crossroads, the newsstand on the hillside… When she was a child, she liked to be alone in the park. She would go to the corner to buy some messy books for children, and then quietly threw them away after reading them, or gave them to other people.

At that time, Jiang Dancheng would still take care of this daughter, barely fulfilling the responsibilities of being a father, and would teach her, unlike afterwards, nothing else.

Doctor Jiang rarely speaks so much in the past. Ye Xiyan asked, “Are you happy to live here?”

“Happy and free.” Jiang Xu said frankly, “but it has nothing to do with them, not because of this.”

Ye Xiyan mumbled, “Because of what?”

Jiang Xu said: “This place is more humane, better than other places.”

Ye Xiyan smiled. He didn’t expect it to be like this. After all, the big doctor looked like a refined temperament. He was usually cold and cold, and had nothing to do with these three words.

The old house is located next to the artificial river, and the security around it is pretty good. After so many years, there are still security teams patrolling at night. The house doesn’t use a new type of code lock, it is still a spring-loaded door lock, which requires a key to open.

Jiang Xu walked forward, opened the door, and turned on the lights.

The house is large in size, but the upstairs and downstairs are empty, much shaky than it looked at from afar, and it doesn’t look like a mansion.

Originally, many solid wood furniture were placed here, but Ji Yunfu moved out after his death, leaving only the necessary things.

The things I want to take tonight are all upstairs, and Jiang Xu’s previous room was full of miscellaneous gadgets.

Due to the weather, the house is slightly cold and humid.

Jiang Xu went up first, and said softly as he walked, “Don’t be afraid, it’s nothing, I’ll go back soon.”

Ye Xi was puzzled, and uttered, “What are you afraid of?”

What did it mean to react as soon as the words were spoken, and then shut up again.

It was here that Ji Yunfu passed away, so he followed in with another timid person. He must have been shocked as soon as he walked in, and Ye Xiyan had a big heart, and he didn’t even think about that. She didn’t believe that, and didn’t think there was anything wrong with the house. Instead, she felt that the style of construction was good, and it was more stylish than the house where the Ye family lived. Presumably the former couple Ji Yunfu and Jiang Dancheng were very rich at that time. It’s no wonder that later on, they would rather drag on each other’s death than divorce, because the interests are too much.

Jiang Xu’s room is on the far east side of the second floor, near the back garden.

Because it is an old house, I only lived in it when I was young. The east-most room is decorated in the style of children’s room, which is very warm.

Ye Xiyan followed in, and looked around, feeling very strange.

This person doesn’t talk too much, doesn’t ask random questions, and deliberately talks to the group of public welfare teams, and talks about some things.

“Sister He has published the book, did she tell you?” Ye Xiyan asked, taking a leisurely look at the window.

“I know,” Jiang Xu said, “Tell me about it, and I will send a sample book later.”

Sister He’s book is the travel note that promised to donate the manuscript fee to Dayan Town Central School.

The two of them tidied up slowly and packed everything in their bags.

What I have to take away are some commemorative items, yellowed albums, records, collection books… and some small ornaments. Needless to say, Ye Xiyan also knew that Ji Yunfu might have bought them before, otherwise Jiang Xu would not come back to get them.

As soon as it was finished, Jiang Xu suddenly said, “In the last few days, she didn’t let anyone live here.”

Ye Xiyan raised his eyes, “You are all with her?”

“Not really,” Jiang Xu said, “I only accompany her for three days. On the fourth day, she went to the hospital in a hurry. When she hurried back at night, she had already left.”

Ye Xiyan listened.

Jiang Xu said, “There was only a caregiver here, and we were not there.”

Death always comes without warning, and that day is obviously fine, but after a period of time away, when he comes back, he will be separated forever, and he can’t even see the last side.

The mother and daughter are not deeply emotional, but they are both like that, and they are not enemies that hate each other. This is also a pity in the end.

Ye Xiyan couldn’t say anything to comfort him, so he only touched the back of Jiang Xu’s hand.

Jiang Xu was a little silent, looking down at the pile of debris on the table, for a long time, and said: “She asked me to keep this here as a thought.”

Ye Xiyan whispered, “Yeah.”

“I promised.” Jiang Xu said.

“It’s good to keep it, just treat it as an investment.” Ye Xiyan would think, suffocating such a sentence.

Jiang Xu continued to pretend, “she said the same.”

Ye Xiyan paused, then immediately changed the subject and asked, “Is there anything else I want to take?”

“Nothing.” Jiang Xu said. As soon as he raised his head and saw that there was a picture frame on the opposite table, he pointed to, “There is that one.”

In the frame is a picture of Jiang Xu who is just over one year old, a white and tender child with big eyes.

Ye Xiyan walked over to take it a few steps, and looked at it, “It’s good.”

Jiang Xu stretched out his hand and then took a look at himself.

Ye Xiyan said again: “It’s cute and watery, and it’s fleshy.”

“Not all children are like this,” Jiang Xu said. “You were too when you were young.”

“I’m not so fat.” Ye Xiyan said immediately.

This person can really open his eyes and talk nonsense. Jiang Xu went back to Ye’s house and saw the photos of her when she was a child. She was obviously much fatter and looked at a pretty sturdy girl. Wearing small bibs, she can get out of the circle and the little girl. belly.

Jiang Xu didn’t open her, put the photo frame in her bag, “Yes, it’s not so fat.”

Ye Xiyan walked around the room to see if there were any leftover photos or other things.

When Jiang Xu was a child, the bed that Jiang Xu slept on was a wooden bed with edges, which was a bit similar to the current crib style, but there were differences. There is only a small cabinet beside the bed, which is regarded as a bedside table, and there is a “wood window” embedded in the wall above the bedside table.

Feeling curious, Ye Xiyan asked, “What is this?”

“The safe, my mother ordered it for me.” Jiang Xu said nonchalantly.

Ye Xiyan squatted down and opened the “wood window”. There was actually a safe inside, the kind with a turntable code lock. She was a little curious, “What is it for?”

“Put important things,” Jiang Xu said, paused for a moment, and explained, “When I was young, I thought that some gadgets were very important, and they were all hidden inside.”

Ye Xiyan knocked, “Is there something in it?”

“No.” Jiang Xu said, “I have opened it and checked it last time when I came back. It’s empty.”

Ye Xiyan asked, “Can you open it?”

Jiang Xu reported a bunch of numbers, searched around based on his memory, found a suitable key and threw it to her.

This kind of turntable safe requires a password and a key to open.

Ye Xiyan caught the key, turned the turntable, and tried.

Jiang Xu didn’t care about her, took out the phone to check the time, and then zipped up the backpack, ready to leave.

Ye Xiyan saw everything new and thought about it.

Maybe it was not right or something went wrong. I tried to unlock the lock for the first time, but it didn’t open. Thinking she made a mistake, she tried again, and again, the result was still the same.

Looking back at Jiang Xu, she asked the password again and confirmed it again.

Jiang Xu didn’t care too much and reported it again.

Ye Xiyan tried again, but still did not open.

The password is wrong, not this.

Jiang Xu didn’t remember that he had changed the password of the safe. It was the string of numbers when he opened it last time. She also went over and tried it herself.

“Did it change?” Ye Xiyan asked.

“No,” Jiang Xu said affirmatively, “The password has never been changed, only my mother and I know it, I haven’t changed it, no…”

Halfway through the conversation, I suddenly reacted.

I didn’t change it myself, it could only be another person.

There will be no one else except Ji Yunfu.

Jiang Xu was stunned, and he didn’t move. After a while, he came back to his senses slowly.

After thinking for a moment, as if thinking of something, she changed the string of numbers to try, a string of numbers with special meaning.

This time it was opened all at once.

Open the safe, it is not empty, there are other things, but it is not Jiang Xu’s plaything when he was a child, but a file stored here.

Signed and sealed a complete, extremely formal document.
