Quick Wear: Passerby A's Daily Life of Eating Watermelons

Seeing that Chen Xin was fine, Jiang Yue called the driver to take the master home. The store was closed for a day today, so they treated it as a holiday. Jiang Yue chatted with Chen Xin for a while. If it weren't for the preconceived notions and some inconsistencies, Jiang Yue would not have noticed that someone had been replaced. However, this inconsistency was caused by the short time. Even Jiang Yue would not have noticed it in a day or two.

It can't be said that Chen Xin's current way of speaking is exactly the same as the original Chen Xin, but it's almost the same. Even the small pauses are similar. Jiang Yue even feels that they are the same person. After thinking about it for a long time without any clue, Jiang Yue didn't want to care about it anymore. After dinner at Chen's house, Jiang Yue took Aunt Fang home.

After arriving home, Jiang Yue returned to the study and continued studying. Aunt Fang came in and added some water and snacks for Jiang Yue. After two years of getting along, she also got to know Jiang Yue's little habits. After reading the last few pages of the book in front of her, Jiang Yue stood up and stretched out, doing a set of fitness exercises taught by her master. She looked at the time and it was already ten o'clock in the evening. She turned off the light in the study and went back to her room to sleep. When Aunt Fang saw Jiang Yue going back to her room to sleep, she turned off the light in the living room and went back to her room.

This continued for another three years. Today was the day when Jiang Yue officially started seeing patients. The master looked at Jiang Yue and said with satisfaction: "From today on, you are the doctor of Jishi Pharmacy."

Master Jiang Yue will not come here after today. After five years, his energy and spirit are not as good as before. Last year, it was basically Jiang Yue who treated the patients, and Master Jiang Yue was by his side giving guidance. Now he has officially handed over the task to Jiang Yue.

After that, he reminded Jiang Yue that he should continue to study, as there is no end to learning medicine. Jiang Yue respectfully said, "I understand. I have said everything that needs to be said," and then the master went home.

Now Jiang Yue was the only one left in the store. She felt a little empty in her heart without her master. She was the only one in the empty store and there was usually no one to talk to her master. Jiang Yue turned around a few times and suddenly shook her head and smiled. This day would come sooner or later, right?

Jiang Yue adjusted her mood and took out the medical prescription records sent to her by her senior brothers and started to read them. Not many people came to see the doctor throughout the day, and they closed the shop and went home when the time came.

After Jiang Yue got home, she went back to the study after dinner. If everything develops normally according to history, the Anti-Japanese War will break out next year. Jiang Yue has not been doing nothing in the past few years. She has invested in the Chen family's grain business and stockpiled a lot of grain and medicine in the future anti-Japanese base over the years. She plans to donate them all when the time is right. She also prepared several safe houses in Shanghai so that she will have a place to hide if the situation goes wrong.

During the past three years, Jiang Yue also learned some simple debridement and suturing from a field nurse. She knew that difficult operations would not be easy to perform, but based on Jiang Yue's observation, Chen Xin should have joined our party. There were many times when the wounded she brought were unable to go to the hospital and Jiang Yue secretly treated them.

Chen Xin is still persuading the Chen couple to immigrate to Hong Kong. As the situation has gradually deteriorated recently, their attitude has begun to loosen recently, and they want to go to Hong Kong with the whole family. Unfortunately, Chen Xin wants to do something for our party. The Chen family's business is getting bigger and bigger. If it is preserved, they can do a lot of things, so Chen Xin does not want to leave.

The Chen couple also tried to find Jiang Yue to persuade Chen Xin, but they found that Jiang Yue didn't want to go either. She wanted to send her master and Aunt Fang's family away and stay here too. Aunt Chen was so angry that she fell ill. What were they going to do there if the two children didn't leave?

Then Chen Xin kept persuading the Chen couple. Seeing that the situation had deteriorated too much, the Chen couple finally couldn't resist Chen Xin's pleading and agreed. Jiang Yue then persuaded the master and Aunt Fang's family. The master and Aunt Fang's family had agreed, but Aunt Fang didn't want to leave and wanted to follow Jiang Yue. Jiang Yue was also persuading Aunt Fang, but unfortunately Aunt Fang was determined to stay and take care of them, so they had to give up. The New Year was coming soon, and the boat tickets had been booked and they would leave after the New Year.

As the days passed, the festive atmosphere in Shanghai became stronger and stronger. People were still immersed in the joy of the New Year, not knowing that the war was about to come. Today was New Year's Eve, and it was also the last dinner of the Chen family. After the New Year, they left under the pretext of going home to worship their ancestors. The whole family sat at the same table. Although it was New Year's Eve, there was not much expression on everyone's faces.

After the family finished dinner, they started packing. Aunt Chen sat on the sofa, holding Jiang Yue and Chen Xin's hands and said, "Are you two really not coming with us?"

Chen Xin, who was becoming more and more capable, patted her mother's hand and said, "Don't worry, mother. I've already inquired about it. Both Swire and Jardine Matheson Shipping Company have cruise ships coming to Hong Kong. When the time comes, Xiaoyue and I will visit you every year. You can just think of Xiaoyue and I as going to school."

"How can it be the same? Hey..., promise your mother that you will protect yourself, okay?"

The two of them chatted with Chen's mother for a while. Chen's father asked Chen's mother to check the luggage. Then Chen's father called Chen Xin and Jiang Yue into the study, explained some things to Chen Xin, and took Chen Xin and Jiang Yue to the basement to open a hidden secret room. There was a safe house in the room, which contained weapons, food, medicine and other survival supplies. He also told them that there were some other places, which were much smaller than this one, but could also be used for shelter in critical moments.

After that, he looked at Chen Xin and Jiang Yue and said, "I don't care what you want to do, but you must ensure your own safety. If things are impossible, withdraw in time. If even one of you two gets into trouble, what will we old people do?"

Chen Xin just said that what she did was not dangerous, but before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Chen's father waving his hand: "Your mother is ignorant and listens to your nonsense. Do you think I, Chen Tianxiang, am so easy to fool?"

Father Chen took a breath and said, "I only have one request. As long as you are safe and sound, can you agree to it?"

The two of them nodded quickly, and Father Chen didn't say much. Now that things had come to this, he just wanted to seek psychological comfort. After they left the secret room, they had almost packed up their things.

The next morning, the group packed their bags and headed straight to the dock. When they arrived at the dock, the master's family and Aunt Fang's daughter had already arrived. As for the two elderly people from Aunt Fang's mother-in-law's family, they chose to stay. In their words, they were about to be buried anyway, so why bother?

The weather today was grey and the cold wind in the early morning was merciless, scraping at my face like a knife. Father Chen said, "Let's stop here. Don't send me off."

Reaching out and taking the suitcase from Chen Xin, he said, "Be careful on your way back, stay safe, remember to write to us, and take care of yourself after we leave."

Mother Chen silently shed tears and held their hands tightly, as if holding on tightly would keep them together. The cruise ship's whistle sounded, and Jiang Yue wanted to say something but didn't know what to say. The master patted Jiang Yue's shoulder and hesitated to speak. In the end, she just said, "Take care."

When the sun rose in the early morning, Jiang Yue and Chen Xin looked at their family members leaving. When they were about to board the boat, Chen's mother and father looked back, and this glance seemed to be a farewell forever.
