Miss Mu and the Canary

1933, summer.

The moonlight jumped into the window, and cast the shadow of the flowers in front of the desk onto the manuscript paper, swaying gracefully.Bai Shuwan held the pen, writing and writing on the paper.The tip of the pen rubbed against the manuscript paper, making a rustling sound, and stopped for a while, and replaced it with a lining made of xiangyun yarn, rustling, rustling——it was impossible to write an article, Bai Shuwan finally threw away the pen impatiently, curling her hair for a while, Lie down on the table and stare at the waste manuscript, wriggling like a child.The Xiangyun gauze attached to the soft waist also made a sound with the movement, subtle and difficult to ignore.

When Mu Xing came out of the bathroom, he saw Bai Shuwan twisting on the chair, and couldn't help but laugh.

"Have you written it?"

A shadow was cast over his head, and the steaming fragrance from the shower gel immediately overwhelmed Bai Shuwan.She sighed, leaned back on the chair and looked up at Mu Xing: "No, I don't have any inspiration at all."

Leaning on the back of the chair, while massaging Shu Wan's shoulders, Mu Xing stretched out his left hand to take the manuscript paper on the table, and looked at it carefully.

The stiff shoulders gradually relaxed, Bai Shuwan stretched the shoulders following Mu Xing's massage, and suddenly noticed a strand of long hair hanging beside her face.

Black and shiny, slightly curly at the end, belongs to Ah Xuan's long hair.

It turns out that Ah Xuan's hair is already so long...

She unconsciously turned her head slightly and looked at Mu Xing.

It has been a year since Mu Xing passed the entrance examination of Union Medical College in July last year and officially enrolled.

Mu Xing has always planned to go back to school, Bai Shuwan is naturally aware of it, and has always considered it in his heart.It just so happened that the second elder brother returned to Muyuan on vacation in January last year, and Mu Xing actively asked the second elder brother about the medical school. Bai Shuwan took the opportunity to express to Mu Xing that he was willing to support her to continue her studies.

"Then what should you do about your work?" Mu Xing still had concerns, "You have just become familiar with the affairs of the bookstore. If you go to Beiping with me, I'm afraid you won't be able to adapt."

Bai Shuwan said it was okay, and told Mu Xing that Song Youcheng also planned to go north.It turned out that the Song family still couldn't accept Song Youcheng's wife, and they suppressed and excluded her at work everywhere. Although the situation has improved slightly recently, it is not a long-term plan after all.

"If Mr. Song also moves to Beiping, and you go to school, I will still work in Mr. Song's bookstore. If not, I can always have other things to do. Why waste the big by making small things."

"What's more, the world is so big, I would like to take a look."

At this point, Mu Xing began to prepare for the exam.

Considering the national conditions and actual needs, Peking Union Medical College is an eight-year college, with three years of pre-medicine and five years of headquarters.The first three years of pre-medicine are for students to prepare basic medical theoretical knowledge and logical mind.Mu Xingben already has a bachelor's degree, so after the ordinary preparatory examination, she also took an additional formal entrance examination. In the end, like Mu Yun, she was exempted from the three-year preparatory study with excellent results and directly entered the headquarters to study Ph.D.

The curriculum design and teaching style of Union Medical College are similar to Mu Xing’s undergraduate alma mater, and she has a good foundation. Therefore, in the first year of study, compared with other students who need to adapt, her pressure is not very high Heavy.

Mu Xing has never been a person who insists on self-sufficiency, hard work is hard work, and she will never force herself to study when she can relax reasonably.What's more, she is not studying alone like other students. She has a lover by her side, so her mentality is naturally very different.

Therefore, as soon as she entered school, she submitted a written application and declined the dormitory provided by the school. Instead, she bought an apartment not far from the school.Every day when her classmates go in and out of the dormitory together, she goes home alone—and occasionally invites her second brother, who is alone, to visit her home together.

There are only a handful of students who live alone in the entire medical school, and Mu Xing entered the school across grades, so it is inevitable that there will be some gossip.But with Dr. Mu's affection, the school will not make things difficult for her. Although the other students were a little talkative at first, but after seeing Mu Xing's excellent grades, he was not as delicate as he imagined, and gradually became friends with her. up.

As for Bai Shuwan, when Mu Xing was preparing for the exam, Song Youcheng had already moved his family to Beiping.When the bookstore opened again, Bai Shuwan would commute to and from get off work as usual, writing some articles for publication every month.Occasionally, when I was free, I could meet Fei Hua in Beiping for dinner and shopping, which was much more pleasant than when I was in Wenjiang—if Fei Hua hadn't gone on a business trip with Principal Zhang after the Chinese New Year.

The medical school has two days off every weekend. The school occasionally organizes some outings, or holds small gatherings at the professor's home, and Mu Xing will take Shu Wan to attend.But most of the time, the two of them are still living in a world of two. In the past year or so, the two of them have traveled more than half of the city of Beijing.

Unknowingly, both of them gradually changed.

Bai Shuwan began to receive some letters from readers, and was occasionally invited to some receptions and dinners in the publishing industry, but now, she no longer sat behind the crowd as a foil, but as a guest and protagonist.She would still light up the lights on the balcony at night, waiting for Ah Xuan to come home, but what accompanied her was no longer anxiety, but tomorrow's work plan, and the fullest love and stability.

And Ah Xuan...

The long hair that was not completely dry left wet marks between the fingers. Looking up, the face in front of him has not changed substantially. It is still handsome and sharp, but there is no manly aura anymore.

Mu Xing had finished reading the manuscript, and when he looked down at Shu Wan, he couldn't help laughing and said, "I've been reading it day and night, can't I get enough of it?"

Bai Shuwan straightened her waist, stretched out her hand to wrap around Mu Xing's neck, Mu Xing bent down slightly understandingly, and the two exchanged a long kiss.

Still breathing, Bai Shuwan's hand moved downstream, and with a flick of her fingertips, it hooked off the sling on Mu Xing's shoulder.The petticoat slipped a little, and the thin lace revealed a reddish color underneath, and the tip of the tongue slipped gently...

Moans slipped from his lips, Mu Xing put one arm around Bai Shuwan, and said in a low voice, "...you don't want to finish your manuscript?"

Glancing at the hands on his chest that were unbuttoning the cheongsam, Bai Shuwan smiled lightly: "Ask yourself first, can you give me some advice..."

The manuscript paper caught between her fingertips had drifted to nowhere, and the footsteps were chaotic and then stopped. Bai Shuwan's waist and limbs went limp, and she lay down on the table.The neat pile of books collapsed in all directions, the pen rolled down, and the ink bottle was pushed out bit by bit, making a toothache sound, someone's arm swept it away, and finally fell to the ground with a bang

For a moment, the whole room was only the sound of Xiangyun yarn rubbing: rustling, rustling, rustling...

It was late at night when the two of them finally lay down on the bed properly.

Mu Xing will have an experiment tomorrow morning, and will have a week off in the afternoon.The two had previously planned to take a car to a small town in the countryside to attend the township meeting in the afternoon and enjoy the exotic customs.After washing up, Bai Shuwan urged Mu Xing to sleep quickly.

"Beauty is in my arms, if I can fall asleep, there is no problem." Mu Xing said with a smile.

Bai Shuwan reached out to turn off the wall lamp, and lay down next to Mu Xing: "According to what you said, we will never have to sleep again."

"I haven't seen you in a while, I'm good at boasting." Mu Xing said.

After kissing Mu Xing in the dark, Shu Wan said: "So I'll praise you by the way, go to sleep."

Putting his arms around Bai Shuwan, Mu Xing said, "Good night, Wan'er."

"Good night, Ah Xuan."

In the early morning of the next day, Mu Xing went to school to do experiments, and Bai Shuwan checked the luggage he packed yesterday, and then started writing again.I wrote until the afternoon, guessing that Mu Xing would be back soon, Bai Shuwan put away the manuscript and was about to call for a taxi, when the doorbell suddenly rang.

"Didn't you bring the key?" Bai Shuwan hurriedly went to open the door, "Why are you in such a hurry...ah!"

Caught off guard by the person outside the door, Bai Shuwan screamed in horror. She wanted to push the person away, but what she touched was a strange bulge, as if...a pregnant woman's belly.

Bai Shuwan was stunned for a moment, and the woman half hanging on her body had already murmured: "...Yes, I..."

"Fei, Feihua?!"

Mu Xing almost slipped when he entered the house.

However, before she could stand still, the scene she saw next almost scared her out of her wits: "What's going on?!" She rushed to the sofa in a few steps, "This, this is Fei Hua?"

Lying on the sofa, Fei Hua's belly was high, her pale face was red and swollen, she was speechless, and people couldn't bear to look directly at her.

Bai Shuwan was already sweating profusely, and when she saw Mu Xing, she said incoherently: "Is she going to give birth? What should I do? I finally moved her to the sofa. I was going to call but she didn't. She cried out in pain, and I..."

Mu Xing hurriedly said: "Don't worry, don't worry, I'll take a look." Together with Shu Wan, he straightened Fei Hua on the sofa, and Mu Xing lifted Fei Hua's skirt and checked it for her.

"The cervix is ​​almost dilated. Fortunately, the bleeding is not much, and the situation is still normal." Mu Xing said quickly, "It's too late to go to the doctor now. Tonight, take out the operating box in my study, and put some hot water on it." Water and towels."

Bai Shuwan hurriedly went to do it.

"Fei Hua, Fei Hua, can you hear me, right? Stay awake, do you feel contractions? Relax, okay, relax, breathe through your chest, don't be too nervous..." Mu Xing cleaned Fei Hua's body Unbuttoning the dirty clothes, she encouraged her, "The cervix is ​​almost there, you push it slowly, don't be afraid..."

Falling back on the sofa, Fei Hua breathed through her chest cavity according to Mu Xing's words, the pain exploded centered around the cockroach, as if all the muscles in her body were torn apart, but she firmly grasped the sofa cover under her body, Always silent.

Finally, her body and consciousness fell into a deep ocean together. While floating aimlessly, she vaguely heard the cry of the baby.

Fei Hua tried hard to open her eyes, but the appalling redness and swelling on her cheeks blocked her movement. It was sweat or tears that slid down the corners of her mouth, only causing piercing pain.

"...it's a girl..."

"...What's going on here, I just haven't seen you for half a year..."

"Fei Hua, Fei Hua?"

The touch of a hot towel fell on her cheek, gently wiped away the stinging pain at the corner of her mouth, grasping the remaining consciousness, she finally said what was in her heart: "...Li Yining..."
