Chapter 107 Daytime turmoil, nighttime peace of mind
I. Seeing this during the day made my heart ache.
During the day, the local clinic is always bustling with activity, as neighbors come and go in an endless stream to seek medical advice and get medicine.
Everyone in the clinic has their own duties, and they are busy all day long, constantly managing all sorts of complicated and trivial matters related to seeing patients and practicing medicine.
Murong Fangxiang ran around tirelessly, taking care of everything from preparing medicinal herbs and handling paperwork to verifying accounts.
She would often walk up to the consultation table, bend down and quietly discuss various matters of the clinic with Chen Shanhe, who was sitting and seeing patients.
Having worked together for a long time, the two had developed a tacit understanding that was unmatched by others.
Often, just a glance is enough to instantly understand each other's thoughts, and their conversations are familiar and natural.
They discussed matters side by side with a relaxed and intimate demeanor, their every move revealing an unspoken understanding and harmony.
Su Wanjing carried a tray containing tea sets and medicine bowls in both hands, quietly and slowly moving through the hall.
In the brief moments when she looked up, she would inadvertently stumble upon the two of them chatting idly, keeping each other company in perfect harmony.
His steps faltered slightly, and his gaze, which had been fixed on the two figures, quickly looked away.
The fingertips holding the tray unconsciously clenched slowly, and a strange, inexplicable sour feeling welled up in my heart.
She quickly lowered her eyes, composed herself, and silently continued with her work, not daring to look up again.
I was afraid that if I looked at it for even a second, the bitterness in my heart would become even more intense and I wouldn't be able to hide it anymore.
Throughout the day, such intimate and tacit scenes repeatedly appeared before her eyes, etching themselves into Su Wanjing's heart time and again.
Her reason was crystal clear; she knew that the two were simply close friends, like siblings.
They maintained a completely clean and honest relationship, and their words and actions were always within the bounds of propriety. They never overstepped any boundaries or went astray.
But a young girl's delicate emotions are never under the control of reason.
That faint hint of jealousy and bitterness spread uncontrollably, lingering in my heart for a long time.
This caused her to feel secretly conflicted and conflicted all day long, with her emotions fluctuating wildly and making it difficult for her to find peace and tranquility.
As evidenced by the poem
Seeing each other during the day brings me heartache.
A ripple of light and shadow stirred in his eyes.
They clearly respected each other's boundaries.
My thoughts are secretly troubled.
II. Returning to the courtyard at night, both are at peace.
As the sun sets and its rays fall on the streets, the clinic finishes treating its last patient, who then thanks them and slowly leaves.
The once bustling clinic gradually quieted down as everyone tidied themselves up and dispersed to rest.
The tedious and mundane tasks of seeing patients and running around during the day have finally come to an end.
After tidying up his medical equipment, Chen Shanhe and Su Wanjing walked side by side and slowly left the clinic.
As the soft twilight enveloped them, the two strolled slowly along the quiet streets and alleys, gradually making their way back to their usual small courtyard house made of blue bricks.
We walked in silence, our steps unhurried, shedding the fatigue and distractions of the day's busyness.
He pushed open the courtyard gate, stepped into the courtyard, and then gently closed the gate.
A wooden door completely shut out the hustle and bustle of the outside world, and also cut off the lively disputes in the clinic during the day.
The courtyard instantly shed all its noise, becoming quiet and peaceful, undisturbed by anything else.
With no one around to look at you, you no longer need to worry about social interactions or boundaries in public.
Only the courtyard remained peaceful, the evening breeze gentle, and the two of them stayed together day and night, quietly keeping each other company.
The evening breeze gently swept through the branches and plants in the courtyard, making a soft rustling sound, and the deep night gently spread over the eaves.
The courtyard was quiet and peaceful, and the tranquil atmosphere of everyday life gently enveloped the hearts of the two people.
The glaring scenes in the clinic during the day, and the chaotic and tangled thoughts in my heart, were all kept outside the courtyard gate.
The tense and anxious waves in my heart gradually subsided.
Su Wan stood quietly in the center of the courtyard, looking up at the deep twilight sky.
The tension that had been building up all day was finally starting to ease and relax.
She no longer needed to deliberately suppress her emotions, nor did she need to feign calmness and indifference to hide the bitterness in her heart.
Having shed all restraint and forbearance, I finally calmed down and found a moment of inner peace.
As evidenced by the poem
As dusk fell, I returned to my old courtyard after a busy day.
The courtyard gate is locked deep to keep out the dust and noise.
The noise fades away, and people are at peace.
The gentle twilight and the moonlight coexist.
Third, possessing gentleness and understanding one's true nature.
As night deepened, darkness completely enveloped the entire courtyard made of blue bricks.
A warm yellow light was lit inside the room, its soft and gentle glow slowly spreading and gently filling every corner, dispelling the chill of the night.
Chen Shanhe sat quietly by the lamp, and when he looked up, he saw Su Wanjing lost in thought, her brows and eyes concealing unresolved worries.
He immediately softened his expression, losing the composure and seriousness he displayed when practicing medicine, and his eyes and brows instantly became gentle and warm.
He slowly rose and stepped forward, personally handing over a cup of freshly brewed warm tea.
Looking up into her eyes, I saw a gentle warmth that she never showed to outsiders, pure and sincere.
He slowed his speech, his voice warm and deep, as he chatted softly with her about trivial everyday matters.
Every word and action is gentle and patient, every move is meticulous and considerate, and every detail is thoughtful and appropriate.
When he had nothing to do, he would quietly stay by her side, without making a fuss or bothering her.
Leaving aside all the worldly troubles, my eyes and heart are only focused on the one person in front of me.
He was perceptive and perceptive, always able to detect the ebb and flow of Su Wanjing's emotions immediately.
He always considers her feelings and is considerate of her emotions, and never lets her be sad alone.
He always maintained a polite and aloof demeanor towards outsiders, appearing cool and upright.
Only in front of Su Wanjing would he let down all his guard and restraint, giving her all his tenderness, patience, and unique favoritism.
The tenderness that is restrained and controlled in front of others during the day is fully revealed without reservation in this quiet and deserted courtyard.
He was single-minded and focused, and from beginning to end, his eyes and heart could only hold Su Wanjing.
These tender details of spending every day together were genuine and touching, and they all fell into Su Wanjing's eyes and were deeply imprinted in her heart.
As evidenced by the poem
The lights warm the heart in the deep night.
She alone bestows upon me tender and deep affection.
Being together day and night, knowing each other's joys and sorrows,
My heart is set on you.
IV. Half-hearted indecision, half-believing
Su Wanjing sat quietly by the flickering lamplight, her gentle gaze falling on the calm and composed Chen Shanhe beside her.
The bitterness and jealousy that accumulated during the day at the clinic, the secret and awkward emotions, and the tender affection received alone at night all intertwined and surged in my heart.
On one hand, there was the scene she had witnessed during the day: Murong Fangxiang and Chen Shanhe spoke tacitly and acted intimately and familiarly.
Scenes flashed before her eyes, causing her to feel a deep sadness and a faint pang of sorrow that lingered in her heart, a feeling she found difficult to shake off.
On one hand, there is the sincere affection between the two of them when they are alone together late at night, with Chen Shanhe taking everything to heart and showing favoritism in every way.
The tender care and reliable companionship filled her heart with certainty and made her feel completely at ease.
Two completely different emotions tugged at her heart, intertwining and knotting, creating a complex feeling that was hard to describe.
She clearly saw through Chen Shanhe's true nature: he was upright and honest, with impeccable character, and deeply devoted to his feelings, never wavering or wavering in the slightest.
They journeyed together from their hometown to settle in the provincial capital. Every moment spent together, every little detail, is deeply etched in my heart.
She had long since come to trust this person completely from the bottom of her heart, certain of his character and his intentions, without the slightest doubt.
She knew perfectly well that Chen Shanhe's original intention in this life was unwavering, and he was devoted to only her. He would never betray this sincerity.
At this moment, she was torn by the scenes of the day, her heart filled with uneasy emotions, unable to let go of the bitterness in her heart.
On one hand, they are healed by the gentle companionship that is with them day and night, feeling completely at ease, trusting them wholeheartedly, and firmly certain of their feelings.
Two conflicting emotions entangled within my tender heart, both chaotic and gentle, both tangled and at peace.
After repeated ups and downs, it slowly settled down and transformed into a deep, steadfast, and unwavering affection.
As evidenced by the poem
Torn between belief and uncertainty
Two conflicting emotions linger in my heart.
Knowing that my beloved's initial intentions are steadfast,
All things are peaceful and stable, which can help to overcome bitterness and hardship.
