Chapter 68 Chapter 67: This Hate

In November 1951, Su Guanlan married Ye Yuhan.The newlyweds are both forty-one years old.The groom has gray eyebrows, but the bride has dyed her hair and put on light makeup.The witness is Professor Li Zhuoyu.The officiant is General Lu Ning.A grand wedding was held on the bank of Xuanwu Lake, and two hundred guests came to congratulate.Sixteen-year-old Jin Xingji asked for leave from school and came all the way from Beijing to present flowers to the newlyweds.Lu Ning let her speak.With tears in her eyes, she only said a few words: "I warmly congratulate my dear parents for finally getting married and getting married! I want to be like them and become the best and best person in the world today."

As the wedding drew to a close, Commissar Mao whispered, "Comrade Lu Ning, among the nine speakers today, this little girl is the best speaker!" "It's called Yueyuanhuahao—" Lu Ning replied with a smile, "'Yueyuan' means that the bride and groom will get married, and 'Huahao' means that they have such a big daughter when they get married." Commissar Mao straightened his thumbs up: "Hey, you speak better!" Soon, Lu Ning transferred to Beijing to work in the Ministry of Health.Ah Luo then went to Beijing and worked as a secretary in the Chinese Nurses Association.

In 1952, the departments of colleges and universities across the country were adjusted.Su Guanlan participated in the merger of the Department of Pharmacy of Qilu University into Nanjing College of Pharmacy, and the transformation of Nanjing College of Pharmacy into Jinling College of Pharmacy.That is, in this year, the United States launched a germ warfare in order to restore the unfavorable situation on the Korean battlefield. It sent planes to the main towns in North Korea and important cities in Northeast my country such as Shenyang, Changchun, Harbin, Qiqihar, Jinzhou, Shanhaiguan, Dandong and other places, as well as railways. Bacterial weapons were used along the route for more than 3,000 attacks, and the "bombs" were filled with rats, fleas, flies, and garbage that could spread plague and other vicious infectious diseases.Ye Yuhan was ordered to go into battle in the face of danger, and went to the Northeast to cooperate with scientists from various countries to conduct investigations, guide the local military and civilians to disinfect and eliminate pests on a large scale, and shattered the germ warfare.

In 1953, Professor Su Guanlan was transferred to the capital to serve as the deputy director and researcher of the Department of Pharmacy of the Central Institute of Health; Ye Yuhan returned to the long-lost Peking Union Medical College to work as an experimental instructor in the department of microbiology. In 1954, Lu Ning served as the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Health.In 1956, the Central Institute of Health was changed to the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, and Lu Ning concurrently served as Secretary of the Party Committee of the Academy.At the same time, the Department of Pharmacy was changed to the Institute of Experimental Drugs, with Professor Su Guanlan as the deputy director.Ye Yuhan was originally frail and sickly. After participating in the polio vaccine identification work of the Kunming Institute of Biological Products of the Ministry of Health, she was admitted to the hospital after returning to Beijing. Going out to attend academic conferences, claiming to be an "auditor".

Everyone thought, Su Guanlan and his wife also thought that at such an advanced age, they would not be able to have children, and the "quality" of children would not be good.However, by accident, Ye Yuhan found out that she was pregnant while working in the Northeast!She was overjoyed that the pregnancy feeling and all the signs were normal, which became the main reason why her superiors urged her to return to Nanjing.Finally, at the end of 1952, Su Guanlan and his wife's daughter Su Tian was born in Nanjing; their son Su Yuan was born in Beijing in the summer of 1954. Both children were healthy and smart.The couple were happy, and Jin Xingji clapped her hands happily, and ran to her parents as soon as she was on holiday.With a little sister and a little brother, the family is very lively.Lu Ning said: "Little Xingxing, you said that your parents are the best people in the world today-yes, this means that good people will be rewarded!" .After graduating from university in 1957, he was assigned to the Institute of Experimental Drugs, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences.Su Guanlan said to her: "From now on, we will be comrades, colleagues, and subordinates. Don't bring your family relationship to the work unit, and don't call me 'father' anymore, at least not in the office."

"Then, what's it called?" "Call, call it 'Deputy Director Su' like everyone else, oh no, call it 'Teacher Su'." "What do you call mother?" "Still call mom!" One day in 1954, Su Guanlan, deputy director of the Department of Pharmacy, was arranged to receive an interview from a reporter from the China News Service, and introduce the latest progress in pharmaceutical research in New China.The reporter came. He was a short, fat man with a bald head and wearing a pair of glasses with shallow myopia. He looked a little familiar.Deputy Director Su picked up the introduction letter and read it again, and found that it was really an old acquaintance—Zhu Ertong.

It has been twenty years since Zhu Ertong was expelled from Qilu University in 1934!The two were very excited, shook hands tightly, hugged for a long time, managed to control their emotions, and sat down to talk in detail.What they are talking about is not "the latest progress in pharmacology research in New China", but their respective experiences in the past two decades.Zhu Ertong was forced to leave Jinan at that time, went to Shanghai to enter an art college, and then went to France to study.He returned to China in 1951 and worked as an art editor and photojournalist at the China News Agency.

Zhu Ertong said that his brother Zhu Yutong is now a professor at Beijing Normal University.Su Guanlan told Zhu Ertong that she and Ye Yuhan were married and had children.Zhu Ertong patted his old classmate on the shoulder vigorously: "Congratulations, you have found the best woman in the world!" Then he asked softly, "Old Su, where is the other best woman in the world in your destiny?" ?” Su Guanlan's face suddenly changed, and Zhu Ertong quickly changed the subject. Zhu Ertong is active and capable.He found an old courtyard house in the deep alley outside Qianmen. The place is very secluded, but not far from the door is the lively and bustling Qianmen Street, where everything is convenient.The two bought the house together and became neighbors.There were several "Xifu Begonias" in the courtyard, and each of the two families raised some potted flowers. The Su family raised mostly orchids, including Chunlan, Cymbidium, Jianlan, Molan and Rhododendron, etc.

One day in 1955, Suzanne passed through Beijing on a business trip and was going back to Kunming after staying at her brother-in-law's house.Su Guanlan sent her sister to Qianmen Station.The train was about to start, Shanshan stretched out her hand from the window, and held her brother for a long time; after hesitating for a while, she finally asked: "How is your relationship with your sister-in-law?" "Don't worry, Shanshan." Su Guanlan closed her hot eyes, "Now your brother and your sister-in-law are dependent on each other!" What is "depending on each other"?It means that two people are merged into one, and neither can be separated from the other; that is, they are both rooted in each other's life, and there is me in you, and you in me; that is, if one of the two is happy, the other will be happy, and if the two One of them dies and the other cannot survive for a long time—yes, this is the true portrayal of the relationship between Su Guanlan and Ye Yuhan.

However, Su Guanlan finally realized that the phrase "depending on each other" means more conscience and responsibility, morality and loyalty, and does not necessarily mean... love.Su Guanlan knew clearly that he never forgot another "best woman in the world" in his destiny.On the contrary, as time went by, his concern and miss for Miss Qiong became longer, deeper and stronger.After the founding of New China, countless scientists studying in Europe and the United States resolutely gave up their affluent life and superior working conditions, overcame obstacles, went through hardships and set foot on the journey home.Su Guanlan anxiously followed all the developments in this regard.But year after year, scientists who had studied in Europe and America returned one by one, but they never saw Sister Qiong, or even got the slightest information about her.Could it be that, as my father said, after sister Qiong got married in the United States, she went to the beach with her husband to live a happy life, while Su Guanlan only ended up "being ruthlessly abandoned"?

Su Guanlan once believed that her father's "logic" was rigorous.But he gradually realized that his "logic" was too imprecise: What facts and evidence can prove that what his father said is the truth? Su Guanlan lived in Beijing for a long time, but never went to the Summer Palace, because sister Qiong waited for him at the East Palace Gate for three days!Also in the scientific community, Su Guanlan avoids meeting Ling Yunzhu, the vice president of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, because the old professor is a witness of the acquaintance and love between him and Qiong sister... He is always careful not to touch the scars on his soul, deeply Afraid to look back on the past, let alone think about it.He bundled the letters and photos that Sister Qiong had given him in the past years into dozens of packages, filled a large suitcase, and never touched it; he silently suppressed the pain and confusion that only he could experience. Is he the only one who "can appreciate it himself"?No, there is also Yuhan.The wife not only knew about the suitcase full of letters and photos, but also carefully sorted and repacked it many times, and put desiccant in the box. The professor remembered what he said to Sister Qiong back then: I have another relative, and this relative is you! If you can't get married, you should still be relatives. "Think about your loved ones every festive season".Especially on the traditional New Year's Eve, eating reunion dinner, keeping the year old, setting off fireworks, watching fireworks, the sound of cannons rumbling all over the sky, colorful and colorful, thousands of families in China are ecstatic.At times like this, Su Guanlan often stays up all night, in a trance, closing her eyes and meditating alone on the sofa in the study. During such sleepless nights, how could Yuhan fall asleep.She kept silent and never disturbed her husband. She just went into the house every one or two hours to refill water or add clothes for her husband. She silently expressed her thoughtfulness and understanding, and also silently showed her ocean-like generosity. and tenderness... Professor Su Guanlan left Beijing occasionally to attend academic conferences and also visited the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, but the time was very short.It was not until the autumn of 1958 that he left Beijing for a long time for the first time, and went to work in the Democratic Republic of Vietnam as the leader of the Chinese medical expert group and in the name of a "study visit".There were more than 30 comrades who participated in the expert group. Others only stayed in Vietnam for a dozen or dozens of days, and returned to China in two or three months at most. Only the group leader, Professor Su Guanlan, stayed for a whole year.During this period, not only did he not return to the country once, but he even went to Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam, only three or four times.Every time I go there is for work, and I have to wear a full suit and tie according to "diplomatic etiquette", and I am sweating profusely, which is very uncomfortable.He would rather trek in the deep mountains and dense forests with his colleagues, although there are no towns, no post offices, no roads and means of transportation, and even no human habitation.There were only animal tracks and snake bites, and people became black and thin, covered with scars; it was difficult to even write a letter to the jade letter, and it was impossible to post it, and when it could be sent, it said Guangxi, China Nanning "Mailbox No. 1093"... Vietnam has fought wars for years and may still fight.Combat will reduce the number of troops.But in this tropical country, malaria can cause even greater attrition.So China was asked to provide a large amount of antimalarial drugs, and China continued to generously support it, and at the same time thought of extracting antimalarial drugs from local materials-even after the war ended, this would be of great benefit to Vietnam.Professor Su Guanlan's experience and contribution in extracting antimalarial drugs from Artemisia aurorae during the Anti-Japanese War has not been forgotten, and now it is getting more attention, so he led the team to Vietnam. The panel did it!Wild artemisia, which can be used to extract high-efficiency antimalarial drugs, has finally been found in Vietnam.After training talents on the spot and building a pharmaceutical factory, Professor Su Guanlan, who was eager to return home, and the last six members of the expert team returned to Nanning by train, and then returned to Beijing by plane. For Su Guanlan, the long-term arduous trek and heavy work abroad have a minimum benefit, that is, the mental pain can be diluted with extreme fatigue-but, unexpectedly, the scar was torn open as soon as she returned to Beijing! During the sleepless night that just passed, Su Guanlan thought over and over again: Sister Qiong is still alive and has returned to her motherland.How did she disappear back then, and how did she come back today?How did she come to the depths of the alley outside the front door yesterday evening?During the thirteen years when there was no news, what happened?Sister Qiong, you have returned to your motherland and Beijing. Where are you in Beijing? Last night, Yuhan murmured with tears in her eyes: Sister Qiong has been separated from you for decades, and she finally came to our door today.However, you actually hid your face and didn't see her.Do you know how deeply she will be hurt! Su Guanlan replied at the time: The past, let it pass forever... The professor finally knew: the past did not "gone forever", nor would it "gone forever"!
