Chapter 3 Doctor Xiaowei 1
Wei Jia got off work from the clinic on time today, and he went shopping for groceries on the way home.Jinguang Vegetable Market is one of the most popular markets in the old city. It occupies a small area but has a rich variety of products. Many unique local ingredients can only be bought here.Most of the regular vendors in the market knew him, and they took the initiative to bring him the freshest and juiciest ones, whether it was shallots or tomatoes.When he went to the butcher stall to pick up the meat he reserved for greeting him in the morning, the pork seller Old Wu greeted him while chopping ribs: "Dr. Xiaowei is treating guests to dinner at home today?"

"Here's a friend..." Wei Jia smiled, and before he finished speaking, someone patted his shoulder gently.Standing beside him is Aunt Mo, a neighbor who lives in the same building.Aunt Mo is a local. She retired three years ago and moved to Jinguang Lane to take care of her daughter. She is very enthusiastic and knows Wei Jia well.

"The customers are already at the door, so take it easy..." Aunt Mo smiled meaningfully.

Wei Jia looked at his watch in surprise: "Really?"

"Why not! You said that you invited a girl to come over for dinner and didn't know how to leave work early. People don't need you to pick you up. Didn't you just meet?" Aunt Mo tsk-tsk, "That girl is really not bad. , the back looks like a fairy. If you can bring it home, it means that the heat is almost ready, good job! Let me just say, Aunt Wang and Grandma Qiqi always want to find you a girlfriend, such as your own niece, colleagues and children. You're just messing around, so you won't fall in love with them!"

"No, no, the neighbors are all kind. The girls I introduced are in good condition. It's my problem..." Wei Jia took the ribs handed over by Old Wu, smiled and said to Aunt Mo who was getting louder and louder: " The person who came here today is just a friend, and you will come to eat at home another day, so I will go back first."

"Doctor Xiao Wei, I heard that it's a female customer. I'll cut the pork ribs into small pieces for you, so it's easier to eat. Remember to blanch them in cold water when you get home!" Old Wu, the pork seller, yelled at Wei Jia's back.Wei Jia turned around politely to thank him.

Old Wu watched him go away, rubbed the oil on his hand on the apron, and said casually: "Doctor Xiaowei is really nice! He has good character, appearance, and temper. Any girl is lucky to find him." of."

"He's good. If it wasn't for the burden at home, I wouldn't be able to find anything. Old Wu, pick me a piece of fresh pork liver, and I'll use it to stir-fry at night."

"Aunt Mo, do you regret that your daughter got married early?"

"Nonsense! In my opinion, no daughter in Jinguang Lane is worthy of Wei Jia." Aunt Mo seemed to really like this young man who lived downstairs from her. "He should have high vision. Even if there are sick people at home, it’s not like you don’t even have a girlfriend in your early thirties.”

"Doctor Wei? Hey, how can he lack a girlfriend? My dad saw him sending a girl out of the house while taking a walk a while ago. I also saw him bring a woman home for the night, that is, a few years ago, The two of them sneaked out in the middle of the night to buy supper, hugging each other tightly, that woman is crippled, she is definitely not the same person my father saw!" Xiao Fang, who was helping his parents sell roasted stew next door, saw that they were chatting enthusiastically, and also Join the ranks of gossip.He lived in Jinguang Lane since he was a child, and he is also young, and his perspective on people and things is different from those of the elderly neighbors: "It's just that he doesn't want to get married. Do you really think he lives like a Bodhisattva? He just moved here Sometimes I live with girls, I heard that they are often changed, and they are all beautiful chicks."

"Both you and your father have bad eyesight!" Aunt Mo was very upset that the good-natured young man she knew was described by Xiao Fang as a vagabond.But she suddenly thought of the young woman wearing sunglasses she met at the entrance of the corridor just now, she was so eye-catching... She had good eyes, but she didn't have the nerve to look closely at that time.When she realized that the woman was going to Wei Jia's house on the second floor, she only had time to take a closer look at her back.Tall, fair-skinned, although very thin, he has long legs and a thin waist. He looks better when he walks than when he dances. At a glance, he doesn't seem to be living a good life.It seems that this man, no matter old or young, good or bad, likes to be beautiful.

"Where does the little Wei doctor you mentioned open a clinic, and what does he specialize in? I've been dizzy for a while, I don't know if he can help me." Xiao Fang's description of Wei Jia's emotional secrets, why not? So people who are familiar with him fill in the other side of the image of Doctor Xiaowei.The young wife of the beef stall owner in the front moved her mind and asked everyone with a smile on her face.

Aunt Mo has long been displeased with her appearance, and every time a more handsome man comes to buy beef, she can't wait to paste her own body on it.Aunt Mo gave a "bah" in her heart and said, "His clinic is at the entrance of the alley, don't go wrong."

"Then I'll go tomorrow." Beef Xishi said happily.

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone around her laughed.Xiao Fang and Aunt Mo laughed the loudest.Old Wu was kind, cleared his throat and reminded: "Doctor Xiaowei, he is a veterinarian!"

Wei Jia went up to the second floor, but there was no one at the door.Today's visitor knew where the spare key was, so he was not surprised and opened the door silently.There is a new pair of women's shoes in the entrance, the living room is empty, but the door of You Qingfen's room is open and the lights are on.Wei Jia changed his shoes and went straight to the kitchen, greeting the people in the room: "Sorry, I'm late from get off work. Please sit down for a while, dinner will be served soon."

No one answered him, probably busy.They were all acquaintances, Wei Jia didn't take it seriously, he just wanted to cook the meal as soon as possible.When washing the vegetables, the water from the faucet flowed through the green leaves and his fingertips, and he tried to ignore a certain strange feeling in his heart that had existed since he entered the door—it was all right, but something was wrong.

Strictly speaking, this feeling that haunted him should have been brewing when Aunt Mo described how his guest tonight looked like, or even earlier.For no reason, he saw a green grasshopper-like sports car on the way home, as well as the pair of pointed-toed women's shoes that looked expensive at the door.Although he didn't have much research on women's shoes, but that style, that shoe size, that irregular placement...a shivering chill ran from his spine to the back of his neck. Stand up quietly.

This kind of creature's instinctive prediction of the approaching danger drove Wei Jia to turn off the faucet and walk to You Qingfen's room. Within a short distance of a dozen steps, two voices echoed in his heart: No way, hell!No way, damn it!
Damn... damn it!
The sound finally settled down.

He saw You Qingfen leaning on the bed as usual, with a cold and pale complexion.There were two people sitting around the small table next to her bed where medicine was placed. The figure who was fiddling with sunglasses noticed his approach and turned around with a smile: "Did the meal be ready?"

Wei Jia clearly felt that he produced a large amount of adrenaline, norepinephrine and dopamine due to stress, resulting in increased myocardial contractility and shortness of breath.The lighting in this room is not very good, and You Qingfen doesn't like light, it is usually dark and silent, and there is a smell of medicine and the body odor of a patient who has been bedridden for a long time.Now the bright light source on the top and the unscrupulous smell of perfume from the man made Wei Jia dizzy again.

Chen Xi ignored Wei Jia's silence and indifference: "I thought your first sentence would ask me why I came back?"

"It has nothing to do with me, you go quickly."

"So you didn't cook to welcome me? I'm a little disappointed."

Wei Jia had no intention of wasting words with her, and asked with a cold face, "How did you get in?" He didn't think You Qingfen would be able to climb out and open the door for her—if You Qingfen knew that it was Chen Xi who had come, she might wish to be at the door Top table.

"It's time for me to ask you, why haven't you changed the locks for so many years, do you know that it's dangerous?" Chen Xiyu said earnestly.

She is the greatest danger Wei Jia has encountered in his life!When she left, she obviously handed over the keys, when did she keep one?But this is not important anymore.His gaze was locked on the glass on the low table, which contained a yellow transparent liquid.

"What's that?" He took a deep breath and asked, pointing to the cup.

"Aperitif wine!" Chen Xi replied smoothly, "The taste is not bad, would you like a glass?"

"Where did you get the wine?"

In recent years, Wei Jia has never drunk alcohol, and You Qingfen is a patient, so there is no possibility of alcohol in this house.

"I found it in the kitchen." Chen Xi swung the glass and took a sip gracefully.

Wei Jia remembered, isn't that the cooking wine he used for cooking?The corner of his mouth twitched: "You are not picky."

"Whether I'm picky or not, didn't you already know?"

Wei Jia usually didn't use that bottle of cooking wine much, and he remembered that there was still more than half of the bottle left.He found it under the low table, nothing but an empty bottle.Chen Xi had a suspicious blush on her cheeks, and she winked and frivolously while speaking, which showed that she drank a lot.Of the three glasses on the table, only the one in front of her bottomed out...

Three cups!

Wei Jia looked at the glass of wine in front of You Qingfen, and quickly stepped forward to take a closer look.You Qingfen's complexion was as usual, but there was still a little bit of wet wine stains on the neckline of her chest.The mixed taste of alcohol, cinnamon and aniseed ingredients, isn't it the "pre-dinner wine" that Chen Xi admires?
"Did you let her drink?" Wei Jia asked softly, biting his back teeth.

"She wants to drink it herself." Chen Xi looked innocent, "If you don't believe me, ask her."

As she spoke, she raised her chin towards You Qingfen: "Tell Jiajia yourself, do you want to drink? If so, just blink."
