The temperature in Nanjing may not be that low in winter, but because it is along the river and close to the sea, with dense water systems and high humidity in the air, as the rain and snow rage, there is a damp cold that invades the bone marrow. Damp and cold!

The prelude to snow here is often rain first, and then snow or ice beads. Anyway, they all carry water, which is different from the dry and cold conditions in other places. Just like the original Lushan, in winter, when the wind blows, the temperature is more than ten degrees below zero, which is quite scary. But when we arrived in Nanjing, the temperature was far less ‘bright’. But this feeling of clammy and clammy is unbearable at a few degrees below zero.

And because of this dampness and coldness, Nanjing is still different from the north. There is not much difference in temperature between indoors and outdoors, and there are no facilities such as hot pots. The indoors and outdoors are inseparable. Many people from Lushan who came to Nanjing agreed that Nanjing is Winter - cold!

Biting cold wind, three feet of ice, white snow, and dry mountains and cold pines are all symbols of winter. Lushan is like this, but it has nothing to do with Nanjing. Here, the feeling of winter is one of dampness and coldness.

Wang Zhizheng is used to this kind of cold and wet. His hometown is not far away from Nanjing. On the contrary, Pan Qian, who lives here, looks down upon the winter in Nanjing. Although she only spent one year in Nanjing last year.

Pan Qian is Pan Xi'er back then, and is the younger sister of Pan Mancang, who is now named Pan Chang. Pan Chang, who was a senior soldier two years ago, is now a full-time battalion officer, and the battalion officer of the 1st Brigade, 3rd Regiment and 1st Battalion of the Guards Division. The Imperial Guard began to reorganize half a year ago, and Pan Chang took advantage of the opportunity of the army's reorganization, and with the support of his father-in-law behind him, he jumped into the position of battalion officer. For the young Pan Chang, this is a qualitative leap.

Let’s not go into details about the background of Pan Chang’s Yue family. Being able to support Pan Chang to the position of battalion officer in the Guards Division is a blessing to the Pan family. Even Pan Chang's brother, Pan Mantun, who changed his name to Pan Tun, now relies on Pan Chang's Yue family to do business.

Although this makes Pan Chang feel a bit like marrying into the family, compared with the three brothers and sisters who were begging for food after their parents died, the Pan family's life today has changed dramatically. After brothers Pan Chang and Pan Tun got married, their little sister, Pan Qian, finally brought her partner to their home.

To be fair, Pan Qian is quite beautiful, and with a brother like Pan Chang here, she won't have to worry about finding her husband's family in Nanjing. It's just that neither Pan Chang nor Pan Tun ever thought about making decisions for his little sister, because Pan Qian's teacher in the medical camp was someone who could talk to Chen Hui and Chen Ming. Like her own granddaughter, Pan Qian personally acted as her matchmaker. Wang Zhizheng is a famous rising star in the medical camp. The young man is of an appropriate age, looks polite, and is more responsible and polite.

Pan Chang also knew what Wang Zhizheng did, which was to cut human flesh and bones with a knife. Subconsciously, he didn't want his sister to marry a 'butcher'. Well, now the surgeons in the Fuhan military medical system also have the title of ‘butcher’.

There is no way. No matter how good the medical camp is in terms of hygiene, due to the limitations of this era, many soldiers who have undergone surgery still die in pain, and many even die on the operating table.

Many soldiers know how amazing military surgeons are. How many people call these people 'gods', and how many mouths scold them like ****.

The house Pan Chang lived in was the No. 5 compound of the Imperial Guard, and there were only five compounds in the entire Imperial Guard. The ranking of this thing doesn't matter much, because none of the real senior officials of the Imperial Guard live here. There are more than a thousand houses in five compounds, and there is not even a brigade commander.

After getting off the carriage in front of the No. 5 compound, Wang Zhizheng carried it on his shoulders. How could his hairy-footed son-in-law not bring anything when he came to the door? There was still a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, and he didn't know whether he was tired or nervous.

Pansy, who was wearing a bearskin fur, then got out of the carriage, carrying two boxes, one large and one small, and a bearskin hat on her head, which was as furry as the fur coat. The beautiful little face exposed in the middle is only as big as a palm.

"Let's go, let's go home quickly." He was obviously wearing much thicker clothes than Wang Zhizheng, but Wang Zhizheng only wore a military coat, and the collar badge clearly showed that he was a military doctor. Pan Qian looked much colder than Wang Zhizheng.

"Your military ID."

To enter the compound, of course you need to get your ID card. Although there were no photographs in this era, the person's appearance was described on the certificate. Wang Zhizheng and Pan Qian even took off their hats! The soldiers standing guard didn't pay much attention to the men and women who got off the carriage. The compound was for people to live in, and many people came and went on weekdays. But when he saw that both of them were sergeants and medics, their expressions instantly became serious. At such a young age, he is already a sergeant and medic. He is definitely the most respected person in the army. Even Pansy's pretty face was ignored.

It wasn't until the two of them put on their hats and walked in carrying their things that someone came back to their senses and said, "This woman is the legendary third girl of the Pan family, right? She's really smart." More importantly, not only is she a military doctor herself, but she also His master is a leader in the medical system and he is also beautiful. During the Chinese New Year last year, Pan Qian stayed with her eldest brother for less than a month and her reputation was passed down. As for Pansy's personality, no one thought there was any problem since she grew up in a children's camp and a medical camp.

Pan Chang did not go to the army today. He knew that Pan Qian would only go to Nanjing in the past two days, so he spent all his vacation at home waiting for his brother-in-law to come.

Wang Zhizheng became more and more nervous, his body stiffened, and he didn't know when he had held his breath. He could only hear his heart beating violently. It seemed like it was about to jump out!

Pan Qian clearly felt the change in Wang Zhizheng, and just smiled.

Now they are already married, because the marriage certificate has been issued and the household registration is combined. All they lack is a wedding. Pan Qian also knew that it was a little wrong for her to drag Wang Zhizheng to her home first, but isn't the Pan family different from the Wang family? Wang Zhizheng has both parents, a sister and a brother, but Pan Qian only has two brothers.

Although there is a little meaning in this, Pan Qian also knows that she has crossed the line a bit, but she has decided to honor Wang Zhizheng's parents well during the New Year. Yes, Pan Qian and the others will only stay in Nanjing for a few days, and then they will quickly go to Zhenjiang Dantu.

"Brother..."

Pan Qian, who was crying, hugged Pan Chang and her sister-in-law Tang. Wang Zhizheng put down the gift and stood at the door at a loss, with an awkward smile on his face. God, these people have forgotten him.

But time seemed to be deliberately against Wang Zhizheng - it was walking very slowly. It was so slow that he thought he had been standing at the door for a long time. But it was also strange that his heart, which was beating fast, suddenly calmed down, except for his feverish face, which was still red. When Wang Zhizheng didn't know, Pan Chang had been paying attention to him with the corner of his eyes. It must be said that the young man looks very good. Although he still has some opinions about Wang Zhizheng's work.

"Brother!"

Wang Zhizheng looked at Pan Chang and shouted. He knew the glorious deeds of his brother-in-law. He was able to sit in the position of the commander of the Imperial Guard at a young age. Of course, he had the support of his old Yue family, but he had to be strong himself. Pan Chang was at least qualified to be on par with others, and this was all fought on the battlefield.

"Go inside, go inside." Pan Chang patted Wang Zhizheng's shoulders twice, and the latter's arms were about to go soft. Pan Chang lifted up two boxes, one large and one small, like two pieces of sugar cane.

Pan Chang's house is a typical Jiangnan residence. The five courtyards of the Imperial Guard are all distributed along the water, and the construction is naturally Jiangnan style. Entering the courtyard is a small patio, which is as wide as the central opening of the main house and only as long as the opening of the wing room. With the eaves of the houses on all four sides, the patio is even narrower. However, this high and narrow patio design has a similar function to a chimney, which is conducive to removing the dirty air in the house. The patio also serves as indoor lighting and collecting rainwater for drainage through the ditch.

There are three main rooms on the front, east and west wing rooms, left and right ear rooms, and a back hall. It is much smaller than the original house of Wang Zhizheng's family. But this is Nanjing, this is the Imperial Guard courtyard. Can it be compared with Dantu?

The main room is warm as soon as you enter, and the brazier makes the room hot. The housekeeper also brought up the tea and fruits that had been prepared long ago. Most of the housekeepers in these military compounds are relatives of martyrs, so the reliability of the personnel is guaranteed to the greatest extent. Of course, some are introduced by officers from their hometowns, so everyone must go through strict review.

Pan Tun was not there, so Pan Chang asked someone to go to the door to find someone to quickly go to the store to deal with Pan Tun.

Wang Zhizheng was stunned, "Nanjing already has full-time errand runners?" Although he only knew a little about economic knowledge, he also knew that this industry, which was officially called "walking", first appeared in the trade port, and the No. 5 compound was in the south of Nanjing City. This was already the inner city. Has Nanjing's urban economy developed to this point?

"No. It's just the clerks of the shops doing business at the gate of the compound. It's considered to make extra money."

Pan Chang explained with a smile, his eyes looking at Wang Zhizheng, and Pan Qian, who was sitting next to Wang Zhizheng, the handsome man and beautiful woman sitting together really looked a little matched. However, out of a sense of responsibility for his beloved sister, Pan Chang really wanted to hear Wang Zhizheng's thoughts on the future.

"It's good to be a military doctor in a field hospital, but the imperial army has already razed the southwest, and now there are only a few remnants in the northeast and northwest, which are not worth mentioning. I estimate that in two years at most, the Qing Dynasty will be finished. Will you still be in a field hospital by then?"

There are many places where military doctors can realize their value, but the frontline battlefield is undoubtedly the best place to reflect their value. The field hospital is equipped with the best doctors and the best medicines in China's medical field today. The only one that can compare with the box there is the newly renamed Imperial Hospital.

Pan Chang himself is also a soldier, and he knows the need for military doctors for wounded soldiers on the battlefield. Now his sister and brother-in-law, especially his brother-in-law, can be regarded as the pillars of the emergency department in any division's field hospital. Let him retire from the field hospital and live a stable life in Nanjing. Not to mention that Wang Zhizheng is very likely to disagree, even Pan Chang himself can't say it.

He is a soldier.

Wang Zhizheng was smart, and of course he knew what his brother-in-law meant. He smiled slightly, "Xier and I have already made a decision on this matter."

"When the war is over, I will try to transfer to Nanjing Medical College." This is a road that has been paved, and then I will move up step by step in the school and strive to transfer to the Central Medical College as soon as possible. In China today, it is still rare to find a high-quality surgeon. And surgery has also proved its bright future with its effectiveness. "As for Xier, Mr. Bai intends to transfer her to the Ministry of Health in two years." In this way, the two of them will be in Nanjing.

Pan Qian was smiling very proudly on the side. This was a promise made by her master. In two years, she would be a proper female official. But now there are no women in the Chen Han government. In fact, apart from the art troupe and the medical system, there is no female civil servant. Female civil servants in the arts and medical fields are also very different from proper female officials. But so what? Mr. Bai said that Pan Qian would be transferred to the Health Department in two years, so this matter is completely set in stone.

"Xier is going to be an official?" Sister-in-law Tang cried out. Her eyes were full of astonishment. Can a woman be a proper official? Even Pan Chang looked as if he had seen a ghost.

It has been hundreds of years since anyone has heard of a woman being an official. Although it is well known that there are women in the medical and art systems, this is largely due to the special nature of the two, and this has already caused dissatisfaction among many people. Now that female civil servants have been introduced into the Health Department, they are real officials.

The third sister of the Pan family is probably the first batch of formal female officials in the new dynasty. Pan Chang has no idea that women are not allowed to show their faces. After the initial shock, he immediately smiled. The higher his sister goes, the happier he is. "But this matter will definitely have a great impact, so great that it will shake the whole country. At that time, people will definitely say all kinds of things, so you have to be mentally prepared." Pan Chang is not very old, but he is very thoughtful.

Just like the women in the art troupe back then, what kind of gossip and rumors have not been spread? People who are famous are prone to gossip, and this has never been the patent of stars in the 21st century. And Pan Qian is so beautiful, it is estimated that the rumors will be unstoppable.

The public's mouth melts gold, and the accumulated criticism destroys bones!

Pan Chang continued to observe Wang Zhizheng while speaking. He said this not only to Pan Qian, but also to Wang Zhizheng. Give him a reminder first!

Pan Qian is not an ordinary housewife, she has her own identity; she is not the woman in the art troupe back then. What kind of ugly words has she not heard when she was rolling in the rivers and lakes? Pan Qian is different. Both sides have different psychological tolerance.

Families like Wang Zhizheng and Pan Qian are completely different from the traditional Chinese family model of "male breadwinner and female breadwinner".

The female also has a strong social and political status and is not entirely an appendage of the male. The male and female are already very close, especially Pan Qian has the Pan family as a backing. In such a family, trust and being trusted are extremely important.

Chen Han law recognized "divorce" and changed a new word - divorce. But no one wants to "divorce". Whether in this era or in China's thousands of years of history, there are always very few people who choose to be reasonable.

Trust is based on understanding.

In the 21st century, many couples lack trust. On the surface, it seems that one party makes the other party untrustworthy. In fact, they lack trust in themselves in their hearts and are always suspicious. In the end, they gradually push the trusting and warm relationship into mutual accusations and suspicions, and finally a crisis.

Pan Chang hadn't thought that far. He simply believed that no man could tolerate being cuckolded. If Pan Qian's gossips became more frequent, would Wang Zhizheng be able to believe them?

"She's not that kind of person!" Wang Zhizheng grabbed Pan Qian's hand and said firmly.
