The meaning of a vacation is to relax and not think about the content of the work for a short time, so that you can concentrate on the work in the future. Those who have a need for a vacation are basically those with high work pressure and a decent income - those who are less stressed at work may not have this need, and those with low income are more difficult to bear the cost of vacation.

From this point of view, Chinese doctors basically belong to the worst category of "very much need for vacation, but there is no time at all, and there is no money to afford". When you are so busy with work that you can't even sleep well, the concept of vacation becomes unfamiliar. As for traveling like their counterparts abroad, it is even more unrealistic, and when the round-trip air ticket money is basically equal to one month's salary, where can the doctors have the spare time to travel? Not to mention that they have to be on duty on holidays and holidays, even if they are usually in short supply of manpower, and if there is a shortage of doctors, a large number of patients will have to wait for several hours. In general, vacations do not exist for Chinese doctors.

Sun Lien's situation is a bit special, he is the luckiest of the many medical workers. I am not busy at work, and I have not been enrolled for a long time. The lack of independent prescribing rights meant that he had to work with Zhou's permission, and when Zhou Jun was going to a meeting, he had to stop working in the emergency clinic. And Takeda's allowance made him have no financial pressure, so that he could accompany Hu Jia to live by the lake for a few days to relieve his mood.

"Come on, come on, don't be stunned. When Sun Lien drove to the villa, it was already late at night. But Old Man Xu seemed to be very interested. As soon as he saw Sun Lien coming, Comrade Xu happily took out his fishing tackle bag, took two military coats in his hand, and dragged Sun Lien's arm to the lake. "Let the female comrades be lively, let's go fishing!"

Sun Lien took the military coat and said with some worry, "Go now?" It's one o'clock in the morning, and it's the coldest time. Don't stay in a good villa, do you have to go to the lake to blow the cold wind and fish?

"It's the best time to fish at this point. Lao Xu smiled and said, "Put a little stove next to the dock, heat a pot of rice wine, and grill two small fish, beautiful!"

If you like it...... People have to bow their heads under the eaves, and the houses are rented by the goddaughters. The old man has spoken, can Sun Lien still say no? Compared with grilled small fish, Sun Lien actually wants to make an oily leg of lamb and take a bite - the preserved egg and lean porridge that Hu Jia gave him has already stuffed him into his stomach. But after a period of freezing, my stomach was already empty.

"That's right, Rachel!" Old Xu was walking out, suddenly remembered something, and shouted towards the house behind him, "Take out more skewers left over at night, I think Xiao Sun may still be hungry." ”

"Okay!" Rachel's head poked out of the doorway, her long hair tied up in a bun. She waved her hand at Sun Lien, "You guys go first, and I'll send things over in a while!"

Lao Xu continued to smile, smiling very proudly. He lowered his voice and said to Sun Lien, "Look at me, this girl! Where can I find such a diligent girl!" I don't know if the two girls refer to the same person.

Anyway, fishing is such a thing, once born, and second cooked. You may not like it at first, but as you become more proficient, the feeling of fighting wits and courage with the fish is quite enjoyable.

Eating barbecue and drinking hot wine, Sun Lien and Comrade Lao Xu sat on the shore and chatted.

"Are you busy with work as doctors?" Lao Xu looked at the bait that was stolen by the fish for the third time, hung up the new bait and threw it into the water. Leaned back a little and stretched her stiff legs, "Rachel said that they had a good life in the United States, but she didn't tell me how it was in China." ”

"When you are a doctor, it is a lie to say that you are not busy. Sun Lien sighed and talked to Lao Xu about his work experience. In the first week of getting the status bar, I received more than a dozen patients before and after, as well as the people I saw and the things I saw. Zhou Xiufang, Lin Lan, Guo Jinshui, Zheng Xiaoyu, one by one, one by one. As he spoke, Sun Lien suddenly stopped talking.

"These names, these things, even to us sound impressive stories. Lao Xu put away the fishing rod and poured a full glass of rice wine for himself and Sun Lien. "But, I'm afraid it's even more difficult for you, right? You are facing patients directly, and all you see are living people......" He looked at the silent Sun Lien and sighed. "Tired or not?"

"Tired. Sun Lien nodded, took the rice wine glass and drank it dry, and then exhaled a deep breath and went out. "I was able to take four days off and had a chance to go to Sanya for a meeting before. I didn't have to be on duty in the hospital for half a month for more than a month, but I still felt tired, tired and felt like my bones were about to break. He looked up at the dark sky and sighed, "I really don't know what other doctors rely on to support them." ”

"Yourong told us before that it was a great sense of accomplishment to be able to save a patient. Old man Xu took out a crumpled cigarette from his pocket, turned his head to look behind him, and made sure that his tigress would not come out and pull his ears, so he put the cigarette in his mouth, lit it and took a puff, "Listening to what you just said, didn't you also save a lot of patients?"

"Where did I get it back? Sun Lien's mood dropped a little, "I have been a doctor for so long, and the biggest feeling is that we are really ...... I can't cure a few people. ”

Zhou Xiufang's illness, Sun Lien, they can't cure it. Zheng Xiaoyu died directly in the emergency room. Yang Jianqiang has lost part of his memory, and it is still difficult to say whether he can pick up a life, and even Qin Ya, the girlfriend of the second Feng Ming, can relieve the symptoms of cerebral ischemia once and for all after undergoing surgery, it is not yet known.

"What can be cured is basically a minor disaster, or what we often call a 'self-limiting' disease. Sun Lien rubbed his face, "That's the kind of ...... Leave it alone and be cured. ”

"According to you, the profession of a doctor has no value at all. Old man Xu took off the hat on his head and scratched it, and a burst of heat rose from his head. "If you think that a profession that has existed for thousands of years has no value, then something must be wrong with your perception. ”

This is also a very simple reason. Of course, Sun Lien understood that he might be drilling the tip of the horns, but he just couldn't understand how this spiral of the horns trapped him.

"Although it's a bit unfortunate for someone my age to say that. Old man Xu took another puff of cigarette like a thief, "But ah, we always have to die, people, we will die." ”

Sun Lien nodded silently, waiting for Lao Xu to continue.

"This life seems to me to be like a turbulent river. "The professor of the Department of Literature did speak in a literary manner, "This great river flows downstream from its source, and in the process of flowing the river, there are always some canyons and turbulent places. There are even times when we encounter insurmountable difficulties and obstacles, even injuries. The doctor's role is to make the flow of the river smoother, and to dredge the dammed section of the river before it breaks through the dike. ”

"But most importantly, when the river is dredged, we will still run towards the power of life, which is the ocean. Professor Xu finished his cigarette and carefully pressed the cigarette butt to the ground to extinguish it, "But the doctor can only let the river return to the river, you don't have the ability to make the river flow backwards, and sometimes you can't dredge the river before the embankment is washed away." This is a very normal thing. ”

"But what if there are no doctors, what if there is no medicine? A lot of people don't even have a chance to be unplugged. Lao Xu sighed and said leisurely, "If one day I lie in the hospital, I will also hope that someone will come and try to save my life." It's great if you survive, of course, but if the salvation doesn't come to fruition, the dead won't have anything else to think of - if they do, they'll just thank you for your efforts. He stood up and poured two glasses of rice wine again, "In the most helpless time, in the most vulnerable time, there is someone willing to save you regardless of exhaustion, this is not just a doctor? ”

"Even superheroes can't save everyone, not to mention that they're virtual characters. Lao Xu held the rice wine and looked at the dark sky, "For patients, it is of course important to have a good outcome, but if the results are uncontrollable, it is enough to be gratifying to have this process." ”

"Young man, cheer up. Professor Xu raised his hand and drank the wine in his glass. "When you sing about wine, what is life? For example, the morning dew, the past day is bitter. There's no time for you to hesitate and feel sorry for yourself!

"I thought you had a lot of fun. Lying on the bed, Sun Lien and Hu Jia chatted quietly. The walls of this kind of holiday villa are quite thin, and the sound insulation is not particularly good. Therefore, both of them have to deliberately lower their voices when they speak, so as not to affect the sleep of others. "What is this, Uncle Xu gave you an ideological education lesson?"

Sun Lien smiled and nodded, regardless of whether the black light was blind or not, Hu Jia could see it or not. "To be honest, I think this class is worth it. For example, the morning dew is bitter in the past. Time is of the essence and the tasks are many. Don't give yourself time to feel sorry for yourself, and you won't be stumped by such boring thoughts. ”

"Good work, my Director Sun. Hu Jia turned over with a smile, pillowed his head on Sun Lien's arm and asked, "What was the result of the final fishing?"

"Uh...... Not a single one. Sun Lien told the truth, "I've been listening to Uncle Xu educate me, time is pressing, where can I take care of fishing?"

"Do you know that time is pressing?" Hu Jia leaned over and whispered in Sun Lien's ear, "That'...... Can I change my name to Kuduo for the time being? Probably, just for half an hour. ”
