Into Unscientific

Chapter 721 Chinese New Year (Part 2)

"Professor Yang, can you walk on the ground now?"

Hearing Xu Yun's words.

Yang Kaiqu, who was supported by Yuan Guoliang and Zhou Kaida, nodded slowly, showed the crutch in his hand to Xu Yun, and said:

"Thanks to you, Xiao Xu, I can barely get out of the wheelchair, but I have to take a break after walking a few steps, and I'm still far away from actually going to the ground."

Looking at Yang Kaiqu who looked a little regretful, Xu Yun's heart was filled with joy instead of sadness.

Mentioned earlier.

At this time, the staff hospital only had two special care wards. To be precise, there were three sets of ECG monitors.

Xu Yun and Yang Kaiqu shared one ward, and the other room was occupied by Engineer Wang Li, the lover of Xia Min, the director of the 17th branch factory.

Wang Liming was seriously injured in an explosives accident, and Dr. Lin Yu completed the amputation of his left leg.

Wang Liming had been in a coma and critical condition for a long time before. He also developed an infection after the operation and could stop breathing at any time.

But luckily.

About a month ago.

Wang Liming successfully turned the corner and regained his sense of autonomy.

So after several days of observation, Wang Liming was transferred from the special care ward.

At the same time, naturally, the vacant special care ward was arranged for Yang Kaiqu to use.

After all, although Xu Yun and Yang Kaiqu share a ward to avoid being unaware of certain unexpected events, they still mostly influence each other most of the time.

For example, sometimes Xu Yun had discussions very late in other project teams the night before and had to catch up on sleep the next day.

But Yang Kaiqu had to inject paclitaxel every morning, and he had to be assisted when getting out of bed, which would wake Xu Yun up almost every time.

Sleep is a fucked up thing. Sometimes even if you don't get enough sleep, you can't fall back asleep after waking up once.

Xu Yun's influence on Yang Kaiqu is also the same.

Sometimes Xu Yun had to get out of bed when Yang Kaiqu was resting, or Lao Guo came to him to explain something. The whole process would inevitably affect Yang Kaiqu's recovery.

So after vacating the room, the base placed Yang Kaiqu in that ward.

Therefore, Xu Yun has not seen Yang Kaiqu for almost a month. Unexpectedly, the old man can actually walk on the ground?

True.

At this time, Yang Kaiqu had not fully recovered his ability to move independently. He had to be supported by Yuan Guoliang and Zhou Kaida on both sides every time he walked.

But don't forget.

What was Yang Kaiqu like when he first arrived at the base?

At that time, Yang Kaiqu could only lean on a wheelchair, unable to open his eyes, and could not say a word for a long time.

Out of 24 hours a day, he spends at least 20 hours passively sleeping.

To put it more bluntly.

At that time, Yang Kaiqu was basically exhausted, and it would not be surprising when he passed away.

If it were not for the purpose of admonishing the organization to pay attention to wild rice samples, Hou Guangjiong, Zhou Kaida and others would never have brought Yang Kaiqu to the base.

Now Yang Kaiqu can walk on the ground

What kind of bike do you need?

more importantly.

According to the original historical development, Yang Kaiqu died on February 2 this year.

But it was already February 4th, two days past the original date.

Not only did Yang Kaiqu not have any accidents, he was able to walk on the ground and have a simple conversation with Xu Yun.

Think of this.

Xu Yun subconsciously clenched his fists, and he changed the regrettable trajectory of another ancestor.

Immediately afterwards.

Xu Yun realized something again, raised his head and asked Zhou Kaida who had just walked beside him:

"Teacher Zhou, looking at Professor Yang, could it be that the medical laboratory has already developed targeted drugs?"

After hearing this, Zhou Kaida first pulled up a nearby chair for Yang Kaiqu to sit down, and then scratched his hair:

"Well, I heard Xiaotu talk about targeted drugs last week, but at that time she seemed to be talking about low-dose clinical use."

Zhou Kaida's answer was a bit choppy and ambiguous in some places.

no way.

After all, for an agriculturalist like him, medical-related content is still somewhat cross-field.

At that time, he didn't fully understand Tu Luming's introduction, let alone the retelling at this time - he only knew that there was a special medicine for his teacher's condition, and knowing this was actually enough.

Fortunately, Zhou Kaida didn't understand the situation, and there were other knowledgeable people at the scene.

"Consultant Xu, I should know more about this matter than Teacher Zhou, so let me introduce it."

Li Jue's assistant Zhou Cai quickly pulled out a small notebook. Although he was not a medical practitioner, the role of secretary required him to be somewhat involved in many fields:

"About half a month ago, Director Liu Youcheng of the Chemistry Laboratory said that he had initially mastered the point identification technology of PCR."

"Then with the assistance of Comrade Lou Zhicen and Comrade Tu Luming, they successfully isolated the Q1-Q4 gene sites within paclitaxel and produced a relatively initial version of the targeted drug sample."

"This targeted drug should be quite different from the finished product you envisioned, Consultant Xu, but it is theoretically many times more effective than injecting paclitaxel."

"So after consulting Comrade Yang Kaiqu for his opinion, Comrade Tu Luming gave him a small dose of injection for a week. The current situation is quite satisfactory."

Xu Yun touched his chin twice.

Sure enough

He wondered why Yang Kaiqu could go to the ground. It turned out that the targeted drug had an effect.

Targeted drugs will be very effective in 2023, let alone in this era.

To know.

Lung cancer is actually being "updated" all the time, but its mutation speed is not as fast as the neon people's mutation.

Even around the 1920s, lung cancer was not a common disease.

Of course.

As Zhou Cai said, the targeted drug here is obviously not the genuine product as Xu Yun imagined.

Xu Yun had previously handed over to the organization a targeted drug formula using N-methylindole and dichloropyrimidine as starting materials based on the knowledge acquired by later generations (he was a doctor of biomedicine). According to the normal progress, the rabbits could It would be quick to produce an initial version within this year.

The targeted drug developed by Liu Youcheng and Tu Luming should strictly belong to the technology of "precisely delivering paclitaxel extract to the corresponding point", but the core logic is still different.

However, no matter how primitive the version is, it is definitely much better than the original injection method.

As for the practice of using drugs directly without going through phase III clinical trials or double-blind trials, it’s a joke. Who can care about that at this time?

Then Xu Yun looked at Yang Kaiqu with concern, thought for a moment, and said:

"Professor Yang, although your health has improved a lot, the examinations you need to do still need to be done for a long time."

"After all, cancer is a very mysterious thing, and big things may happen if you let your guard down even a little bit."

to be honest.

According to Chinese traditional customs, it is not suitable for Xu Yun to say such harsh words on a day like New Year's Eve.

However, Xu Yun knew the temperament of these seniors very well. If he didn't speak emphatically, he might secretly start doing his own thing.

Although Yang Kaiqu is not so outrageous as secretly running to Qionghai Farm to conduct experiments, there is a high probability that he will spend a few more hours every day writing documents and summarizing his experience on the grounds that his condition has improved.

Yang Kaiqu nodded slightly when he heard this, at least he seemed very cooperative:

"Yes, I understand. Don't worry, Xiao Xu."

"I also hope that we can survive another year or two and see our own atomic bombs and nuclear bombs successfully explode."

Xu Yun stared at him carefully for more than ten seconds before looking away.

Even though Yang Kaiqu said this, he still decided to find an opportunity to mention this matter to Li Jue.

If these old comrades are still allowed to burn themselves in the current situation, then his time travel will be a failure.

Then Xu Yun and Yang Kaiqu found a place with clear light to bask in the sun, while Li Jue and others returned to the command site and began to arrange various tables and chairs for the New Year's Eve dinner.

over time.

The dust on the entire street was swept away, and a paper table was neatly pieced together and placed on the ground.

More than two hours later.

Two transport trucks drove over from a distance and stopped at an open space next to the cinema.

The area of ​​the open space is about hundreds of square meters. The ground is flat and clean, and there is a side wall of the movie theater to block the wind. If the location where the dining table is placed has a grade or quality, this open space will undoubtedly be regarded as the best. at.

However, there was no table or chair in this open space at this time. Instead, a shed had been erected very early.

After the transport vehicle stops.

Several men wearing white single-breasted coats with long sleeves, white chef hats on their heads, and black trousers came out of the carriage.

Then these people worked together to carry several stoves, chopping boards and other things, and placed them neatly in the open space.

It is clear.

These men who dress a little differently are the master chefs responsible for cooking at the base.

Xu Yun then looked at the masters and curiously asked Qiao Caihong behind him:

"Comrade Rainbow, what do the threads on these masters' arms mean?"

There were a lot of chefs working on the stove at this time. Xu Yun didn't count the exact number, but at a glance, there should be more than ten.

After all, there are 80 tables at the main factory tonight, with more than 800 people. Even just catching dumplings will require a lot of manpower.

And predictably so.

These more than ten chefs are just the ones responsible for cooking. There should be others who are the main force in making dumplings.

Otherwise, assuming that one person eats thirty dumplings, eight hundred people would have 24,000 dumplings. If they were divided among these dozen masters to make the dumplings, each person would have to bear 2,000 dumplings.

However, even if there are only a dozen people here, their internal attire is also slightly different:

Some people have a red line drawn on their arms, some have a blue line, and some have a green line. As for the black line, Xu Yun didn't see it, probably because white and black are unlucky on New Year's Eve.

"Oh, you're talking about these colored threads."

Qiao Caihong stood on tiptoes, looked in the direction Xu Yun pointed for a while, and quickly explained:

"This is the difference between red cases, white cases and Dunzi's leadership. The ones with red lines are red cases, the ones with all white lines are white cases, and the blue ones should be code grabbing."

Only then did Xu Yun suddenly realize.

The red case Qiao Caihong mentioned was not the Hong'an base planned by Xu Yun, but a functional classification in the Chinese kitchen.

Baiyan is the pastry chef. The wontons, steamed buns, steamed buns, and xiaolongbao that everyone usually eats are all Baiyan. The word "bai" comes from the color of flour.

The red table is the meat cook. Braised pork, stewed meat, steamed chicken, and stir-fried beef are all red tables. Red is the color of blood.

Dunzi means Cai Dun chopping board, that is, the master who cuts vegetables and meat with a knife, and is one of the subordinates assigned to Hong An.

The chief chef on Dunzi is called "Toudun". He must have strong knife skills, be familiar with the properties, prices and proportions of raw materials, and be responsible for the matching and production of semi-finished products for high-end dishes.

The same is true for the remaining Zhang Shao and Zhu Ma - Zhang Shao is the chef in the popular sense, and Zhu Ma is the assistant who prepares ingredients for Zhang Shao.

The protagonists of today's New Year's Eve dinner are beef and mutton dumplings, but when it comes to the specific dishes, they will definitely not be so monotonous, and there will be more or less side dishes.

The small side dishes are garlic and cucumber dipping sauce, and the big side dishes are scrambled eggs with tomatoes or roasted potatoes with pickled vegetables, etc., so there are quite a few types of work that need to be coordinated.

Strange to say.

After these masters appeared, a bunch of little dolls appeared out of nowhere around the open space. The older ones were twelve or thirteen years old, and the younger ones were five or six years old. They were babbling around the stove and making a lot of noise. .

"Uncle! Can you give me some candy?"

"I missed it! I missed it!"

"Idiot, that's called meat!"

"Hey, eat my sword! (Green Onion)"

Seeing these noisy little guys, a burly master immediately put on a vicious posture and pretended to be angry:

"Don't make trouble! Let's play for a while! If you make any more noise, I will use the loudspeaker to notify your parents!"

Unexpectedly, these little devils continued to make trouble without fear, and some of them slightly made faces at the master.

The master slapped his forehead in annoyance. There was really nothing he could do about these naughty children.

But just when the master was helpless, a thin male chef quietly approached him and whispered something to him.

The master's expression suddenly lit up, he pointed at Xu Yun from afar and said:

"Have you seen that big brother over there? His name is Xu Yun - yes, that's the Xu Yun who drinks three pounds of donkey blood every day!"

"The leader deliberately didn't let him eat today. He just watched which kid made a big fuss and said he wanted to catch the noisiest kid and drink his blood!"

Many naughty children subconsciously looked in the direction of Xu Yun. After seeing Xu Yun's terrifying (disfigured) appearance, their faces suddenly turned pale.

A few seconds passed.

I don’t know who shouted, “Run away.” A group of naughty children ran away from the scene crying for their fathers and mothers:

"Mom, help me!!!"

Xu Yun:

"????"

What happened?

Qiao Caihong on the side puffed out his cheeks and tried not to laugh.

Well, you must not let Consultant Xu know that she actually put a lot of effort into spreading this rumor.

I don’t know if the words these naughty kids shouted for “mother” really worked.

More than ten minutes later, a group of lesbians of different ages suddenly appeared in another direction.

There were probably close to a hundred of these lesbians, and Xu Yun had a vague impression that some of them must be family members of the base management.

For example, Xu Yun met Lu Guangda's wife Xu Luxi and Wang Ganchang's wife Wu Yueqin among these people.

These two lesbians did not have much interaction with Base 221 in their original history. However, at Xu Yun's suggestion, the organization recently decided to bring the family members of several core personnel to the base.

Because their loyalty and even chastity have been proven in the original history, Xu Yun believes that these couples in this timeline should no longer suffer from the branch.

It's just that this has a bit of an impact on their guards, who have to stand far away when on duty every night.

At the same time, several donkey carts arrived at the scene with this group of lesbians. After the carts stopped, everyone quickly unloaded a large number of enamel washbasins wrapped in plastic films.

Xu Luxi lifted one of the washbasins to another chopping board and tore off the film to reveal the reconciled interior.

Dumpling Dough.

Wu Yueqin next to her was also holding a basin, which was filled with beef filling.

at the same time.

A boy who was following his mother jumped twice excitedly, and the child's immature but translucent voice instantly spread throughout the audience:

"Hey! Make dumplings!!!"

Hear this.

Many employees who were helping stopped what they were doing and looked over.

Even Li Jue, the person in charge of coordinating on-site dispatching, couldn't help but glance in this direction.

Make dumplings.

This word, which everyone in later generations comes into contact with every day and has become a somewhat annoying gag in sketches, is extremely lethal in this period.

Even in the capital or magic city outside the base, dumplings are still a very enviable food.

In a sense.

During this period, dumplings have broken away from the category of food and have become a spiritual sustenance.

Xu Luxi was not disgusted with this noisy child. She smiled and touched the little boy's head:

"Kid, can you make dumplings?"

The little boy's chest puffed up:

"meeting!"

"It's so powerful, how many can you eat?"

The little boy thought for a little longer this time. He put his finger on his chin and thought for a while:

"Twenty-five no, fifty!"

Upon hearing the number fifty, there was a burst of friendly laughter all around.

To know.

What the base prepared this time was standard large dumpling wrappers. An adult could eat forty dumplings, which was considered too much.

No matter how big his appetite is, a little boy in his teens would never be able to eat as many as fifty.

The reason why he reported such a number at this time may be because of the innocence of the child, and secondly because he has not eaten dumplings or meat for a long time.

Actually it's not just this little boy.

According to the speculations of Xu Yun, Li Jue and others.

It is estimated that many people will secretly pack some dumplings to take home tonight and eat them slowly in the next few days.

Today, the temperature in Jinyintan has been below freezing for a long time. If you find a cool place and make an ice pile, the dumplings may not go bad if left for a week.

However, Xu Yun did not have the urge to stop this thought. The reason why he had calculated the amount of meat before was to allow everyone to have a satisfying meal.

The so-called "cool" here naturally includes those situations where someone is secretly taken away.

Then Xu Luxi and other employees' family members placed the enamel basins on the table one by one, leaving room for operation on each table.

The pots that couldn't be placed were temporarily placed on the ground. Anyway, they were protected by transparent plastic films, so there was no need to worry too much about hygiene.

After completing these steps.

Xu Luxi and Wang Ganchang's wife Wu Yueqin consciously became the heads of the family members and started making dumplings according to the division of labor.

Among them, Xu Luxi is responsible for rolling out dumpling wrappers.

I don’t know if it is because of the experience accumulated from long-term anatomy work. When Xu Luxi rolled out the dumpling wrappers, his hands were as steady as if he were holding a scalpel:

I saw her holding a rolling pin in one hand, rolling it horizontally and vertically, and then turning the dough. In a blink of an eye, she had rolled out a large and even dumpling wrapper.

See this situation.

Wu Yueqin, who is more than twenty years older than her, suddenly had a flash of surprise in her eyes:

"Xiao Xu, you are so skilled at your craft that you often make dumplings by yourself?"

Different from the old friendship between Lu Guangda and Wang Ganchang, Wu Yueqin and Xu Luxi are not acquaintances, and they even have a big difference in "originality".

Wu Yueqin is an out-and-out rural woman. She was only 16 years old when she married Wang Ganchang.

As for Wang Ganchang?

13 years old.

That's right.

Wang Ganchang was only 13 years old when he got married.

Wang Ganchang was born in 1907 in a well-known family of traditional Chinese medicine in Zhitang Town, Changshu County, and his family had a relatively prosperous life.

Unfortunately.

He lost his father when he was 4 years old, and his mother when he was 9 years old.

The task of raising Wang Ganchang fell on the shoulders of his two brothers who were working outside. His grandmother always felt that there should be a woman in the family to take care of him, so she arranged a blind date for him.

As for the arranged marriage partner, it is Wu Yueqin, a girl from the neighboring village.

By the time Wang Ganchang was admitted to Shuimu University, he already had a daughter, Wang Huimin.

Then Wang Ganchang went to Germany to study. After returning to China, he and his wife came to Zhejiang University to teach at the invitation of President Zhu Kezhen.

Later, due to the situation of the Anti-Japanese War, Zhejiang University moved to the rear.

Wang Ganchang contracted tuberculosis during the trip, and his salary was suspended for several months. Life for the family of seven was very difficult.

At that time, it was because Wu Yueqin was cultivating vegetable fields on the barren slopes and raising a group of chickens and three dairy goats that the family's living expenses were guaranteed.

Therefore, for Wu Yueqin, making dumplings is a very skilled housewife skill.

The result was unexpected.

Xu Luxi, who was born in a scholarly family and should theoretically keep his fingers clean, could actually roll out dumpling wrappers so skillfully?

This was obviously beyond Wu Yueqin's expectations.

Hearing Wu Yueqin's surprised tone, Xu Luxi just gently pushed a strand of hair behind her ear and smiled faintly:

"Jiaxian Guangda likes dumplings very much. He said that during the years when he was studying abroad across the sea, what he wanted to eat the most was dumplings stuffed with pork and green onions."

"The first time he returned to China, he found a restaurant and ate as much as he could."

"A few years ago, he said he had something to do, and he stayed away for six months and a year. Although I don't know his specific mission, I guessed that it was related to the country."

"I majored in anatomy and couldn't help much in scientific research, so I found a master and learned the technique of hand-making dumplings from her."

"This way, when Guangda comes back next time, I can at least serve him a plate of steaming dumplings with my own hands. At least, I can share some of his pressure."

Say it.

Xu Luxi quickly wiped the corners of his eyes, ignoring the slight amount of flour around his eyes:

"...I said a little too much and made you laugh, Sister Wu."

Wu Yueqin did not laugh at Xu Luxi's thoughts at all, but stretched out her hand to hold Xu Luxi's hand.

This woman, whom she thought she didn't have much in common with before, now felt so close to her.

And not far away from them.

Xu Yun, who had noticed the two of them as soon as they appeared, guessed what they were seeing and sighed quietly.

When later generations mentioned the development of the atomic bomb by the Rabbits, Lu Guangda, Wang Ganchang, Lao Guo and others appeared almost 100% of the time.

They have been anonymous for decades, just to stand up for their motherland, and their sincerity can be seen from the sky.

But behind their backs.

The silent contributions of their families and loved ones cannot be ignored.

Just like the "rear area" in tactical terms, without a stable, supportive and understanding rear area, how can the front line build the Great Wall?

Such as Xu Luxi.

She and Lu Guangda were separated for twenty-eight years, during which they only met a few times.

The flowers bloomed and fell in front of the door, but she remained loyal and waited for that person without hesitation.

Unfortunately.

Lu Guangda returned to her in 1986, but at that time Lu Guangda was seriously ill due to nuclear radiation. He only spent a good year with Xu Luxi before he reluctantly left this world.

And Wu Yueqin beside her is also the strongest shield behind Wang Ganchang.

She does not have as much knowledge as Xu Luxi, but she practices her love for Wang Ganchang with simple actions.

In the years when Wang Ganchang used the pseudonym Wang Jing.

Wu Yueqin single-handedly raised five children and sent them all to university. She took on the responsibilities of both father and mother.

Throughout the 221 base.

There are still many supporters like Wu Yueqin and Xu Luxi.

They may not be considered "wonderful women" in terms of their life experiences, but they are more admirable than many people who are labeled as "wonderful women".

In addition, there is another very surprising thing about Wu Yueqin and Wang Ganchang.

One day in July 1997.

Wang Ganchang, who is 90 years old and lives in a Laogan building in Muxidi, went for a walk downstairs as usual.

Unexpectedly, he was knocked down by a young man riding a bicycle. After examination, the femur and tibia of his right leg were shattered.

Five months later.

The 94-year-old Wu Yueqin accidentally broke the femur and tibia of her right leg one night and died in July 1998.

Three months later.

Wang Ganchang finished his glorious life at the age of 91 and followed his beloved wife away.

The old-style feudal marriage brought these two people together, and they stayed together through thick and thin. They went through 78 years of arduous journey together. Even the final pain they suffered was coincidentally the right leg femur and tibia.

Is this God's will or a coincidence?

I'm afraid only God really knows.
