To Your Island - Chapter 49
The next day, Wang Jiexiang and Yin Xian both asked for leave from their work unit.
He accompanied her to the ophthalmology department of the hospital for registration and a detailed eye examination.
The final diagnosis was that it was temporary night blindness.
No family genetic history, no pathological changes in retinal rod cells, acquired lack of vitamin A, a balanced diet is recommended, and vitamin A supplementation is recommended.
After listening to the doctor’s condition analysis, Wang Jiexiang finally had a smile on his face.
Walking out of the hospital holding Yin Xian’s arm, she raised her head and smiled brightly at him: “Haha, I’m fine.”
“It’s too early to be happy,” Yin Xian said, messing with her forehead, “I want to add vitamins.”
Rarely, none of them went to work, so they went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables on the way home.
Yin Xian saw the vendor selling yellow croaker and asked Wang Jiexiang if he wanted to eat it.
She shook her head and whispered in his ear: “I can bring seafood back, don’t buy it.”
For seafood, Wang Jiexiang only eats poor-quality seafood picked out from the factory because it is free.
They walked a few steps and saw the pork stall.
“I’m going to buy some meat and stew in carrot and rib soup tonight.”
Just as Yin Xian was about to take a step, Wang Jiexiang stopped him: “I have eaten meat not long ago. You can’t eat meat this month.”
Meat is expensive. She counts and controls the number of times they buy meat in a month.
“So, without meat, what do you want to eat?”
“Scrambled eggs, vinegared cabbage…”
He interrupted her: “No wonder the doctor said you don’t have a balanced diet.”
If this continues, they still buy the usual ingredients, and Yin Xian deprives Wang Jiexiang of the right to choose vegetables.
He dragged her to the pork stall and bought spare ribs and pork liver from the boss. He returned to the previous seafood stall and bought a beautiful and lively yellow croaker.
Wang Jiexiang told Yin Xian not to buy it, so he went to the vegetable stall again with a handful of greens and a big bag of carrots.
Yin Xian carried his hands full and was quite satisfied with his shopping results.
——Someday they have eaten so richly, which is a waste of money.
She took a light bag with an angry expression: “You will be happy if you sing against me, right?”
He stared at her and nodded: “That’s right.”
Since Wang Jiexiang was diagnosed with night blindness, Yin Xian would always pick her up at the village in the city at the end of the night.
Because of this disease, one day she made a joke again.
Wang Jiexiang mistakenly identified it as a rabbit in a plastic bag that others left in the grass.
Before Yin Xian regarded the baby fish as a mouse, he could remember how long she had been laughing at him. This time it was her turn to look at her, and Yin Xian naturally made a joke on her.
Wang Jiexiang, who especially likes rabbits, became angry with him and didn’t talk to him all night.
The next day, Yin Xian mentioned to her: “Raise a rabbit.”
Unexpectedly, Wang Jiexiang disagreed.
She said they had no money and time to raise a rabbit.
She made sense.
Yin Xian can spend money to improve one or two meals for the family, but that still cannot change the fact that they are poor.
Their salary at this level is only enough for daily expenses in big cities.
The doctor suggested supplementing vitamin A in diet therapy, but Wang Jiexiang didn’t like radish. Even if it was just adding some carrots to the soup, she ate a sad face. Yin Xian wanted to buy a juicer. Wang Jiexiang liked to drink juice. She might accept carrot juice.
He went to the supermarket to see a suitable juicer, and then checked its price, he left dingy.
——No money, no money.
Recently, Yin Xian began to think more and more frequently: Should I change a job?
The purpose of insurance is to learn sales skills and provide experience for future business. He had no intention of staying in this business for a long time.
In recent months, the business has not been well done, and his salary is pitifully small. Maintaining customers and getting to know new customers requires him to invest money to give gifts and accompany others to socialize.
Wang Jiexiang had not discussed with him about the future path, and Yin Xian had not taken the initiative to tell her his thoughts.
She goes to the seafood factory every day to do physical work. She is not afraid of poverty and hardship; if she loves to drink enough water, it seems that everything will be fine if she is with him.
However, Yin Xian couldn’t stop the anxiety, the money came too slowly.
Have you achieved proficiency in the social skills you have trained over the years? Should I try another environment?
The thought of changing jobs lingers in her heart, Yin Xian can’t sleep at night, and suffers from insomnia.
In the middle of the night, Wang Jiexiang turned over and the bed next to him was cold.
She opened her eyes in a daze, sat up and turned on the bedside lamp.
The door of the house opened. She walked over barefoot and saw Yin Xian squatting outside with a cigarette in her hand.
There is an indescribable sense of loneliness from his back.
He held his head with one hand and a cigarette in the other. The smoke was burning, but he did not smoke.
Is Yin Xian staring at something opposite? In Wang Jiexiang’s eyes, there was nothing but meaningless darkness, and she couldn’t see anything.
She looked at him quietly, it was hard to describe her feelings.
It seems that because of his loneliness, she can’t help being alone.
She didn’t know that he smoked, as if she never knew why he hated the hospital so much.
She didn’t know what he was worrying about, or if she could help him.
Yin Xian never asks her for help.
They stay together every day, have a lot of time, and can say countless words.
Even if she could see that he was tired, he never talked to her. Is his character so? Or is she not the right person to talk to? He never said love, missed, troubles, tired… let alone ask for help.
There was a strange low in his heart, Wang Jiexiang turned around and walked back to the bed.
Halfway down, she suddenly repented.
The footsteps deliberately made a sound on the floor, she set aside time to reach the door slowly.
Pretending to be just awake, Wang Jiexiang yawned and opened the door.
Yin Xian’s smoke has been pinched.
“Why did you wake up?” he asked.
Her voice was vague: “You woke up without you.”
“Just went out and went to the toilet.”
Yin Xian smiled at her.
“Come in, it’s cold outside.”
The two lay back on the bed and he turned off the lights.
Wang Jiexiang turned around and turned his back to him. After waiting for a while, making sure that Yin Xian did not intend to talk to her, she also dispelled the idea of asking him.
“Hug me,” she said to him.
Yin Xian rolled over and hugged her waist.
Wang Jiexiang grabbed his hand.
——How long has the wind been blowing, my hands are so cold.
She closed her eyes and tried her best to heat him up.
…
On the date of this month’s pay, Yin Xian took a juicer home.
He said that it was the juicer in the unit, which was left unused for half a year. The leader asked him if he wanted it, and he took it back.
Wang Jiexiang was happy from ear to ear.
“No one uses such a good juicer!”
With the words “violent things” written on her face, she welcomed them into the house very happily.
After all, it used to be a public item. Wang Jiexiang used a lot of detergent to clean it inside and out, using a cloth to polish it to reflect light.
While wiping her, she sighed: “No one really uses it, the juicer is so clean.”
Yin Xian took a few radishes at home and taught her how to juice with a juicer.
The first cup of carrot juice was made, and he handed her the cup.
Wang Jiexiang gave face to face, raised his head and drank it all.
“Wow—” She stuck her tongue out, her face wrinkled.
“Why is this expression?” Yin Xian frowned and asked, “Isn’t it delicious?”
She honestly said: “It’s not the taste I like.”
Diligently washing the carrot residues in the cup, Wang Jiexiang did not lose interest in the juicer.
“Well, let’s squeeze something else.”
“No, you have to drink carrot juice.”
Yin Xian grabbed her cup, pressed the start button, and continued to put carrots into the machine.
“why?”
Wang Jiexiang looked at the cup unwillingly.
The carrot was crushed by khaka, and a small half cup was filled in an instant.
“This machine can only squeeze carrots.” Yin Xian lied without changing his face.
Wang Jiexiang looked at the juicer and suddenly turned into disgust.
“…It’s so broken, no wonder no one in your unit uses it.”
that’s it.
Squeezing carrot juice has become a regular event that Yin Xian must do every day.
At first, he used means to force Wang Jiexiang to drink.
For example, verbal threats: if you don’t drink, you won’t sleep together today; if you don’t drink, you won’t talk to you today; if you don’t drink, you won’t pick you up today…
For example, physical temptation: you drink and hug me today, I will not push you away; you can sleep with my arm pillow tonight; if you drink, you will kiss you…
Threats with words, not ruthless enough, may arouse Wang Jiexiang’s rebellious psychology.
She couldn’t help but the carrot juice finally entered his mouth.
Physical temptation, this one works well, almost never missed it.
The only difficult thing is that over time, Wang Jiexiang will begin to bargain with Yin Xian, asking for more and more excessive benefits.
Yin Xian is the kind of person who has discussed with her, he is thinking about how to deal with her.
One day Wang Jiexiang refused to drink carrot juice, unless Yin Xian called her “heart and liver baby” all day long.
He did not promise her terms.
Wang Jiexiang covered her mouth with her hands and threatened to “broken carrot juice”.
“Since you are so determined, don’t drink if you don’t.”
He smiled faintly, and went out of the house holding the juicer.
When facing her, he poured all the squeezed carrot juice into the ditch in front of the door.
“you you.”
Wang Jiexiang pointed at him, fingers trembling: “Carrots are bought with money, and the juicer consumes electricity again! How expensive is our electricity bill every month! You are too wasteful!”
Yin Xian shrugged: “If you don’t drink, what can I do?”
“…”
She solemnly warned him: “Don’t take this as an example, don’t squeeze tomorrow!”
The next day, Yin Xian woke up early as usual.
Woke up by the smashing of carrots, Wang Jiexiang said to him badly.
“You know I don’t drink, right, you squeezed to drink.”
Pressing the power button, Yin Xian only answered her one word.
“Oh.”
She watched him pick up the juicer and walked out of the house again.
Desperate Yin Xian!
“Don’t fall!”
Wang Jiexiang screamed to stop him: “Where is my cup? I want to drink it!”
“Okay, drink it.”
The devil Yin Xian quickly filled her with a whole glass of carrot juice.
“Not enough.”
Successfully tried out the way to get Wang Jiexiang to take vitamin A obediently, and Yin Xian saved a lot of things every day.
Don’t tell me, this carrot juice, Wang Jiexiang was not used to drinking it at first, but later she accepted the taste, and the more she drank, the more she liked it.
Not only did she drink it in the morning, she had to install a thermos at work and take it to the factory to drink.
The colleague asked her what she was drinking so happy.
Wang Jiexiang replied: “Delicious carrot juice, my boyfriend squeezed it himself.”
