The reason why the university internship chooses to go to other places is to yearn for the freedom there.

This is how I chose Xiangyang Ancient City as my internship site, and I only have a relationship with her in this life. Twenty-nine years ago, our Wuhan Metallurgy Medical College went to the First People's Hospital of Xiangfan City for an internship. Eighteen students came from Class One, Class Two and Class Three. Xiangyang County Hospital also had an internship team of 8 people, and there were 26 people in Xiangfan City.

When we beat gongs and drums to bid farewell to the students who went to other internship teams, the drums and drums were not filled with joy, but with deep emotional tears. I stood in the school bus and watched the familiar students go away, with tears in my eyes. Yan Wei also came to see me off. When he saw me, he said that he was very sad. I was not the only one who felt this way. In order not to let my classmates see my tears, I got off the bus before I could say goodbye to my classmates, holding a big tree behind the car and tears welled up in my eyes. When the car drove away, Liu Shangjun found me leaning against the tree alone. He understood something and helped me back to the dormitory.

On that day, we sent off a batch of students who were practicing, crying again and again. We were the last internship team to leave the school. In the end, no one sent us away, so we had to pack our bags and go to the internship site ourselves.

Mr. Zhou Yezheng is the first teacher in our Xiangfan practice site. He took Jiang Xiaoping and me to the Xiangfan advance party first. Xiangfan is 3 kilometers away from Wuhan. At that time, it will take six hours by train. The three of us came to Xiangfan at night. Teacher Zhou is paid. He invited Xiaoping and I to have a midnight snack and ordered a fish. The fish was cut into pieces and served well. Teacher Zhou found that there were not many fish, so he reminded us that the fish must have been stolen by the chef. From then on, I knew that when ordering fish in the restaurant, I must make whole fish.

Our task of stepping on the spot was completed, and Teacher Zhou took us to Gulongzhong, Zhuge Liang's former residence. There are few tourists in Gulong in winter, and the warm setting sun shines on the ancient archway, as if we were covered with a golden coat.

Mr. Zhou, a native of Hunan, graduated from Suzhou Medical College. He has been assigned to our school for a short time to engage in neurology. He didn't give us a class, and he only met him during the internship. I haven't seen him since the internship. I wonder where he is now?

Is our internship team huge? There are more than twenty people!

At that time, the name of the city was Xiangfan, which was a word for Xiangyang and a word for Fancheng. Now it is called Xiangyang City. In ancient times, there was a saying that "Xiangyang is made of iron and Fancheng is made of paper".

It was the Spring Festival in 1988, and students who were interns in Xiangyang County Hospital also came to the First People's Hospital of Xiangfan City to get together with us. The school is also very concerned about our internship students. In order to worry about our homesickness, we also prepared a new year's goods for each of us. President Hu of the school transported it in a small car to express his condolences to the interns on behalf of the school. Everyone felt so warm!

Interns can't go home for the Spring Festival. It is our common wish to have a good Spring Festival abroad. Zhao Mingguo and I borrowed bicycles and went to the vegetable market to buy new year's goods. We kept the bought live chickens in an empty room in the dormitory building. After two days, we found that one was missing. It is estimated that the window broke a piece of glass and flew away. The number of chickens is wrong, and Zhao Mingguo and I can't wash it when we jump into the Yellow River.

On New Year's Day, we were busy all day. Everyone took turns to cook, and according to the custom in the north, we asked for the whole chicken and fish. Finally, we had a delicious New Year's Eve dinner made by ourselves.

it's snowing! The snow in Xiangfan is different from the snow in the north, and it is not as scattered as the snow in the south. Xiangfan is between the north and the south, and the snow in Xiangfan is as long as the rain in the south!

let's have a snowball fight! The wide moat under Xiangyang city wall is our best battlefield. Xiangyang moat is 15 meters wide, which is the widest moat in all ancient cities in China, and it is "made of iron", while Fancheng is called "papery Fancheng" without moat. Before we could say that the war had been declared, the two teams that had been originally divided were in a mess, regardless of each other. The two female students who were hit the most by snowballs were Yongxian and Bingbing. Do all male students bully female students? No, that's an expression of love. At that time, there was no soil for boys and girls to breed love. Snowballs were thrown at the goddess like hydrangeas!

At that time, the school required that internship teams should not be connected in series. Duan Guang, a reporter from the Grade 86 school newspaper, came to our internship site for an interview. He also wanted to interview the Nanzhang County internship team by the way, so I took a lift to accompany him to Nanzhang, which is to go to other teams for some air.

Sang Xiguang is the captain of the internship in Nanzhang. He warmly received us and accompanied us to visit a reservoir with beautiful scenery. He pointed to the distant mountains and told me that those mountains are connected with Shennongjia. Since then, I have been longing for Shennongjia. Sang Xiguang is now an orthopedic expert in Qilu Hospital. A few days ago, the steel bar that sensationalized the whole country ran through the perineum, and he organized the rescue of the injured. Can you recognize the other classmate standing under the microwave tower? He is Xu Yushun from Hunan!

He is the youngest student in our internship team and a problem child. Ming Guo and I called him "Rao", and something often happened. We went to help him make amends.

I once crustily skin of head pleaded for him and went to see a surgeon, Dr. Nie (the legendary big uncle, he didn't think much of me, and now I remember his eyes and cold face). In order to spare me and Ming Guo, we have to worry about it! Who told him that he was our brother? Rao was kind-hearted and willing to do anything for his classmates. Later, the three of us became good friends and occasionally drank a little wine. At that time, it was already very out of line.

When spring comes, everyone wants to travel. The school and the internship hospital were very uneasy about our trip. After coordination and communication with the hospital and the school, we were finally allowed to visit Wudang Mountain.

In those days, we traveled to Wudang Mountain by escaping train tickets. A family member of a hospitalized patient was a train driver, and he took us to the station. In the afternoon, we arrived at Wudang Mountain and visited the Hanging Temple. I also found the scene in the movie Wudang Sword, which gave up my wish. When we climbed to Jinding, the main peak, the sky gradually darkened, and the steps of Wudang Mountain were steep and long, and we almost gave up. At this time, we saw an old lady about 7 years old. She was thin, panting and carrying incense. She climbed very devoutly. She almost walked with us. Her behavior inspired us to climb to the top. The next morning, we finally saw the gorgeous sunrise in Jinding, and our bodies were warm at the moment when the sun jumped out!

March 12th is the National Arbor Day. We came to Lovers Slope to plant trees with the Youth League Committee of the hospital.

Let Xiaoshu witness our growth in Xiangyang, and people will grow up to witness our youth when they leave the tree in the future. Ma Zhiqiang on the left raised his right hand and vowed to take root in Xiangfan. We held a pickaxe in both hands to show that we could take root in Xiangyang. Later, only Yan Wei took root in Xiangyang, that is, the classmate in the middle with picks in his hands. He really stayed because he exerted the greatest strength.

The second intern teacher, surnamed Zhou, is the third from the left in the front row. He is a teacher in obstetrics and gynecology, and his wife lives in Xiangfan.

At that time, the internship was almost over, and the last photo was taken in front of the new clinic building at that time. A few years ago, I revisited my old place just after we left for 25 years. The whole hospital has changed its old look, and I vaguely remember that only this outpatient building and canteen still exist. At that time, many teachers and doctors who taught us had retired, and several of our classmates were becoming the main force in the hospital.

After the internship, the students returned to school, and each of them became close friends with the classmates in the previous class. The internship team was also a life post for people to stay in the tea and cool down. Anyway, we are still partners who have eaten in the same pot.

29 years later, I remember brother Wenbo said: Where to spend a Spring Festival is your hometown. We spent a Spring Festival in Xiangfan, so we will always regard her as our second hometown!

It was a youthful day and a depressing day!

It's both an impulsive day and a contradictory day!

It is a closed day and an open day!

I will always remember: Xiangyang made of iron.
