After Xu Xiaole practiced, he had no appetite. As for rice wine, he just drank a glass and chatted for entertainment.

This made Chen Mingyuan a little sad: I knew that this was the case, why spend so much money? Buy some peanuts and lentils!

Chen Mingyuan said a few nonsense, and then said: "Senior Brother Xiaole, now you know all the people in the shop, right?" ”

Xu Xiaole nodded. Regardless of whether he had spoken or not, the people who had met and knew the names were all in his head. Sometimes he was a little scared of his super memory, what if his mind was full.

Chen Mingyuan said: "You know Lu Zhiyuan, that guy chews his tongue behind his back all day long, saying bad things about Mr. Li." ”

Xu Xiaole said curiously: "What bad things do you say?" ”

Chen Mingyuan took some of what Lu Zhiyuan said and told Xu Xiaole, which is nothing more than saying that Li Xiqiang is a traveling doctor in the rivers and lakes, but in fact, he has no medical skills, and he is completely a liar.

Xu Xiaole smiled when he heard it: This Lu Zhiyuan is well-informed, and he is not a bad word.

Chen Mingyuan thought that Xu Xiaole was sneering, and he didn't doubt him, but he just said loyally: "This kind of person is really hateful." But Xiaole, you still have to remind Mr. to be careful: he is the nephew of a housekeeper in the second room of the Gu family, and it is said that our owner is also dissatisfied with Mr. and the shopkeeper, and he wants to change people. ”

Xu Xiaole doesn't care about this.

The purpose of his visit to Changchun Hall was to practice his medical skills and study pharmacy. Now that the stepping stone of pharmacy has been established, Master Lu is a very reliable person and is happy to pass on knowledge and experience. Even if the proprietor of Changchun Hall drove away Gu Xuan and Li Xiqiang, Master Lu would definitely be willing to teach him his skills.

As for Li Xiqiang's side, Xu Xiaole felt that he had given him a big benefit, and it was up to him how far he could go. As a quack, he has nowhere to cry out if he is really driven away by the owner.

Gu Xuan is even more out of Xu Xiaole's consideration, having such a relative who is drunk and dreams all day long, and spends all day drinking, is purely the Gu family's own bad luck.

Chen Mingyuan said again: "Xiaole, I think that the owner will not say that he will change people, he always has to find some excuses." What do you think ......?"

Xu Xiaole interrupted Chen Mingyuan's words: "I don't think this matter has anything to do with us. Let's just endorse it well and learn our skills well, so why bother to get involved in those messy things. At that time, even if the owner tells me to get out of here and leave, I have my own ability, what is there to worry about? ”

Chen Mingyuan suddenly felt that he and Xu Xiaole couldn't pee in a pit at all. Obviously, Xu Xiaole is several years younger than him, but people talk like adults, and there is no room for argument. This completely shattered his idea of wooing Xu Xiaole to become an ally, and made Xu Xiaole look down on him.

Xu Xiaole has only had one good friend from Luo Yun since he was a child, and there is a reason for this: he is not a person who likes to make friends. Chen Mingyuan put on a posture of being willing to make friends with him, but in Xu Xiaole's eyes, he was a burden. Not to mention that this person's foundation in medicine and pharmacy is very scummy, and even the pattern of looking at problems is so small, how can he play happily?

Xu Xiaole saw that the atmosphere was cold, and he didn't want to talk to Chen Mingyuan anymore, so he pretended to stretch his waist, as if he couldn't wait to go to bed.

Chen Mingyuan's face turned red and he had no choice but to retire.

……

Early the next morning, Xu Xiaole went to the side courtyard canteen early to have breakfast, and then went straight to the backyard medicine store.

Who knew that Master Lu had already done a lot of work earlier. When he saw Xu Xiaole coming, he took out a few codonopsis plants without saying a word, and asked Xiaole to distinguish the origin and year, and state the advantages and disadvantages.

This is all what I said yesterday, of course Xu Xiaole will not forget it, but blames this exam for being too easy and simple.

Pharmacist Lu tried a few more sets of other medicinal herbs and was very satisfied with Xu Xiaole. He has already seen that Xu Xiaole has an excellent memory, and these memory problems may not be difficult for him.

"Pharmacy is not as important as medicine, also because pharmacy is actually a craft." Pharmacist Lu took Xu Xiaole to the backyard, and while explaining various pharmaceutical tools to him, he said: "These things, if you meet someone with a better brain, and you are willing to do it step by step according to the old rules, you can always do it well." You are extremely talented, and the key is steadfastness and conscience. ”

Xu Xiaole nodded and said, "Medicine is about human life, and it should be so." My uncle was also very helpless that day: now the medicinal materials in many pharmacies are cutting corners and cannot be used. ”

Pharmacist Lu said strangely: "Your uncle? ”

Xu Xiaole smiled: "It's my master's uncle, I used to study medicine with him." ”

Yao Shi Lu had a look of sudden realization, and said secretly in his heart: How can your master be a person who is out of tune at first glance, how can he teach a good apprentice. It turns out that this kid learned from the older generation, no wonder.

Pharmacist Lu said again: "Down-to-earth, I think you can do it." As for conscience...... I'll show you something. After that, he went to the warehouse and took out two packets of medicinal herbs, opened them in the courtyard, and said, "Look at this." ”

Xu Xiaole untied the thin hemp rope wrapped in medicinal herbs, and asked suspiciously: "This is a loquat leaf?" ”

Pharmacist Lu nodded: "Loquat leaves are also one of the most commonly used medicinal materials. You see what's different about these. ”

Xu Xiaole reached out and took some, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it, frowning slightly: "The smell is not right." How does it smell of rotting leaves? ”

Pharmacist Lu's eyes sharpened, and he said, "This is inferior medicine!" ”

Xu Xiaole said blankly: "Master Lu showed me these ......"

Pharmacist Lu said: "The reason why these inferior medicines will be accepted is only because the people who bought the medicine under the shopkeeper Gu took kickbacks and were shoddy. I can't stand this, I always have to make it clear to Shopkeeper Gu, but as long as I am in Changchun Hall for a day, this inferior medicine will not be sold to him. If he tells me to leave, I'll have to rely on young people like you in the future—no bad medicine can be sold anyway. ”

Xu Xiaole's mood became heavy. He was about to make a statement, when he suddenly heard Chen Mingyuan shouting outside: "It's not a big deal!" Someone is knocking on the door, Xiaole should hide! ”
