Chapter 41: The young lady studies medicine
Pang Yuqin also stopped, lowered his head, twisted the corners of his clothes, and said in a sad voice, "I want to ......, I want to study medicine with you!" β
Du Wenhaoqi said: "Study medicine with me? Make no mistake, right? You are an official lady, what do you do studying medicine? Do you want to sit in the hall and see people? β
Pang Yuqin shook her head.
"Then why do you want to study medicine?"
"Listen to me, my grandfather died of illness ......, he suffered a lot before he died, and he didn't get a good look at the illness after looking for a lot of doctors, and in the last year, my grandfather was in unbearable pain, and even asked my father to kill him with a knife, and my father cried and knelt down and kowtowed and said no. The doctors had nothing to do, and grandpa endured more than a year of pain before he died......"
Du Wenhao nodded: "Many diseases are very tormenting, if you can meet a good doctor, even if you can't cure it, you can find a way to alleviate the pain of the patient." β
"It's a pity that my grandfather didn't meet a good doctor like Mr. at that time."
"I'm nothing, you go on."
"Well, grandma used to have good eyes and deaf ears, but that time she was angry, and suddenly she couldn't see or hear clearly, and Dr. Qian didn't cure grandma's illness. This time, my aunt almost died because of an abscess, thanks to Dr. Du's treatment. So I was thinking, if only I had medical skills like Mr. Du, I would definitely be able to save my grandfather's life, at least not let him suffer so much, and my aunt would not suffer from this crime, and even be able to cure my grandmother's eyes and let my grandmother see again. β
"yes. If there were more skilled doctors, many people would not die of a minor illness. β
"Well, so ......, Yuqin wants to study medicine with Mr. ......, I don't know if it's okay?"
"Do you want to worship me as a teacher?"
"No, no! I'm not apprenticing, I'm asking you to teach me medical skills, but I'm not ...... apprentice! Pang Yuqin's face was so embarrassed that her face was hot, and she twisted and pinched and repeatedly emphasized that she was not an apprentice.
Du Wenhao was a little strange: "Hehe, let me teach you medical skills, and don't apprentice, hehehe, you plan to ......"
As soon as he said this, Du Wenhao stopped, and suddenly understood in his heart why Pang Yuqin didn't apprentice, because after apprenticeship, the two became masters and apprentices, and it would be impossible to get married in the future. However, she wants to study medicine, treat diseases and save people, and with the conditions of her family, it is easy to learn from a famous doctor, and there is no need to learn from an unknown young man. Now I am looking for myself to study medicine, obviously not only to study medicine, but also have other intentions, this intention is obvious, naturally I want to take the opportunity to study medicine with myself.
Pang Yuqin listened to Du Wenhao's words, and was shy, twisting her face and not daring to look at him. He said in a low voice: "There is one more thing to discuss with Mr. β
"Oh, what's the matter, just say?"
"My grandmother and my mother said that if Mr. agreed, they would like to pay for the 'Wuweitang' joint venture with the shopkeeper Lin to open the Wuweitang, and the two will operate together, the shopkeeper Lin is the big shopkeeper, and my grandmother and mother asked me to come to the Wuweitang as a ......, as the second shopkeeper...... and by the way, I studied medicine with Mr. If Mr. agrees that Mr. and I will study medicine, they will go to Mr. Lin to discuss the matter of the merger. β
Du Wenhao was a little surprised, although officials in the Song Dynasty could not directly do business, the family members of officials could do business, and many officials were unwilling to be corrupt and unwilling to abide by poverty, so they funded their families to do business and make money. Pang's mother and Liu's decision to invest in Wuweitang was obviously not for money, but because they were there, and they probably already knew the decision they told Pang County Lieutenant to "start a business first and then start a family", so they wanted to use this method to help themselves make money, and at the same time, let their daughter participate in management as a representative of the investor on the surface, and at the same time study medicine with herself, and take the opportunity to establish a relationship with herself, which is really well-intentioned. It seems that the Pang family really saw that they were a "potential stock", and decided to invest their capital and hold shares for a long time.
Du Wenhao arched his hand and said: "The girl wants to study medicine with me, of course there is no problem......
"Really? You promised? That's great! I thought about it, I want to learn women's medicine from my husband, and I will treat women in the future. Pang Yuqin was very happy and looked at him with bright eyes.
The ancient "female department" is the modern obstetrics and gynecology. Du Wenhao's heart moved, Pang Yuqin's words really made sense, if there was a female assistant, it would be easy to deal with this disease in obstetrics and gynecology. Smiled and nodded, and asked, "Studying medicine is very boring, can the girl stand it?" β
"I can endure hardship! I'm going to study hard! β
"Well, I can teach you women's medicine."
"Great! Thank you! β
"Hehe, but, the matter of the joint stock, you came by such a coincidence, just now the shopkeeper Lin and I agreed that I and the shopkeeper Lin will join hands to run the 'Wuweitang', I don't contribute, I use medical skills to buy shares, accounting for two dry shares. The old lady wants to invest in Wuweitang, of course I have no problem, and I welcome it, there is capital to develop. But you still have to discuss this matter with Shopkeeper Lin, she is the majority shareholder of the holding. β
Du Wenhao's words mixed with modern words Pang Yuqin didn't understand a little, but he roughly guessed the meaning, nodded and said, "Okay!" I'll tell my grandmother and mother in a while, and they'll go and discuss the merger with Shopkeeper Lin. β
At this moment, several horses galloped in the distance, and the hurried hooves of the horses clattered against the stone pavement of the street. The first one rode his horse and shouted, "Idler, get out of the way!" β
The horse came so fast, and in a blink of an eye, the people on horseback in the Song Dynasty were generally either soldiers or yamen errands, and they couldn't afford to provoke them. Du Wenhao hurriedly reached out and grabbed Pang Yuqin's arm and pulled her to avoid under the eaves on the side of the road.
Du Wenhao's action may be nothing in modern society, but this is the Song Dynasty, this is obviously too intimate, Pang Yuqin couldn't help but sigh, glanced at him, even felt scarlet in his neck, and hurriedly withdrew his hand.
Du Wenhao was also a little embarrassed, and was about to say something, when the horses had already rushed to the door of the Hengxiang Inn, and pulled the reins suddenly, the front hooves of the horses were raised, and there was a long neigh, and then they fell. The person on horseback turned over and was about to run to the inn, when he suddenly saw the two of them, he was slightly stunned, and then he walked over with joy, hugged his fists and said, "It turned out to be Mr. Du and Miss San." β
Du Wenhao fixed his eyes and saw that this person was Lei Tiebiao, the head of the county government, and there was a follower behind him who was Sun Xiaosan, and the rest were wearing black shirts, and the clothes were all fast-catching by the yamen, Du Wenhao hurriedly arched his hand and said: "It turned out to be Lei Catcher!" How's your arm? β
"After taking the medicine prescribed by my husband a few times, I already feel much better, and I don't have any pain before, so if I continue like this, it won't take long to fully recover." I was saying thank you for coming, but it just so happened that these two days have been very busy......"
"Hehe, you're welcome, just do it."
"Mr. Du and Third Miss are they going out?"
"No, no, our ......, that ......, Miss Pang came to invite me to see the illness of the second grandmother, and the old lady has something to say to me."
"Really?" Lei Catcher glanced at the two of them in a strange manner, the matter of the county lieutenant Pang giving his daughter to the new young doctor in Wuwei Hall has spread all over the city, and when he saw the two of them together, maybe he was having a tryst, and he was always a little embarrassed, and he was busy: "We have urgent business to see the county lieutenant, so let's go up together." - A few of you are waiting for my news below! β
The three of them entered the hall of the inn and went upstairs to the upper room. Before he could enter the room, he heard the cry of a heart-rending baby, the voice of a woman coaxing a child, and the sound of a whispering voice. Lei Zhutou was about to knock on the door, but Pang Yuqin pushed the door open first and said, "Mr. Du, Lei Zhutou, please come in." β
In the room, the nurse was holding the little master who was crying vigorously and coaxing in a circle in the room. The old lady and the others were sitting on the edge of the bed talking to the second grandmother Yu'er. Pang County Lieutenant sat on the Taishi chair with a relaxed expression and tasted tea, and from his expression, he knew that the condition of the second grandmother Yu'er should be developing in a good direction.
When Lieutenant Pang saw Du Wenhao, he showed a happy look on his face, but when he saw the sweaty Lei Zhutou, he was taken aback again, knowing that there was nothing particularly important, and Lei Zhutou would not be so nervous to come to report.
Obviously, things were really urgent, and Lei Zhutou didn't have time to be polite, so he took out a large envelope sealed with fire paint from his arms and handed it to Lieutenant Pang: "My lord, urgent official business!" β
Lieutenant Pang County hurriedly took the envelope, Lei Zhutou took out a knife, reversed the handle and handed it over, Lieutenant Pang took it, used the knife to open the fire paint seal, took out an official document, hurriedly read it, and said in a deep voice: "It is an urgent sea capture official document issued by the imperial court, a group of fallen grass thieves who robbed homes and houses were requisitioned by officers and soldiers, most of them were annihilated, and seven or eight thieves who escaped the net fled to the direction of our county, and the government asked us to be on strict guard. ββConvey the official's order, immediately convene the whole county to catch fast, gather the people, deploy defense, and from now on, the four gates will be guarded, and the people entering and leaving must be strictly checked! β
"Yes!" Lei Zhutou clenched his fists in agreement, turned around and hurried away.
