Chapter 17: Apprenticeship

"No thanks, I just happen to know about your illness."

"What is she?" Lang Zhong couldn't wait to ask, he has practiced medicine for many years, and he has also encountered a lot of incurable diseases, it is not difficult to say that it is difficult to say like today, but it is not easy to say.

"She has a gastrointestinal problem, and it is useless to prescribe painkillers, she must dredge it, and she will be fine after it is cleared."

"Don't eat spicy and stimulating things in the next few days, drink more porridge, and have a light nourishment."

"Don't take the medicine?"

"You can also prescribe two doses of nourishing medicine if you need it, but it's about the same."

After thanking them a few more times, the couple asked about the medical fee.

"No, I just met, there aren't many of them, and I haven't done anything."

"That's embarrassing."

"I really don't need to, if you have a lot of money, buy some delicious food to replenish your body."

After the couple left, the boss had a slight smile on his face and asked Shen Wan'er, "Will you check the pulse?" ”

Shen Wan'er shook her head, then nodded again.

"Will it or won't?"

"It's a little bit of a good thing, but it can't be said to be a special one, I learned a little when I was a child, and I didn't have more."

"But I see that the acupuncture points you applied just now are very accurate, and it doesn't look like you haven't learned it."

"I have an acupuncture point book at home, and I follow it."

The boss was surprised, "You can learn so accurately just by reading a book, girl, you are really not simple." ”

Shen Wan'er pursed her lips and smiled embarrassedly, she actually knows a lot, but there are not so many Shen Wan'er in this world, so she can only make up some such and such words to fool the past.

Fortunately, there were no major loopholes in what she said, and the boss didn't seem to be suspicious.

"The girl's talent is very good, if you don't mind, come and be my apprentice, I will slowly teach you, and make you the best doctor in the neighborhood, but I don't know if the girl is willing."

Shen Wan'er's eyes lit up, "Of course I do, Master!" ”

Liu Chunhua didn't expect it, it was just that she came out to sell medicinal materials in the pharmacy, and when she went back, Shen Wan'er had an extra master.

"I think everything today is arranged by God, God first let us dig up the relatively expensive gastrodia, and then let me apprentice after making some money, and then I may not be able to go to the mountains with you to dig medicinal herbs often during this time, but don't worry, with this money, I can last for a while."

"Anyway, I've made a lot of money during this time, and I never thought I would have so much silver in my hand before."

Seeing that there was no one around, Shen Wan'er and Liu Chunhua divided the money, Shen Wan'er relied on Liu Chunhua to settle accounts slowly, and would give her a little more silver every time, and this time was no exception, and she took more than usual.

Liu Chunhua did not doubt him, and put the silver in her purse, "I sold it for so much money today!" ”

"Yes, it has sold a lot, and gastrodia is worth a little more."

The little sisters happily returned to Peony Village, at this time it was past the time to eat, and there was no one in the field, but when they passed by Lizheng's house, Lin didn't know when he stood at the door.

"Yo, you two went to town, why did you come back at this time? It's past lunch time, the basket is empty, and I went to the mountains to dig up those wild vegetables or something, how much are these worth? It's better to wash other people's clothes at home, and you can still make some money. ”

She didn't hear anything bad about her words on the surface, but the tone of her speech was very bitter and mean, and it made people feel uncomfortable listening to it.

Liu Chunhua is not a person who likes to quarrel with people, so she only frowned slightly, and she didn't intend to deal with her.

This man stopped them on the way a few days ago, and he said some unpleasant things like he did now, but not as explicit as he did today.

"We don't go up to the mountains to dig wild vegetables, there are so many treasures in the mountains, don't think others can't find them if you can't find them."

Shen Wan'er's impression of Lin Yue'er's mother and daughter is not very good, but compared to Lin Yue'er, who can also act a little, the Lin family's dislike for them is even more undisguised.

After saying this, Shen Wan'er hurriedly pulled Liu Chunhua away.

"I said why is my stomach so hungry, it turns out that it is past dinner, Chunhua, let's go home quickly, I really want to drink a bowl of cold porridge, and then lie on the bed and take a nap."

Lin was so angry that he jumped to his feet, and he was so angry that he couldn't speak behind Shen Wan'er and Liu Chunhua.

"Little shameless!" She gritted her teeth and scolded, but Shen Wan'er had already walked away and couldn't hear this sentence at all.

Shen Da and Shen Zhao'er were very surprised when they learned that Shen Wan'er would go to the town every day, and he was also happy when he learned that Shen Wan'er would go to the town every day, without Shen Wan'er supervising his work at home, he would be able to relax a lot.

Shen Zhao'er was also happy for Shen Wan'er, "Great, so that you can learn a craft, and even if there is any accident in the future, you won't starve to death." ”

The two sisters glanced at Shen Da together, and let Shen Da, who was still a little silly on the side, touch his nose and was a little confused.

"What are you sisters doing, what do you see me doing?"

"That's too, I have to go to the town every day in the future, and things at home will trouble you, especially if you have to watch your father a little, you have to let him do all the work that should be done, if you don't do it, you won't have anything to eat!"

"Then you run to the town every day, don't you don't cook the food at home?" Shen Da still prefers to eat the food cooked by Shen Wan'er.

"Not necessarily, let's see if there's anything going on over there, if you're not busy, maybe you'll come back at noon, it's impossible to say."

"Where is your master? I'm going to talk to him and ask you to come back every day at noon and cook for us. ”

"Don't you know how to cook yourself, you can cook it yourself at home."

Shen Da pursed his lips, "I know, you still try to come back as often as possible, if you can't come back, forget it." ”

What nodded with satisfaction in his heart, Shen Da finally changed a little, although it was still a little lazy.

But it's not like before, change is a good thing, as long as it takes a long time, she is confident that she can completely break Shen Da.

It was already dark, and after Shen Wan'er washed her hair and took a bath, she moved a stool to blow her hair in the yard, and the stars were exceptionally bright tonight, indicating that tomorrow would definitely be a sunny day.

"It's so nice to blow in the wind at night." When Shen Wan'er's hair was half-dry, Shen Zhao'er also washed it out, she rubbed her hair with a handkerchief, and sat next to Shen Wan'er.

"It smells so good." She sighed, "I've never used something so fragrant before, it smells faint and smells so good." ”

"It's a pity that it's summer, and if you go to the field, you'll be sweating soon."

At this time, in fact, Shen Zhao'er didn't have too much time to go to the ground, but he couldn't stand the hot weather, so it would only be a little cooler to go to work in the geography before dawn in the morning.

"When I came back today, I met Lin Yue'er and her mother again, and she looked down on me for often going to the mountains to find herbs." Shen Wan'er looked at the sky and quietly gave Shen Zhao'er eye medicine.

"I can feel that their mother and daughter look down on us a little, our family used to be very poor, but now it is much better than before, and it will definitely get better and better in the future, but they seem to be unaccustomed to it, they stab a few words at every turn, and we don't use their money, sister, you say yes?"

"Sister Yue'er's mother is that kind of character, and when she sees many people, she will say a few unpleasant words, don't take it to heart."

"Alas, those medicinal herbs in our field can be sold for money when they are ripe, and they will definitely be more profitable than growing vegetables."

Shen Zhao'er didn't know what to say for a while, she remembered that a month ago, the Lin family said that they didn't grow vegetables in the field, and they planted some messy things, and they would definitely be hungry in the future.

She was also a little suspicious at that time, but she couldn't stand her sister's strength, so she still planted it, and now seeing that her family is getting better and better, she believes more and more that there is a reason why Shen Wan'er did what she did in the first place.

"I'll officially study medicine in the future, and I've heard that those medical skills are amazing." Shen Wan'er exhaled softly, her voice was brisk, "And I also heard that they can match that kind of ointment that makes people's skin whiter, I thought, my sister is still very beautiful, if the skin becomes whiter, there will definitely be a lot of boys who like it, and then my sister can slowly look at others!" ”

"You ......" Shen Zhao'er heard what she said, and she didn't know what to do for a while, her nose was sore, and her eyes were full of tears.

Although she never said it, in fact, she has always cared about her dark skin, originally the skin of the countryman is not much whiter, but she has darker skin than some boys, and some people laugh at her behind her back, she knows it.

After so many years, she has also tried one or two local methods, but it is useless, she is already desperate, and now Shen Wan'er told her. There is still some hope.

"Sister, don't worry, I will definitely study hard." Shen Wan'er smiled at her, pretending not to see the tears in Shen Zhao'er's eyes, "After I finish learning, I'll give you that whitening ointment, but my dad will have to bother my sister to take care of it more, if something happens to my dad again, I will definitely not be able to concentrate on studying, and the whitening ointment will not be so fast at that time, so sister, you must watch Dad!" ”

"Don't worry!" Shen Zhao'er was full of fighting spirit, and her face was firm, "I will definitely take a good look at my father, never let him go out to gamble, and let him do more work at home!" ”

Shen Wan'er smiled brightly, "That's right, we're a family, we should make progress together, sister, don't you say?" ”
