Chapter 32: Apprenticeship
After breakfast, Doctor Du didn't mention seeing Cui Ranxin, but casually flipped through the herbs.
Cui Jiu'an began to fidget, so he spoke first: "I also asked the divine doctor to treat my sister, Jiu'an was grateful, and he responded to his request." ”
"Really? He said that everything is requested, and you can be a witness, little Wanzi. Doctor Du suddenly threw a handful of cinnamon in his hand into the medicine store, and danced with his hands to pull Dr. Wan as a witness.
"A gentleman's word, the horse is difficult to chase." Cui Jiuan nodded firmly.
"That's good, you worship me as a teacher, stay in this mountain and stay with me for ten years." As soon as Doctor Du said this, the other three were stunned, and even Dr. Wan gasped.
"This is not good, the others are easy to say." Cui Jiuan refused without hesitation.
"You stinky boy, you just say a gentleman's word, and the horse is hard to chase." Doctor Du was so angry that his eyes widened.
"I didn't say that I was a gentleman, and I asked the doctor to change my request, this is too embarrassing for me, there is an old mother at home, my father is away all the year round, and my grandmother's health is not as good as a year-" Cui Jiu'an's face did not change, and Cui Ranxin, who was standing next to him, looked at Cui Jiu'an like this and almost lost his big teeth, or her fairy-like second brother?
"Okay, for the sake of your filial piety, then change one, worship me as a teacher, and accompany me for six years." Doctor Du said seriously.
"Aren't you changing the soup and not the medicine? Besides, it is the duty of a doctor to cure the sick and save people, how can he make it difficult for others? Cui Jiu'an finally knew why Cang Shi angrily called him Lao Immortal when he mentioned him.
"That's right, so it's my mission to find a successor to inherit my unique learning, so you say you don't agree? There is a lot of nonsense at a young age, and he talks more than Xiao Wanzi. Doctor Du was not angry this time, and just sat on a stool made of wooden stakes.
And Dr. Wan next to him was completely immersed in the wonder of the medical book, every good prescription in it was from the hand of this miracle doctor, and Dr. Wan couldn't help but be attracted by the subtlety of the dispensing and secretly amazed.
"Three years! You heal Xin'er now. Cui Jiuan stretched out three fingers and reluctantly agreed.
"If you can master all the essentials in three years, it's to go or stay." Doctor Du agreed.
"It's still the same gentleman's words, it's hard to chase a horse." Cui Jiuan made a gesture to high-five Doctor Du.
"Stinky boy, don't be a gentleman, dare to be careful, I won't let you walk on the sidewalk." Doctor Du stretched out his hand to meet him.
Cui Jiuan's face darkened when he heard this, and he scolded in his heart: "What an old horseman." ”
"Smack-" The two palms slammed into the air.
"Second brother, I also want to worship Doctor Du as a teacher." Cui Ranxin pulled Cui Jiuan's sleeve and let him see his expectations.
"Xin'er said that she also wants to worship you as a teacher." Choi Jiuan conveys the girl's expectations.
"Ahem, cough, cough - the heirs of my Du family are not very refined, and your qualifications will be a little difficult to study medicine." Doctor Du said to Cui Ranxin seriously.
Cui Ranxin set his eyes on Cui Jiu'an, who was laughing wantonly, was he really so stupid?
Seeing the girl's face crying, Doctor Du was a little flustered, looked at the little face that was somewhat similar to his memory, and hurriedly explained: "Everyone in this world has their own strengths, and the noodles you make in the morning are very good, how about you if you don't mind calling me a father-in-law?" ”
Cui Jiuan was surprised by the thickness of the face of the person in front of him, it was not enough to accept an apprentice to call him, and he also had to accept a righteous girl to wash and cook for him, how could there be such a good thing in the world, Cui Jiuan was just about to refuse for Cui Ranxin, who knew that the little fool actually smiled and nodded like pounding garlic was very happy, Cui Jiuan looked loveless.
Compared with Cui Jiu'an's sadness, the sitting Doctor Du got up and lifted Cui Ran and shouted happily: "I have a family and a family-I finally have a family at an age-"
"I still know my age, let go of my sister." Cui Jiuan snatched the girl who was lifted.
"What your sister, this is my daughter." Doctor Du reached out and grabbed it without showing weakness.
"How can there be such a cheap thing in the world, picking up such a big daughter for nothing?" Cui Jiuan did not let go.
"How can there be a brother like you in the world, thinking about your sister every day." Divine Doctor Du fought back with a wicked smile.
"I-I didn't-don't talk nonsense-" Cui Jiu'an was a little incoherent.
"Hmph-master, I've walked more bridges than you stinky boy, you're still tender when fighting with me, quick, pour tea." Doctor Du squinted at Cui Jiu'an.
Looking at Cui Jiu'an, who was still angry, Cui Ranxin broke free from the hands of the two, ran into the kitchen and took out the hot water that had just been boiled, and poured three cups of tea, one cup to Dr. Wan who was studying hard, one cup to Cui Jiu'an, and one cup to Doctor Du with his own fart, and bowed down reverently, and called silently: "Father-in-law!" ”
Doctor Le Dedu's face wrinkled with a smile: "Good boy, get up quickly, I will treat you when you have a cup of tea." After speaking, he took a sip of the teacup.
"Good apprentice, what are you doing stupidly, give me tea to the master!" After speaking, he raised his eyebrows defiantly.
"Master, please accept the apprentice's worship." Cui Jiuan handed over the tea and said respectfully, but his tightly wrinkled eyebrows told everyone that he really didn't do it voluntarily.
"Good apprentice, in the future, the herbs of this Hundred Medicine Valley will be handed over to you to take care of." Doctor Du said relaxedly, and Cui Jiuan's face darkened a little.
"Okay, master." If you don't want to, you still agree.
"Master, if you are really reluctant, you can call me by my name, good boy." After Dr. Du finished speaking, he went into the house and rummaged through the cabinets to find something.
"You call me Master Zu, so what should I call you in the future?" At this time, Dr. Wan, who had recovered from the book, asked stupidly.
Cui Ranxin looked at Dr. Wan, whose eyebrows and beard had turned gray, and then looked at Cui Jiu'an, who was only young, and couldn't help but cover his mouth and snicker.
"Master is above, please accept the apprentice Sun Wanjian's worship." Looking at Doctor Wan, who was saluting seriously, Cui Ran leaned back with a smile.
"Doctor Wan can't help it." Cui Jiuan hurriedly helped up Dr. Wan, who wanted to make a big gift.
"So that the envoy, since you have already apprenticed, you can learn art with peace of mind, with your talent, you will be able to learn something, and you must not live up to the love of the ancestors." Doctor Wan patted the young man's hand and said sincerely.
Cui Jiuan nodded slowly, he understood Doctor Du's intentions, but he didn't know why he was easy to be lit up when he talked to him, the two of them were like magnets repelling each other.
"Xiao Wanzi, come and help me get something." The call of Doctor Du came from inside the house, and Dr. Wan hurriedly entered the house.
"Xiao Wanzi, what are you talking nonsense with my stupid, shut your stinky mouth." As soon as he entered the house, Dr. Wan was scolded by Doctor Du.
"Master Zu, where did I say it wrong?" Doctor Wan looked puzzled.
"Shut up and get me out." Doctor Du slapped Dr. Wan on the back of the head.
Doctor Wan took out the big wooden box, and Doctor Du seemed to remember something and patted his head.
"No, there are still a few things missing, such a little Wanzi, you ride my ox to the town and buy it for me."
"Master Zu, I don't have any money, it's all in my old woman's care." Dr. Wan hurriedly refused.
"Xiao Wanzi, are you looking for a fight?" Doctor Du wants to give Dr. Wan another palm.
"Master, Xin'er and I will go with Dr. Wan, and we will stay here forever in the future, so that we can bring the salute together." Cui Jiuan proposed.
"Okay, bring me some more good wine by the way." Hearing that Cui Jiuan was going, Doctor Du added.
"Then master, you give me a list of what you need."
After a stick of incense, Cui Jiuan took the list that Doctor Du gave him, and regretted what he had just said, because Doctor Du's list estimated that a carriage could not fit it, from needlework to bedding, only you can't think of it, and there is no list that you can't find.
"Lead my scalper to it and find its way. Cow - go out - " Doctor Du shouted, and sure enough, the ox from yesterday came over slowly.
