Chapter 29: Russell (6)
"Daddy, my son has been sick three times after studying for half a month!" I raised three fingers, and my face was very innocent and pitiful, "If I continue to study, my son's life will be gone!" ”
"You are too weak, so you have to strengthen your body through martial arts!" The father's attitude was very resolute: "You look around, look at which son's body is half as good as yours, and if you take a few steps, you will not be able to get off the bed!" ”
"Daddy...... "It's a pity that no matter how resolute my father's attitude is, he can't resist me" That's not just a simple Zama step, it's simply going to kill me! ”
After that, I hurriedly lifted my sleeves, "Daddy, look, it's only been half a month, and I'm scarred everywhere, isn't Daddy distressed?" ”
After speaking, I planned not to give my father a chance to refuse, but directly said what was in my heart, wanting to move my father with this, "Daddy, my son is really not interested in martial arts at all." You know, my son has a special background.
Now even if God has mercy and his father's love, the moment his mother died, his son still dare not forget. The son was very afraid of the feeling that he was powerless and could only resign himself to fate.
So...... So ......"
Since I came to Luo's house, I rarely talk about the past.
Now that my father saw me take the initiative to say these words, he couldn't help but feel a little abrupt, and his attitude was not as tough as Fang Cai's, "So what? ”
"So my son wants to study medicine!" When I saw my father follow my words and ask, I hurriedly said, "I know that the ancestors of the Luo family have not studied medicine for generations, and it is a bit abrupt for me to suddenly mention this request.
But because of this, I want to learn all the medical skills. First, it is to fulfill the dream in my heart, and secondly, to let the Luo family have a person who understands medical skills to rely on in the future. Third, I also want to do my best to save some people in need. ”
When my father heard this, his eyes narrowed, "Studying medicine?" Do you know that no matter how useful the medical skills are, after entering the court, they are only a imperial doctor and have no real power.
But if you learn civil and military affairs well, and think that your father's position in the court, your future is limitless! ”
"Daddy, I'm afraid my son is going to live up to your expectations." The father has no son, and he is bent on cultivating a child to enter the official career, take over the Luo family, and take care of his sister. So, I understand that he can do this.
It's just that everyone has their own ambitions, and they must not be forced. Even though my father was kind to me, he was able to raise me.
Perhaps, in the eyes of others, I don't know what to do. But in my heart, it is the performance that I regard the Luo family as my own family, "My son wants to study medicine, because he wants to treat the people around him with his own hands when he needs it in the future, instead of asking God and worshiping Buddha, and putting the lives of his important people in the hands of others."
Moreover, after learning a body of medical skills, he may not necessarily enter the court to become a doctor. I can open a Luo family medical center, or I can walk the world to save Wancang.
In short, there are thousands of ways to reflect the value of people, and you don't have to become a big official, power and status, so you don't have to be a vain visit! ”
Speaking of which, I suddenly noticed that there was a bit of relief in my father's eyes. So, he immediately said, "Besides, my personality is too upright and not tactful enough." If you become an official, you will definitely suffer many twists and turns. If you accidentally offend your colleagues in the DPRK and China or Long Live Lord, and then you will injure your father, won't the gains outweigh the losses? ”
After finishing speaking, he repeatedly softened his tone, "Daddy...... What do you think? ”
When my father heard this, he stared at me for a long time without saying a word. It wasn't until I was covered in cold sweat that I heard him say, "My Luo family has always had a thin heir, and in the past few generations of my ancestors, it has been passed down in a single line. When I arrived, I only had one daughter.
I was thinking, let you be arrested with civil and military forces. After learning some skills, it is good to enter the court as an official and serve the court. First, our Luo family has been officials for several generations, and they all rely on eating imperial food for a living.
Second, the Luo family has not practiced martial arts for several generations, if you can learn a skill, I will have no regrets in this life.
It's just, that's it!
You're a young kid, but you're very assertive. Now that you have an idea in your own heart, the Father doesn't want to force you anymore.
Fortunately, the Luo family is based here, raising you for a lifetime, and being willing to be for your father! ”
As soon as I heard this, I knew that my father had agreed. So, no longer caring that he was still a person who admitted his mistakes, he jumped up from the ground and jumped towards his father, "Daddy, I know that you are the most sensible!" ”
My father was hung by me, and there was a tolerant smile on his face, "You kid, you are really not an official." Just praise you a few words, and this will be lawless. ”
When I heard this, I grinned, "I'm my brother in front of the painting, so I have to be steady and mature, so that I can protect her well in the future." But in front of my father, I was just a child. If you have a child who is distressed by your father, you have the right to be lawless! ”
After that, I said, "Daddy, since you agreed, I can go and buy medical skills in the future, right?" I can also go to the medical clinic outside and learn from those Langs, right? ”
Seeing that I was so happy, my father couldn't help but shake his head, "Yes, yes, yes." ”
……
Since I had an open and honest conversation with my father, I have had a good time.
In the past, before dawn, I had to get up and walk and run circles. Now, at least you can sleep until the sky is white, and then you can get up lazily.
After getting up and washing, I went to the front hall to have breakfast with my sister Zhihua. Afterwards, they either chatted with her or went back to the house to study.
If you're in a bad mood, read some books that make people happy. When my mood was high, I read some medical books that I had brought from outside.
At noon, I had lunch with my father and sister Zhihua, and then rested for a while.
After noon, you can swagger out of the gate and go to the hospital to find Mao Lang's middle school knowledge.
Mao Langzhong is actually not surnamed Mao, the reason why others call him so is only because he is an iron rooster who does not pull out a hair.
In fact, as Lang Zhong, it is inevitable that he will encounter some dying patients in his life. They don't have enough money to pay for the consultation, and they can't even afford to grab the medicine.
Whenever this happens, other Lang Zhong will do something more or less.
For example, forget the consultation fee this time. For example, you give credit first, and then give it later. For example, I'll draw you a herb, and you can go to the mountains to find it yourself.
But Mao Lang is different!
Pulse diagnosis and prescription medicine, consultation fee first.
If you can't see the consultation fee, Mao Langzhong will never treat people.
Even if the patient who came to him was terminally ill, he could remain indifferent.
Many people can't understand this.
A normal person will have some feelings when facing birth, old age, sickness and death. But Mao Langzhong, as a doctor, can be so indifferent.
What a cruel thing it was to watch a man who could have been saved die in front of his eyes because he had no money.
I didn't want to come to Mao Langzhong to study medicine, firstly, because I felt that he was impersonal, and secondly, I was afraid that my heart would become as hard as his.
But later I found out that in the capital, large and small medical halls do not easily recruit apprentices.
Especially, an apprentice of my status.
First, the road to studying medicine is difficult, and others are afraid that it will be difficult to discipline them if they recruit apprentices with prominent backgrounds. Second, no one wants to teach a person who doesn't know the bottom of the matter to study medicine.
In addition, I am only nine years old, and in the eyes of others, I am a little doll who loves to play, how can I persist on the road to studying medicine?
So later, there were thousands of choices, but they could only stop in Mao Lang.
Mao Langzhong is an old man.
His hair was gray, his figure was very thin, and he walked a little hunchbacked. However, none of this affected him.
He was still very shrewd, his eyes were bright, and his ears were not ambiguous.
Fortunately, although Mao Langzhong is old, his gold-loving temperament has not changed. So, when he saw the golden silver in my hand, he accepted me without thinking.
It's just that he won't let me call him Master, nor will he treat me as an apprentice. He just treated me like a little chorre in his medical hall, usually cleaning and drying herbs.
Hey, he took my money and asked me to work hard, I'm afraid there is no one more shrewd than him in this world, right?
I asked him how he managed to be indifferent to the sickness and life and death of others.
He said......
If you don't wronged others, you can only wronged yourself.
I studied medicine hard and spent money on tuition. Why do you want me to be willing to treat you without receiving a penny?
In this world, where is there such a cheap thing?
I listened to him and felt a little bit of agreement in my heart.
That's right, and there's nothing wrong with that. It's just that I can't be like him.
No matter how indifferent people are, they still have to have a human touch. Otherwise, what's the difference between living and being the walking dead?
In this world, it is because there are too many doctors who take monetary interests too seriously like Mao Langzhong. That's why my mother was tortured so much before she died.
"Hey, let you dry some herbs, you're lazy again!" Just as I was thinking, one of the brooms in the Mao Lang waved at me.
Because I was not sensitive enough, I was beaten alive, "Master Mao, what are you doing." ”
"What to do? Hit you slacker! Mao Langzhong pointed to the herbs in my hand and said, "Where is it as easy as you think it is to study medicine?" Looking for medicine and drying medicine, just a few sloppy eyes?
Although you are a rich and noble boy, you also spent money to come to me to learn things. You're so lazy, I'm sorry not for me, but for your money! ”
I was a little surprised.
I always thought that Mao Langzhong was an indifferent doctor, but I didn't expect that now, he would still think about me.
So, he hurriedly said, "Master Mao, I was wrong, I was wrong, don't be angry!" ”
After that, I put down the herbs in my hand and ran to Mao Langzhong, "The herbs have been dried, you say, what should I learn now?" ”
Mao Langzhong stroked his beard, "Well, to be a man, you have to be diligent, don't be lazy." ”
After that, he handed me the broom in his hand, "Okay, let's go and sweep up the fallen leaves in the yard." Then, rub the ashes off the table. When you're done, you can go back. ”
When I heard this, my heart felt like I had fallen from heaven to hell.
Sure enough, Mao Langzhong is Mao Langzhong, and his temperament can't be changed! I thought he was really for my good, but I didn't expect that he just couldn't find anyone to help clean up.
"Master Mao, I come here every day to dry herbs and sweep the floor, when can you teach me to take the pulse and look at the complexion?" I thought about it, and finally said to him.
When Mao Langzhong heard this, he immediately blew his beard and glared at me, "What?" Dried herbs and swept the floor wronged you? You sweep the floor with me, won't I also give you a medical book!
If you read the medical book and then look at the herbs, don't you understand which herb is called what it is called and what its function is? ”
"This ......"
"What is this? Still not going to work? Mao Langzhong didn't give me a chance to speak, and said straightly, "If you don't work anymore, I won't teach you how much money you give!" ”
"Uh...... I'm going to ......."
I shrugged my head and dragged the broom away.
is well-behaved on the surface, but I don't know how many times I scolded Mao Langzhong in my heart.
Mao Lang's words sounded reasonable, but the medical book he gave me was acupuncture, but what I asked me to do was to dry herbs.
Can I understand what the eight poles can't hit?
……
In the hospital, I was sweeping the leaves, wiping the dust, and cleaning the floor. By the time I got back to the house, I was exhausted.
"Su'er, you're back." My father was waiting for me in the main hall, and there was a man sitting next to him.
The man was as old as his father's, but he looked more dashing than his father. He was dressed in white, and his skin was like blood fat.
A pair of slender and long hands are holding a white jade teacup at this moment.
"Daddy," I called out to my father, and continued to look at the man.
When my father saw the stains on my face, he hurriedly smiled and said, "Look at you, you look like a little cat, but Mao Langzhong is embarrassed for you again?" ”
When I heard this, I laughed dryly, "It's not embarrassing, it's not embarrassing...... As long as you can learn medical skills well, it is worth it! ”
"What did you do today?" Father asked again.
I thought about it for a moment and said, "It's nothing, so I dried the herbs." ”
As soon as I finished speaking, the man in white finally looked up at me, and then, lowering his eyes again, did not speak.
When my father saw this, he said, "Su'er, you go down first and change your clothes, and then come out after dressing yourself up." ”
When I saw that my father didn't mean to introduce me, I obediently went back to the courtyard first.
……
At dinner, my father sent someone over and said that I should bring the medical books I had read during this period of time and go to Yuedeyuan for dinner.
Woltokuen?
Isn't that a vacant yard?
I once went to the other side of the Yuede Garden once when I was bored. Although I just looked outside, I felt that this courtyard was very elegant.
At the time, I wanted to go in and have a look.
But the little guy next to him said that his father had said that no one could enter this courtyard without his orders.
Even the sister who knows how to draw can't do it!
Later, out of curiosity, I found a promise or two.
Everyone said that this Yuede Garden was an extremely mysterious place, and it used to be lived by my father's friend. Later, the friend traveled all over the world, and the courtyard was empty.
Today, my father suddenly asked me to come over. Could it be because of the man in white?
