Chapter 279: Exchanging favors for a change
After deciding this, Dr. Jiao couldn't sit still, he had no other hobbies to pursue in his life, but he was obsessed with medicine, in order to be able to practice medicine everywhere and accumulate experience, he even gave up marrying a wife and having children, and even now, he is still alone, and he has never regretted it.
But if he misses the medical book, then he will regret it and can't sleep.
"Let's go, let's go to Mr. Jiang's."
"Huh? Just go straight to it? ”
Doctor Jiao raised his eyebrows, "Then what's not?" ”
Xu Huaiyi smiled dryly, "It's not good to come to the door empty-handed, right?" ”
Doctor Jiao snorted, "Why are you empty-handed?" The old man is exchanging favors. ”
"I take the liberty of asking, what kind of favor is it?"
"A few years ago, the old man once saved his son's life, the situation was very critical at that time, the old man gave up a rare pill of medicine, only to drag people back from the ghost gate, he is a son, carrying all the hope and incense of the Jiang family, do you say this favor is not great?"
"Great, the grace of saving lives is greater than the sky."
"Is that enough for your son to ask for a gentleman?"
"It's enough, I don't think it's going to be used, if we really want to exchange like this, we'll lose a lot."
Seeing his thoughtful expression, Dr. Jiao didn't know what he was going to do, so he asked with a smile, "What?" Don't want the old man to go? ”
Xu Huaiyi said in a sincere tone, "Yes, take the money to buy a cow and buy a rabbit back, this deal is too cost-effective, are you still aggrieved?" ”
Doctor Jiao had a free and easy expression, holding a cup and sipping tea slowly, "The old man doesn't care." ”
Xu Huaiyi clutched his chest, "But I have a so-called ah, it's uncomfortable here." ”
Doctor Jiao was amused by him, "Okay, don't act with me, what do you want to say, don't beat around the bush, the old man doesn't have time to serve you." ”
Xu Huaiyi suddenly laughed, "I was thinking, if you save your favor and keep it for later, how about you just help me say a few good words?" ”
Doctor Jiao scolded with a smile, "I don't have much weight in my words, you weren't sharp enough when those people who begged him to accept apprentices in the past?" It's useless to talk about it, his heart is like a rock. ”
"Of course you can't just say it with your mouth, how about I send him two books too?"
"Send him a book? Do you know that his study is big? Do you know how many books there are in Guozijian's collection? Do you know how high the stacks of books he reads? ”
Xu Huaiyi blinked, "But he hasn't read the book I sent." ”
Dr. Jiao didn't believe it, "Where did you get the book?" It's not that I'm bragging for him, but he has dabbled in all the books on the market, or some of the only books collected by the family, and he has also borrowed them, don't tell me, it was left to you by your father-in-law. ”
Xu Huaiyi said seriously, "You guessed right, it was indeed left to us by our father-in-law." ”
Doctor Jiao frowned and said, "It can't be a travelogue written by your father-in-law, right?" It's not that I underestimate him, Mr. Jiang's vision and taste are very high, and what ordinary people write can't get into his eyes, if you take two books casually, not only will it not please him, but it will be self-defeating. ”
"Am I that stupid?"
“…… So what's not? Is it really a scarce good book? ”
Xu Huaiyi swore an oath, "Of course, he will be happy and love him." ”
Doctor Jiao looked at him indescribably, "Where did you get your confidence?" Before, I could barely believe you a little bit when I said that, but I said this to Mr. Jiang...... I'm afraid you want to be beaten. ”
Xu Huaiyi said, "I'm serious......"
Doctor Jiao waved his hand, "Stop, you can also save this favor for me, I can't afford to lose, don't you want to send me a medical book, that's enough." ”
Xu Huaiyi still wanted to say something, so he swallowed it back.
"I'll go first, you sit with me for a while, wait, the matter is said to be done, you come to the door again, if it goes well, just set the table, and you can learn tonight."
“……”
Dr. Jiao wrapped his cloak and went out, the Jiang family was diagonally opposite, and he arrived after walking the tea kung fu, and after entering the familiar door, he was welcomed into the study by the old servant.
Jiang Yong was crooked on the couch reading a book, with a stove and a tea set next to him, when he heard the movement, he raised his eyes to look at him, and asked slightly, "Why are you here?" ”
Doctor Jiao didn't need anyone to greet him, he sat opposite him by himself, took a clean cup, poured tea and warmed his hands, "I have something to tell you." ”
"What's the matter?"
"The favor you owed me before, you can pay it back today."
Hearing this, Jiang Yong suddenly sat up straight, and his originally casual attitude suddenly became serious, "Are you in trouble?" ”
Seeing his reaction, Doctor Jiao ironed in his heart, shook his head with a smile, "It's not me, what trouble can I have when I'm old?" I'm the one who comes to you for someone else's benefit. ”
Jiang Yong asked curiously, "What are the benefits?" ”
Doctor Jiao said sourly, "I want to ask you to be a gentleman for his son." ”
Jiang Yong's eyes flashed, and he immediately reacted, and asked with a smile, "You won't be a lobbyist for that Xu Gongzi under the mountain, right?" ”
Doctor Jiao snorted, "It's not him." ”
Jiang Yong looked at him and was silent.
Doctor Jiao glared, "What kind of eyes are you?" Don't know the old man anymore? ”
Jiang Yong leaned back on the couch and said unhurriedly, "It's a little hard to admit it, when did you become so enthusiastic?" You and that Xu Gongzi are not related to each other, and they only want to help his son have a chance to study? It's not like your style. ”
Dr. Jiao emphasized, "It's not just for you to guide him to study, it's for 800 apprentices." ”
"There's no need for a lifesaver."
"Am I willing?"
Jiang Yong said with a smile, "You are happy, but I am not." ”
Doctor Jiao's eyes widened suddenly, "I said, Jiang Sacrifice Wine, Lord Jiang, where is your cheek?" Who said that as long as I save your son, no matter what I ask in the future, you will not refrain if you do it? It's just for you to take in an apprentice, are you? ”
Jiang Yong said slowly, "As for the old man, he has already let out his words and will no longer accept apprentices, but now you let me make an exception, that is to break my word and fat, people cannot stand without faith, you said that I am famous in my life, and I will ruin you like this, as for not to?" ”
Doctor Jiao was speechless.
Jiang Yong continued, "Besides, you also know why I hid in this Hutian Village, isn't it just to avoid those people? I thought that this place was rejected and rejected by the people of the capital, and the days would be quiet and stable, who would have thought that so many people came to Xujia Village at once, breaking the tranquility here, this is not to blame you, I didn't say anything, you are good now, and you actually took the initiative to solicit trouble for me, once those people knew that I began to accept apprentices again, then I was not tossed in vain? ”
Doctor Jiao explained weakly, "I didn't let you beat the gong and drum to accept the apprentice, let's just apprentice in private, besides, the people in the village don't know who he is at all, and they can't speak." ”
"Xu Huaiyi must know, right?"
"Ahem, I know a little bit."
"You told him?"
"Sort of, but don't worry, he's not the kind of person who clings to the powerful." (End of chapter)
