Chapter 168 Er Gou Goes to See Tian Wanyin for Medical Treatment

Given the seriousness of Chuanwen's words, Ergou went to see Tian Wanyin that very night.

After sending Tian Wanyin's two daughters to the capital, Tian Wanyin inquired about his address, and the two families began to communicate. Therefore, he was familiar with the route to Tian Wanyin's house. When he arrived, Tian Wanyin was just returning from school with her two daughters.

The two girls surrounded Er Gou and called him "Brother Su Heng". Er Gou brought them some snacks. The two girls were hungry, so they happily thanked him and took a piece of snack. Before they could even take a bite, Uncle Mei, who came out of the kitchen, called them to wash their hands. The two girls playfully stuck out their tongues and obediently went to wash their hands.

Uncle Mei liked Er Gou, who was good at everything, and invited him to come in and have dinner together. However, Er Gou had already eaten dinner and thought that he didn't have anything important to do, so he didn't want to disturb them while they ate. Instead, he went to Qi Feng's room to check on his condition.

The Crown Prince asked Tian Wanyin if she would like to enter the palace as a royal physician, but Tian Wanyin declined. Previously, the girls' school had no support, and she did not want to leave when Zhang Qing needed help the most. Now that the girls' school was thriving, she was very interested in what Chuanwen was talking about, so she did not plan to leave.

Unable to move freely within the palace, the Crown Prince entrusted Qi Feng to her care, providing her with two servants and guards, and also giving her a considerable amount of money each month.

When Er Gou came in, Qi Feng was practicing calligraphy. He was a patient, and Tian Wanyin and the others came back late, so he ate earlier than them every day.

Seeing Er Gou enter, Qi Feng felt quite embarrassed. He used to be a beggar and had never had the opportunity to learn to read. After being rescued by the Crown Prince, he was bedridden and had no energy or time to learn to read.

After recuperating at the Tian family's house for the past few months, he's been able to get out of bed. Since Tian Wanyin is a teacher, the family has a strong scholarly atmosphere, so he wanted to learn to read. However, he doesn't have the foundation, and after studying for so many days, his handwriting is still so ugly. Not to mention comparing it to Teacher Tian and Ya'er and Ye'er (two little girls), even Uncle Mei's handwriting is better than his.

When Er Gou wasn't acting like a dog, life was peaceful and serene. He comforted Qi Feng and gave him some pointers on a few words. When Qi Feng wrote it again, it was indeed much better than before. He couldn't help but admire this talented and handsome young man even more.

After writing a few words and quickly finishing her meal, Tian Wanyin came in to check Qi Feng's pulse. Although the pulse was still weak, it was considered normal.

Qi Feng has been ill for so many years, and his health has been almost completely depleted. Treatment cannot be rushed. Tian Wanyin is treating him while simultaneously replenishing his body. Otherwise, if the treatment is too drastic, Qi Feng might not be able to withstand it and die.

Tian Wanyin told Qi Feng not to practice too late, and then went to the main room with Er Gou.

When she learned that Er Gou's purpose in coming was to ask her to see a doctor, Tian Wanyin was a little surprised.

She saw that Er Gou was full of energy and couldn't possibly be sick.

Moreover, although his medical skills are not as good as hers, he is still capable of treating common illnesses. How did he end up coming to her?

"It's Xiaowen who's worried."

Er Gou told Tian Wanyin about Chuanwen's unusual behavior today, and Tian Wanyin frowned. Although Zhang Qing hadn't told her about Chuanwen's leaked thoughts, she had witnessed Chuanwen's black box technology and felt that this girl was somewhat legendary, so she didn't dare to be careless.

Tian Wanyin took Er Gou's pulse for even longer than she did for Qi Feng, and her brows furrowed more and more, which made Er Gou frown as well.

"how?"

When Er Gou asked, Tian Wanyin shook her head.

"I'm not sure yet."

But her furrowed brows suggested that Er Gou probably really had some serious illness.

Er Gou clenched his other hand slightly, then smiled with relief, "Speak freely."

He himself was quite skilled in medicine, and besides, there was a descendant of the Medical Sage in front of him. He didn't believe there was any disease that the two of them together couldn't cure.

Tian Wanyin then described Er Gou's pulse condition in detail, which she had never seen before. It was likely that her family's ancestral medical treatise would need to be revised.

"But don't worry too much, maybe I'm mistaken. Besides, even if there is something wrong, this disease may still be incurable."

Er Gou could tell that Tian Wanyin was trying to comfort him, but he wasn't particularly worried, so he smiled and nodded.

Tian Wanyin instructed him to come over every day, and if he felt unwell, she told Uncle Mei to go to the girls' school to find her.

Er Gou was very grateful to Tian Wanyin. After agreeing, he saw that it was getting late and got up to say goodbye.

After Er Gou left, Tian Wanyin sighed deeply, lamenting that heaven was jealous of talent. However, she quickly cheered up. If it weren't for Su Heng, she would never have seen her two daughters again. Now that her benefactor was in trouble, she couldn't let anything happen to him, especially since it was in her area of ​​expertise.

Tian Wanyin got up to look up medical books, and as she flipped through them, she let out another sigh.

Years ago, her ancestors were tragically massacred by bandits, and their medical books were lost. My maternal grandmother and mother survived, but life was still difficult. Fortunately, the Tian family did not have the rule of passing on medical skills only to sons. Although my maternal grandmother was a daughter-in-law, she was more talented than the men in the family and learned most of her father-in-law's medical skills.

Later, her maternal grandmother supported her and her mother with her medical skills. After accumulating some savings, she began to search for lost medical books. It had been two generations since then, and only a dozen or so books had been recovered.

Many of the pathologies and techniques are incomplete; otherwise, she would have had more references.

The moonlight was cool. Er Gou walked back home, looking up at the bare branches swaying in the wind, and down at the pond water that had thawed with the passing of winter and the arrival of spring.

The Great Jin Dynasty was prosperous and had no curfew. The streets were still bustling with people at night, but the red lanterns hanging everywhere were blown by the wind, leaving a slight trace of the loneliness after the New Year.

After returning to his residence, Er Gou did not go inside immediately. Instead, he sat down under the old tree in front of the door and admired the moonlight.

Just after the fifteenth of the lunar month, the bright moon overhead was as round as a silver plate, its clear light casting a veil over the prosperous world before us.

Er Gou suddenly thought of a question: After people die, do they really become ghosts and go to the underworld to enter the cycle of reincarnation?

If he could, he hoped he could stay in this world, because even if he couldn't be with Xiaowen for her whole life, he hoped to see her happy.

It seems that the people in the Changxing Marquis's household are all of good character, so Xiaowen should be able to be happy.

A night breeze blew by, and Er Gou shivered, chuckling to himself. When had he become so sentimental? He got up to go home, but his brow furrowed slightly, wondering why Xiao Wen seemed to know he would catch the disease.

After entering the courtyard, Su Yue was sewing a cloak. The exams were coming up in a few days, and although it would be springtime, it would still be cold. Wearing a cloak would help keep her warm.

Seeing that Su Yue hadn't gone to sleep, Er Gou gave her the roasted chestnuts he had bought on the way, offered to take over her work, and told her to eat them and go to sleep, as she had to get up early to go to the shop the next day.

Su Yue shook her head. Her younger brother was just too sensible. He told her to get up early the next day, but when had he ever gotten up late? He studied until midnight at night and got up earlier than the chickens in the morning. He even made her a hot breakfast because he was worried she would be cold.

Su Yue sent Er Gou inside and told him not to study anymore, but to relax these days to avoid too much pressure. But thinking about her brother's personality, she figured the pressure would be directed at the test setter, so she couldn't bring herself to say that he was under too much pressure. Instead, she told him to get some rest.
