Zheng Hua, who was carrying a teapot to add water to them, heard their conversation. Zheng Hua looked at Zhang Yuyi with hope on his face, "Uncle Zhang, can I learn medicine from you?"

Not only Imperial Physician Zhang, but even Qian Chunhua was very surprised by Zheng Hua's choice.

In her mind, although Zheng Hua is not very old, she is careful in her work, has a sense of the overall situation, and is good at martial arts, especially Qinggong.

Qian Chunhua thought she would make the same choice as the others in her sect and use her martial arts to work as a secret guard or bodyguard.

I didn't expect that she would choose to study medicine.

Imperial Physician Zhang had a lot of contact with Zheng Hua along the way. He had a good impression of this little girl. She was calm and meticulous, and a good candidate for studying medicine.

But he did not agree immediately. Instead, he smiled and asked, "Tell me, why do you want to study medicine?"

Zheng Hua put down the teapot, looked at Zhang Yuyi and Qian Chunhua honestly, and said, "I was not an orphan from the beginning. I still remember what happened when I was a child."

As she spoke, Zheng Hua fell into reminiscence and recounted her past.

It turned out that when Zheng Hua was a child, she had both a good father and a poor mother. Her father was a scholar in the village, and her mother did needlework at home and took care of Zheng Hua and her younger brother.

But when Zheng Hua was five years old, a sudden plague swept through her village.

At first, a person in the village started coughing, and gradually his family members started coughing, but no one took it seriously.

Until everyone in the village started coughing, and the old man kept coughing until he suddenly had difficulty breathing and couldn't breathe, and he suffocated himself to death.

The villagers were frightened and called a doctor, but he said it was too late because their lungs had already been damaged and no medicine could cure them.

It is a pity that if it had been taken seriously from the beginning, the consequences would not have been so serious.

At that moment, the doctor's regretful eyes and the ignorant tone of the villagers hurt Zheng Hua deeply. Whenever she thought of this incident, she felt that no matter how good her martial arts were, they could not save people, but only kill people. Deep down in her heart, she still wanted to study medicine and save people. She didn't want to be the ignorant person in the doctor's mouth.

A plague broke out in the village, taking away all of Painter Zheng's family members, leaving her alone.

…

After Zheng Hua finished her speech, her face was calm but her expression was very determined.

Imperial Physician Zhang glanced at Qian Chunhua, who nodded slightly at him.

When he saw this, he understood that Qian Chunhua did not object to Zheng Hua studying medicine.

In fact, Zheng Hua had good reasons for studying medicine. Her starting point was to benefit the public and to treat more people. She did not want to be an ignorant person.

Imperial Physician Zhang did not like doctors whose goal was to make money. Such people only cared about money and would not even hesitate to take human lives to achieve their goals.

He had met many such people before. He had no control over them, and they would not listen to him.

But his apprentice must not be the kind of person who, for the sake of money, would over-treat patients or even take their lives.

Imperial Physician Zhang stroked his beard, looked at Zheng Hua, and nodded with a smile, "Okay, I'll accept you, but..."

"But if you don't have a talent for medicine, I will still expel you from my school."

Zheng Hua was overjoyed and fell to his knees with a plop, "Disciple greets Master."

Zheng Hua heard clearly what Imperial Physician Zhang said next, but she didn't care. She firmly believed that as long as she worked hard, her master would never expel her.

Imperial Physician Zhang turned to Qian Chunhua and said, "You can also study with Zheng Hua, but you don't have to become his disciple."

Qian Chunhua was overjoyed when he heard this. Imperial Physician Zhang was intending to make him an outer disciple.
