"Xiao Wan is polite and calls you senior brother. You are self-aware and know that you are not worthy!"
Xu Huairen got up from the ground, slid aside, and said angrily: "Why am I unworthy? After all, I have learned from Grandpa for more than ten years. No matter what, I am more capable than her."
Xu Xingbai pointed at Xu Huairen and said, "How shameless! You actually said you are worthy? Then you two can compete.
"The Traditional Chinese Medicine" was written by our ancestors. Please recite it to me."
Xu Huairen was mute and couldn't recite it.
Xu Xingbai glanced at Xie Wan, who began to recite aloud unkindly:
"I have always said that the creator is the master of the destiny of all things; the ruler is the master of the three talents; the editor is the master of literature; the general is the master of the three armies; and the doctor is the master of destiny from the emperor to the common people..."
Fortunately, after discovering that the set of silver needles belonged to Xu Chunfu last night, Xie Wan spent the whole night reading "Ancient and Modern Medical System".
After practicing the skills in the space, her memory became better and better, and she could basically remember everything she saw.
After she finished reciting the preface, Xu Xingbai nodded with satisfaction: "Xiao Wan, it's done."
Xu Huairen looked very unhappy and muttered, "What's the point of memorizing these books now?"
Xu Xingbai was so angry that he wanted to beat someone up again. He said to Xie Wan, "Xiao Wan, tell this good-for-nothing what's the point of memorizing these books."
Xie Wan only said two words: "Inheritance."
Xu Xingbai's eyes suddenly turned red and she laughed, "Yes, it is the inheritance.
Xiao Wan, come in with me."
Xie Wan followed Xu Xingbai to the back hall.
"Our pharmacy was originally called Chunfu Hall.
The name was changed after liberation.
Our whole family lives in the attic at the back.”
Xie Wan followed Xu Xingbai and passed through a courtyard where dozens of families lived. Perhaps these houses had belonged to the Xu family in the past.
Turn to the innermost part, climb a wooden staircase and go up to the attic.
This is where the Xu family and their son live.
"Master, your family..."
Xie Wan felt that since it was a public-private partnership, there should at least be enough living space left for the descendants of the Xu family. He never expected that the Xu family would actually live in the attic.
Xu Xingbai smiled bitterly: "It was fine when the country was first liberated. Three generations of my family lived together and we were given two side rooms.
A few years ago, your master was criticized and sent to the countryside, and he passed away last year.
The Red Guards came to search our house several times, and someone moved in downstairs. So we were the only two left at home, so we could live together even if we squeezed together.”
Xie Wan didn't dare ask his master's wife.
Xu Xingbai pointed to a black-and-white photo hanging on the wall and said, "Xiao Wan, this is your master.
There are no incense or candles, so just bow to him."
Xie Wan looked up and saw a photo of a kind-looking old man, whose demeanor and temperament were quite consistent with her imagination of a great doctor.
She bowed three times respectfully.
Xu Xingbai said: "You must feel strange that I suddenly decided to accept you as my apprentice."
Xie Wan nodded. She did feel that Xu Xingbai's decision came a little suddenly.
She didn't believe it was just to get back the set of silver needles.
Xu Xingbai had tears in her eyes, and she looked at the old man's portrait and said:
“Before my father died, he wrote me a letter and asked someone to pass it to me.
He said that no matter what, the Xu family's medical skills must not be lost.
He even told me that I could recruit disciples from all walks of life, even those with different surnames.
Only if there are more successors can this method of curing diseases and saving lives be prevented from being destroyed in the turmoil of history.
This was also what he thought about day and night during his last days on the farm.
Your senior brother has no talent for medicine and is not interested in it.
Xiao Wan, you want to learn Chinese medicine, and you are very hardworking. You can make progress in two months of self-study. You are exactly the successor I am looking for."
Xie Wan's eyes also turned red.
She came from the future, and she knew very well how much traditional culture had been cut off in this movement.
Xie Wan was moved and saddened by the master's foresight and sincerity.
She said solemnly: "Master, Master, don't worry, I will study hard and carry forward the medical skills you taught me."
Xie Wan and Xu Xingbai made an appointment that every Thursday afternoon when there were no classes at school, they would come here to study Chinese medicine.
After Xie Wan left, Xu Huairen said to Xu Xingbai with a look of realization:
"Dad, you're so cunning.
If you accept her as your apprentice, you can get our silver needle back without spending any money.
High, really high! "
Xu Xingbai was so angry that his eyebrows trembled, and he cursed: "You son of a bitch, how could my Xu family raise a philistine like you?
Let me tell you clearly, whoever inherits the Xu family's medical skills will be passed on the set of silver needles.
If Xiao Wan can really make it big, I will pass on the needle set to her in the future!"
