Chapter 360: Joining the Medical Association
After breakfast, Ling Yao took Gu Qianyue to the Medical Association.
When President Xu of the Medical Association heard that Ling Yao was coming, he went out to greet her in person, "Miss Ling, what brings you here? Hahaha... Come on, come on, come on, sit inside."
Gu Qianyue looked at Ling Yao in surprise. He didn't expect that his newly recognized apprentice would be greeted by the president of the Medical Association in person.
President Xu walked up to Ling Yao and noticed Gu Qianyue next to Ling Yao, "Who is this?" He felt that the other person looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
"He is my master, Gu Qianyue. Master! This is President Xu of the Medical Association." Ling Yao introduced the two parties.
President Xu showed a look of surprise on his face, and then extended his hand to Gu Qianyue enthusiastically, "Hello! So you are Miss Ling's mysterious master? I am so lucky to have the honor of meeting you today!"
Gu Qianyue smiled awkwardly when he heard it. He just recognized Ling Yao as his apprentice, and President Xu must have made a mistake.
Turning his head to look at Ling Yao, seeing that she did not explain, Gu Qianyue did not explain much. Maybe Ling Yao did not want people to know who her master was behind her.
He extended his hand and shook hands with President Xu, "Hello, President Xu! Actually, we have met before, but it may have been so long that President Xu has forgotten."
President Xu carefully looked at Gu Qianyue, and then showed a look of surprise, "So it's you? I heard that you went abroad, when did you come back?" He had also heard about Gu Qianyue.
Gu Qianyue's medical skills are well-known in the Chinese medicine community, and he is upright and helpful, and is deeply loved by everyone.
It's just that the environment at that time was not very friendly to them, Chinese medicine practitioners, and many Chinese medicine practitioners even lost their lives because of this, so he could fully understand why Gu Qianyue chose to go abroad under such circumstances.
"Just arrived in Beijing yesterday." Gu Qianyue smiled.
"Let's talk inside. Xiao Zhang, go make some tea." President Xu happily invited Ling Yao and Gu Qianyue to the office.
After sitting down, President Xu smiled and looked at Gu Qianyue, "Are you leaving this time?"
"No, and I want to donate all of these to the Medical Association." Gu Qianyue said, picking up the box at his feet, putting it on the tea table and opening it.
After seeing the medical books in the box, President Xu was extremely excited, "This... This is Shennong's Herbal Classic, and Emperor's Eighty-one Difficulties, Ghost Doctor's Thirteen Needles, God! These medical books are all here, I thought they were all destroyed..."
His voice was choked with sobs, and his eyes were red. Only they, the Chinese medicine practitioners, can know how precious these books are, and how important these books are.
After sniffing, President Xu stood up and bowed to Gu Qianyue gratefully, "Brother Gu! You are really a great contributor to our Chinese medicine community! On behalf of all Chinese medicine practitioners in the community, I thank you!"
Gu Qianyue also stood up quickly and waved his hands a little embarrassedly, "You are too serious. I am also a member of the Chinese medicine community. These are what I should do. I just did my best." President Xu
reached out and held Gu Qianyue's hand, "No, it should be. If it weren't for you, these medical books would not be preserved, let alone preserved so well." The situation changed too quickly at the time, and he didn't have time to transfer many of his medical books, and later those medical books were destroyed. Thinking about it now, he still feels resentful.
Gu Qianyue smiled and shook his head, "I came back this time to do my part for the cause of Chinese medicine."
"Welcome! Welcome! It is an honor for our Chinese medicine community that you can come back. It just so happens that the Medical Association has a vice president position, and you are just right for it." President Xu said with a smile. The previous position was reserved for Ling Yao after their Medical Association discussed it, and now it is the same for Ling Yao's master. I believe no one will object.
"No, I just came back and I am not qualified for that position." Gu Qianyue quickly shook his head and refused.
"Brother Gu, you are the most suitable one, so don't refuse it anymore." President Xu turned to look at Ling Yao, "Miss Ling, don't you agree?"
Ling Yao smiled and nodded, looking at Gu Qianyue, "Master! Don't refuse it anymore." Master is outstanding in both medical ethics and medical skills. He is absolutely qualified to sit in this position.
"Look, Miss Ling has said so, so don't refuse it." President Xu echoed.
Gu Qianyue smiled helplessly, "Okay, then I'll obey your command."
President Xu smiled happily, stretched out his hand and shook hands with Gu Qianyue vigorously, "Brother Gu! Welcome to join our Medical Association."
He raised his hand and looked at the watch on his hand, "The time is just right, let's go have a meal together to celebrate!"
Ling Yao and Gu Qianyue hurriedly declined, but President Xu was too enthusiastic and it was really hard to refuse.
They came to the small restaurant opposite the Medical Association together. President Xu asked for a private room and ordered several dishes. He wanted to order some wine, but Ling Yao and Gu Qianyue didn't drink, so he gave up.
The three of them talked and laughed, and had a great time, completely forgetting the time.
After the meal, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.
President Xu wanted to invite Ling Yao and Gu Qianyue to sit for a while in the Medical Association.
Ling Yao smiled and declined, "President Xu, thank you very much for your hospitality! But I still have to take my master to see the house. When there is a chance, we will definitely get together again."
"Okay then."
President Xu sent Ling Yao and Gu Qianyue to the parking lot, and waited until their car drove away before walking back to the office. He was very happy today. It was definitely a blessing for the Medical Association to be able to recruit a medical genius like Gu Qianyue into the Medical Association.
Ling Yao brought Gu Qianyue to a courtyard.
The moment Gu Qianyue saw the courtyard, his eyes suddenly turned red. He didn't expect that the house Ling Yao showed him was actually his original home.
"Master! I have already bought this place, and it will still be your home in the future." Ling Yao took out a property certificate from her bag and handed it to Gu Qianyue, "Your name is on it."
"You...how do you know..." Gu Qianyue took the property certificate with a trembling hand. He had never told Ling Yao where his home was? How did she know that this was his home?
"Let's not talk about this for now, let's go in and take a look. Master! You open the door." Ling Yao smiled and winked at Gu Qianyue mischievously.
Gu Qianyue turned his head, wiped his eyes with his hand, then took a step forward, took a deep breath, stretched out his hands, and exerted a little force.
With a low creaking sound, the old gate slowly opened to both sides.
Inside the gate was a small courtyard, only a few square meters in size, surrounded by bluestone paved ground, neat and clean.
