687 Master Shi’s Plan
Mr. Shi's operation lasted a whole morning.
Mr. Shi San was walking around in the hall, "Second brother, what took so long? It's already been two hours."
Mr. Shi returned to Zither Mountain a day earlier than Ping'an and his friends. Several things had happened to his family members one after another, and this cheerful man had a frown on his face.
More than a dozen main members of the Shi family were sitting in the hall.
"Third brother, please sit down. You're making me dizzy." A man who was about the same age as Master Shi Er pulled Shi Wei to sit down.
"Cousin, do you think my eldest brother will be okay?"
"Third brother, it's hard to say. Doctor Xu said that his bones are broken a lot, not just broken. If it was just a bone setting, there would be no need for such an operation."
With a creak, the door opened.
A dozen people gathered around in a flash.
Sun Sicheng and Ping An looked pale. The surgery that lasted the whole morning had consumed too much of their energy.
Ping An supported the master: "Second Uncle, Master Wei, the operation was very successful. Doctor Xu will be watching from inside. You can watch, but you can't have so many people go in at the same time, and you can't disturb him. The master and I are going to wash up."
Erqiang and Fang Wu hurried forward and helped one of them out.
Mr. Shi and three of his cousins entered the operating room.
Doctor Xu stood up and looked at his brothers with excitement.
"Third Master, this eldest son and Ping An are so amazing. My master's bones were so badly broken, but they managed to reconnect them."
He is a famous doctor within a hundred miles of Zither Mountain. Now he finally realizes that his medical skills are nothing in front of strong opponents.
Especially Master Ping An, he was the one who was mainly performing the surgery today, and he was a little afraid to watch during the process.
Considering this was a rare opportunity, he forced himself to stand aside and watch. What kind of hands were those?
Doctor Xu was no longer able to describe what he saw. Even the medical assistance they brought was so extraordinary.
Master Shi was lying there quietly, still in a state of complete coma.
Master Shi looked at his elder brother's thin face and felt distressed. "Doctor Xu, you stay with him. I will find someone to replace you."
Doctor Xu nodded and said, "My son is outside. I will ask him to come in and replace me. Master Ping An said he will come in soon. Third Master, your disciple is really amazing. He is worthy of being the top scholar. He can do the best in everything he learns."
Shi Wei grinned, "Ping An will probably be my only disciple in my life, would I accept him if he wasn't capable?
With the eldest son and Ping An, my eldest brother will definitely be fine.
Peace and safety, second brother, I now realize that my apprentice's name is really good, but it's a pity that my son's name cannot be changed. "
Master Shi looked at his eldest brother on the bed, then looked at the chattering third brother, and sighed.
The eldest brother worries too much. He is away from home all year round and is the one who worries about everything within a hundred miles of Zither Mountain. As the third brother, he is spoiled by the whole family and has become a child.
But there's nothing wrong with that. Seeing him happy makes their busy lives meaningful, right?
"Third brother, let's go out and leave this place to Doctor Xu and his son. Let's go see our parents."
On the second day after Sun Sicheng and Ping'an arrived here, they diagnosed their parents' illnesses, prescribed medicine, and gave them acupuncture. Within three days, their father's condition had improved significantly.
After going out, the two walked towards Fushouyuan.
The second master of the Shi family sighed.
"Brother, my elder brother's surgery went smoothly, and my parents' illness has improved. Why are you still sighing?"
Master Shi stopped and said, "My parents are both very ill this time, and my eldest brother is even more worrying.
After Erhu and Sanhu arrived in the capital, they set off on the third day.
The eldest young master was not familiar with us before, but even if he is familiar with us now, he will not waste three or four months on my family's affairs. After all, he is not only the real owner of Baicaotang, but also the marquis of the Great Zhou.
In the final analysis, it's all because of Ping An. Ping An is your disciple and your savior. In fact, you and I both know that Ping An had no intention of accepting you as his master. He is a scholar, but he already has such good kung fu, which is enough for him to use. "
Mr. Shi Sanye blushed a little. He was really afraid of his persistence. Ping An's kung fu was solid, especially his light kung fu, which was beyond his imagination.
But so what? After all, I became his apprentice.
"Third brother, Ping An is the president of the Imperial Academy. The reason why the emperor asked for such a long leave this time was mainly because of the favor we had with our father. But some favors are of less use. Our father and mother are getting older, and so are the three of us brothers. Time flies, and we can't always ask Ping An to come."
Master Shi frowned: "What should we do? Second brother, how about we settle down somewhere else, even in the suburbs of Beijing?"
Master Shi shook his head and said, "Over the past few decades, we have had many villages, large and small, with thousands of people. We can't just leave them alone. Over time, their hearts will become uncontrollable. Besides, we have a wonderful place here, like a paradise on earth. The world outside has its wonders, but there are more disputes.
I will lead Honghui and the others for a few more years, and when they are more experienced, I will try to go out as little as possible. I feel that I have lost a lot of energy in the past two years. It is true that people grow older with age."
"Brother, you've said so much, what do you want to say?"
"Third brother, I want Ping An to accept Hong Zhi as his apprentice. I hinted to the eldest master when he was in Jiangnan that he would never accept another apprentice in his life. Now that he has Ping An, he will no longer look down on others."
Mr. Shi San clapped his hands and said, "Young Master is truly my confidant. It is true. Now that I have Ping An as my disciple, no one else can catch my eye."
"Third brother, am I talking about you now? I'm talking about asking Ping An to accept Hong Zhi as much as possible. Hong Zhi is only twelve years old this year, with a calm personality. He occasionally follows Doctor Xu to learn about medicine. If Hong Zhi is unwilling, Hong Yun can also accept him."
The three brothers have seven sons: Hongyan and Hongfei from their eldest brother's family, Honghui, Hongtu and Hongyun from their own family, and Hongzhi and Hongming from their third brother's family.
Hongyan is the future leader of Zither Mountain and he definitely cannot practice medicine. Hongfei and Honghui follow him to do business.
Hongyun is fifteen years old this year, so it is a bit late for him to study medicine. Hongming is only seven years old. Yufei, the eldest grandson of the eldest brother, is good in all aspects, but he is only eight years old this year, so he is too young. The most suitable one is Hongfei from the third brother's family.
Master Shi Sanye agreed when he thought about it. His eldest son was not like him at all. Instead, he had the calmness of his eldest brother and the intelligence of his second brother.
"Second brother, Ping An is my disciple. If my son is also his disciple, wouldn't that be a violation of the generational order? They are brothers in the same sect."
"That's why I sighed. There are no more suitable candidates in the families of my cousins. There is no rush for now. They can't leave within a month. Third brother, in a few days, when eldest brother's condition stabilizes and parents are getting better, you can take them around more.
I will find some rare books to give to the eldest son and Sun Wen. Please treat them well. I may not be able to stay in the mountain for long. There are too many businesses down the mountain. It is not enough to rely on a few young people alone. "
"Brother, can't we do less business? We already have so much money that we can't spend it all in many years. Why do we have to earn it like this?"
Master Shi sighed again: "You don't understand business. Once the business network is opened, you can't stop it just because you want to.
Zither Mountain is our root, but even a cunning rabbit has three burrows. We cannot put all our wealth in Zither Mountain.
Not counting the girl, our next generation will have seven brothers, and there are also cousins from other families, countless clansmen, and outsiders who depend on us. There will be even more people in the next generation. With so many descendants, we need to open our mouths to eat every day. What if we encounter natural disasters or man-made disasters? Third brother, second brother dare not rest. "
