Chapter 589 Refusing to Become Dean
As soon as Ye Rou came back, she asked about her master's whereabouts, and the mute woman pointed to her grandfather's study.
She ran in hastily.
In the study, my grandfather and master were both there, drinking tea.
“Master, Master!”
Ye Rou's thick braids were draped over her shoulders, one in front and one behind. She ran so fast that her face turned red.
"Why are you running?" Zheng Zhiyuan put down the teacup, looking helpless.
She is already pregnant, but she still acts like a little girl.
In this case, how can people feel at ease?
Ye Rou quickly stopped, gasping for breath.
Zheng Zhiyuan poured her a cup of warm water. Seeing Ye Rou hurriedly take it and drink it with her head tilted back, he quickly reminded her, "Drink slowly, don't choke."
Seeing his young apprentice arrive just in time, Liu Yutang said with a smile, "Your three senior brothers are planning to build a Chinese medicine hospital. I suggested you become the director. They just called me and agreed."
"puff!"
“Cough cough cough——”
Ye Rou was indeed choked.
Zheng Zhiyuan and Liu Yutang didn't expect her to react so strongly, and they quickly stood up to help her calm down.
"I told you not to drink so quickly." Zheng Zhiyuan frowned.
Ye Rou relaxed for a moment, barely suppressing her cough, and said aggrievedly, "My master's words were too scary."
Zheng Zhiyuan glared at Liu Yutang with a reproachful look.
Liu Yutang immediately complained: "How can this be scary? Being the dean is so prestigious."
Ye Rou snorted.
She had just made up her mind not to join the Western Medicine Association and not to get involved in the fight between the two associations.
He suddenly became the president of the Chinese Medicine Association. This is not just wading through muddy water, it is clearly standing in the eye of the typhoon!
Ye Rou felt overwhelmed when she thought about the troubles that would come in the future.
Ye Rou: "I don't want to be the dean. Master, please help me reject it."
"You kid." Liu Yutang was confused. "You are so talented. Even I am not as good as you in medical skills. Who else can be the dean but you?"
Liu Yutang became more and more excited as he spoke, and his words were full of pride.
Ye Rou: “…”
It's like a martial arts novel where heroes from all walks of life compete for the leadership of the martial arts world.
Ye Rou had worked enough in her previous life.
In this life, she just wants to wait for the national policy to be relaxed so that she can build a small traditional Chinese medicine clinic.
Being her own boss, she sees three to five patients every day and goes off work on time. In her prime years, she doesn't want to spend all her time on work.
What's more, according to President Luo, the Chinese Medicine Association's plan to build this hospital is vaguely intended to compete with Western hospitals.
This Chinese medicine hospital is very important to the Chinese Medicine Association and is not a joke.
Once she becomes the dean, she will inevitably need to devote most of her time and energy to it.
But she is still in school and is now pregnant. She also has to privately investigate what happened to Zheng Lili back then. Her energy is limited and she really cannot be distracted.
"Master, I'm really not suitable to be the dean." Ye Rou paused at this point, her fox eyes slightly raised, staring at the teacher, "Something's wrong."
Liu Yutang was stared at by his young apprentice, and he asked guiltily, "What's wrong?"
"Something's very wrong." Ye Rou stroked her chin and asked suspiciously, "No matter what, if the three brothers want to find the dean, the first person they should consider should be you, Master?"
Liu Yutang looked away feeling guilty.
Ye Rou immediately understood everything. "The three senior brothers originally came to you, Master. But you were lazy and felt that being the dean was too complicated and troublesome, so you recommended me to the three senior brothers!"
Liu Yutang widened his eyes and looked at his little disciple with a look of horror.
This little girl guessed it all right!
Even Liu Yutang's mental journey was almost guessed!
Ye Rou looked at her master's expression and immediately knew that she had guessed correctly.
He turned around and complained to the outside: "Grandpa, please judge, is there any master like this? He pushes the troublesome things onto his apprentice."
Zheng Zhiyuan also said: "Old Liu, you are the master. Set an example for Xiaorou and act like a master."
The two foxes, one big and one small, deceived Liu Yutang together, and he gave in in a daze and actually agreed to be the dean!
When he realized what he had said, Liu Yutang blinked, his eyes blank: "I always feel like something is wrong."
Ye Rou was afraid that her master would react, so she quickly dragged him to the pharmacy: "Master, I have something to ask you for help."
"Grandpa, Master and I are leaving first!"
Zheng Zhiyuan chased after him and warned him, "Walk slowly."
"knew!"
——
Liu Yutang was surprised to see the little girl pulling him all the way to the pharmacy.
Since the pharmacy was built, Ye Rou rarely comes here.
This little girl has a very keen sense of smell, and the smell of the pharmacy is a torture for her to stay there for a long time.
"Master, please help me take a look at this!"
The reddish-brown medicine table was just below Ye Rou's chest. She lay on the table, loosened her tightly clenched hands, and a few yellow-white pills "clicked" onto the table.
Liu Yutang took the pill and put it under his nose to sniff it. His brows were tightly furrowed and his beard was slightly wrinkled from the force.
Ye Rou waited nervously.
These pills were hurriedly stuffed into Wen Bo's hands by Cheng Hui when he came back.
These are the medicines that Professor Huang often takes. If Wen Bo wants to take action, he will definitely hide the poison in these pills.
On the way back, Ye Rou identified it.
These pills had mixed smells, and Ye Rou felt they were somewhat familiar, but she couldn't remember what the ingredient was.
Ye Rou had enough knowledge of Chinese medicine theory, but she had only been studying for a short time and was not as familiar with various medicinal materials as her master. That was why she returned home and went to her master to seek help.
"Hmm..." Liu Yutang pondered, "This taste is somewhat familiar."
He suddenly bent down, took out an iron mortar and pestle from underneath, and put the tablets in according to their colors and crushed them.
Place the powder under your nose and sniff again.
After a moment, the master's relaxed expression faded, his brows furrowed, his squinting eyes suddenly widened, his gaze became as sharp as a knife, and his expression instantly became serious.
"Xiao Rou, where did you get these pills?"
"He's an old professor at University A. He's been suffering from dementia for years. I suspect he's been poisoned. These pills are what he takes regularly."
After Ye Rou finished explaining, she asked, "Master, what's mixed in these pills?"
Liu Yutang did not answer Ye Rou immediately. He put down the white pill, picked up the yellow pill, crushed it and sniffed it again.
Ye Rou stared at her master closely. Seeing him put down the medicine powder and shake his head, she thought to herself, "Oh no!", even her master couldn't tell the ingredients in it?
As she was thinking, the master suddenly stretched out his finger, dipped a little medicine powder, and put it into his mouth!
This pill is poisonous!
"Master!" Ye Rou rushed to the medicine table.
In her panic, she lost control of her strength and slammed her elbow on the medicine table, causing the table beneath her to make a teeth-grinding "crack" sound.
Ye Rou: “!”
