Chapter 52 Agreeing to Study Medicine



Wen Xingyue spoke honestly.

To be honest, besides eating good food and watching good TV, I don't know what to do with the rest of my time.

Wen Xingyue muttered to herself.

She has been in the human world for two or three months now. Every day at home, besides looking forward to what delicious food to eat, watching TV with Little Fatty, and going for walks with Huo Tingxiao, she has no idea what else she can do.

She doesn't work in her human body either. She spends most of her time playing with her girlfriends. Her parents and brother spoil her, and she has no worries every day.

Even after the incident involving the real and fake heiresses, she promptly shifted her focus to the Huo family. Once there, she spent her days causing trouble for the Huo family members and bickering with Little Fatty.

Every member of the Huo family has their own job. The beautiful mother is a university teacher, the father is a military commander, the chubby boy goes to school, and Huo Tingxiao, whose leg is not broken, also has a job in the military.

Everyone else has something to do, except her.

Her friends were also driven away by her previous scolding when they tried to persuade her to live a good life and stop causing trouble.

"Then you should learn from me."

Li Tianbai spoke in a deep voice.

"Xingyue, do you want to learn? If you do, we can learn from the old master." Huo Tingxiao realized his oversight, and guilt appeared in his eyes. He held her hand and asked gently.

Based on the old man's confident words, Huo Tingxiao could guess that his medical skills were definitely not bad.

Moreover, she had said that the old gentleman was a good person, and Huo Tingxiao felt at ease letting her learn from him.

"I dare not say that I am good at other things, but I can guarantee you that I am good at medicine. If you acknowledge me, you can walk sideways in the world of traditional Chinese medicine."

Besides, learning from me won't interfere with your eating, sleeping, or playing; we'll learn slowly.

Li Tianbai continued speaking, but the way he sounded was that he was about to kidnap a child.

"Wow, sister-in-law, if you learn how to do this, you can cure us when we get sick, and we won't have to go to doctors outside anymore."

Huo Tingjun looked at Wen Xingyue with bright eyes and said admiringly.

My sister-in-law can already read their faces and help them predict their fortunes. If she has also learned medicine, she is simply amazing.

If his sister-in-law knew medicine, she would definitely be able to detect if he was drugged again and could even help him recover.

All three of them waited for Wen Xingyue's answer.

"Huo Tingxiao, I want to learn."

Wen Xingyue looked at the old man, met the little fat boy's expectant and adoring eyes, and then looked at Huo Tingxiao. She nodded.

The little peach blossom spirit also wants to have something to do. Although she's usually happy eating delicious food and watching good TV shows, the delicious food eventually comes to an end, and the good TV shows eventually end, but time never stops. Everyone in the family is busy and has something to do, and the little peach blossom spirit doesn't want to be alone.

Wen Xingyue is actually very afraid of being alone, especially after coming to the human world. There are no longer Grandpa Tree, Sister Flower, and Sister Grass to accompany her. She has become human and can no longer grow petals to play with herself. Instead, she spends all day with intelligent humans. When she is bored, Wen Xingyue can't help but feel afraid.

Fortunately, she met wonderful parents, Little Fatty, and Huo Tingxiao, which calmed Wen Xingyue's initial panic upon arriving in the human world.

When she was alone, Wen Xingyue didn't know what to do. Everyone in the human world had something to do, but she didn't.

"Okay, then we'll learn." It was rare to see the little peach blossom spirit looking so forlorn, and Huo Tingxiao felt a pang of heartache. He squeezed her hand and supported her.

"May I ask what your surname is, sir?" Huo Tingxiao asked.

"My surname is Li, Li Tianbai," Li Tianbai said calmly.

Li Tianbai.

Huo Tingxiao silently repeated the name to himself and memorized it.

Thinking of the old man's words about being able to do whatever one wanted in the world of traditional Chinese medicine, Huo Tingxiao thought of a certain person.

That man's name was Pei Tianbai.

That was my friend's grandfather, a former master of traditional Chinese medicine. Only that old man dared to say so without any shame that Xingyue recognized him and that he could walk sideways in the world of traditional Chinese medicine.

A long time ago, my friend asked me to help find someone because my friend's grandfather had gone missing and we didn't know where he went.

When Huo Tingxiao received the message from his friend, he asked someone to keep an eye out, but there was still no news.

But the old man in front of me was surnamed Li.

Huo Tingxiao had doubts.

Huo Tingxiao had never met his friend's grandfather, nor had he ever seen a photo of him. He had only heard about his grandfather from his friend. Due to the turmoil of the past ten years, his friend's family had destroyed all the photos of the old man, fearing that it would cause trouble.

To the point that now even finding someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

His guess is just that—a guess. Huo Tingxiao plans to find a suitable place to ask him later.

My friend has been searching for his grandfather all these years, but there has been no news.

We know now that it's unlikely to be such a coincidence, but what if it is?

“Mr. Li, please take the trouble to teach my wife. There are many rooms in the house. If you don’t mind, we would like to invite you to come home with us.”

He looked at Li Tianbai and spoke sincerely.

She wanted to invite Li Tianbai to stay at her home for two reasons: first, to make it easier for Xingyue to study medicine; and second, to give Li Tianbai a place to stay.

The old man is getting on in years, and living in a narrow alley every day is not good for his health.

Huo Tingxiao's duty as a soldier was to strive to ensure that the people of China were free from the invasion of enemy forces and had a stable life. He worked hard to ensure that every citizen had food to eat, clothes to wear, and a place to live. However, the motherland was in ruins and everything was still in the process of being explored and developed. There were still many people in China who had no food or clothes to wear that he had not seen. He was too powerless to help them at the moment, but if he encountered an elderly person in need of help, he would never ignore them.

If it weren't for Xingyue's medical studies, Huo Tingxiao wouldn't have brought her home, but he would have made proper arrangements for the elderly woman, placing her in a place where she could find shelter from the wind and rain and have food to eat.

He had his reasons for bringing the old man home; he wanted to know if the old man could hear the whispers of the stars and moon.

The old man's face was covered by a full beard, making it impossible to see any changes in his expression. His thoughts echoed several times in succession. Huo Tingxiao wanted to observe him, but the old man's beard completely covered his face, and he could only see half of the only part of his eyes.

Only half of his eyes were visible, partially obscured by his messy hair. The old man's eyes, in particular, were incredibly complex, reflecting the vicissitudes of life and a sense of despair. His aged eyes were as calm as still water, only showing a flicker of emotion when they fell upon the stars and moon.

The emotions were so complex that even someone like Huo Tingxiao, who had been on the battlefield and experienced life and death, couldn't quite discern them.

However, Huo Tingxiao vaguely felt that the old man could hear Xingyue's thoughts, and Huo Tingxiao planned to find an opportunity to test him later.

This matter concerns the safety of Xingyue, and Huo Tingxiao cannot be careless about it.
