After Lin Tian came out from his master, he did not return to the compound, but went home.
Today, Lin's father and mother were both resting at home. After returning home, he explained the situation to his parents. He also briefly told them about his current master, Wang Wujiu. After all, after the master notified the specific time in a few days, Lin's father and mother would also have to show up when he became the disciple.
Although they have now separated from Lin's father and mother, they are still very happy to know that their youngest son can become a disciple of a famous doctor. Lin's mother even directly instructed Lin's father to quickly prepare gifts for her son to take him to the doctor's house.
But Lin Tian stopped him. He could prepare these things by himself. He didn't need to bother his father to ask for favors. If it didn't work, he could just go to the black market a few more times and get them.
However, Lin Tian, who had made this preparation, was scolded by his mother, who said that he was a child and knew nothing, and then said that these should be prepared by parents. So Lin Tian had to give up the plan of preparing gifts himself.
When I got off work in the evening, my eldest brother came back. The family was very supportive of him studying medicine. After all, it was very convenient to have a doctor at home. My eldest brother and his wife said that if he needed any money, he could just ask.
After the family happily finished their dinner, Lin Tian rode his bike back to the compound.
When Lin Tian entered the compound, there was no one in the yard. They must have all been resting after dinner. There was no entertainment program at the moment. Probably only Yan Fugui was staring at the gate.
Seeing Lin Tian dressed neatly and pushing his bicycle in, he quickly approached him. After all, he could get some sunflower seeds from Lin Tian every few days. Lin Tian thought that he was probably the only one who was so generous in this compound. After all, the others had been watched by Yan Fugui for so many years.
"Xiao Lin, why are you back so late? If you were any later I would have closed the shop," Yan Fugui came over and said.
"Ah, I went to my master's house today," Lin Tian said directly. Anyway, this kind of thing can't be concealed in the future, so it is better to let Yan Fugui publicize it.
"What did you do? Did you become a disciple?" Yan Fugui asked with some confusion.
"Haven't I been studying medicine before? Someone introduced me to a master. I may have to trouble you more at night in the future. I may come back very late from now on." Lin Tian explained.
"Oh, that's great. It will be more convenient for us to see a doctor in our hospital in the future," Yan Fugui was very happy, but he might have been happy too early.
“I don’t have any objection. I’ll show it to you once I become a master. But most people can’t afford it.” Lin Tian looked at him with a smile in his heart.
"Oh, then why don't you charge less?" Yan Fugui thought that Lin Tian would charge a lot of money for medical treatment.
"Hey, Third Uncle, you misunderstood. My master is known as the Money Hand. He used to treat high-ranking officials and dignitaries, so he always uses very expensive medicines. For example, he often uses ginseng, ganoderma lucidum, deer antlers and the like." Lin Tian was a little gloating. The reason he said this was, firstly, because it was indeed the truth, and secondly, it was to save himself a lot of trouble in the future.
"That's such a pity. Most people really can't afford it," Yan Fugui said embarrassedly.
"Oh, Third Uncle, I really have something to trouble you with. I'll have to trouble you to sleep a little later and open the door for me at night. I will send you five kilograms of gray flour every month."
Lin Tian thought about it and decided that he had to give Yan Fugui some benefits. He couldn't just jump over the wall and come in every day. That would not look good and someone would report him.
I come home two or three hours late every day and always ask Yan Fugui to open the door. I guess he is not happy about it, so I might as well give him some benefits directly.
"Oh, oh, that's great, that's great." Yan Fugui was so happy. It was just a matter of getting less sleep at most.
"I have to go to my master's house after get off work every day to learn. I will probably be back around eight or nine o'clock. I'll trouble you then, Third Uncle. I'll give you the gray flour when I get off work tomorrow."
"Ah, haha, haha, no hurry, no hurry." Yan Fugui never expected that such a good thing would come to his door, so he responded quickly.
"Then I'll go home and rest first, see you tomorrow"
"See you tomorrow..." Yan Fugui was still immersed in Lin Tian's suggestion of giving him five kilograms of noodles, and he even stuttered when speaking.
On the third day, Lin Tian was still at work when a clerk from the drugstore informed him that a ceremony of apprenticeship would be held at his master's house in two days.
Now everyone in the store knew that Lin Tian had officially started learning the craft. However, no one in the store said anything, except Li Mancang, who just said that it would be fine if it didn't interfere with work.
After work, Lin Xia went home and informed his parents. They had already prepared everything for his apprenticeship. His mother even bought him a new set of clothes.
Except for the apprenticeship fee, the rest was prepared by Lin's father and mother. Most people may not know that learning Chinese medicine was very expensive in the early days. For example, Professor Dong of the current GC Academy spent two hundred dollars to become an apprentice in 1937, and even more. So Lin Tian prepared five hundred dollars and gave it to Lin's father, and then gave it to Wang Wujiu together.
"Why is there so much money?" Lin's mother asked in surprise.
"The cost of studying medicine and becoming an apprentice is quite high, that's just the rule in the industry," Lin Tian explained to his mother with a smile.
"Oh, it's so expensive, then you must study hard. But where do you get so much money?" Lin's mother asked again.
"Don't worry about it. I don't steal or rob. If your family is short of money, just tell me." Lin Tian did not directly answer Lin's mother's question.
Lin's mother wanted to ask more, but was stopped by Lin's father. In Lin's father's opinion, when a child grows up, he should not control him too much. It is also right to help the child now, which is a matter of courtesy.
When the appointed day arrived, Lin Tian and his father and mother all took leave and went to Wang Wujiu's house early.
When he arrived at Wang Wujiu's house, Lin Tian discovered that the portrait of the ancestor had been hung in the main hall, but the incense hall was not open. There were still some taboos at this time, so everyone was acting with caution.
I saw that they had arrived today, so I invited Lin's father and mother into the house to chat, and then sent Lin Tian and the second brother Wu Lei to the door to greet the guests. After Lin Tian and the second brother greeted each other, they went to the door to greet the guests.
In addition to the people from the sect, there are also several of Wang Wujiu's good friends who came to visit today. This means that Wang Wujiu is officially introducing to the circle, "Lin Tian is my last disciple. Please take care of him when I go out in the future."
Because the country has been established for several years, many etiquettes have been omitted. Wang Wujiu, Lin Tian's master's wife, and Lin's father and mother sat in the main hall. They kowtowed to the ancestor and Wang Wujiu respectively, and then served tea to be considered a successful apprenticeship.
There were not many people at the family dinner that followed, with only two tables. There were not many people from Wang Wujiu's school either, with only one of his senior brothers and two disciples, all of whom were not young anymore. The younger ones probably had not yet completed their apprenticeships, so they were not brought along.
There was also the manager of the pharmacy where Wang Wujiu worked, as well as several of Wang Wujiu's good friends in the same industry. After Wang Wujiu introduced them to Lin Tian one by one, the banquet officially began.
