"Yes, let's go down the mountain. I have to tell your aunt about this good news and let her be happy too." A rare sincere smile appeared on Dong Wenhua's slightly old face.
He struggled to stand up, feeling much more comfortable all over, and exclaimed: "You're right, your master's detoxification skills have not deteriorated at all. You have learned a lot from him, but he is the only one who dares to use medicine so boldly."
The master once said that in the field of medicine, the junior fellow was particularly talented. He was bold and careful, and most importantly, he could improve medicine. However, he preferred to stick to the old ways.
"I have not only learned these, but also learned the massage techniques of my master. When I have the chance in the future, I will give my uncle a massage." Cheng Yunan discovered this when he just applied the medicine.
Maybe she didn't live well during the years of being sent down. Dong Wenhua had a knee injury and severe rheumatism, so she must have had a hard time in the winter.
"Girl, it seems that you have learned the wrong medical skills. You even learned Guangming's unique skills. Great! Guangming will have a successor!"
"Actually... I hadn't studied with my master for long when I was forced to go to the countryside. Before leaving, I taught myself with the medical books my master gave me." Cheng Yunan briefly talked about her current academic performance, but she didn't mention a word about her master's notes and medical books.
She would have to talk to her master tomorrow to confirm whether to tell him.
After all, everything she knew now came from Dong Wenhua, and she had no way of judging whether it was true or not.
Who knows whether his relationship with the master is good or bad?
There is no need to be on guard against others.
"Okay, let's go down the mountain, and tell me about your apprenticeship." Dong Wenhua took the initiative to change the subject.
He is so old, and his eyes are sharp. It seems that Cheng Yunan is still wary of him.
"Okay." Cheng Yunan took the initiative to carry the two backpacks. Dong Wenhua had been detoxified and had drunk spiritual spring water in advance, so he had no problem walking on his own at this moment.
The two of them were chatting casually, one in front and one behind.
The journey was long, and we soon arrived at the cowshed.
Because Dong Wenhua treated villagers before, she lived in the cowshed. In fact, the cows were tied to the back room. The front room was separated from the middle. Dong Wenhua and his wife lived on the left, and an old man lived on the right. This old man seemed to be a figure for the family, but it was a pity...
In the torrent of the times, any power of struggle will be ruthlessly crushed.
He had been here for two years, and his face did not have the knife-cut wrinkles that Dong Wenhua had.
Hearing the strange girl Cheng Yunan coming over, he walked over cautiously and looked at her.
"Brother He, are you feeling better? I'm sorry that I didn't take medicine for my cough today. I'll go back tomorrow when I feel better. You won't feel so bad at night after you take the medicine."
The reason why Dong Wenhua went into the mountains to collect herbs was because old man He had a cough these days. He had to sleep well at night because of the cough, so Dong Wenhua and his wife had no sleep.
They have to work during the day. How can they have the energy to work if they sleep well?
This old man has a cough, which is most likely to occur during this season and winter.
Therefore, Dong Wenhua decided to go into the mountains for this trip.
Last year, he managed to control his cough with herbal medicine, but this year...
Suddenly I thought of Cheng Yunan who was beside me. She just said that she had learned the massage techniques from her junior apprentice. Maybe massage combined with acupuncture and Chinese medicine could cure his cough.
Before Dong Wenhua could speak, a series of coughing sounds came from Old Man He's mouth.
After coughing for a long time, he finally stopped. During the process, Yunan secretly saw blood on the corners of his mouth.
This is not just a common cough, but a sign of pneumonia. In this era with such backward medical conditions, pneumonia can be fatal.
Old Man He hesitated, "It's just an old problem. I'm used to coughing. I'm sorry that you and your wife have to suffer with an old man like me."
"Look, Mr. He said that we are together and we will go through thick and thin together, so why would I implicate her?"
Cheng Yunan said at this time: "Uncle Dong, these are the herbs I picked. Maybe this old man can help. I need you to take them first for emergency."
Dong Wenhua hurriedly searched Cheng Yunan's backpack and found the licorice roots and other Chinese medicinal herbs for treating cough.
Dong Wenhua was not polite to Cheng Yunan, "I'll take these herbs from you first, and I'll return them to you after I go into the mountains to collect them in a few days!"
The main thing is that with these medicines, Mr. He’s condition can be controlled at least.
"Well, there are plenty of herbs in this mountain anyway. I can just pick them myself."
The sound of several people talking attracted the woman in the room.
"You old man, why do you ask a little girl to carry the basket when you are carrying it yourself? Don't stand outside and bring the things in first." The woman's voice was really soft.
This was Cheng Yunan's first impression of her.
In the setting sun, the woman stood at the door with her hands on her hips. She had a thin face with little flesh and high cheekbones. Don't be fooled by the woman's good-looking face now. It was because it was eroded by hunger and hard work, as well as wind and sun, and without good care, that it became like this.
But there is a saying that beauty is all skin and bones, and the woman in front of me is such a beauty.
From the facial features, you can still see that a woman was beautiful when she was young.
"It's like this, just now Doctor Dong was bitten by a poisonous snake on the mountain, I passed by and helped him, and sent him down the mountain!"
"What? Bitten by a poisonous snake? Old man, come into the house quickly and let me see what's going on." The woman's face changed drastically, and her originally loud voice was replaced by worry and fear.
Dong Wenhua comforted him cheerfully, "You know my medical skills very well. I can handle a little snake venom by myself. Look, I walked down the mountain by myself. Don't worry, I'm fine!"
The woman's expression turned cold. "You old man, you dare to lie to me. The poison from this venomous snake comes so quickly that there is no time for you to find an antidote. You must have run into this girl. Of course, you are just an old thing. You will be found no matter where you die!"
I finally understand. You think I am a burden to you and you want to die before me. I tell you, that's impossible.
My generation depends on you. It is you who will get rid of the debt. As long as I live, you just have to live a good life. Do you understand? "
As the woman spoke, her eyes became red. She was obviously scolding Dong Wenhua, but in fact she was motivating him and giving him the motivation to live.
Dong Wenhua paused, then smiled bitterly and said, "Don't worry, I can now cherish my life. What happened on the mountain was really an accident, and..."
Dong Wenhua took a look and closed the door, then pushed Cheng Yunan towards her and said in a low voice, "Qiuyan, what do you think this girl is?"
The woman rolled her eyes and said, "I've been in the village for six years. I even know who she is. I can't guess. Hurry up and say what you want to say. Don't waste time."
Dong Wenhua was not annoyed, but said happily: "I tell you, she is Guangming's little apprentice."
"What?! You didn't lie to me? She, she really is..."
Cheng Yunan nodded firmly, "Master, you are right. My master is Hu Guangming."
