Cheng Yunan applied a light layer on her face. Since she had used it before, she no longer felt the stinging sensation.
About twenty minutes later, Cheng Yunan washed off the ointment.
I looked at my face carefully and there was nothing wrong with it.
After a good sleep, I took the ointment and went straight to the clinic.
Doctor Hu came at seven o'clock. Seeing Cheng Yunan waiting here, he said cheerfully, "Comrade Xiao, you came so early! Have you been waiting for a long time?"
Cheng Yunan shook her head. "I didn't wait long. I just got here too. Doctor Hu, I'm really sorry to bother you!"
Give him the ointment.
Doctor Hu took it and sniffed it without saying anything. He pinched a little and licked it. Then he stroked his beard with a satisfied look on his face.
Doctors pay attention to observation, smell, and questioning. Doctor Hu smelled first, frowned, and then tasted. I'm afraid he detected the smell of white mud.
As expected of an old doctor, he is quite capable.
"Not bad, girl. This ointment is well made, but I tasted a little sweet. It seems that you added something else in it."
Cheng Yunan nodded, "Doctor Hu, you are amazing. After all, this stuff is to be applied on the face. I think the smell of all the medical stuff is too pungent, so I took some fragrant stuff to cover it up."
Doctor Hu nodded in agreement.
"I suppose you have tried this ointment yourself."
"Doctor Hu, you have a good eye. I tried it myself first, and the effect was surprisingly good. Thank you so much for your help. The medical book you gave me was very useful. To be honest, I read half of it yesterday and wrote down most of the herbs in it.
But I haven't seen the real thing, so I'm afraid it may not be accurate. I think I'd like you to get me a few more kinds of medicine later. I think it will be more accurate with the real thing."
Doctor Hu looked at her in surprise. "You only studied for one night, and you can remember half of the herbs? Including their medicinal properties?"
Although the book he was holding was a basic medical book, it contained more than 30 kinds of medicinal materials, half of which were 17 or 18. He could remember even their properties, so he must be a good candidate for studying medicine.
"Yeah, I remember them all!"
There are only a few kinds of herbs, and not many records of their efficacy. She can memorize them after reading them twice. It is not difficult for her.
If she hadn't had to make ointment yesterday, she could have memorized an entire medical book in one night.
"Girl, you shouldn't brag at your age."
"Doctor Hu, I never brag."
"Okay, let me test you!" Doctor Hu casually mentioned a medicine. Cheng Yunan didn't even think about it and started to talk about the characteristics and efficacy of the medicine.
The old man and the young man asked and answered questions, and soon they had talked about more than a dozen kinds of medicinal herbs.
Doctor Hu was impressed by Cheng Yunan's ability, "Girl, are you interested in medicine? Do you want to be my apprentice?"
"Ah?! Doctor Hu, are you serious?" Cheng Yunan came to this strange place without really thinking about what to do. When the college entrance examination is resumed in two years, she will definitely apply to university.
But before that, it would be nice to learn some pharmacology from Dr. Hu.
"Well, although my skills are not the most outstanding, I know a lot about massage. Even the provincial leaders have come to me. As for your desire to make this ointment, I can also help you. Girl, you have a natural talent for learning. Do you want to learn from me?"
"Learn, I'll learn!" Cheng Yunan continued:
"Master, please wait a moment. I'll be back soon."
After saying this, Cheng Yunan got up and ran out of the clinic.
How can one become a disciple without the apprenticeship gift?
Cheng Yunan ran a distance and took out a piece of pork belly from the space, which weighed a full three pounds. Cakes and brown sugar were indispensable, and the most important thing was wine.
Cheng Yunan went to a department store and bought two bottles of Moutai, spending a total of fourteen yuan.
After buying everything, he ran to the clinic and put all the things in front of Doctor Hu.
Then he knelt down and kowtowed three times, "Disciple Cheng Yunan, hello to the master!"
"What are you doing? I don't need this here! Hurry, get up." Doctor Hu was confused by her operation. He came to his senses and looked outside nervously. He was relieved when there was no one outside.
He is old now, and he was a little overwhelmed when giving massage to patients last year, so he wanted to take in an apprentice who could inherit his legacy.
The most powerful skill of their school is this massage technique. No one knows what happened to several of their fellow disciples in the past.
But he observed many people, but none of them suited his taste. It was rare that he found a man who really liked and respected the doctor, and who had such a good talent for learning medicine, so he decided to take him in as his apprentice.
"Okay, from now on you will be my apprentice, Hu Guangming. Wait, come in with me." Doctor Hu stood up and took Cheng Yunan to the backyard.
Behind this is a spacious courtyard. This is Doctor Hu's home.
The room was very simple, just a low house, but the whole yard was filled with the smell of medicine. There was an open door opposite, and looking inside from the yard, one could find layers of medicinal materials laid out inside.
There is also a cultivated vegetable garden in the yard, but it only grows medicinal herbs.
Bupleurum, Angelica dahurica, Plantain, Mugwort, Isatis root... and so on.
It can be seen that Dr. Hu is really a person who is passionate about medicine.
"Wait here first. I'll go in and get you something." He walked into the bedroom in the main house, and soon came out with two boxes and handed them to Cheng Yunan.
"My master passed this on to me when I became his disciple. Now I pass this on to you. I hope you can remember this tradition between us."
Cheng Yunan's expression became more serious. After opening it, he found a medical book inside with a white jade seal on it.
The white jade is warm, smooth and delicate, with excellent appearance. It is a good thing.
The words "Medical Ethics" are engraved on the seal.
“My master taught me that I must remember our medical heritage. The words ‘medical ethics’ seem simple but are the most difficult to uphold.
I hope you can also remember this legacy and never forget the compassion of a doctor."
"Please rest assured, Master. I will not disgrace the tradition of our school."
"Well, remember the acupuncture points in this medical book first. Come to me at 1:00 a.m. every day to learn medicine from me, especially my massage. You must learn it in the shortest possible time."
"Yes, Master. I will remember this."
"Well, it's getting late today. You should go back quickly."
Cheng Yunan took the ointment and went straight to the back door of the National Cotton Plant No. 1.
When she came over, she saw Wang Leying waving at her.
"Nannan, here!"
Cheng Yunan ran forward and heard Wang Leying complaining, "Why are you so late? I've been waiting for you here for more than half an hour!"
She didn't dare to stay here any longer, for fear that Yang Ru would catch her and report her to the team leader.
She hates Yang Ru so much now!
"I'm sorry, I was late because of something!" It was indeed her fault that she was late and made others wait in vain, so she should apologize.
Wang Leying just complained briefly and immediately took Cheng Yunan's arm, "It's okay, I forgive you!"
Then he couldn't wait to say, "Well... I've already seen a doctor and I got the medicine you prescribed. I've been drinking it for the past two days. How about you making the ointment for me? Did you bring it with you?"
After saying this, I felt embarrassed, "You know, I'm laughed at by people in the factory every day because of my face like this. I'm a little anxious."
