Chapter 442 I will become your disciple and learn medicine from you

The next day.

It was the weekend and all three kids didn't have to go to school.

This week, the biggest and most celebrated festival in the country, is filled with joy everywhere.

The same is true on the islands.

Red flags are hung high on the docks, in military camps, on training grounds, and on mountain peaks.

In the family compound, a small red flag was hung on the door of every house.

Every time I go out, I see a sea of ​​red.

Not only is it festive, it is also very inspiring.

Another beautiful day.

After Jiang Rou finished her work in the house, she walked out and saw Liu Gensheng watering the vegetable garden. She called out to him.

"Gensheng, wash your hands, we'll be leaving soon."

Liu Gensheng looked up with the kettle in his hand and asked in a familiar tone.

"Are we going to Master Pei's clinic?"

"Yes, if we help a little more, the clinic will be open in a few days."

When Liu Gensheng heard this, he put down the kettle and immediately went to wash his hands as Jiang Rou said.

There is a happy smile on the dark little face.

Recently, retired doctor Pei Jun, with the support of the village chief, has begun planning a village clinic.

The village chief selected a dilapidated house near the commune as the site.

This location is close to the commune and the school, so the villagers are familiar with each other and it will be convenient for the elderly and children to see a doctor in the future.

The house needs to be repaired inside and outside, which takes a lot of effort.

Fortunately, Doctor Pei has always been kind and generous, and many people have benefited from his kindness, so many soldiers went to help.

They are very energetic and work efficiently and quickly.

Jiang Rou would go over from time to time to bring some food and drinks to Doctor Pei.

Not only did she go by herself, but she also took Liu Gensheng with her every time she went.

After a while, Liu Gensheng had already gotten used to it.

The little child had actually been waiting for Jiang Rou to speak since early this morning.

After hearing what Jiang Rou said, I finally laughed happily.

…

"Master Pei, we are here."

When they arrived at the place, Liu Gensheng took the lead and rushed over to greet Doctor Pei.

The square house can shelter from wind and rain, and has a complete glass wall and a lockable door.

There are two metal cabinets inside, which are specially used to store various medicines and medical tools.

There is a desk on the side, with a notebook, pen, ink, and an old desk lamp.

Doctor Pei was writing at his desk. He looked up when he heard the sound.

"Gensheng, good morning. You're here again. Have you grown taller? You look a little taller than before."

"Really? I've grown taller!"

When Liu Gensheng heard Doctor Pei say this, he smiled even more happily and touched his head.

Jiang Rou walked into the house immediately afterwards.

She was holding some things in her hands, including the fried chestnuts with osmanthus that she made last time and moon cakes for the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Doctor Pei was delighted when he saw it.

"Girl, didn't I tell you last time that you don't need to bring anything? I'm an old man and I have plenty to eat. I won't starve to death."

"Eating is eating, and mooncakes are mooncakes. Who doesn't eat mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

Jiang Rou said this as she handed the mooncake over.

Doctor Pei said no, but when he took the mooncake, his face was full of wrinkles from smiling.

Pick up the mooncake and smell it.

Yo!

Su-style puff pastry.

It is the most common mooncake in Dr. Pei’s hometown, and it has all the flavors of his childhood.

I'm so happy that I can't bear to let it go.

Jiang Rou looked around the house and asked.

"Doctor Pei, is there anything else I can help you with?"

"No, no, no, I am the only one who can store the newly delivered medicines. You don't know how to do it. Over there are some Chinese medicinal herbs that I recently dug up in the mountains. The weather has been good these few days, so I want to take them out to dry in the sun—"

Doctor Pei Jun was speaking.

Liu Gensheng spoke first.

"Master Pei, I know how to do this. I'll help you dry it."

The little child picked up the winnowing basket containing the Chinese medicinal herbs without saying a word.

Walk out with your arms wide open, toward the open space outside, where the sun is shining best.

He put down the dustpan first, then came back and got a bench, took the bench out and put it away, and then put the dustpan on the bench.

After putting it up, it seemed like the mission was accomplished.

However, Liu Gensheng did not think so. He did not go back to ask for credit from Doctor Pei. Instead, he stood in the sun and neatly arranged the herbs that had been messed up during the move.

Be serious and careful.

While Liu Gensheng was busy with all this, Doctor Pei Jun and Jiang Rou in the room kept staring at him silently.

Jiang Rou asked, "Doctor Pei, have you ever thought about taking in an apprentice?"

Doctor Pei Jun was stunned at first, then he understood what Jiang Rou meant.

He looked at Liu Gensheng outside the house, "Are you talking about this kid?"

"Yes." Jiang Rou responded, "After you have an apprentice, you will have someone to talk to every day, he can help you with work, bring you tea and water, remind you to put on clothes when it's cold, and make you food when you're hungry. He will think of you like a family member."

"Jiang girl, you don't sound like a disciple, but more like a daughter-in-law."

Doctor Pei joked while stroking his beard.

I was thinking seriously about what Jiang Rou said.

Since he retired, he no longer had to be on duty or report to the army every day. Before this clinic was built, he lived alone in an empty house.

Very quiet and lonely.

Jiang Rou ignored Doctor Pei's joke and spoke seriously.

"Gensheng can do everything I said. He is a good kid, you should know that."

"Yes, he is a good boy."

Doctor Pei Jun has always admired Liu Gensheng. Not only is such a young child able to endure hardships and work hard, but he also never complains about the unfairness of fate and is always full of energy.

He is a very good child.

Doctor Pei's expression began to be moved.

Jiang Rou only said half of what she said. There is another more important half.

"Doctor Pei, I'm telling you the truth. Not only do I want Gensheng to become your disciple and learn medicine from you, I also want you to adopt him and become his second grandfather."

Upon hearing this.

Doctor Pei’s eyes widened.

"Wait, Jiang girl, what do you mean? Are you going to leave the child to me?"

Jiang Rou did not deny this. Her eyes slowly shifted from the conversation with Doctor Pei to Liu Gensheng, who was working diligently and smiling happily outside the house.

She said with a slight sigh.

"Doctor Pei, you've noticed from the beginning, right? Gensheng feels more comfortable and happier when he's with you than when he's at our house. It's not that I want to push this child away, but maybe the fate between us is a little off. Gensheng's life was so hard before, and I hope he can be carefree and happy in the future. What do you think?"
