At least at that time, she could still use her medical skills to treat them instead of being helpless.
If the medical skills she learned were not formal, then not only would she not be able to save people, she would also harm them.
Therefore, she couldn't agree rashly before figuring out the old man's identity.
Zeng Hong was also stunned for a moment when he heard her answer.
Does this girl know how many people asked to be his disciple, but he refused?
She actually rejected him.
"Why not? My medical skills are very advanced!"
Zeng Hong asked with a frown.
Pei Tiantian certainly wouldn't say that she doubted his medical skills, so she used the villain as an excuse: "Because you, Grandpa Zeng, are not good to Brother Gu Rong. He is only eight years old, and you let a child like him work for you for three years for nothing. This is clearly bullying a child, bullying the weak with the strong!"
Zeng Hong didn't expect Pei Tiantian to say such a thing. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "So you did it because of Gu Rong."
"Yes, I see that you treat Brother Gu Rong so badly, so you must not be much better to me!"
Pei Tiantian said with a firm tone.
"Then you know, it was Gu Rong who proposed to work for me for three years. I didn't force him!"
Zeng Hong said slowly.
Pei Tiantian was stunned. She obviously didn't expect it to be like this. She was stunned for a moment, "Really?"
"Of course," Zeng Hong patted Pei Tiantian's little head, "and Gu Rong is working for me for a fee, not for free as you said!"
"What's paid?"
"I promised Gu Rong that I would cure his throat within three years, so during this period, he will help me with the work."
Zeng Hong said.
Cure your throat?
Can the villain's throat be cured?
Pei Tiantian's eyes lit up. "Grandpa Zeng, can you really cure Brother Gu Rong's throat? Can you make him speak like a normal person?"
Zeng Hong snorted coldly, "Of course, am I lying? I tell you, little girl, you can say whatever you want, but you can't question my medical skills. If I say I can cure it, I can cure it!"
"Thank you, Grandpa!"
Pei Tiantian had a big smile on her face.
The doubts in my heart grew stronger.
If it is true what the old man said, if he can cure the villain, then the villain can speak? But why is it that the villain in the novel is still a mute until his death?
Everyone in Beijing knows that the person in power in the He family this generation is a mute.
Doesn’t this further prove that Zeng Hong failed to cure the patient? It seems that his medical skills must be not good enough.
Seeing that Pei Tiantian didn't speak for a long time, Zeng Hong spoke up: "So girl, do you agree or not now? Let me tell you, when I was in Beijing... when I was working in other places, a lot of people were vying to be my disciple, but I refused. Now, I'm old, and it's lonely without a little disciple to serve me. Seeing that you have some talent, I won't be picky and will accept you as my disciple reluctantly."
After hearing this, Pei Tiantian couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth.
This sounds like self-praise.
It’s really unbelievable.
Pei Tiantian snorted, twisted her little butt and looked at the Chinese herbal medicines on the corridor. She rolled her eyes at him and didn't bother to pay any attention to him.
Zeng Hong got a blank look for no reason, and couldn't help laughing: "You have a weird temper, little girl, but I still like you."
Pei Tiantian: “…”
Zeng Hong walked to the corridor, picked up a thick yellow book next to it, and slowly wrote something on it with a pen.
Pei Tiantian looked at the herbs for a while and couldn't help but glance at Zeng Hong. She was immediately attracted by the book in Zeng Hong's hand.
The yellow book had four big characters written on it: “Medical Encyclopedia”.
Pei Tiantian was stunned for a moment.
Isn’t “Medical Encyclopedia” a book by Lin Chao?
It is said that it was passed on to Lin Chao by his master before his death. It records the cases his master had encountered throughout his life, the corresponding solutions, and various strange secret recipes developed by his master.
Moreover, this book was finally passed on to Lin Chao's only disciple Xue Ningxiang. It was with the careful teaching of Lin Chao and the study of this "Medical Encyclopedia" that Xue Ningxiang finally acquired unique medical skills.
Pei Tiantian looked at Mr. Zeng Hong's appearance and estimated that he should be quite old, at least over seventy years old, while Lin Chao was only in his early forties.
Could it be that this old man Zeng Hong is Lin Chao’s master?
Pei Tiantian's eyes were a little straight.
No, what if the book just has the same name?
Zeng Hong wrote for a while, muttered a few words to himself, and then put the book down.
Pei Tiantian hurried over with her short legs, "Grandpa Zeng, can you let me see your book?"
"Didn't the little girl just ignore me?" Zeng Hong snorted.
Pei Tiantian was speechless for a moment.
Seeing the little girl's embarrassment, Zeng Hong laughed, didn't embarrass her anymore, and gave her the book.
The book was very heavy, and Pei Tiantian's small hands couldn't hold it, so she could only put the book on the ground and opened the first page to see the words "Vinegar residue can treat back and leg pain."
It reads: "Take three catties of vinegar residue, fry it in a pan, put it in a small cloth bag and apply it to the affected area for one to two hours before going to bed. The affected area will be healed within four days."
Pei Tiantian's pupils constricted.
In the novel, Xue Ningxiang once used this folk remedy on Gu Yang's mother Zhang Guifen.
It seems that this book is really Lin Chao’s "The Holy Book of Medicine".
It turns out that this old man Zeng Hong is Lin Chao's master.
She really looked down on others.
This old man Zeng Hong is a man of real talent and knowledge.
Otherwise he wouldn't always speak so conceitedly.
In the original plot, the villain’s throat had never recovered, so it was not a problem with the old man’s medical skills.
But because Zeng Hong had passed away, he didn't have time to cure the villain's throat.
Pei Tiantian glanced at the energetic old man Zeng Hong. His old eyes were sparkling and she could hardly believe it.
He looked so healthy, how could he die suddenly?
Pei Tiantian suppressed her depressed mood and asked with a frown, "Grandpa Zeng, can you tell me first, what's wrong with Brother Gu Rong's voice? Why did he become hoarse?"
Zeng Hong restrained his smile and said in a deep voice: "Speaking of this, I was also very surprised at first. I checked Gu Rong's throat. His larynx and vocal cords were intact. There was no sign of any damage. Logically, he should be able to speak."
"Then why is he still mute?"
Pei Tiantian asked curiously.
"There is only one possibility, that is, Gu Rong could speak originally, but he may have been overly frightened when he was a child and lost his voice, and he has not recovered to this day."
"Then Great Grandpa, have you ever asked Brother Gu Rong what happened when he was a child?"
