Zeng Hong shook his head. "Gu Rong told me that he was picked up by his adoptive parents from the Jiurong Valley, so there is a 'Rong' in his name. As for how he came here, who his parents were, what they looked like, and what their names were, he doesn't remember anything."
Pei Tiantian's eyes became thoughtful.
In the novel, the villain was brought here from Beijing by the He family’s enemies.
It is very likely that this incident caused a great psychological trauma to the one-year-old Gu Rong.
Not only did Gu Rong lose his previous memories, he even lost his voice completely due to the shock.
Pei Tiantian met Zeng Hong's eyes. Although he didn't say anything, when he talked about Gu Rong, he couldn't hide his concern in his eyes.
This old man Zeng is actually a good person.
A sincere smile appeared on Pei Tiantian's face, "Grandpa Zeng, I am willing to take you as my master."
She didn't expect that she would have such bad luck.
She thought she would never be able to meet Lin Chao, but unexpectedly she met Lin Chao's master by accident.
Lin Chao’s master must be more powerful than Lin Chao. If she becomes his disciple, then wouldn’t the heroine be his niece?
Pei Tiantian was immediately overjoyed.
Moreover, if she could learn medicine from Zeng Hong in the future, she would not only be able to learn proper medical skills, but she could also take out the medicinal herbs in her space openly.
This is a win-win situation.
…
Gu Rong fried the cassia seeds in the pot until the color deepened. After hearing a slight popping sound, he scooped the cassia seeds out of the pot and waited for them to cool down.
Then he came out of the small room and walked to the square table in front of the medicine bowl. He placed the medicine cutting knife, scales and other tools neatly, and then put some medicinal materials left in the paper bag on the table into the medicine bowl.
Gu Rong also swept the floor in the room and wiped the table before coming out of the room.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I came out, I saw Zeng Hong on the corridor looking at Pei Tiantian with a smile, his hands pinching her two little pigtails, and his attitude was much more affectionate than just now.
"Sweet girl, come on, call me Master."
Zeng Hong leaned on the railing of the corridor and said with a smile.
"Hello, Master!"
Pei Tiantian shouted politely, and bowed along with her little body.
When normal people do this, it gives people a sense of solemnity.
The only thing is that the person doing this action is a five-year-old little kid, which gives people a funny and cute feeling.
Sure enough, Zeng Hong couldn't stop laughing when he saw it.
Gu Rong: “…”
It only took him half an hour to fry the medicine and clean the place.
He did not pay attention to what was happening outside, nor did he specifically listen to Pei Tiantian's thoughts.
How did Pei Tiantian become Zeng Hong's disciple?
What exactly happened between them?
Although Gu Rong was confused, he did not show it, so in the eyes of Pei Tiantian and Zeng Hong, he always had a blank expression on his face.
Gu Rong walked to the side of the corridor and squatted down to tidy up the herbs that were drying on the corridor.
Pei Tiantian turned around and saw Gu Rong busy at work.
He just came out, and when he got outside he lowered his head and worked silently, with no intention of getting involved with the two of them.
Gu Rong took some dried herbs back into the house, then opened the medicine bucket and sorted the herbs into the medicine bucket.
Pei Tiantian felt helpless and sighed in her heart.
[The villain is too honest, doesn't he know how to take a break? He has been working alone all the time, isn't he tired? ]
[Gu Rong is a good guy. It would be great if he could work for me forever. Unfortunately, it’s only three years.]
Gu Rong, who was sorting medicinal herbs with his back to them, was listening silently to Pei Tiantian and Zeng Hong's thoughts.
Pei Tiantian puffed out her cheeks and used her eyes to condemn Zeng Hong, who seemed very relaxed and contented standing aside.
Zeng Hong noticed Pei Tiantian's strongly condemning look and felt a little uncomfortable. He quickly said, "Gu Rong, come and sit for a while. Take a rest and we'll be busy later."
After hearing this, Gu Rong put down the herbs in his hand, walked out of the house and sat on the stool.
"Brother Gu Rong, I have already taken Grandpa Zeng as my teacher and am learning medicine from him. So when you come to work here in the future, I can work with you. Brother Gu Rong, are you happy?"
Pei Tiantian tilted her head, her pair of grape-like eyes full of smiles.
Gu Rong: “…”
Gu Rong glanced at Pei Tiantian, then at Zeng Hong.
There was a hint of doubt in his eyes.
He took out a notebook and a pen from his body and wrote a "?" on the notebook.
Obviously, he was very confused inside.
Zeng Hong explained: "You don't know, Tiantian, at such a young age, already knows so many medicinal herbs and their effects. I think she is talented, so I accepted her as my disciple."
"Brother Gu Rong, when I have learned the medical skills, if you feel uncomfortable in the future, you can come to me and I will treat you for free!"
Pei Tiantian patted her chest and promised.
Gu Rong met Pei Tiantian's grape-shaped eyes that were filled with smiles.
Innocent and pure, like the shining stars.
This time, Gu Rong did not hear any of Pei Tiantian's thoughts.
This means that what she said was genuine.
Gu Rong's heart skipped a beat for unknown reasons, and he avoided her gaze uncomfortably.
After sorting the herbs drying on the corridor, Zeng Hong asked Gu Rong to go back.
After all, Gu Rong is only eight years old now, and Zeng Hong is not really a fool. It is impossible for him to let Gu Rong do a whole day's work.
So, Gu Rong took Pei Tiantian out of Zeng Hong's bamboo house, walked through the bamboo forest, and returned to the village.
"Brother Gu Rong, do you know who my master is? Why does he live here alone?"
Pei Tiantian looked up and asked.
Gu Rong shook his head.
There is no family with the surname Zeng in Huangsha Village, and no one knows where this old man Zeng Hong came from.
At that time, he encountered a large group of wild wolves in the mountains, and was bitten on the calf by one of them.
In despair, he happened to meet Zeng Hong who was collecting herbs in the mountains.
Zeng Hong, an old man, remained calm in the face of the group of wild wolves. He just took out a bottle from his pocket and sprinkled the powder in the bottle at the wolves.
The group of vicious wolves immediately ran away like mice seeing a cat.
Only then did Gu Rong survive from the wolf's mouth.
In the next few days, Gu Rong recuperated in the bamboo house. He also witnessed how powerful Zeng Hong's medical skills were and how broad his knowledge was.
So Gu Rong wrote to Zeng Hong and told him that he wanted him to help check his throat.
Unexpectedly, after Zeng Hong examined it, he said it could be cured.
Gu Rong suddenly felt that a ray of light finally began to shine into his originally gloomy life.
