Doctor Zhang sighed helplessly when he saw that Xiao Guocheng was too stubborn to think of the key point.
"Ah, you old man, why can't you figure it out?"
"Since he can't stay in Gujia Village forever, then you can just follow him back to the city.
My house is very close to theirs, and his brother often comes to visit me. Why don’t you just stay at my place?”
As for Xiao Guocheng, he didn't want to go back to the city simply because he didn't want to be bothered by those people.
If I go to stay at an old friend's house and no one knows, it's okay.
It seemed that his young disciple was unwilling to stay. If he continued talking, he would really not become his disciple.
If the mountain doesn't come to me, I will go to the mountain.
He nodded. "Sure, I think this is a good idea. What do you think, Xiao Zhuzi?"
Little Zhuzi still frowned, looking unhappy. The old man had just asked his sister to leave him alone, and he was a very vengeful person.
Seeing that the child was acting awkwardly, Gu Chun patted his little butt.
"Xiao Zhuzi, Master Xiao said he's moved to the city. Do you still want to learn martial arts?"
Xiao Zhuzi could only nod, "Grandpa Xiao, then come home with us. If you never ask me to leave you alone again, I will become your disciple."
Old Man Xiao smiled bitterly and shook his head, "You little bastard, I've never bowed my head to anyone. You're really capable."
Little Bamboo was happy again, "Of course, Little Bamboo is the best."
After discussing things, Gu Chun and Gu Xia prepared to go back and prepare things for their younger brother to become their apprentice.
Xiao Zhuzi went to find Gu Dong and Gu Qinghai to do horse stance together.
At that time, many children wanted to learn martial arts.
However, the villagers had seen the people in the shed being criticized and educated, so they were still worried about letting their children go there.
So in the end, only Gu Qinghai and his sister and brother came.
Doctor Zhang stayed. Since he had found his old friend, he didn't plan to go to Gu Dazhi's house to disturb him.
There is no need to ask Xiao Guocheng's opinion.
Just ask Gu Xia to deliver his luggage later.
When Gu Chun returned to Uncle Gu's house, he discussed the matter of the apprenticeship gift with Gu Xia and Gu Qiu.
Now that my family is well off, I have to prepare the necessary gifts for becoming a disciple.
A pound of meat, a box of pastries, a bunch of celery, and a gift.
They were in the village and meat was hard to buy, so they planned to buy a chicken from the villagers.
You can buy cakes at the supply and marketing cooperative in town.
Uncle Gu has celery at home.
As for the gifts, I can only wait until I return to the city to get them.
After explaining everything, Uncle Gu took the siblings to the supply and marketing cooperative.
To be honest, the pastries here are very good, but they are very expensive and the supply is very limited. You need to pay for the pastries with a ticket.
The tickets Gu Chun brought were just enough to buy a pound of pastries.
I have to say that the things of this era are made of real materials.
The ingredients used in the shortbread include flour, lard, sugar, and peanuts. There are no additives and it smells really delicious.
If she had enough tickets, she would have bought another pound for her uncle and others to try.
When I got home, I had chicken soup made by my aunt He Ling for dinner.
I have always heard from the children that my aunt’s cooking is delicious, and it really lives up to her reputation.
The chicken soup was sweet and refreshing, not greasy at all, and it was also very delicious with some mushrooms added in.
Gu Chun drank so much that he kept giving thumbs up and praising his aunt.
My aunt was so happy with her praise that she felt like a famous chef.
Gu Zhenzhu admired her cousin for making her mother dizzy with just a few words.
My cousin is really a social talent. In the city, everyone, whether it is the director of the textile factory, the manager of the garment factory or her colleagues, likes her very much.
When she arrived in the village, she was still able to capture the heart of her mother, a rural woman, in a short time.
-
The next day, after preparing everything, Gu Chun took Xiao Zhuzi to become his apprentice.
After presenting the gift, Xiao Zhuzi offered tea and kowtowed to Master Xiao, and the ceremony was completed.
Master Xiao was very happy and gave Xiao Zhuzi a copy of "The First Level of Xiao Family Boxing".
This was something he had tried his best to preserve before the accident.
There is a complete set of twelve books.
I just want to pass it on to someone who has an heir.
The master will give this book to every disciple of the Xiao family when they start learning.
Master Xiao only wanted to accept one apprentice in his lifetime, so this book can be said to be a unique copy.
Gu Chun carefully reminded him to keep the book well and not to damage it.
This kind of rare copy is hard to find in later generations. Now Xiao Zhuzi has one in her hands, and she is afraid that the children will damage it without knowing better.
She would feel more distressed than Master Xiao.
Xiao Zhuzi held the book and said with a smile, "Don't worry, sister, I will protect this book well."
Gu Chun nodded and touched his head.
When Xiao Zhuzi started learning martial arts, Doctor Zhang and Gu Xia had already agreed with the village party secretary to open a free clinic in the village.
All villagers can come to take pulses and see doctors. There is no consultation fee, but a small labor fee will be charged for the medicine bags, after all, they were dug and dried by Gu Xia.
If you don't have money, you can exchange it for food.
When the villagers heard that they could get free medical treatment, they lined up and came to Uncle Gu's yard.
This time, Gu Xia did not act as an assistant, but sat down to see the patient together.
The purpose of Doctor Zhang going to the countryside is also to let him accumulate experience. Those who practice medicine must learn the real things through practice.
Observe, smell, ask and feel, all of these need to be experienced personally.
Gu Xia took the pulse of an uncle and looked at his face, eyes and tongue coating.
"The complexion is dark yellow, and the tongue coating has teeth marks, which may indicate damp heat. Will there be bloating, constipation, and sticky stools?"
The uncle nodded, "Yes, yes. You are right. What should I do? You said there is nothing delicious here, why am I bloated?"
