If you want to learn medicine from a master, you have to go and ask in person, which shows your sincerity.
Xu Nanxing had no intention of speaking up for the two children. She felt that Xiaotian was already capable of standing on his own, and was organized and responsible, so he would definitely be able to do it.
Moreover, the two children have been studying in the clinic for so long, and Dr. Chen is willing to teach them about herbal medicine, so he should be willing to teach them as well.
As for whether to formally accept them or just teach them casually, it all depends on their luck.
Xu Nanxing felt that Dr. Chen's medical knowledge should also be inherited. As long as Xiaotian and Xiaoyu worked hard and studied medicine seriously, they would sooner or later be recognized by Dr. Chen.
Sure enough, after a while, the two children ran back happily.
Xiaoyu: "Sister Nanxing, Brother Chuwen is willing to teach us!"
Xiaotian: "Xiaoyu, you should call me Doctor Chen or Teacher Chen, not Brother!"
Then he said happily to Xu Nanxing, "Sister Chen, Doctor Chen said he is willing to teach us two and asked us to go to the clinic and learn to identify herbs from him when we are free."
My child, you are happy too early!
Being willing to teach and being willing to accept disciples are two different things!
However, it would be good if the two children could find a good teacher to teach them Chinese medicine.
As the saying goes, "The master leads you to the door, but the practice is up to you." After that, it all depends on your luck!
Xu Nanxing saw through it but didn't say anything. He just said, "Doctor Chen is willing to teach you, so you must study hard! I'm going to the county town in a couple of days and will see if I can bring you some medical books!"
He also specifically reminded her, "Doctor Chen works at the clinic every day. If you go to study during his working hours, people will say that Doctor Chen is not doing his job properly. So, you should study secretly and don't tell anyone! Otherwise, it will harm Doctor Chen!"
The two children nodded hurriedly when they heard this.
After dinner, the two little guys went to the clinic again and came back with a piece of paper.
Xu Nanxing took a look and saw that it was covered with densely written words. "The origin of medicine is Qi Huang's Lingshu, Su Wen, and Nan Yang's Six Classics, which distinguish the sages..."
"This is……"
Xiaotian: "Doctor Chen said this is the 'Three Character Classic of Medicine,' the first introductory lesson. If we want to learn medicine from him, my sister and I should memorize it well, because he's going to test us!"
To study Chinese medicine, it seems that you must have good Chinese language scores, otherwise all these Chinese medicine works are written in classical Chinese. If your Chinese scores are poor, you may not be able to understand them.
Xu Nanxing looked a little confused, she couldn't understand classical Chinese either!
"Oh my god, do you have a dictionary?"
"……No."
"If you come across a word you don't know, you can ask me. But I can't help you with the meaning of the Three Character Classic. You'll have to ask Doctor Chen."
"……knew."
I feel sorry for Xiaotian who doesn’t like to study for a second.
Xiaotian, who was about to recite the Three Character Classic, suddenly put down the book and ran back into the house. After a while, he came back with a few books.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the picture book that Xu Nanxing had given them before.
Xiaotian handed the comic book to Xu Nanxing and said, "Sister Xu, we've finished reading the comic book. My sister and I will be studying seriously with Doctor Chen from now on, so we won't have time to read the comic book anymore. Let me return the book to you!"
After hearing this, Xu Nanxing looked at Xiaotian with admiration. The little guy was quite strong-willed. He didn't want to be distracted by the picture book, so he just returned the book to her.
Xiaoyu stared at him with wide eyes, reluctantly watching her brother return all the picture books to Nanxing. However, she also knew that her brother had made a decision, and she had to listen to him.
Seeing that Xiaoyu was reluctant to put down the picture book but remained silent, Xu Nanxing couldn't help but touch the little guy's head.
"hey-hey!"
"Xiaoyu is so good, you should learn from your brother!"
"Yes, I will!"
After returning to the room, Xu Nanxing specifically searched the Internet to find out what beginners of traditional Chinese medicine should learn.
There are so many posts and videos of Teacher Ni Haixia!
Found a post about the first step of Chinese medicine.
I looked it up and found that in ancient times, beginners of Chinese medicine all laid the foundation by memorizing classics such as "Three Character Classic of Medicine", "Binghu Pulse Science", and "Ode to the Properties of Medicines".
Modern TCM education is more substantial in content and is divided into two core courses: basic TCM theory and TCM diagnosis.
Xu Nanxing also saw that there were related online courses later.
It turns out he sells courses!
I clicked on it and saw that I could watch it without purchasing anything!
Last time I watched a movie online, I could watch the whole movie without buying VIP membership. This time, I can watch the whole course without paying any fees!
The space wifi is really awesome!
Xu Nanxing looked for a while. The teacher's face was not visible, and the interface displayed the courseware prepared by the teacher in advance.
The teacher teaches according to the content of the courseware.
After searching for the "Three Character Classic of Medicine" on the Internet, Xu Nanxing took out a pen and paper and started copying it.
The next day, Xu Nanxing took the copied paper and handed it to his uncle.
He then recounted what happened yesterday. "Xiaotian and Xiaoyu are interested in herbal medicine, so I suggested they study Traditional Chinese Medicine with Dr. Chen from the clinic. This is the Three Character Classic of Medicine Dr. Chen gave them. I copied it out and showed it to my two cousins to see if they'd like to learn as well."
Xu Nanxing thinks that traditional Chinese medicine has a promising future, but it is not necessary for everyone to learn it.
However, her best friend is her mother who took her to many interest classes, trying them one by one until she found the one she was very interested in and then focused on learning it.
Many people actually don’t know what they like, what they are suitable for, or what they are good at.
What my friend’s mother did was to let her try them one by one, and finally she figured it out.
My friend has achieved great success and satisfaction in this specialty.
Xu Nanxing was actually very envious of her friend for having such a caring mother.
Her parents only provide her with enough living expenses, and remember to give her birthday gifts and red envelopes during the Chinese New Year and other festivals every year, but they don't spend time with her, nor do they pay attention to what she likes or does.
So Xu Nanxing grew up to be a third-generation rich man who accomplished nothing and had no special skills.
Xu Nanxing thought that he could let his two cousins try to see if they were suitable for studying medicine.
If that doesn’t work, you can slowly find something else you’re good at and learn it.
However, Uncle Chen was a little hesitant because traditional Chinese medicine was the focus of the "Four Olds" campaign.
Since the Cultural Revolution, many veteran Chinese medicine practitioners have been overthrown and many Chinese medicine works have been burned.
How can one learn without a teacher or books? Is it just word of mouth?
Uncle Chen expressed his concerns.
Xu Nanxing also understood. "Uncle, you can't just focus on the present, you have to look at the bigger picture. Traditional Chinese medicine is the most suitable for our people. Our country is isolated by the two major groups and can only develop on its own. Western medicine not only relies on foreign theories, but also has to be imported for machinery, tools and medicines. How can we develop?"
"Traditional Chinese Medicine is the bridge that takes us to the international stage!"
