As soon as Cheng Tianlai took a bite, he felt that agreeing to treat Lu Chen's leg was the wisest choice.
He ate voraciously for a long time, and then gradually slowed down the speed at which he picked up the food.
Cheng Tianlai ate and drank his fill, stroking his bulging belly, and made up his mind:
"Mingyue, are you interested in studying medicine with me?"
"Study medicine with you?" Cheng Mingyue was a little confused after hearing this.
In her previous life, she majored in foreign languages and also took several other subjects. Who knew she would be so unlucky that the end of the world would come just after graduation, and she had no chance to use the foreign languages she learned.
She had never really thought about what she wanted to learn in this life, but after hearing what Cheng Tianlai said, she was really tempted.
Before Cheng Mingyue could say anything, Wang Guihua couldn't sit still anymore and slapped her in the face with some disapproval:
"You silly girl, your Seventh Uncle is willing to teach you. This is such a blessing. What are you still hesitating about?!"
In Wang Guihua's mind, no one else can take away what she has learned, let alone medical skills, which is the most practical technology.
It was a serious problem a few years ago, but now it seems that the management is not so strict, otherwise her old man would not have specially invited Cheng Tian to be the village doctor.
So when she saw Cheng Mingyue still hesitating, she became very anxious.
"Seventh Uncle, I'm willing to learn from you."
Cheng Mingyue hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.
Now that she has space, if she learns medical skills well, she will definitely be able to save many people. This may be the true meaning of the treasure of space given to her by God.
When Cheng Tianlai saw that Cheng Mingyue agreed, he was overjoyed. He thought that as long as Cheng Mingyue was his apprentice, then it would be legitimate for him to come and eat for free, and no one could say anything.
"Sister-in-law, go back and tell the village chief that I've made up my mind and am willing to be the village doctor."
Cheng Tianlai seemed to have come to his senses in an instant. The gloom between his brows finally disappeared, and his whole body was rejuvenated.
Wang Guihua was so excited that she couldn't clap her hands together, and kept muttering "good, good, good" to herself.
Just then, there was a knock on the gate and the voice of Carpenter Li came from outside the door.
"Mingyue, I brought you a bathtub."
Cheng Mingyue slapped her forehead, she had actually forgotten about this matter. She quickly agreed and ran to open the door.
Carpenter Li unloaded the bathtub from the cart and was directed by Cheng Mingyue to put it in the utility room.
He saw Wang Guihua and Cheng Tianlai at Cheng Mingyue's house, and without asking much, he just said hello and then said to Cheng Mingyue: "Mingyue, if you need anything in the future, just come to Uncle Li."
Cheng Mingyue smiled and nodded, then sent him to the gate of the courtyard. After he walked away, she closed the gate again.
Cheng Tianlai shook his head: "A good person has to degrade himself into this half-human, half-ghost appearance. I don't know what he is trying to achieve."
Wang Guihua sighed and said, "Who says it's not true? Carpenter Li has skills, and his family conditions are among the best in our village. He only has one daughter, and she is so filial. I don't know how many people in the village envy him.
Now, you hang your head every day, looking as if you can't face people. Why bother? "
Cheng Mingyue, however, did not have so many feelings. In her heart, Carpenter Li was not wronged at all. Since he could not resist the temptation, he had to bear the consequences himself.
"Seventh Uncle, don't think too much, let's show Lu Chen his legs first."
Cheng Tianlai curled his lips and said, "Look how anxious you are! Men can't be spoiled, you know? Look at what happened to Li Da Laba now. This is a lesson for us. You should learn from it."
Cheng Mingyue didn't want to argue with this chatterbox, otherwise it would never end, so she could only nod in response.
Lu Chen, who had been sitting there silently, felt very unhappy when he heard Cheng Mingyue's response.
"I won't."
"Ah?" Cheng Mingyue was very puzzled.
What the hell is going on? It's completely irrelevant and I don't know what it means.
Lu Chen explained: "I won't let you end up like Li Da Laba."
Cheng Mingyue's face flushed red. She glared at Lu Chen without saying anything.
Wang Guihua and Cheng Tianlai were very jealous. They were old and could not be as shameless as the young people.
When they were young, they would never dare to say these things in front of others. They were so embarrassed.
"Okay, okay, stop being so cheesy. Hurry up and finish it. I have to go back to sleep." Cheng Tianlai urged unhappily.
Next, Cheng Tianlai took out all the things he would need later from the box.
He asked Cheng Mingyue to bring out a bowl, filled it with wine, and then drove Cheng Mingyue and Wang Guihua out.
"Uncle Qi, didn't you ask me to study medicine? I want to go in and take a look, and help you at the same time."
Cheng Mingyue wanted to stay inside. In case of any emergency, she would feel more at ease inside.
Cheng Tianlai was not moved at all. He had his own considerations. Lu Chen was Cheng Mingyue's man. If she saw the bloody scene of him treating Lu Chen's leg, she would inevitably be scared. If something happened, it would affect her treatment.
Even if she wants to study medicine, she has to take it step by step. She can't just show her something so shocking. If she is scared away, where will he go to get food and drink?
Cheng Tian said he didn't agree to anything and Cheng Mingyue just watched from inside.
"Be quiet! Shouting and yelling will affect my operation. I won't be responsible if anything goes wrong."
Wang Guihua was shocked and quickly pulled Cheng Mingyue and took her to sit on a bench in the yard.
He consoled her, "Don't worry, Yue'er. Your seventh uncle is a very skilled doctor. I've heard from your grandfather before that he inherited his father's true medical skills."
Cheng Mingyue sat on the stool and began to recall the description of Cheng Tianlai in the book.
It seems that there really is such a passage!
It is said that his ancestor was once an imperial physician, but because of party disputes he lived in seclusion in this remote area.
After the reform and opening up, Cheng Tianlai left here and opened a clinic in Xifu. Every day, people from all over the country lined up outside his clinic. He even treated several senior leaders from Beijing.
Soon more than two hours passed.
Only at the beginning did they hear Lu Chen groan a few times, and the room at the back was very quiet, with no movement at all.
Cheng Mingyue comforted herself in her heart: No news is good news.
After more than an hour, Cheng Tianlai finally staggered open the door and said, "It's done."
Cheng Mingyue first helped Cheng Tianlai sit down on the bench, poured him a glass of water, and then asked anxiously: "Seventh Uncle, what happened?"
"I've already fixed his bones, but his leg isn't as simple as just fixing the bones. As I told you before, his calves are atrophied, and that needs to be treated properly. I'm not sure I can cure him right now."
Cheng Tianlai now regretted not studying medicine properly over the years. If only...
Alas, there is no point in saying more.
