"What about us? You women all have work to do, you can't leave us men behind?"
Looking at the excited uncles, including his taciturn old father, he was now looking at him with resentment.
It was as if she, his daughter, had done him a great injustice.
Xiushui was embarrassed and quickly grabbed the old lady's arm.
"Grandma, grandma, when did our family open a pharmacy?"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter. Some scratched their heads, some looked up at the sky.
The old lady was also happy.
He pointed at this group of troublesome children and grandchildren with his fingers.
"They are all so capable now. There is no trace of the pharmacy, but they are thinking about taking on new jobs."
Li quickly came over to appease them. "Mom, we know we were wrong."
"Well, you are indeed wrong. You made a mistake in not making good arrangements for an old lady like me.
Everyone has a place, but there is no place for me, an old lady.
Are you disgusted with me because I'm old, or because I say there are more of you?"
Everyone was stunned, Xiushui and Ruzhu refused to protest.
"Nanny, why are you joining them in making trouble?"
The old lady waved her hand, signaling everyone to be quiet.
"I think it would be a great idea for us to open a Wen's Pharmacy. Every profession has its own specializations, and our family has the opportunity to learn these medical principles and treat patients.
Our Wen family now has a direction for development in the future, so how can this be bad?"
Seeing her seriousness, Uncle Wen's face turned serious. "Mom, are you serious? In other words, our family's future development is to develop in the field of medicine?"
"Well, that's right, but you can still take the exam if you want.
The worst that can happen is that we'll separate you, but don't rush to say we don't want to split up.
If we divide the family, it will only be for outsiders to see. Our family is still fine.
If you can succeed in official circles, our family will be considered a family with a strong backer, and others will have to think twice before bullying us.
In this world, it would be very difficult to have good medical skills but no good background.
I don't want our family to struggle to the end, only to become someone else's stepping stone, or even someone else's slave."
The old lady's words were not really scary.
In ancient times, status and position were very important. If refugees like them had a good skill, they would most likely become rich.
Or you could be a slave of a powerful person, locked up and threatened by your family, the kind that makes you unable to even jump out.
When Wen Liu thought about what he had seen and heard, he instantly became serious.
"Mom, I will study hard and strive for good results in the imperial examination. I also need to learn how to be an official and grasp the right balance."
"Well, it seems you've learned a lot recently. Keep it up. Studying is for the examination, but being an official is also a science.
Why do many scholars fail to become good officials, while many businessmen can thoroughly study the official career?
All of this is reflected in the art of being a human being. The so-called emotional intelligence is actually about thinking more about others.
I hope that when you deal with people and things, no matter who you are dealing with, you will first think from other people's perspective.
For example, if there's a bad guy, you have to think about what he's going to do next and how you're going to respond."
The old lady's lectures were very instructive to her children and grandchildren.
"Since everyone thinks that the Wen family can pursue a medical career, we'll open a clinic after we settle down."
"good."
"If you want to open a clinic, you must each do your job and learn as much as you can on the road.
Among the men in the Wen family, the sixth one is temporarily responsible for studying, and also does some writing and painting work on weekdays.
Second generation, you guys should also learn medical theory for the time being. Of course, the most important thing is to learn how to grow medicinal herbs.
You can think about these aspects on your own when you are free. When Xiu'er has time, let her guide you."
Everyone looked at Xiushui. Xiushui kept a straight face and did not dare to deny the old lady's arrangement.
It was her father who spoke up for his daughter. "Mom, Xiu'er doesn't know how to plant, does she?"
"She will definitely understand. You guys are all stupid. If I say she understands, then she will understand. Just ask her and follow her instructions. As for the reason, don't ask. If you ask, I won't tell you."
Everyone: The old lady is actually naughty, but such a mother (grandmother) is quite interesting.
"Yes, Xiushui definitely understands. Don't ask why. The only thing she knows is that you can do what she can do!
If you are not smart, just listen to the smart people."
Wen Ruzhu winked at Xiushui and almost said, "My half-demon niece, look how much I'm going to protect you. Only I know you're half-demon."
Xiushui still kept a straight face. Anyway, as an unfathomable person, she just kept silent at this moment!
"You two, aunt and niece, must study medicine with all your heart from now on.
You don’t have to do the daily chores. While you are studying, you can also try your best to cultivate our Wen family.
The next generation of successors can be trained if possible.
As you continue to practice medicine, I believe the reputation of our Wen Family Clinic will spread.
When the clinic expands, it will be time for you to demonstrate your abilities."
“From now on, everyone must not only escape famine and participate in training, but more importantly, they must study medicine and understand every single herb.
Especially for those who learn planting, they must learn the properties of each medicinal herb, whether it prefers sun or shade, and how to pick it.
For those medicinal plants that have not been cultivated before, you need to ask more people and try to figure out where the plants grow.
Whether the ground is wet or dry, all these careful observations will be your livelihood in the future..."
Hei Mei looked at the old lady with admiration and summarized after she finished speaking.
"Nana's job is to direct us on what to do and how to proceed.
Well, you are the commander-in-chief mentioned in my story.
And we are all her soldiers and generals."
"Okay, then I'll be the commander. Our Wen family will strive to become a major medical family in twenty years."
Xu Yiding's expression perked up slightly after hearing this.
He had this ideal when he first started learning.
But in the end, not only did it fail, it failed miserably.
First, his apprentice betrayed him and even forced him to be tied up and used to treat the nobles in order to reach the mountain route they were climbing.
Later, his family members saw that he was in such a state and immediately turned against him, just like the clan members. They even said that the Xu family didn't have someone like him and that he was a disgrace.
When he was in his prime, they all came over to suck his blood, eat his food, drink his food, and use his things.
He even used his name to make money in various ways.
In the end...
Look at the Wen family in front of us, can they achieve their goal?
I hope it works!
After all, his unfulfilled ideals were what his friends wanted to realize, and these two girls wanted to learn, so he devoted all his energy to teaching them...
