Zhang Yuan looked puzzled, and hurried forward to support Guo Nanzheng and said:
“Nanzheng, what’s the matter with you kid?
Just tell me, if I can promise you something, I will naturally agree to it. Tell me what it is. "
In the end, Guo Nanzheng couldn't change his mind. He looked at Zhang Yuan with a confident look and said:
"Dr. Zhang, I'm worried that you'll reject me.
So can you please promise me first, please, if you don’t promise me I won’t be able to get up. This is definitely something you can do very easily and it’s not difficult.
Can you promise me that first?"
Faced with Guo Nanzheng's sincere request, Zhang Yuan naturally couldn't bear to reject him, and immediately said:
"Southern Expedition.
In that case, get up quickly, I promise you."
Everyone in the Guo family was looking at Guo Nanzheng curiously at this time.
Everyone wants to know what Guo Nanzheng’s purpose is in doing this?
What is this request he made?
When Guo Nanzheng heard that Zhang Yuan was going to agree to his condition, his face was filled with joy, almost beyond words. He looked at Zhang Yuan excitedly and said:
"Dr. Zhang, I want you to agree to my request.
From today on, you will be my master, okay?
Of course, if you are willing to be my godfather, that is no problem. From now on, you can either be my master or my godfather.
You can choose any one of the two. I want to learn from you and become as good as you. "
When Guo Nanzheng said this, Zhang Yuan was a little amused. He never expected that this little guy was waiting for him here.
Zhang Yuan didn't know how to answer him, and couldn't give a definite answer for a moment.
At this time, everyone in the Guo family couldn't help but laugh, especially Guo Qiming. He really didn't expect that his son would want to establish such a connection with Dr. Zhang and want to worship Dr. Zhang as his master. This was a great thing.
Not to mention whether his son could learn the profound medical skills of Dr. Zhang, even this level of master-disciple relationship would be enough to benefit the Guo family.
It would be even more amazing if we could go a step further and worship Zhang Yuan as our godfather.
For a moment, Guo Qiming was a little impressed by his son's wisdom. This little guy actually did something that he himself couldn't even imagine. He was worthy of being my, Guo Qilin's, son.
Old man Guo Huaijin standing by also had a smile on his face, thinking that his little grandson was extremely smart.
Taking advantage of this critical opportunity to establish such a relationship with Zhang Yuan is really not easy.
When everyone was looking at Zhang Yuan in bewilderment, it was difficult for Zhang Yuan to refuse. Besides, Zhang Yuan admired Guo Nanzheng very much. If Guo Nanzheng could really become his apprentice or adopted son, it would be quite helpful for him to control the entire Guo family in the future when Guo Nanzheng grew up.
So Zhang Yuan thought about it and said:
"Since you have said so much, Nanzheng, if I don't agree to your request, it would seem that I am a bit heartless and disloyal."
Zhang Yuan's words made Guo Nanzheng completely excited. He knelt on the ground with a plop, looked at Zhang Yuan with a firm face and said:
"Well, then, would you like to take me in as your apprentice or as your adopted son?"
Zhang Yuan touched Guo Nanzheng's cute little head and said with a smile:
"Of course I will accept you as my apprentice. I am not worthy of being your godfather."
Guo Nanzheng kowtowed three times to Zhang Yuan without hesitation, and then said:
"Master, please accept Nan Zheng's greetings."
Zhang Yuan did not stop Guo Nanzheng from performing this great ceremony. After all, for Guo Nanzheng, this was the most normal thing. It would be excessive to stop him from performing the ceremony.
After paying his respects, Guo Nanzheng stood up, his face full of joy, as if he was determined to cling to Zhang Yuan and never let go.
Zhang Yuan stroked Guo Nanzheng's fluffy hair with his hand, just like stroking a kitten, and said with a smile:
"Nan Zheng, from today on you are my disciple, Zhang Yuan. The first thing I will teach you is not Confucianism, nor the School of Diplomacy, nor the School of Yin and Yang, nor the Taoist doctrine, but Chinese Medicine.
The first theoretical knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine you should learn is the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine.
I believe it won’t be a problem to ask your parents to help you get a set of genuine books about Huangdi Neijing.”
Guo Nanzheng said with a smile:
"It must be easy."
Then Guo Nanzheng looked at his parents, and Guo Qiming immediately said:
"Don't worry, Doctor Zhang. I will definitely get a complete set of Huangdi Neijing for Nanzheng so that he can enter the world of traditional Chinese medicine."
Zhang Yuan felt relieved after hearing this, and then told Guo Nanzheng:
"Okay. Now, Nanzheng, you have gained considerable knowledge in Confucianism, and your grasp of ancient texts is much better than that of your peers.
So it shouldn't be that difficult for you to learn Huangdi Neijing. After you finish learning Huangdi Neijing, I will really start to lay the foundation for you and let you learn my theoretical knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine, how about that? "
Guo Nanzheng nodded heavily and said:
"Okay, Master. Don't worry. I will definitely finish studying the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine in the shortest possible time, and then I will ask you for relevant Chinese medicine knowledge."
After a brief chat, Zhang Yuan decided to leave the Guo family.
At this time, Guo Nanyue also stepped forward and grabbed Zhang Yuan's sleeve, and said excitedly:
"Dr. Zhang, since Nan Zheng has accepted you as his master, can I also accept you as my master?
If that doesn't work, I can also worship you as my godfather."
As soon as he said this, Zhang Yuan was really at a loss for words. What happened to Guo Nanyue? She was an old witch who was much stronger than himself.
Now she actually wants to take me as her master, and even is willing to take me as her godfather. This is a bit embarrassing.
Magalina, who was guarding Zhang Yuan, became alert again, fearing that Guo Nanyue would cause some harm to Zhang Yuan if she touched him.
Everyone in the Guo family was really happy at this time. They were all laughing and all focused their eyes on Zhang Yuan, waiting for his reply.
Zhang Yuan’s reply was:
"Nanyue, don't learn from your brother. It's better for you to learn from a female master. I don't think you are suitable for studying Chinese medicine, so you should give up this idea. You have a broader future and prospects than studying Chinese medicine."
After saying that, Zhang Yuan was about to leave, but Guo Nanyue insisted on kneeling down.
Zhang Yuan would not allow this to happen and immediately gave a look to Margarina next to him.
Magalina acted as fast as lightning and supported Guo Nanyue.
Guo Nanyue failed to kneel down on the spot and seemed quite helpless.
However, there was no other way, because Zhang Yuan's bodyguard was too skillful and quick in his actions, so she couldn't even kneel down to Zhang Yuan.
Just as Guo Nanyue was thinking about how to entangle Zhang Yuan next, Zhang Yuan's cell phone rang. Zhang Yuan took this opportunity to take two steps outside and then answered the call.
After the call was connected, Chen Guangrong's voice was immediately heard.
Zhang Yuan asked curiously:
"Mr. Chen, long time no see, what's the matter with you calling me?"
Chen Guangrong's tone showed a hint of urgency, and he couldn't wait to say to Zhang Yuan:
"Dr. Zhang, I have a problem. An old friend of mine came here to ask me to treat her illness because I have troubled her a lot before..."
"On the one hand, I was praying for money and offering sacrifices, and on the other hand, I often asked her to take care of my health... But after many visits, she was helpless and could not treat my illness."
"Now, she heard that you cured me, and I can go out for a ride every day and do many of the things I like to do. She is very envious."
"So, this time she came here because of your reputation, and wanted me to introduce you to her and save her life."
Zhang Yuan couldn't help but feel a little amused and asked:
"What disease did your old friend have? Doesn't she know how to treat diseases herself? Is she also a Chinese medicine practitioner?"
