Chapter 172 Suspicious old man

Back at the door of the house, the old man Zhao opened the lock and walked in in a hurry.

Song Baozhu just pushed the bicycle in when he couldn't wait to ask: "Tell me, what did you bring me?"

Song Baozhu found it funny when he saw that he was staring at the car basket, but he still tried his best to pretend to be dismissive.

She opened the basket and took out a package of bacon wrapped in greased paper.

As soon as a seam was opened, the bacon was snatched by the old man Zhao quickly, and then the old man ran directly into the house.

When he came out again, the piece of bacon was gone, and he didn't know where it was hidden by him.

Song Baozhu felt more and more amused, this old man is really interesting.

Old man Zhao noticed the smile on her face, and probably felt embarrassed, and the expression on his face suddenly became a little embarrassing.

But he was only embarrassed for a moment, then he quickly raised his face, glared at Song Baozhu and said fiercely, "Come in with me!"

Song Baozhu: "…"

She followed the old man Zhao into the main room, and then saw the old man sitting on the ground on the armchair, and then asked critically, "How are you memorizing the book I gave you before?"

Song Baozhu didn't feel wronged, she silently found a chair and sat down before saying, "Have you written it down?"

Old Zhao looked at her in surprise: "Are you serious? I want to test you. If you don't remember, I won't accept you as an apprentice!"

Song Baozhu directly took out the barefoot doctor's manual given by old man Zhao and handed it to him: "You can test me."

Old man Zhao raised his eyebrows, then flipped to a page and began to test her.

"What is **** fascioliasis?"

"The shape of the **** worm is like sliced ​​ginger... The point of diagnosis is... prevention... treatment..."

Song Baozhu memorized it word for word.

The old man Zhao was astonished, he quickly turned the page and asked her, "What is rice fever?"

Song Baozhu continued to recite: "Rice fever is also called leptospirosis, the cause of this..."

"What is typhus?"

"By…"

The two of them took the test one and the other on the back, and the time passed before they knew it.

Zhao old man looked at Song Baozhu in shock: "You actually remember it!"

Song Baozhu looked at his reaction and couldn't help but secretly delighted: Her memory should be pretty good, right?

But thanks to the spiritual spring water and space, otherwise her memory would not be so good, and she would not have time to memorize everything in the book.

So she waited silently for a while, and then asked, "Then can I be a teacher now?"

I didn't want that old man Zhao looked at her with complicated eyes, as if he was looking at someone else through her.

Song Baozhu's heart moved, and suddenly had a guess.

No way?

Does this old man also know Bai Zijun?

By the way, he also has medical skills, and his medical skills should be pretty good, so he should have heard of the Bai family?

I just don't know how much the old man knows about the Bai family.

Song Baozhu thought of this, and couldn't help but be vigilant in her heart.

So she pretended to be puzzled and asked, "What are you looking at?"

Old Man Zhao sighed suddenly, and then said angrily, "You should talk less in the future!"

Lest you get **** off with just one mouth!

Song Baozhu: "…"

What happened to her words?

She asked again: "Then ask a teacher..."

Old man Zhao waved his hand: "Okay, I'll accept your apprentice, but since you're apprenticing, you can't be too casual.

According to the rules, one must kneel down to offer tea and kowtow to the patriarch.

Here I am, kneeling can be avoided, but this tea still has to be respected. You go back and prepare, and come back to apprentice tomorrow, remember to bring the tea!

You don’t need to give me the ginseng I mentioned before, that thing is rare, I won’t accept it from you, you can just get me a piece of bacon. "

Song Baozhu agreed quickly and went back.

After she left, the old man Zhao looked at the empty yard and suddenly sighed deeply.

"Hey, this girl really looks more and more like you."

…

The next day, Song Baozhu prepared things and came to Old Man Zhao's house again.

This time, the old man Zhao didn't go out to sweep the streets, but waited for her at home.

Song Baozhu pushed the bicycle in and looked at the old man Zhao who was wearing new clothes. He couldn't help but ask, "Old Zhao, why are you waiting for me? Look at you, not only did you change into new clothes, but you even shaved your beard. Well, I almost didn't recognize it just now."

The blue veins on old Zhao's head jumped fiercely, and he gave her an angry look: "What Lao Zhao? I'm your master! No big or small! Where's the stuff? Did you bring it?"

"Of course I brought it, you told me specifically, can I still not bring it?"

Song Baozhu said quickly, and then explained, "Isn't this a formal apprenticeship yet? If I call you a master, won't I take advantage of you?"

Zhao old man stinked his old face: "..."

So you called me Lao Zhao, didn't you take advantage of me?

Seeing that his face was bad, Song Baozhu quickly took off the basket and said to the old man Zhao: "Look, Lao Zhao, I brought everything, except for the bacon and tea you asked for, I also brought you sausages and rice. , flour and eggs.

You can rest assured, as long as you teach me medical skills well, I will bring you everything you lack in the future! In the future, I will give you the end of your retirement! "

The old man Zhao stared at her angrily: "When you are an old man, am I the kind of lonely old man who has no children and no daughters? Do you need me to retire? Humph!"

Song Baozhu was surprised: "You have a family? Then why do you... live here alone?"

"I'm happy! I want you to take care of it!" The old man snorted coldly, his eyes swept to the basket on the ground, and his face finally looked a lot better, "Okay, hurry up and take it in."

Song Baozhu obeyed obediently, but she was vigilant again in her heart.

Since old man Zhao has a family, why has he stayed here all by himself for so many years?

She specifically asked someone yesterday to find out that the old man Zhao moved here 20 years ago and has lived here for 20 years.

He was not so old when he first came here. At that time, the neighbors looked at him alone and felt pitiful, and wanted to introduce him to someone, but he refused all of them.

Later everyone thought he was eccentric.

As a result, this old man actually has a family!

Where are those people?

Why didn't he go to them and stay here for 20 years?

Song Baozhu was full of suspicion, but did not show it on his face.

She decided that no matter what, she would go to a teacher first, learn the skills of old man Zhao, and then talk about it!

Even if the old man Zhao is bad, the skills she has learned are not fake.

It's a big deal to look for more medical books, lest the old man be fooled.

Old man Zhao didn't know Song Baozhu's thoughts, so after taking her into the main room, he asked her to take out the tea leaves to make tea.

Song Baozhu took out the tea leaves, and the old man Zhao immediately brewed the tea with the boiled water and cups he had prepared.

Then he pointed to something on the table and asked her to kneel.

Song Baozhu had noticed what was on the table for a long time, and saw that it was a small bronze statue sitting cross-legged, looking at the immortal style, could it be the so-called patriarch?
