"There is also a saying circulating among your students, which is called' enrolling in medical school only when you can't get into other colleges', right?"
The old director didn't wait for liu chen to answer as he continued to ask and answer.
"Because it takes a long time to learn medicine, and the cost is high. Even if you become a doctor, working overtime every day will become a daily routine. You have a low salary, and you're tired. Who would be willing to do such a troublesome job? You're right, aren't you?" The old director had been a doctor for decades, so he naturally had a deep understanding of this industry, including the choice of practitioners and various aspects.
"I don't think I care about emergency doctors, surgeons, where I can save a patient with my hands, and I think that's what I've been after. I've thought about what you said before, but when these conditions meet my dream and bottom line, they won't be a problem anymore." Liu chen answered firmly.
"Yes! Yes! Alright!" The old headmaster said three good things in a row.
"Dr. Liu, I like the energy in your young people. You're right. This is also the professional ethics that we must have when we become doctors. But I also want to ask, how many ways do you have to treat patients and save people? Why did you choose the path of traditional chinese medicine?" The old director couldn't help but ask liu chen.
"Old director, I've always been a clinical medicine major, but I've always been very interested in chinese medicine, and I've learned these methods by chance. I think this is the way god wants us to continue our chinese medicine. He wants us to tell the world that chinese medicine can also treat patients and save people! It's no worse than the so-called western medicine!"
This was what liu chen had always told him. Ever since he inherited Bian Que's medical skills and saved one patient after another in his hands, liu chen gradually felt this sense of mission. It was this sense of mission that made liu chen's choice in the future no longer solely personal.
"Very good, dr. Liu. I really like you more and more... How about this? How about you be my grandson-in-law?" The old headmaster suddenly said.
"Grandfather!" Zhu chu yue's face was red as she called out to the old director.
However, the old director did not stop this time. Instead, he looked at zhu chu yue seriously.
"My good granddaughter, grandfather is telling the truth this time. Your parents have been in this situation for so long, and grandfather has been taking care of you, but grandfather is getting older and older. Grandfather is worried that one day when grandfather is not around, who will take care of you..."
"Grandfather, I forbid you to say such unlucky words. Your body is so strong that you can live another 100 years without any problems." Zhu chu yue was so tearful from her grandfather's words.
"I think dr. Liu has great ambitions at such a young age. This young man is also very beautiful and energetic. Most importantly, he has such deep research on chinese medicine. Moreover, you are also a medical student. Both of you have the same profession. In the future, when you get married, there will be many common topics to talk about. Besides, I think both of you have the same career. It's interesting. You can try dating. Young people, you have to dare to do it!" Liu chen and zhu chu yue were embarrassed by the dean's words.
"Who would like him? Men are all pig trotters, I don't want to get married..." Zhu chu yue said shyly, as if her heart had already been seen through by the old director.
"Liu chen, do you think what I said makes sense?" The old director also threw the hot potato to liu chen.
"This... You're right." Liu chen had no choice but to surrender.
"Look, my dear granddaughter, doctor liu has already agreed to it. I will choose a good day to settle the matter for you..." The dean said.
"No... Director, that's not what I meant..." Liu chen quickly explained when he heard the old director's words.
"That's not what I meant So you mean my granddaughter is not good enough for you?" The old director deliberately pretended to be angry and scare liu chen, as if you actually looked down on me.
"Of course not..." Liu chen had no choice but to look at zhu chuyue, hoping that zhu chuyue would help him out. He didn't expect zhu chuyue to act as if she had caused trouble for herself and didn't want to interfere at all. Liu chen had no choice but to think about how to explain himself.
"Alright, I won't tease you guys anymore. It's not funny at all," the old headmaster said playfully, then the old headmaster changed the topic. He didn't intend to dwell on this topic any longer, but changed his serious face. "I've been studying chinese medicine for decades, but I haven't allowed it to flourish. Sigh, I'm really useless!" When the old headmaster spoke of this, his expression was indeed a little lonely.
"Old headmaster, don't think so. The reason why traditional chinese medicine has been passed down until now must be because of his unique history. You are not the only one to blame! Liu chen comforted her.
"I know that medicine is difficult, and traditional chinese medicine is even more difficult. There are fewer and fewer people who can really inherit old grand madame's things now." The old headmaster could not help but sigh.
"Dr. Liu, I met an old doctor a few years ago during the dabie mountain science examination. He gave me a good thing. I want to give it to you, but I have a condition." As the old headmaster spoke, he turned around and went into the room. He took out a wooden box and felt that it was heavy. He didn't know what was inside.
The old headmaster opened the wooden box with a smile.
"Old headmaster, this is my first time here. How can I accept such a valuable item?!" When liu chen saw the contents of the box, he almost cried out in surprise.
It was such an expensive item, and it was only the first time he had visited the old headmaster, so how could he ask for something from the old headmaster?
"It's fine. Just treat it as your wedding gift. I gave it to you in advance!" The old headmaster's eyes were full of smiles, but liu chen didn't dare to take it seriously.
"Don't worry, young man. As I said earlier, I have conditions for these things to be given to you."
Hearing this, liu chen couldn't push it any further and could only ask, "Old headmaster, what's your condition then?"
"I'm an old man, but I still can't let go of the career of traditional chinese medicine. Dr. Liu, the first time I saw you, you were right in my eyes. I know you're a good kid. The old man doesn't ask for anything else, he only wants you to promise me that you won't abandon traditional chinese medicine for the rest of your life. Even if you have anything in the future, don't forget chu xin. Can you do it?"
Liu chen felt a little emotional.
He was willing to agree to this, but with this alone, liu chen felt that he had really taken advantage of her.
