Chapter 567 The reason for being different
Old Mrs. Li is okay. In her heart, her granddaughter is a little fairy who can do anything, so it doesn't matter if she helps the Marquis take care of the Marquis's mansion.
Wenjuan was very surprised.
How old is your sister-in-law? How can Master Hou feel relieved? Aren't you afraid that the Hou Mansion will be messed up?
But she didn’t dare to say this.
After chatting a few more words, the Marquis was going to see Dr. Zhang, so of course he had to follow the good news.
After running around for a day, Mr. Hou was afraid that the fat girl would be tired, so he crouched down and carried her on his back, and then went all the way to the back of the village.
I don’t know what the Marquis said, but Jiayin kept giggling, kicking his legs, and spreading laughter in and outside the courtyard...
The small adobe house in the north of the village has since become the "base" of Divine Doctor Zhang, and no strangers are allowed to approach it.
No, even cats, dogs, and even flies and mosquitoes are unwilling to come close.
After all, the strong smell of medicine in the courtyard can make them dizzy at any time. Maybe they will fall down accidentally and be crushed.
The coarse cloth clothes and trousers worn by Divine Doctor Zhang were originally gray, but they were stained with a lot of concoction, and now their true appearance is no longer visible.
His hair is messy and his beard is knotted. He hasn't slept well for days and nights. His eye circles are as dark as those of a giant panda, and the bags under his eyes almost hang to his chest.
At this moment, he was squatting at the door of the rabbit cage, pulling his hair and chattering.
“What’s going on? It should be easy to use, but why isn’t it working?”
"It's been three days! The swelling should have subsided, but it's not as good as ordinary gold sore medicine. I'm so angry!"
Hearing the courtyard door being pushed open, he looked over with blood-red eyes and yelled: "Didn't I say no one is allowed in? Get out..."
Halfway through his words, he realized that it was Mr. Hou and Jiayin who came in, so he reluctantly changed his words, "Why are you here? I'm busy and I don't have time to treat you!"
The Marquis has known him for many years and knows his temper very well, so he doesn't care about him. He said: "What medicine can't be figured out? Besides seeing a doctor, can't I come and see you when I have nothing to do?"
Jiayin also jumped off Mr. Hou's back, stepped forward with a smile and pulled the sleeve of the miracle doctor Zhang, "Grandpa Zhang, my adoptive father bought roast chicken in the city. Can you come to my house for dinner tonight?"
Doctor Zhang wanted to rub the little girl's hair, but then remembered that he had just touched the rabbit, so he hurriedly went to find water to wash his hands, and casually greeted the Marquis, "Sit wherever you like."
The Marquis took Jiayin and sat under the eaves on the west side of the house.
This is upwind, so you can’t smell the smell of medicine and small animal excrement that fills the yard.
Jiayin couldn't help but become curious when she saw Doctor Zhang washing his hands and changing his clothes.
You must know that this old man is extremely casual with everyone, but he is different with the Marquis, and this difference does not seem to be because of the noble status of the Marquis.
She asked in a low voice: "Father, how did you and Grandpa Zhang meet?"
Master Hou's expression paused, but he returned to normal in an instant.
Jiayin immediately felt that she shouldn't ask this question. Just when she wanted to take it back, the Marquis spoke.
“My parents and relatives all died from the epidemic. At that time, Dr. Zhang was one of the doctors responsible for diagnosis and treatment.
“I was not much older than you at that time, and I asked him if he could cure my parents. In order to coax me, he agreed, but...
“Perhaps he feels guilty. After traveling abroad for so many years, his medical skills have become better and better, and he has not forgotten to come back to Kyoto to see me often.
"Later I accidentally got a cough, and he was always helping me with the diagnosis and treatment. Without Dr. Zhang, I'm afraid I would have died a long time ago, and I would have no chance of living long enough to stay at your house."
Hearing the good news, my heart was filled with panic.
Even though the adoptive father smiled when he talked about this, how frightening it must be for a child to suddenly lose his parents and relatives. I don’t know how much suffering this has caused over the years.
She wanted to say something, but she didn't know what to say. In the end, she could only hug her adoptive father's arm and pat his shoulder.
"Fu Niu'er will definitely be kind to Grandpa Zhang in the future. Without Grandpa Zhang, Fu Niu'er would have no adoptive father." Divine Doctor Zhang happened to come out of the room. When he heard this, he stared and laughed and cursed: "You heartless girl. , I am your master, you should be filial, but you are treating me well because of Master Hou?"
Jiayin stuck out her tongue and quickly changed her words, "Grandpa Zhang, can I add a plate of fried fish to you tonight? That one is the most delicious when you drink it!"
“Hmph, this little girl knows how to flatter her!” Doctor Zhang nodded her forehead, looked at the rabbit in the cage, and frowned again.
When the Marquis saw him like this, he said, "Fu Niuer, go and pour a bowl of water for your foster father."
Jiayin guessed that they had something to say, so he got up and ran into the kitchen.
It's a pity that Doctor Zhang didn't have any warm water to boil, so Jiayin could only scoop half a bowl out of the water tank.
After waiting for a while, she took it out.
As a result, as soon as he arrived under the eaves of the corridor, Doctor Zhang hurriedly came over to greet him. The old man no longer had the frown on his face just now, and his face was almost blooming with smiles.
He took the water bowl and threw it aside, shouting, "Oh, oh, our Fu Niu'er is the princess, how can we work? Sit down quickly, sit down quickly!"
Jiayin blinked twice and looked at the smiling adoptive father. She didn't understand what kind of magic he used to make Doctor Zhang change his temperament.
You know, the last time she helped grind the medicine powder, her palms were blistered, and the old man didn't say a word!
The county owner, is it easy to use, is it still a time period?
Master Hou was amused by the fat girl's confused look and blinked at her twice quickly.
He understood the good news, sat down, and began to make conditions.
"Grandpa Zhang, I have memorized that medical book. Can I learn how to prepare medicine? After all, I have just started learning, and I don't need particularly good prescriptions. I only need hemostatic medicine and antidote. My second uncle will give it to me. A lot of medicinal materials were sent back, I want to try them.”
"Okay!" Doctor Zhang agreed immediately. He even immediately found a pen and paper to write down the prescription. He handed it directly to Jiayin and asked, "What else do you want to learn? Just tell me."
Jiayin shook his head, "No need, Grandpa Zhang, these two are enough for me to think about."
The Marquis also said, "The ground will be broken in a few days and a new courtyard will be built here. Fu Niu'er will bring the medicinal materials and think about it together with Doctor Zhang. He can also teach on the spot."
“Okay, listen to your adoptive father.” Jiayin smiled cutely.
The Marquis stood up to say goodbye. Doctor Zhang ran to get another medical book. He handed it to Jiayin without any hesitation and said, "Go back and memorize this book. I will train you as a disciple within half a year!"
Half a year?
Happy news, studying medicine is not just about eating. How can it be so simple?
But the adoptive father did not speak, and she pretended not to understand and responded vaguely.
After finally leaving the small mud house, Jiayin immediately started asking.
The Marquis then said: "I told Divine Doctor Zhang that when he teaches you as a disciple, I will tell him...who is the master who cured my cough?"
Jiayin was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Don't worry, foster father, you don't have to worry about this matter. I will let Grandpa Zhang know who the master is in the future!"
The Marquis also smiled and said, "Shendoctor Zhang is very trustworthy and has no utilitarianism, so he can be trusted. Of course, at any time, the most trustworthy person is only yourself, do you understand?"
"I know, foster father!" The good news was answered immediately, and the elder and the younger held hands and went home happily.
Sure enough, it’s just like what Mr. Hou said.
Early in the morning of the second day, just as the Li family was having dinner, Dr. Zhang came to see Jiayin and asked her how she was memorizing the medical books. He also said that he would take her to diagnose the pulse of the villagers today and get familiar with her as soon as possible...
Jiayin hadn’t even had a few bites of rice before she was dragged away by Doctor Zhang. Her two pigtails were flying in the wind. People who didn’t know better thought they were robbing the child...
It was like this for three or four days in a row, which made Mrs. Li feel sorry for her granddaughter.
So, after lunch that day, Jiayin went to take a nap, and the courtyard door was pushed open again.
Old Mrs. Li thought Doctor Zhang was coming and rushed out immediately, wanting to persuade her granddaughter to sleep a little longer.
As a result, it was Li Laosi and several others who came in from outside the hospital, followed by a young daughter-in-law holding a parcel...
