The middle-aged man was speechless again.

  After a while, he suddenly sighed:

  "Shaobai...Second uncle is also for your own good. You said that you should study medicine well, or would you not be a good official? What kind of comic dialogue do you have to learn?...Can that thing support your family?"

  "...Second uncle, am I short of money? Angong Niuhuang Pills and Taiyi Zijin Ingots will be divided into two. I will never dare to say that I am rich and noble, but at least I don't have to worry about eating and drinking, right? What's more... Daxing There are [-] acres of land over there, a mountain in Miyun, the two sets of courtyard houses at the foot of the imperial city, and others... those were all given to me by my grandfather, do you think I'm really short of money?"

  "..."

  The middle-aged man was stunned by Wu Shaobai's choking.

  In the end, I didn't know what to say, so I simply said:

  "Then you can't learn either! Do you want to live a life of inferiority?"

  "Second uncle."

  When Wu Shaobai heard this, he sighed directly.

  "How can there be any superiority or inferiority? I understand what you mean, and I know you are for my own good. I also understand the thoughts of my parents... They are just me. My grandfather asked me to join the army, and my grandfather wanted me to practice medicine. My family doesn't know how many years they have been arguing. Suddenly, I started talking about cross talk... I'm still on stage today. Grandpa thought I had enough fun, so that's why you called me back. But... Second uncle …”

  His eyes became extremely erratic.

  Full of grief and disappointment...

  "Some things...Since I've done it, I really don't want to do it again. And some things...that's a long-cherished wish in my heart for a lifetime. What's the best and the worst...?"

  His voice suddenly dropped, so low that it became inaudible...

  "For the rest of my life... I just want to live a happy life, relying on the railing to pass the rain and fight any day, I'll be romantic!"

  (It's a new day, beg Huahua~).

Chapter 15

  Next to Shichahai and Prince Gong's Mansion.

  As the residence of He Shen, the first corrupt official of the Qing Dynasty, Prince Gong's Mansion as a scenic spot can be said to be a place that no one knows about in Yanjing.

  The Shichahai area where Prince Gong's mansion is located was once the residence of officials and nobles.

  Although the land has been reformed, it has been nationalized, and demolition and renovation are strictly prohibited, in order to preserve the courtyard culture here, and other places also appear as scenic spots.But there are still some mansions inhabited inside.

  The people who live here, or their ancestors were officials in the dynasty, and their ancestors lived here for generations.Or they spent a lot of money to buy this place, live at the foot of this imperial city, and seek peace in the midst of the commotion.

  And next to Prince Gong's mansion, there is a courtyard that looks very low-key.

  But in the hearts of the old residents nearby, they are extremely respectful to the people in this courtyard.

  The reason is very simple. Although this neighborhood is next to the First Hospital of Yanjing University, there are too many people there.Waiting in line is also troublesome, as long as it is not a serious illness, has a headache, etc., these old people are more willing to come here.

  Although there is no such thing as a clinic listed here, as long as the owner of the house is at home, explain the purpose of his visit, go in to auscultate the pulse, take the prescription to the nearby pharmacy to pick up a pair of Chinese medicines, and basically cure the disease.

  And there is no fee for coming here to see a doctor. There is no business, and benevolence and righteousness will come out.

  People who come to see a doctor carry some gifts, no matter how expensive or low, even if it is a bag of fruit, as long as they don't empty their hands, then there is no problem.

  As for the reason...

  Young people may not understand, but if you ask old people, the old people have to give a thumbs up.

  tell them:

  "This is the residence of Wu Jutong's descendants."

  Who is Wu Jutong?

  Once in charge of the Taiyuan Hospital, he also compiled part of the "Siku Quanshu".

  The ancestors practiced medicine from generation to generation, and family members have been serving as imperial physicians since the Ming Dynasty, which has continued to this day.If you really talk about history, there are no one thousand or eight hundred royal family members who have undergone pulse diagnosis by the ancestors of the Wu family, not to mention the common people.

  It's really a virtue.

  And here is Wu Shaobai's home.

  ……

  "Okay, second uncle, you can go back. I'll go to my parents and my mother tomorrow morning. Don't worry about it."

  The middle-aged man nodded:

  "Okay, the old man should be sleeping, you should be quiet."

  "Do not worry."

  Wu Shaobai nodded, took out the key, opened the door, and walked in directly.

  Although the scale of this courtyard house is not as large as that of Prince Gong's mansion, it is not small in scale.The yard was cleaned very cleanly, and there was a house with lights on.

  There are six nanmu pillars on both sides of the house, and a couplet on the door frame:

  "Spring is warm in apricot forests and flowers spit brocade; the water in the spring is fragrant."

  The horizontal batch is "Baicao Changchun".

  And if you look carefully, you can also see a gold seal on the left side of the horizontal batch.Inscribed on the gold seal are four words:

  "Abstain from the Ring"

  If someone knows how to do it, it is estimated that they will be shocked.

  These four words come from the "Analects of Confucius", and the most famous person in history who used this sentence is Emperor Kangxi.

  And this seal is exactly the same as the seal of Kangxi, one of the two golden seals in the Palace Museum: "Precept is in Destiny" and "Seventeen Cleansing".

  No difference.

  But these plaques, which are enough to prove the family's heritage to outsiders, seem to Wu Shaobai, but they don't care much.

  He walked to the door, tidied up his down jacket, and knocked on the door:

  "Grandpa, you haven't slept yet?"

  "came back?"

  A voice came from inside the house:

  "come in."

  Wu Shaobai pushed open the door and entered, and then saw an old man sitting on the Taishi chair under the "Zhongzheng Pinghe" Bian with a tea cup in his hand. Although it was already after 1 am, the old man's eyes were bright. He was looking at Wu Shaobai.

  The old man's name is Wu Xianliang. Although the name sounds a bit "unlimited", he is the descendant of the imperial physician Wu Jutong, the current patriarch of the Wu family, and the grandfather of Wu Shaobai.

  Wu Shaobai's father was the eldest, the oldest and the eldest son.

  And he is the eldest grandson.

  ……

  Sitting on the chair, Wu Shaobai said with a smile:

  "Why haven't you slept yet?"

  "Old Li is not feeling well. I'm boiling a pot of Jinshenglianxiangyulu Dan, and I have to wait for you for half an hour."

  Hearing this, Wu Shaobai nodded:

  "Then you can go to rest, and I will help you watch."

  "It's not that bad."

  Saying that, the old man got up:

  "Tell me about the medicine stove. Be warm."

  "Eh."

  Wu Shaobai nodded quickly, and helped the old man to the back room.

  When I came to the side house, I passed through the rows of medicine racks, and came to a row of pit stoves. The old man pointed at the medicine stove that was still breathing:

  "Go and see."

  "Eh, good."

  Wu Shaobai nodded, came to the medicine stove, smelled it through his breath, closed his eyes and thought about it, and said:

  "It's almost there. Judging from the taste, the Yaoyin you chose this time should be the three-year-old Aconitum. From the Lingnan side, Grandpa Li must have been very angry in the past two days. You deliberately added more Scutellaria baicalensis to the recipe. Half a tael, so the taste is rather bitter, and after a while until the pot of concoction is finished, when combining the pills, it is necessary to use less gardenia flowers, otherwise Grandpa Li might have diarrhea. Generally speaking, it is not bad, but if the aconite can be It is actually better to choose five years, but the effect of Zhimu will be reduced... What you want is stability, first reduce the anger, and then add some appearance medicine, at least to make Grandpa Li feel comfortable for two to three months Months. Right?"

  Hearing this, there was a trace of relief in the old man's eyes, but it was fleeting.

  Nodding his head, he sat on the Maza and said:

  "Yes, it doesn't seem to be wasted after walking for half a year... Let's talk about it, what do you think?".

Chapter 16

  Hearing this, Wu Shaobai first opened the lid to see how much the concoction of the decoction had received, then pinched the medicine stove, picked out a few pieces of charcoal from it, and made the fire less powerful, the old man was puzzled. In his eyes he said:

  "The fire is weaker, and the three-year-old Aconitum is used as a medicine. If the temperature is too high, the Kuludan in it will dissolve, and the potency of the medicine will be mixed and not very pure. Therefore, I have more for your medicine. I'll help you watch it for three quarters, but you can't get out of the pot in half an hour."

  "..."

  The old man thought about it and nodded:

  "rational."

  "Ah."

  Wu Shaobai responded, took a bowl, squeezed two or three chrysanthemums from the dustpan beside him, and threw them in the bowl, rinsed them with water, and then said:

  "I'm a teacher."

  "I know. The disciple and grandson of Gao Fengshan, right?"

  "You know this too?"

  "I have also heard his "Tongrentang" back then. Although it is playful, the medicinal materials are also similar to the kiln. However, in order to rhyme with the same rhyme, a few medicinal material names are wrong. He changed it."

  "I see……"
