I Became the Favorite of Big Bosses

  Is Chapter 158 good?

Gu Chao picked up a peach stone and looked at it left and right against the sun for a long time. He must have found the cutting point. He picked the thinnest flat-blade carving knife and started carving. While carving, he said: "There is a certain person in my grandma's family. He once worked as a royal doctor in the palace, and later returned to his hometown to teach the younger generations. Grandma also learned some skills, but later they eliminated the four old and established the four new, and they took away her belongings, and she was no longer around. When you treat someone, take their pulse."

Gu Chao's tone was calm, but Wei Lan could detect a hint of regret in it.

 It’s indeed a pity.

 Can an incompetent person become a court physician? Because of this period of history, Chinese medicine in later generations was almost completely disconnected. It was almost impossible to find a good Chinese medicine doctor.

"Hey..." Wei Lan lowered her eyes and couldn't help but sigh.

"It doesn't matter." Gu Chao chuckled, "For grandma, as long as the life is peaceful, it doesn't matter whether she does this or not."

 The new era does not need old guys like them. Others will naturally do the work of saving lives and healing the wounded.

 “Yes.” Wei Lan nodded slightly, with a forced smile.

 Whether there is a relationship or not is not up to them. I am afraid no one will know what grandma is really thinking.

After a while, the peach core in Gu Chao's hand had already taken shape. Wei Lan looked at it with his hands on his chin, "I find you are like a mystery. Every time I think I know you well enough, you can always do something trick." New tricks, tell me, what else can you do?"

Gu Chao glanced sideways at her with a smile, then returned his eyes to the peach core in his hand, carving it carefully.

He was silent for a moment, seeming to be thinking, and then said after a while: "I can also calligraphy, and I know a little bit about boxing and short blade."

The Gu family's ancestors were wealthy, and the old man paid great attention to the upbringing of his children. In addition to enlightenment education, he also hired martial arts masters who were skilled in martial arts to help their children strengthen their bodies and learn some skills.

Even though Gu Chao is now in good health, he actually had a sickly constitution when he was a child. After a few years of good health, he was caught studying with Wu Fuzi.

The martial arts master was also a capable man, and he was very impressive with his broadsword and long stick, but Gu Chao preferred a short-edged sword, which was not much longer than a dagger.

At present, the possibility of using the short-blade boxing technique in the future is very small. Wei Lan didn't take it too seriously. Instead, the calligraphy sentence struck her heart. “Calligraphy?”

"Yeah." Gu Chao nodded slightly, his face a little hot, "I learned some from my father when I was a child."

 After finishing speaking, he thought for a while and added: "I wrote the couplet at the door."

Wei Lan's eyes widened and she didn't say anything. She stood up suddenly and trotted outside to look at the couplets taped to the door frame.

First couplet: Spring breeze and willow branches in late autumn

  Second line: Six hundred million Chinese states are all destroyed by Shun Yao

ˆ is Chairman M’s poem. It was very popular in this era to use Chairman M’s poems to make couplets.

Wei Lan was stunned for a moment before being attracted by the writing on it.

 The red paper under the couplet has faded and turned white, but the handwriting is still neat and straight. Being able to write in regular script like this shows that Gu Chao has a solid foundation.

"Great." Wei Lan trotted back to the backyard and sat down. She tilted her head and said excitedly to Gu Chao, "I thought you didn't know how to read, but I didn't expect it to be me."

 Her face was flushed with excitement, "This time I brought back a lot of textbooks from Beijing. You can learn with me. If you don't know what you don't know, I'll teach you. How about that? Okay?"

"Teach me?" Gu Chao paused his hand and looked sideways at Wei Lan as if he couldn't believe it. Seeing that her eyes were bright and she didn't look like a joke at all, Gu Chao's heart was pounding and he almost nodded, "Okay. …”

Brother Chao: I want to kiss my wife. (sharpening a knife)

A Yao:...wait!
