I practiced medicine in ancient times

"Let's go back." Li Wanqiu opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but then he remembered what the girl had said before, that she would not like what she said, and it was okay for him to say whatever she wanted.

It turned out that what the girl said was something I didn't like. I should have known I wouldn't have let her say it. It was really her curiosity that made me unhappy.

"Madam, the words of that rural girl cannot be trusted." Lu Zhu said with an indignant look on his face.

"You are such an impatient girl.

The girl said before that what she said would make me unhappy. I asked her to speak frankly, so it’s not my fault.

The reason why I don't want to stay here is because I'm in a bad mood, so I naturally want to go back." Li Wanqiu smiled gently.

However, less than half an hour later, before returning to the town, Li Wanqiu felt a headache, chills, and sore limbs, as if he was unwell all over his body.

"Lüzhu, tell the driver to hurry back home and ask a doctor to come and see me." Li Wanqiu was shocked. Thinking of what Xu Qingyi had said before, all of it was confirmed by her.

After half an hour, I must see a doctor. It’s only been half an hour, the calculation is really accurate.

"Ah!" Lu Zhu was stunned, thinking in his heart, why did his wife listen to the peasant girl and go to see a doctor in half an hour?

"It's getting colder in cold weather, I'm afraid the cold has entered my body." Li Wanqiu touched his forehead and found that he was already feeling hot.

"Madam, you have a cold?" Lu Zhu exclaimed, and she reached out to touch her wife's forehead. When she saw that she had a fever, she immediately shouted to the driver, "Hurry up, hurry up, we have to get back to the mansion as soon as possible!"

Li Wanqiu closed his eyes and felt a severe headache. His limbs ached as if they were hit by a sledgehammer.

She sighed inwardly, wondering if the country girl had seen something or was just talking nonsense. Perhaps she should have listened to her and left that place earlier.

Soon after, the carriage drove back to the mansion at high speed. As soon as Li Wanqiu landed, she felt her feet go weak and she almost fell. Fortunately, Luzhu was quick to support her.

Li Wanqiu leaned against Luzhu and returned to the room. As soon as she lay down, she felt as if her whole body was burned by fire, and it was hot and uncomfortable.

Not long after, the doctor came in a hurry. He felt Li Wanqiu's pulse and showed a solemn expression on his face, "Madam, you have a cold in your body. You need to be treated in time, otherwise your condition will get worse."

"Then I'll trouble you, doctor." Li Wanqiu said weakly.

.........

Today's Xu family's dinner was a big pot of sweet potato porridge, which was sweet but not very filling. Together with three piles of pickles and the white flour buns that Xu Qingyi had brought back, they made do with a dinner.

However, the Xu family’s dinner was not as good as that eaten by the servants in the clinic.

Although the Xu family's dinner was simple, Xu Qingyi had already gotten used to it. Today's porridge was much thicker. It must have been because Zhu saw him coming back and added more sweet potatoes and rice to it.

She knew that the family was not wealthy, and her father and uncle could only make ends meet with their hard work every day.

"Grandma, Dad, Uncle, Bai Yan and I have agreed to go up the mountain tomorrow to look for any medicinal herbs that are easy to prepare in the back of our village.

In the future, after you have picked and processed the herbs, you can also send them to the clinic to exchange for some money to supplement your family income. "After finishing her dinner, Xu Qingyi told her family about her previous plan.

When everyone in the Xu family heard what Xu Qingyi said, Zhang's hands that were cleaning the dishes paused for a moment, and she simply sat down and listened attentively.

"Can what you learned in the clinic be passed on to outsiders?" Zhu asked Xu Qingyi in a low voice.

"Before I came back, I asked the master of the clinic. He said we can learn as much as you can."

"But, are we capable of doing the delicate work of preparing medicinal materials?" Xu Qingyi's father Xu Dafu asked hesitantly.

"Everything starts from not understanding to knowing and then to being familiar with it. At the beginning, I will only find some herbs that only need to be picked and dried for you to get started and let you get used to it first.

There are various medicinal herbs that can be harvested. Some of them can be harvested all year round. So, I plan to pick a few herbs in each season to teach you how to harvest and prepare them, specifically focusing on these herbs.

Once you get the hang of it, you can then add more varieties of harvested and processed herbs.

I have two days of retreat every month, and I will explain in detail the growth characteristics, harvesting time and method, processing techniques, etc. of each medicinal material, so that you can have a deep understanding of the characteristics of the medicinal materials and the methods of harvesting and processing.

Moreover, after I was promoted to apprentice, I was assigned to the task of purchasing, identifying and pricing medicinal materials. In the future, when you bring medicinal materials to the pharmacy, they will have to be identified and priced by me.

Although I cannot give us a back door and charge a high price for the medicinal materials, I can point out the shortcomings and areas for improvement in your medicinal material preparation, and also improve your proficiency in preparing medicinal materials.

This is also a craft that can be passed down from generation to generation. If you are diligent, you can harvest as much as we harvest in the fields in a year by picking and preparing herbs in one season. "Xu Qingyi told the family members that he had already prepared and planned.

"Since the pharmacy doesn't stop you from spreading what you've learned, I think I'll let your father and uncle go up the mountain with you to look for medicinal herbs tomorrow." When Zhu heard this, her eyes lit up.

Learning a craft can not only make money, but also pass down the craft from generation to generation, which makes Zhu excited.

She has suffered all her life, but what she is least afraid of is suffering. As long as she can make money and fill her stomach, she is willing to give everything.

"Qingyi, you said that you are now assigned the tasks of purchasing, identifying and pricing medicinal materials in the pharmacy. You have really become more capable." Little Zhu came back to her senses and asked Xu Qingyi with a happy face.

"Yes, maybe I have this talent, so my master arranged me to do this job." Xu Qingyi nodded with a smile. Seeing that the family had other ways to make money, they were all very happy.

Their happiness and satisfaction are always so easy.

Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan returned from the town's Huichun Clinic. The news that they had been promoted to apprentices in the clinic spread throughout the village in an instant.

Most of the villagers in the same village are simple and kind, and they are happy for the Xu and Bai families. If they feel unwell in the future, they can go to Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan to see them. As for jealousy, there is no such thing.

Because the villagers all knew that Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan had sold themselves to the clinic, what would happen in the future would not only be up to their families but also up to themselves.
