Don't disturb me, I won't be a concubine

Although Hui'antang has just arrived in the capital and has no foundation or reputation here, it is not difficult to recruit two apprentices.

Dr. Tan waited in the hospital for a few days before someone came to his door. However, the number of people who came was mixed. There are many like Meng Dong who only have passion and want to learn a craft that can support themselves and their families, and have no experience with medical skills except when they are sick.

Having already accepted Meng Dong, Dr. Tan doesn't want to hire anyone who knows nothing about medicine. Otherwise, there won't even be anyone to draw medicine, and things can easily go wrong.

In order to find suitable candidates, Dr. Tan was patient and would not open the medical clinic until he could find people for one day.

By the end of the month, Dr. Tan finally found all the people and one more. Including Meng Dong, there were four apprentices in Hui'an Hall. Of course, except for Meng Dong, the other three young people all know some medical skills to a certain extent.

The medicinal materials and other materials in the medical center were also ready, and everything was ready. Doctor Tan chose a day to reopen Hui'an Hall.

Dong Jiafu was also there that day, watching Dr. Tan personally remove the red cloth covering the signboard, and Hui'an Tang officially opened for treatment in the capital.

Dr. Tan didn't want to be too conspicuous, so he asked Meng Dong to tell Cui Qiyan the news that the medical clinic would reopen today, and gave him many instructions so that he didn't have to come over.

Cui Qiyan did not come, but he asked Meng Dong to bring a congratulatory gift.

As soon as the medical clinic reopened, people from nearby came to see the doctor. Dr. Tan, who had never seen a patient since he was framed and imprisoned years ago, was full of energy when facing patients again.

There were few patients and the hospital had enough manpower, so Dong Jiafu and Tan Hao worked together to teach Meng Dong about various medicinal materials.

At the end of the day, Meng Dong could only remember a few types, and complained endlessly: "Oh my God, learning medicine is too difficult-"

Tan Hao was working on the side, "Knowing the medicinal materials is the most basic. Even if you memorize them all, it is not considered a beginner. It can only be used to formally learn medical skills."

"Ah?!" Meng Dong's face fell, "Then I probably won't be able to get started in this life. There are hundreds of medicinal materials. When will I be able to memorize them all?"

"I was impulsive. I just wanted to learn some medical skills so that I could surpass Lu Yue and be with Afu more often. In fact, I couldn't learn it at all. Lu Yue was right, I didn't even know how to read. I wanted to Studying medicine is just whimsical.”

Seeing that she gave up so quickly, Dong Jiafu quickly consoled her: "Meng Dong, if you want to learn a skill well, you must have enough perseverance and don't rush it. Have you forgotten what you said when you decided to learn medicine? Only now It’s just the beginning, so you can’t let yourself get discouraged.”

Learning medicine is not easy, and Tan Hao knows this best. He has been exposed to it since he was a child, and now he cannot treat patients alone. What's more, Meng Dong is a half-way monk and has no foundation at all.

In order not to dampen Meng Dong's enthusiasm for studying medicine, Tan Hao changed his words: "Just because you are not good at studying, it does not mean that you cannot learn medical skills. In fact, medical skills are closely related to each of us. Even if you just memorize the effects of some medicinal materials, it will not be good for you." You are also extremely useful. If you want to show your face in front of Lu Yue, it is enough."

Meng Dong looked at him blankly, "Really? Even if I only write down these medicinal materials, can Lu Yue not dare to look down on me?"

Seeing that she was only thinking about competing with Lu Yue, Tan Hao couldn't help but wonder, "Who is Lu Yue? Do you have any issues with her? Why do you always want to overpower her?"

"It's...there's nothing wrong with it, it's just that I don't like to hear what she says. I can't be inferior to her in everything. I want to have one skill that she can't easily learn, so I decided to study medicine." Meng Dong explained.

Tan Hao still can't understand. Isn't this just a competition between two girls? For the sake of a little face, they have to force themselves to learn such difficult things. Isn't this torture to themselves?

Dong Jiafu looked at his slightly frowned eyebrows and added: "Meng Dong and Lu Yue have known each other since they were young, and now they both work around Crown Prince Cui. Both of them have a temper that refuses to admit defeat, and they often quarrel."

Dong Jiafu turned to Meng Dong and said, "I know you no longer hate Lu Yue, and you have even regarded her as a friend in your heart. I think Lu Yue treats you the same way. It's just that you all regard her as a friend." Hiding deep in my heart, I have gotten used to the old way of getting along with each other over the years, and I still can’t help but quarrel when we meet."

"You must also understand that what Lu Yue said to you was not malicious. You and Lu Yue are two different people. Lu Yue does some things better than you, but you also have something that she doesn't have."

"Is it a good thing?" Meng Dong was confused, why didn't she know?

Dong Jiafu chuckled, "Of course, do you want to hear a secret?"

"What secret is it about Lu Yue?" Meng Dong's eyes lit up.

Dong Jiafu nodded, "Lu Yue once told me that she envied you, your free and easy character, your parents who love you, and your brother and sister-in-law who are so good to you. Look, you What she has is something she can never get no matter how hard she works.”

Her words made Meng Dong silent for a while before he spoke: "Lu Yue is so pitiful. Ever since she disobeyed her parents and came to Chenglin Pavilion, she seemed to have lost contact with her family. She didn't even visit during the Chinese New Year." Go home. Compared with her, I am indeed much happier."

"Yes, you know her well. Even if she is full of holes inside, she still has to hold on and prevent others from seeing it. She can feel more relaxed when she bickers with you." Dong Jiafu did not forget to remind her, "This You must never go back and tell her the secret."

"Afu, don't worry, I won't tell anything. If she knows that I know about this, she will definitely be embarrassed."

"I'm telling you this, just to stop putting too much pressure on yourself. To learn medical skills, you can learn as much as you can. You don't have to do it for anyone. It doesn't matter if you really can't learn it. After all, in Da Yin, only a few hundred people can do it. There is someone who knows medicine."

After listening to her words, Meng Dong suddenly became enlightened, and his mood that was originally depressed due to rote memorization of medicinal materials suddenly improved.

"I understand Afu, and I will learn for myself from now on."

Seeing Meng Dong smile, Dong Jiafu felt relieved. She didn't want to see Meng Dong in pain because of learning medical skills. A good girl couldn't turn into a bitter face all day long.

After thinking about it, Meng Dong regained his enthusiasm and said, "Afu, senior brother, please teach me a few more medicinal materials."

Tan Hao and Dong Jiafu looked at each other and smiled, "Okay."

Everything went smoothly on the first day of the medical clinic's reopening. It will take some time to gain people's trust, but Dong Jiafu has confidence in the medical skills of the master and his colleagues, and believes that Hui'antang will soon have a firm foothold in the capital.

After Dong Jialin got the third storybook written by Dong Jiafu, he worked non-stop to find someone to copy it. The first batch of storybooks were quickly sold out in bookstores.
