Rebirth 1977 Great Era

Chapter 126: Resumption of College Entrance Examination, Mid-Month Conference (4K)

When Fangyan returned home, he found his parents were in the living room, as if they had been waiting for a long time.

"Where is the child?" Fang Yan asked them when he didn't see the baby he picked up.

"Keep your voice down, I'm just trying to coax him to sleep." The old woman quickly made a gesture to keep quiet and spoke to him in a low voice.

Fangyan nodded and went to wash up.

"Hey, don't go, you haven't told me what happened today?" The old lady hurriedly stopped him:

"We are waiting for your news here, otherwise we would have gone to bed long ago."

Fang Yan looked at their curious expressions and said with a smile:

"Zhu Lin's parents have officially agreed to our relationship."

After hearing the news, Fang Zhenhua and his wife He Huiru both breathed a sigh of relief.

"I said that nothing strange would happen in their family, and you were just overthinking it before." Fang Zhenhua said to his wife.

He Huiru muttered unhappily:

"It's because people say Fu Zhaojun is very picky. I'm afraid she will dislike our son because his education level is not as good as her daughter's, and his job is not as good as her daughter's."

Fang Zhenhua heard this and waved his hand:

"Well, you just like to imagine things every day, but the facts prove that no one said anything."

He paused for a moment, then asked Fang Yan:

"By the way, her mother didn't say much?"

Fangyan responded:
"No, I just said I agreed, and then we chatted about family matters. He was pretty easy to talk to."

After hearing what Fang Yan said, Father Fang Zhenhua became more confident and said:

"See, I told you that the rumors out there are not credible. They are all made up by those old ladies when they have nothing better to do. Didn't someone say before that someone had developed a perpetual motion machine?"

"We must believe that seeing is believing and hearing is false!"

When He Huiru heard the man's words, she said with disdain:
"Go away, go away. You keep saying these little words all day long. They are just hindsight. Why didn't I see you say them just now?"

As she spoke, she reminded:

"It could also be that the third child is young and he didn't understand some of the words, so he thought there was something wrong."

Fangyan was speechless. I felt it would be abnormal if I didn't feel embarrassed.

Is it my problem or my future mother-in-law's problem?
At this moment, Father Fang Zhenhua nodded seriously and said:
"You two will go to work together tomorrow morning. Then you can test her attitude and see if it's the same as what the third brother said."

"Well, I think it's okay!" Mother He Huiru nodded in agreement.

Fangyan shook his head and didn't bother to care about their plans. They wouldn't believe him anyway, so he just let them talk about it themselves tomorrow.

After washing up, Fangyan returned to his room and continued to look through the physiognomy book he had not finished reading. These were all texts without pictures, so it was a little difficult for Fangyan to learn. But fortunately, he had watched some video explanations in his previous life, so he could still understand some of the more abstract parts.

……

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was the middle of the month.

After the relationship was confirmed over a meal that day, He Huiru, the dialect-speaking mother, asked Zhu Lin's mother about her feelings, and finally she felt relieved.

The little girl is being raised at home but there is still no news about her parents or relatives. Nothing has been concluded yet, but the longer the time goes, the greater the probability of successful adoption. Fang's parents are living in this state of anxiety.

Fangyan found that Zhu Lin became more gentle and considerate after officially confirming their relationship.

She actually made breakfast and sent it to Fang's house, which made Fang Yan's parents very happy.

It can be seen that Her Majesty the Queen seems to be trying to gain favor and establish the impression of a good wife and mother.

Coming back to the physiognomy book, I encountered some bottlenecks in my dialect. I tried hard for a long time but still couldn't fully understand it. The main reason was that some concepts in the book were very abstract.

Even the book that Le Miao gave me later was the same.

But if the East is dark, the West will be bright.

He turned around and carefully studied the medical records and prescriptions given by Mr. Zhu. He quickly finished reading and understanding them all, and let the system help him.

The dialect suddenly revealed many prescriptions for insect medicine and Mr. Zhu’s valuable experience in treating difficult and complicated diseases.

Thinking that Meng Jimin had the other half, Fangyan went to his house to ask if they could exchange readings.

It turned out that this kid had actually found some books on physiognomy and was studying them, and he hadn't read a single word of the other half of the notes given by Mr. Zhu.

Fangyan took a look and found that the physiognomy books in his hands were "The Complete Works of Divine Physiognomy" and "The Jade Tube Illuminating the Divine Bureau", one from the martial arts school and the other from the academic school.

After communicating with him, Fangyan discovered that Meng Jimin had a high talent for physiognomy and could even distinguish quite a few abstract explanations of physiognomy.

Fangyan guessed that it should have a lot to do with his talent for painting.

So Fang Yan decided to let him study it first, and then learn from him after he finished studying. He himself would first master the Five Poisons Secret Book given by Mr. Zhu.

He took away another book of Mr. Zhu's medical records on difficult and complicated diseases and insect medicines.

Start studying seriously and prepare to understand it thoroughly.

At the same time, changes also occurred in the outside world.

First, the national conference was held on August 12, with more than 1,500 people from all over the country attending the conference.

On the second day after the conference began, that is, August 13, the National College Admissions Work Conference was held in Beijing. Although the specific resumption time had not yet been finalized, the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination spread throughout the country overnight.

Although he had been prepared for this, Fangyan couldn't help but feel a little excited. He had been looking forward to it for a long time, and it finally came.

On that day, various textbooks on the market began to become in short supply, as if everyone was eager to get into college this year, change their lives, and hold their heads high.

People on the bus, at work, and in bookstores are discussing the news.

The excitement level of the dialect was the lowest.

Even Meng Jimin, who was in his thirties, planned to take the college entrance examination. He even gave up his physiognomy skills and started looking for teaching materials for the college entrance examination.

He said that he and his wife were planning to take the college entrance examination together, and their goal was Peking Union Medical College. As for why he didn't go to the Capital Medical University or Yenching University of Chinese Medicine, which were its superior institutions, the reason was very simple. He only wanted to go to the most difficult one, as he thought there were the most talented people there.

As for Fangyan reminding him that the place taught Western medicine, Meng Jimin said that he could teach others Chinese medicine, so he planned to learn Western medicine and try it. Maybe he could combine Chinese and Western medicine.

Hearing what he said, Fangyan immediately became alert.

After so many years of combining Chinese and Western medicine, it was finally proven to be a wrong path.

An old doctor who spoke in dialect in my previous life once said that Chinese medicine began to compromise with Western medicine on a large scale from this time on. Later, Western medicine methods were used to prove the scientific nature of Chinese medicine, which was unscientific in itself.

However, Fangyan also knows that it is not easy to change this history.

Still need to think about it in the long run. Back to reality, on August 13, Fang Yan received a notice from Dean Ouyang that the Huangqi Chongteng Drink jointly signed by the hospital and him had passed the review of the health department.

It is said that this prescription has begun to be used to treat stroke in various traditional Chinese medicine hospitals and cadre sanatoriums in Beijing.

The reason why it has not been issued nationwide yet is that the Ministry of Health wants to observe the efficacy and provide feedback on medical records.

At the same time, Fangyan also got the watch ticket and bicycle ticket promised by Director Luo of Tongrentang, and also brought the accurate notice to attend the mid-month meeting on the 15th.

Then on August 14th, Dad Fang Zhenhua received a notice that his position as associate professor was finally promoted to professor.

On the same day, Fangyan was also invited to meet with the foreign affairs department.

They discussed the matter of taking Bachukayev's children as apprentices. After the conversation, Anton and Sofia were officially confirmed by the authorities and accepted as apprentices by Fangyan.

This is called a diplomatic mission.

It was also said that if the impact was good, there would be rewards, but it didn’t say what the rewards would be, but it shouldn’t be empty talk.

The first lesson Fang Yan taught his apprentices from these two organizations was to read Sun Simiao's The Great Physician's Oath.

Let them understand what basic skills are needed.

Surprisingly, the two did not complain at all, and soon began to memorize those basic ancient books seriously.

On the same day, the noise in Yan Hua's ears, which had been undergoing treatment for many days, finally disappeared.

Tests confirmed that approximately 30 percent of hearing had been restored.

Then Fangyan gave him a set of textbooks for the college entrance examination as agreed.

It was August 15th, and the Ministry of Health's mid-month meeting was held as scheduled. Fang Yan was going to attend the meeting as a representative of Tong Ren Tang and give a speech at the meeting.

The meeting was scheduled to be held at No. 1 Xizhimenwai South Road, the venue of the Ministry of Health. The meeting was of a party and exchange nature and was not formal, but none of the participants took it lightly.

Early in the morning, after eating the breakfast made by the Queen, Fangyan set off with her.

Both of them are going to attend the conference today, but one is going to speak on the stage and the other is going to dance on the stage.

When the two arrived at the gate of the Ministry of Health, they found that there were already quite a few people there.

Zhu Lin saw the leader of their Union Medical College at a glance.

After saying something to Fangyan, she hurried over to report in, change clothes and put on makeup.

However, Fangyan didn't see the leader of Tongrentang. He looked around but couldn't find anyone.

Instead, I saw Director Ouyang from Dongzhimen Hospital and a few others chatting together.

Dean Ouyang noticed him and immediately greeted him warmly:

"Same dialect, tsk!"

An authentic Hunan dialect attracted a lot of people's attention.

Fang Yan saw Dean Ouyang waving at him, and since he didn't see anyone from Tongrentang, he walked over.

"Come on, come on, we're just right to talk about you!" Dean Ouyang was very enthusiastic. The medical records and prescriptions that had been submitted made him proud, and he wanted to praise Fangyan.

Dean Ouyang waited until Fang Yan arrived and then introduced him to the other people:
"Let me introduce you to this doctor who prescribed Huangqi Chongteng Yin. He's an expert in our hospital... Comrade Fangyan."

There is no mention of Tongrentang in this statement. Fangyan is clearly holding a temporary position, but he speaks as if he is a full-time employee.

Fangyan glanced at a few people and found that they were all doctors in their fifties and sixties. They were all wearing casual clothes and party badges, so it was impossible to tell which hospital they were from.

Dean Ouyang introduced:
"This is Dr. Huang from Xiyuan Hospital, this is Dr. Lin from the Chinese Medicine Hospital, and this is..."

Fang Yan then realized that they were all leading cadres from other hospitals, so he quickly greeted them.

Those who haven’t met Tongrentang know that his current identity is an expert at Dongzhimen Hospital.

These people were also looking him up and down.

One of the oldest leaders exclaimed:
"Oh wow, you look so young. Your recipe for Huangqi Chongteng Yin is really amazing. We used it in clinical practice and it was immediately proven to be effective."

"As long as it works." Fangyan nodded.

Another one also said:

"Our hospital has also tried it and it is indeed very effective. The patient had difficulty swallowing due to weak throat muscles after a stroke, but after taking the medicine, the symptoms were relieved on the same day. It is very effective!"

Without waiting for Fangyan to answer, someone else echoed:
"Yes, we have used it, and it really works. An old soldier had mild limb numbness, and after diagnosis, it was found to be a pre-stroke. We directly used this prescription plus acupuncture, and the symptoms were relieved on the same day."

"Before I came here this morning, I had someone hand over the medical records that the Ministry of Health requested. The efficacy of the medicine is indeed much stronger than other prescriptions, and the dosage seems to have been determined after many years of clinical experiments."

Fangyan couldn't expect them all to be so fast.

"Young people are really formidable. I thought this prescription was written by Master Zhu because of the way it was used..." After Master Huang of Xiyuan finished speaking, several people nodded:
"When the document came down from above a few days ago, I also thought it was the prescription written by Master Zhu. It's so similar."

"Me too, but later I saw that the doctor's name on the document was in dialect and the submitting unit was Dongzhimen Hospital, and then I realized I had made a mistake."

"Yes, I saw that it was a name I had never heard of before, so I asked Master Zhu's apprentice in our hospital to confirm it. I thought it was Master Zhu's apprentice, but now I find out that it is not."

Then everyone looked at Fangyan as if he were looking at a treasure. The oldest, Mr. Huang, said:
"He's so young and has come up with such a powerful prescription. His future is limitless."

"When this recipe is fully promoted throughout the country, everyone in the medical field will know about it."

Fangyan quickly became polite and kept saying "I dare not, I dare not". Anyway, at times like this, the one unchanging rule is that you just need to be humble. No matter how people praise you, just be humble. The more humble you are, the better impression people will have of you.

This past life experience allowed Fangyan to perform very well on this occasion.

Later, when everyone found out that his master was Lu Donghua, who retired from Xiyuan Hospital, their expressions were a little strange.

Lu Donghua is also quite famous, but not for his medical skills, but for his traditional Chinese martial arts.

How could this traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, who is known for his martial arts, teach such an apprentice?
Damn it!
Anyway, no one believes it.

You can tell what they are thinking by looking at their expressions.

If I told them that I was still a doctor at Tong Ren Tang, I guess they wouldn't even believe a single punctuation mark.

At this moment, Fangyan heard a voice calling him:
"Comrade Dialect!"

Fangyan looked in the direction of the voice and found that it was Director Luo.

"Comrade Fangyan, you are here? I've been looking for you everywhere." Director Luo strode over, followed by several people, all wearing clothes from Tongrentang Pharmaceutical Factory.

"Director Luo, I didn't see you just now." Fang Yan greeted him.

Before Director Luo could answer, one of the people who was talking to Fang Yan saw Director Luo coming over and immediately asked him:

"Hey, Xiao Luo, aren't you from Tong Ren Tang? What do you want to see Doctor Fang for?"
