Heaven and Ten Thousand Realms as Dao Patriarch

Chapter 196 Xu Xian Studying Medicine (Second Change)

Ten years passed in a blink of an eye.

Qiantang has been prosperous since ancient times. In recent years, disciples of the Xuantian Sacred Sect have come out to fight for righteousness. There are fewer and fewer criminals, so that Li Gongfu's work is getting easier and easier.

These years, Li Gongfu can be said to be proud of his spring breeze. He has been upgraded from an ordinary catcher to a head catcher, and his cultivation has broken through to the innate level. He is a master in the entire Qiantang County.

Not only that, last year he also married a beautiful wife named Xu Jiaorong.The bride is very beautiful, and she is also good at housework. She is definitely a good wife and mother.

The only fly in the ointment is that Xu Jiaorong also brought a younger brother, Xu Xian, who had to be supported by Li Gongfu.

But that's just a small problem. As the chief arrester of Qiantang County, Li Gongfu will be the head of the County Public Security Bureau in future generations. His annual salary and subsidies are not small, and it is easy to support a brother-in-law.

After he returned home that day, Xu Jiaorong said to Li Gongfu worriedly: "Gongfu, my Chinese language was scolded by the master again in the school today."

When Li Gongfu heard this, he didn't know how to answer.

Although he listened to Xu Jiaorong's words and sent Xu Xian to study in a school, but his brother-in-law didn't seem to be suitable for studying.

He has been studying for more than a year, and now Xu Xian doesn't know anything about poetry and classics. He always deserts and sleeps in class, and is often scolded by the teachers in the academy.

How does Li Gongfu answer this?You can't say to your wife: "Your brother is really not suitable for studying, let him go home and herd cattle."

Just when Li Gongfu was a little embarrassed, a handsome young man aged sixteen or seventeen came over and said nah: "Sister, brother-in-law, I have also thought about it these few days, and I feel that I am really not suitable for studying. I won't go to the academy anymore."

Needless to say, this handsome young man was none other than Xu Xian.Although Xu Xianwen is not a martial artist, but he is really handsome, much stronger than those little fresh meats that Wang Xuan has seen in his previous life.

No wonder the white lady was also fascinated by this little boy, so she did not hesitate to give up the chance to become a fairy.

Just when the little boy Xu Xian expressed his opinion, his sister Xu Jiaorong rushed over angrily, grabbed his ear, and scolded: "Sister, I have worked so hard to bring you up, is it easy? Now It’s so hard for you to have the opportunity to study, but you don’t know how to cherish it, and I still expect you to give our Xu family glory!”

Xu Xian screamed and begged for mercy.

Li Gongfu also hurried forward to persuade Xu Jiaorong to calm down temporarily.

"My lady, don't be angry, listen to Hanwen's thoughts first." Li Gongfu said earnestly: "Hanwen seems to have his own idea, after all, it is a matter of his life, and we can't force him to make a decision."

"Forget it, my family's Chinese language is indeed not suitable for studying!" Xu Jiaorong suddenly became bitter, and said angrily: "Speak out all the petty thoughts in your heart."

As the saying goes, "the so-called knowing son is like a father", Xu Xian's parents died early, and it was Xu Jiaorong who brought him up all the time. Her elder sister undoubtedly played the same role as her parents, and she naturally couldn't be more clear about her younger brother.

Xu Jiaorong had also discovered that Xu Xian was not material for studying, but she still had hope in her heart, hoping that Xu Xian would suddenly become enlightened.

When Xu Xian saw his sister, he was finally willing to listen to his opinion. Immediately he was in high spirits, and said confidently: "As the saying goes, if you are not a good looker, you are a good doctor!"

"My Chinese language is not material for studying. It is not feasible to pass the imperial examination and enter the imperial court. Naturally, it is impossible to become a good minister. But I still have some talents in studying medicine. A classmate of mine owns a pharmacy. I I borrowed a medical book from him and studied by myself for a few days, and quickly figured out a lot of pharmacology."

"What? You actually have the talent to study medicine?" Xu Jiaorong was a little surprised when she heard this, but she didn't object.

Doctors had a relatively high status in ancient society. After all, who doesn't have a fever and a cold, and still counts on doctors to treat them!
Especially those famous doctors with superb medical skills, even dignitaries should be polite when they see them.

"Gongfu, do you think this matter is reliable?" Xu Jiaorong hesitated, after thinking for a long time, she finally looked at Li Gongfu.

Li Gongfu is now considered to be the number one person in the entire Qiantang County, and his eyesight and insight are naturally much better than Xu Jiaorong's, so when encountering major events, Xu Jiaorong will let Li Gongfu make decisions.

"Since Hanwen wants to study medicine, it is of course a good thing!" Li Gongfu first affirmed Xu Xian's idea, and then thought about finding a suitable place for his brother-in-law to study medicine.

"Since you want to learn Chinese medicine, you can't just settle for it. Just find a small medical center to learn. If you want to learn, go to Baicaotang in the county!"

The so-called Baicaotang is a medical clinic established by the disciples of Xuantian Shengzong's outer sect, and it has now developed into the largest medical clinic in Qiantang County. Even the county magistrate will go to Baicaotang to see a doctor when he is sick.

When Xu Jiaorong heard that Li Gongfu was going to arrange for Xu Xian to study medicine in Baicaotang, a smile appeared on Xu Jiaorong's face.Obviously she is very satisfied with this arrangement, and going to Baicaotang to study medicine is a good way out.

If Xu Xian could become the in-house doctor of Baicaotang, he could always earn dozens of taels of silver a month, support his family and other things easily, and save some money to buy dozens of acres of land, becoming a landlord and local tyrant...

Both my sister and brother-in-law have made a decision, so Xu Xian naturally has no reason to object.Moreover, he has always heard of the reputation of Baicaotang, and he has long been yearning for it. Now that he has the opportunity to study medicine in Baicaotang, he is too happy.

There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, Li Gongfu took Xu Xian out together, and went to Baicao Hall to post worship posts.

The bosses of Baicao Hall are all outer disciples of Xuantian Sacred Sect, and Li Gongfu is also an outer disciple of Xuantian Sacred Sect. In terms of status, they are still their seniors. Naturally, no one who is not open-eyed jumped out to stop them.

After a handover and registration, Xu Xian became an apprentice of Baicaotang, learning pharmacology with Dr. Zhao, and helping with chores.

When Xu Xian officially started his medical study career, he realized that studying medicine was not as simple as he imagined.

He was full of self-confidence at first, thinking that his talent in medicine was overwhelming, and he could learn many tricks by himself with a medical book.

However, it turned out that he was thinking too much.

Xu Xian does have some talent for studying medicine, but it's just a little better than ordinary people, at most he can be considered a one-in-a-million genius.
