Chapter 3074

After knowing this, Mr. Qian went directly to Zhou man, "did Lord Zhou deliberately accept sister Hu in order to attract people to be apprentices?"

Zhou man said with a smile, "this is just one of the reasons. The most important reason is that Hu Dalang begged me. Hu Xiaomei also wanted to be an apprentice, so I accepted it."

Mr. Qian couldn't help asking, "how is her talent?"

"At least learning medicine is no problem."

Mr. Qian understood, and then went out all night. The next day, many people in Beihai county heard about it, especially the shopkeepers and doctors of the two drug stores. In their spare time, they met and chatted together. "I heard that the Medical Department accepted an apprentice yesterday. He was only nine years old. This is going to teach from an early age."

"I'm just an apprentice. I don't know if I can learn it."

"Most of all, there will always be no problem in filling medicine in the future. I heard that she is an ordinary little girl. Her family is poor. It is better to learn skills than to waste time at home and get married when she is old."

"With Lord Zhou's heart, although he is only an apprentice, he will certainly teach well."

"Yes, last time I asked her about her chest arthralgia, she specially searched the medical books and answered me. She still has this intention for us outsiders, let alone apprentices."

"Unfortunately, we were born at an untimely time. If we were born 20 years later, I would also go to the medical department as an apprentice."

"... shopkeeper, you are from Xinglin family. Even if you are an apprentice, should we go like this?"

"What's the matter? Jishitang gave their young shopkeeper to Lord Zhou as an apprentice. At that time, she was not famous all over the world." He felt that even if he could not be an apprentice, it was more than enough to be an apprentice.

It's a pity that I was born at an untimely time.

This incident did not cause much noise in Beihai county at first, but before long, someone took the child to the medical department and asked Zhou man to take the child.

Mr. Qian refused directly instead of Zhou man.

The medical department wants apprentices, but they are mature, have medical skills, at least have a certain understanding of pharmacology and can help. Hu Xiaomei is the first, so it's special. They won't collect them casually in the back.

Now everyone is busy. Who is free to take care of the children?

It was Hu Xiaomei. She was sensible enough and obedient enough. Zhou Mancai accepted her. She had done the work of cutting and grinding herbs for several months, and she was already familiar with it.

Now, she still has to do these jobs, but she used to have money, but now she doesn't. now, every time she cuts herbs, Zhou man will tell her what the herbs are called and what their properties are, and then let her cut and recite them all the time

The next time she needs to grind other herbs, Zhou man will tell her the name of the herbs and the properties of the herbs. She will continue to grind the herbs and carry them on her back.

Sometimes she can recite three or four herbs a day, sometimes she can only recite one. Sometimes she needs to recognize more than a dozen herbs in a row. If she can't remember, she will continue to recognize and recite such herbs next time.

It was a day job. Later, she had to read.

Most of the time, Zhou man teaches her certain words every day. Occasionally, Mr. Qian will teach her when he sees it.

But this kind of systematic learning is very difficult, especially this word is not from easy to difficult, it is to learn which medicine to which medicine.

After less than ten days of teaching, Zhou man felt that this was no good, because after ten days, Hu Xiaomei remembered two words and confused all the other words.

Fortunately, she remembered most of the herbs, otherwise Zhou man would doubt his judgment on her.

So Zhou man turned out a thousand character text from his study and gave it to her. He said, "it's too difficult to read from the name of medicinal materials. You'd better read from the thousand character text."

Zhou man teaches her two thousand word words every day, and then reads by himself.

This effect is much better. At least when Zhou man wrote for her to recognize, she finally recognized it.

Mr. Qian looked at it and couldn't help but wonder, "Lord Zhou, did your doctor learn to read from the name of the medicine?"

"I'm not," Zhou man said after thinking about it, "but other people learn it this way, not only the apprentices in the medicine shop, but also the disciples of Xinglin aristocratic family start to read from the medical books."

First recite the medicine name, medical theory and decoction, and then compare them word by word. Even Zheng Gu knew words like this when he was a child.

He's fine. He starts to read from memorizing the name of the medicine. Generally, apprentices recognize the medicinal materials first. When he knows almost the medicinal materials, he starts to read by comparison, and then he has to learn to take the prescription

Therefore, the process of apprenticeship to medicine is particularly long. It needs to be able to stand loneliness and endure hardship.

It's so boring that you can't even see the apprenticeship life ahead. Moreover, you have to do so many repetitive tasks every day.

While sitting in the Jishi hall, Zhou man looks at what the medicine boy apprentices have to do every day and replaces it on her. She feels that she may not be as good as them. She feels that her patience is not good enough.

Mr. Qian smiled and said, "that's why adults are different from them."

Mr. Qian thinks that since there is a better and more systematic learning method, why do we have to follow the habits of the pharmacy?

However, Hu Xiaomei also knows how difficult it is to learn medicine. I don't know how many years it will take for her to help Zhou man.

So they still need mature "apprentices", and Mr. Qian continues to work hard.

Finally, not long after the winter solstice, someone came to the door. It was a middle-aged doctor with a teenager. After entering the medical department, he directly found Zhou man, "Lord Zhou, we met again."

When Zhou Mancai finished dealing with a patient, he turned around and saw him stunned. Then he smiled, "Dr. Wei, please sit in the hall."

Dr. Wei is a doctor in Qingzhou. He has a medicine shop in his home. Naturally, he can't compare with such a big medicine shop as Jishitang herbal hall, but he is also famous in Qingzhou. Last time, he came with several doctors in Qingzhou to ask Zhou man for advice.

Zhou man still has patients. She can only let him sit a little. She reads the rest of the patients before she goes to receive them.

Because the last two patients were men, Dr. Wei also stood nearby and watched. Seeing Zhou man's prescription, he compared it in his heart. He couldn't help but sigh again. It was still a lot worse.

Zhou man not only prescribed a prescription, but also an injection prescription. However, she looked at the time and said to the two patients, "you have to eat first. It's almost noon now. You go to eat first and come back later. I'll give you an injection."

Both of them should leave immediately.

As soon as the patient left, Dr. Wei immediately called up the boy next to him and smiled with Zhou man, "Lord Zhou, this is a dog."

He communicated with Zhou man and knew that she didn't want to be polite, so he said directly, "I heard that Lord Zhou is taking an apprentice. What do you think of my son? He has studied with me for several years. It's no problem to see the prescription. Adults can call him if they need it. If they are stupid, they can beat and scold at will. "

The young man stood quietly aside and nodded in agreement when he saw Zhou man looking over.

Zhou man turns back to Dr. Wei. In fact, she doesn't like his son. She likes him, but how can she speak?

How sad.
