Chapter 15 The old man also wants to be coaxed

Doctor Liu raised his eyebrows. It is rare for him to have such a stable mentality at such a young age. As a doctor, the most taboo thing is emotionality. He has seen many births, old age, illness and death, and being too emotional is asking for trouble.

"By the way, this is your salary last month. Here you go, count it yourself."

Doctor Liu threw a small money bag and caught up with him, with a mysterious smile on his face.

Ji Youyi was confused and opened the bag: "Isn't my salary paid in advance? Why is it still there?"

She counted a total of three hundred coins, which was a lot of money.

"You are my apprentice now, and your status is different from before. Naturally, the salary is also different. Now it is 600 cash per month. How about it? I am a cheap master, not bad, right?"

Doctor Liu finally understood what she meant yesterday. The apprenticeship and taking care of the medicine field were all fake. It was just to hide her medical skills.

He didn't want to ask where she learned her medical skills, but he still had to give her what was due.

"Master, you have helped me enough, I can't take any of this." Ji Youyi pushed the money bag back.

"You don't need it yourself, but what about An An? Don't you think about him?" Dr. Liu is a person who cherishes talents. He knows that Ji Youyi has real abilities and doesn't want her to worry about a few coins. "An An is getting older, and she needs money.

There are many places, if you don’t care more about it now, what will you do in the future?”

In the future? Of course, I will work harder to make money.

Ji Youyi knew that what he said was right. Although she didn't care about the few pennies, she was still grateful in her heart.

She is not a hypocritical person, and she does need money now. After taking the money, she will buy more food and drink as a filial piety.

"Then disciple, I would like to thank the master for considering me. I will accept the money." Ji Youyi accepted the money and then thought about it, "Master, have you heard anything about the news in the city recently?"

"There are a lot of rumors in the city, which one are you talking about?"

"In this city, which big family is in a hurry to seek medical advice?"

Ji Youyi's question was cryptic, as if it was really just for gossip.

"Generally, wealthy families have doctors they are familiar with, but recently I heard that the Zhang family is looking for a famous doctor. Why are you interested in asking this? I remember that the scholar from the Zhang family seemed to want to forcefully marry you before."

Doctor Liu thought for a while and felt that there was something fishy in this. However, Ji Youyi had not gone out recently, so he thought that this matter had nothing to do with her. Instead, he thought that she wanted to make money.

He warned: "As a doctor, although we should treat patients equally, people still have to be divided into good and evil. This family is not a good one."

"Don't worry, Master. I understand. I have no intention of going into this muddy water. I am just idle and gossiping." Ji Youyi thought of Zhang Xiucai and her plan to make money.

She was a little embarrassed and asked: "Master, do you think the medicinal wine I mentioned yesterday is feasible?"

"Medicinal wine?" Dr. Liu stroked his beard, "It's feasible, but which kind of medicinal wine?"

"Of course it's the kind that can make a lot of money."

Her main idea is to make medicinal wine to aphrodisiac. Those wealthy businessmen who have been drained of their wealth by drinking and sex are definitely flocking to this kind of thing.

Doctor Liu is not optimistic about it. The wealthy businessmen have a lot of money and don't need any aphrodisiac drugs. This little medicinal wine really can't tempt them.

He said in embarrassment: "Girl, this money is not easy to make. Those of them, to put it bluntly, have never seen any good things. As you can imagine, other doctors have already sent them here, and the one who makes trouble will offend others."

, I’ll forget it.”

"Master is right, I was too abrupt." Ji Youyi listened to his words and felt that she was too confident, "Master, I want to take a leave tomorrow and take An An to the city to buy some things."

She shook the money bag and smiled happily.

"Okay, but don't just be happy. You still have to memorize today's prescription. After you finish memorizing this book, you can go on medical visits with me."

"That's natural. Master, please rest. I'll endorse it first and cook you a delicious meal later."

Ji Youyi was happy after taking the money, and she was even more enthusiastic when she started doing things.

After putting down the book, I put on my straw hat and went to the medicinal field to pull weeds.

The weeds in the medicinal field must be dealt with carefully, and then the condition of the medicinal herbs must be carefully examined. After this period of work, she has already gained experience.

A few medicinal fields were not too much, not too little. After finishing processing, it was already noon, and then she went back to the kitchen to cook.

Ji An was very sensible and had already cooked the rice when she came back.

Ji Youyi wet the towel and wiped his little face. The little child could go to the stove and do these things with a chair. He was so virtuous that it made people feel heartbroken.

"What would An An want to eat today? Mom will cook it for you."

"Meat, vegetables." An An didn't quite understand yet, she just thought that was what she ate on weekdays.

Ji Youyi took out some vegetables from the vegetable basket on the side. The meat and vegetables that Aunt Wang gave her yesterday were specially brought over today. She also prepared the ingredients herself.

"Today, my mother will make you a steamed pork ribs."

Steamed pork ribs is not easy to make. The marinated pork ribs are wrapped in five-spice rice noodles and steamed in a pot. This way of eating is definitely not something that ordinary poor people would do.

As soon as the ribs were served, Doctor Liu's eyes suddenly lit up, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Ji Youyi was different.

"Girl, I'm really becoming more and more curious about you."

He put a piece of meat into his mouth, it was fragrant and glutinous, crispy, and left a fragrant taste in his mouth. Ji Youyi poured him a glass of wine, knowing that ordinary people don't have the leisure time to spend so much time studying food.

She didn't answer, looked at him with a meaningful smile, and then concentrated on taking care of An An's meal.

"By the way, Master, do you have any children's enlightenment books here? An'an will be four years old soon, and it's time to start reading and literacy."

"There are some Three-Character Sutra and Disciple Rules behind the bookshelf. Do you want to find a master for little An'an?" Dr. Liu was there, along his beard, with a small expression showing pride and excitement.

Ji Youyi snickered and said seriously: "It's different, I can read."

Not many girls' families are literate, and even fewer can write.

Doctor Liu refused to give up, "Although you are literate, An'an's enlightenment class is not only about reading and literacy, but also about understanding civilization and practicing writing. Why not hire a master for him?"

"Master, I understand everything."

Ji Youyi knew that he wanted to be An An's first teacher, but An An had some psychological problems and didn't trust others. Even if she knew him well now, there would still be a gap.

Dr. Liu's enthusiasm was not fulfilled, and the food on the table no longer tasted good.

He glared at Ji Youyi angrily, picked up the wine glass and took a sip, muttering in a low voice: "Humph, if you don't want to teach, I won't teach. I was not happy when I asked the emperor to teach me before."

Ji Youyi listened to his muttering and didn't take it seriously. She didn't know how to explain it to him, but she couldn't let him sulk. She quietly put a chopstick of meat into his bowl: "Master, eat two more pieces of meat.
