In fact, this is because many people do not understand Chinese medicine. Chinese medicine is also divided into levels. People of Shen Sanleng's level are definitely much faster than Western medicine, and basically the disease is cured.
There is also a man named Ye Jun. I heard that his medical skills are also superb, and he also has a female apprentice. I don’t know how good his apprentice’s medical skills are.
Of course, they heard this matter from hearsay, but there is always a cause for every effect, otherwise how could their rumors have spread.
Only one person remained silent. He leaned his head against the back of his chair, looking at the scenery outside the car window. He knew that these rumors were true because he knew Ye Jun and his apprentice.
If Cheng Qiao saw this person, he would definitely recognize him. He was Zhu Qingde from the cowshed. When his wife left him, she had a huge smile on her face.
Looking at Zhu Qingde now, he seems to be alone. His clothes are even simpler than when he was sent down to the countryside. His shoes are torn and even his toes are exposed.
"Master, you look so familiar. Where have I seen you before?"
Zhu Qingde was just about to close his eyes for a while when a man in his twenties opposite him looked at him seriously with confusion in his eyes.
Zhu Qingde turned his head and looked at the person opposite him. He didn't know him. Since he didn't know him, he didn't say anything nonsense. However, the person opposite him suddenly stood up and shouted excitedly:
"Boss Zhu, is that you? I was your apprentice back then, and later... I was a little scoundrel who was driven away by your wife. You even said that the word "little scoundrel" was an insult, and I didn't have any other name, so you named me Xiao Beishan."
At Xiaobei Mountain, Zhu Deqing’s thoughts went back to the most prosperous era of the Zhu family. The great shopkeeper Zhu in Shanghai was the head of a famous traditional Chinese medicine family.
The family has countless fields and properties, but Manager Zhu regards money as dirt, but has a special liking for medicinal herbs. It's okay if you take a box of silver dollars from Manager Zhu, but if you dare to take a ginseng from him, he will definitely fight you to the death.
Xiao Beishan was a teenager he picked up on the street. Seeing that the child had clear eyes and was eloquent, Manager Zhu felt kind-hearted and took the child to the pharmacy and handed him over to an old Chinese doctor.
This child had no name, and everyone called him "Little Medicine Boy". Until the shopkeeper Zhu got married, Yuan Mengzhi saw the child and directly called him "Little Punk". From then on, "Little Medicine Boy" became "Little Punk".
This matter was known to the shopkeeper Zhu. He was unhappy with Yuan Mengzhi's harshness, but they had just gotten married and it was not convenient to directly offend his wife, so he changed the name to Xiao Beishan.
The two names sound similar, but their meanings are completely different. Xiao Beishan was so moved that he regarded Manager Zhu as the most important person in his heart.
Some time before the building collapsed, Zhu Qingde of course moved all the things in his house, including Xiaobeishan, and also gave him a generous sum of money so that he could find another way out.
Xiao Beishan seemed to have sensed the impending storm, so he only asked for part of the money, but asked for some precious books from the Zhu family.
"Master, please accept my disciple's greetings."
Xiao Beishan walked to the corridor of the train and bowed down to Zhu Qingde. In those days, he also hid from place to place in order to protect these precious books.
Fortunately, he studied medicine very seriously back then, especially when it came to dispensing medicine. Once he got the herbs, he could tell their weight with almost extreme accuracy.
With this skill and the prescriptions he memorized, as well as helping the old Chinese doctors in the pharmacy, he became familiar with medicine and found a way to make a living.
When he calmed down and wanted to inquire about the whereabouts of Manager Zhu, he found out that he had been demoted, but he had no idea where he had been demoted.
But Xiao Beishan did not give up. However, the world was so big that he didn't know where to find anyone. Just then a friend told him that the Shen family was looking for a Chinese medicine doctor and asked him if he wanted to go.
When he heard about the Shen family, Xiao Beishan agreed without hesitation. He always had a feeling that perhaps by seeing Shen Sanleng he would be able to find Zhu Qingde.
With the blessing of the gods, he finally got what he wanted. After bowing, Xiao Beishan changed seats with others and sat next to Zhu Qingde:
"Master, where is your wife?"
Zhu Qingde was a little confused. He was just a child who was picked up. How could he become his apprentice? But since the other person said so, he just accepted it. After all, he was a human being.
"We separated, where have you been all these years?"
"Hey, dear teacher, it's hard for me to explain, but I have kept all the books in your house well. I just didn't know I would meet you here, otherwise I would have brought them out."
"No need, just leave it there. I was invited by Dean Shen this time, and I thought I had nothing to do anyway, so I decided to go and take a look."
Xiao Beishan looked at Zhu Qingde with gray hair on his temples and tears flowed unconsciously. This shopkeeper Zhu had changed so much that he could not recognize him.
When he first saw the shopkeeper Zhu, he was wearing a pearl satin and shantung gauze suit, with a string of unknown stone beads on his left hand and an unknown medicinal herb in his right hand. He was suave, classic and noble.
But looking at the current Manager Zhu, he has long lost his former high spirits and vigor, and even the strong aura of a young master from a noble family has disappeared.
It can be seen that he has suffered a lot over the years, but fortunately, all the hardships have paid off. Now he is here. He was originally an orphan and grew up under the protection of the shopkeeper Zhu. It is time for him to repay his gratitude.
"Master, you know I'm an orphan. I'll recognize you as my godfather."
Zhu Qingde was stunned for a moment, and his heart suddenly felt warm. He had no children in his life. Even his only relative, Yuan Mengzhi, left him quickly after returning to Shanghai, and no one knew where she went.
"Beishan, think carefully. I am no longer the Zhu Qingde of the past. Now... I don't have much money anymore."
Xiao Beishan wiped away his tears fiercely, stood up and walked to the corridor in the middle of the train, and knelt down heavily again: "Xiao Beishan is willing to recognize Zhu Qingde as his father. No matter whether my father is rich or poor, I will always value filial piety and benevolence in this life."
Someone at the side started clapping, and after a moment, the whole carriage was filled with warm applause and cheers. They were all witnesses of this recognition of father.
Zhu Qingde's heart was finally filled with hope. He had a son, and the unique medical knowledge passed down by his ancestors finally had descendants.
"Thank you all for your support. Today, I, Zhu Qingde, will recognize Xiao Beishan as my son. From now on, Xiao Beishan will be renamed Zhu Beishan. Son, get up quickly."
Zhu Beishan stood up after being pulled by Zhu Qingde and hugged Zhu Qingde with tears in his eyes. From then on, he had a father and was no longer wandering alone in this world.
