I wasn't sure if I could make the old-fashioned Lord Qiao agree to this, but to make Mrs. Qiao relent, I only needed a lie.
Hua Tuo was probably touched by my sincerity after being coaxed and coaxed by me, so he finally nodded and agreed. I was so happy that I snickered and whispered in his ear.
Hua Tuo couldn't help but frown at my words." Second Miss, isn't it too much to lie to Mrs. Qiao like this?"
I hurriedly coughed twice and interrupted him," Divine Doctor Hua, this is also a last resort. After I finish my apprenticeship, I will definitely find an opportunity to explain to her.”
"Sigh." Hua Tuo shook his head and sighed." Why are you so weird?"”Then, he left.
After Hua Tuo left, Mrs. Qiao gave me medicine according to his prescription for three days, but my illness still didn't improve. I couldn't help but feel a little guilty when I saw how anxious Mrs. Qiao was. Then, he thought, if he were to be soft-hearted now, wouldn't he be trapped in this courtyard forever? If Cao Cao comes to find trouble with Madam Qiao in the future, I'll definitely be helpless.
Her condition didn't improve, so Mrs. Qiao had to invite Hua Tuo over.
Hua Tuo pretended to take my pulse and sighed."Mrs. Qiao, there's something I don't know if I should tell you.”
" Divine Doctor Hua," Madam Qiao said in surprise," Xiyan, she... if she has any questions, please just say it."”
" By right," Hua Tuo said," Second Miss's illness should be nothing more than typhoid fever. It's not difficult to treat. Presumably, the doctors who came to see her in the past all diagnosed it this way."”Seeing that Madam Qiao was nodding, he continued," That's my diagnosis as well. According to the prescription I gave you a few days ago, you'll be cured after three days, but for some reason, you won't be cured."”
Mrs. Qiao was clearly frightened by him and sobbed,""Could it be that even Divine Doctor Hua is unable to cure him?”
" Sigh," Hua Tuo sighed again." Madam Qiao, the last time I came here, I heard Second Miss mention something. I thought it was ridiculous, but now that I think about it, it might really be true."”
"What is it?" Mrs. Qiao looked at me in bewilderment.
I secretly stuck out my tongue. Alright, it's time for me to show off. Although it wasn't a good idea to lie to Mrs. Qiao, at this critical moment…Uh, I'll just be thick-skinned for once.
"Mother." I called out weakly and looked at her pitifully.
In fact, the prescription Hua Tuo gave me was basically a painkiller and febrifuge medicine. Although it looked weak on the surface, at least my head doesn't hurt anymore.
When Mrs. Qiao heard me call out, she immediately rushed over and grabbed my hand."Xiyan, you…what happened to you?”
"Mother, these few days…these few days I've been dreaming.”
"Dream on? What dream?"
"I…I dreamed that I was in a very strange place. There was smoke everywhere. Then, two very ugly reapers came to catch me. He said…he said that I should have died when I fell into the water last time. He said that something happened to me, so…so…"
Mrs. Qiao gasped and took two steps back, covering her mouth.
I closed my eyes slightly and restrained the expression in my eyes. This was also half true and half false. After all, Xiao Qiao should have died a long time ago.
I continued,"These two reapers came to catch me every day. I ran for my life. One night, it was…the night that Divine Doctor Hua came last time. I was really caught by them." They dragged me into a black door. At this moment, a white-robed elder sister appeared. She said," I seem to have done something bad in my previous life, so I died early. However, on the account that I have not done any evil in this life, I can make an exception. As long as I save thousands of lives before I turn thirty, I can accumulate good fortune and live to a hundred years old."”
Mrs. Qiao was so scared that she couldn't even speak. She stared at me for a long time before suddenly crying.
"What…what should we do? Xiyan…"
Very good, the trick was successful! However, I was at least 80% confident.
These scholars in feudal society were superstitious and afraid of ghosts. When I first arrived, Madam Qiao couldn't wait to go to the Taoist temple to ask for talismans to fulfill her wishes. I knew that these people's knowledge was limited. But then again, I'm a little worried that they'll come and find trouble with me by randomly making up stories about those reapers. However, they don't have that much time, so they shouldn't be that bored, right?
Seeing how sad Mrs. Qiao was, I hurriedly added,"Mother, I've thought about it. I want to learn medical skills from Divine Doctor Hua and practice medicine to save the world. This way, I can save even ten thousand lives, let alone a thousand. As long as he accumulated merit, wouldn't he not be afraid of those vengeful spirits?”
"But, this…this…"
"Madame Qiao," Hua Tuo chimed in,"your daughter has such intentions, and she has good intentions. How can I not help?"”
Only then did Mrs. Qiao calm down a little. She stood up and wiped her tears, sobbing."This…I would rather believe in ghosts and gods. Healing people and doing good deeds is a matter of boundless merit. Since Divine Doctor Hua is willing to help, what else can I say? However, I still have to go to my husband to give him an explanation.”
Mrs. Qiao patted my hand." Xiyan, have a good rest. Let Mother…think about it for two days."”
That night, Mrs. Qiao brought up the matter with Lord Qiao. Even though Lord Qiao was usually calm and composed, when he heard this, he was so scared that his face turned pale. In addition, I really couldn't cure him for a long time. Even Hua Tuo said that he couldn't cure him, so he believed me at once. After a few more days, seeing that I was still not doing well, he probably was afraid that I would be too unlucky and jinx his parents, so he nodded and agreed.
Although he agreed, he still set a few rules. First, I can only treat women, and second, only when Hua Tuo is in the capital can I go out with him. If Hua Tuo leaves the capital, I can only go by car if the women of the families of the ministers in the court come to invite me. In short, it was impossible to open the door to practice medicine, and it was necessary to minimize public exposure.
No matter what, at least I can now follow Hua Tuo around the capital. I'm very satisfied. After all, my goal is just to do something big in the next few days. I can't do this without Hua Tuo. He has a very powerful thing on him, and I must get it.
Ever since Lord Qiao relented, it took me less than two days to formally acknowledge Hua Tuo as my master. After that, my illness was really good. In less than half a month, not only did I return to normal, but I was also alive and kicking again. This time, the Qiao couple had no choice but to believe him, and they had no way to refute him.
Once my body recovered, I officially became the last female disciple of Hua Tuo, the divine doctor of the Eastern Han Dynasty. I was secretly happy for a few days. Thinking about the Green Nacket Book that was burned by the jailer, if I could get it from Hua Tuo, coupled with modern medical concepts, I might also be famous in history and become a female divine doctor of a generation.
However, things are not as good as I thought…
