Xu Xiaole followed the prescription prescribed by Sun Yufeng and went to the town to catch medicine. He also booked pig galls at the butcher in the vegetable market. The butcher only killed two pigs every day, and only two pig galls, which happened to be called Xu Xiaole.

When he returned home, Xu Xiaole dug out the medicine pot and stove at home, and found the ancestor's notes on his experience in decorating medicine from the study. He followed it carefully, for fear of destroying the effect of the medicine. He has never been more serious in his reading since he was a child.

In May, Jiangnan was so hot that people were sweating while sitting, but Xu Xiaole squatted beside the stove, sometimes staring at the color of the fire, sometimes listening to the boiling sound of the soup in the medicine jar. He then repeatedly looked through the decoction manual in his hand, and pumping firewood when the fire became too high, and fanning the air when the fire became too low.

Hu Meiniang stood upstairs, looking at Xu Xiaole who was devoted to her body in the courtyard below through the window, and felt that the big boy suddenly became "interesting" and "charming". She had great eyesight and could see the sweat beads on his nose from afar. It was crystal clear and she always felt a little itchy in her heart, and she wanted to pick it off for him.

Xu Xiaole didn't know that the object of his furious fantasy was paying attention to him. He didn't even have time to wipe off his sweat. At this moment, there was only this stove and medicine jar between heaven and earth, and he could not accommodate other things.

The medicine soup was finally ready, Xiaole suddenly stood up, his eyes suddenly turned black and he almost fell down. He calmed down a little, and his joy surged up again. He carefully poured the medicine soup into a porcelain bowl, controlled his waist and bent his knees, for fear that he would spill it out if he walked too quickly.

When he arrived at Tong Wanqing's room, Xu Xiaole delivered the medicine to his sister-in-law and called softly: "Sister-in-law, are you awake? Just drink it."

Tong Wanqing forced her eyes to open her eyes and tried to sit up, but she collapsed and lost her strength. Xu Xiaole quickly put the medicine aside and wanted to reach out to help her sister-in-law sit up. Unfortunately, she saw her sister-in-law lying on the bed, but she didn't know how to start. She tried to penetrate her sister-in-law's armpit, but was stopped by her humming.

Seeing that Xu Xiaole was unaware of the problem, Tong Wanqing was indeed a person who could not serve others, so she had to say, "Come here."

Xu Xiaole passed by as he said, Tong Wanqing struggled to stretch out his hand, wrapped it around his neck, and nodded his head in a slight way. Xu Xiaolefu was in his mind, and quickly exerted force on his waist, lifted Tong Wanqing's upper body, naturally stretched his hands to his back, and gently lifted it, and the person had already sat up.

Tong Wanqing moved her body, leaned against the head of the bed, and looked at him sideways: "It's too big, it's not OK."

Xu Xiaole grinned and said, "Yes, I'm still young, I'm very young, I have to sleep with me at night."

Tong Wanqing really didn't have the strength to hit him, and saw Xu Xiaole's hair pressing against her scalp and her face was like it was taken out of water. She knew that he was working very hard for buying medicine for himself, and she felt distressed and moved.

Xu Xiaole took the medicine, slowly approached his sister-in-law, and fed her with a spoon, while saying, "You can't blow, you can't blow, the medicine will be gone after blowing." He was afraid that the medicine soup would be too hot, so he scooped it a few times.

Seeing Xu Xiaole's focused expression, Tong Wanqing thought to herself: I would only be naughty and annoying little harm in the past, and I would take care of people overnight.

Tong Wanqing took a spoonful of medicine and felt it was a little hot, but the soup came into the stomach bag from the esophagus, like cold water passing through the fire, and a coolness spread out from top to bottom, dispersing the irritability in her body. She couldn't wait for Xu Xiaole to feed it slowly, so she reached out to take the soup bowl: "I'll do it myself."

Xu Xiaole didn't dare to argue with his sister-in-law, for fear of spilling the medicine soup. However, seeing that his sister-in-law suddenly had some strength, it seemed that the medicine was not difficult to drink.

Of course the medicine is bitter, not to mention that pig bile was added. However, Tong Wanqing did not feel difficult to swallow at all, but felt extremely comfortable. After drinking a bowl of medicine, Tong Wanqing breathed a sigh of relief: "I feel like I'm alive."

Xu Xiaole smiled so hard that he couldn't stop and said, "It's good that the medicine can work! It seems that my uncle is not a scammer who cheats food and drinks, but a real paradise. He would definitely not lie to me if he wanted me to study medicine with him."

When Tong Wanqing heard Xu Xiaole say this, she smiled with relief: "Are you willing to study medicine well now?"

Xu Xiaole rarely said seriously: "I was afraid that studying medicine was just impatient to memorize the book, and it was useless. If I could learn the skills of my uncle, I could save people from suffering and be admired by one dose of medicine, of course I would be very happy to learn it."

Tong Wanqing was sleepy and murmured, "Then you have to work hard..." After saying that, she was already asleep. Xu Xiaole looked at Tong Wanqing in pain many times in the past two days, tossing and turning. Seeing her sister-in-law so peaceful and quiet, she admired Sun Yufeng even more.

He returned to the study, took out the paper pills he had when buying medicine, and unfolded them one by one.

This kind of paper pill is the industry rules of the pharmacy shop. It prints the pictures of the medicinal materials purchased by the customers, which states the pharmacology and properties, various applications and taboos. A more sophisticated shop will also wrap some sample samples in the paper pills. Therefore, long-term illness may not necessarily become a good doctor, but if someone in the family is sick for a long time, it is inevitable to collect many such drawings.

Xu Xiaole took the drawings and compared the specimens attached to the pharmacy, checked the properties, and put some into his mouth to taste the taste. Sun Yufeng's prescription had twelve or three medicines. Xu Xiaole checked them carefully and remembered the pharmacological properties written on the medicine post. Before he knew it, it became dark.

Hu Meiniang came in with a lamp and gently placed it next to Xu Xiaole. She served Xu Jinshi in her early years, and these routines were very skillful and did not alarm Xu Xiaole at all.

Xu Xiaole turned his head and said thanking him, rubbing his eyes, without any thoughts. Several medicine books and notes from his predecessors had been spread out in front of him, and he carefully thought about the prescriptions prescribed by Sun Yufeng.

This is actually the intention of the apprentice copying prescriptions in the old rules. Only by copying it yourself, keeping it in mind, and then using your spare time to ask others for advice and flipping books can you gain something. The masters also use this method to observe the apprentice's nature. If you do not have this awareness, no one will teach him until you are old.

Xu Xiaole didn't know this truth, but his inner longing for studying medicine made him find this path directly without anyone giving any tips.

Hu Meiniang came to deliver supper and midnight snacks. Seeing that Xu Xiaole was still studying hard, she stood behind him and coughed lightly. She originally expected Xu Xiaole to turn her head and ask her what she was doing, so she could remind him to go to bed and read it tomorrow. Unexpectedly, Xu Xiaole didn't look back and was still immersed in the book.

Hu Meiniang had no choice but to walk to the desk and approach Xu Xiaole, hoping that he would find his dissatisfaction.
