Mr. Xu found that his apprentice was making rapid progress.
For the same patient, she can prescribe several completely different prescriptions at once, including conservative treatment, surprise and bold dosage.
"It's really strange. How did this girl do it?"
All skilled Chinese medicine practitioners have their own characteristics when diagnosing and treating patients. People who are familiar with the medicine can often guess who wrote it just by looking at a prescription.
Some tended to treat conservatively, others were bold in dosage, but none were so...uncharacteristic.
It was because his apprentice prescribed so many medicines that they eventually became featureless.
Mr. Xu was very puzzled. He didn't have this kind of character. Couldn't he just teach a disciple by saying "master"? Why is his family's completely different?
This is unreasonable!
"Girl, what do you think of these prescriptions?"
Cheng Xi took the time to come over and asked, "Is something wrong?"
"No, use the right amount for each recipe, no more or less."
"Then what are you asking?"
Cheng Xi really didn't understand what Mr. Xu meant. In her opinion, a patient is equivalent to a math problem. It's not surprising that there are several completely different solutions. To her, it's just a matter of writing more. It's just a difference.
Mathematics papers often leave a lot of blank space - in short, she is used to it.
Mr. Xu sighed, "If you meet a patient, do you still want to give him several prescriptions?"
What if someone saves the money and takes all the medicines on the prescription, but feels that the first medicine is too mild and changes medicines midway? Isn’t this because you live too long?
Most importantly, smash his sign!
Cheng Xi said "Oh" in sudden realization, "Of course not, aren't you testing me now? I have written down all the prescriptions I can think of. If I really meet a patient, I will give a prescription based on their different characteristics." The one who planted the recipe.”
"What kind of method?"
"Poor people use methods that cost less and take less time. Rich people use gentle methods. It doesn't matter whether they have money or not. People who are in poor health all year round use gentle treatments, and those who are strong use harsh drugs."
"That's pretty much it."
"Also, it depends on the patient's personality..."
"character?"
"Yes, if the patient is very opinionated, you should ask for his own opinion. If the patient is mild-tempered, give him some reasonable suggestions."
"At such a young age, you already know how to choose food based on people's looks?"
"What's so hard about this?"
"..." What's so difficult? Of course it's difficult.
Mr. Xu choked and stared at her angrily.
I remember that when he was just starting out, he was ignorant and suffered a lot before he learned to read people's emotions. Since then, his reputation has gradually spread. However, he was already in his thirties at that time, but how old was the little girl in front of him?
At the age of 18, less than twenty years old, he already knows how to read people's faces.
Mr. Xu did not doubt the authenticity of Cheng Xi's words. After spending so many days together, he naturally understood his apprentice's temperament. She could really do it!
Alas, today’s young people are incredible.
However, the old man really didn't like her look of being in control, so he asked interesting questions:
"What if we meet someone like Shen Zhang?"
"Then add coptis."
"..."
The old man twitched the corner of his mouth, and after thinking for a while, he felt that her apprentice was right.
In early June, the weather was getting hotter day by day.
After Shen Manyun demolished several wooden houses and rebuilt them, Shen Xingluo also invited his husband back.
He was a man with a somewhat pale complexion, about thirty years old, with plain facial features, simple and clean clothes, clear eyes, and a bookish air about him, but he would not make people think that he was a student who was obsessed with studying.
Where did such people come from?
Chen Xingluo noticed her surprise and stood beside her to explain:
"Brother Xue is a student from the same batch as me at Huaishan Academy. Last autumn, Wei won the first prize, two places behind Qin Zheng."
"He is also a real top student!"
There are still two and a half months left until the full exam is completed after the fall. Excluding the time spent on the road, there are only two months left. It is impossible to teach children who can pass the admission exam in such a short time.
Cheng Xi raised his head and looked at Xue Xiuwen thoughtfully, "He... doesn't plan to continue taking the exam?"
After much guessing, this is the only explanation that makes sense.
Chen Xingluo nodded, "Brother Xue is in poor health and was originally unable to enter the officialdom. However, Mr. Du has recommended him to be the wife of Huaishan Academy. The family's life will be worry-free in the future."
"It doesn't look like an acquired disease. Is he born with a deficiency?"
"right."
It's a pity.
Lin'an Prefecture's fifth place in the autumn examination. If the extra examination is normal or extremely long, there is a high chance that he can enter the palace examination. Even if he cannot enter the top three, he will not be able to escape.
"Does the imperial court have such high requirements for being an official?"
Appearance and physical condition are indeed important. It is understandable that she cannot participate if she is disabled, but it is also not possible if she is born with a congenital deficiency? Are you afraid that you will accidentally faint when you go to court or attend an event in the future?
"Actually, Brother Xue can take the exam, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to participate in last year's Qiu Wei. It's just that he needs to take good care of his illness and is not suitable for working hard."
Xue Xiuwen is an upright person. He is an official to make decisions for the people. Normal people can't stand worrying about it, let alone him.
When he thought about it, Cheng Xi understood.
"Mr. Du is simply a god. He not only teaches students, but also finds jobs for you. Where can you find such a teacher?"
Proper package distribution!
Chen Xingluo laughed, "Sir, he... is indeed admirable."
"Why don't you invite Mr. Xue to your home and I ask Master to take his pulse?"
"Then there is Mrs. Law."
"..."
Cheng Xi glared at him when he heard the title, snorted and turned around and walked away.
Chen Xingluo stood stunned, with a bit of confusion in his dark eyes.
"He doesn't need a prescription for his body."
Mr. Xu took his pulse for a while and came to the conclusion, "It's a combination of medicine and poison. His body can't withstand repeated abuse, and he's not sick either."
It's just that various parts of the body are not in good shape, and the badness is very well-proportioned.
In short, what medicine should you take if you are not sick?
Xue Xiuwen's expression was very dull, and he smiled slightly on his pale face, "Thank you, the miracle doctor. Thank you very much. Brother Shen, Mrs. Shen, thank you both as well."
"Brother Xue, you and I have been classmates for many years, so there is no need to be polite."
Mr. Xu snorted when he saw the two of them talking in an official tone, "What are you doing like this? I haven't finished speaking yet."
Cheng Xi was speechless, "Master, why do you still breathe heavily when you speak?"
"You are just too impatient. What can young people do if they don't have any patience?"
"..." OK, OK, you're right.
Cheng Xi smiled decently, "Can you please tell me?"
"Give him some of your medicated fruit wine, just one cup a day."
ha?
Cheng Xi was stunned, Shen Xingluo stared at Mr. Xu for a moment with his black eyes, and said hello.
