Er Shuanzi felt that the reason why this medical book could not be passed down must be because no one understood what was written on it.
These symptoms were recorded by Xiangzhu's sister, which is a family heirloom.
Er Shuanzi felt that it was necessary to make a copy so that future generations would not guess what was written on it like a riddle.
Although Er Shuanzi has not been studying for a long time, his writing is not very good, but it can still let people know what the words are.
Er Shuanzi wanted to copy, and Nanzhi generously allowed him to copy. Anyway, these things were left to the apprentice.
There are three girls in the second and third bedrooms. One of them likes to do needlework, and the other may not be enlightened and can't carry things back. They are very stupid. Only Shen Wenjing wants to study medicine.
Nanzhi wondered if he should accept another apprentice.
Er Shuanzi breathed a sigh of relief and began to write books. Looking at one case after another, Er Shuanzi discovered that Sister Xiangzhu had treated many people.
But Sister Xiangzhu didn't earn much money, so she ate everything or went to the city to buy medicine.
Er Shuanzi felt a little regretful, thinking that with Sister Xiangzhu's skills, she could become a court official in the city.
Er Shuanzi mentioned it to Nanzhi, but Nanzhi said nonchalantly: "I won't go to the city. I like the village. People in the city don't believe me."
Er Shuanzi said "Oh" and said nothing more. His hands were numb from copying books. Nanzhi recorded several cases every day. He no longer recorded the ones he had recorded, but he also accumulated a thick stack.
Nanzhi said to Er Shuanzi, whose wrist was trembling: "If you can't finish writing in one day, just write for a few days. Don't be anxious."
Nanzhi leaned over and took a look, sighing: "Shuanzi, you need to practice your handwriting, it's a bit ugly."
Er Shuanzi was shocked and turned his head to look at Nanzhi, his pupils trembling. Your handwriting is so ugly, but you still think my handwriting is not good-looking.
Whose handwriting is more ugly?
Suddenly I don’t want to copy it anymore. I might as well wait until I have mastered my calligraphy before copying it. After all, I want to show it to future generations.
If not future generations, then others.
Er Shuanzi screamed and ran away crying. Even though he was a boy, he couldn't bear it.
Nanzhi:? ? ? ?
Me, I shouldn't be so direct.
Be more tactful next time.
Nanzhi looked at what Shuanzi had written, and then looked at what he had written. Tsk, with comparison, he could tell the pros and cons at once, ah, my handwriting is even uglier than Shuanzi's.
Medical books are meant for apprentices to read. You cannot show such ugly words to apprentices. As a master, you need to lose face.
In order to practice calligraphy well, Nanzhi also bought better ink and paper and wrote stroke by stroke, but the problem was that he didn't have a hard pen to write with.
If you don't pay attention, it will just be a ball of black ink, and you can't even see the arms and legs of the characters.
Writing is so difficult, really!
Seeing Shuanzi, Nanzhi said: "Shuanzi, your handwriting is not as ugly as mine, my handwriting is even uglier."
Er Shuanzi:......
Suddenly I felt embarrassed, he had cried before.
He waved his hand and said, "No, no, my calligraphy is not good either. I also want to practice calligraphy."
Shen Jiawen participated in the imperial examination that is held every three years. Now it is the examination for candidates. As long as the examiner passes the examination, he is qualified to be an official.
There is an ambition to be a Jinshi, take the imperial examination, and appear in front of the emperor.
The exam location this time is a bit far away, and the family is really worried and wants to send someone to take care of Shen Jiawen.
Shen Jiawen said: "Just find me a book boy. Let the book boy do anything."
The Shen family still disagrees. Even if there is a book boy, will the family worry about it?
Nanzhi raised his hand, "I'll go, I'll go..."
Everyone took one look at her and immediately changed their eyes, not even thinking about Nanzhi.
Nanzhi hasn’t been to a big city yet. I want to go. I want to go.
This time Shen Jiawen went to take the exam, which was equivalent to going to the provincial capital.
Students from a province gathered together to fight.
Next time it’s time to go to Kyoto, where students from all over the country are fighting.
The imperial examination is like thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge.
The final candidate was Shen Jiawen's father, Mr. Shen. Shen Dashan was old and the head of the family, so he couldn't go.
The second and third sons have to look after the family's fields.
There is only one candidate, Boss Shen.
Nanzhi raised her hand, "Take me, take me, I want to go."
Grandma Shen said: "Xiangzhu, Jiawen is not here to play, but to..."
"Snapped……"
Nanzhi broke the wooden stick in his hand, and the pieces flew far away.
Grandma Shen choked, and the Shen family was shocked.
Nanzhi played a few tricks, "I can protect Brother Wen."
Grandma Shen said: "Whatever the expenses are in the provincial capital, one more person means more expenses."
Nanzhi took out a few pieces of silver from his pocket, "I have money, I saved it."
More and more people were seeing doctors, and Nanzhi finally saved some money.
Shen family:......
So envious.
Seeing that they were silent, Nanzhi took out the medicine bag again and said, "These are poisons, and they can be poisoned if something happens."
Shen family:......
It’s so outrageous!
Shen Jiawen looked at Nanzhi: "Okay, you can follow."
Nanzhi immediately smiled and said: "Thank you, Brother Wen, I'll go pack my things."
With the addition of one more person, the Shen family didn't say anything and fell into a parting atmosphere. Only Nanzhi was as excited as Erha when he was let out.
The Shen family suddenly felt uneasy and told Shen Jiawen: "Take a good look at the fragrant beads."
After saying that, something felt wrong. Shen Jiawen was going to take the exam. How could he worry about other things? What if he didn't do well in the exam.
Sister-in-law Shen immediately shouted: "Xiangzhu, come back quickly."
Nanzhi ran faster, and soon no one could be seen.
Sister-in-law Shen couldn't help but said: "You are not sensible at all."
Shen Jiawen said: "Mom, I'm leaving."
Nanzhi was waiting for Mr. Shen and his son at the entrance of the village. Mr. Shen coughed and said, "You don't need to be at home outside. You must be careful."
Nanzhi nodded, "Okay dad."
The trip to the provincial capital was by water, and all the other candidates brought a family member with them. Even those who had no family members also brought a book boy and a housekeeper.
The butler can take care of everything, and everyone makes an appointment to set off together.
Boss Shen looked at these young masters from wealthy families and felt a little guilty and didn't know how to interact with them.
Shen Jiawen greeted them, and the people on the boat looked at Nanzhi curiously. Those who were close to him looked a little curious and said to Shen Jiawen: "You have a woman with you when you go out. Brother Shen is really busy."
Shen Jiawen immediately waved the hand on his shoulder, "Don't talk nonsense, that's my sister."
The young master who spoke immediately confessed and asked, "Why did you bring your sister with you?"
I have never seen anyone taking a scientific examination with his sister.
A bit outrageous.
Shen Jiawen just shook his head without explaining.
Because she was a woman, Nanzhi lived in a cabin alone and spent her own money.
The food on the ship was expensive. Even if Nanzhi didn't treat him badly, he was reluctant to buy it and took out snacks from his bag to eat.
"Wow, yuck..."
As soon as Nanzhi stuffed the snacks into his mouth, he saw a man lying on the edge of the boat, vomiting. And because it was a favorable wind, the sour smell hit his face.
