"Nonsense!"
In the Taiyuan Hospital, Xu Zhian, with long beard and hair, glared at Gu Dan with a stern and angry voice.
"Uncle Xu, this is definitely not a whim..."
"Oh, you demolished the old house at home and opened a martial arts gym and medicine shop. Is this your plan? Don't you even look at how much weight you have now! There are countless martial arts gyms in the imperial city. What can you do? At such a young age, he is a ninth-grade medical doctor, yet he doesn’t stay in the Imperial Hospital and actually wants to open his own medicine shop?!"
Xu Zhian was furious and wanted to roll up his sleeves and beat Gu Dan.
He and Gu Dan's father were close friends during his lifetime, and the relationship among the family members was quite good for several generations.
After Gu Dan's biological father was killed by thieves in the prison, he personally brought Gu Dan to the Imperial Hospital.
Even when the imperial physician ordered Pang Qi to share a gift to the imperial doctors, he specially secured a share for Gu Dan.
It can be said that Xu Zhian has completely regarded Gu Dan as his junior to support him.
It's just that Gu Dan did such a thing, and even pushed back on something as big as his old house, and he didn't even say a word to him!
Gu Dan didn't understand where Xu Zhian's anger came from, but Xu Zhian would not agree if he had been told about this in advance.
What he wanted and what Xu Zhian wanted were not the same thing at all.
For him, glory and wealth are fleeting, and fame and wealth are tasteless.
But for people who are born with a lot of money, these things are what a man should pursue.
What Qing Pingzi said, "If the Tao is different, we will not conspire against each other" is exactly what he meant.
It's just that he has a long heart, and Xu Zhian treats him as a younger brother. Naturally, he can't pretend to be ignorant and indifferent.
"Uncle Xu doesn't know. Now that there are floods in Yuzhou, the admiral has to double the tax collection. How many people will have their families destroyed? There are even thieves, the White Lotus Sect, who take the opportunity to cause chaos. The people of Yuzhou are living in poverty and are in chaos. The Imperial Hospital is now in chaos. Frequent actions and clever ways to gain favor are not necessarily the way to become rich and powerful.
A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, interacts with the powerful, and seeks fame and fortune, which is really not what I want. My father's situation still floats in my mind to this day, making me toss and turn and restless. After swallowing the elixir given by the emperor, I was in coma for four days before I woke up. During this time, I narrowly escaped death several times. The feeling is beyond words.
Today, I have figured out that life is more important than knowledge. No matter how good the future or wealth is, it is not as good as living a stable life. "Gu Dan said in a deep voice.
"You...you!"
Seeing Gu Dan move out his biological father who died in the Heavenly Prison, and having personal experience with it, the anger on Xu Zhian's face couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
This generation of the Gu family is also unlucky. Even Gu Dan, the only one alive, barely survived after swallowing the pill.
It's no wonder that Gu Dan is so cautious, even if he doesn't have the luxury of a hospital, he has to move out.
Although he couldn't empathize with this, he watched these things happen, and even was in the midst of them, unable to do anything.
"Forget it. Since you don't have such intention, I don't need to say anything more."
Xu Zhian shook his head in dismay.
In his opinion, although Gu Dan suffered a disaster, he was known to Emperor Zongming in advance.
Although Emperor Zongming has forgotten about Gu Dan now, he can continue to practice medical skills, wait until he is older to become an imperial doctor, and talk to Emperor Zongming again. With this fate, he may soar to the sky.
It's just that people have their own ambitions, and Gu Dan has no such idea, so he naturally no longer cares about it.
"Thank you Uncle Xu for your concern. Everyone has their own ambitions. I just want peace." Gu Dan had a good impression of Xu Zhian, and Xu Zhian also took good care of him. He explained things clearly, which was good for both of them.
"Since you don't care about fame, I won't persuade you. But now, you are sixteen years old, right? Do you have a woman you like?" Xu Zhian stared at Gu Dan and asked suddenly.
"ah?"
Gu Dan was stunned.
No, this can also be used to urge marriage?
"You are the only one left in the Gu family, and you are not willing to further your studies in the Taiyuan Hospital. If you don't pass on the incense quickly, when are you going to wait? Someone has to inherit the family business your father left you, right? It would be good to have more children. Continue the incense.”
Xu Zhian added: "Now that the emperor has practiced Taoism for ten years, I heard that he is ready to let the alchemists from Qingfengguan set up an altar to pray for the blessings of the Taoist Immortal Sect. By then, all civil and military officials can watch it. You are also a ninth-grade doctor, so why not Let's go and have a look together? If any official takes a fancy to you, you can also find a good match."
To be fair, Gu Dan's appearance is quite good, otherwise Emperor Zongming would not have been so bright-eyed when he visited the Millennium Pine when it was blooming for a hundred years, and even specially rewarded him with a pill.
With this appearance, even if he has no intention of becoming famous, being the daughter of an official would still bring many benefits!
"The boy is not interested in this matter for the time being."
Gu Dan's mouth twitched slightly, he never expected that he would have to pass this level.
"You kid! Since you don't want to enter the officialdom to make plans and want to find peace and prosperity, how can you not marry a wife and have children as soon as possible? Sixteen is not young anymore. Your father can't control you. I should take care of you."
Xu Zhian thought for a while, "If you still don't want to get involved with those officials, what do you think of Xiaoyi?"
"Xiaoyi?"
Gu Dan's eyes widened involuntarily. If I remember correctly, Xiaoyi seems to be only fourteen years old, right? !
"You also know Xiaoyi's father, the doctor Lin. You and your father were also good friends at the time, and the family couldn't be more innocent. What's more, Xiaoyi also knows medical skills, and you have known her for a long time. It feels like how?"
Xu Zhian stroked his beard and said, "Xiao Yi is not bad in appearance and knows the basics. If you are interested, I can help you go to Dr. Lin to talk about it and see how they react first."
Lin Xiaoyi is only fourteen years old, and her appearance is indeed pretty and pleasant.
But as far as Gu worried, she was still just a little girl!
He has never had such perverted thoughts.
What's more, as long as he keeps treating illnesses and saving people, his lifespan will be endless.
The so-called marrying a wife and having children simply adds constraints to oneself. If you see your beloved grow old again in endless time, with a beautiful face and gray hair, I am afraid that your Taoist heart will be damaged.
"No, no! I suddenly remembered that I had something else to do, so I left first!"
Gu Dan quickly waved his hand and refused, not even daring to stay for a moment, and ran away.
"This bastard boy has no idea what he is doing!"
Watching Gu Dan go away, Xu Zhian cursed angrily.
There is only a single seedling left in the old friend's family. Since he wants to stay away from the land of right and wrong, how can he do it if he doesn't seize the time to start a family?
How can the girls outside compare to the knowledgeable people in Taiyi Hospital?
What's more, Dr. Lin's medical skills are also very good. Xiaoyi is no worse than Gu Dan in terms of life experience and appearance. If this can be done, it will be a good talk in Taiyuan Hospital.
Not long after his old friend passed away, Gu Dan dared to demolish his old house. Xu Zhian couldn't rest assured if he didn't find someone to watch over him.
My old friend, Izumi Izumi, might have to scold him for being careless!
After thinking about it, Xu Zhian decided to go talk to Dr. Lin first.
