Chapter 743: Chapter 743: Do You Want to Take Her as Your Apprentice? Chapter 743: Chapter 743: Do You Want to Take Her as Your Apprentice? Zhao Xi beca more and more convinced of the plan as he spoke. “Sanya is still young and intelligent. If she can morize the basic dical Scriptures and dical texts now, in a few years, she will be able to start treating people directly.”
“With teaching her by her side, I guarantee her dical skills will be much stronger than those unreliable doctors. Whether it’s external injuries, fevers, or even if soone is slashed open, has their belly cut, poisoned, or is vomiting blood, I can cure them all. If she does learn and masters the skills, who knows, she might even be noticed by the court and get into the Imperial Hospital as a female doctor. She could treat the concubines in the palace, receive rewards from the emperor, and leap over the dragon’s gate, right?”
“Stop, stop, stop.” Shu Yu quickly put out her hand to interrupt him. “You’re getting more and more ridiculous.”
And entering the palace? Is that a place one can just waltz into? It’s like a dragon’s lair and a tiger’s den. One mishap, and you end up as a scapegoat or cannon fodder. Just knowing a little secret about the palace can get you silenced. Does she think Sanya’s life is too long?
Caught up in his own enthusiasm, Zhao Xi had said too much and couldn’t stop himself.
He then realized this and quickly added, “What I an is, there are many benefits for Sanya in learning dicine.”
Of course, Shu Yu agreed with the idea of Sanya studying dicine. Having a skill ant that one would have nothing to fear no matter where they went.
She said to the old lady, “If Sanya truly has a talent in this area, it might be worth a try. As for entering the palace, that’s too risky; let’s not even talk about that. But in Dongan Province, there are two major dical clinics with female doctors stationed there, specifically treating ladies and young misses who are uncomfortable being examined by male doctors. I don’t know how much they pay in wages, but at least it’s a stable job.”
Zhao Xi nodded repeatedly, “Exactly, exactly.”
The old lady then asked him, “So, are you willing to take our Sanya as your apprentice?”
Apprentice??
Zhao Xi was montarily taken aback and subconsciously a bit reluctant. Although Sanya was much younger than him, taking her as his apprentice would be appropriate.
But the issue of seniority always felt a bit strange.
Zhao Xi forced a laugh and said, “The matter of apprenticeship shouldn’t be rushed. If I were to take an apprentice, I would definitely have to ask my master first, otherwise, he would break my leg. How about this, I will write to my master to ask his opinion. However, in the anti, I can start teaching Sanya dicine.”
The old lady thought it over and agreed, “You make a good point. dical skill is indeed passed down with tradition, and taking an apprentice is an important decision that should definitely be discussed with your master first. I am just worried that you only pass down your dical knowledge within your male lineage and not to females.”
Zhao Xi imdiately sat up straight and took on a serious deanour, “Grandmother, rest assured, our school does not have such a rule. My great-great-grandmother was a female doctor with high dical expertise. Our school only looks at a person’s intuition and character when taking apprentices, not their gender or age. Besides, my master is very easy to talk to. If he knew about Sanya’s talent, he might even personally take her as an apprentice.”
Hm? If that were the case, having Sanya as his little apprentice sister wouldn’t be too bad.
Shu Yu suddenly glanced at him with a weird expression.
Zhao Xi’s scalp tingled for no apparent reason. “What? Is there a problem?”
“No, but deciding to take up dicine isn’t sothing we can just agree upon ourselves. After all, it’s Sanya’s life. We should explain it to her clearly and let her make her own decision.”
The old lady then went to the kitchen and called towards the living room, “Sanya, Sanya, co here.”
The little girl ca running out, “Grandmother, what’s wrong?”
Following her was Dahu. The two kids stood side by side in the kitchen, giving the gathered adults bewildered looks.
