Heavenly Blessed Baby: Fleeing Famine, Busy to Prosper!-Chapter 64: Taking on a Disciple

After leaving Qin Minglang’s place, Yin Cheng headed straight towards the Qi Family.

On the way, people greeted him, but he ignored them, his expression growing increasingly sour.

Seriously, it’s just an apprentice. If it weren’t for his kind heart, unwilling to separate the attendant from his family, he would also have an apprentice by his side serving him, right?

Someone like Sanqi, I really don’t understand which eye Qin Minglang used to choose such a person as his closed-door disciple.

The more Yin Cheng thought about it, the angrier he became. When he was approaching the Qi Family, he could hear Yi Meng explaining to a few kids about the importance of maintaining hygiene whenever conditions allowed.

Yi Meng also said that if you don’t maintain hygiene, you’ll get sick, and various things would happen.

All in all, Yi Meng said a lot. Not only were the kids at home listening intently, but the adults were also paying close attention.

At first, when Yi Meng married into the Qi Family, her many demands made it hard for the family to adjust for quite some time.

But as everyone gradually got used to Yi Meng’s requests, it didn’t seem like a big deal anymore.

No one could deny that taking a warm bath at dusk might not seem refreshing, but after the bath, the comfort exceeded that of a cold bath.

Washing hands and feet before bed meant you wouldn’t smell any odors while sleeping, and the women at home found doing laundry and washing sheets much easier.

And like not drinking raw water, the house always had cool boiled water available.

Though the taste wasn’t much different from well water, and perhaps not as refreshing, no one could deny that the family, both adults and children, had seen a significant reduction in diarrhea cases over the years.

In comparison, it seemed like these incidents happened regularly in every household around the village.

Once or twice might be a coincidence, but when it happened frequently over time, everyone naturally realized the benefits brought by the "extravagant practices" of the fourth son’s wife.

Nowadays, even when staying overnight in the wilderness, affecting their quality of life, there are still things that must be adhered to.

Like washing hands before meals and after using the bathroom, not drinking raw water, and so on.

Yin Cheng stood just three or four meters away from the Qi Family, holding some ginseng, completely absorbed in the conversation.

Obviously, there was no mention of their professional medical knowledge, not even a reference to any medicinal herbs, yet the underlying theme was all about medicine.

People who practice medicine heal illnesses if there are any, and take care of health if there aren’t.

But the principle of the Qi Family’s fourth daughter-in-law was to avoid illness as much as possible without the use of medicine.

The logic was simple yet meticulously organized and strictly enforced as it had never been before.

Suddenly, Yin Cheng thought of Qin Minglang’s troublesome apprentice. With a flash of inspiration, he looked at Yi Meng with newfound interest.

"Well said!"

Yin Cheng loudly applauded, intending to clap his hands, but then remembered the ginseng he was holding and put his hands down again.

Everyone turned to look at Yin Cheng.

Qi Ercai was the first to react, getting up to help Yin Cheng, but was refused.

"No need, old man, I’m not so old that I can’t walk on my own."

As he spoke, Yin Cheng walked steadily over to Qi Zheng, smiling and said, "Old brother Qi, this is the ginseng Manbao discovered. It’s all been dug up now, better store it well for Manbao!"

"Huh?"

Qi Zheng already knew his granddaughter had discovered some ginseng, but the act of digging the ginseng had nothing to do with the Qi Family.

Initially puzzled by Yin Cheng’s statement, Qi Zheng said, "Doctor Yin, what are you talking about? This ginseng was dug up by you and Doctor Qin, why would you bring it to my family?"

"Oh, we were just helping out, getting our hands dirty, how could we take advantage of a small child?"

Seeing Qi Zheng wouldn’t accept it, Yin Cheng looked at Yi Meng and said, "Fourth daughter-in-law, you help your daughter take it."

"I..."

Yi Meng was also troubled.

Ginseng is valuable, but it wasn’t something they dug up, so it didn’t feel right to accept it.

However, the more the Qi Family acted this way, the more Yin Cheng admired their upright family values.

In this environment, those who grow up here certainly won’t turn out bad.

With a sudden impulse, Yin Cheng blurted out, "Fourth daughter-in-law, would you like to be my apprentice?"

"What?"

"What’s that?"

The entire Qi Family was in shock, the surprise far greater than that brought by the ginseng.

Especially Yi Meng, whose mind buzzed as if she had heard the world’s funniest joke.

Her?

Yi Meng?

Learning medicine?

What a ridiculous notion!

Having lived two lives, Yi Meng knew her learning ability wasn’t great.

If she were a little smarter, she wouldn’t be just muddling around years after crossing over.

In her previous life, Yi Meng had heard many tales about the difficulties of studying medicine.

The ones who wake up early are medical students and garbage collectors.

The ones who stay up late are medical students and massage therapists.

The ones who can’t eat on time are medical students and beggars.

The ones working hard over weekends are medical students and street vendors.

The ones whose steps mustn’t be wrong are medical students and TV hosts.

The ones difficult to leave after joining are medical students and blacklisted organizations.

Those who can’t hit back after being hit are medical students and prisoners.

Not that studying medicine is bad, but for a mother of three, it truly felt... too late.

"Ahem!"

Yi Meng coughed lightly and said, "Doctor Yin, let’s not joke about this. I’m just a woman, and a mother of three. Where would I find the time to study medicine?"

This was Yi Meng speaking from the heart, and she genuinely didn’t want to learn medicine.

Even though being a doctor was respected in this era, the consequences of mistakes were also grave.

She only wanted a peaceful life and didn’t wish to be a benevolent savior.

Yin Cheng regretted his impulsive offer as soon as he spoke.

Finding someone with insight was one thing, but learning medicine was another thing entirely. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

At over twenty years old, starting to learn medicine was indeed late.

But Yin Cheng didn’t want to give up easily, not without at least trying a little.

Otherwise, it would seem like he’d lost face.

So, Yin Cheng scanned the area and spotted Qi Manman groggily sitting up on the cart.

"I misspoke just now. I meant to ask if you would let Manbao learn medicine from me?"

Without changing expression, Yin Cheng switched his apprentice target.

And the Qi Family was even more astonished.

"What, what? Letting Manbao study medicine?"

The first to react was Mrs. Qi.

She waved her hands and shook her head, "No, no, studying medicine is too hard! You have to go up the mountains to gather herbs, how could our Manbao handle such hardship?"
