People's bottom line is constantly lowering. Chen Jingke once again personally interpreted this sentence. When Yuzhu slipped into his bed, the rest of the things fell into place.
Paper cannot cover the fire, and what happened between him and the two maids was soon known to Sun Simiao, Wu Shu and others.
Sun Simiao sternly warned: "For the sake of your health, if you can't do it once every half month, I will send them both away."
Chen Jingke knew that he was serious and did not dare to disobey, so he quickly said: "Yes, don't worry, I won't make fun of my body."
"Huh." Although Sun Simiao was still a little angry, he didn't hold on to it. Let's see how he behaves in the future.
"How many apprentices have been recruited?"
Knowing that this hurdle was over, Chen Jingke breathed a sigh of relief and replied: "Forty-six people, twenty-seven of them have family backgrounds, and the rest are farmers who are interested in medical skills."
"But they are all literate, and the temple will also provide cultural classes to teach them how to read. They should learn medical skills very quickly."
Sun Simiao nodded and said, "Then inform them that classes will start after the Lantern Festival."
Chen Jingke said: "Yes, I will inform them right away."
…
Sun Simiao passed this test, as well as the test between Yang and Wu Shu. Chen Jingke was very uneasy. However, if he extended his head and retracted his head, it was also a knife. He gritted his teeth and went to the small courtyard where Wu Shu lived.
However, to his surprise, Yang acted as if nothing had happened and was the same as before.
This made him even more uneasy. He couldn't be just pretending, right? The calm before the storm?
After staying there nervously for a while, he couldn't bear it anymore and resigned. Yang asked Wu Shu to see him off.
When they walked away, Yang said with a smile: "It seems that Jing Ke really likes your sister, so I feel relieved."
Wu Chang said: "How did you see it?"
Yang explained: "Look at the way he was fidgeting just now. He obviously felt guilty and felt sorry for your sister."
"It's normal for him to sleep with two maids in his capacity. It's totally unnecessary. Back then, you, Aye, had many concubines around you."
Wu Chang said doubtfully: "Ah, but I remember that there are only two concubines around my father, right?"
Thinking of her husband, Yang felt a little sad and said: "The other concubines were all given away, but the two he liked are the ones left."
"Your father has never felt guilty about this, nor has he felt sorry for me. No one from a wealthy family is like this. Everyone is used to it. Compared with them, Jing Ke seems to be an alien."
Wu Chang said enviously: "But my daughter's family all hopes to find such a husband."
…
The two of them slowly came to the door, and Wu Shu asked abruptly: "Don't you have anything to say to me?"
Chen Jingke trembled all over, and thought something came to his mind. He said with a bitter face: "Sister Wu, I'm sorry, I..."
Wu Shu said expressionlessly: "How are you?"
Chen Jingke lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry for you."
"Pfft..." Wu Shu finally couldn't help laughing.
Chen Jingke raised his head and looked at her in confusion.
After laughing for a while, Wu Shu stopped smiling, took the initiative to hold his hand and said, "Do you think I will be angry?"
Chen Jingke was even more confused and said, "Aren't you angry?"
Wu Shu shook his head and said, "I feel really uncomfortable, but I'm not angry."
"It is common for a man to have three wives and four concubines, and these two were sent by the empress to serve you on behalf of the princess. I had known that such a day would come, and I would have been angry to death if I had been angry."
"Uh..." Chen Jingke didn't know what to say.
A smile appeared on Wu Shu's face and he said: "But you care so much about my thoughts and apologize to me, I suddenly feel less uncomfortable."
Chen Jingke held her hand with his backhand and said excitedly: "Sister Wu, I swear I will never mess around with women in the future."
Thank you to the evil old society.
Wu Shu was moved in his heart and said jokingly: "You dare, let's see if the empress is willing."
Chen Jingke: "..."
He knew very well that it would be foolish to continue discussing this matter at this time, so he quickly changed the subject and said: "Master said that medical classes will start after the Lantern Festival, so we must prepare in advance."
Wu Shu knew that he intended to change the topic, so he followed his words and said: "Then we have to prepare carefully, but have the medical textbooks been confirmed?"
Chen Jingke said: "It has been compiled. Master is doing the final corrections. It will be printed after the annual vacation."
Wu Shu nodded and said: "There are only a few dozen sets, and it is easy to print."
Chen Jingke said: "It's not just dozens of sets. Now that we've printed them, we'll print a few more. Not only for students in the medical class, but they can also be sold to the outside world."
Wu Shu smiled and said: "You are finally going to make money by selling books. It's not easy."
Chen Jingke also smiled and said: "There is no way, who asked the housekeeper to be strict? I have to do this in order to make her happy."
Wu Shu rolled his eyes at him and said bitterly: "I will take care of you. If you dare to do money-losing business in the future, I will ask the master to expel you from the school."
…
On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Chen Jingke went to Changsun Wuji's house again, Xiao Sizi's biological uncle. He couldn't do it without going.
Changsun Wuji paid great attention to him and received him personally, and Changsun Chong also accompanied him.
During this period, the three of them chatted a lot, but they kept their balance well and did not discuss any sensitive topics.
Changsun Wuji's kindness brought the relationship between the two parties closer, but Chen Jingke knew very well that he must not take this old fox lightly.
Now that the interests of both parties are aligned, and he is in good health as a member of the royal family, the old fox can be so friendly.
Once there is an irreconcilable conflict between the two parties, he will never be merciful when he takes action.
It's not that Changsun Wuji is bad, but that he acts more purposefully and will not be easily swayed by emotions.
After having lunch and resting for a while, Chen Jingke said goodbye and left. Before leaving, he made an appointment to go to Gao Shilian's house to pay New Year's greetings tomorrow.
Gao Shilian naturally received them warmly, but there seemed to be sadness in his brows during the dinner. He didn't say anything and it was difficult for everyone to inquire casually.
After Xiu Mu, the officials resumed their normal work, and Chen Jingke realized what was going on. It was related to the clan history.
But this is a matter for later, so I won’t mention it for now.
In the next few days, Chen Jingke visited Lu Cai, Li Chunfeng and others to consolidate his connections.
On the eighth day of the lunar month, Sun Simiao finalized the final version of the textbook. It was more of a medical treatise than a medical textbook.
This book introduces the concepts of bacteria, viruses, trace elements, etc. in detail. It also draws an anatomy diagram of the human body and points out the location and function of each organ.
At the same time, medicine was officially divided into internal medicine, surgery, andrology, gynecology, pediatrics... orthopedics, etc.
It also combines the medical theory of Yin Yang and Five Elements.
Sun Simiao used decades of medical practice experience to integrate the two. He not only summarized and organized the previous ancient Chinese medicine, but also popularized new medical concepts.
At the same time, it also wrote a large number of cases of common diseases and conventional prescriptions for treatment, which is somewhat similar to the Tang Dynasty version of "The Barefoot Doctor's Manual".
A wandering doctor who knows a little bit about medical skills will be able to become a "miraculous doctor" after reading this book through.
Chen Jingke immediately took it to the printing house for printing, saying: "Printing 10,000 copies first, this thing is related to human lives, there must be no mistakes."
Tian Dachun patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, real person. If you make a mistake in a word, you'll want my head."
