Tuzi quickly looked towards Mu Yingbao. The key was to see what the lady said.

"Since he has come here on his own initiative, there's nothing wrong in meeting him." Mu Yingbao whispered to someone beside him.

Men all have to save face! He was against seeing the traveling doctor. If she insisted on seeing him, she couldn't ignore his feelings and had to discuss it with him in a gentle voice.

Although Mu Yingbao's voice was very light, everyone in the tent still heard it.

No one dared to look up at their master. Tuzi lowered his head, and so did the others, but their ears were perked up to listen.

They already have the answer in their minds, they just want to verify it.

"Mockery." As expected, the master gave a concise response.

Haha, it's true! That's it!

The result was that there were no surprises at all, which made everyone feel bored. The master was too unprincipled in doting on his wife. It was almost enough for him to give in to his wife seven or eight times out of ten!

At least deny two or three times on things that are not very important to maintain your dignity.

Xue Wenyu had no idea of ​​the reactions of the other people in the tent, so he accompanied his wife to meet the traveling doctor in the next tent.

"I, He Yuancheng, greet the Duke and the Madam." He Yuancheng entered the tent, straightened his robes again, and bowed respectfully. The bow was so high that his head almost touched the ground.

Mu Yingbao waited for a while, but there was really no response from the person beside him, so he had to speak up himself; "No need to be polite, sit down and talk."

He Yuancheng was nervous all the way, but he didn't expect that his wife would be so friendly when she saw him like this, which made him more determined in his decision.

"Thank you, ma'am." After thanking her, he still didn't sit down, and didn't even look towards the chair.

It is Madam's business to treat me with courtesy, and what I did this time was indeed a bit abrupt.

So, how can I really just go over and sit there?

Seeing that he didn't sit down, Mu Yingbao didn't say anything else, but just looked at him, waiting for him to explain his purpose.

He Yuancheng straightened up and looked up, only to meet Xue Wenyu's serious face. He was startled and lowered his head reflexively.

He lowered his head and thought, no! I'm afraid that now I'm in front of the lady. Even if I explain my purpose today, it will anger the Duke. But I have to say it.

How do you know it won't work if you don't try?

You know, this was not a temporary decision he made when his wife left Yudong.

This is something he has been struggling with for many days. He had this idea when his wife went to persuade Liu Xiaosan's wife.

After several considerations, although I was unsure, I still followed without hesitation.

After taking a deep breath, He Yuancheng took the risk, lifted the corner of his robe and knelt down, clasping his fists but still not daring to look up; "Madam, I want to learn medicine from you."

Good? Want to study medicine?

After hearing this, Mu Yingbao and Xue Wenyu looked at each other and were quite surprised.

"You are already a doctor, what else do you need to learn?" Xue Wenyu spoke this time.

Hearing that it was the Duke who responded to him, He Yuancheng became even more nervous. "Yes, Duke, I am not even a doctor. My parents died when I was young, and the three small houses and a few acres of thin land in my family were all divided up and taken away by my uncles.

The younger one was never full and once he could not resist the temptation and stole a piece of dry food from his aunt's kitchen, for which he was beaten all over.

My uncles, aunts and uncles told others that I was ungrateful, had not learned my lesson, and had stolen money from home.

After beating the younger one, they punished him by making him kneel outside the gate.

The neighbors knew it wasn’t the case but they didn’t dare to do anything. The kid was injured and fainted. Fortunately, a quack doctor who happened to be passing by couldn’t bear to see the kid and kindly saved him.

After he left a few days later, the little one secretly followed him. After he found her, he took her in.

But he also told me clearly at that time that he didn't have any formal medical skills and could only treat minor ailments such as headaches and fevers.

The little one followed him around, collecting and selling herbs, and learning everything from him.

Three years ago, he accidentally fell off a cliff and died while trying to pick a Ganoderma lucidum on a cliff.

From then on, the little one was alone.

In the past three years, I have been wandering around, and the so-called medical skills I learned can only help me to make a living.

If it is a real epidemic, even if the patient's family trusts me and dares to let me diagnose and treat them, I would not dare to do so.

Because I know that we cannot fool people. Misdiagnosis can cost lives.

I have always wanted to learn medical skills so that I can cure diseases and save lives, but I have no way to find a master.

Until this time, I was fortunate to meet the lady in Yudong. I had heard that the lady was kind to people, had superb medical skills, and did not consider the patient's identity when seeing the patient. I really saw the lady in person and saw with my own eyes how she diagnosed and saved people.

I, the little one, had the idea of ​​becoming your apprentice and learning medical skills from you.

However, I also know that I am overestimating my own abilities and not knowing my own limits, but I still can't help but want to try.

So, so, I followed you all the way, please forgive me, madam."

Xue Wenyu frowned when he heard what He Yuancheng said. He actually tried to gain sympathy by playing the victim!

But for Mu Yingbao, she didn't think so.

Anyway, I have a good impression of this person.

"You want to learn medicine, there's nothing wrong with that. But I want to ask you, what will you do if I don't agree? Are you going to continue following me? Also, you'd better stand up and speak. You know too little about me. Don't you know that what I hate most is being made to kneel down on others?" Mu Yingbao asked.

She didn't say politely that her medical skills were not good enough and she was not qualified to be his master.

Because, currently in Yan Kingdom, there is no one whose medical skills are better than hers.

Hearing Mu Yingbao speak, He Yuancheng couldn't help but raised his head and stood up quickly. If the Madam doesn't like it, then he must not do it. "I've thought about it. If the Madam refuses, then I will go to the capital and find a way to find some work and a place to stay. Isn't it said that the Madam will often go out of the palace to provide free medical treatment? Then it's okay for me to go over and help with chores.

However, I followed my madam all the way here. If it weren’t for her people bringing me food, I would not have dared to come over to see her.

Moreover, I had actually prepared myself mentally for rejection, but I thought that if I didn't try hard enough, I would regret it for the rest of my life.

So, the little brazen one came over. "

Having said this, He Yuancheng lowered his head again.

At this moment, I lowered my head, not because I was afraid of the Duke's unfriendly eyes, nor because I was afraid to face my wife.

It is said that Madam would often go out of the palace to provide free medical treatment, so it would be nice for me to go over and help with the chores.

However, I followed my madam all the way here. If it weren’t for her people bringing me food, I would not have dared to come over to see her.

Moreover, I had actually prepared myself mentally for rejection, but I thought that if I didn't try hard enough, I would regret it for the rest of my life.

So, the little brazen one came over. "

Having said this, He Yuancheng lowered his head again.

He lowered his head at this moment, not because he was afraid of the Duke's unfriendly eyes, nor because he was afraid to face his wife and let her see his expectant eyes.

There is only one reason for him to bow his head, that is, he knows very well that this move will not work...
