Chapter 417: The Old Taoist Temple in the Tang Dynasty Xiao Kun Dao 25

After the apprentice left, Jiang Yue had some free time. She used this time to catch up on the studies she had missed during the Chinese New Year. A month later, the apprentice came back from the academy holiday. The first thing she did when she came back was to run to the kitchen. It seemed that the food Jiang Yue had prepared in advance was not wasted, because Jiang Yue was like this in her previous world. The first thing she wanted to do when she got home was to eat the food her parents cooked.

After eating half full, the apprentice began to share her college life with Jiang Yue, saying that she had to get up in the morning to do exercises and had no time for morning classes. She also said that the dean of their women's college was a foreigner and that astronomy was another class she liked. She also talked about the embarrassing things that so-and-so had done.

She also said that she worked part-time in the infirmary, and her classmates were very envious of her, after all, this part-time job paid high credits and was easy. She also said that she had saved money to invite Jiang Yue to dinner at the academy. She said a lot of things in bits and pieces, and after the meal, she asked Jiang Yue some questions she didn't understand in the medical books, and Jiang Yue patiently explained them to her thoroughly.

"Are there many courses in the academy? Is there still time for you to learn medical skills?"

"It's OK. I heard from the teacher that I have to do well in the main courses at the end of the semester, and I just need to pass the others. There are only three or four main courses, and I have plenty of time. I can even work part-time."

"Okay, then you just have to make the right choice. If it doesn't work out, just put your medical skills aside." Jiang Yue had just laughed at his apprentice for being exhausted, but a few days later he was worried that his apprentice couldn't handle it anymore.

"It's okay, Master. It's easy to handle."

The master and the apprentice had not seen each other for a month and had a lot to talk about. It was the first time for both of them to be separated from each other, and they were a little uncomfortable. After the problem of the medical superior was solved, the apprentice asked to learn cooking again: "Master, can I learn cooking now? I want to learn something. The food in the academy is really filling. Except for some dishes, the other dishes are not delicious at all."

"So even if you know how to cook, you can't cook for yourself, right?"

"...I forgot."

Jiang Yue rolled her eyes and said nothing. After packing up her things, she glanced at her and said, "Wait until you graduate before studying. Maybe you won't want to study by then."

"Of course I have to learn it. Even if the academy doesn't allow people to cook, I can still cook when I want to."

"Well, I'll teach you after you graduate. It's getting late, so go to bed early."

The next day after the holiday, the apprentice disappeared after breakfast. She and her sisters made an appointment to go out and play together. Jiang Yue felt bored at home alone, so she took care of the herb garden, fruit trees, and the grapes planted above the corridor. Many of the fruit trees had borne fruit only once last year, so she could eat the fruits she planted for the first time in several years.

After taking care of the fruit trees, he tidyed up the trees around the Taoist temple. If he left them to grow naturally, it would not look good. He also did a thorough cleaning of the Taoist temple. The Queen would probably come again in a month or two, so he, a Taoist priest who practiced seclusion, turned himself into a health doctor.

At lunchtime, the apprentice brought a few of her classmates over to eat, because the apprentice often said that Jiang Yue's cooking was delicious, but the other students didn't quite believe it. The apprentice told Jiang Yue her little plan, and Jiang Yue had no choice but to spoil her.

After lunch, several classmates didn't want to leave, and finally they stayed in the Taoist temple, planning to go to the college from here tomorrow, just to have an extra meal. Jiang Yue smiled helplessly, thinking that she would have kept back a little earlier.

The next day when they went to the academy, Jiang Yue did not see them off. Several people went together and some guards came to pick them up. After the disciples left, Jiang Yue cleaned up the Taoist temple. In July, the emperor brought the empress here again. In the past few years, thanks to the jade pendant given by Jiang Yue and the empress's constant exercise, the empress had no health problems.

After the two left, Jiang Yue's life became dull. Three years had passed just like that. Today was the day his apprentice graduated. The graduation ceremony was similar to that in later generations. This day was also the only day that parents were allowed to enter the academy. Jiang Yue even changed into new clothes. Although there was no photo session, there was something similar, which was drawing it.

It is not as difficult as imagined, because there are basically two photos, one group photo and one class photo. There are no portraits of a dormitory or with good friends. The background and people are fixed. One artist is responsible for a part of the group photo, and then they just need to be integrated together in the end.

I believe everyone knows who came up with this segment even without Jiang Yue saying it. There is a corridor with celebrity portraits in the academy, but there are only three portraits on it. Jiang Yue saw our Emperor Li II. Everyone understands this political correctness.

There is also Master Sun. In recent years, Master Sun fought against the epidemic and also researched out the cowpox. The experiments he personally conducted in the mountains have left Master Sun with psychological trauma. He deserves the title.

As for the protagonist, his contributions are too many, including potatoes, corn, sweet potatoes, penicillin, etc. Jiang Yue can't even write them all. Others have no objection to him being on the list, but don't mention others. Didn't you see that the four big guys in the academy are not on the list? Maybe they will be on the list after they die, but it is impossible when they are alive, and they themselves will not agree to it.

After the graduation ceremony, Jiang Yue took her apprentice back to the Taoist temple. The apprentice was fifteen years old this year and had already reached adulthood. Jiang Yue was also very concerned about what she wanted to do after graduation. She didn't have the idea of ​​keeping her in the Taoist temple forever. After the protagonist's efforts in the past few years, the Tang Dynasty had already started to have some female officials. If the apprentice wanted to become an official or something, she would also support her.

After dinner, Jiang Yue asked his apprentice what he was thinking: "Now that you have graduated, is there any place you want to go?"

"Master, I want to stay in the Taoist temple and learn medical skills and cooking from you first."

"Then all your physics and math studies would have been in vain, wouldn't your three years of hard work be wasted?"

"When I graduated, the Marquis talked to me. He wanted me to go to the research institute he was about to build, which was equivalent to further study. However, it was not certain when the institute would be built. He had not mentioned it to His Majesty yet. But he gave me a notebook to study first, saying that after I finished learning, I would have to rely on myself. He didn't know what path I would take from then on."

"Is that so? Then stay in the Taoist temple first."

"Master, I don't think I will inherit the Taoist temple in the future. Won't you be angry?"

"What's there to be angry about? When you went to study at the academy, I was already prepared for this. Just go and pursue your ideals."

"Woo woo woo~, Master, you are so kind."

"If nothing unexpected happens, I will still live for a long time. When you are older, you can accept a disciple for me. The Taoist temple must be passed down. You must keep this in mind and investigate in advance if you see a suitable one."

"Ah? Master, I'm only fifteen years old. How can I be someone else's master?"

"So your teacher is asking you to grow up before considering it. You can't always be fifteen years old."
