281 So Lady Lu was this Kind of Person

Inside the private room, Zhao Lingfeng, Mo Bei, and a stranger chatted.

Lu Jiao and the others greeted the group. Zhao Lingfeng and Mo Bei introduced, “This is Yu Guangquan. He’s one of the biggest businessmen in the Qinghe District. He specializes in the pharmaceutical business.”

Lu Jiao knew right away then why Zhao Lingfeng invited him. For their pharmacy, they will need large quant.i.ties of medicinal herbs. This man may very well be their supplier.

Lu Jiao nodded toward Yu Guangquan and introduced the dean and professor to everyone.

The school in the Qinghe District was highly respected so everyone warmly welcomed the dean and professor and then asked them to sit.

After some chatting, Qi Lei got to it, “I invited everyone here today to witness my apprentices.h.i.+p under my master. My name is Qi Lei and I come from the Qi family in the capital city. My family comprises generations of doctors and my father is currently an imperial doctor.

Though my family sounds impressive, my medical skills are not. My master’s medical skills are what should be considered amazing. Today, I want to be taken in as her apprentice.”

Qi Lei then knelt down towards Lu Jiao, “Master, please accept my gesture of respect.”

Since Lu Jiao had agreed to be his master, she had to get over their awkward age difference. However, she didn’t expect him to have such an outstanding family background. His entire family was in the medical field and his father was even an imperial doctor.

To be involved with the Qi family turned out to be beneficial for her. Though imperial doctors were not considered to be that high-ranked, they were still highly respected.

“Since I have agreed to take you as my apprentice, I will do everything in my power to transfer knowledge. As your master, I have two points I want to make. We are doctors – no matter what decision you make, you have to make sure they are decisions you’re able to live with. We are not G.o.ds and we shouldn’t think of ourselves as such. When we can, we should do what we can to save others. When we cannot, we shouldn’t force it.”

Everyone in the room turned to look at Lu Jiao. Her words were very different from what they expected. Most doctors make themselves seem selfless but Lu Jiao didn’t.

Qi Lei was also surprised. Because he was born into a family whose motto was: Pract.i.tioners of medicine must not use medicine to harm others, must not use medicine to seek personal gain, and must not use medicine to aid evildoers. Doctors must try their best to treat patients, even at the cost of sacrificing themselves.

Qi Lei then thought of Lu Jiao’s personality and understood. What she said was a great representation of his master’s personality. After spending some time with her, he decided that her straightforwardness was good.

Inside the room, Zhao Lingfeng reminded Qi Lei, “Didn’t you prepare a gift for your master?”

Qi Lei snapped back to reality and picked up six fancily packed boxes to give to Lu Jiao.

“Master, this is a gift from me. Please accept this.”

Lu Jiao noticed that there were six boxes, which meant he had bought enough for Xie Yunjin and the four little ones. How thoughtful of Qi Lei.

Lu Jiao was happy to accept an apprentice like this. Though Qi Lei was older than her, he called her “master” and she had been genuinely treating him as her apprentice. Lately, she’s been organizing her notes from before and had rewritten parts of them using traditional characters.

“You’ve given me a gift. As your master, how can I not give you one?”

Lu Jiao then took out a notebook, “This is the journal my master gave me. I made a copy of it for you. Inside are notes related to performing surgery. You can give it a read. If you need help, you can ask me.”

Lu Jiao did this to provide an explanation to everyone as to how she was able to operate despite her young age.

Out of the group, only Xie Yunjin knew that the journal was likely filled with notes of surgeries she’s done before. Seeing how thick the notebook was, Xie Yunjin realized just how many surgeries Lu Jiao had done before.

Respect filled Xie Yunjin’s eyes and happiness arose within him. This was the woman he was in love with. She was worth his pursuit and his patience.

Inside the room, Qi Lei excitedly took over the journal and once against kowtow’ed.

This gift was much more valuable than what he had given her.

“Thank you, master.”

On the side, Zhao Lingfeng quickly brought him a teapot, “Hurry and pour your master some tea.”

Qi Lei put the journal aside and poured some tea for Lu Jiao, “Being my master for one day is the equivalent of being a parent to me. Although the master is young, I plan on wors.h.i.+ping you as your disciple. You will be like an elder whom I respect like a father.”

Lu Jiao took a sip of tea and smiled, “I know your character and I trust that you will do better than me. I won’t say much then, please get up. From now on, I will do everything I can to guide you through medicine.”

Qi Lei nodded then slowly got up.

Inside the room, Zhao Lingfeng and Mo Bei exchanged glances. Lady Lu had a lot of self-awareness and knew that Qi Lei would be a better doctor than her. Qi Lei truly did act more like a doctor. Lady Lu, to a certain degree, was too persistent in her own ways.

However, her medical skills were truly astonis.h.i.+ng and n.o.body dared to point out her weaknesses.

The food came then and everyone started to discuss Lu Jiao’s skills, “I cannot believe that Lady Lu is so skilled at such a young age.”

The dean and the professor have heard about Lu Jiao’s capabilities but they didn’t expect her to be so astounding.

The two of them found this intriguing and were in disbelief.

Lu Jiao smiled, “There is no end to learning. I’m not that great, they’re just being kind with their words.”

The four little ones disagreed with her and started to speak, “Uncle dean, my mommy is a great doctor. Everyone from the village calls her a ‘miracle doctor.'”

“Not only is she a good doctor, she knows how to hunt and climb trees.”

After the Second Born’s comment, everyone turned to Lu Jiao. So she was that kind of person.

Lu Jiao’s face dropped.

Xie Yunjin was about to scold the Second Born for talking nonsense in public.

However, Lu Jiao gave him a look that stopped him. Though the children were young, scolding them before others would embarra.s.s them. They could talk about it later.

Xie Yunjin stopped himself. The Third Born then chimed in, “When I grow up, I’m going to learn medicine from mommy. I want to be an amazing doctor just like her!”
