Chapter 729: Humble Ghost Doctor

"This...thank you, Grandpa Mo! You are so kind!"

Qiao Ran felt indescribably touched.

Even before meeting me, the old prince was able to think that I might need medicinal herbs, so he traveled such a long way from the northern border to bring them back.

She secretly decided that since the old prince had finally returned to Beijing, he would definitely not return to Northern Xinjiang so soon. She had to find time as soon as possible to get some more good medicine for him to take back.

"Grandpa Mo, I see that you are in good spirits and walk with a breeze. You should not have any major health problems. How about I take your pulse again? If you have any minor problems, I can treat them for you as well."

"Okay, okay, thank you for your help then."

The old prince readily extended his hand and asked Qiao Ran to take his pulse immediately.

"Grandpa Mo, there's nothing wrong with your health, but there are some minor problems. Do you have chronic cold legs, back problems, or a cough that you can't cough out because of excessive phlegm?"

"Right, right, right! Little girl, you are really amazing. You can diagnose it just by looking at my pulse. I do have these old ailments. Although I have had a lot of relief after taking your medicine, it is still not completely cured."

Qiao Ran apologized, "I'm sorry, I didn't think it through. The medicine I gave you didn't target these symptoms. I'll make you some pills and medicine packs for the symptoms in the next few days. The symptoms will be gone in a month or two."

"Okay, that's great! I have had these illnesses for decades, and in the bitter cold of northern Xinjiang, many soldiers also have these illnesses. If you can make these medicines, I will buy as many as you have. Or I can buy your prescription and let the military doctor prepare the medicine."

"You don't have to pay. This is my gift to you and the soldiers of Northern Frontier. You can tell me what other symptoms the soldiers have. During this period, I will take the time with the ghost doctor to make more pills for the symptoms. You can also take the prescription back for your use."

"Okay, okay! You are such a kind girl! When you are free in a couple of days, come to the palace and talk to grandpa. I will tell you about the Northern Frontier. But you still have to pay for the medicine, using the money from the army! You are my future granddaughter-in-law, how can I let you suffer any loss?"

"You really don't have to give it to me. If Grandpa Mo insists on giving me money, then he is treating me like an outsider."

Seeing that the old prince insisted on paying for her medicine, Qiao Ran quickly refused.

The two of them were pushing and shoving each other, one insisted on giving, and the other refused to accept, and neither could convince the other.

At this time, the ghost doctor who was sitting next to him and had already quietly finished eating half of the honeydew melon grabbed his sleeve and wiped his mouth carelessly, and said faintly:

"Alright, old prince, my master said no, so don't give it to me. My master doesn't need this little money. Besides, I am the one who is mainly responsible for making pills and grinding medicine powder! I am the one who is working hard, not my master! She said no, so she doesn't want it. You should keep it for yourself to nourish your body! This time I saw you, you are much thinner than a few years ago. Unlike me, after following my master, you eat and drink well, and you are much whiter and fatter than before!"

He had just finished speaking with a smug look on his face when he felt that the corner of his mouth was not wiped clean yet, so he lifted up his sleeve again to wipe it again. As a result, he was given a death stare by his master.

"Hey, Master, I was wrong. I'll wipe it with a cloth right now!"

The ghost doctor smiled ingratiatingly, reached out to take out a cloth from his bosom to wipe his mouth, but came up empty-handed.

It's bad. During the time when the master was not at home, he had forgotten most of the hygiene habits set by the master and even forgot to bring a cloth to wipe his mouth.

"Hey, I washed the cloth last night, and it's not dry yet. I'll collect it later."

The ghost doctor smiled awkwardly. The great doctor was as humble as an obedient child in front of his master.

Although the old prince already knew that the ghost doctor had become this girl's apprentice, he couldn't help but secretly admire her when he saw this situation.

Even the Ghost Doctor, an old stubborn man who refused to submit to or respect anyone, would willingly bow down to this little girl and become her apprentice. I wonder how powerful this girl is!

I heard that the once-in-five-year Medical Saint Conference will be held soon. This girl should be persuaded by the Ghost Doctor to participate, right?

He was really looking forward to this girl's amazing performance!

Those old doctors, some with immortal looks and some with eccentric personalities, would definitely be impressed by this little girl just like the ghost doctor, right?
