Chapter 1524 Apprenticeship

"Mr. Pi said it very well. We need to reflect on this. From now on, our Chinese medicine community must unite as one and not allow our thousands of years of culture to be surpassed by some foreign scoundrels. Now, I declare the banquet officially open."

Lu Xiuran was so excited that his voice was trembling.

The banquet began and the waiters immediately started serving the dishes.

Li Moheng personally poured a glass of wine for Pi Yangyang, then raised the glass and said gratefully: "Mr. Pi, Jinghan told me about her experience in Country J, which was very thrilling. If it weren't for Mr. Pi's intervention, the consequences would be disastrous. Today's banquet is not only to celebrate Mr. Pi's triumphant return, but also to express my sincere gratitude to Mr. Pi from the entire Li family!"

Pi Yangyang picked up the wine glass and said calmly: "Miss Li is my Chinese compatriot. She was bullied abroad and I happened to know about it. How can I just sit back and watch? Master Li, you are too polite."

Li Moheng said excitedly: "Mr. Pi said it well! My Chinese youth are really passionate! Mr. Pi, your remarks just now made me ashamed. Our Chinese medicine family does have sectarianism. All families guard their own heritage, are unwilling to communicate, and even guard against being stolen, thinking that all their heritage is a treasure to ensure the development of the family.

"Now that I think about it, it's a little ridiculous. Mr. Pi's medical skills are so great, what does our inheritance mean to him? So, I'm going to make a statement here: my Li family will open its doors to accept disciples from now on. As long as you are interested in Chinese medicine, I can teach you. At the same time, I will make rubbings of all the medical books and pharmacopoeias passed down by my Li family ancestors and donate them to the Chinese Medicine Association for more people to learn!"

Hearing this, Lu Xiuran also became excited and asked in surprise: "Master Li, are you serious about what you said?"

Li Moheng nodded and said, "Among the younger generation of our Li family, Jinghan has the best qualifications. As for my disappointing son, he has no interest in medicine. If I still stick to the old ways, the medical skills of our Li family may be lost. Mr. Pi's words have awakened me. As long as they contribute to Chinese medicine, it doesn't matter whether the student's surname is Li or Liu!"

Lu Xiu Ran laughed and said, "Patriarch Li's words are really insightful. Well, on behalf of the Chinese Medicine Association, I would like to thank Patriarch Li for his generosity."

Pi Yangyang smiled slightly and said, "I think Miss Li has good qualifications. Why not let her go to the National Medical Hall and learn medical skills from Director Lu and others?"

Li Moheng's eyes lit up and he said in surprise, "That's right. Anyway, this girl doesn't want to go back with me, so it's a good idea to let her stay in the National Medical Hall to learn medical skills."

But then he smiled slightly, looked at Lu Xiuran, and said: "Director Lu, I want Jinghan to become your disciple, you won't refuse, right?"

Lu Xiuran was a little confused. After thinking about it, he realized that it was Pi Yangyang who made the suggestion, so he couldn't refuse it. He smiled softly and said, "As long as Patriarch Li is not afraid of me delaying her, I will agree to it."

"Okay, then it's settled."

Li Moheng immediately turned around and shouted happily, "Jinghan, come here."

Li Jinghan was completely focused on Pi Yangyang and had been paying attention to this table.

Hearing his father's call, he immediately stood up and came over, asking expectantly, "Dad, what's the matter?"

"Two things. First, you were in trouble in Country J, and it was Mr. Pi who saved you. Shouldn't you toast to Mr. Pi?"

Li Moheng's eyes flickered and he spoke slowly.

Li Jinghan immediately nodded and said, "Yes."

Then, he took the glass of wine handed over by Li Moheng and said respectfully to Pi Yangyang: "Mr. Pi, thank you for saving me in Country J. I also want to thank you for keeping your promise and rescuing those kidnapped compatriots. This glass of wine, I toast to you!"

After saying that, she raised her glass and drank it all.

Maybe she just couldn't drink, and after drinking this glass, the spiciness made her cough slightly a few times.

However, there was always a smile on her face.

Pi Yangyang smiled and said, "If any Chinese encountered this kind of thing, they would not sit idly by."

Then, he also drank a glass.

"The second thing is, didn't you always want to stay in the capital without going back with me? Now I agree."

Li Moheng saw that Pi Yangyang had drunk some wine and said again.

Li Jinghan looked at Li Moheng in surprise and asked in disbelief: "Really? Can I stay in Beijing?"

"Yes, but there is a condition. You must take Director Lu as your teacher now, and stay in the National Medical Hall to study medicine in the future."

Li Moheng nodded affirmatively.

Without even thinking, Li Jinghan immediately picked up the wine glass, knelt on one knee in front of Lu Xiuran, raised the wine glass with both hands and said respectfully: "Master, I offer you a glass of wine."

Lu Xiuran was a little stunned. He didn't expect Li Jinghan to be so straightforward. It caught him off guard.

But he quickly reacted, took the wine glass, and said happily: "Okay, you will stay in the Chinese Medicine Hall from now on and study with your senior brothers and sisters."

Li Jinghan stood up and said happily: "Thank you, Master."

Then she looked at Pi Yangyang with a smile on her face and said, "Mr. Pi, if I encounter any problems in the future, can I ask you for advice?"

Pi Yangyang smiled slightly and said, "No problem."

Li Jinghan was immediately extremely excited. He happily returned to his table and said to Li Bohan, "Brother, I can stay in the capital. I have already accepted Director Lu as my master. I will study medicine in the National Medical Hall in the future..."

Li Bohan exclaimed in surprise, "Ah!" and said, "Then what should I do?"

"Who made you uninterested in medicine?" Li Jinghan said with some pride.

Li Bohan was a little frustrated. He drank a glass of wine and said, "I will come to Beijing."

At this time, Ma Shangfeng suddenly stood up and said, "I also want to go to the Chinese Medical Hall to study."

Li Jinghan looked at him in astonishment and said, "Do you think anyone can enter the Chinese Medicine Hall?"

Ma Shangfeng said disdainfully: "If you can get in, why can't I?"

Li Jinghan didn't say much.

She knew very well that the reason she was able to enter and become Lu Xiuran's apprentice was entirely because Lu Xiuran had a good impression of her father.

But the most important thing is that Lu Xiuran agreed so readily for Pi Yangyang's sake.

As for Ma Shangfeng, it is hard to say whether Lu Xiuran can agree.

Ma Shangfeng has always liked Li Jinghan. Seeing that she stayed in the Beijing Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic, he wanted to stay there too.

He still understands the principle that those who are close to water get the moon first.

And he knew very well that the reason why Li Jinghan wanted to stay in Beijing was because of Pi Yangyang.

He came to the main table and said proudly, "President Lu, I also want to study at the Chinese Medical Hall. Is that okay?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Ma Shixuan, who was standing by, suddenly looked embarrassed.

At the same time, there was a burst of surprised sighs from the audience.
