Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When Mrs. Yang told her daughter the news of Su Binglan accepting female apprentices, Yang Man was so excited that she jumped. “Really, Mother?!” Mrs. Yang smiled and said, “It’s true. You can study medicine this time.”

The Yang family was pretty well off. Otherwise, they would not have an oxcart. Moreover, Mr. and Mrs. Yang were more open-minded than most. They had wanted their daughter to study in a private medical school, but the doctors there did not accept girls.

If they did, the parents of the boys who attended that private medical school would no longer send their sons there to study.

Since that was the case, Mr. and Mrs. Yang had no choice but to let their daughter study at home.

Yang Man’s two younger brothers attended a private school to learn calligraphy, so they would teach their sister when they came home. Therefore, Yang Man knew how to read many story books and such.

Thanks to that, she could boldly say she wanted to study medicine on that fateful day. She knew she could have saved her father that day if she had been a doctor.

The Yangs were terrified that day as they awaited a doctor to save them. Fortunately, they received treatment in time and were fine.

Mr. and Mrs. Yang had experienced those things and felt it would be beneficial to have medical skills. After all, it could save their lives at critical moments like those.

Mrs. Yang said, “Of course it’s true. I’ve already prepared new clothes for you. Your father and I will send you to the Su family in an oxcart tomorrow morning. You should study medicine well with Miss Su.”

Yang Man was ecstatic to hear that. “I won’t let you down, Mother!”

Mrs. Yang began taking out the new clothes she had made for Yang Man.

Usually, Yang Man could not bear to wear newer clothes on regular days and was only willing to wear them during New Year. However, her mother took the clothes out so Yang Man could wear them the following day.

Su Binglan had previously asked Su Wenxiu to tidy up the guest room so they could use it as a medical school. She had also told him to spread the news that she wanted to accept female apprentices and that they would study alongside boys.

She wanted to take in ten female apprentices and nurture them to become teachers in her medical school. After all, she knew doctors were lacking in this era. Besides, there were no nurses at that time, either.

More people would have gotten saved if there were more nurses and doctors. If the wounded on the battlefield could receive timely treatment, it would have reduced the number of deaths significantly.

If those people could have returned home to their parents and relatives, their families would have been thrilled.

After nurturing these female students, Su Binglan thought she might bring them to the battlefield if needed. After all, if their parents had concerns about their daughters becoming nurses or doctors, they would not have asked Su Binglan, a female, to save them.

Thus, the female apprentices Su Binglan intended to take in had to be brave.

She did not rest early the night before recruitment, either. Instead, she lit an oil lamp and wrote a proposal. She was still writing a few nursing textbooks like she had done previously on medical knowledge for Su Wenxiu.

Since Su Wenxiu had already studied those books thoroughly, he could use them as teaching materials.

Su Binglan even made a class schedule and only went to sleep when it was very late at night.

The following day, Shen Qiuhua saw a girl standing at the door when she opened it. The young lady was dressed cleanly with a backpack on her back, and her parents were with her, too.

Mr. and Mrs. Yang had bought the backpack Yang Man wore for her to use when attending medical school.

Whether it was students in private schools or colleges, carrying a backpack was trendy now. Not only was it light, but it could also hold many books and school supplies.

“You are?” Shen Qiuhua asked with a surprised smile.

Mrs. Yang answered softly, “Hello, Ma’am. I heard Miss Su will open a medical school that will accept girls. My daughter wants to learn, so I brought her here. Oh, we’re the Yangs from Yangshan Village. It was Second Young Master Su who saved our family during that blizzard the other day.”

Shen Qiuhua remembered the Yangs after listening to Mrs. Yang’s explanation.

There was a blizzard that day, and Shen Qiuhua had accompanied Su Binglan to Stone Village. When the duo returned, they discovered that Su Wenxiu and Su Wenwu had gone to save a family from an overturned oxcart.

At that time, Su Wenxiu told the duo that a young lady from the Yang family was interested in studying medicine. However, no one accepted female medical students then.

Back then, Shen Qiuhua only listened to his story but did not expect Su Binglan to start accepting female students. She also did not expect Yang Man to be so serious and come to learn.

Shen Qiuhua was thrilled. “Quick, come in. It’s still early, so you haven’t had breakfast yet, right? We just happened to make some. Let’s eat together.”

She thought the Yangs were good people since they were open-minded enough to let their daughter study medicine. Therefore, she was delighted to invite the family in for dinner.

Mrs. Yang said, “M-Ma’am, we’ve already eaten. You don’t have to trouble yourself. Here’s a gift for becoming my daughter’s teacher.”

She revealed a box of tea leaves as she spoke. The Yangs had asked someone to buy them so they would have good tea leaves for the Su family.

Although the Yangs’ conditions were average, and they were usually reluctant to eat much, they could not be careless with their gifts.

Shen Qiuhua hurriedly waved. “You didn’t have to. My daughter said the apprenticeship is free. She doesn’t accept any apprenticeship gifts either.

There’s really no need.”

She tried to persuade Mrs. Yang to take back the tea leaves.

After getting up and washing up, Su Binglan heard the commotion at the door and went over to look. Then she noticed what was happening. She looked at the twelve-year-old girl before her and asked, “Are you interested in studying medicine?”

“Yes, Miss Su,” Yang Man’s voice was unmistakable and crisp, and her eyes shined brightly.

“Are you sure? Learning medicine is tough, you know?”

Yang Man responded firmly, “I’m not afraid of hardships, Miss Su.”

Su Binglan smiled when she heard the young lady’s words. “Why do you want to study medicine?”

“I want to protect my family and study hard to make them proud. I also want to be a female doctor in the future.” Yang Man straightened her back when she said that.

“If you must risk your life to save someone else’s one day, will you?”

“I will!” Yang Man answered severely, “Just like when Second Young Master Su risked being in the blizzard to save my father.”

That day was perilous, and the Yangs were terrified. Only when Su Wenxiu and Su Wenwu arrived did the Yangs feel safe.

Su Binglan looked at Yang Man and nodded in satisfaction. “What’s your name?”

“My name is Yang Man.”

Su Binglan stretched out her hand. “Let’s go. You’ll be studying at my medical school from now on. You’ll have lunch here every afternoon and with me this morning. ”

“Master, I’ve already had breakfast.” Yang Man spoke very clearly.

Su Binglan said smilingly, “You can eat more. I personally made breakfast. Since you came the earliest, you will be the group leader of the girls. Also, you don’t have to call me Master. Just call me Miss Su.”

Although Yang Man was only two years younger than Su Binglan, Su Binglan treated her like a kid. After all, she wanted to teach her apprentices well.

Mr. and Mrs. Yang saw that Su Binglan had accepted their daughter and heaved a sigh of relief. Then they thanked Su Binglan profusely..
