Chapter 553 Scare Him
Li Wang shook his head. "Aunt, big brother, the old doctor is very skilled in medicine. He was able to save my uncle even if his head was chopped off by the enemy. He even saved my uncle from such a serious injury. I want to learn from him."
Zhou Guo took a piece of osmanthus cake and ate it happily, saying, "You're right. The doctors in town can't compare with the old doctor. If we want to learn, we have to learn from the best. Otherwise, what's the point of learning? Now we have this opportunity. It's so rare. If it weren't for my uncle, I'm afraid we would never know such a good old doctor in our lives. Since he is willing to learn, let him go. He is a boy, so old, he knows what he is doing!"
Even if it doesn't work out, you can come back.
Everyone was silent.
Although Zhou Guo can no longer have the final say at home, her words carry a lot of weight. This is mainly because although every decision she makes seems to be unsuccessful, it is correct in the end. When the family situation has been getting better and better in the past two years, people sometimes don't even question her decisions anymore.
Li frowned and thought for a while, and finally said, "You can go if you want. Your uncle is also in the army, so he can take care of you. Hey, how about discussing this with your uncle?"
Zhou Guo thought it was possible, and nodded, "Okay, but I think he will definitely agree."
Zhou Dacang listened to them finish their words with a frown, then shifted his gaze to Li Wang beside him. He had not been back for two years, and the child had grown up.
Although he is still young, he is very courageous.
He asked, "Have you really thought about it? Let me tell you first, the military camp is not like home, it's very hard, you may not get enough sleep or food when you are busy! The camp is full of rough people, sometimes they may get angry and slap you aside, especially the wounded, who have injuries and are even more irritable, and will curse you and your ancestors if they don't agree with you, and you can't fight back. In winter, there are no kangs there, so you have to endure it. Many people's hands and feet will be frozen at this time."
Pointing to his ears, he said, "My ears might freeze off! Can you handle it?"
When Mrs. Li heard this, she said, "No, we won't go. It's so cold in winter and there's no kang. You guys are not afraid, but how can a little kid like him endure it?"
She turned to Li Wang and said, "Be obedient. We won't go. It's not for people of your age. When you are as old as your uncle, your aunt will allow you to go."
Li Wang, who was only six years old, also hesitated. He knew what winter in the north was like after spending a few winters here. If there was no kang...
Zhou Guo looked at Zhou Dacang in disbelief. Could it be that he was going to let the old doctor, who was so old, bear the consequences?
He has no martial arts skills and is old. Even with such great medical skills, should we just let him freeze to death if he can't fight?
Even a fool wouldn't do this!
But looking at Li Wang, he thought it would be a good idea to scare him. "This is a big deal. The old doctor will stay at home for more than ten days anyway. Think about it carefully and tell us when you have thought it through. There is no need to rush."
Li Wang went down in frustration. He thought he could endure any hardship.
Zhou Su and Li Lai also hurriedly followed behind him. In the past few years, these people have been inseparable from Jiao and Meng Meng, and they have a very good relationship.
Seeing them walk away, Zhou Guo asked Zhou Dacang, "Are you telling the truth? Aren't there any special cases in the military camp?"
Zhou Dacang smiled and said, "Of course there is. This kind of treatment is only available to our soldiers. But he is not going to be a soldier, but a doctor. Doctors are treated differently from us. Besides, there are many veteran military doctors like the old doctor in the camp. If the younger ones can bear it, can they bear it too?"
Li heaved a sigh of relief. "That's what I told you. Why are you trying to scare him? He's still so young. If you scare him like that, he'll probably back off."
Zhou Dacang said, "He is too young. Although he always acts like an adult, he is still a child after all. The military camp is not some other place where you can come and go as you please. I have to prepare in advance and let him know what the military camp is like. It is better than finding out when he gets there."
Li thought about it and felt that it made sense, "I'll go take a look."
She got up and went out. The two children had been in her home for so many years and had long become part of their family. She cared for them no less than the other children in the family.
Now, only Zhou Guo, Zhou Mai, Zhou Mi, and Zhou Dacang who was lying on the bed were left in the room.
Zhou Dacang said, "How come the child has become like this after I haven't been back for two years? He doesn't look like a child at all. Li Lai is only a year younger than him. He is always laughing and has no worries at all."
Zhou Mi said, "Uncle, he has always been like this. You just didn't notice it. At that time, he followed Zhou Su and Li Lai all day long. He barely said two words a day. His little face was always stern. He already looked like an adult."
Zhou Mai shook his head. "Although he doesn't talk, he knows a little bit about everything. This character is probably similar to his experience when he was escaping."
"That's right." Zhou Guo remembered something and said to them, "He told me that he still remembers the way his mother died beside him. He also remembers when his whole family died. How old was he at that time? Just over three years old!"
Zhou Dacang and the others were very surprised, "Really? He really still remembers it?"
Zhou Guo nodded, "Really? He told me in person that he didn't want anyone in our family to get sick again in the future. He could only cry with his mouth open. I saw that he felt a little guilty. He was only three years old. What could he do?"
Several people were silent, feeling some self-blame and some heartache. They never imagined that such a young child could have such a heavy mind. No wonder he couldn't be happy carrying all these things.
After a while, Zhou Dacang said, "Then let him go. He is getting older. He has been at home for two or three years and has not been able to forget these things. It's good to go to the military camp. He will be busy and will not have time to think about these things. He has seen a lot of life and death, so he will gradually forget these things."
Zhou Guo nodded several times, hoping so.
Li Wang thought about it all night, and got up early the next morning when Zhou Guo got up to practice martial arts. He sneaked into Zhou Dacang's position alone, sat on the kang and waited for him to wake up.
Seeing the determination on his little face, Zhou Guo was afraid that he had made up his mind. He smiled slightly and continued practicing.
People in the military are extremely sensitive to their surroundings. Even though he was sick, Zhou Dacang opened his eyes in a flash after a while. He looked to the side sharply and saw Li Wang staring at him like a wooden man...
Zhou Dacang looked at him straight and asked, "What are you doing so early in the morning?"
