Shi Jin turned to look at her.
"Sorry, did I disturb you?" she asked.
Shi Jin shook her head. "What happened to your medicine?"
"These are all Chinese medicine ingredients. When I came, I wrote down the names of these ingredients, but the papers were mixed up." Li Yuanyuan fiddled with the medicinal ingredients. Some of them looked extremely similar and were already mixed together.
The teacher came in and started the lesson.
Li Yuanyuan had no choice, but to pack all the herbs together and put them on the table.
After class, she opened the bag with a bitter expression, but she could not tell the difference.
"This is angelica root, this is notopterygium root." Shi Jin reached out and separated her herbs. "Eleuthero root, Chinese silkvine root-bark, muskroot-like semiaquilegia root and nut grass."
As she spoke, she distributed the herbs.
These herbs looked very similar to each other. Even a professional Chinese doctor wouldn't dare to make a complete judgment on them.
Li Yuanyuan looked at Shi Jin in surprise. Even if she liked Chinese medicine, she didn't have the time to differentiate the herbs, right?
"The rest are pretty different from each other. You can organize it yourself, right?"
"Yes." Li Yuanyuan looked at Shi Jin's side profile. She put on her earbuds and seemed to be listening to something.
When it was time for the next class, Li Yuanyuan saw that she had taken off her earbuds and said softly, "Thank you."
"You're welcome."
Li Yuanyuan realized that Shi Jin was not as difficult to interact with as the rumors said. She spoke a lot more. "I'm so excited. Class is starting today. Are you ready?"
"Do you need to make any preparations?" Shi Jin asked.
"Not really, but I heard from my grandfather that there are fewer and fewer people learning ancient Chinese medicine. I learned it because my grandfather is an old Chinese doctor, but today is the medicinal herbs class. Look, didn't I bring some common herbs over just now?"
Sure enough, there were others who brought medicinal herbs over.
Li Yuanyuan said, "Do you live on campus? I don't think I saw you at the dormitory building."
"1 don't live on campus."
"No wonder. When I moved in last night, I heard a lot of people say that there were only two reasons people chose this major. Either our family is already in this line of work, or because the score requirements for this major were the lowest and this major was the easiest to get into.There are basically no other exceptions. What about you?"
After Li Yuanyuan finished speaking, she suddenly recalled Shi Jin's status as the top scorer of the college entrance examination and her ability to distinguish herbs earlier. She stuck out her tongue. "You must have chosen this because you like it, right?"
"You're right." Shi Jin nodded.
Li Yuanyuan looked at her enviously. "I'm so envious of you for having your own ideals. Anyway, I don't know what to do. I've watched Grandpa treat patients since I was young, so I chose this major."
"Work hard. You can also treat this major as your dream."
Li Yuanyuan did not know why, but she suddenly felt that her major was not so useless anymore.
Shi Jin did not attend classes for long. After the morning classes ended, she went to Ouyang Ping and asked for leave. "Teacher Ouyang, I've been rather busy recently so I won't be coming over. I want you to approve a leave."
"You're not coming anymore?" Ouyang Ping was a little regretful. "Some basic courses are still very important. If you don't build a good foundation in your first year, it will be very difficult to learn in the future."
"I will find time to read more books," Shi Jin replied.
Ouyang Ping handed a stack of books to her. "Well, these are the documents that I found for you previously. I was just about to pass them to you. Since you're not here for this period of time, you should keep these books and read them properly. Although the ancient traditional Chinese medicine major is an unpopular one, there are still many areas that can be studied."
Seeing that there were many books, he said, "Wait a moment. I'll get your senior to send you off. Liangjing, come over for a minute."
