Lu Gui had been learning medicine from his grandfather all along, but with limited aptitude, he glanced at it and felt he could only prescribe the same kind of prescriptions his grandfather did.
Thus, he thought that when his grandfather asked him to get Manbao, it was to have Manbao come over to see the patients.
Manbao thought so too.
But upon their arrival at the attending doctor's house, the doctor was sitting out front in the clinic area, dispensing medicine to the patients himself.
Upon seeing Manbao, he waved and said, "Come here, come here, help me prepare a couple of medicines."
He chuckled, "I'm old and can't move anymore."
Manbao ran over, however instinctively glanced at Lu Gui, remembering that he had always been the one to help with dispensing medicines in their family.
Lu Gui also wanted to step forward, but since his grandfather had called for Manbao, he hesitated for a moment and remained standing still.
