Chapter 27: In My Name

It was just a sentence, yet it was filled with a great doctor's boundless hopes for the future of medical skills!

Uncle Song stood quietly to the side, watching his wife tear up, completely changed from her earlier carefree and unrestrained demeanor, and he felt slightly comforted, bowing his head and wiping his tears as well.

After a long while, Gu Changsheng lifted his head, his eyes slightly red, and looked towards Uncle Song, his tone ethereal, "Grandfather, I truly wish to use this medical book to benefit the thousands of doctors..."

Uncle Song nodded, still remembering how the old master had been too frail to leave his bed yet still bent over it, insisting on writing, saying that the more detailed his memories, the less wrongful paths future generations would have to tread.

Lunch was simple, just stir-fried vegetables and steamed bread to stave off hunger, which Gu Changsheng, uncharacteristically quiet, finished before taking the medical book back to his room.
