Chapter 1666 - 1666:
Of course, the medicinal porridge cooked by Ruan Yu was fragrant, really stimulating Liu Zhizhong's taste buds.
It was almost dark, and having not eaten anything all day and with so many injuries, he truly was very hungry.
Liu Zhizhong's mouth was almost watering.
Right then, Grandpa Lou said, "Ah-Yu, once this pilot wakes up, he will definitely be grateful to you and Brother Xingban for saving his life. He is an extraordinary person, surely the Warlords will send money to thank you, or he will do it himself. After you pay off the debt, would you like to learn medicine from me?"
Liu Zhizhong was taken aback, suppressing the hunger in his stomach and continued to listen intently.
Ruan Yu replied, "Of course, I want to be like Uncle, learning medical skills, treating illnesses, saving people, and making a living! But... sigh, our family owes over twenty thousand Qian, who would give so much? Besides, there's also Brother Xingban, his family owes over thirty thousand, even more!"
"Haha... Ah-Yu, that's not even sixty thousand Qian yet! You should know that the expense to train a pilot by the Warlords is way beyond comparison to your debts; yours is merely a fraction."
"A fraction... Oh my God, this pilot is really that valuable?"
"Of course! In a place like Vallebang, Warlords with pilots are major Warlords, and they are rich!"
"Hmm, sigh... If only my mom hadn't gotten sick and my dad hadn't taken a high-interest loan. In the end... my mom wasn't cured, and we owe so much money, can't even pay it all back..."
Grandpa Lou fell into silence, placing the prepared medicine on the medicine box and said, "Your dad took on the debt to save your mom, which was unavoidable. Sadly, Xingban's father was hopeless with gambling, he committed suicide, but left debts that troubled his child. I truly hope that you two could pay off the debts soon, learn medicine from me or something; it's a good way to make a living. Besides, haha... you two have known each other for so long, you could be together, start a family!"
"Ah..."
Ruan Yu blushed, "Uncle, don't say that, I haven't made up my mind yet, haha..."
"Girls, haha... they get shy, but eventually, they have to marry! Look, the girls here in Vallebang, at your age, some are already mothers of two kids!"
"Uncle..." Ruan Yu blushed even more, "Let's go check on that pilot, what if he wakes up?"
"Haha... it's time to change his meds too..."
With a chuckle, Grandpa Lou walked towards the bedside in the cave with the medicine.
As for Liu Zhizhong, he turned his head slightly, opened his eyes, and with tears, looked at him.
Grandpa Lou got excited, "Hey, young man, you're awake?"
Liu Zhizhong nodded, he had learned the local language and was quite proficient, he understood everything and could speak and write it too.
"Thank you, doctor, thank you, sister Ah-Yu... I've been awake for a while, I heard everything, haha..."
Liu Zhizhong's voice was still a bit weak, but he spoke Vallebang language very fluently.
Because he had studied it and just overheard the conversation between Grandpa Lou and Ruan Yu, he naturally grasped their local speech nuances, fitting in perfectly.
Upon hearing his words, Grandpa Lou felt even more hopeful. He immediately nodded, "It's good you heard, haha..."
"Ah-Yu, dish out the porridge to cool, in a while let this pilot eat it!"
