The Rise of the Writers of the Republic of China

Chapter 295 294【Abolition of Traditional Chinese Medicine】

San Le Hall.

The sunshine in early spring was just right, and Meng Xiaodong, who was seven months pregnant, was walking in the garden with the help of her maid.

Zhou Hexuan sat on the bench at the door and asked, "How's the progress?"

Zhu Xiangdao: "The recruitment work went smoothly, and 24 people were initially screened out..."

"I'm talking about the case of embezzlement of education donations." Zhou Hexuan smiled wryly.

"Fu Shuangquan refused to admit the corruption, but the ordinary employees below have confessed, and the Tianjin District Court decided to hold a trial in early April." Zhu Xiang said.

Ordinary employees don't get much greed, they can only share a little money, so they naturally plead guilty. If you actively return the stolen money, you may not have to go to jail. Instead, the main criminals gritted their teeth and refused to let go.

Zhu Xiang is not only a hot-blooded and angry youth, but also a vicious person. He spent four months quietly collecting some important evidence, which made it impossible for Fu Shuangquan and others to deny it.

Zhou Hexuan didn't want to talk about this anymore, and asked with a smile: "I heard that Mrs. Zun is going to give birth soon?"

"It's almost full term." Zhu Xiang finally smiled when he said this.

Zhou Hexuan said: "When the child is born, I will be a godfather."

"Hahaha, no problem." Zhu Xiang couldn't stop laughing.

In fact, Zhu Xiang does not love his wife because it is an arranged marriage.

As a romantic poet, I have a yearning for love more or less in my heart, and I always feel that an arranged marriage has ruined my life's happiness.

In history, Zhu Xiang was very miserable, but his wife Liu Nijun never left him. Even when Zhu Xiang was at his worst, she worked as a female worker in a spinning mill to support the whole family, which slowly moved Zhu Xiang.

Later, Zhu Xiang studied in the United States and wrote 106 love letters to his wife in two years, which is equivalent to writing one letter a week, which shows that the relationship between the two is still good.

It's a pity that due to frustration in both life and career, Zhu Xiang has mental problems and his personality has become more and more manic. In the end, he was suspicious all day long, showing symptoms of persecution paranoia, and even suspected that his wife was cheating, and often committed domestic violence against her.

Liu Nijun couldn't bear it anymore, and offered to divorce, shattering Zhu Xiang's last hope of life, and committed suicide by diving into the water with two collections of poetry in his arms.

Judging from the current situation, Zhu Xiang's spirit is relatively normal. Although he is indifferent to his wife, he has gradually accepted it.

Hope the tragedy doesn't happen again.

Zhu Xiang suddenly said, "Mingcheng, I want to study in the United States."

"Then what about your wife and children?" Zhou Hexuan really didn't expect that Zhu Xiang would go to study abroad just like in history.

Zhu Xiang said: "Let's wait another six months. By then, the child will be almost half a year old, and the foundation will be on the right track. I will go to the United States after everything is arranged."

Zhou Hexuan asked, "Do you need help?"

"No, I've applied for the Geng Grant, and I have a friend to help me, so I'm not short of money for studying abroad," Zhu Xiang said, "It's just Ni Jun and the child, please ask Brother Mingcheng to take care of you."

Zhou Hexuan said with a smile: "I already said I'm a godfather, can I just ignore it?"

Zhu Xiang cupped his fists and said, "Thank you very much."

Alas, whether it is Li Shoumin, Zhu Xiang, or Shen Congwen, they are all young people with pursuit and ambition.

Let's go, Zhou Hexuan never thought of chaining them to the newspaper office.

By the way, Li Shoumin, this gentleman's "Swordsman of Shushan" is now popular in several northern provinces, and even has a small reputation in the south. He also worshiped Shang Xiaoyun, one of the Four Great Danes, and Duan Maolan, Duan Qirui's nephew, and was deeply trusted by Fu Zuoyi, so he was very proud of himself.

Duan Maolan recently served as the director of the Tianjin Telephone Bureau and invited Li Shoumin to be his secretary in the past, and Li Shoumin readily agreed. Because Fu Zuoyi had too many secretaries, Li Shoumin had nothing to do all day long, so he could do some practical things at the telephone office.

Li Shoumin is also addicted to being an official. He dreams of making a difference in the officialdom. But he doesn't like relying on his nepotism to get to the top, he just wants to rely on his own ability, which is a bit difficult to deal with.

Back then when Zhang Zuolin was so powerful, Zhou Hexuan asked Zhang Xueliang to intercede, so he could arrange a good errand for Li Shoumin, but Li Shoumin didn't bother with it.

It's a good thing to be proud, but if you don't have a background, it's hard to do well in officialdom.

Zhou Hexuan was chatting with Zhu Xiang when suddenly a servant came to report, "Sir, Doctor Ding is here."

Zhou Hexuan got up quickly and walked over to meet him.

I saw an old man about 60 years old, with a gray beard, leaning on a cane, followed by an apprentice carrying a medicine box, who had been led in by a servant.

"Mr. Ding's atonement, I will welcome you!" Zhou Hexuan stepped forward to salute.

The old man stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Mr. Zhou, you are welcome."

This old man is called Ding Guorui, he is the leader of traditional Chinese medicine in Tianjin, the founder of Tianjin Medical Research Association, and he is good at internal medicine, gynecology and pediatrics.

In the late Qing Dynasty, when the wind spread from the west to the east, everything emphasized "Chinese learning for body and Western learning for application", including Chinese medicine.

During the reign of Emperor Guangxu, Ding Guorui called for the introduction of the scientific system of Western medicine, and also tried his best to promote the establishment of the Tianjin Medical Research Association. According to the system of western medicine, he divided Chinese medicine into internal medicine, gynecology, pediatrics, throat and dentistry, ophthalmology, emergency miscellaneous diseases and other subjects in the medical research association.

Among them, Jiguke specializes in sorting out ancient Chinese medicine books, advocating eliminating the superfluous and preserving the true. There is also a new department, calling for learning the strengths of Western medicine and the advanced pharmaceutical methods of Western medicine.

Ding Guorui also wrote articles denouncing the ills and chaos of Chinese medicine in newspapers such as Ta Kung Pao. For example, there is a lack of communication between medicine and medicine in Chinese medicine. For example, Chinese medicine often prescribes prescriptions indiscriminately. For example, most of the pharmacy staff are illiterate.

Although Ding Guorui is a national expert in Chinese medicine, he also has a lot of research on Western medicine, and he is a pioneer in the "integration of Chinese and Western medicine".

Due to his influence and status in Tianjin's TCM circle, coupled with his advanced age, he seldom visits clinics in person in recent years. However, this old gentleman admired Zhou Hexuan's knowledge and conduct, and made an exception to come to Sanle Hall every month to personally conduct routine inspections for Meng Xiaodong.

Zhang Yunhe helped his daughter to sit down in the living room, and said with a smile, "Dr. Laoding is here."

Ding Guorui first took Meng Xiaodong's pulse, then took out a western medical stethoscope to carefully check the condition of the fetus, then took off the stethoscope and said: "The pulse is stable, the fetus is moving normally, there is no need to worry."

Zhang Yunhe said: "Doctor Ding, Xiaodong is seven months pregnant, why don't you prescribe an anti-fetal medicine."

Ding Guorui waved his hand and said: "The medicine is three-point poisonous. It is better for pregnant women to take less medicine. Don't give pregnant women too much tonic, just enough nutrition. Western medicine is still very advanced in terms of pregnancy and childbirth. After a while, Then you can contact the Western Hospital, and if there is any situation, you will be sent directly to the hospital."

Zhu Xiang hadn't left yet. Hearing this, he whispered next to Zhou Hexuan, "This old Chinese medicine doctor is not pedantic, and he even offered to recommend western medicine."

"It would be great if all Chinese medicine practitioners think so." Zhou Hexuan smiled helplessly.

Since the Beiyang government, it has been forbidden to open schools of Chinese medicine, and universities have also banned the establishment of departments of Chinese medicine. Four years ago, the Chinese medicine community sought to incorporate Chinese medicine into the school system, but it fell through due to strong opposition from the Western medicine community.

Since then, the debate between Chinese and Western medicine has changed from an academic debate to an ideological one. The two sides abused each other, not looking at each other's strengths, but attacking frantically based on their weaknesses.

Today's western medicine is also very imperfect, and the treatment effect of many difficult and miscellaneous diseases is actually not as good as that of traditional Chinese medicine, so the two sides are evenly matched in the debate. Suppressed on all fronts.

After Ding Guorui checked Meng Xiaodong, he chatted with Zhou Hexuan about "The Rise of Great Powers". This old man is advanced in thinking and has a little international vision. The old and the young chatted happily.

But on the second day, news suddenly came from the south. The Ministry of Health convened the first meeting of the Central Health Committee, and someone proposed the "Abolition of Old Medicine to Remove Obstacles to Medical Hygiene", also known as the "Abolition of Traditional Chinese Medicine Case" .

Except for the undersecretary of the Ministry of Health and two counselors who abstained from the vote, all members of the committee voted in favor of this proposal, which can be said to have been passed unanimously.

Instant frying pan in the Chinese medicine field.
