Mrs. Liu said: "Zi Qi originally let go of your books back then, and thanks to you staying with Shan Bao these years, now things have been sorted out, and the truth of what happened thirteen years ago has been revealed, and Zi Qi's revenge has been avenged."
Already..."
Daji knelt down and said: "Old madam, let the younger one stay with the young master."
When he was young, he was still passionate and wanted to make a career in the world, but for more than ten years, he had been by Bai Shan's side and had already become accustomed to it.
And at his age, he can't just turn around and wander around in the world, so if he really wants to go back to farming, he might as well stay with the young master.
Mrs. Liu nodded and said: "This is natural. Shanbao will need more protection from you when he goes on a study tour in the future."
She said: "This does not conflict with releasing your books. Bo'an is very good at studying and he is not young anymore. After studying for two more years, he can consider taking the academic or official examination. It would be better for him if you release his books.
"
Daji didn't speak at all.
Mrs. Liu returned the book to him and said: "After returning to Longzhou, she and Liu Gui went to exchange for good books. This time Manbao also brought her two nephews to Beijing to study. I mean, the place in Qianyang
After all, the schools nearby are not as good as those in the capital. When you go back, take your wife and children to the capital. This will not only make it easier for Bo'an to study, but also your family can be reunited."
Daji hesitated for a moment, then Mrs. Liu smiled and said: "Go quickly, our Bai family is very thin, and Shanbao will still need help in the officialdom in the future. If Boan can become an official, the two children can also help each other in the future."
Da Jilian said he didn't dare, but he still remembered it in his heart. He took the book and the deed of sale, knelt down and kowtowed to the old lady before bowing and retreating.
Early the next morning, Daji led the carriage out of the village. Bai Shan, Man Bao and Bai Erlang drove people to the entrance of the village. Erji's coffin was tied to the carriage, and white flags were hung on the carriage to remind people to give way.
.
Bai Shandao: "We are waiting for you in the capital."
Daji responded, "Master, Miss Man, Master Tang, please take care of yourself."
After that, he jumped on the carriage, flicked his whip, and the carriage drove forward slowly.
Liu Gui and three other servants drove two other carriages to follow.
They will go to Lizhou first and get on a boat. They can go directly from Lizhou to Qinzhou. It only takes one day's journey from Qinzhou to Longzhou's Qianyang County.
Mrs. Liu had already asked someone to rent a boat in Lizhou in advance. Because they brought a coffin, they would need to pay for the charter and pay three times the usual shipping fee.
Ice cubes, etc. are also bought in Lizhou and sent directly to the ship for later use.
The three of them stood on a small slope at the entrance of the village and watched the three carriages slowly walk away until they disappeared. Then they turned around and went home gloomily.
Today is the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, and they will leave tomorrow. It is only one day apart.
Back under the big banyan tree, the three of them stood for a while. Bai Shan said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to finish copying the medical records for Daohe."
Although they did not keep a vigil for Erji, they felt uncomfortable, so they didn't write a single word yesterday, so naturally the medical records were not copied properly.
Man Bao waved his hand directly and said: "It's okay, give him the original manuscript, and then give Dr. Liu what you copied later, and I'll just make up for the rest."
This is also a way.
The three of them went back and took their books and manuscripts with them, then ordered a servant from home to drive them to the Taoist temple.
It had just dawned at this time, and everyone was still at home celebrating the New Year. There was no one on the way up the mountain.
The door of the Taoist temple was open, but there was no one inside. When the three of them crossed the high threshold and entered, it was very quiet inside.
The three of them took it for granted. They first bowed to Master Tianzun in the main hall and then went to the back.
The Taoist priests are also celebrating the New Year. The weather is so cold, so of course everyone gathers around the fire pot to keep warm, chat, and eat some food sent by the believers.
Dao and Daoxu were naturally with their master and uncles. As for the door to the front hall being wide open, they were not worried.
No one would go up the mountain to steal from a Taoist temple. If anyone did, they would be either crazy or starving to death.
The master of Shouqing Temple told Dao and Daoxu that if it was the former, they couldn't argue with a madman; if it was the latter, it would be a meritorious deed for saving someone's life.
However, Dao and Dao secretly felt that the master and uncles were just lazy and afraid of the cold. They felt that there was no one in the cold weather, so they had to sit in the front hall and watch.
Man Bao and the others found the side room where Dao and they often warmed up by the fire. Looking through the crack in the window, there were indeed a lot of people sitting inside.
Bai Shan knocked on the window and heard Taoist Shouguang say in a leisurely voice: "A guest is coming, Shoucai, hurry up and entertain the guest!"
Shoucai said: "Shou Shi, I was on duty in the morning. It's almost noon now, it's your turn."
The three people outside the window looked up at the sun together. It's God's noon. It's only morning, okay?
Shoushi just finished his breakfast and didn't want to move, so he said: "Daohe, Daoxu, you have grown up, it's time to learn to treat guests, you go."
Man Bao couldn't help it anymore, knocked on the window and said, "It's us."
Dao and Daoxu, who had to get up originally, sat back down and said to the window: "Come in quickly, it's so cold outside."
Bai Shan saw that they really didn't want to come out, so he had to pull Man Bao and turned around. He saw a moon gate. After entering, he turned a corner, which happened to be a vegetable field. The three of them turned another corner before reaching the door.
Dao He had already opened the door, and when he saw the three of them, he smiled and said, "I guess you guys also came here in the past two days. I didn't expect it to be today."
Bai Shan handed him the baggage in his hand and couldn't help complaining, "Can't you change the door of this room? Or you can open an extra door over there."
"That will make it wet," Dao He said, "Anyway, this wing is used to pile firewood, so we only keep it warm in winter, so that's it."
The three of them are completely helpless with their muddled life attitude.
This is not the first time they have mentioned the opening of the wing room. Unfortunately, they are willing to walk an extra mile every time and never open the door separately.
Sometimes they are lazy, and even if believers come to worship at their door, they only talk to them through the window and are not willing to go to the front to greet them.
Dao He invited them to sit down and warm themselves together by the fire. Shou Qing looked up at them for a while and asked, "What, is there anyone newly mourned in the village?"
The three of them suddenly became curious. They looked down and saw that they were not wearing linen. How did he know that?
Shouqing didn't explain, he just asked them to sit down, then turned to Shoushi and said, "Go and cook them a bowl of soup."
Shoushi agreed, then reluctantly got up from the stool and went to the kitchen.
Dao He had already opened the bag and read it. He first opened the book with a plain cover and only the words "Medical Book" written on the cover. He scanned it at a glance and was pleasantly surprised, "There are many diseases written on it.
"
Man Bao nodded, "I have listed two to three prescriptions for each disease. You can refer to them in the future."
