Man Bao looked puzzled and asked: "Fang Ji, then are they still your people?"
Han Wuniang smiled and said: "Their parents are still at home. Although their books have been released, they will naturally return to the home after they finish their studies."
Man Bao was stunned for a while before asking: "Are there many people who want to send people to the Imperial Medical Office?"
Han Wuniang sighed and said: "There are so few medical officers, so naturally everyone wants to send them in. However, the Imperial Medical Office is now under the control of His Highness the Crown Prince, and the rules for selection have not been determined yet, so even if each family wants to send them away, they can't send them away for a while."
I can’t even send it in for a while.”
Man Bao nodded with a smile and said: "These things are in the care of Xiao Yuanzheng and the others. I am young, so I only repair books and treat your Majesty's ladies. It is not my turn to take care of these things."
Han Wuniang also guessed it. After all, Manbao is still young, but she said, "You will be the one to teach this female disciple in the future, right? As a gentleman, this Imperial Medical Office was built with your help. You should also be talking about the Imperial Medical Office."
I will consider it."
Manbao thought for a moment and then said: "I will go back and discuss it with Xiao Yuanzheng."
Discuss how to close this loophole.
Han Wuniang didn't know what Man Bao was thinking. She had to understand the confusion and told Man Bao what she had been suppressing. Then she happily pulled him outside the screen to talk.
In this short time, Bai Shan also established a basic friendship with Li Sanlang.
Knowing that they planned to manage the Zhouman farm by themselves, Li Sanlang said that he would ask someone to help take care of Pucun.
After all, a strong dragon does not suppress a local snake, and the Li family is not only a local snake in Yongzhou, but also a strong dragon.
After the conversation, Man Bao and Bai Shan left with a smile. Li Sanlang and Han Wuniang sent the person to the stairs and watched the person go downstairs before turning back to the room.
Li Sanlang called the waiter to the restaurant and said: "Their accounts will be recorded in my account. If someone sends some wine and food over, they will say it was from me."
The waiter agreed, bowed and left.
Han Wuniang said with a smile: "If I had known that they had booked our restaurant, they should have arranged it on the third floor. The view from here would be better."
Li Sanlang said: "It's too late this year, and it would be too much trouble for them to change. If they come to Yongzhou to celebrate the Lantern Festival next year, we will book a wing on the third floor for them."
Bai Shan, who was walking down the stairs side by side, took her hand and led her down. Then he turned around and asked, "What are you thinking about? You don't even look at your feet."
"I was thinking about how to fill in the loopholes in the enrollment of the Imperial Medical Office." She looked around and saw that there were many people around, and said, "I will tell you when I get out."
This time the two of them took Lao Zhoutou and they went to the street together. Man Bao and Bai Shan went to guess lantern riddles for them, while they went shopping by themselves first.
Man Bao specially lit the rabbit lantern that his father had taken a liking to, and after guessing the lantern riddles, he took the lantern in his hand. Seeing that Bai Shan had also guessed two lanterns, he walked back slowly with him, and took the lantern that Han Wuniang had asked her just now.
The matter is said.
"The Crown Prince and Mr. Yang are already discussing the allocation for the Imperial Medical Office every school year," Man Bao said, "I have seen the official document Xiao Yuan is getting from the Chongwen Hall. It not only includes the cost of teaching consumables, medicinal materials, etc.
, and there is also Jimi for students, that is to say, students who study medicine at the Imperial Medical Office not only do not spend any money, but they can also take home a portion of Jimi from the Department every month."
Bai Shan thought for a while and said: "This is to encourage children from poor families to study medicine."
Man Bao nodded.
"If we follow Han Wuniang's example and send her family's servants to study in the Imperial Medical Office, then the students trained by the imperial court and the Imperial Hospital with so much effort will end up in the private residences of their aristocratic families and powerful people. Then the original purpose of the establishment of the Imperial Medical Office will be lost.
Wouldn’t it be useless?”
Bai Shan pondered, "I'm afraid Han Wuniang is not the only one who has this idea. She doesn't know she's wrong, let alone others?"
Man Bao nodded, "We have to find a way to plug this loophole."
Man Bao smiled at the thought, "Speaking of which, I would like to thank her even more this time. If she hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have known they had such an idea."
Bai Shan: ...I'm afraid Han Wuniang won't be very happy.
But right now the other party doesn’t know anything.
The two of them went back carrying lanterns. Man Bao gave the rabbit lantern to her father, but her father changed hands and gave it to her mother. Man Bao, who was holding a lantern that Bai Shan had pushed over, paused and looked at his hand.
lantern.
Bai Shan saw it and smiled and said, "Since Auntie has it, you can take it yourself."
Man Bao can only hold it by himself.
Yin or the others also went to guess riddles. He used to guess riddles when he was at home, but he didn't like it. In order to please his grandmother, he just followed the crowd and guessed one or two. He didn't think there was any meaning in guessing riddles.
But now he looked at the lanterns on the lantern shed. If he guessed a riddle, he would get a lantern, and when he turned around, he could give the lantern away. He found it very interesting.
So I took Bai Erlang and Liu Huan to guess riddles together.
Of course, the main reason was that he guessed that Bai Erlang and Liu Huan would bring him lights.
But when Bai Erlang saw that he failed to guess several times in a row, he couldn't help but push him aside and go in person.
Bai Erlang chose a simple and easy lantern riddle. After guessing three lanterns in a row, he looked at Yin You, "This riddle is different from making a fuss. Do you have to be able to imagine?"
Yin Or: I don’t know.
But he was quite happy. One of the three riddles could always be guessed, and unlike Bai Erlang who chose riddles based on the lights, he quickly found his own pattern.
No matter whether the lamp hanging on the lamphouse is good-looking or ugly, he just looks at the riddle and guesses it. If he guesses correctly, he will take out the lamp.
He gave it to Zhou Lijun and others. If they didn't like it, he would give it to the children passing by. If they didn't dislike it, he would give it to them.
Zhou Lijun and Zhou Liru can also guess lantern riddles themselves, but they accept everyone who comes and take whatever is given to them. After a while, their hands are full and they turn around to sell. It doesn't matter whether it's four cents or five cents, as long as they can sell it.
Lao Zhoutou did not expect such an operation, so he followed Yin You with Zhou Lijun and others. He guessed the lamp and took it over, then turned around and sold it.
Qian:……
Man Bao and Bai Shan were both stunned, then looked at each other, rolled up their sleeves and stepped forward to help.
When it comes to guessing riddles, who can compare to these two?
It wasn't until the third watch that they were about to go home. When a few people came back to their senses, they saw that they had walked through several streets and basically visited all the lamp sheds in Yongzhou City.
After the third watch, the people on the street gradually dispersed. The lanterns that Yin You and Bai Erlang won for them were all sold to Lao Zhoutou, and they had almost sold them. Everyone took a bagful of copper coins to go home.
Zhou Tou said with a smile: "I'll buy you some sweet water when I get back."
Yin You talked a lot that night, and his throat was a little hoarse. He nodded repeatedly after hearing the words, and he really wanted to drink water.
So everyone went back to the inn.
Madam Liu and Mrs. Zheng had already returned from the restaurant. When Madam Liu heard the commotion, she came out and told Man Bao and Bai Shan: "Madam, let me tell you, after washing, go to bed and close the doors and windows so that you don't catch cold at night."
."
Then he said: "Also, the restaurant we are staying at today belongs to the Li family, so their family paid for all the food, drinks and food we had there tonight. The old lady asked the young master and Miss Man to keep it in mind so that they can return the favor next time."
Manbao yawned and agreed, deciding to give Han Wuniang a bottle of scar-removing ointment next time to eliminate the scars on her stomach.
